Chapter 37037 He is the most infatuated person in the world of cultivation
After the Zhenhai Dzi Bead was repaired, everyone got out of the water as soon as possible.
Zhuang Rong'er made the little snake return to its white python form, and sat on it herself, holding the unconscious Ah Huai in her arms.
The scene was almost identical to when they left the city gate in Liusha City. This way of appearance was indeed a bit high-profile, but surprisingly, they did not attract too much attention.
It's not that there is no one around. On the contrary, there are quite a lot of people gathered on the shore, not only those wandering cultivators who had coveted the underwater magic weapons, but also many ordinary people.
However, these people did not look towards the sea, but turned their backs to them and looked towards the streets of Zhaixing Town.
Wu Heng frowned slightly, then quickly walked to the edge of the crowd, patted a middle-aged man on the shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Excuse me, what happened here?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, looking him up and down. He still couldn't tell whether the person talking to him was a man or a woman. A man with a female voice, strange...
But he still smiled and answered, "Of course, I'm here to watch the goddess' wedding! The Tianque Sect's wedding procession has already picked up the people from Yingyue Palace and will be passing by here soon!"
"Wow." Wu Heng raised his eyebrows, "I actually received it..."
"Yes!" the middle-aged man's face was brimming with excitement. "It's said that the Young Sect Master is here to pick them up personally. He's leading the way, wielding the Mysterious Emperor Sword, and behind him are the 88-zhang-long Tianque Sect team. The goddess' moonlit sedan chair is surrounded in the center. It's a magnificent spectacle that's too grand to look at directly! They're heading towards our town right now. When we see the colorful phoenix appear in the sky, we'll know they're almost here!"
"So mysterious? Is the sedan chair empty?"
After hearing Wu Heng's words, the middle-aged man immediately retorted, "How is that possible? The people saw it with their own eyes. The goddess's white hair seemed to be covered with moonlight, and she even waved to the people below! She is truly a perfect match for that peerless young master..."
The monk had sharp hearing and was able to relay the information clearly, but the people behind him could hear the conversation between Wu Heng and others.
What a coincidence, they also have a goddess with white hair here, but her hair does not seem to be covered with moonlight, but rather looks a little messy.
Nian You's expression suddenly changed.
"Hiss, hiss..." The white python spit out its tongue.
Although no one has translated it, everyone can hear that it must be asking: Where does the second Nianyou come from?
"Didn't you foresee your current situation?" Zhuang Rong'er said lightly.
Nianyou was speechless and could only lower his eyes in deep thought.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
Zhuang Rong'er patted the little snake's head, signaled it to shut up with her eyes, and then said, "Let's go and take a look."
If there really is another "Nianyou" that can be mistaken for the real thing, then there must be something fishy about it.
She has come into contact with too many similar or even identical people recently: Ah Huai and Jing Huai, the phantom in the illusion and Nightmare Lady.
So, she really wanted to know, was the situation Nianyou was facing at the moment more like the former combination or the latter combination?
Could the other "Nianyou" who dressed up as her in the sedan chair and married on her behalf be the Yan Ji who was put into a jade necklace by the Palace Master of Yingyue Palace and disappeared?
After Wu Heng asked the questions, he walked back to them. The middle-aged man followed the direction he left and saw the white python on the shore. He was frightened and screamed while pulling the people beside him to run away.
The noise he made spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and now everyone noticed the strange combination of Zhuang Rong'er and her group.
The main reason was that the little snake in the form of a giant python was too intimidating. The people's expectation of the goddess passing by was replaced by another kind of fear. They all moved away from this place, and the alley that was blocked by people was empty in less than a minute, leaving a wide road for Zhuang Rong'er and the others.
"Well, the existence of two Nianyous is confirmed," Wu Heng suddenly asked. "Then how can we be sure that the Nianyou following us right now is the real Nianyou? Is there any magic in this world that can replicate a person?"
Nian You's face turned pale when he asked this question, and he really started looking for a way to prove himself.
