"Haha, Old Wang is so young and promising, becoming the brother-in-law of Prince Jing at such a young age. I’m impressed, truly impressed!"
"Hic, ’When wealth and honors co your way, don’t forget each other,’ Old Wang, don’t forget to give your brothers a helping hand!"
"..."
"Sure, sure."
Wang Yuan finally saw off a sowhat inebriated Qiu Shaobai and a few others, with Dharma Light flashing around him, he swept into the bridal chamber like the wind.
The simple feast at Mirror Lake did not go on too late.
If the wedding had really been done with great pomp and circumstance, with Wang Yuan’s current capabilities, it wouldn’t have been any less spectacular than when a princess gets married.
Just by letting out a little bit of news, all the big nas from both the yin and yang paths in Dengzhou Prefecture would probably be rushing over to attend the banquet, packing Mirror Lake to the brim.
It’s a pity that in the Immortal Dao, one’s standing is not based on anything other than Taoist ability.
They never really cared for formalities, not bothering to invite all those irrelevant people to engage in ineffective socializing.
At most, aside from their own family, they invited a few familiar colleagues from the Imperial Dragon Guard to add a bit of Human Qi to the occasion.
It’s just that Qiu Shaobai and the others still didn’t know that the original bridegroom under the spell of the Dharma Prohibition, Colonel Wang Qianshan, had already beco their own boss’s boss.
Jokingly asking him for help was akin to worshipping at the right temple door.
Not to ntion while you’re still alive, if you were to die one day, everything would already be neatly arranged for you.
Being simply favored by the emperor’s heart is just so... outstanding!
Of course, nothing is more important right now than today’s pri event.
"Sister!"
Wang Yuan slowly lifted the veil of Huang Wu, and their eyes t.
Although he had seen her countless tis before, under the lantern light today, the small bride dressed in her wedding attire seed especially stunning.
Her delicate eyebrows and eyes, moist red lips, a face as bright as the moon, eyes as brilliant as the Milky Way, and the sweet smile in her eyes that could not be concealed no matter what.
Wang Yuan had imagined this scene countless tis before, and he even experienced it once in a nightmare woven by Young Master Huadie.
But when the mont finally ca, his heart felt surprisingly at peace.
Once upon a ti, the two siblings, one was the Fool whom everyone in the clan could not wait to see die, and the other a young Ghost trapped in the mirror who couldn’t go anywhere.
To say that their love was intense and passionate would be an exaggeration.
But having depended on each other from a young age, like air to humans or water to fish, they naturally and implicitly bound their lives tightly together.
Though their love was not fiery, it was lasting and full-bodied.
Pieces of the mortal world fill my dreams countless tis over.
Today, they have jointly overco nurous difficulties. While making leaps and bounds in their Taoist ability, they also reunited with their mother, aunt, younger brother (brother-in-law), and cousin.
Now, they have officially joined together today as new entities to et the future, and to also say a perfect goodbye to their bleak past.
Seeing Wang Yuan staring at her, Huang Wu’s face, as bright as the moon, slowly blushed with two red clouds as she scolded him softly with embarrassnt:
"Xiao Yuan, do you plan to just keep looking at like this?"
"Oh... Oh..."
He picked up a fiery red Red Spider Lily sent back by Grandpa through the Ghost Gate from the table and gently tucked it into Huang Wu’s hair.
After hurrying through their wedding wine, Wang Yuan bent down sowhat excitedly to help the "beauty is tipsy, her rosy cheeks slightly flushed" gorgeous girl out of her shoes and socks and to loosen her clothes.
At this mont, however, two small black shadows appeared through the crack of the door.
Zisu and Hualing, each covering one eye with a hand, stared unblinking and fixedly into the room with the other eye:
"Wow... that looks really impressive, but are we supposed to be watching this?"
"Shut it, Hualing, do you not want to find out how babies are made anymore?"
Long before the wedding, Wang Yuan had let all the Five Senses out of his body.
These two little ones, driven by curiosity, tiptoed over to listen at the wall.
Just as the sisters were covering each other’s mouths, they were both lifted up by the neck in the next mont.
When they turned around, they saw the Ghost Baby incarnation swelling to the size of a little house.
"Hehe, cousin. It was Zisu (Hualing) who dragged here!"
The two curious babies still tried if they could get out of trouble with their cuteness.
"Off you go!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
They were pulled by the tail by Wang Yuan and rcilessly flung out like a slingshot.
The sisters scread as they activated "Wind Body Cloud Body" in the sky, turning into a heavy downpour that splashed into Mirror Lake.
In the room, it was naturally ti for spring to arrive, everything to regenerate, and for the pri day of the year to co again.
Only the whispering wind quietly carried snatches of tender pillow talk:
"Xiao Yuan, although my Soul Body is nearly indistinguishable from a at Body after refining form,
my Corpse has always been preserved fresh in the ’Green Phoenix Pearl’; maybe I should just temporarily possess it and go back? It shouldn’t be much different from when I was alive."
"That... might not be necessary, right? And Little Huang Wu, you’re so dirty!"
"Hmm... How about this? What about a semi-transparent Soul Body?
And I’m quite skilled at the illusory magic of ’Moon in the Water and Flower in the Mirror’, which is a specialty of us Ghost girls."
"Princesses, maids, female generals, dancing girls... you can choose any type of sister you want,"
"Hiss! Is it that thrilling? The joy of having a ghost wife is beyond the imagination of outsiders.
"How about we try them one by one? Tonight is not enough, but there’s always tomorrow night..."
"Giggle giggle, you now know how good your sister is, don’t you, husband~"
And so, through the long night, the crisp ringing of the Yin Yang Heart Bell on Huang Wu’s ankle persisted for a long ti.
It wasn’t until close to dawn.
