Ch 203: Grand Wedding

Not being able to go out to play naturally made Zhao Xiangzi very distressed, but the group did not live in the City Lord’s Mansion for long. After only a few days, Zhao Xiangzi and Lin Yu were heavily guarded to the Lan Lake Manor prepared for them by Zhao Mingde.

The reason why this Lan Lake Manor is called Lan Lake Manor is because there is an artificial lake of dozens of acres in the manor’s garden. The lake is called Lan Lake. More than a dozen small courtyards have been built by the lake, all built according to the styles of different star fields, allowing Zhao Xiangzi to experience the customs of different star fields in her own home.

Bai Jinzhu Huakong naturally came to Lan Lake Manor with them. Since this was Zhao Xiangzi’s own manor, Zhao Xiangzi let everyone live in the small courtyards around Lan Lake in the manor.

Even Bai Jintong brought the Bai Family’s guards to live next to the small courtyard where Bai Jinzhu Huakong lived, and the standard of living has been improved more than a little.

Because the manor is vast, there are also hundreds of retainers and guards in the manor who specially take care of and protect Zhao Xiangzi, so when she came here, Zhao Xiangzi had to arrange some things from time to time, but now that Lin Yu has also moved in, these things are all taken care of by Lin Yu.

Although the old steward was a little worried about this, the manor was only dozens of miles away from the City Lord’s Mansion, and even if Lin Yu wanted to do something bad, he wouldn’t be able to cause any trouble, so he didn’t say anything more.

After arriving at the manor, Zhao Xiangzi could no longer play every day, because the front part of the manor was a formal palace complex, which was actually a small village. She needed to participate in the management of administration, offices, granaries, armories, and family temples. Although most of the things were left to Lin Yu, she couldn’t let Lin Yu replace her in worshiping her ancestors!

Many things still required Zhao Xiangzi to participate in personally. What’s more, the manor had already been decorated and began to prepare for the grand wedding ceremony. The old steward took Zhao Xiangzi and Lin Yu through the entire process.

Zhao Xiangzi couldn’t avoid these trivial matters even if she wanted to. In this way, Bai Jinzhu Huakong became idle. Unlike Zhao Xiangzi, Bai Jinzhu didn’t like to play. She got up early every day to dress up and went to have breakfast after dressing herself beautifully.

After breakfast, she would also take Huakong for a walk by Lan Lake, and then she would go back to read story books and listen to music, which was very leisurely and casual, and she looked like a standard young lady from a noble family.

At noon, Bai Jinzhu would take a nap after lunch. At this time, she would not ask Huakong to accompany her. Huakong took this opportunity to take the imitation Immortal King Golden Staff to the meditation room and asked the Artifact Spirit Wan Dao to deduce the Nine Tribulation Yin-Yang Refining Spirit Formation array diagram.

And he carefully recorded the details of the array diagram’s depiction. With the help of the Artifact Spirit Wan Dao, the deduction efficiency of the array diagram was greatly improved. Huakong estimated that he could complete the deduction of the array diagram in less than ten years, and then he could start to depict the formation!

This was a great improvement compared to the previous deduction time of hundreds of years. It is estimated that not long after the wedding, the three people’s Realm Lord avatars will be successfully created!

In this way, a few days passed in a hurry, and the wedding ceremony officially began on the auspicious day chosen by the Zhao Family!

On this day, the guests who were invited to attend the wedding arrived early. Light Boats shuttled through the sky above the manor that was hundreds of miles away, and there were also thousands of Light Boats floating in the air.

In the morning, Zhao Xiangzi and Lin Yu both worshiped the ancestral tablets in the family temple, offered incense to their ancestors, and then went to the main hall to pay respects to the Zhao Family elders.

As Zhao Xiangzi’s good friend, Bai Jinzhu accompanied Zhao Xiangzi all the way, reminding Zhao Xiangzi of some details, after all, she was someone who had been married once.

Huakong took Lin Yu’s family to meet the Zhao Family’s elders. Although the Lin Family had entered the World of Light for some years, the truly powerful ones were still a few elders. This time, Old Ancestor Lin Xingzhou, who had not been seen for a long time, specially rushed from Bai Mei Star to Jinghai Star, but he had only just entered the Realm Lord Realm, and had not even officially reached the first level of the Realm Lord.

When facing the Zhao Family, he was very emotional. He never expected that he had cultivated for countless years, but he couldn’t even get a number in the Zhao Family, so he politely got to know the Zhao Family members, without the pride of the past.

After all, the Zhao Family was a local overlord, with countless relatives and friends. Each family only sent one person, and no less than ten thousand people gathered in the manor. Fortunately, they were all decent people. Everyone entered the Hall of Heroes, which was specially used for banquets, according to the arrangement of the invitation, and did not walk around the manor.

