Dragon Raja: I practiced Naruto ninjutsu next to Lu Mingfei.

“I am Spanish,” Isabel said.

"Holy crap, you two speak such good Chinese!" David Chiang stared in disbelief at the two beautiful women.

“They studied at Confucius Institutes overseas,” Gu Ran explained.

"Dad, the people on the shore are being blocked and can't get off." Bai Shanglu pointed to the shore, where his brothers who came with him were being prevented from boarding the speedboat.

"I didn't expect that having more people would become a burden," Jiang Dawei cursed under his breath, then turned the boat around, preparing to leave immediately.

"Wait for me! Wait for me!"

Suddenly, shouts came from the shore. The people on the speedboat looked in the direction of the sound and saw a person riding a shared bicycle, pedaling hard. The ordinary yellow bicycle was as fast as a motorcycle. It was as if the bicycle had turned into a motorcycle.

"Zhou Minhao, where have you been? Why are you only arriving now!" someone shouted from the shore.

Zhou Minhao didn't answer. He brought the shared bicycle to a sudden stop, threw it aside, grabbed someone's shoulder, and leaped up, stepping on the shoulders of the crowd to move forward, just like the kind of light-footed kung fu in martial arts TV dramas.

He quickly crossed the crowds inside and outside the cordon and reached the dock.

But by this time the wooden dock had been destroyed, and only some large pieces of driftwood were floating on the water. Zhou Minhao took a breath and used his light-footed skill to walk on the water, stepping on the driftwood to get onto the speedboat.

"Wow, awesome!" Gu Ran led the applause, and Victoria and Isabel followed suit. Bai Shanglu also joined in the applause, caught up in the atmosphere.

"Thank you, thank you all for coming." Zhou Minhao clasped his hands in a gesture of respect. "Dr. Bai, I'll accompany you on this journey."

"Boss Zhou is truly a man of few words, and when he does reveal his true abilities, he's not a real man at all!"

Bai Shanglu glanced at Zhou Minhao. To be honest, he was wearing a well-fitting suit, but he hadn't broken a sweat while running, and his shoes hadn't gotten wet from his light skimming of water. Clearly, he was quite skilled in martial arts.

Zhou Minhao smiled and said, "People and the world are the same; they have many facets. What you see of a person or the world is often just one facet."

"Then why did you ride a shared bike here?" Bai Shanglu asked. "You're a big boss in this area, aren't you?"

Zhou Minhao explained, "I came from Suzhou, but there was a traffic jam on the way, so I had to scan a QR code to rent a shared bike."

At this point, David Chiang started driving the speedboat and drove off with a 'putt-putt' sound.

"Who are these three?" Zhou Minhao looked at Gu Ran and the other two. He instinctively felt that these three people had an aura that was not that of ordinary people.

Each of the three men was carrying a bag, and of course, he was also carrying a large bag, which contained unusual items.

He then keenly sensed that what those three people were carrying in their bags was probably not anything normal.

"Oh, I heard about the wedding of the century, so I came to join in the fun. I'm already engaged and preparing for the wedding." Gu Ran held up her hand to show them the ring on her finger.

As for Victoria and Isabel, they were also there to observe an Eastern wedding and would be writing a report on their cultural exploration back at school.

Gu Ran had actually heard Nuwa mention Zhou Minhao before. He was in charge of the Zhou family's business and usually traveled between Suzhou and Kunshan.

Even after hearing the explanations from these three strangers, Zhou Minhao's doubts remained unresolved.

Gu Ran continued, "Don't worry, I'm on Grandpa Jiang's side. What kind of son-in-law gets married without informing his father-in-law? That's impolite! If there's a fight, we can help out!"

"Hahaha, brother, you're to my liking!" Because the speedboat was very loud, David Chiang shouted from behind, "But you guys can skip the fight, I don't need your help, after all, you're guests, but this is my home turf!"

Bai Shanglu kept his eyes on Susanna on the shore. In his opinion, since Zhou Minhao was able to jump up, Susanna should be able to as well.

But she just stood quietly on the shallow beach, the setting sun shining on her face, giving her a lonely beauty. However, her eyes were indifferent as she looked at the group of people, as if she were looking at a few small fish struggling on the shore in the face of fate.

