Acknowledging the Sect Master as His Adoptive Father!
Mo Chen retorted, "Why doesn't Father go and talk to the Sect Master? The Sect Master isn't married either."
Upon hearing this, Mo Chen's face flushed red with anger:
"What are you saying, brat? It's none of your business what the sect leader does. Besides, the sect leader is a cultivator with a lifespan of thousands of years. How could you possibly compare to him?"
Mo Chen's words immediately darkened Mo Yang's expression.
Liu Qian, who was standing nearby, quickly said, "Brother Mo, today is a joyous occasion, so please don't say such things."
Mo Chen also realized that there was something wrong with what he had just said. He snorted coldly and then fell silent.
Just then, another space carrier flew in from the sky.
There were many people on the space carrier that came this time, and Zhang Xuan and Zhou Jing were standing at the front.
Upon seeing the arrival of these two, many cultivators from the Xingfeng Sect in the square exclaimed in surprise:
"It's Elder Zhang Xuan and Elder Zhou Jing! I didn't expect them to come together!"
Many people had excited expressions on their faces.
It is a very rare occasion to see the elders of the three major squadrons of the Xingfeng Sect gathered together.
Zhou Jing and Zhang Xuan also came up to Liu Qian Liu Qian greeted him.
"The wedding won't start for a while yet. You can wander around and get to know some of the people inside."
Liu Qian said with a smile.
Although this was a wedding for Wang Hu, it was also a gathering of the Xingfeng Sect).
Many members of the Xingfeng Sect are stationed in various locations, making it difficult for them to gather together.
Wang Hu's wedding will be a perfect opportunity to bring all these people together.
Zhang Xuan and Zhou Jing both nodded, especially Zhang Xuan, who hadn't been back to the sect for a long time and wanted to see many of his old friends.
Zhang Xuan glanced around and then asked, "Isn't the sect leader here?"
Liu Qian replied, "The sect leader is in seclusion. He should be here once the wedding begins."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuan immediately said, "Okay, then I'll go find someone to talk to first, and I'll come back later."
Zhang Xuan and Zhou Jing then left.
As time went by, more and more people gathered in the square.
Xiao Lian then led a group of people to set up tables in the square.
Naturally, a banquet will be prepared for this wedding.
In addition to the people in the square, banquets were also set up at the various strongholds of the Xingfeng Sect in the Hengduan Mountain.
About half an hour later, several more space carriers sailed in from the horizon.
The crowd in the square showed surprise upon seeing the people on the space carrier.
"Even Elder Beaver has come!"
"Wasn't it said that Elder Beaver was already in seclusion?"
"I heard that Elder Beaver is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. When that happens, our Xingfeng Sect will have its third Nascent Soul Cultivator."
Currently, only Chen Feng and Zheng Jiao have reached the Nascent Soul Xingfeng Sect.
Therefore, everyone is paying close attention to the beaver who is about to break through to the Nascent Soul.
On the space carrier.
A beaver with long green hair and stunningly beautiful features stood at the very front.
He was accompanied by Hei Jiao and He Menghan.
He Menghan is now the head of the Xingfeng Sect Moon Island branch, and she returned this time with Beaver.
Beaver glanced at the crowd below, a smile spreading across her face:
"There are quite a lot of people this time."
The black dragon observed for a while, then said, "Why don't I see Senior Zhengjiao? Isn't he here?"
Beaver said, "Senior Zhengjiao usually stays in the back mountain. Let's go see Steward Liu first, and then pay him a visit later."
The black dragon nodded.
Immediately, the group transformed into streaks of light and arrived at the plaza.
Many cultivators from the Xingfeng Sect greeted the beaver respectfully upon seeing it.
"Greetings, Elder Beaver!"
"Greetings, Elder Beaver."
Beaver was at the peak of the Golden Core stage, a future Nascent Soul expert, so the cultivators of the Xingfeng Sect naturally treated her with great respect.
For these cultivators, Mo Yang, Zhang Xuan, and the others would all turn to dust a hundred years from now.
They were respectful, but not to the point of being reverent.
But beavers are different.
As Demon Beast, the beaver has at least several thousand more years to live.
In addition, Beaver is also an elder of the Black Sea branch of the Xingfeng Sect.
He commands hundreds of thousands of Demon Beast and holds an extremely high position within the Xingfeng Sect.
Beaver responded to everyone's greetings.
He Menghan, standing nearby, was quite envious of Hailey, who was being fawned over by everyone.
Although she is now the head of the Moonlit Island branch, she is only a butler and is not even qualified to join the cabinet. She is completely incomparable to Beaver.
Moreover, rumors have already spread within the Xingfeng Sect.
In the future, the two most powerful people in the Xingfeng Sect will be Beaver and Ge Yunxuan.
Both of them were deeply trusted by Chen Feng and had long lifespans.
After Liu Qian and his group die, some of the power within the sect will fall into the hands of these two.
He Menghan investigated these materials in great detail.
So she's been in contact with the Black Sea branch lately.
