Ye Xingchen said, "May I ask if these system missions can be any fairer? Even an elementary school kid would know how to choose."

The system replied, "Take it or leave it. If you don't want it, I'll take it back immediately!"

Hearing the system's forceful response, Ye Xingchen fell silent!

After a pause, he looked at Ning Fengzhi and said, "Fine. However, I don't want this to be too high-profile. The fewer people who know, the better. After all, my identity..."

Seeing Ye Xingchen agree, Ning Fengzhi, who had been lowering his head, immediately smiled. "I have already thought of countermeasures for every concern, sir!"

"Sir's identity will be that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Young Master. As for your marriage, aside from the few of us, no one outside will know!"

Outside the Forbidden Stone Gate, Ning Rongrong's pretty face was slightly flushed as she nervously clasped her little hands, her mind in complete chaos.

Thinking of how that guy had actually bitten her lips earlier—and even worse, slipped in his tongue—made her feel that he definitely wasn't a good person!

"Rongrong, are you feeling unwell?"

"Why is your little face so red?"

Just as her thoughts wandered, Grandpa Chen Xin, standing nearby, suddenly asked.

Embarrassed, Ning Rongrong stuck out her tongue and smiled. "It's nothing. Maybe the weather is just too hot!"

Too hot?

Hearing that, Gu Rong could not help stroking his chin.

He thought to himself that the Inner Sect Forbidden Ground was almost entirely covered by the Sect Grand Array. It was like spring all year round within—how could it possibly be hot?

He glanced at Rongrong and teased, "Could it be that you're thinking about that guy?"

"Tell Grandpa, do you like him?"

Hearing this, Ning Rongrong's face reddened even more.

For some reason, she wanted to say she did not like him. Yet when she recalled his handsome face and their brief skin-to-skin contact earlier, she simply could not say it.

She could only smile bitterly. "Grandpa Gu Rong, stop teasing me!"

"This was Father's decision. I can't disobey him, can I?"

Chen Xin, who stood nearby with his arms folded, smiled.

Seeing Rongrong's bashful appearance, he had already guessed the outcome.

Glancing at Gu Rong, he said with a smile, "What? If Rongrong doesn't like him, are you going to chop that guy up?"

Gu Rong snorted indifferently. Turning his head to look toward the stone gate, he said, "As long as Rongrong doesn't like him, even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up for her!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the stone gate slowly opened. Ning Fengzhi emerged first.

Behind him followed Ye Xingchen, dressed in white and elegant as jade, with red lips and white teeth.

When he saw Ning Rongrong before him, the corners of his lips could not help but curl up slightly.

"Elders, from today onward, Ye Xingchen is the Young Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and also Rongrong's husband!"

Ning Fengzhi glanced at the two Titled Douluo, Gu Rong and Chen Xin, then clasped his hands with a smile. "In the days ahead, I hope you will look after him more. Fengzhi will be forever grateful!"

Husband?

Though Ning Rongrong had known about it beforehand, hearing those two words still left her somewhat dazed!

Looking at the refined young man gazing at her, she inexplicably blushed.

With a soft sigh, Gu Rong shook his head. He glanced at Ning Fengzhi before looking at Ye Xingchen. "Now that the Sect Master has made up his mind, how could Gu Rong dare object?"

"Still, Rongrong's marriage is a major matter. How can it be handled so hastily? I'm still somewhat worried!"

Ning Fengzhi was not surprised to hear this.

He knew that the two seniors truly regarded Rongrong as their own granddaughter.

This sudden marriage arrangement was indeed somewhat rushed.

But for the sake of his late wife, he could no longer worry about so much!

"I have already discussed this with the Young Master. It is not suitable for everyone to know about it. It is enough for us to know!"

"He was willing to cultivate alongside Rongrong, deepen their feelings together, and work things out together. After all, they're both young people, ahem!"

Chen Xin, who stood to the side with a calm expression, smiled faintly and said:

"Since that is the case, then let us proceed as the Sect Master has arranged!"

"Tonight happens to be an auspicious day. I shall preside over the wedding ceremony!"

A wedding ceremony?

So soon?

Ye Xingchen, who had remained calm all along, was slightly stunned. He had originally thought it would be tomorrow.

But from the way that old man Chen Xin spoke, it seemed as though he wanted to send them straight into the bridal chamber!

