Marrying Dan Chen, Sky Screen Revealed

Central Plains, Pill Region.

The Danta disciples' square was festooned with lanterns and decorations, red silk draped everywhere, creating an especially festive atmosphere.

Today was the day Lu Chuan and Dan Chen were to be wed.

The two had grown up together and could be considered childhood sweethearts. The three Danta giants had also approved of their marriage.

The square was packed with people. Danta disciples and elders had all come, smiles on every face.

Lu Chuan stood in the center of the square in his groom's attire. Looking at Dan Chen before him in her red bridal dress, he could not help feeling somewhat emotional.

More than ten years had passed since he transmigrated into the world of Dou Qi.

Five years ago, he had still been Danta's cultivation prodigy. At such a young age, he had broken through to Nine-Star Dou Zong, and everyone in Danta had discussed him, saying he was likely to become the youngest Dou Zun.

Unfortunately, he had later suffered severe injuries in an accident, damaging his dantian and leaving him unable to cultivate.

Over the past five years, his strength had steadily declined, falling from Nine-Star Dou Zong to Nine-Star Dou Zhe. He was hardly any different from an ordinary person now.

Yet even so, Dan Chen had remained devoted to him and had even taken the initiative to propose marriage.

Thinking of this, Lu Chuan felt touched. A smile appeared on his face as he looked at Dan Chen before him.

Dan Chen wore a red bridal dress. Although her face was still somewhat pale, a shy and happy smile hung on it at this moment.

She raised her head to glance at Lu Chuan and softly called, "Brother Lu Chuan."

Lu Chuan nodded and took her hand. "Chen'er."

The people below the stage watched them, and quite a few felt it was a pity.

After all, Dan Chen was an alchemy prodigy of the Dan Family. At such a young age, she was already a Beginner Eighth-Rank Alchemist, yet she had married a good-for-nothing Nine-Star Dou Zhe.

Still, it was her own choice, so no one else could say much.

Just as the wedding ceremony was about to begin, a voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.

"Wait!"

Everyone followed the voice and saw a tall figure emerge from the crowd.

It was Cao Ying.

She wore a long black dress. Her features were exquisite and striking, and her face bore a trace of displeasure.

After striding to the center of the square, Cao Ying stopped before Lu Chuan and Dan Chen.

"Sister Cao Ying?" Dan Chen called out in confusion upon seeing her.

The moment Cao Ying glanced at Dan Chen, she turned to Lu Chuan, her eyes filled with undisguised contempt.

"Sister Dan Chen, have you truly decided to marry him?"

Dan Chen nodded at her words. "I have, Sister Cao Ying."

However, Cao Ying's brows furrowed even more tightly. Pointing at Lu Chuan, she said, "Look at him now. He is only a Nine-Star Dou Zhe, weaker than even an ordinary Danta disciple."

"You are an eighth-rank alchemist, yet you are marrying him. Aren't you wasting your own future?"

"And with strength like his, how will he protect you in the future? If you marry him, you will only suffer and toil."

The more Cao Ying spoke, the more dissatisfied she became. "With a body like his, he still agreed to marry you. If that is not selfishness, what is? He is simply holding you back."

"Sister Dan Chen, you used to listen to everything I said. How could you be so foolish and naive this time?"

Hearing Cao Ying speak of him this way, Lu Chuan was not moved in the slightest. His true strength was far beyond what these ants could imagine.

However, Dan Chen stepped forward and stood in front of Lu Chuan. Looking at Cao Ying seriously, she said, "Sister Cao Ying, do not speak about Brother Lu Chuan like that."

"I was the one who proposed this, and I am the one willing to marry Brother Lu Chuan."

"No matter how strong he is, I am willing to marry him. He is the only one in my heart."

"Sister Cao Ying, I know you mean well, but I have already made my decision. Please stop trying to stop me."

Seeing Dan Chen persist so firmly, Cao Ying opened her mouth as though she wanted to say something, but in the end, she merely sighed.

