Chapter 159: Marriage
After December, it was the new year.
Godfiends visited each other as a new year tradition. It was a joyous occasion. In fact, many Godfiends didn’t care about the new year festivities, but the Godfiends stationed at city passes were different. They might die in battle at any ti, so they paid special attention to New Year’s Eve. After 800 years, Godfiends at city passes had made it a tradition to visit each other and celebrate the new year together.
“It’s really lively during the new year.” ng Chuan and Liu Qiyue walked along North River Pass’s streets. Many hawkers had set up stalls along the streets, and many people were performing acrobatics. People wore their best clothes as they celebrated.
“North River Pass’s population is slightly lower than Eastcalm Prefecture, but the atmosphere during the new year is more vibrant,” praised ng Chuan with a smile.
The two walked alongside each other.
“Ah Chuan, we’ve been here for more than a year. When do you plan on getting married?” asked Liu Qiyue softly, her face slightly red.
ng Chuan was stunned. How could Qiyue take the initiative to ask such matters? Even ng Chuan felt that he was silly for forgetting!
“Qiyue, didn’t we agree on this?” ng Chuan imdiately held Liu Qiyue’s hand and coaxed her. “After we gain a foothold in North River Pass, we can get married. We have fought two tis in North River Pass, and we achieved great victories both tis. Especially in the last battle, I killed a few demon monarchs like Demon Monarch Lion. Now, who doesn’t have faith in ? Since we have a stable footing, we can get married imdiately.”
“Get married imdiately?” Liu Qiyue’s face turned scarlet. She imdiately said, “I’m not that anxious.”
“I am. How can I not be anxious?” ng Chuan shook his head. “We have to write a letter to Dad and the rest imdiately. We’ll let Dad and the rest set a specific date. After all, we have to discuss such important matters with Dad and the others.”
Liu Qiyue smiled and nodded. “Alright, let’s discuss it with Dad and the rest.” She was feeling sweet right now.
Finally...
She was finally getting married to Ah Chuan!
...
ng Chuan and Liu Qiyue sent a letter to Eastcalm Prefecture. ng Dajiang and Liu Yebai were overjoyed when they received the letter. They had been waiting for this day for a long ti. However, it was not appropriate for them to rush the couple since they were defending North River Pass from demons.
Soon, the date was set. It was to happen on 26th January, a particularly joyous day for marriage based on the almanac.
...
26th January.
ng Chuan was alone on the bed.
“Today is the day of my wedding.” ng Chuan smiled when he saw no one beside him. This was because Liu Qiyue had moved to another manor last night, where Liu Yebai stayed temporarily.
ng Chuan had requested a North River Pass Godfiend to bring his family from Eastcalm Prefecture on a giant bird. He and Liu Qiyue were extrely important to North River Pass, so they couldn’t leave as they pleased. It wasn’t a big deal for ordinary Godfiends to leave temporarily. North River Pass was 6,500 kiloters away from Eastcalm Prefecture. It was too far. Many guests couldn’t co by themselves. They had to be escorted via flying mounts.
The North River Pass’s flying mount was a third Firmant demon monarch. After being controlled by Archean Mountain completely, it was very loyal! It was large, and it had a wingspan of over 100 feet. It had a very wide back, allowing ng Dajian, Liu Yebai, several ng family mbers, Liu Yebai’s good friend, and Ge Yu—Mirror Lake Dao Academy’s dean—to ride upon it.
“Chuan’er, hurry up. There’s still a lot of things to do today.” The fat ng Dajiang was very anxious. He dragged ng Chuan to a group of won.
ng Chuan smiled and obediently put on his groom’s gown. The won put so makeup on him, to which he said, “Don’t make it too thick.”
“Don’t worry, Lord ng. Don’t worry.”
“Lord ng, your skin is very good. You’re very handso.”
The won were extrely excited. This was the first ti they were involved in a marriage between two Godfiends.
The groom wore a white silk robe, but the outer robe was much more complicated. There were many tassels and accessories. Godfiends usually wore simple robes. If not, a robe with dozens of tassels and accessories would take them too long to wear during warti. Now, ng Chuan wasn’t in a rush. He allowed the won to dress him. He even wore red boots.
Even his hair was combed backward neatly. There wasn’t a single strand of ssy hair at his forehead, and he wore a golden crown. This was the first ti ng Chuan had worn a crown since he was young.
After spending more than an hour, the won finally stopped in satisfaction.
ng Chuan walked out of the house. There were quite a number of people in the yard outside. Zhang Yunhu, Fan Cheng, the other Godfiends, the ng family clansn, Dean Ge Yu, and company waited outside.
“Color surprised.” Fan Cheng was eating so snacks when he saw ng Chuan walk out. His eyes widened imdiately. “What a handso young master.”
ng Chuan gave him a warning look.
“Quite the red face, I must say. You are definitely covered in quite a bit of rouge.” Shi Xiu couldn’t help but laugh. He was amused.
“Good, good. It’s pretty good,” echoed Zhang Yunhu.
“I watched ng Chuan, and Liu Qiyue grow up. Liu Qiyue often visited Mirror Lake Dao Academy to look for ng Chuan,” said Ge Yu, the ng family clansn beside him. “I also watched them head to Archean Mountain together. Now that they are getting married, I’m very happy that I can attend their wedding. I’m glad my disciple still thinks of as his master.”
“It’s not noon yet, and you’re already half drunk. Don’t drink too much. You can drink as much as you want tonight,” said a ng family elder.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry. I’m not drunk at all. I’m still sober.” Ge Yu’s face was flushed red. He was a drunkard and loved alcohol. His joy today just made him drink more.
...
ng Chuan chatted with everyone for a while.
“It’s ti,” shouted ng Dajiang imdiately. “Chuan’er, hurry up. It’s ti to receive the bride.”
“Receive the bride?” ng Chuan imdiately stood up.
“Lord ng, co, co. Wear the red flower.” Three won ran over and tied a red flower to ng Chuan’s chest. It added to the joyous vibes.
ng Chuan obediently followed.
After a while, the wedding entourage set off. ng Chuan rode a tall horse, and the entourage played music along the way. The sound of firecrackers filled the air, and many people on the streets were watching.
“Two Godfiends are getting married?”
“Is that Lord ng who killed several demon monarchs?”
The people at North River Pass watched from afar as the groom rode on his horse.
To begin with, ng Chuan was not bad-looking. He had condensed an Essence Soul and cultivated his body. Be it his looks or bearing, he was extraordinary. Many won couldn’t help but blush when they saw him. They thought to themselves, If they were to marry such a handso young master, they would probably be smiling in their dreams. Perhaps only a female Godfiend was worthy of Lord ng.
...
About 2.5 kiloters away from ng Chuan’s residence was the largest restaurant in North River Pass, White Cloud Restaurant. Today, White Cloud Restaurant’s ninth floor had been booked.
On the restaurant’s top floor, a gray-robed elder stood guard outside the private room. There was only one person inside.
A cyan-robed woman stood inside the room. Her face was covered in a thin veil. She stood by the private room’s window and looked in the direction of ng Chuan’s manor. Although she was over 2.5 kiloters away, she could clearly see ng Dajiang watching everybody leave as he stood at the manor door. She also saw the good-looking youth riding a tall horse.
Dajiang, you’ve gained so much weight. The cyan-robed woman watched from afar. Chuan’er has also grown up. Her eyes were filled with tears.
