Chapter 2150
Outside the hall, under the eaves, and on the jade platform in front of the steps, all eyes turned to the young man in black with white hair and a faint smile, filled with an intense envy mixed with a hint of undisguised jealousy.
“I have temporarily sealed the Imperial Weapon. Now you should be able to enter the palace freely, right?” Jue Wuqing patted the shoulder of the Yao Guang Holy Lord, his smile so bright it was dazzling. “Don’t worry, I’ve come here not to start a war with you, Yao Guang, but to help a junior forge a celestial marriage.”
"Sigh, you madman, your actions are always so shocking." The Holy Lord of Yaoguang sighed helplessly. Although his face was still somewhat gloomy, he still raised his palm and waved it. As the holy light flowed in his palm, the imperial weapon formation that enveloped the main hall of the sect retreated like a tide, revealing the ancient and heavy hall door.
"Fellow Daoist Wuqing, please."
As the host, how could he not know that Jue Wuqing's actions for a junior were both a sign of his high regard for Chen Xuan and a way of giving face to the Yao Guang Holy Land?
After all, the other protagonist in this marriage was his beloved disciple, Lu Xueqi.
"Hahaha, easy, easy!" Jue Wuqing showed no politeness whatsoever, reaching out to grab the wrist of the Holy Lord Yaoguang, as if strolling through his own backyard, and swaggering into the hall.
The ten True Immortal Elders followed closely behind, and hundreds of disciples who had rushed over upon hearing the news also crowded around them – such a grand event, where an Immortal King officiates a marriage for a junior, might not happen even once in ten thousand years, so who would want to miss it?
The once spacious main hall, where echoes could be heard, was packed with people in less than half an incense stick's time: the protectors stood on the sides of the hall, the elders lined up according to seniority, and even the deacons and ordinary disciples peeked into the hall through the door, their breathing becoming slightly lighter.
Although Jue Wuqing was a Celestial King, he knew the proper etiquette for entertaining guests and did not occupy the main seat. As the most honored guest, he naturally sat in the first guest seat to the left of the sect leader's seat, with the ten elders arranged in order behind him.
At this moment, thousands of eyes in the entire hall were fixed on that figure like spotlights.
Chen Xuan stood there upright like a pine tree, his expression calm, but his ear tips were slightly burning, and his fingertips unconsciously rubbed the edge of his sleeve—even though he had once fought against the geniuses of all races, the feeling of being examined like an exhibit was quite unbearable.
The hall was eerily quiet; no one dared to speak. Everyone understood unspokenly: the two most powerful Celestial Kings were undoubtedly discussing the crucial matter of their marriage alliance.
Not long after, the Holy Lord of Yaoguang nodded helplessly to Jue Wuqing, and then raised his palm to strike the void.
"call--"
The space rippled like the surface of a lake, and a shimmering white spatial vortex slowly emerged. "Xueqi, come and see your master."
"Yes, Master." Lu Xueqi's trembling voice came from the other end of the vortex, revealing her excitement and trepidation.
As soon as the words were spoken, a figure in white stepped out of the vortex: her features were exquisite, and she wore a flowing dress of snow-white clouds. As the hem of her dress swept through the air, it condensed into tiny, shimmering ice crystals, exuding a cool, ethereal aura. It was Lu Xueqi.
Ten years ago, after Chen Xuan and others broke into the Devouring Demon Star Void, Lu Xueqi was taken back to the sect by the Holy Master Yao Guang to rebuild her foundation in immortality.
During the ranking battle, she cultivated the furnace method, resulting in a stagnant and strange aura. But upon seeing her again, Chen Xuan seemed to see the pure and innocent girl from his previous life on Blue Star, so pure that she contained not a trace of impurity.
“Brother Chen Xuan…” Lu Xueqi’s gaze pierced through the crowd, instantly locking onto the figure in black, her eyes unable to see anyone else. As soon as she stepped out of the vortex, she subconsciously called out the name from her past life, her voice filled with grievance and longing.
"Xueqi." Chen Xuan's Adam's apple bobbed as he responded softly.
Of all his Daoist partners, only Lu Xueqi was with whom he had established their relationship in the Dragon Summer Small World of his previous life.
The two had been companions since their mortal days. After they fell in love, they were separated by an endless distance for more than three hundred years. Yet, the scene of exchanging jade pendants that night was still as clear as yesterday.
