The Snake-People Tribe, the day of the grand wedding.

The tribe was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, with red silk fabrics draped across every corridor and eave.

Tribespeople moved in and out, busy finalizing the last details of the wedding.

Compared to the wedding with Yao Ye a few days ago, the scale of this event was no less grand.

After all, Yao Yue, just like Yao Ye, was a princess of the Jia Ma Imperial Family.

Having two princesses marry Xiao Chen in succession was a tremendous honor for the Snake-People Tribe.

The First Elder stood at the entrance of the great hall, watching the tribespeople coming and going, his face full of smiles.

"This kid Xiao Chen, he really has quite the fortune."

The First Elder stroked his beard and laughed.

The Third Elder stood to the side and nodded as well.

"First the Misty Cloud Sect leader, and now two princesses from the Imperial Family."

"This is also because Xiao Chen has his own capabilities; a Dou Ancestor expert and a Tier 7 Alchemist, he is worthy of these women."

The Fourth Elder said.

The several elders discussed, their tones filled with pride.

The Second Elder stood to the side; although he did not speak, his expression was much better than before.

He no longer dared to show any disrespect toward Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen's strength was there for all to see: a Dou Ancestor expert and a Tier 7 Alchemist.

Neither of those were things he could afford to offend.

In the center of the great hall, Xiao Chen stood there wearing a red robe.

Yao Yue stood beside him, dressed in a red bridal gown.

Unlike the calmness her sister Yao Ye had shown during her wedding, although Yao Yue's face still held a hint of awkwardness, the resistance from before was gone.

She lowered her head and snuck a glance at Xiao Chen.

The way Xiao Chen looked in his red robe was indeed quite handsome...

Yao Yue quickly withdrew her gaze, her heartbeat inexplicably quickening.

Queen Medusa sat in the seat of honor, watching the two of them.

Her gaze lingered on Yao Yue's face for a moment, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

This little princess's attitude had softened quite a bit compared to before.

The First Elder shouted out loud.

"The ceremony is complete."

Xiao Chen took Yao Yue's hand and walked toward the bridal chamber.

Yao Yue was led by him, her palms covered in sweat.

She wanted to pull her hand back, but Xiao Chen held it too tightly, and she couldn't move it at all.

Yao Yue bit her lip and let him lead her forward.

Inside the bridal chamber.

Xiao Chen closed the door and turned to look at Yao Yue.

Yao Yue stood in the room, her hands twisted together, her head lowered as she dared not look at him.

The red candles flickered, casting a rosy glow on her face.

Xiao Chen stepped forward and reached out to lift her chin.

Yao Yue was forced to raise her head, meeting Xiao Chen's gaze.

Her heart beat even faster.

"What... what are you doing?"

Yao Yue whispered, her voice trembling.

Xiao Chen looked at her and said calmly.

"Didn't you have questions you wanted to ask me?"

Yao Yue was stunned for a moment.

She did indeed have many questions she wanted to ask Xiao Chen.

Just now at the wedding, she had been thinking about them the whole time.

"Who is your teacher?"

Yao Yue asked.

Xiao Chen looked at her without answering.

"How are you able to refine a tier 7 medicinal pill?"

Yao Yue asked again, "The strongest alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, Gu He, is only a tier 6."

"How can someone as young as you reach tier 7?"

Xiao Chen offered no explanation.

Yao Yue watched him, her heart filled with curiosity.

Since she was young, she had possessed a deep interest in alchemy.

The royal family had also hired the best alchemists to be her teachers.

She had decent talent, and at a young age, she was already a tier 3 alchemist.

Among the younger generation of the Jia Ma Empire, her alchemical talent was considered top-tier.

She had always taken pride in this.

But after meeting Xiao Chen, her pride was completely shattered.

A tier 7 alchemist in his early twenties.

That bit of talent she possessed was not even worth mentioning in front of Xiao Chen.

Yao Yue bit her lip, hesitating for a moment.

"Xiao Chen, I want to ask you something."

Yao Yue spoke up.

Xiao Chen looked at her.

"Speak."

Xiao Chen said.

"Could you... teach me alchemy?"

Yao Yue asked, her voice growing quieter.

Xiao Chen raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Do you want to take me as your master?"

Xiao Chen asked.

Yao Yue's face turned red instantly.

"Not taking you as a master."

Yao Yue hurriedly explained, "It's just... I just want you to teach me a little."

