337: 337.
Zhen Yangzi 337: 337.
Zhen Yangzi On the second day of the seventh lunar month, it is auspicious to: Wed, Form alliances.
Today is Lu Li and Xia Weiyun’s wedding…or rather, it would be more suitable to call it a “ceremony.”
Through a ceremony, they proclaid to the world the alliance and union between Lu Li and the Dragon Sect.
As a result, the Dragon Sect now boasted two Soul Ergence Experts, significantly strengthening its power and foundation.
The ceremony was set to start at noon, but many people arrived early in the morning to show their importance.
“Sect Leader of Baohua Sect has arrived!”
“Sect Leader of Chishan Sect has arrived!”
As the disciples tasked with receiving guests announced one after another, a continuous stream of visitors entered the gate.
Hou Shaoyi, leading eight True Inheritors and elders of the sect responsible for hospitality, ushered the guests into the main hall.
No matter who ca here, they would be stunned for a mont by the gleaming gold that filled the place…
On one side of the main hall, there stood a Golden Mountain!
Constructed from stacks of gold bricks, it was over two persons tall, likely weighing more than a dozen tonnes!
The gold shone so brightly that once the guests ca to their senses, they would complint with a phrase, “The young master of your sect is truly generous!”
Such ceremonies displayed the groom’s dowry in the main hall for face’s sake.
Though Li Yuanzhong claid it was no big deal, when Lu Li presented the 12 tonnes of Gold, the old Taoist was overjoyed and ordered it to be placed in the center of the main hall.
The people of the Dragon Sect were also proud, standing up straight and even their walk carried a sense of briskness.
It was still early, and Xia Weiyun was in her boudoir, getting dressed and made up.
The Dragon Sect advocated “Purity and serenity, returning to truth,” and its disciples practiced self-restraint, without servants and the like.
Even Li Yuanzhong took care of his daily living by himself.
Xia Weiyun simply changed into a blue outfit from the Dragon Sect and lightly touched up her lipstick, and she was ready.
With her natural beauty, she didn’t need much adornnt; a re enhancent was enough.
But there were other important things to attend to now.
Xia Weiyun secured the doors and windows and pulled out two books from under the pillow.
The first book had pictures of many figures, showing 108 thods of procreation, and it was even in color.
Xia Weiyun, often out and about, naturally knew of such things, but she had never practiced them.
She intended to study up a bit more to prevent any embarrassnt that evening.
As for the second book…
the title was “Great Joyful Zen.”
Just hearing the na told one it wasn’t anything decent, but Xia Weiyun was considering how to give it to Lu Li.
Just then, steps were heard outside the door; Lu Li was coming.
“Sister Xia, isn’t it ti to go?”
“Hold on, co here for a second.”
Xia Weiyun, unreserved as she was, called Lu Li over and said, “Little brother, take a look at this book.”
Lu Li glanced at it and confidently said, “I know all the thods in there.
Tonight, I’ll let you experience each one~”
“You’re incorrigible!”
Xia Weiyun punched him lightly and pushed the second book forward, saying, “It’s this one!”
Only then did Lu Li turn his attention to “Great Joyful Zen,” and he hesitated a bit.
“Is this…
a gathering and replenishing skill?”
“Exactly.”
Xia Weiyun, her face slightly flushed, said, “My Yin Elent is still intact.
It would be too wasteful to just let it go.
It’s better for you to gather it and replenish yourself.”
“But isn’t this an Evil Magic?”
Lu Li said earnestly, “I don’t want to hurt you, and I don’t really need it that much…”
“Little brother Lu, you should know that magic is neither good nor evil, only people are.”
Xia Weiyun took his hand, speaking earnestly, “Just this once, consider it as the joy of the bridal chamber.
I know you are wealthy and have many amazing experiences.
But cultivation is like daily life; it has to flow gently and continuously to last.
The real consumption is still to co; Manifesting Saint, Golden Body, they are like a Bottomless Pit!
No amount of wealth is enough to fill them!”
Xia Weiyun ant well and her words were rational.
So Lu Li nodded in agreent, “Then I’ll study this book and gather from you tonight.”
“You little rascal, can’t you speak more subtly!”
Xia Weiyun gave him a look, truly full of charm.
And with the well-fitting outfit accentuating her shapely form, Lu Li truly couldn’t wait to begin the gathering then and there!
Xia Weiyun ca over, straightened his clothes a bit, and then, hooking his arm, said,
“Let’s go, we’ll et the guests in the main hall.