"I, I am naturally myself, how can I be fake..."
She was speechless for a moment, but Zhuang Rong'er spoke at the right moment: "Why bother creating a fake Nianyou, throwing her into the sea, and sending her to her death?"
"That's right... the unlucky one is definitely true." Wu Heng said with a smile.
“Hiss…”
Shu Qianhe had remained silent until then, but now she cryptically asked, "Uncle Master, have you forgotten Nightmare Lady? Doesn't she have the magic to replicate people?"
Wu Heng's expression froze slightly, and he pretended not to hear anything, changing the subject. "Well, the path's been cleared. Why don't we go forward and take a look... Look, that dazzling light in the sky, isn't that the colorful phoenix at the head of the ceremonial procession?"
…
"Here I come, finally I can catch a glimpse of the goddess!"
"That cultivator flying on a sword must be the young master of the Tianque Sect! The rumors are true... the rumors are true! He has a truly stunning appearance!"
The most dazzling person in the wedding procession was the young master of Tianque Sect - Yu Huansheng, who was said to be the most handsome man in the world of cultivation.
He is indeed good-looking, but...
Shu Qianhe secretly raised her eyes and glanced at Junior Brother A Huai, who was lying in Zhuang Rong'er's arms with only half of his profile exposed.
She thought to herself, the reason why Junior Brother Ahuai didn't have a good reputation was because he didn't have a good background, right?
If he stayed in Wujimen and showed his true identity, he might be able to crush Yu Huansheng under his feet...
Yu Huansheng was indeed very handsome, but that was a kind of good-looking appearance that was as non-impactful as water, soft and non-aggressive, with warm eyes and a calm temperament, like a piece of polished round jade.
Speaking of which, this temperament is somewhat similar to Qinghai Tower... but it is far less complex and dangerous than Qinghai Tower.
Gazing from afar, they immediately saw Yu Huansheng standing tall and graceful, like a god from heaven.
Behind him, the entire wedding procession almost covered the entire sky. It was huge and majestic, with monks, palace maids, and auspicious birds and beasts interspersed among them.
The moonlit sedan chair that had been seen many times before had turned into a red-painted flying sedan chair with red pillars, and the festive atmosphere was almost overflowing.
The curtain of the sedan chair was half-drawn, and a woman with white hair and red clothes could be vaguely seen sitting inside. It seemed that she knew how much the people below wanted to see her clearly, so a pair of slender hands reached out from the curtain, hooked the curtain, and the next second, the beautiful face of the woman was revealed.
The birthmark on her face looked like a teardrop of pity for all living beings. She truly deserved the title of goddess...
Many people actually bowed down, and some whispered, "May the goddess protect all living beings!"
Some people also shouted loudly: "May the goddess and the young master be together forever!"
Zhuang Rong'er glanced at the figure in the sedan chair who lowered the curtain again, and a cold look appeared in her eyes.
“How could this happen?” Nian You muttered to herself, digging her nails into her palms. “I must go and question the Palace Master…”
He knew clearly that the real goddess Nian You had not yet returned from the Starry Sea... He knew clearly...
But he was able to send another "Nianyou" to allow the wedding to proceed as scheduled.
All of this was within his expectations... Then, did the people of Tianque Sect know about this? Did they know that the goddess they received was actually a fake?
"Why do you need to go back and question me? I'm afraid the Palace Master of Yingyue Palace is worried that you are not dead."
Zhuang Rong'er put the still unconscious Ah Huai down from her arms and handed him to the little snake, telling it to wrap him up and protect him properly. Then she continued, "If someone takes your place, then you have to take it back yourself."
"I just don't understand why he did this? If the substitute bride scandal is exposed, where will my Yingyue Palace and the people here be?!" Nian You was trembling all over.
"It's simple. He doesn't think you can come out alive and expose the 'scandal'."
As she spoke, Zhuang Rong'er had already flown up. She put her arms around Nian You's waist and took her straight to the long formation in the sky.
