Zhuge Xiang's Wedding
Forced marriage has occurred throughout history, but almost all of them involve men snatching away women they fancy and forcing them to marry them. However, today, Zhuge Xiang encountered a situation that was both laughable and pathetic. The new Sea God of Sea God Island, Mo Lingna, was asking Zhuge Xiang to marry her, and the wedding was scheduled for the very next day.
To be honest, Mo Lingna is not bad-looking; in fact, she is a beauty that is one in a thousand. Although she is slightly less attractive than Lin Birou and Lu Yuling, she is just as beautiful as Su Huayu, Wu Zhao, and Qin Qing.
To be favored by such a beautiful woman, to the point where she insists on marrying him, is, frankly, somewhat satisfying for a man's vanity. However, being forced into marriage by her is a bit of a blow to one's pride.
Regardless of what Zhuge Xiang is really thinking, Mo Lingna has placed Zhuge Xiang under house arrest. Although she pretends to love Zhuge Xiang on the surface, she won't let Zhuge Xiang leave the temple no matter what.
The news that the Sea God Island Sea God was about to get married was like a bombshell, but it was followed by cheers from thousands of people on the Sea God Island. Many respected and powerful people on the Sea God Island received invitations from Mo Lingna.
The Sea God is the supreme Deity on Sea God Island. For the Sea God to marry? Such a thing is truly extremely rare on Sea God Island, and of course, a joyous occasion. If a divine child is born, wouldn't that mean the Sea God has an heir?
The Sea God's ascension to the throne was a joyous occasion, and now Sea God wedding is a double celebration.
On the island, a lively and festive atmosphere prevailed. Zhuge Xiang sat in his room, dressed in a bright red wedding robe, quietly awaiting the start of the Wedding.
It wasn't that Zhuge Xiang didn't want to escape. Rather, the entire Sea God Island was under Mo Lingna's control, and with the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy cleared, Zhuge Xiang couldn't even fly on his sword.
The Sea God Hall Poseidon, no longer its usual solemnity, is now adorned in red and filled with joy. Last night, arrangements for the Wedding were made overnight, and today everything is actually set up successfully. Indeed, it's the wedding of the Sea God on Sea God Island. Who wouldn't want to help?
The auspicious time has arrived...
The Wedding officiant was a highly respected elder from Sea God Island. With a resounding shout from him, Zhuge Xiang, dressed in a bright red wedding robe, stepped into the temple.
Holding a red silk ribbon tied with a flower ball, with a red veil covering her head at the other end, Mo Lingna, also dressed in a bright red wedding robe, was led into the temple by Zhuge Xiang.
Inside and outside the temple, a total of eighty-one tables were set up, all filled with the most distinguished people on Sea God Island. These people naturally felt honored to be able to attend the Sea God's wedding.
"The auspicious hour has arrived; let us Heaven and Earth." The elderly man officiating the Wedding, also dressed in a festive robe, announced loudly.
The island's inhabitants celebrated the Sea God's wedding with great joy, even those who hadn't received Sea God invitation. It was like a festival.
However, on Sea God Island, at this moment, a shadow streaked across the sky, flying swiftly towards the direction of the Sea God Hall...
Lu Yuling flew towards the Sea God Hall at an extremely fast speed. Although the surrounding Heaven and Earth Vital Energy of the Sea God Hall was blocked by Mo Lingna, preventing the use of Heaven and Earth Vital Energy to Artifact Flight, some flying birds could not be prohibited. Lu Yuling had obviously tamed a powerful Fairy Bird at sea, which carried her towards the Sea God Hall.
"Hmm?" With her head covered by a red veil, the Sea God Mo Lingna could naturally sense Lu Yuling rapidly approaching. Beneath the veil, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, her heart filled with displeasure.
I made myself perfectly clear last night, but she still showed up at the Wedding. Could it be that she's here to cause trouble? Or perhaps, their relationship isn't just that of fellow disciples?
"What's wrong? What happened?" Despite the red veil covering her face, Zhuge Xiang could still sense Mo Lingna's unusual behavior and asked.
"Bowing to the parents twice".
At the head of the temple, the venerable elder continued to speak, saying that neither Zhuge Xiang nor Mo Lingna had any living parents, but there were two memorial tablets placed in the temple, one for Mo Lingna's mother and the other for the old Beggar Zhuge Xiang.
"It's alright." Although she wanted to deal with Lu Yuling's matter now, the Wedding was at a crucial moment. Furthermore, if Zhuge Xiang and Lu Yuling really had some ambiguous relationship, it wouldn't be good for Zhuge Xiang to know Lu Yuling was there. Therefore, Mo Lingna didn't intend to tell Zhuge Xiang and continued with the Wedding ceremony.
