Chapter 3783 Floyd Is Here
“G-Gloria, don’t you cry! You’re making me feel terrible.” When Heptino saw Gloria’s red-rimmed eyes, he panicked and felt frustrated for some reason. “You foolish boy. These are tears of joy.”
Gloria wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. She then straightened Heptino’s robe and brushed away the dust on his shoulder, chiding, “You’re all grown up, yet you still don’t know how to take care of yourself. I can’t help but worry about you! Now that I’m married, I won’t be able to look after you like before. You should take good care of yourself. Don’t drink without eating anything; it’s bad for your stomach. Refrain from taking too many of those pills, too. They contain cinnabar, which isn’t good for your body.”
Tears rolled down Gloria’s cheeks “uncontrollably” as she reminded Heptino about mundane things.
“You should hurry and find a woman who will treat and love you sincerely. Only then will I be able to stop worrying. Today is my big day. You should cheer up, okay? All right, I should greet my guests now. Take care!”
After choking those words out, she turned around and ran away. Heptino felt empty as he watched Gloria’s leaving figure. It was as if he had just lost something.
His chest felt heavy, and no matter how many deep breaths he took, the discomfort would not go away. “Gloria… Gloria…” he mumbled as the lump in his throat grew bigger.
Wanting to wash away the mess in his mind, he lifted the wine bottle to his lips. Yet at the thought of Gloria’s words earlier, he lowered the bottle.
From where he sat, he could see Gloria and Primo toasting the guests in the distance. The sight brought tears to his eyes and made him feel even worse.
He was like a child whose favorite toy was taken away—frustrated yet helpless. Throughout the entire wedding, Heptino acted nothing like himself. Like a soulless man, he remained in a daze almost the whole time.
Countless horse carriages were parked orderly outside the main gate of Void Sect as guests arrived one after another. Not only were the streets covered in red carpets and rose petals, but the trees were also adorned with colorful ribbons.
The sounds of drums, horns, and fireworks added to the festive mood of this grand wedding ceremony. On top of that, the cheers of the crowd were so thunderous that it felt like the entire nation could hear them.
As Floyd took in this scene, his face turned grim. After he was heavily injured and thrown into the drain last time, he returned to Bluesky Sect in a pathetic state.
At the moment, he had recovered fully and even improved his skills following a few days of rest. Having received the news that Gloria and Primo were getting married on this day, he specially made his way here to check out the celebration.
He wasn’t sure if he was doing this out of bitterness or unwillingness to accept the reality.
Thundera and Hansel stood behind him, though they weren’t really keen on coming to Void Sect.
They knew they would meet their ends if Santino and Gloria discovered them.
However, they had no choice but to accompany Floyd since he insisted on coming. After all, they believed that he was Levi’s favorite disciple.
If Floyd got killed right under their noses, they would incur Levi’s wrath, and Zerach would be the first to lose his life in that case.
“Floyd, you have to hold yourself back later. There’s no way we can fight the elites of Void Sect on our own,” Hansel pleaded desperately.
Floyd merely sneered before heading inside. They had disguised themselves, so they entered the venue smoothly after handing over their gifts.
