Many Taoist sects, including Shushan Sect, Tianyong City, Fenxiang Valley, and Tianyin Temple, sent people to attend the ceremony.
Tian Buyi raised the corners of his mouth with great pride. He had extensive connections in the cultivation world and was on good terms with people from all the major righteous sects.
Three days later.
On the wedding day.
"I bow to Heaven and Earth!"
"Bowing to the parents twice!"
"Husband and wife bow to each other!"
Murong Fu was very familiar with the process and successfully completed the wedding.
An elder from Burning Incense Valley spoke up: "Chief Tian, your disciple is no ordinary person. Although his cultivation is only at the first level of Qi Refining, he shows no stage fright when facing us Nascent Soul cultivators. He has an extraordinary demeanor and will surely achieve great things in the future."
Tian Buyi's lips twitched slightly. What did he mean by "certainly destined for greatness"? It was clearly mocking his son-in-law for only being at the first level of Qi Refining.
If it weren't for the fear of causing unnecessary misunderstandings, Tian Buyi would have really wanted Murong Fu to reveal his Golden Core stage cultivation.
Tian Buyi said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Qingchi, I have always valued character more. As long as you are good to my daughter, it doesn't matter if your cultivation is a little lower."
“Well said!” Cangsong chimed in, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
"I think this is why Junior Brother Tian never looks at the aptitude of his disciples, and all of his disciples are at the Foundation Establishment stage."
"What use is mere cultivation? In a thousand years, we'll all just be a handful of dust. Junior Brother Tian's disciples will only be buried nine hundred years earlier than us."
Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.
"Junior Brother Cangsong! What are you doing!"
The sect leader, Dao Xuan Zhenren, slammed his hand on the table, clearly displeased.
On such a joyous occasion, the two chief disciples were still mocking each other. Were they trying to let the entire cultivation world know that the Qingyun Sect was constantly embroiled in internal strife?
"Am I wrong?" Cangsong shrugged with a mocking expression. "That Murong Fu has such outstanding talent, yet after three whole months at Junior Brother Tian's Dazhu Peak, he's still only at the first level of Qi Refining."
“A few days ago, my new disciple Lin Jingyu reached the second level of Qi Refining in just one month.”
“Let’s take another look. Zhang Xiaofan, who also started learning a month ago, still can’t even draw Qi into his body when he arrives at Dazhu Peak!”
Lin Jingyu, standing beside him, stood tall and proud.
Zhang Xiaofan, sitting in the corner, lowered his head in dismay.
Before Cangsong could finish speaking, a cold smile played on his lips as he pointed at Tian Buyi, his emotions running high:
"Such an incompetent teacher is misleading students!"
"I think it's because Murong Fu depleted his vital energy and became obsessed with matters of men and women that he neglected his cultivation."
"Tian Buyi, as your master, you should be the first to bear the brunt!"
"Get married? Have a wedding?"
"Pah! Disgusting! Absolutely disgusting!"
"..."
Everyone fell silent. To say such things at someone else's wedding was truly disrespectful.
It seems that this time, the feud between Dazhu Peak and Longshou Peak is truly over.
The many onlookers looked at each other with fervent eyes, all with expressions of excitement.
That's interesting, so very interesting.
This is much more interesting than a wedding.
Tian Buyi's face darkened, and his Crimson Flame Sword was already drawn: "Cangsong! I think you want to fight me!"
The Crimson Flame Sword was entirely fiery red, radiating astonishing heat.
"I'd be happy to oblige!"
Cangsong sneered, and the Dragon-Slaying Sword was also drawn. The sword was shaped like a dragon and could be faintly heard roaring like a dragon.
Dao Xuan couldn't stand it any longer. If they were really allowed to make a move, the Qingyun Sect would become a complete laughingstock.
"Enough! If you two utter another word, I will send you both to the Ancestral Temple for ten years of confinement!"
The oppressive aura of Dao Xuan Zhenren at the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage caused everyone present to feel a chill.
As expected of one of the leaders of the righteous path, such cultivation level is probably not far from the Nascent Soul stage!
Just as everyone was silent.
Murong Fu stepped forward.
Everyone looked over, curious about what the groom was going to say.
Murong Fu spoke loudly: "Master, Uncle Cangsong, and Uncle Sect Leader, it's all my fault. I lied to you about something."
"What is it?"
Dao Xuan looked at Murong Fu with a complicated expression.
Everyone initially thought this child was exceptionally talented and would surely shine brightly, but after three months, he had only managed to reach the first level of Qi Refining, which was truly astonishing.
"Actually, I had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage. I broke through just three days ago."
Murong Fu released his Foundation Establishment stage aura and continued:
"I shared the good news with my master's wife as soon as possible, but she said, 'The tallest tree in the forest will be felled by the wind.'"
"Therefore, my master's wife gave me a magical artifact to conceal my presence and instructed me to always keep a low profile."
"I never expected that this matter would cause a conflict between Master and Uncle Cangsong. It is truly my fault!"
Murong Fu looked extremely ashamed as he said this.
I was stunned.
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other in bewilderment once again.
"You've reached the Foundation Establishment stage?"
Cangsong was shocked. He had just been praising Lin Jingyu for being at the first level of Qi Refining, but then Murong Fu suddenly revealed his Foundation Establishment cultivation.
Master Shuiyue, the abbot of Xiaozhu Peak, was also shocked: "How is this possible?"
The beautiful young woman Lu Xueqi beside him gazed at him intently.
She began cultivating at the age of eight and spent ten years establishing her foundation, while the man before her only took three months…
Lin Yueru couldn't help but interject, "You're kidding, right? How could it be Foundation Establishment in three months? You haven't been cultivating since you were a child and only recently broke through, have you?"
"Yueru! When adults are speaking, juniors should not interrupt!"
Although Lin Tiannan stopped his daughter, he was equally incredulous.
Murong Fu smiled at Lin Yueru and explained:
“Miss Yue Ru, my master’s wife said that my physique is special. I once fused the blood of the Ice Phoenix and the blood of the Fire Qilin, so I have long accumulated a lot of energy. Later, my cultivation techniques were just to convert this energy into magic power.”
Su Ru immediately stepped forward and said:
"That's right, indeed. Fu'er has a special constitution, so his cultivation is faster in the early stages, but he needs to settle down slowly later, otherwise he is prone to developing inner demons. This is also why we arranged for him to marry Ling'er, so that he can experience the mortal world and temper his will."
After hearing Su Ru's explanation, everyone suddenly understood.
Lin Tiannan glanced at his lively and active daughter, wondering if he should let her experience the world's trials as well.
Tang Kun also glanced at his granddaughter Tang Xuejian. Speaking of which, Tang Xuejian's state of mind has been unstable recently and she needs to be tempered.
Even Master Shuiyue looked thoughtful, because Lu Xueqi's smooth sailing made her mental state unstable, and she was very likely to develop inner demons when she broke through to the Golden Core stage or even the Nascent Soul stage.