Although Zhao Xiangzi’s manor has hundreds of acres of land and many palaces on it, they all have their own functions and cannot be used for banquets, so the Hall of Heroes that everyone entered was a Space Magical Item that Huakong was very familiar with. The space inside was extremely large, with tens of thousands of miles of land.

After everyone entered it, they were arranged in a huge building. The structure of this building was very similar to an auction with boxes. Around the central high platform, twelve floors of boxes were built, with ten people in each box, which accommodated all these guests.

And there was a huge space in the basement of the building, which was used to prepare wine and food for the guests. The Zhao Family’s servants had already come here months ago to prepare these delicacies, and now they just needed to bring them out.

Some people may doubt, food from months ago, wouldn’t it be spoiled?

Of course not. The World of Light has an extremely high level of understanding of the Laws of Space-Time, and there are a large number of Magical Artifacts that can greatly reduce the flow of time within the formation, so that the delicacies that were put in months ago are still steaming when they are taken out at this time, and there is no difference from what was just made.

The dishes were of course carefully purchased and prepared. Although they were not as high-end as the private banquets when Zhao Xiangzi went out to play, the dishes were still very expensive delicacies.

In addition to the special high-end seafood spiritual dishes on Jinghai Star, some special ingredients were also purchased from other star fields to make many dishes to satisfy the preferences of different guests.

In the afternoon, the guests had almost arrived. Zhao Xiangzi and Lin Yu also entered the Hall of Heroes to talk to familiar guests. This was not only to show respect for the guests, but also to introduce Lin Yu to the Zhao Family’s relatives and friends.

Most importantly, the guests had to present their congratulatory gifts in front of the bride and groom.

Ten people came up at a time and put their congratulatory gifts into the four large tripods around the high platform. These large tripods were of course also Space Magical Items, and Zhao Xiangzi and Lin Yu on the stage bowed to express their gratitude.

In the evening, the wedding ceremony began. The wedding customs in the World of Light were actually very similar to those in the Lower Realm, which was the traditional wedding process.

Lin Yu and Zhao Xiangzi wore bright red palace costumes and stepped over the brazier in the eyes of everyone, worshiped Heaven and Earth and their parents, performed the ceremony of exchanging hair after the husband and wife bowed to each other, and then the two symbolically toasted the guests in all directions on the high platform for a few cups of wine, and then entered the bridal chamber. The whole process was very grand and gorgeous, and also very short.

The Zhao Family would naturally not let the guests present feel neglected. Soon, the leading actors and courtesans that the Zhao Family had spent a lot of money to invite from various main stars took the stage one by one and began to show their figures and voices. The guests ate delicacies while listening to the beauties that were usually rare to see, and the atmosphere naturally became lively.

The Zhao Family also found hundreds of children from the family and began to distribute the Zhao Family’s return gifts table by table, a bottle of thirty high-grade Enlightenment Pills and a jar of wedding candy. This bottle of pills was quite expensive, at least 20,000 Light Stones or more. Nearly ten thousand guests each had one, which was a very large sum.

Zhao Xiangzi and Lin Yu, who had entered the bridal chamber, were staying in the palace they had first moved into. This palace was huge, and although the materials used were expensive and gorgeous, it seemed to have no other purpose than to show off its strength. The formations inside were running, and the Power of Light was surging, but it was a little cold, and the lights were quite dim.

The main hall was empty. In addition to the two rows of thick pillars, there was a large bed in the middle. The maids at the palace gate helped the two to the bedside and then retreated to the gate and closed the door.

“Why is it so cold here!”, Lin Yu said in confusion.

“Little Yu! Don’t be distracted! Don’t you know what to do now?”, Zhao Xiangzi said speechlessly.

“Oh! Okay! Okay!”, Lin Yu quickly picked up the jade scepter by the bed and lifted the red veil on Zhao Xiangzi’s head, and Zhao Xiangzi’s pretty face appeared in front of Lin Yu.

“Madam!”, Lin Yu solemnly saluted Zhao Xiangzi.

“Husband!”, Zhao Xiangzi also saluted.

“Madam, let’s consummate our marriage!”, Today, Zhao Xiangzi’s makeup was exquisite and her eyes were full of affection, which made Lin Yu feel hot in his heart.

“Hmph! It’s not like we’re short of this moment! Where’s your Light Boat!?”, Zhao Xiangzi raised her eyebrows and said seriously.

“Uh! Ah!?”, Lin Yu was a little confused.

“Where’s the Light Boat? Where are your young women?”, Zhao Xiangzi’s face was stern, and she didn’t seem to be joking.

“Do you really want to see it!?”, Lin Yu was a little unsure.

“Yes!”, Zhao Xiangzi stared into Lin Yu’s eyes and said.

“Okay!”, Lin Yu gritted his teeth and went all out. He took out the Light Boat that Huakong had made for him from the Storage Bracelet, enlarged it into the appearance of a small boat, and placed it in the hall.

