However, others held a different view.

Upon Kang Shi’s arrival, they sensed that the wedding would become much more animated.

Regarding Ziluo, the youngest daughter of the Clan Leader of True Martial Race, who was initially engaged to Kang Shi and now married to Kang Yan, there lingered a question of how Kang Shi might feel about it. Perhaps he was unwilling to accept the situation.

Yet, Kang Shi displayed little emotion.

He remained in serene composure, treating the event like any other bystander, as if it bore no relevance to him.

The Medicine Sect disciple overseeing the medicinal field sidled over with a furtive expression. “Did it work?”

Having reaped numerous benefits, his perspective on Kang Shi had undergone a significant shift.

People no longer regarded Kang Shi as a good-for-nothing. His past as a prodigious youth set him apart, showcasing abilities beyond the reach of others—such as cultivating spirit herbs or aspiring to refine pills.

Not everyone possessed the skill to refine pills.

Kang Shi’s interest in it suggested a degree of confidence, and the Medicine Sect disciple believed it could indeed be achieved.

Wouldn’t life improve if he secured the first opportunity to inspect and discuss potential cooperation?

“Okay,” Gu Chaoyan replied, handing him a vial of medicine. “This is for you. If you find it beneficial, come to me, and we can discuss further.”

“Good brother, I knew you wouldn’t disappoint!” The Medicine Sect disciple beamed.

As the two conversed discreetly,

Kang Yan, clad in red attire, approached. “Kang Shi, you’ve also graced us with your presence.”

“She’s fine. Don’t worry. Even though the True Martial Race is reluctant to wed Ziluo to you, I’ll ensure she is well-treated. A beauty like Ziluo deserves nothing less,” Kang Yan assured.

Following those words, Gu Chaoyan caught another disdainful look.

He chuckled. “Stolen goods are always deemed more precious. I have faith in you.”

Kang Yan shot him a hostile glance.

In public, Kang Yan maintained a gracious smile, treating Kang Shi as if he were the lesser party.

“It’s quite audacious,” remarked the Medicine Sect disciple.

“Some people are like that. They possess so little and never appreciate anything good, constantly trying to appropriate valuable things for themselves. They abandon them when they find something better elsewhere. We don’t want such things. It’s better that they’re gone,” Gu Chaoyan asserted seriously.

“What’s wrong with you? How dare you speak that way about Ziluo?” Someone overheard and voiced their displeasure.

“Ziluo? Who’s talking about Ziluo? She’s getting married, isn’t she? We’re discussing keeping pets, discussing what types are suitable and which are not,” Gu Chaoyan clarified with seriousness.

“You…” Accusations of mocking Ziluo surfaced.

Unbeknownst to him, Kang Shi had transformed.

His sharp tongue and changed demeanor marked a departure from his previous self.

“Come on, let’s talk about pet beasts,” Gu Chaoyan insisted earnestly.

Yet, it wasn’t a member of the Kang family who responded.

Instead, the leader of the True Martial Race approached, lifting Gu Chaoyan and declaring, “How dare you show up here? Ziluo has broken off the engagement with you, so you should be aware of the situation, or else…”
