"First bow to Heaven and Earth!"
"Second bow to the elders!"

Liu Jie and Xing Yueling raised their heads and smiled at one another, then departed amid everyone's blessings.
Above them, Xiao Yun and Zhao Wuji also rose together, preparing to attend the banquet.
"Haha, Old Xiao, who would have thought we'd become in-laws? That brat Liu Jie isn't bad—just like me." Zhao Wuji laughed heartily beside him, immensely pleased with himself.
Watching his precious disciple Xing Yueling get led away by Liu Jie, Zhao Baldy's disciple, Xiao Yun forcibly suppressed the displeasure in his heart and pulled a fake smile across his lips.

"Mm, it was just a small matter. I didn't expect even you would be alerted. The Dragon Emperor is too old.

Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes at him. "Since you're so strong, how about we spar after the banquet?"
"Forget it. Today is my disciple's wedding day. As his master, of course I have to drink myself senseless. We can spar another day." After saying that, Zhao Wuji no longer dared keep showing off. He hurried after Wu Chaozu and the others, who were chatting ahead.