And wait for Uncle Zhen Yangzi to co~”
But no sooner had they stepped outside than Hou Shaoyi arrived like a bolt of lightning and said,
“Don’t go to the main hall just yet, Uncle Zhen Yangzi has arrived and is with master~”
“So early!”
Xia Weiyun hurried back into the house and ca out carrying a jug of wine, none other than the Immortal Brew they had prepared in advance.
Hou Shaoyi looked on with envy and curried favor by saying, “Sister, brew more of this wine and share so with .”
“That’s not out of the question, depending on your performance.”
Xia Weiyun’s response was intentionally vague, enticing Hou Shaoyi to eagerly say,
“Brother has always been on good terms with you.
When you ran off to beco a nun without a word, it was I who persuaded master…
eh…”
Halfway through his sentence, Hou Shaoyi suddenly realized he probably shouldn’t have brought that up…
Xia Weiyun shot him a deadly glare, and he quickly shut his mouth.
In the ti it took to exchange a few words, the three had arrived at the residence of Li Yuanzhong.
He was speaking with a middle-aged man of slender build, dressed in a snow-white Daoist robe.
Upon seeing Lu Li’s arrival, he hurriedly introduced, “This is Brother Zhen Yangzi from the Taiji Palace.”
It’s hard to guess at the age of a Martial Artist of high realm.
Zhen Yangzi appeared to be in his early forties, but his expression was somber.
Seeing this man, Lu Li was caught off guard and stared rudely for a mont.
It was Xia Weiyun who perford the courtesies for her brother, prompting Lu Li to co back to his senses and follow suit with a fist-in-palm salute, “Honored to et you, senior.”
His surprise was due to the fact that Zhen Yangzi had a vertical pupil on his forehead…
he was unmistakably a Golden Race person!
As the younger generation greeted him, Zhen Yangzi just waved his hand nonchalantly and continued his conversation with Li Yuanzhong,
“Those shrimp actually plan to hide in the Spirit Realm and even invited along, a bunch of trash!
The Spirit Realm will be taken by others sooner or later!”
Li Yuanzhong nodded in agreent, “The best outco would be to use this opportunity to gather the strong of Shen Zhou and strike at the Cloud People from outside the border.”
Zhen Yangzi wasn’t optimistic, “A motley crew, only eyeing the benefits of the Spirit Realm, not infighting would be a blessing.”
“We make our own fate; we have to try.”
Li Yuanzhong didn’t delve deeper, instead turning the conversation to Lu Li,
“This is Mr.
Lu whom I ntioned to you, Brother; he will surely beco a supporting pillar for the protection of Shen Zhou!”
“Oh?”
Zhen Yangzi finally took a serious look at Lu Li and comnted,
“Not bad, though his killing intent is a bit heavy.
He’d be a better match for your disciple than that shrimp, Azure Dragon.
But, missing a leg, his achievents might be limited…
Wait, are you seeking the Life Creation Pill?”
“Yes!”
Lu Li imdiately responded with a fist-in-palm salute, “I’ve heard this pill can regenerate severed limbs.
I seek to restore my deficiency and break through my realm!”
Xia Weiyun also quickly chid in, “Lu Li has just recently eradicated the Chuyun Leased Territory of Jinn, we kindly ask for the Uncle’s support!”
She knew of Zhen Yangzi’s deep-seated enmity towards the Chuyun people and thus highlighted this point.
However, Zhen Yangzi let out a bitter smile and said,
“Back then, I was chased away like a dog without a ho, my entire Sect falling into enemy hands.
The Life Creation Pill…
I don’t have it.”
At these words, Xia Weiyun’s face fell.
Fortunately, Zhen Yangzi glanced at the jug of wine she held and sniffed, saying,
“Good wine~ Niece, you are considerate!
As for the elixir, I can brew a batch right now, but you’ll need to find the raw materials yourselves.”
Xia Weiyun let out a sigh of relief, handing over the jug of wine promptly, “Please, Uncle, advise us!”
After Zhen Yangzi uncorked the jug and took a whiff, he said,
“You will need a freshly taken heart from a Werewolf, and it has to be from an Innate Level Werewolf at least.”
“Mm-hm, mm-hm, that’s not a problem; there will surely be Werewolves in Hu State!”
Xia Weiyun was very proactive and quickly inquired further,
“Uncle, is there anything else we should be aware of?”
“Just one thing.”
After taking a sip of wine, Zhen Yangzi said,
“The Life Creation Pill can’t really create life from nothing.
After taking the pill, one will indeed grow a new leg due to the self-healing factor, but whether it will contain ridians and acupoints, that’s not guaranteed.”
