EBE Chapter 684 Three Weddings (4)
Chapter 684 Three Weddings (4)
The auspicious time has arrived.
Wujiu City witnessed an unprecedented grand occasion.
Above the sky, the nine-tiered cloud platform was filled with spectators.
Below, the city was brightly decorated with lanterns and colorful flowers.
Distinguished guests from all over the mainland, dressed in their finest attire, gathered together, and the air was filled with joy and anticipation.
The main venue for the wedding was set in the center of Wujiu City, on a vast square expanded by divine power.
Suddenly, rays of light appeared across the sky.
In the east, a magnificent wedding carriage, pulled by nine blue phoenixes, arrives amidst the clouds.
Inside the carriage was Lu Qingtong, dressed in a radiant wedding gown and wearing a dazzling star crown, and beside her stood Qin Jiyu, a handsome and gentle man in a dark red Hades robe.
"Look, Old Lu, your daughter!" The old patriarch of the Lei family said with envy.
He shook his head and sighed, "Ah, your Qing Tong has such good taste. Even when the Second Young Master Qin was crippled, she insisted on staying by his side... She's just as stubborn as my eldest daughter, but she's so much better than my eldest daughter."
The head of the Lu family knew that Old Lei was referring to Lei Jiao'er.
It has been almost three years since Lei Jiao'er was killed by Qin Tian, and Old Lei still cannot get over it.
"The dead cannot be brought back to life, Lao Lei, please accept my condolences."
Beside her, Lei Meng'er, the current head of the Lei family, also sighed and gently placed her hand on her father's arm.
“Father, try to look on the bright side. I heard that Brother Qin is now the King of the Underworld. I'll find a chance to ask him about it later. Maybe he knows something about Sister. Perhaps she has already been reincarnated and has a new life…”
"Who knows?" Old Master Lei smiled bitterly.
His beloved son, a genius, should not have ended up like this. How can he let this go?
Just then, a familiar yet unfamiliar excited voice suddenly rang out from not far away:
"Father……"
Old Master Lei was taken aback.
That voice... it sounds a bit like... Jiao'er?
He looked up abruptly and saw a ghostly figure standing not far away, gazing at him from afar.
That familiar smiling face, who else could it be but Lei Jiao'er?
Behind her stood eight imposing and dignified women. Upon seeing them, the old patriarch Lei's legs went weak, and he was filled with immense fear, almost kneeling down.
“Father, I am now working under the King of the Underworld. Today, I have come with the Eighth King of Qin to present gifts. We are spirits and cannot stay in the mortal realm for too long. We will return after presenting the gifts, but please do not worry.”
"Eh, eh!" Patriarch Lei nodded vigorously, staring in disbelief at the illusory figure before him. In his lifetime, he could actually see his daughter, his beloved child, again!
Jiao'er's soul was even plumper than when she died, indicating that she was doing well in the underworld.
The old father smiled with relief, his smile tinged with tears.
Lei Meng'er looked at Lei Jiao'er's soul in disbelief, her eyes red-rimmed: "Sister..."
“Sister, you must support the Lei family. I am doing well in the Underworld. The cycle of reincarnation has been established. I can choose to be reborn or continue to work for the Underworld. Don’t worry about me. If one day I get tired of life in the Underworld, I will choose to come back to this world.”
Lei Meng'er nodded emphatically as she listened to her sister's instructions, "I know, sister, I've remembered everything!"
Lei Jiao'er glanced longingly at her father and sister one last time, waved, and turned to say goodbye.
This is not a place where their souls can stay.
Cannons fired a salute in the city.
The west.
An exquisite painted boat arrived from the sky.
On the painted boat, Wei Yun was dressed in a smart groom's suit, looking elegant and handsome. Beside him, Song Yuzhi was dressed in a neat and gorgeous bright red wedding dress with star patterns, looking dashing and heroic. The purple star-patterned longsword at her waist added to her extraordinary demeanor.
"My Song family is truly blessed," said Elder Song Liyuan, the branch master of the Da Kun Star Pavilion, stroking his beard and nodding with satisfaction.
Beside him, Peng, the manager of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion and the head of the Phoenix Feather Kingdom's Star Pavilion branch, looked at his "family" who was showing off and felt so jealous he wanted to cry.
He was the one who met Miss Youyou and Young Master Jiyu first, and it was through his introduction that Miss Youyou formed such a deep bond with Xingji Pavilion. So why is it that in the end, it was this old guy Song Liyuan who climbed the social ladder?
Song Liyuan clearly saw the jealousy in Manager Peng's eyes, and he said smugly, "Who told you not to have a good-looking niece?"
Looking back, he thought that as a famous noblewoman in the capital, the best outcome for his niece, Song Yuzhi, would be to marry Xuanming, the head of the Xingji Pavilion. He never expected that his niece would have better judgment than him!
Thinking of this, he glanced fearfully at Xuanming, who was eating sunflower seeds beside him.
