A Bridegroom at Seventy-Two
"Come, come with me to the feast."
Ye Xuan revealed a smile.
I never imagined that I would be able to enjoy a grand feast after being transported to Primordial World.
This is also a good opportunity to see what kind of guy this so-called Jiang Ziya really is.
He then led Su Daji and Wushuang out of the palace quietly.
When the three arrived at the south of the city following the directions, they were indeed greeted by a bustling scene.
Why did Jiang Ziya's wedding cause such a big commotion?
Every corner was filled with banquet tables, numbering over a hundred.
However, since meals are served individually nowadays, and weddings are held in a continuous banquet style, it wasn't too crowded.
Some people are already eating at the banquet.
From afar, Ye Xuan spotted Jiang Ziya and Lady Ma, both dressed in red.
Upon seeing the two, Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked over carefully.
Jiang Ziya had white hair and beard, and looked rather young, around forty or fifty years old, which could be described as an ethereal and otherworldly figure.
However, Ye Xuan's expression revealed a cold smile.
This Jiang Ziya was even worse than he remembered.
He looked to be nothing more than a Heavenly Immortal being, quite ordinary indeed.
Why would someone like that be allowed to preside over the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods?
It must be said that Yuanshi Tianzun greatly underestimated himself.
He couldn't help but shake his head.
Ye Xuan then turned his gaze to the side.
Beside Jiang Ziya was another woman dressed in wedding attire.
The woman looked to be in her forties, yet she still possessed a certain charm.
Ye Xuan was somewhat speechless.
This Lady Ma actually has some good looks.
Shouldn't he be over sixty years old by now?
Puzzled, Ye Xuan led the two forward, since they were already there, they should at least have a drink before leaving.
Suddenly he spotted a table not far away.
A burly man was sitting there drinking, and a rather striking woman was serving him his drink.
Upon seeing the couple, Ye Xuan couldn't help but smile.
Isn't this his General Wang Yong?
Ye Xuan even had a meal at his family's restaurant and left him the secret manual of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.
Who would have thought he'd appear at Jiang Ziya's banquet?
Ye Xuan quickly led Wushuang and Daji to Wang Yong's presence.
Wang Yong looked up and was immediately taken aback.
He quickly stood up and bowed to Ye Xuan.
The woman behind Wang Yong also recognized Ye Xuan. Seeing the Human Emperor bow, she followed Wang Yong in bowing as well.
Ye Xuan smiled gently.
"I am traveling incognito this time, so you two don't need to be so formal."
General Wang, what brings you to this banquet?
Wang Yong felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Um... Your Majesty, my family lives right next door."
"The Song family is having a happy occasion, so they invited me as well."
Hearing this, Ye Xuan nodded.
He then sat down at the empty table next to him.
After all, it was a system of individual servings, with each person having their own table.
Upon seeing Ye Xuan take his seat, servants naturally brought out delicious food.
The table was instantly filled to the brim.
Wushuang and Su Daji sat on either side of Ye Xuan, serving him wine.
Daji poured wine Wushuang served food, taking very good care of Ye Xuan.
"General Wang, you're drinking too? By the way, how's your practice of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms going?"
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's question, Wang Yong couldn't help but reveal a simple and honest smile.
"Your Majesty, of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms, I have mastered fourteen. The remaining four are increasingly difficult, and I have yet to comprehend them."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.
To be able to master fourteen palm techniques in such a short time is already quite impressive.
Ye Xuan had a particular fondness for this palm technique; after all, who wouldn't like such a powerful and masculine palm technique?
This is Ye Xuan's first work.
Although they succeeded, they did not develop a complete cultivation system.
It simply became a Martial Dao manual.
Ye Xuan then handed the Martial Dao manual to Wang Yong.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yong actually mastered it.
"It's alright, take your time to figure it out. If you really can't understand it, you can come to me, and I'll demonstrate it for you."
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's voice, Wang Yong was naturally moved to tears.
Afterwards, Ye Xuan and Wang Yong drank together.
Although the wine was of poor quality, Ye Xuan drank it with exceptional relish.
Not long after, Jiang Ziya led his wife to the vicinity to offer a toast.
He immediately recognized Ye Xuan's extraordinary abilities.
He couldn't help but quickly greet Ye Xuan.
He had already sensed strong energy fluctuations from all three of them, realizing that they must be Immortal Dao.
Seeing Jiang Ziya's humble attitude, Ye Xuan couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.
"Today is your joyous day. You've come here on your way, so why not have a drink? It's truly a cause for celebration."
"I didn't bring any gift with me to this wedding, so how about I write a poem for you? It would be a good way to wish you a happy marriage."
Jiang Ziya felt a chill run down his spine as he sensed the terrifying aura emanating from the three men.
"Those who come are guests, so why bother with gifts?"
"If you are in such high spirits, then I, Jiang Shang, am all ears."
Looking at Jiang Ziya, whose hair was completely white, Ye Xuan revealed a meaningful expression.
"Leaving Kunlun for the capital, Ziya marries a maiden today."
"A sixty-eight-year-old virgin, a rare age to become a groom."
After Ye Xuan finished reciting the poem, his expression changed slightly.
"Jiang Shang, what do you think of this poem?"
Jiang Ziya's lips twitched slightly.
This is hardly poetry!
They were clearly mocking him.
And he immediately revealed his background.
"Thank you. May I ask where you studied, and what your name is?"
Ye Xuan simply smiled and didn't say anything.
"It seems we have a certain fate together; we will meet again in the future."
"You'll probably be quite surprised then, won't you?"
Ye Xuan shook his head, then left with Su Daji and Wushuang.
Now that we've met the people and eaten the feast, it's time to leave.
Jiang Ziya watched the three people walk away, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"Brother, do you know who this person is?"
Song Yiren was beside him, shook his head.
These three young men and women possessed extraordinary qualities and were not people he could easily befriend.
Wang Yong, however, whispered to himself:
"This year is extraordinary; it's incredibly valuable."
Upon hearing this, the group quickly turned to look at him.
"This one is His Human Emperor."
"For His Human Emperor the Emperor to attend your banquet, you must have accumulated eight lifetimes of good karma."
Song Yiren and Jiang Ziya were immediately taken aback.
That young man was actually His Majesty the Human Emperor?
Jiang Ziya's brows furrowed slightly.
"There's a demon here--------"
"A monster is actually following His Majesty the Emperor?"
"Does His Human Emperor not fear the presence of demons and monsters?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present rolled their eyes.
This is an open secret, what's there to say?
His Human Emperor's daily life is now being managed personally by the Dragon Clan Princess.
If we're talking about demons, would the Dragon Clan Princess be considered a demon?
There are even fox spirits lurking around His Majesty; these are truly demons.
But this is already an open secret, so there's nothing surprising about it.
Seeing the indifferent and unsurprised expressions on everyone's faces.
Jiang Ziya's expression stiffened, but he remained silent.
After his wedding, Jiang Ziya finally got to experience the pleasures of love.
Upon first experiencing this sensation, he became somewhat captivated by it.
Finally, he experienced what it truly means to live a blissful life where one envies neither the immortals nor the mandarin ducks.
However, after a few days, Jiang Ziya became somewhat sullen again.
