Chapter 683 Three Weddings (3)
The top powers on the mainland have goals that go far beyond simply observing the ceremony.
What they longed for even more was to take this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet the legendary creator god.
Even just becoming a familiar face would be an immeasurable opportunity for all parties involved.
Therefore, as early as when the wedding news first spread, the two most upscale restaurants in Wujiu City, "Black Tiger Restaurant" and "Azure Dragon Hotel", were already fully booked by bigwigs from all sides and stayed there for quite some time.
These important figures, who normally could shake the entire continent with a stomp of their feet, were now like devout pilgrims, eagerly anticipating and racking their brains to find any possible opportunity to encounter the Creator God.
They had already viewed the crystal ball containing Qin Youyou's image countless times through various channels, and countless painters had also taken up their brushes to copy her appearance onto precious scrolls.
This new, magnificent continent, and the image of the creator god, have long been deeply etched in the hearts of all people.
However, to their dismay, they waited in Wujiu City for many days without even catching a glimpse of a piece of her clothing.
"Will that person... actually show up?" Someone couldn't contain themselves and asked in a low voice to an elderly man with white hair and beard, who looked like a fairy.
The old man was playing chess with a girl of ordinary appearance.
The restaurant staff treated the two men with utmost respect, leading everyone to speculate that they must be extraordinary individuals, perhaps even relatives or friends of the Creator God.
Yin Chunbai took a sip of tea, his expression inscrutable: "Fate is something you can only encounter, not seek."
Saying it means not saying it.
The person who asked the question left dejectedly.
Yin Chunbai glanced at the ordinary-looking girl opposite him.
"Ahem... Senior, no, young friend, are you really not going to meet them?"
Youyou pressed down a black piece: "Old Yin, you know what they're thinking. As for these new forces, I either meet with them all or I don't meet with any of them. I can't be biased."
"Yes Yes Yes."
Yin Chunbai hurriedly replied.
But secretly, I was delighted. Ah, it's best to latch onto someone's coattails as soon as possible.
As one of the first to latch onto the coattails of his senior, his strength has now risen all the way to the Great Luo True Immortal Realm.
That's what I call a stroke of luck.

The auspicious time, calculated jointly by Da Huang and Zhao Xun, was approaching the next day.
Amidst the hustle and bustle of wedding preparations, Qin Lie was filled with worry.
My wife disappeared early in the morning.
With the auspicious time for the wedding fast approaching, Ji Yu's mother and Wei Yun's younger sister are unable to attend. What should they do?
He hurriedly found his daughter, Qin Youyou, and his usually calm demeanor was now filled with anxiety.
"Youyou, your mother is missing!"
Qin Youyou remained calm: "Don't panic, my mother won't be bullied."
Qin Lie choked. Of course he knew Jin'er wouldn't be bullied by others; he was just afraid that Jin'er would bully everyone else.
Especially since there were quite a few beastmen among the guests, Jin'er used to crave Baldy, and now she wonders if she'll crave tigers and leopards too.
"Youyou, hurry up and find your mother. Most of the remaining star races in the universe have already been devoured and purified by your mother... uh, she's completely absorbed. Don't you think... we should find an opportunity to fully restore her sanity?"
He paused, a look of helplessness and amusement on his face: "Jiyu's wedding is just around the corner. What if Jin'er sees a guest at the wedding who she finds 'appetizing' and can't resist... cough, the scene might be difficult to handle."
The thought of Wei Jin possibly stuffing a sect elder or dragon clan elder into his mouth like a snack sent chills down Qin Lie's spine.
"Cough cough." Qin Youyou coughed.
Qin Lie was taken aback. "Even someone of your high rank can cough?"
"Cough cough!" Qin Youyou coughed even louder.
Qin Lie: "Even the Creator God catches a cold?"
"Cough cough cough cough!" Qin Youyou was so frustrated by her attempts to signal that she almost cramped up.
Just then, he was hit on the head with a flick of the wrist.
"Not easy to handle? I'll handle you then!"
Qin Lie felt a sharp pain in his head; that familiar voice…
He turned around in surprise and saw Wei Jin standing behind him with her eyebrows raised.
She wore a neat scarlet dress, her hair was styled in a neat bun, and her eyes were clear and bright. Where was there any trace of her former ignorant and crazy appearance?
At that moment, she stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at him with a murderous look.
"You, Qin Lie!" Wei Jin shouted, his voice booming, "You've been talking about me behind my back with your daughter? Huh?"
She was furious. As soon as she regained her senses, she thought of all the things Qin Lie had tricked her into doing while she was confused. She wanted nothing more than to grab his ear right now and go to his room to teach him a lesson.
"Want to ride on my head? In your next life!" Wei Jin cursed angrily.
Qin Lie blushed; only he knew what she was cursing.
He hunched over, looking incredibly domineering in front of strangers, but in front of his wife, he was as timid as a quail.
He clutched his head, gasping for breath, "Jin'er? You...you're better?! When did you..."
Wei Jin rolled her eyes at him, annoyed, and snorted, "Youyou helped me fully recover this morning! I was even trying to surprise you and secretly prepare for the wedding, and you come here to badmouth me!"
Qin Lie was both amused and exasperated. Ignoring the slight pain in his forehead, he grabbed his wife's hand, so excited he was almost incoherent: "It's alright, that's good! I just... didn't know! What a surprise! This is such a wonderful surprise!"
Wei Jin said in a low voice, "Oh dear, it's more like a fright."
Qin Lie said coquettishly, "No, I'm just telling the truth."
Wei Jin glanced down: "Hmph, let's see how long you can stand there tonight, then we'll know how much of it is real."
Qin Lie shuddered.
Oh no, the good days are over, and the fear of being dominated by my wife has returned.
Qin Youyou watched her parents flirting and teasing each other without a care in the world, and got goosebumps all over her body.
She raised her hand, "Um, could you please be more mindful? I'm not a child anymore."
The couple froze.
They all slowly turned their heads.
Qin Lie: "How much of what you understood?"
Qin Youyou: "I understood everything."
Wei Jin's face immediately turned bright red!
In her complete and logical memory, Youyou was only ten years old!
How did my daughter grow up so fast!
"Alright, alright." Qin Youyou rubbed her temples. "Dad, Mom, the wedding is about to start. Shouldn't you two go change into more formal attire?"
Wei Jin was still in shock. "My God, my daughter is already so grown up, and my son is even married..."
It all feels like a dream.
"Who says otherwise?" Qin Lie remarked.
The years that were stolen were not just Jin'er's fault.
"Let's go, let's go, don't miss the auspicious time."
Watching her parents leave with sighs of emotion, Qin Youyou smiled warmly and brightly as sunlight streamed into the courtyard.
The gloom has finally completely dissipated, and this family has ushered in a truly fulfilling moment.
