The wedding continued.

"First bow to the vast ocean!"

Chen Zeyu and Xiao Bai retreated to the corner of the hall of their own accord; they did not believe they could withstand the bows of two Limit Douluo. In this venue, perhaps only those two generations of Sea Gods could.

Dressed in a phoenix coronet and rosy robes, they held hands to bow and pledge their remaining years to one another.

Chen Xinjie and Long Yeyue each held an end of the red silk ribbon, facing the boundless, vast ocean that had nurtured the Sea God Family for generations, and bowed solemnly, three times in total.

"Second bow to the Sea God!"

The Sea God was the faith passed down through generations of the Sea God Family.

He guided generation after generation of clansmen to overcome thorns and thistles, forging ahead with grit.

Even as time flowed on and this era had long since ceased to see the Sea God manifest miracles, the Sea God was no longer merely a deity; he was a spiritual totem deeply branded into their bloodlines, supporting the entire family's progress.

Three bows and three kowtows.

Below the stage, Leng Yaozhu was almost mesmerized, her eyes filled with envy. Was marrying the man one loved not the greatest fortune for a woman?

She subconsciously touched her ring finger; it was empty, and she sighed inwardly.

She glanced at Su Jiu, who was standing to the side with a twitching mouth, wondering when this blockhead would finally notice her feelings.

Honestly, he was such a fool!

Su Jiu's mouth twitched repeatedly. No, bowing to the ocean and the old Sea God was one thing; he could understand that.

But the two of them bowing to the Sea God Tang San? What benefits had Tang San ever given their Sea God Family? None, right? You let him work you like cattle and horses, yet you remain grateful to him?

Everything you possess comes from the hard work of your own clansmen and the gifts of the old Sea God. What the hell does Tang San have to do with your gratitude?

Na'er picked up a large shrimp and began to eat it happily, but before she could take a bite, Su Jiu took it away.

"Ouch~ you little glutton, you represent the face of the Leng Family. Don't think about eating on an occasion like this; give Old Man Chen and Big Sister Yue some face."

Na'er looked at Su Jiu with resentful and displeased eyes. By the looks of it, she was definitely holding a grudge!

The big bad guy Old Su snatched Na'er's shrimp and wouldn't let her eat. A-Jiu said this counted as abusing Na'er, so Na'er had another reason to dislike him. As expected, Old Su was the most annoying...

Nearby, Ya Li of Shrek Academy kept her gaze glued to Na'er. She used her loyal left hand to firmly pin down her right hand, which was itching to reach out and pinch Na'er's little face. This child was simply too cute; it made her heart itch as if thousands of ants were crawling on it.

Could she be the child of Leng Yaozhu and Leng Wuduan?

That didn't seem right; the child didn't have any features from either of them. It was highly unlikely. So, who was she?

Perhaps sensing Ya Li's burning gaze, Na'er burrowed into Leng Yaozhu's arms. Who was this auntie, and why did she keep staring at her?

In situations like this, A-Jiu had told Na'er before that this was most likely a "perverted gaze"!

At the thought of this, goosebumps almost covered Na'er's entire body.

Maybe she should go to Old Su's side...

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

Long Yeyue and Chen Xinjie turned slowly, their gazes meeting in mid-air.

The thin layer of white silk veil could not block the burning heat and excitement surging in each other's eyes.

In Old Man Chen's eyes was the anticipation that had spanned years, the scorching emotion of finally being together after weathering the storms, flowing silently in the moment their eyes met.

As for Long Yeyue, the composition was somewhat complex; there was happiness, certainly, but the proportions were unclear.

After bowing to each other three times, Chen Xinjie picked up the long rod made of Blue Gold Purple Coral from the table and lifted Long Yeyue's veil.

Her brows and eyes were filled with smiles, and a secret fragrance drifted toward him, making Chen Xinjie feel a burning heat on the spot. He wished he could skip these procedures and carry Long Yeyue straight to the bridal chamber.

However, there was one final step: exchanging rings.

Chen Xinjie carefully took Long Yeyue's remaining left hand, his gaze falling on her ring finger.