Every power has factions, and only through competition can a power endure.
He Menghan chose the Beaver faction.
The group quickly arrived in front of Liu Qian Liu Qian, and Beaver clasped his hands in greeting:
"Greetings, Steward Liu."
Liu Qian nodded. "Elder Beaver, you don't need to be so polite. Don't leave now that you've returned; wait until you break through to the Nascent Soul before departing."
Liu Qian was naturally aware that the beaver was preparing to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Beaver nodded. "Yes, I came back this time to prepare for breaking through to the Nascent Soul. I'll need to trouble Steward Liu to arrange for Black Dragon to bring the things."
Upon hearing the beaver's words, the black dragon beside him immediately took out a black jade box from his person.
Liu Qian looked at the beaver in surprise. "What's this?"
The black dragon chuckled and said, "This is the demon core of a long-bearded turtle. The long-bearded turtle is a descendant of an High Antiquity Demon Beast. If a mortal consumes its demon core, it can greatly increase their lifespan. Elder Beaver specially prepared this for you, Steward Liu."
Upon hearing this, many members of the Xingfeng Sect showed expressions of envy.
Treasures that can extend lifespan are extremely valuable, no matter where they are.
He Menghan, who was standing next to her, was also somewhat surprised.
However, she also saw many different things from this.
Although Liu Qian was a mortal, Beaver still respected him greatly.
Liu Qian smiled and said, "Then I'll accept without hesitation."
Liu Qian accepted the jade box; he did not refuse the beaver's kindness.
After saying goodbye to Liu Qian, Beaver left with his men.
The beaver released her Divine Sense and quickly found Yue Yao in an area of the Xingfeng Sect's plaza.
Yue Yao was currently with Gong Qinghan, and Yue Yao's expression was quite unpleasant, as if she was saying something to Gong Qinghan.
Beaver brought He Menghan over, while Black Dragon was sent away by her.
Beaver looked at Yue Yao, who was constantly talking to Gong Qinghan, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
When Yue Yao saw that it was Beaver coming over, she immediately said, "She told the sect leader that I was the one who said the sect leader liked black stockings, which almost got me into serious trouble."
Gong Qinghan lowered her head and said, "I didn't mean to."
The beaver laughed upon hearing this, and then said:
"Sister Gong probably didn't mean it. Yue Yao, I warned you before not to talk about the sect leader so casually. The sect leader doesn't like that."
Yue Yao glanced down at the green stockings the beaver was wearing and pursed her lips:
"It seems like Beaver's tastes have changed lately; she's started liking this style."
The beaver brushed a strand of hair from her forehead and said with a smile:
"I call it following fashion, plus I like this style."
Yue Yao looked her over for a moment and nodded. "This style really suits Sister Beaver."
"Oh, right, I have something to tell you. I already spoke with the sect leader last time and asked him to make a batch of new styles of clothes for me. The sect leader must have finished making the clothes by now that he's out of seclusion. Let's go try them on later."
Upon hearing this, the girls' eyes lit up.
Although Yue Yao was unreliable in some ways, the girls never doubted her taste.
The clothes she chooses are all very nice.
Moreover, within the entire Xingfeng Sect, only Yue Yao had the audacity to ask Chen Feng to forge those kinds of clothes.
"Okay, I'll go find my sister after things are settled here," Beaver said with a smile.
Just then, the sounds of various musical instruments rang out in the distance.
Wang Hu, dressed in a bright red robe, walked over, followed by a wedding procession.
The bride sat inside the sedan chair.
Wang Hu's wife was not a stunning beauty, but just an ordinary person from his hometown village, not even a martial artist.
After Wang Hu appeared in the square, he immediately looked around, but he did not see Chen Feng.
Liu Qian then walked over and said to Wang Hu, "Let's begin the wedding."
Wang Hu shook his head. "The sect leader hasn't arrived yet."
Liu Qian said, "The sect leader might be in seclusion. We can't be late; the bride is waiting."
Wang Hu shook his head again. "If the sect leader says he'll come, then he definitely will."
A determined look appeared on Wang Hu's face.
Just as Wang Hu finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Wang Hu and Liu Qian.
This person was none other than Chen Feng, who had returned from the modern world.
Upon seeing Chen Feng appear, the previously noisy square immediately fell silent.
Everyone simultaneously knelt on one knee and shouted in unison:
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
When tens of thousands of people shout this phrase at the same time, the sound is incredibly loud.
Even people in other areas of the Hengduan Mountain heard it.
All eyes were on the imposing figure standing in the middle of the square.
Chen Feng looked at Wang Hu in front of him and helped him up:
"You're the groom today, you can't do such a grand gesture."
Helped up by Chen Feng, Wang Hu exclaimed excitedly, "Sect Leader, I knew you would come!"
"I will naturally keep my promise to you."
Chen Feng then glanced at the other people in the square and said loudly:
"Today is Wang Hu's wedding day, and also a joyous occasion for our Xingfeng Sect. Everyone, please don't be so reserved, get up."