Riding Fairy through the air, Lu Yuling didn't fly towards the Sea God Hall where the Wedding was being held. Instead, she flew towards the cell where Lin Birou was imprisoned. It turned out that Lu Yuling's goal was not to disrupt the Wedding, nor to attend it. Her purpose was to rescue Lin Birou.
The Wedding was still going on. Sensing that Lu Yuling was heading not towards the Wedding Great Hall, but towards where Lin Birou was, Mo Lingna was somewhat surprised. Had she gone to the wrong place? Or did she have ulterior motives?
Regardless, the Wedding was at its most crucial moment, Mo Lingna couldn't allow any mistakes to happen. Therefore, she wasn't in a hurry to deal with Lu Yuling's flight to the place where Lin Birou was being held. Even if she rescued Lin Birou, what difference would it make?
Without her Divine Godhead, she was just an ordinary person. Once the Wedding was over, as long as they were within a radius of thousands of miles of sea, they would have nowhere to escape.
"Husband and wife bowing to each other".
At the Sea God Hall, the Wedding proceeded as planned. After Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna exchanged vows, they were officially husband and wife. As for the place where Lin Birou was imprisoned, even though Lu Yuling, with his cultivation at the Spell Control Stage, couldn't use the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy, his strength was still considerable, and he quickly rescued Lin Birou...
"Hurry up, let's go to the Sea God Grand Hall. Didn't you say there was something there that could deal with the Sea God?" After rescuing Lin Birou, Lu Yuling said urgently.
The First Generation Sea God left a passage to prevent situations like Lin Birou's from happening today. However, without her Divine Godhead, the Sea God is just an ordinary person. Even with a passage to the temple, how could she defeat the person who has taken her Divine Godhead? Therefore, there is a treasure in the Sea God Grand Hall that can deal with rebels.
Even Lin Birou didn't know what the treasure was, because like the mysterious passage, it was a secret passed down orally only during the transition of each generation of Sea God. Lin Birou only knew that the treasure was located there, but she had never seen what it was.
After the ceremony, they were led to the bridal chamber.
After bowing to Heaven and Earth and earth and drinking the Harmonious Union Wine, Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna were officially married. The respected elder announced that Zhuge Xiang should take Mo Lingna to the bridal chamber for the time being.
However, when Zhuge Xiang led Mo Lingna into the Cave Mansion, Mo Lingna stood still and did not move. Zhuge Xiang turned his head to look at Mo Lingna in confusion, and the others in the Great Hall also looked at each other in bewilderment.
However, before Zhuge Xiang could ask any questions, two graceful figures entered the Sea God Hall.
Lin Birou is flawlessly beautiful; her beauty is as vast and all-encompassing as the ocean. Lu Yuling is as beautiful as a lonely moon in the sky, aloof and self-admiring, giving people a feeling of being untouched by worldly affairs.
Both Lin Birou and Lu Yuling are stunning beauties, beauties of such devastating power that they could bring ruin to a country. If the two of them appeared together, they would definitely be the focus of everyone's attention, no matter where they were.
"You're getting married, and I really did manage to catch up. So, what do you think?" With a teasing smile, Lu Yuling asked Zhuge Xiang. As a man, being forced into marriage by a woman—if word got out, he didn't know whether to say he was charming or embarrassed.
"Didn't I tell you that you were not allowed to set foot on this Sea God Island again? Did you really take my words to heart?" Sea God Mo Lingna lifted the red veil and stared coldly at Lu Yuling.
"What you're saying is a bit unreasonable. After all, it's my junior brother's wedding to you, so of course I should come to congratulate you. Besides, Wedding is a matter between two people, but look at this hall, it's almost entirely filled with your bride's people, while the groom doesn't have a single person. That just doesn't make sense, does it?" Lu Yuling showed no fear towards the Sea God Mo Lingna, and instead spoke eloquently.
"My senior sister has a point..." Zhuge Xiang nodded in agreement. It was indeed against custom for the Wedding to be attended entirely by the bride's family, with no one from the groom's side.
"My lord, this matter has indeed wronged you. After the Wedding, I will accompany you to pay respects to our elders," Mo Lingna said with the air of a strong woman, giving the impression of a female chieftain in a bandit's den, with Zhuge Xiang as the handsome man she had abducted.
"However, I welcome whoever comes, but you are the only exception. I've said before that I cannot tolerate you setting foot on Sea God Island again," Mo Lingna said, turning her head with a domineering and condescending expression.
"Today is my wedding day with my husband, and it is not a good day to kill anyone. I will say this one last time: leave Sea God Island and never set foot here again. Otherwise, no matter what happens to you, I will never let you live..." With murderous intent in her eyes, Mo Lingna gave Lu Yuling her final ultimatum.
Lu Yuling successfully attracted Mo Lingna's attention. While everyone's attention was focused Great Hall Lu Yuling and the Sea God Mo Lingna, Lin Birou, without a trace of aura, quietly approached a corner of the Great Hall and gently knocked on an inconspicuous hidden compartment.
