Wuzhuang Temple Wedding Held as Scheduled, Xuanxiao's Lavish Gift Shocks the Primordial Wilderness

After delivering Kui Niu, Xuanxiao immediately flashed over to the Heavenly Court and said, "Old Father, I caught you a mount. It's a cow at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. Though its temper doesn't seem too good. I knocked it unconscious and brought it back, so you'll have to train it yourself."

Tongtian watched as Xuanxiao flung Kui Niu out of his sleeve and was overjoyed. "Hahaha, this cow is great! What a good cow, what a good cow!"

Xuanxiao nodded. "I'm glad you like him, Father. But let me make this clear first: I knocked him unconscious from behind while he was butting heads with another cow. He might not submit to you after waking up, so you'll have to figure out how to deal with him yourself."

Tongtian chuckled. "Let me put it this way: your father is an expert at taming beasts. Don't believe me? Just look at our Shangqing Palace. It's practically the number one animal sanctuary in the Primordial Wilderness."

Xuanxiao chuckled as well. "Old Father, the Interception Sect should start recruiting disciples on a large scale. I'll go into seclusion first. In another ten years, it'll be time to attend Zhen Yuanzi's wedding." With that, Xuanxiao found a secret chamber and entered meditation.

Not long after Xuanxiao entered seclusion, Venerable Yuanshi comprehended his own Dao, established the Exposition Sect in the Jade Void Palace, and achieved Sainthood. Venerable Yuanshi pointed at the sky with one hand and swore, "Heavenly Dao above, I, Venerable Yuanshi of Yuqing, have sensed the difficulty all living beings in the Primordial Wilderness face in cultivating the Dao. I am willing to establish a sect called Exposition, whose purpose is to expound upon the Heavenly Dao. With the Pangu Banner suppressing its destiny, the Exposition Sect is hereby established!"

Rumble! The Heavenly Dao responded and sent down merit for establishing the sect. Combined with the merit of creating the world, Yuanshi successfully achieved Sainthood. Purple Qi came from the East for three thousand miles, and Saintly Might pressed down upon the Primordial Wilderness. Afterward, Venerable Yuanshi transmitted his voice throughout the world: "A Grand Array will be set up on Kunlun Mountain a thousand years from now to begin recruiting disciples. Anyone with great opportunities and great comprehension may join the Exposition Sect."

Time flowed on, and in the blink of an eye, the day of Zhen Yuanzi's wedding arrived. In front of Wuzhuang Temple, the two young Daoist attendants, Qingfeng and Mingyue, began announcing the guests.

"The Three Pure Ones of Kunlun Mountain have arrived, presenting one High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."

"The Heavenly Emperor has arrived with the Demon Empress, presenting three Innate Spiritual Treasures."

"Xuan, Xuan, Xuan... Mystic Emperor has arrived with Eastern Emperor Taiyi. The wedding gift is... Primordial Violet Qi. Mystic Emperor, did you bring the wrong thing? Are you really giving this as a wedding gift?" When Xuanxiao's gift was announced, Qingfeng was so shocked that he stammered.

Xuanxiao nodded and called out loudly, "Zhen Yuanzi, a few days ago, I promised to give you the path to Sainthood after borrowing your Earth Book to break through the Grand Array of Mount Sumeru. I've brought it to you."

Zhen Yuanzi hurried out to welcome him. "Hahaha, thank you, Fellow Daoist Xuanxiao. Come, come, please enter!"

The many mighty figures thought, The face of Primordial Violet Qi is truly formidable. The groom himself came out to welcome him.

"Ancestor Minghe has arrived, presenting one Ninth-grade Karma Red Lotus."

"Mount Sumeru, Jieyin and Zhunti have arrived with numerous disciples, presenting three Houtian Spiritual Treasures."

Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi's face darkened several shades. Xuanxiao said, "Great Immortal, don't be unhappy on such a joyous day. Once the wedding banquet is over, we can find an excuse to go to Mount Sumeru and beat those two up."

In the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun frowned and asked the Heavenly Dao, "Heavenly Dao, Xuanxiao gave the Primordial Violet Qi to Zhenyuanzi instead of fusing with it himself. Can he still be controlled?"

"He can. Zhenyuanzi lacks the opportunity to establish a sect and achieve Sainthood. He has no merit from creating the world backing him. The merit he gains from establishing a sect alone will happen to be insufficient for achieving Sainthood." The Heavenly Dao's laws revolved for a moment before it answered.

"Ding! The Heavenly Dao has acknowledged that the Primordial Violet Qi may belong to Zhenyuanzi. The reward is now being issued. River Control Art—the rivers are the River of Time and the River of Destiny. All are rivers..." Within the system space, the system's big-sisterly voice began imparting the technique. Luohu immediately sealed his six senses and endured without listening.

After waiting for quite some time, the imparting of the technique ended. The system's big-sisterly voice said, "They're all top experts among the Chaos Demon Gods. There's no need to avoid them. I believe you won't secretly learn it."

Luohu nodded. "Isn't it a little too early to teach him this technique? His laws haven't reached that level yet, have they?"

The system's big-sisterly voice scratched her head. "It's fine, it's fine."

At that moment, Nuwa arrived at the high platform and said, "Today is the wedding day of Zhen Yuanzi and Fairy Hongyun. On behalf of the newlyweds, I thank everyone for coming. As before, I'll be presiding over the wedding today."

Nuwa then introduced the story of how the two had met, as well as the contributions Zhen Yuanzi had made in the past. Finally, she looked at Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun and asked, "Is there anything you two would like to say?"

The two exchanged a glance, then said in unison, "I only hope that I can remain with my beloved forever." After speaking, they tightly clasped each other's hands and gazed deeply into each other's eyes.

"Wonderful! Now, let us bear witness to a sincere and sacred love!" Nuwa encouraged them with a radiant smile.

Zhen Yuanzi held Fairy Hongyun's jade-like hand, his face filled with happiness. At that moment, a discordant voice rang out. "Fairy Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi haven't even bowed to Heaven and Earth, yet they're already holding hands? That's against proper etiquette."

Following the voice, they saw that it had come from the group of disciples from Mount Sumeru. A Taiyi Golden Immortal named Medicine Master had been whispering to his fellow disciples. But everyone present was a mighty figure—how could anyone fail to hear what he had said...? Thus, the entire scene fell silent.
