Chapter 160: Decision (Final Chapter of Volume)
The cyan-robed woman studied Meng Chuan’s appearance carefully—his eyebrows, eyes, eyelashes, nose, mouth, ears, and even the mole on his face—she tried to see everything. She couldn’t see the mole on Meng Chuan’s face because she was over five kilometers away from him.
Chuan’er’s facial features are roughly the same as when he was young. His facial lines are more defined now. The cyan-robed woman smiled as she looked at him. His eyelashes are still quite long. I might be able to see the mole under his eye if I move a little closer.
All these years, Dajiang has raised Chuan’er. Chuan’er really hasn’t disappointed us. Though the cyan-clothed woman was happy, she couldn’t help but tear up.
She watched the wedding entourage arrive at Liu Qiyue’s temporary residence. After entering the manor for over two hours, the bride was finally received. Liu Qiyue—who was dressed in a red robe and a phoenix corset—got into the sedan chair.
Liu Yebai watched this scene with mixed emotions. His daughter was finally married; he was relieved that the groom was Meng Chuan. Liu Yebai only wished for his daughter to live well. He didn’t want his daughter to bear the burdens he had. He never told his daughter about how the Liu family was pressuring him.
Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were extremely talented. The Liu family didn’t come and disrupt the marriage. Instead, they sent an Indestructible G.o.dfiend with a congratulatory gift. They were very low-key. Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai didn’t make a big fuss either. They didn’t want to cause a commotion. With the Liu family’s actions of sending an Indestructible G.o.dfiend, their att.i.tudes were very obvious. They weren’t willing to anger Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue. They just wanted to mend their estranged relations.h.i.+ps.
…
The cyan-robed woman clenched her fingers tightly as she watched the wedding entourage return to Meng Chuan’s manor with the bride.
After the bride got off the sedan, the groom and bride stepped over a fire basin and entered the manor. When they entered the manor, she was no longer able to see them.
“He’s getting married,” whispered the cyan-robed woman. “Chuan’er has finally gotten married. His wife grew up with him. It’s great, just wonderful.” The tears in the cyan-robed woman’s eyes vanished. She regained her composure and cold expression and left the private room. To the gray-robed elder outside the room, she said, “It’s time to return.”
“We have to return as soon as possible. We have to return by today; otherwise, it will be troublesome if we are discovered.” The gray-robed elder was somewhat worried.
“Don’t worry,” replied the cyan-robed woman indifferently.
She and the gray-robed elder silently left North River Pa.s.s. Meng Dajiang and Meng Chuan didn’t know about her presence.
…
“Kowtow to Heaven and Earth!”
Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue held a red silk ribbon. Currently, they were extremely happy and satisfied. They kowtowed to Heaven and Earth under many people’s eyes.
“Kowtow to the parents!”
Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue turned around and kowtowed to Meng Dajiang.
Meng Dajiang chuckled as he watched them. However, his heart ached a little when he saw the empty chair beside him. He quickly composed himself and continued to smile at Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue.
“Kowtow to one another!”
Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue kowtowed to each other.
After the ceremony, they were officially husband and wife. From now on, he was her husband, and she was his wife.
“Send them to the nuptial chamber!”
Meng Chuan brought Liu Qiyue to their newly-decorated house.
…
The bride, Liu Qiyue, could rest in the room and wait. Meng Chuan removed the red flower from his chest and went out to receive the guests. As the groom, he had to drink with every guest.
The moon illuminated the dark sky; the guests began leaving the manor after having their fill.
Originally, the guests had planned on teasing the newlyweds in the nuptial chamber; however, Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were G.o.dfiends! G.o.dfiends enjoyed special status; thus, they didn’t need to follow ordinary customs. Some G.o.dfiends got married by only kowtowing to Heaven and Earth—they did nothing else. Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue underwent most of the official rites but had decided to skip the nuptial chamber teasing.
