The Plan Is Underway

Qing Xuan returned to Creation Heaven and told Nuwa about his arrangements. Nuwa laughed so hard that tears streamed down her face.

A few days passed like this. Over there, Di Jun and Tai Yi couldn't wait any longer. They paced around the Sun Palace every day, eagerly anticipating good news from Qing Xuan.

Qing Xuan didn't make them wait too long. After all, he had taken their money to 'resolve' their disaster.

On this day, Qing Xuan arrived leisurely, his face beaming like a sunflower.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor! Congratulations, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor!"

Qing Xuan cupped his hands as soon as he entered.

"The good deed is done! After my 'persuasion with reason and emotion,' the two fairies of the Moon Star have finally come around! They feel that Your Majesty is wise and mighty, and the Demon Race has a boundless future. They've agreed to the heavenly marriage!"

"Really?!"

Di Jun shot to his feet, his voice cracking with excitement.

Tai Yi also looked at him with disbelief and joy.

"Could it be fake?"

Qing Xuan patted his chest.

"With me personally handling it, is there anything I can't accomplish? The two fairies are shy and didn't want to come themselves, but they've already agreed! I've also delivered the betrothal gifts on Your Majesty's behalf, and they accepted them with great pleasure!"

Upon hearing this, Di Jun and Tai Yi's last doubts vanished, replaced by sheer ecstasy!

Merits from the heavenly marriage! The Grand Formation of the Stars complete! The Demon Race's fortune soaring!

It was settled!

"That's wonderful! Fellow Daoist Qing Xuan, we are truly indebted to you for this!"

Di Jun excitedly clasped Qing Xuan's hand, his face full of gratitude.

"The Demon Race will never forget your great kindness!"

"You're too kind!"

Qing Xuan subtly withdrew his hand.

"Then let's proceed with the formalities quickly? Choose an auspicious day, announce the engagement to the Great Desolation, and solidify the status! That way, if the Heavenly Dao senses it, we might even get some merits in advance?"

"Yes, yes! That's exactly what we should do!"

Di Jun nodded repeatedly and immediately gave orders.

"Quick! Prepare! Let it be the grandest ceremony! I want the entire Great Desolation to know that I am marrying the Goddess of the Moon Star!"

Under the vast influence of the Demon Race, within a few days, an extremely grand and Great Desolation-shaking engagement ceremony was held on the Sun Star.

Di Jun and Tai Yi made a special trip to the Moon Star again. This time, "Xihe" and "Chang Xi" did not refuse.

Although their reactions were a bit slow, their eyes were a little vacant, and their speech was somewhat mechanical, with Qing Xuan's "covert manipulation" and some smooth talking, they managed to get through the ceremony without any major mishaps.

Di Jun and Tai Yi's minds were filled with the impending merits from the heavenly marriage, completely blinded by joy. They didn't notice these details at all, only thinking that the two "goddesses" were indeed cold and shy.

News of the engagement spread like wildfire throughout the Great Desolation!

"Did you hear? The Demon Emperor is going to marry two goddesses from the Moon Star at the same time!"

"A heavenly marriage! Witnessed by the Heavenly Dao! As expected of the overlords of the Great Desolation, the Demon Race, what a grand spectacle!"

"The Demon Race is about to ascend to the heavens! Their fortune will be even greater now!"

"Tsk tsk, His Majesty Di Jun truly has great fortune..."

Discussions erupted everywhere in the Great Desolation.

There were those who envied, those who were jealous, and many who were simply watching the show.

On Kunlun Mountain, the Three Pure Ones merely glanced at it indifferently and said nothing more. Their entire focus now was on how to become Sages.

Especially after Nuwa became a Sage, they, as Pangu's True Lineage and direct disciples of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, found it hard to accept that a mere woman like Nuwa had achieved Sainthood before them.

In the Western Lands, Jieyin and Zhunti were so envious their mouths were watering, wondering if they could also get some merits.

In the Sea of Blood, Old Ancestor Styx snorted coldly and continued to work on his Asura Race.

In Wuzhuang Temple, Old Ancestor Hongyun sighed and continued to hide in fear.

The Witch Race, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Zhu Rong, were furious and shouting, feeling that the Demon Race was getting arrogant again. The malevolent energy in Pangu Hall intensified.

Meanwhile, in the Human Race tribe by the East Sea, the real Xihe and Chang Xi looked at the phenomenon of the Demon Race announcing the heavenly marriage in the sky with complex expressions.

On one hand, they were relieved to have escaped a disaster. On the other hand, seeing their names being used by two rabbits to get married felt truly... indescribable.

At this moment, they truly believed Qing Xuan had a grudge against the Demon Race, and not just a small one.

Fuxi, standing nearby, suppressed a laugh and comforted them.

"Please rest assured, two fairies, and live here. This amusing event will surely become a 'legendary tale' in the future."

Within Creation Heaven, Nuwa and Qing Xuan watched this farce, laughing uncontrollably.

"You wicked disciple, you're truly mischievous!"

Nuwa's laughter brought tears to her eyes, abandoning all pretense of Sage-like demeanor.

"When the wedding day arrives and the truth is revealed, Di Jun and Tai Yi will probably go mad with rage?"

Qing Xuan also chuckled.

"Master, this isn't my fault. They just couldn't see clearly themselves. We'll just wait and watch the show! When you officiate the wedding with your Red Gauze Ball, you'll gain merit, have had your fill of entertainment, isn't that wonderful?"

"You're full of schemes!"

Nuwa rolled her eyes at him, but the smile on her face couldn't be suppressed.

On the Demon Race's side, however, it was a joyous occasion. Lanterns and streamers were hung, and preparations for the grand wedding ceremony were already underway with great fanfare.

Di Jun even brought out the River Diagram and Luo Book to personally divine, choosing what he believed to be a top-tier auspicious day, rare in ten thousand years. He then sent invitations throughout the Great Desolation, determined to make this heavenly wedding unprecedented and unparalleled!

The attention of the entire Great Desolation was drawn to this upcoming "heavenly wedding," which appeared to be infinitely glorious on the surface but was secretly hiding an earth-shattering trap.

Everyone in the Great Desolation was anticipating the grand occasion of the first wedding in the Great Desolation.

Little did they know, an unprecedented spectacle, an event that would later make Di Jun and Tai Yi want to flee the Great Desolation just thinking about it, was quietly brewing...

All that was needed was for the Demon Emperor to lift that big red veil!