As soon as Chen Feng finished speaking, everyone in the square immediately stood up.
However, many people's eyes were still on Chen Feng.
Especially for those who had never seen Chen Feng Chen Feng, seeing him appear this time made them extremely excited.
Chen Feng then looked at Liu Qian and said, "We can begin."
Liu Qian nodded, and then announced the start of the wedding to everyone.
The people in the square began to take their seats one by one.
Chen Feng sat on a high platform in the center of the square, where a banquet was also set up.
Wang Hu led his bride to the center of the square.
Liu Qian then served as the master of ceremonies for Wang Hu and the bride.
"I bow to Heaven and Earth!" Liu Qian shouted.
Wang Hu and the bride immediately knelt on the ground and began to perform the wedding ceremony.
When Liu Qian called out "Second Bow to the Parents"...
Wang Hu, with his bride in tow, turned and knelt before Chen Feng. He said earnestly:
"Sect Leader, my parents died young, and you changed my life, Wang Hu Wang Hu. You deserve our bow."
Seeing the sincerity on Wang Hu's face, Chen Feng nodded and did not refuse.
Wang Hu had no relatives left, but in Wang Hu heart, he had long regarded him as family.
After the entire procedure was completed, Liu Qian announced the start of the banquet.
Chen Feng sat at the head of the table, with Beaver and Yin Yin sitting on his left and right sides respectively.
Yue Yao sat next to Yin Yin.
Zhang Xuan and Mo Yang sat opposite them.
The only ones who didn't arrive were Ge Yunxuan and Zheng Jiao.
Ge Yunxuan was busy with many things in the Inner Sea, so he couldn't come.
As for why Zheng Jiao didn't come, it's because he had no interest in this kind of human wedding.
He is currently focusing on recovering from his injuries in preparation for his upcoming trip to the Inland Sea.
Wang Hu then took his bride to toast guests everywhere.
"Sect Leader, I'd like to offer you a toast."
Beaver poured Chen Feng a glass of wine and then Chen Feng him.
Chen Feng also picked up his glass and clinked it with Beaver's.
At this moment, Yin Yin said from the side, "Brother, I want to drink too."
Chen Feng shook his head and said, "Children shouldn't drink alcohol."
Yinyin immediately pouted and said:
"I'm sixteen years old, why can't I drink? Besides, I'm not a child anymore. In our village, sixteen-year-olds are already married."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng was speechless.
Sixteen years old is indeed still a child in the modern world.
But in the Painting Scroll World, let alone sixteen, even a fourteen-year-old girl is considered an adult.
"Alright, but you can only drink a little, not too much." Chen Feng didn't stop him any further.
The people standing nearby, including Liu Qian, all wore smiles.
At times like this, no one talks about serious matters; they're just having dinner with Chen Feng.
This opportunity is extremely rare for them.
Chen Feng rarely eats with them; the last time he did was several years ago.
After a few rounds of drinks, Wang Hu and his bride came over. Wang Hu said to Chen Feng:
"Sect Master, this is my wife, her name is Mei'er."
"Mei'er, quickly greet the sect leader," Wang Hu said to the woman beside him.
A woman named Mei'er blushed and bowed slightly to Chen Feng, saying, "Greetings, Sect Master."
Chen Feng smiled and nodded, "Please sit down, everyone. We're family eating together today, no need for so many formalities."
Wang Hu then led Mei'er to her seat, and after a moment's hesitation, he said:
"Sect Leader, I have a request for you."
Chen Feng smiled slightly, "Today you are the groom, so feel free to make any requests."
Wang Hu took a deep breath and then said:
"I want my future son or daughter to recognize you, the sect leader, as their godfather."
Upon hearing this, everyone at the table looked at Wang Hu with surprise.
He recognized Chen Feng as his godfather!
If Chen Feng really agrees, then Wang Hu's future descendants will definitely have a bright future.
Putting everything else aside, just the fact that the leader of the Xingfeng Sect is his adoptive father makes him practically invincible in the entire outer sea.
If someone were to simply say, "The sect leader of the Xingfeng Sect is my godfather," even some Nascent Soul stage monsters would probably have to treat him with utmost respect.
Seeing the strange looks in everyone's eyes, Wang Hu immediately said:
"I meant no other, and I will not allow my descendants to enjoy special privileges within the family; everything will depend on her own abilities!"
Chen Feng picked up his glass, took a sip, and said softly, "Okay, I agree."
Chen Feng naturally knew that Wang Hu didn't mean it that way.
Wang Hu was a rather honest and simple person, and didn't have many ulterior motives.
Upon seeing Chen Feng agree, both Wang Hu and Mei'er showed joy on their faces.
"Thank you, Sect Master!"
Seeing this, Mo Chen immediately kicked Mo Yang under the table.
Mo Yang is currently enjoying a unique dish from the modern world.
Suddenly kicked by his father, he was momentarily stunned and looked at Mo Chen with a puzzled expression.