After all the guests left, Meng Dajiang drank alone in his own room. His vision blurred as he swayed tipsily. It was as if he had returned to the day he got married.
When he got married, he wasn’t fat at all. He had been a young man in his prime. At that time, his wife had the beauty of a fairy. However, he had raised his child alone for many years, until Meng Chuan entered Archean Mountain.
Nianyun, Chuan’er is married. In the future, Chuan’er and Qiyue will have children. Meng Dajiang stared out the window silently. Twenty-five years have pa.s.sed by so quickly. Nianyun, I really miss you…
Meng Dajiang was in great pain. His wife’s secrets were unknown to the public, but he knew about everything. For his wife and son, he could only keep them secret forever.
…
In the newlyweds’ room, a red candle was lit. Under the candlelight, everything appeared hazy.
“Qiyue.” Meng Chuan looked at Liu Qiyue, who was still wearing a red veil. He picked up a steel rod and gently lifted the red veil, revealing her flushed face.
Liu Qiyue’s skin was like milky-white jade. After her phoenix bloodline had awakened, her appearance had become even more outstanding. Under the candlelight, she looked more beautiful in her red robe. She was so beautiful that even Meng Chuan couldn’t take his eyes off her.
So beautiful. Qiyue is so beautiful. Meng Chuan knew that he would remember this moment for his entire life.
“Why are you staring at me?” asked Liu Qiyue softly.
Meng Chuan smiled and put down the steel rod. “Qiyue, it looks like you can’t wait any longer.”
Liu Qiyue glared at Meng Chuan. “Who are you talking about.”
“My wife, I was wrong. I’m the one who can’t wait,” said Meng Chuan immediately.
Upon hearing Meng Chuan say “wife,” Liu Qiyue couldn’t help but smile again. Meng Chuan took off his robe and helped Qiyue remove her complicated wedding gown. He whispered, “It’s our nuptial night. Time pa.s.ses quickly, so we can’t afford to waste it.” With that said, he pulled Liu Qiyue onto the bed and lowered the bed curtains.
…
After Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were married, they became lovey-dovey and intimate.
Meng Dajiang, Liu Yebai, and the other guests all had matters to deal with in Eastcalm Prefecture; thus, they stayed in North River Pa.s.s for only seven days. Meng Chuan arranged for a G.o.dfiend to escort his father and company back to Eastcalm Prefecture via flying mount.
“Live well with Meng Chuan in the future,” said Liu Yebai to his daughter before looking at Meng Chuan. “Meng Chuan, Qiyue is more important than my life. I’m handing her over to you. Don’t disappoint me.”
“Don’t worry, Father-in-law. To me, she’s also more important than my life,” said Meng Chuan.
Liu Yebai nodded slightly. “I’m at ease since it’s the two of you.”
“Alright, alright. Let’s just wait for our grandchildren.” Meng Dajian sat on the bird’s back and urged Liu Yebai. “Don’t bother the kids.”
Liu Yebai jumped onto the bird’s back.
“Senior Brother Meng, I’ll head out now,” said G.o.dfiend w.a.n.g Song—who was in charge of controlling the bird.
“Be careful,” said Meng Chuan.
w.a.n.g Song nodded and smiled. Following that, the bird soared into the sky and began flying towards Eastcalm Prefecture.
…
February. Pink flowers were already blooming inside a garden on Archean Mountain.
Supremacy Qin Wu and two illusory figures gathered in the garden.
“Xu Yingwu, why did you ask her to gather so suddenly?” asked a white-robed woman—who exuded a cold temperament even though it wasn’t her true self.
“Qin Wu, you are currently in charge of Archean Mountain. As for Bai Yaoyue, you are in charge of Black Sand Grotto-Heaven,” said the illusory middle-aged man. “I only asked for this meeting because there is an important matter.”
“What is it?” asked Supremacy Qin Wu.
The illusory middle-aged man said, “After our Two World Island discussed internally, we have decided to allow the demon monarchs to enter the human world.”