A deep mark remained there—the trace left by wearing the Tianjuan Ring for most of her life—but now it was empty.

He rubbed the mark with his fingertips, the joy of victory surging in his eyes. This vacant spot finally belonged to him, Chen Xinjie!

Tianjuan, you may have enjoyed the prime of Long Yeyue's youth, but what Chen Xinjie gained was the mature wife Yeyue, a Long Yeyue perfectly maintained in every aspect by Tianjuan!

Hehehe~

"Yeyue, are you willing to marry me?"

"I, I am willing!"

"I am willing too!"

Just then, intense cheers erupted from below the stage. The War Gods were the most boisterous, and even the heavily injured Cai Yue'er gritted her teeth and clapped.

Big Sister Yue was Little Sister Yue's mentor, like a sister and a mother to her. Seeing Big Sister Yue find her own happiness, Little Sister Yue was naturally happy too.

Of course, their matchmaker, Su Jiu, also clapped along.

"My little child bride, you have experience now, right? When you marry me in the future, don't be so nervous that you forget everything."

"Hmph! Old Su, you! Sister Leng, Old Su only knows how to bully Na'er. Sister, help me talk to him!"

"Eh~ our Na'er is clearly very smart. You definitely won't make any mistakes when the time comes, A-Jiu, don't you worry."

"Mhm~ that's right, Old Su, you should learn more from Big Sister Leng and learn to see Na'er's strengths. It's obvious that Na'er is very smart... Big Sister Leng, you're bullying Na'er too!"

"QAQ~ That's too much..."

Yet, Na'er, pouting her little mouth, didn't notice that although she claimed to be unhappy and displeased, her body was completely at ease, as if she had already grown accustomed to the way of life in this home...

"Warning! Warning! High-energy substance reaction detected in large quantities!!!"

"Preliminary detection: 3 Level 10 Fixed-Direction Soul Guidance Shells, 32 Level 9 Fixed-Direction Soul Guidance Shells, and several Level 8 and Level 7 shells... arriving at the Sea God Family in 10 seconds!"

"Current optimal escape plan: Void Leap!"

A-Qi's ethereal and dust-free voice suddenly exploded within Su Jiu's spiritual sea.

Su Jiu reacted instantly, immediately realizing the gravity of the situation. Was this an attempt to wipe out the top combat power of Douluo Continent in one fell swoop?

Fortunately, he had placed Void Sharp Bee Sentry units near the Sea God Family's base in advance, allowing him to detect this sudden crisis.

Although he was still bewildered by this sudden, terrifying attack, as his artificial intelligence, he firmly believed that A-Qi would never lead him astray.

Ten seconds of evacuation time was enough!

Su Jiu stood up and summoned his first martial soul, Sharp Bee Hunting. Ignoring the surprised, confused, and even displeased gazes of those present, he ferociously slashed a rift into the void, applied the Void Sharp Bee Mark to the equally bewildered Leng Yaozhu and Na'er, and sent them inside.

"In 7 seconds, 6 seconds, a terrifying barrage of Fixed-Direction Soul Guidance Shells will strike the Sea God Family. I've delivered the message; whether you believe it or not is up to you."

Having said that, Su Jiu stepped into the void rift himself. He never claimed to be a saint, nor did he possess the benevolent heart or grand ambition to save the world; he only wanted to protect his own small family, and that was enough.

Three Void Sharp Bee Sentry units appeared where the three of them had vanished.

One hundred thousand meters away from the Sea God Family, with 5 seconds left before the warhead barrage landed!

Su Jiu immediately switched to his second martial soul, Flame Demon Roar, mounted his heavy sniper rifle, and aimed at the small cluster of dark shadows standing in the sky. He was now certain that the soul guidance shell barrage was the handiwork of these people!

When Su Jiu saw a face that was nearly ninety percent similar to Leng Yaozhu's, his pupils couldn't help but tremble—it was Leng Yulai!

Then, standing in front of her must be the one Emperor and two Sovereigns of the Holy Spirit Cult, along with the Four Heavenly Kings standing beside her!
