Zhen Yuanzi's expression turned cold upon hearing this, but he quickly recovered and said, "Nowadays, even beggars dare to offer opinions. Fellow Daoist Zhunti, if you're looking for trouble, just say so. There's no need for this."
Hongyun tugged at Zhenyuanzi's robe and said, "Today is a joyous occasion. As the groom, it's not appropriate for you to resort to violence."
Nuwa also advised, "Brother Zhenyuan, let's finish the wedding first. I doubt this junior knows about your situation with Fairy Hongyun, so it's likely not something Zhunti specifically arranged."
Then, Nuwa looked towards Mount Sumeru and said, "What are you standing there for? Apologize to fellow Daoist Zhenyuan!"
Yaoshi stepped forward, stammering, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have spoken out of turn at the wedding banquet. Please, Great Immortal, don't hold it against me."
Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said, "I'll let you off today." He then transmitted a message to Xuanxiao: "After the wedding banquet, help me stop Jieyin and Zhunti. Don't let them return to Mount Sumeru. I will reward you handsomely."
Xuanxiao understood that Zhen Yuanzi intended to deal a heavy blow to Mount Sumeru and immediately replied, "Don't worry, I'll stop all the disciples from Mount Sumeru."
And so, amidst an unusual atmosphere, the wedding was successfully completed. After the banquet, Hongyun said to Zhenyuanzi, "How about we go to Mount Sumeru later?"
Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking. We'll go to Mount Sumeru to teach Jieyin and Zhunti a lesson for their poor discipleship. Let's cause an earthquake there first. Fellow Daoist Xuanxiao and the others will help us trap Jieyin and Zhunti."
Meanwhile, Xuanxiao, Taiyi, Kunpeng, and Dijun blocked Jieyin and Zhunti, saying, "Everyone from Mount Sumeru, long time no see. Stay and chat for a while?"
Zhunti was speechless. "Everyone from the Demon Court, have we offended you in Mount Sumeru these past few days?"
Xuanxiao shook his head and said, "A disciple from your Mount Sumeru dared to speak out of turn during a wedding hosted by Empress Wa, and you say we haven't offended you?"
Jieyin's face contorted in pain. "Then what do you want?"
Xuanxiao chuckled and said, "Guess which cheek I'll hit first, your left or your right? If you guess correctly, I'll let you go."
Jieyin's face grew even more pained. "How could I possibly guess that... Little friend Xuanxiao, if you want to fight, just say so."
Xuanxiao smiled, clenched his fist, and cupped his hands. "Xuan Emperor of the Demon Race, I've been entrusted by someone today to spar with fellow Daoist Jieyin. Please, let's have a duel in Chaos."
Jieyin helplessly clenched his fist and took out a vajra pestle, following Xuanxiao into Chaos. Zhunti was about to go help when Taiyi stopped him, saying, "This is my husband's one-on-one fight with Jieyin. We don't want to fight much today. If you want to send another one for us to beat, that's fine too."
Zhunti compared himself and his senior brother against Xuanxiao and Taiyi and silently shook his head, thinking, Senior brother, I won't go. If I go, you'll have to split your attention to protect me, and we'll both be beaten even worse.
In Chaos, Xuanxiao held the Qingming Sword and said to Jieyin, "I won't bully you. I'll fight you with this High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."
Jieyin's face fell. "Then I won't hold back." With that, Jieyin took out the Twelve-grade Golden Lotus of Merit to protect himself.
Seeing this, Xuanxiao chuckled and said, "You're using a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure first, so I won't be polite. Let me show you a new move I've learned. River of Destiny, rise." With that, streaks of destiny power flashed around Xuanxiao, forming a long river.
Xuanxiao's body shimmered with an ethereal glow as he pointed at Jieyin. "River of Destiny, move! Jieyin, you're in for bad luck this tribulation. Your Spiritual Treasure will run away during the fight." With that, a power of destiny descended, and suddenly, Jieyin's magic power was immobilized.
Xuanxiao then switched weapons, taking out the Primordial Sword and pointing it directly at Zhunti. He then incited the Golden Lotus of Merit, saying, "Innate Supreme Treasure, the Primordial Sword is here! Golden Lotus of Merit, you are a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure with your own sentience. If you understand, get out of the way. Jieyin has no magic power now and can't control you."
Next, the Twelve-grade Golden Lotus of Merit showed Jieyin up. It directly fled, leaving Jieyin stunned with anger. Afterward, Xuanxiao, wielding the Primordial Sword, cleanly shaved Jieyin, giving him a bald head ahead of schedule. He then used Chaos sword energy to completely extinguish the life force in his head, ensuring that Jieyin's forehead would forever be barren.