The motorboat headed towards the center of the lake, and after about twenty minutes, it suddenly got stuck in a lotus field.

Moreover, a fog suddenly rose up around them, turning everything white and obscuring everyone's vision.

"Why are there still so many lotus leaves this season?" Victoria asked, puzzled.

It is autumn now, and the lotus flowers have long since faded, but these lotus leaves are still lush and green, just like in the height of summer, with endless green lotus leaves stretching to the sky.

"Is this a new variety from late autumn? my country's agricultural development is amazing!" Gu Ran said proudly.

Bai Shanglu thought to himself, "This is clearly not the time to flaunt national pride. Where would a lotus leaf be 1.7 meters tall? It's obviously not logical!"

Zhou Minhao glanced at Gu Ran, then took the oar and used the lotus leaves at the bow of the boat to clear a path.

After sailing for a while, the boat came to a complete stop. The engine was still running, but no matter how much oil Old Man Jiang added, the boat wouldn't move, as if something was holding it tightly in place.

Just then, a scraping sound came from the bottom of the boat. Isabel glanced at the gunwale and immediately exclaimed, "Crabs! Crabs! Lots of crabs are holding this boat in place!"

Bai Shanglu and Jiang Dawei have lived in Yangcheng Lake for a long time and know that this is a phenomenon called "crab surge".

Crabs, relatively primitive creatures, exhibit strange behaviors during their breeding season that even biologists cannot explain. Some crabs will cross continents in large groups, even though they would die of thirst if there were no water along the way, yet they still go without hesitation.

Wild crabs in Yangcheng Lake will gather together and block small boats from leaving. Some people say that this is because the crabs are afraid that the boats will enter their breeding grounds.

"Damn it, anyone who gets in my way dies!" David Chiang picked up his oar, ready to fight the crab.

"Old Man Jiang, please calm down." Zhou Minhao took out an invitation from the lining of his suit. Of all the people on the ship, he was the only one who had been invited to the wedding; the others were all illegal immigrants.

He threw the invitation into the water, and the bright red invitation burst into flames the moment it hit the water.

Soon, the bright red invitation was burned to ashes and sank into the water.

At the same time, the crabs that had been huddled together to prevent the boat from moving suddenly scattered, and the speedboat regained its power.

"Wow, how amazing!" Gu Ran immediately clapped his hands and showed off to Isabel, "See? This is the Taoist magic of our ancient Eastern country!"

"awesome!"

Wow, amazing!

Victoria and Elizabeth were very supportive and joined in the applause.

In fact, they all sensed the flow of the surrounding elements and judged that this might be a kind of spiritual power.

Bai Shanglu naturally didn't believe in any Taoist magic, so he asked Zhou Minhao in a low voice, "What's going on?"

"That's a door built with the power of truth, and the invitation is the key to open the wedding hall."

"What is the True Word Technique?" Bai Shanglu continued to ask.

"It's complicated to explain, but it's basically a special power formed through language or writing based on consciousness. It's also called the power of words." Zhou Minhao glanced at Gu Ran and the other two behind him. "It's not wrong to call it Taoist magic. Many mysterious phenomena recorded in history are the true words observed by humans."

Bai Shanglu was secretly surprised. He hadn't expected Zhao Xuzhen to know Taoist magic. What about his wife, Jiang Wanzhi? Did she also know Taoist magic?

But no matter what, he had to save his wife, even if it meant risking his life.

As the boat left the lotus field, we heard leisurely music.

“This is Mozart’s ‘Ave Maria’s’,” Isabelle recognized the song title immediately.

"What is the content of the Eucharist?" Gu Ran asked.

“This is a hymn that speaks of the beginning of Jesus’ life, his death, and how believers complete their lives with Jesus by his side,” Isabel explained.

"Pah! A wedding with both life and death, how unlucky!" David Chiang spat.

Zhou Minhao stood at the bow of the boat, his hands behind his back, looking ahead, while Jiang Dawei was at the stern, driving the speedboat.

Both men exuded murderous intent, as if a great battle was about to begin.

"The three of you, I hope you are truly my friends, otherwise my Zhou family of China will certainly not let you off the hook in the future." Zhou Minhao turned around and warned coldly.