“Madam! Please!”, Lin Yu raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

“Hmph!”, Zhao Xiangzi glared at Lin Yu and jumped onto the small boat, pushed open the small door, and walked in.

“Sigh~~”, Seeing Zhao Xiangzi enter his Light Boat, Lin Yu knew that he couldn’t avoid this matter today, so he gritted his teeth and followed in.

After walking through the slightly dim ‘tunnel’, when he saw the light again, Lin Yu had already arrived outside the city on the main star of his Light Boat Small World.

At this time, Zhao Xiangzi was standing outside the city gate, looking at the city called ‘Divine Capital’. Her arrival obviously surprised the guards at the city gate, but the guards knew that since this person could enter this place, she must have been approved by Lin Yu, so they didn’t take any further action.

“Is this what Yu Yu’s hometown is like!?”, Zhao Xiangzi asked, looking at the rather ordinary city in front of her.

“Yes!”, Lin Yu said with a faint smile, feeling very calm and peaceful in his heart. His family should also know about it.

“Go and meet your women!”, Zhao Xiangzi said lightly.

“Okay!”, Lin Yu didn’t say much and took Zhao Xiangzi into his city first.

“Old Ancestor Yu is back! Pay attention to avoid him!”

“Old Ancestor Yu is back! Pay attention to avoid him!”

“Old Ancestor Yu is back! Pay attention to avoid him!”

The leader of the City Defense Army immediately ran down the city wall and cleared the way in front of Lin Yu, shouting loudly to remind the pedestrians on the road.

Most of the people in the city were the Lin Family’s disciples who had followed Lin Yu all the way, some were the Tian Yuan Sect’s disciples who were loyal to Lin Yu, and there were also the families and vassals of Lin Yu’s women, and of course, some Immortal Realm cultivators who were friendly with the Purple Flame Fairy.

“Congratulations to Old Ancestor Yu on his wedding! Welcome Old Ancestor Yu! Welcome Mistress!”

“Congratulations to Old Ancestor Yu on his wedding! Welcome Old Ancestor Yu! Welcome Mistress!”

“Congratulations to Old Ancestor Yu on his wedding! Welcome Old Ancestor Yu! Welcome Mistress!”

The pedestrians on the roadside saw the two people dressed as bride and groom and knelt or half-knelt and shouted loudly. The two of them came all the way to the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion.

The movement here had already alarmed the women in the City Lord’s Mansion. Previously, the Purple Flame Fairy had always been the leader among Lin Yu’s women. At this time, she naturally guarded outside the City Lord’s Mansion, and the dozens of charming women that Lin Yu had taken stood behind her, looking at the newly arrived Zhao Xiangzi with bright colors.

“Hmph! You stinky guy! I’m the first wife!”, When Zhao Xiangzi saw that these women were all very beautiful, she immediately became jealous.

“Uh, Xiangxiang! Sister Ziyan is actually older than you!”, Lin Yu said in a low voice. Although Ning Ziyan’s strength had only just entered the Realm Lord Realm, her age was actually much greater than Zhao Xiangzi.

“I don’t care! I’m the strongest! I want to be the first wife!”, Zhao Xiangzi started to act like a spoiled child.

“Uh…”, Lin Yu was about to say something, but was interrupted by the Purple Flame Fairy.

“Little Yu, let her be the first wife!”, the Purple Flame Fairy said directly.

“Ah!?”, Lin Yu was stunned. So easy?

“Zhao girl, come here!”, the Purple Flame Fairy said lightly, taking out a bunch of keys and holding them in her hand.

“Ah!? Me!?”, It was Zhao Xiangzi’s turn to be surprised. Although her strength was much higher than the Purple Flame Fairy, Ning Ziyan’s aura as a former hero who dominated one side was even stronger than hers.

“Yes! This is for you!”, the Purple Flame Fairy handed over the keys in her hand.

“Uh… or should I forget it?”, Zhao Xiangzi understood that Ning Ziyan was going to give way, but she herself retreated.

“Hehe, no need to be polite, come on!”, Looking at Zhao Xiangzi’s timid appearance, Ning Ziyan found it a little funny.

“No… no, you keep it!”, Zhao Xiangzi waved her hand without moving.

“Don’t you want to consider it?”, Ning Ziyan asked lightly.

“No need! You keep it!”, Zhao Xiangzi said firmly.

“Okay! Hello! My name is Ning Ziyan!”, Zhao Xiangzi cupped her fists and said.

“Hello! My name is Zhao Xiangzi!”, Zhao Xiangzi also pretended to cup her fists and said.

“Let’s go inside and talk!”, Ning Ziyan made a gesture of invitation, and the women behind her quickly made way.

“Sister, please first… uh! Oh no!”, Zhao Xiangzi said subconsciously, and suddenly froze again.

“Haha! Then I won’t be polite!”, Ning Ziyan didn’t say anything more, glanced at Lin Yu, and took the lead into the City Lord’s Mansion.