Their Star Pavilion's Grand Master actually ascended to the subcontinent.
Now that the two continents have merged, Miss Youyou's ties to the secondary continent are still deeper. Therefore, all of the Pavilion Master's personal relationships still need to be managed by his subordinates from the secondary continent... What a burden...
Xuanming, munching on melon seeds, watched the newlyweds and remarked with emotion, "Ah, I envy not the immortals, but the loving couple."
Song Liyuan and Lao Peng both looked at him, a lewd look on their faces: "Um, Pavilion Master, haven't you ever thought about taking Miss Youyou in?"
Xuanming shuddered in fright: "What are you saying!"
"Me, and Qin Zun? Do you think my existence is just a nuisance to you?"
Qin Zun?
It took Song Liyuan and Lao Peng a while to realize what was happening.
Wait, wasn't the Pavilion Master very arrogant before? What happened to him recently that he's suddenly so respectful to Miss Youyou?
south.
The sunlight and moonlight intertwine, transforming into a dazzling bridge of light.
Tutu has regained its magnificent and majestic form as a golden crow, its dark wings flowing with brilliant golden light, and its long tail feathers trailing behind colorful clouds.
On his broad back sat Little Moon, dressed in a dreamy white gauze dress, her face beaming with smiles.
As soon as they appeared, the Phoenix Clan erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
A hundred phoenixes sang in unison, playing a melodious wedding anthem for them.
The three newlyweds made their grand entrances in different ways, eventually converging on the high platform in the center of the square.
Auspicious clouds gather in the sky, automatically arranging themselves into various lucky patterns; magical flowers and herbs grow out of thin air, exuding fragrance; melodious divine music resounds from all directions, captivating the heart.
The flower girls were absolutely adorable and charmed everyone present.
The adorable little Feiyun and the mature little Jinchuan are the main flower girls.
They carried flower baskets, scattering colorful petals, looking adorable. Their mother, Mu Jing, stood at the very front of the Mud Legs Sect disciples, and all the disciples clapped vigorously until their palms turned red.
Little Tree Treasure and Little Living Corpse were also brought in to serve as flower girls.
The little tree was surrounded by a cluster of green leaves and countless glowing lights; the little zombie looked bewildered. Although he had regained his vitality, he still retained some of his zombie habits. He was stiffly holding the wedding ring box, which made him look strangely cute.
Qin Youyou did not sit in the main seat, but sat in a slightly forward position with her parents Qin Lie and Wei Jin, her maternal grandmother Wan Feiping, her grandfather Qin Zhengwu, and a group of relatives and friends, watching all this with a smile.
She concealed her aura, becoming like an ordinary person, an unremarkable member of the mortal world, blending into this earthly wedding.
The wedding ceremony was presided over by Wei Yeming, the "God of Knowledge," and was both solemn and warm.
Holding the jade slip, he surveyed the entire hall, his gaze slowly sweeping over each newlywed, finally settling on the vast sky and the endless guests. His voice was gentle yet possessed a unique penetrating power, clearly echoing in every corner of the world:
"The auspicious time has arrived, and this perfect match is made in heaven."
"Today, everything is renewed, and the world rejoices. We gather here in the Holy City of No Blame to witness three perfect unions, a truly unprecedented event."
He first looked at Qin Jiyu and Lu Qingtong, his eyes revealing a mixture of relief and emotion:
"Qin Jiyu, Lu Qingtong. One governs the underworld, restoring order and upholding benevolence; the other remains true to her heart, possessing discerning eyes and unwavering love. Through trials and tribulations, your love has grown stronger; through storms, your hearts have become clearer. Today, with the underworld as our witness and the Milky Way as our betrothal, we wish that in the years to come, you will be together through life and death, sharing both fortune and misfortune, and hand in hand, creating eternal peace."
Then, his gaze turned to Wei Yun and Song Yuzhi, filled with the loving and admiring gaze of an elder:
"Wei is a scholar, Song is a fish weaver. One is well-versed in poetry and literature, knowledgeable in the ways of the world, and gentle and refined like jade; the other is heroic and valiant, open-minded, and possesses both courage and a heart of music. The way of literature and martial arts is a balance of tension and relaxation; the ultimate state is the combination of strength and gentleness. May you two spend your lives with poetry and wine, walking hand in hand with swords, your writings becoming as gentle as silk, and composing a melody of unity amidst the hustle and bustle of life."
Finally, he looked at Baldy and Little Moon, his eyes filled with blessings:
"The golden crow crows, the white phoenix and the small moon. One is supremely yang and brilliant, radiant with boundless light; the other is supremely pure and gentle, flawless and immaculate. The sun and moon push each other, and light is born; yin and yang unite, and all things flourish. May your alliance be like the rising sun and the constant moon, shining eternally, dancing together in harmony, illuminating all the heavens."
Wei Yeming nodded slightly, his voice growing increasingly solemn and majestic, resonating with the laws of heaven and earth:
"Today, with heaven and earth as our mediator, all spirits as our witness, and the light of the creator god as our protector!"