"Old man Chen Xin, what are you..."

Gu Rong scratched his head in confusion. Upon hearing this, he could not help but look at Chen Xin and ask!

Ning Rongrong: "Isn't this a little too fast... Grandpa Chen Xin..."

Ning Fengzhi: "Not too fast. The bridal chamber has already been prepared..."

Good grief!

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingchen, standing nearby, nearly stumbled to the ground.

Ning Fengzhi was handing over his daughter far too quickly!

He could barely contain himself!

Gu Rong scratched his head. Seeing Chen Xin and the Sect Master cooperate so seamlessly, he did not even know what to say!

"Then shall we go?"

"Directly bow to heaven and earth, then send them into the bridal chamber?"

Chen Xin cheerfully added fuel to the fire, making Ning Rongrong swallow involuntarily.

She glanced at Ye Xingchen's calm face, yet no matter how she looked at it, something felt off!

A moment later, the bright moon hung high. Inside the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, "First bow to heaven and earth, second bow to the elders, husband and wife bow to each other..."

Watching the two complete the brief rites of three bows and nine kowtows, Ning Fengzhi could not help but burst into tears.

Ever since his wife passed away, he had raised their daughter all by himself.

Now, he had finally arranged a home for his daughter in accordance with his wife's final wish. He could not help but smile and say:

"Rise, Xingchen. From now on, Rongrong is in your care..."

"She is my only daughter. You must take good care of her..."

Ye Xingchen nodded slightly after hurriedly completing the rites, thinking that Ning Fengzhi, that old fox, was truly cunning!

They had only just finished bowing, yet he no longer called him Young Master. He was already speaking in the tone of a father-in-law, actually calling him Xingchen!

"Ding! Mission reward has been delivered. Please collect it, Host!"

However, for the sake of the system reward and Ning Rongrong, he decided not to pursue the matter.

After coughing lightly, Ye Xingchen smiled and said:

"Then I'll head into the bridal chamber?"

Into the bridal chamber?

Hearing those words, Ning Rongrong, her face covered by a red bridal veil, blushed furiously.

When that pair of fair, large hands took hold of her wrist, her delicate body could not help but tremble.

It was as if, in that moment, she had truly become the wife of this man she had only met a few times!

As their figures gradually disappeared, Ning Fengzhi, feeling as though something was missing from his heart, shook his head slightly.

He glanced at the two elders, Gu Rong and Chen Xin, who sat nearby drinking in silence, then walked over with a smile.

"Let Fengzhi have a few drinks with you. Today is Rongrong's happy day!"

After drinking several more cups, Gu Rong gave a soft snort, rose to his feet, and sighed.

"Sect Master, if I don't say this, old Gu here will feel terrible!"

"What benefit does this person bring you, for you to drag Rongrong into this as well?"

"Old Gu, you've had too much to drink," Chen Xin, seated nearby, quickly reminded him upon hearing this. "Why don't you hurry up and apologize to Fengzhi? Take a look at what day it is today!"

Ning Fengzhi shook his head with a smile. Now that his daughter had married that lord, he had nothing left to worry about.

He then smiled and said:

"It concerns becoming a god, and the great matter of reviving my wife!"

"This one is the key!"

Hearing this, the drunken Gu Rong sobered up at once!

Having become a Titled Douluo, he had lingered at level ninety-five for many years!

Trying to advance even the slightest bit was as difficult as crossing an insurmountable chasm!

His desire to become a god had gradually faded beneath the wear and tear of time.

But fading did not mean it was gone!

"Is that true?"

Chen Xin glanced at Gu Rong and said calmly:

"Madam's Great Prophecy has always been exceptionally accurate. This matter is likely genuine!"

"Nowadays, the only places in the world that may possess gods are probably the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall. Elsewhere, there are few and far between!"

"If one god—or even several gods—were to emerge from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, then..."

Ning Fengzhi picked up a cup of strong liquor and drank it, then nodded slightly. Smiling broadly, he said:

"That's right. Rongrong was born with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul. If she can break through that limit because of this, becoming a god will not be difficult!"

"And the key lies with this person!"

Having grasped the whole picture, Gu Rong nodded. He finally understood why the Sect Master had been in such a hurry to marry off his daughter!

So that person was a true treasure. If they did not secure him early, no one would feel at ease!

"I understand. It seems the day of our rise has come!"