"I really just brought two classmates to watch the fun," Gu Ran said innocently.

At this moment, the thick white fog suddenly dissipated, revealing a floating platform composed of dozens of painted boats.

Chapter 594 It turns out it was true love!

The painted boats were combined to form a spacious platform.

This is the wedding scene.

"Just because you have a few pleasure boats doesn't mean you can brag about it being a wedding of the century! Pshaw!" David Chiang said disdainfully, clearly unhappy that Zhao Xuzhen was his son-in-law.

"Wow, a chain of ships! It reminds me of Zhou Yu's burning of the Red Cliffs." Gu Ran excitedly told the two girls about the story of the Red Cliffs.

This made Bai Shanglu think that this young master was indeed showing off with a girl. But if he said he was getting married, then which of the two girls would be the bride?

Both of these foreign girls are just as beautiful as his wife, Jiang Wanzhi.

Of course, in his heart, his wife will always be the most beautiful.

At this moment, the group from the speedboat boarded the painted boat at the very edge, and the waiters swarmed around them, eagerly serving Zhou Minhao and the two girls.

There's no other reason than that Zhou Minhao was dressed in the best and most expensive clothes, while the two foreign women were beautiful and had extraordinary temperaments, clearly indicating that their families were either rich or noble.

As for Gu Ran, Bai Shanglu, and Jiang Dawei, who were disguised, they were left out in the cold, since none of the three of them had invitations and their appearance and clothing were quite ordinary.

Bai Shanglu was very good at handling things and immediately understood the waiter's mindset.

So he slipped two thousand yuan to each of the waiters around him, saying that he, Old Man Jiang, and Gu Ran were all Zhou Minhao's friends, and that they were just there to see what the wedding of the century looked like, and that they wouldn't cause any trouble.

As expected, "money can make anything happen, but without money, nine out of ten things will be in vain." After using money to pave the way, the waiters immediately beamed and hurriedly welcomed everyone inside.

Only then did everyone realize that this so-called wedding of the century was actually quite ordinary. Apart from the magnificent combination of the painted boats, the surrounding decorations were no different from those of an ordinary family's wedding.

"It's far inferior to the setup your boss made at Meiji Shrine," Gu Ran whispered in Isabel's ear.

Isabel was stunned. Lu Mingfei was having a wedding at Meiji Shrine? How come she didn't know? Who was the bride?

She seemed to vaguely remember that Caesar had sent a bounty to the Night's Watch this spring, hoping to rent the right to use Meiji Shrine for his wedding.

Could it be that the "boss" Gu Ran was referring to is actually Caesar?

Bai Shanglu led everyone to sit down at his classmates' table, and then he observed the people who had come to attend the wedding today.

Old Man Jiang said, "They are all our distant relatives, people we don't usually visit, but they've come here today with such a shameless attitude. The Zhao family couldn't invite me, but the bride's family can't be without relatives, so they called these aunts and uncles to make up the numbers."

"Didn't the groom's relatives come either?" Gu Ran asked after looking around.

Bai Shanglu looked around and indeed didn't see any of the man's relatives, but he did have a large number of bodyguards.

"Dad, what's the plan next?" Bai Shanglu asked Jiang Dawei. He hadn't planned the details of the operation when he came, so he was a little at a loss now.

David Chiang said, "Who cares? Let's ruin the wedding first. You only verbally divorced a few days ago. These days, divorce isn't that simple. If the auntie at the civil affairs window doesn't persuade you three, five, or seven times, you still won't get divorced. Besides, you haven't even received your divorce certificates yet!"

"In short, this wedding is neither proper nor legal. Let's just take Wanzhi away and see what these people can do!" the old man said with great bravado!

“Alright, you guys go first, I’ll follow up from the side.” Zhou Minhao agreed to the plan, then looked at Gu Ran and the other two.

"The three of us are the atmosphere team, we're in charge of yelling '666' and we can occasionally help you guys throw beer bottles and launch surprise attacks!" Gu Ran said, patting his chest.

“I’m pretty accurate at throwing things,” Victoria said, raising her hand with a look of eager anticipation.

Isabel then picked up a bottle of beer and asked, "Should I pour the beer out before throwing it?"

Hybrids possess dragon blood and are inherently driven by destructive desires.