"I'm only a tier 3 alchemist right now, and compared to you, I'm far behind."

The more Yao Yue spoke, the quieter she became, and her head lowered further and further.

Xiao Chen looked at her embarrassed appearance, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.

"I can consider it."

Xiao Chen said.

Yao Yue suddenly raised her head, a flash of pleasant surprise in her eyes.

"Really?"

Yao Yue asked, her voice carrying a hint of excitement.

"Really."

Xiao Chen nodded.

A warmth surged in Yao Yue's heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but lift.

But she didn't want Xiao Chen to see, so she quickly restrained her smile.

"Then... then it's a deal."

Yao Yue said, feigning composure.

Xiao Chen looked at her feigned calmness and reached out to wrap his arm around her waist.

Yao Yue's body trembled, and she froze completely.

"What... what are you doing?"

Yao Yue's voice was trembling.

Xiao Chen lowered his head and whispered into her ear.

"If we consummate the marriage tonight, I might just consider it properly."

Yao Yue's face turned red to the tips of her ears in an instant.

She wanted to push Xiao Chen away, but she had no strength in her hands.

Xiao Chen's hand roamed across her waist; through the wedding gown, she could feel the warmth of his palm.

Yao Yue's breathing grew increasingly rapid.

He reached out and unfastened Yao Yue's wedding gown.

The red wedding gown slid to the floor, revealing the fair skin beneath.

Yao Yue was so shy that she closed her eyes, her entire body trembling slightly.

In all the years she had lived, she had never been like this in front of a man.

Xiao Chen looked at her tightly closed eyes and slightly quivering eyelashes, a surge of tenderness rising in his heart.

He lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Yao Yue's mind went completely blank.

She could feel that Xiao Chen's lips were very warm, carrying an indescribable scent.

Her body grew softer and softer, until she could barely stand.

Xiao Chen picked her up and placed her gently onto the bed.

Yao Yue opened her eyes and looked at Xiao Chen, who was leaning over her.

Her eyes were filled with shyness, along with a hint of nervousness.

"Don't be afraid."

Xiao Chen whispered.

Yao Yue bit her lip and nodded gently.

At first, Yao Yue still bit her lip, forcing herself not to make a sound.

The night passed.

The next morning.

When Xiao Chen opened his eyes, a mechanical voice rang out in his mind.

[Ding, the Multi-Child Multi-Blessing System reward is being calculated.]

Xiao Chen quickly focused his mind.

[Host has completed the grand wedding with Yao Yue, obtaining cultivation reward: Six-Star Dou Zong.]

Xiao Chen felt a jolt in his heart.

Six-Star Dou Zong.

He had broken through directly from a Five-Star Dou Zong to a Six-Star Dou Zong.

Xiao Chen clenched his fists, feeling the surging, boundless power within his body.

It was significantly stronger than a Five-Star Dou Zong.

The corners of Xiao Chen's mouth could not help but curl upward.

As expected of the Multi-Child Multi-Blessing System.

By marrying Yao Yue, he had gained another star.

Going from a Four-Star Dou Zong to a Six-Star Dou Zong had taken only two days.

No one would believe this speed if he told them.

Xiao Chen glanced at Yao Yue beside him.

Yao Yue was still asleep, her breathing steady, a faint blush still lingering on her face.

The marks from last night remained on her neck.

Xiao Chen sat up and put on his clothes.

Just then, Yao Yue woke up as well.

She opened her eyes and, just as she was about to sit up, she suddenly froze.

The Dou Qi within her body was surging wildly.

Yao Yue quickly closed her eyes and carefully sensed it.

Her strength soared all the way until it stopped at a Nine-Star Dou Spirit.

Yao Yue opened her eyes, shock filling them.

Nine-Star Dou Spirit.

She had previously only been at the strength of a Dou Master.

Overnight, she had broken through to a Nine-Star Dou Spirit.

How could this be possible?

Yao Yue sat on the bed, completely stunned.

She thought of her sister, Yao Ye.

After her sister married Xiao Chen, she had also broken through from a one-star Dou Spirit to a one-star Dou King overnight.

At the time, she had wondered if her sister's increase in strength might have something to do with Xiao Chen.

But now, the exact same thing had happened to her.

This made her even more suspicious of one thing.

That was...

Could my increase in strength really be related to Xiao Chen?