Looking at Dan Chen like this, she felt both angry and helpless.

Sister Dan Chen had once listened to everything she said, yet now she was speaking to her this way for Lu Chuan's sake.

At that moment, Xuan Yi, one of the three Danta giants, walked over and said, "Cao Ying, this is Dan Chen's own choice. Do not interfere."

"Continue the wedding."

After glancing at Xuan Yi, Cao Ying looked once more at Dan Chen and Lu Chuan. In the end, she bit her lip and stepped aside.

The ceremony continued. Before everyone's witness, Lu Chuan and Dan Chen bowed to Heaven and Earth and completed their wedding.

By the time all the rituals had ended, it was already night, and the two entered the bridal chamber.

Early the next morning, Cao Ying returned to her room. Even after closing the door, her face remained full of displeasure.

Sitting in her chair, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

"Sister Dan Chen used to listen to me the most. She listened to whatever I said, yet now she actually talked back to me because of that Lu Chuan."

"Lu Chuan is like that, a Nine-Star Dou Zhe who cannot do anything. Who knows how much grievance Dan Chen will suffer after marrying him?"

The more Cao Ying thought about it, the more she felt it was not worth it for Dan Chen. Her expression grew increasingly grim.

Just then, a golden light suddenly lit up before her.

She froze for a moment, then raised her head to look.

A massive golden Sky Screen appeared in midair, lines of large golden words emerging upon it.

[Sky Screen activated. Information on the powerful figures of the Dou Qi Continent is being disclosed...]

Cao Ying frowned, having no idea what this was, but she continued watching.

Soon afterward, a person's name and detailed information appeared on the Sky Screen.

[Name: Lu Chuan]

[Identity: Danta disciple, Dan Chen's husband, transmigrator]

[Strength: Youngest Nine-Star Peak Dou Saint (hidden strength)]

[Heavenly Flames mastered: All Heavenly Flames of the Dou Qi Continent (complete collection)]

[Self-created battle skills: Heaven Class Battle Skills (multiple)]

[Soul realm: Emperor-Realm Soul]

[Profession: Heavenly Sovereign Alchemy Grandmaster]

[Note: This individual is in a state of hidden cultivation. His actual combat strength far surpasses all currently known powerhouses on the Dou Qi Continent.]

Seeing what was displayed on the Sky Screen, Cao Ying froze completely.

Her eyes widened as she stared fixedly at those lines of golden words, her lips trembling slightly.

"N-Nine-Star Peak Dou Saint?"

"All Heavenly Flames, an Emperor-Realm Soul... a Heavenly Sovereign Alchemy Grandmaster?"

Cao Ying's mind went blank. She simply could not believe what she was seeing.

Lu Chuan?

The Lu Chuan whose dantian was damaged, who could not cultivate and had only the strength of a Nine-Star Dou Zhe left?

The Lu Chuan whom she had just yesterday cursed before everyone, calling him selfish and accusing him of holding Dan Chen back?

Cao Ying abruptly rose to her feet. Even when she knocked over her chair, she could not spare it a glance.

She stared intently at the Sky Screen's contents, trying to find some flaw, but the golden words were displayed there with absolute clarity.

The youngest Nine-Star Peak Dou Saint.

He had mastered every Heavenly Flame on the Dou Qi Continent.

He had created Heaven Class Battle Skills.

An Emperor-Realm Soul.

A Heavenly Sovereign Alchemy Grandmaster.

Any one of those identities was enough to shock the entire Dou Qi Continent, yet all of them were concentrated in a single person.

And that person was actually Lu Chuan.

Cao Ying's body trembled slightly as the expression on her face gradually turned to shock.

Yesterday, she had cursed a Nine-Star Peak Dou Saint before so many people, accusing him of holding someone back?

At the thought, a cold sweat broke out across Cao Ying's back.

She stood motionless in the room, staring at the information displayed on the golden Sky Screen for a long while, unable to recover her senses.

"H-How is this possible?!"
