"Emissaries, since you have finished bathing, please follow me to the mountain to observe the ceremony."
Everyone followed Inoue Yuichi out of the hot spring club.
Everyone started climbing towards the top of Sacred Mountain.
Along the way, cherry blossom trees were planted on both sides of the mountain road.
The pink and white petals danced in the wind and fell on the mountain path paved with bluestone, like a long carpet studded with broken jade.
Every few dozen steps along the way, there would be Fusang waiters wearing kimonos and hairpins. Seeing Su Fei and his group approaching, they all bowed and saluted.
The waiter said the old saying Fusang at the door with a humble tone.
These waiters behaved dignifiedly and had obviously been carefully selected and trained.
The mountain path is not steep, but it is also winding and long.
At this moment, everyone was walking along the mountain path on the petals, and they didn't feel it was strenuous at all.
Helian Qingfeng looked stern, but occasionally glanced at the cherry blossom trees on both sides.
Barbarian Tribe The fifth elder took long strides, his rough aura incompatible with the elegant scenery around him. From time to time, he stretched out his hand to push aside the low-hanging branches, still complaining in a low voice about the twists and turns of the mountain road.
The Yan Kingdom messenger was smiling all the way, whispering to the followers around him from time to time, his eyes full of expectations for the Fusang Kingdom Celestial Person Grand Ceremony.
Su Fei still looked calm, his steps were neither hasty nor slow, and the power of his soul always enveloped the surroundings, paying attention to the movements in the mountains and forests.
He could sense the depths of the dense forest on both sides of the mountain road.
There are many warriors hidden, if it weren't for Su Fei's sharp soul.
It would be difficult for ordinary warriors to detect it. It was obviously a secret sentry set up by the Fusang Kingdom to prevent any accidents from Celestial Person Grand Ceremony.
It seems that Fusang Kingdom attaches great importance to Celestial Person Grand Ceremony.
As we continue to climb, the fog in the mountains becomes thicker and thicker.
After walking for about an hour, the bluestone road under my feet gradually became wider, and the sound of silk and bamboo could be faintly heard in front of me, mixed with the faint voices of people.
Wait until they turn the last intersection.
Sacred Mountain The full view of the top of the mountain is displayed before everyone's eyes.
The terrain on the top of the mountain is flat and open, and the ground is covered with a thick red carpet, which is covered with fresh cherry blossom petals.
The petals are pink and white, soft and silent when stepped on.
In the center of the carpet, a high platform made entirely of white jade rises from the ground.
The white jade platform is about six or seven feet high. The jade is all shiny and smooth, and the edges are carved with complicated cloud patterns and cherry blossom patterns. The craftsmanship is very exquisite.
On the high platform, there are two beautifully carved chairs, both made of fine rosewood. The backs of the chairs are inlaid with pearls and gems, which are full of brilliance and luxury.
At this moment, sitting on the seat on the left was an old man wearing a bright red brocade robe.
His beard and hair are all white, his face is rosy, his eyes are bright, his aura is calm and intimidating, and there is always a touch of joy and pride in the corner of his mouth. From time to time, he looks sideways at the seat next to him, his eyes full of satisfaction and expectation.
His breath was calm, and there was a faint aura of calmness and authority.
This person is the core figure of this Celestial Person Grand Ceremony.
Fusang Kingdom's new Celestial Person ancestor Takeda Tokumasa.
But there was also an acquaintance sitting on the seat on the right.
There was a woman sitting on the seat, wearing a complicated Fusang bridal costume. The red kimono was embroidered with gold-threaded cherry blossom patterns. She wore a hair crown with pearl hairpins in her hair, and her face was smeared with exquisite makeup.
Red lips, white teeth, picturesque eyebrows.
But despite being so dressed up, her face was not happy at all, but instead looked cold, with her eyes lowered.
Expressionless.
If not Princess Yan Kingdom Ji Yuyan, who else could it be?
This Princess Yan Kingdom has a special status. She did not come with the Yan Kingdom envoy, but had already been arranged on a high platform.
The Yan Kingdom messenger on the side saw this scene.
The smile on his face stiffened for a moment, and a trace of unconcealable embarrassment flashed in his eyes.
Obviously he had never expected that Princess Yan Kingdom would appear on Celestial Person Grand Ceremony in this way.
This made him feel somewhat embarrassed.
But he reacted very quickly, and in an instant, he covered up the embarrassment on his face.
He put on a decent smile again, but his eyes looking at Ji Yuyan were a little more complicated.
The surrounding area under the high platform was already filled with neat futons and low tables, and many Fusang nobles in gorgeous clothes were already seated.
They wore colorful kimonos and samurai swords or jade pendants around their waists. They talked to each other in low voices and looked expectant.
To be invited to watch the ceremony, these people are obviously Fusang Kingdom's powerful and well-known families, and they are all people of noble status.
Inoue Yuichi led Su Fei and his group through the crowd and stopped in the middle of the platform, where futons had been prepared and tea and exquisite snacks were placed on the table.
"My lords, here are the seats arranged for you. Please take your seats first."
"Waiting for the start of Celestial Person Grand Ceremony."
Su Fei thinks.
The position assigned to them is good. They will not be too far forward and will look conspicuous, nor will they be too far back to see clearly what is going on on stage.
It just so happens that you can have a panoramic view of the entire process of Celestial Person Grand Ceremony, which is obviously carefully considered.
Su Fei and others looked at each other and sat down one after another. Their eyes were on Takeda Tokumasa Ji Yuyan on the high platform, each with their own plans in mind.
Wait until all the futons under the high platform are filled.
Inoue Yuichi stands in front of the guests.
Fusang Kingdom These dignitaries stopped talking.
All eyes turned to Inoue Yuichi, and the entire mountain top fell into solemn silence.
Inoue Yuichi is wearing a dark blue dress, with a simple sword on his waist, and his expression is solemn.
He slowly raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said loudly.
"Dear compatriots of the Fusang Kingdom, distinguished guests, today is a grand event that I, Fusang Kingdom, has rarely seen in hundreds of years. Our country, Ancestor Takeda, is promoted to martial arts, Celestial Person, Celestial Person Grand Ceremony, officially begins."
After the words fell, melodious elegant music sounded from both sides of the high platform. The sound of silk and bamboo intertwined with the sound of drums, with a bit of joy, echoing throughout the top of the mountain.
Fusang Kingdom Everyone stood up and bowed with respectful expressions.
This elegant music was played for a long time.
When Yale took a break, Inoue Yuichi glanced at everyone present and continued to speak, his tone becoming more sincere.
"Next, I will tell you the legendary life of Ancestor Takeda."
"Ancestor Takeda has shown astonishing talent in martial arts since he was a child. When he was eight years old, he picked up a incomplete boxing book on the ground, practiced alone, and developed a solid foundation in martial arts."
"At the age of twenty-three, Ancestor Takeda traveled through Fusang mountains and rivers, interviewed all famous teachers, and realized the Tao in the mountains for three months, breaking through the Acquired Heaven Realm in one fell swoop. At the age of twenty-eight, Ancestor Takeda challenged a notorious evil warrior at that time, fighting fiercely for one day and three nights, and finally narrowly won and killed the opponent with one move."
"After this battle, Ancestor Takeda successfully broke through the Xiantian Realm, and has become famous since then, becoming a rising star in our Fusang martial arts world."
"At the age of thirty-five, Ancestor Takeda spent ten years in seclusion, discovered the true meaning of martial arts, and was promoted to the Grandmaster Realm. His 'Cherry Blossom Style Saber Art' skills are so superb that no one at the same level can rival him."