"Wishing these three couples a long and harmonious marriage!"
May your affection be as unwavering as mountains and seas, and as eternally shining as the stars!
"From this day forward, we will be of one heart and one mind, support each other through thick and thin, and live out our promise to grow old together."
As soon as he finished speaking, the jade slip in his hand moved without wind, radiating golden light and transforming into countless ancient golden runes, which fluttered down onto the three couples, merging into their bodies and souls.
This is a blessing mantra condensed by the god of knowledge with divine power, containing the most beautiful blessing for marriage.
The entire venue was silent for a moment, then erupted in thunderous applause and cheers.
The three couples looked at each other and smiled, their eyes filled with deep emotion.
In the guest section, Ying Cancan was moved to tears.
"Waaaaah, their wedding was so beautiful!"
Fat Green Dragon shifted his position and leaned closer: "We weren't bad back then either."
Ying Cancan's emotions of being moved came to an abrupt halt. The moment she saw the fat man's greasy face, she almost fainted.
"roll!"
When they went to wipe out the Star Clan, this greasy, fat guy was always trying to curry favor with her. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore and yelled, "I don't want to have an ugly son with an ugly guy like you, give up!" She was about to kick him away when…
Her beloved grandson, Ying Linlin, arrived.
They arrived in great procession, riding on her remains.
Not only her grandson, but she also recognized the handsome guy next to him at a glance—it was her son!
She and her ex-husband, the son of that invincible, handsome azure dragon! Ying Qingming!
But to her surprise, Qingming's first words stunned her.
He said, "Mother, please have mercy on me; he's the father!"
Ying Cancan still doesn't understand how the Azure Dragon, once the most handsome man in all the realms, could have become so greasy.
She resolutely ordered that he could never touch a single scale of her again until he lost weight and returned to his original figure!
Fat Green Dragon whimpers, his wife really dislikes him.
Looking at the fresh and juicy peaches on the table, he swallowed hard.
Ah, these peaches are all the fruit of the big peach tree in the owner's QQ Farm. The peaches that have been growing for thousands of years have finally borne fruit.
No, he needs to lose weight, he'll endure it!
Do not eat!
On the stage, the wedding ceremony was completed.
The heavens and earth resonated, and auspicious energy cascaded down like a waterfall, bathing the entire area.
All the guests felt refreshed and invigorated.
"Such abundant auspicious energy! Quick! Quick! Let's soak up some of the joy!"
Everyone immediately sat cross-legged, drawing this auspicious energy into their bodies, and some insights, more or less, arose in the hearts of each guest.
Only Fat Azure Dragon remained, grieving alone.
Qin Youyou turned her head and keenly noticed the amusing atmosphere between him and Ying Cancan.
She leaned closer and took out a business card.
“Brother Qinglong, I have a friend named Danxie Old Ghost. Why don’t you try contacting him? He has a lot of pills, maybe even some slimming pills.”
"Really?" Fat Green Dragon's eyes lit up.
"Really." Qin Youyou touched her nose.
However, many of the pills that Danxie Laogui used had side effects, such as the Swimming Pill and the Flying Pill... But these side effects were ineffective on her, and it was hard to say whether they would be effective on the Fat Azure Dragon.
Fat Green Dragon was overjoyed. He had also considered that his master's words could become law, and a single thought could make him thinner...
However, if divine power is abused, it will inevitably change the cause and effect of this world. After regaining his memories, the master rarely took action again.
The world has its own balance and its own rules of operation, and she is unwilling to interfere too much.
Therefore, he couldn't bring himself to make those requests.
Perhaps, it's time for his relationship with Can Can to be put to the test.
He will show CanCan his determination.
Fat Green Dragon put away Danxie Old Ghost's business card, his fighting spirit ignited.
Next comes the gift-giving segment.
Various factions and numerous guests presented lavish gifts that had been prepared beforehand. Rare treasures, divine weapons, miraculous elixirs... a dazzling array, gleaming and piled high, any one of which would have caused a sensation in the outside world.
However, for the three newlyweds on stage, these worldly treasures, though precious, held little meaning for them.
The real highlight is the gifts that carry unique sentiments.
The first to step forward was King Qin, the Eighth King of the Underworld.
What they presented was not a physical object, but a scroll of ghostly contracts emitting a faint, eerie soul fire.
Lei Jiao'er spoke on behalf of the Kings of Qin, her voice ethereal yet clear: "The Underworld hereby presents a great gift to Lady Lu Qingtong, granting her the privilege of traveling between the Underworld and the mortal realm, allowing her to freely enter and exit the Yin and Yang realms, and bestowing upon her a thousand-mile-long sea of other shore flowers as her eternal private property in the Underworld, where the flowers will never wither."
This gift bestows upon Lu Qingtong honor in the underworld, signifying that the underworld recognizes her as the true Queen of the Underworld.
