At the same time, Yang Xiao took out the red scroll that he had seized from Duan Jiqing. This item was not a magic artifact but a gift from the Huagubiao Tower Master to Sheng Jingxuan of Yiling Academy, intended to be publicly read by the witness, Duan Jiqing, during the wedding climax.
The scroll was filled with nonsense, but the core message was twofold: first, in the future, Yiling Academy will form an alliance with Bone Painting Tower; second, the Tower Master has decided to graciously accept Dean Sheng Jingxuan as his adopted son.
Yang Xiao was also unceremonious, tearing the scroll into pieces before scattering them toward the sky. The red fragments slowly drifted down, settling on Yang Xiao's head and shoulders like a rain of blood, creating a scene with a shattered sense of beauty.
Seemingly impulsive, this was actually all premeditated. Yang Xiao had rehearsed this process for a full minute before emerging, aiming to gain the maximum benefit from this opportunity.