"Valley Master..." Nian You was still in shock. She wanted to make a long-term plan, but she didn't have the chance. Zhuang Rong'er acted decisively and took her up to intercept the ceremonial team!
She gritted her teeth, knowing that the only way to avoid being counterattacked by her uncle was to catch the other party off guard!
If you make a mistake out of concern for your reputation, you might completely miss the opportunity...
Yu Huansheng, who was at the front, was the first to notice the external force. He subconsciously adjusted his sword-controlling skills and drew his sword to meet the enemy, but was stunned for a moment when he saw the faces of Zhuang Rong'er and Nian You.
The crowd below was in an uproar: "Look! Someone is trying to steal the bride!"
"Who is it? Could it be one of the old lovers of the Young Master of Tianque Sect?"
"This man is famous for his beauty. If our goddess marries him, who knows how many more rivals she will have! Look, there are two of them trying to steal the bride!"
The commotion was getting more and more intense. If mortals could also ascend, they would probably fill the air and block the scene.
The cultivators were even more chattering. Someone with sharp eyes recognized Zhuang Rong'er and immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Master Zhuang of Cuihuan Valley?! Are the rumors true? She and Yu Huansheng really had a relationship back then!"
"No, the key is the person next to her. Why does she look so much like the goddess in the sedan chair? Not only the white hair, but also the face..."
"Never mind, this is too shocking! This marriage was decided by both Yingyue Palace and Tianque Sect. It's extremely embarrassing that it has come to this! I really don't know how it will end..."
Wu Heng and Shu Qianhe below were also shocked by this sudden change.
Zhuang Rong'er's speed of action was too fast, and they couldn't keep up with her thinking at all!
"Uncle-master, do we also need to go up and help?" Shu Qianhe asked in a trembling voice.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of her previous life.
During the three months of chaos, the most iconic event was the prophecy uttered by the goddess Nian You with blood in her eyes on her wedding day: "The Abyss will reappear and the world will be destroyed." After that, powerful people fell one after another, and natural and man-made disasters occurred one after another, which was exactly the trend towards fulfilling the prophecy.
However, was the goddess who got married in the previous life really Nianyou herself?
Or is it... an imposter that has never been exposed?
If this is true, then the authenticity of the so-called prophecy is questionable! Its purpose is even more sinister!
"You and I represent the Wuji Sect after all, so it's not appropriate to intervene right now..." Wu Heng had barely finished his words when he saw the sky becoming increasingly chaotic. Zhuang Rong'er and Nian You, who were alone, were surrounded by palace servants and attendants who had reacted. Yu Huansheng even drew his sword. He quickly changed the subject, saying, "But the situation is urgent right now. We can't just stand by and watch. Let's go over there too, at least to stop those confused soldiers!"
Shu Qianhe quickly agreed, and the uncle and nephew jumped up and joined the battle without thinking.
For a moment, only the little snake was left standing there, banging its tail frantically. However, its only task at the moment was to protect the unconscious Ah Huai, so it could not go forward to help its master at all.
I don’t know if it was the noise it made in its anxiety that acted as a catalyst, but Ah Huai, who was trapped in the center of its python body, frowned slightly, his eyelids rolled, and his eyelashes trembled, as if he was about to wake up.
Finally, the eyes slowly opened, and the haziness in them was washed away by the daylight, but for a moment they were unable to grasp the current state of Pang Duo's elements.
He was no longer under the Starry Sea. The prototype of the little snake was leaning against him, and Zhuang Rong'er was no longer beside him.
The surrounding noises were too chaotic. Ah Huai listened for two seconds before he heard the first clear and excited exclamation from among the numerous words.
"Here she is! A hundred years ago, Zhuang Rong'er was desperate for Yu Huansheng, and now, a hundred years later, she's leading a gang to snatch the bride away on the spot... If you ask me, she's truly the most infatuated person in the world of cultivation!"
“…”
Ah Huai's eyes moved slightly and he looked sideways.