Rembering that they were each other’s Taoist friends, they finally began to practice the ’Yin Yang Bright thod’ recorded in the Earthly Que Golden Book.
It was that kind of advanced Dharma Sect that allowed a Taoist couple to make rapid progress, and the experience of cultivation was ineffably exquisite.
With her lower Taoist ability, Huang Wu advanced swiftly towards the ’Yin God’ realm, while the more advanced Wang Yuan honed his Taoist skills to beco even more harmonious, digesting a good amount of the heavenly purity that descended upon him.
Spring nights are short, the sun rises high, from now on the king will no longer attend the morning court.
The newlyweds, imrsed in... er, cultivation, found the days flying by quickly.
March 26th, cultivation makes happy! I have the Heavenly Departnt Dao Skill, and with my extraordinary gifts, I still cultivate so diligently—I’m going to outperform you all!
March 27th, still very happy!
March 28th, cultivation is important, but shouldn’t we balance work and rest? It seems that it’s been so ti since state affairs have been attended to.
Confucius said, ’Three tis a day, I examine myself.’ Wang Xiaoyuan, you can’t keep going on like this.
March 29th, nothing urgent today, diligently cultivating!
March 30th, happy!
March 31st, happy...
Of course, during this period, it wasn’t just the two of them engaged in dual cultivation.
Qingyan and Long Shao, associated with the Wood Elent and Water Virtue, had received the ’Clear and Muddy Dragon Ball,’ a world-class Earth Essence Treasure, and began jointly cultivating it with the ’Sky One Blue thod.’
This couple planned to rely on the sa-source Dharma, with water nourishing wood, to refine it into their shared ’Lifebound Magic Treasure.’
Once they each had imbued the Dragon Ball with a breath of their own Dragon Energy, the Dragon Ball began to look more and more like the eye of a Divine Dragon.
The ’One-Eyed Stone Man’ was already an avatar of the Turbid River Calamity Face, and with the refinent by the Dragon Energy of two Yellow Seal True Dragons.
It instantly turned the ’Clear and Muddy Dragon Ball’ into a very rare ’Qi Fortune Treasure.’
Holding part of the authority that belonged to the Turbid River, not only could it carry the power of floodwaters to strike others, but it could also be used to control the river and destiny.
It could even intervene, to a limited extent, whether the calamity of the Turbid River erupted sooner or was delayed.
For example, traditionally, the Turbid River’s floods were pitiless, not shifting for human will.
"Imperial decree to the Governor of the Eight Rivers: summon thunder and wield lightning, command rain over Chang’an city tomorrow. At 7 a.m., arrange the rain; at 9 a.m., thunder stirs; at noon, rain falls; by 1 p.m., cease and collect. Dispense a total of three feet, three inches and forty-eight drips."
There could absolutely be no delay.
But now, with the ’Clear and Muddy Dragon Ball’ keeping watch, room for negotiation appeared.
Humankind could hold back the waters, adjusting them slightly forward or delaying for a period, working in conjunction with their control over the faith along the upper and lower Turbid River, they already resembled the Water God of the Turbid River.
If they could seize the remaining Dragon Balls in the future, these two might well usurp the authority of the ’One-Eyed Stone Man,’ putting the Turbid River completely under human control and drought,
eliminating the fundantal basis for the existence of the ’One-Eyed Stone Man.’
Of course, since they hold the final Dragon Ball, the Green Seal Strange Immortal would certainly not forget them.
With Dengzhou Prefecture under the governance of Wang Yuan and Zhou Jinhuan, divine presence looms at a re three feet above your head; doors are not picked up during the day and not shut at night; people’s hearts are influenced.
The strength of the ’Dragon Qi Prohibition’ in the area is almost surpassing that of Great Yan at its most victorious ti.
If the ’One-Eyed Stone Man’ dared to co here, he would likely never return.
Moreover, Zhou Jinhuan had already issued an edict, using the shipping advantages of Yunhe County and Ninghai State, offering high prices for overseas fine strains, especially the sweet potatoes and potatoes ntioned by Wang Yuan.
With Qingyan and Long Shao, who are adept at dealing with water and wood,
inspired by the ’Crops Improvent Guide’ provided by Wang Yuan, they began assembling teams, not to interfere with potentially uncontrollable Daoist powers, but to use human effort to improve crops, planning to permanently enlarge the ’pie’ of Dengzhou Prefecture.
With the high-yield crops, tripling or quadrupling the population would be as easy as playing a ga.
It probably wouldn’t take long before the concentration of ’Dragon Qi Prohibition’ locally would break the all-ti record of past dynasties.
This was in line with the advice from Giant Gate Star Lord Xu Zhenzhi to Zhou Jinhuan, the Water Virtue Flood Dragon.
— Nine Three: The gentleman is on alert all day, cautious in the evening, which is perilous, yet without fault.
Nine Three speaks of the ’Alert Dragon,’ where ’alert’ implies vigilance.
What state is this? Like standing on the brink of an abyss, walking on thin ice, ticulous and cautious, trembling with fear.
It could also an that a gentleman keeps his talents hidden, waiting for the right mont to act.
Staying low-key and accumulating strength quietly.
Waiting for the right timing, Nine Four: then he leaps over the abyss.
Wang Yuan was also pleased to see this progress, the more enthusiastic the ’Nine Soldiers’’ Giant Gate Star Lord was, the more valuable Zhou Jinhuan, his brother-in-law, appeared to the faction of ’Great Fate.’
The greater the chances of his side reorganizing the world.
In a hurry, another half-month passed by.
Just as Huang Wu was about to break through the ’Yin God’ realm, Wang Yuan suddenly received a notice from Xu Zhenzhi that the day to join the ’Nine Soldiers’ had finally arrived!
