Chapter 474 The Grand Ceremony of Merit Ceremony (Part Two)



Seeing the rabbit, the brothers were all quite happy, especially Fu Ziang, who grinned like a fool.

Just as they were about to ask Rabbit to help them out, Rabbit smiled broadly, said "Good luck to you guys," and then, to the astonishment of the group of fellow apprentices, turned and ran away!

By the time the four of them came to their senses, Rabbit had already disappeared, presumably having gone back to inform Potato.

The fellow disciples exchanged glances, knowing that she wasn't the main force stopping them, so they could only smile and look at Lang Honglan and the others, constantly saying nice things and begging their three senior brothers to let them go.

The three senior brothers smiled and neither said yes nor no, but got straight to the point. By the time the four of them passed the test, it was already half an hour later.

Wiping away non-existent cold sweat, Lu Li took the lead and rushed quickly towards the inner courtyard.

After much persuasion, the palace doors were finally opened.

With a smile in his eyes, Lu Li walked in impatiently and immediately saw Shushu dressed up in a red dress.

Just then, Shushu heard the sound and looked up. Their eyes met in a clever way, and they saw each other's reflections.

It's as if there's no one else in the world but the other person.

Everyone naturally noticed the eye contact between them, and seeing that their eyes were filled with each other, everyone present smiled knowingly.

Finally, seeing that it was almost time, Xu Ruoyun gave Gu Borong a look, and Gu Borong gently nudged Lu Li, who then came back to his senses.

Then, he reached out his hand to Shushu, his voice incredibly gentle: "Junior Sister, I've come to pick you up."

Shushu nodded with a smile almost without hesitation, and after replying "Okay," she placed her hand in the other person's palm. Lu Li quickly grasped her hand in return and interlocked their fingers.

Perhaps it was because they could feel each other's warmth, or perhaps it was because the feeling of their fingers intertwined was too wonderful, but in an instant, they couldn't help but look at each other and smile again.

Before Lu Li knew it, Shushu's cheeks were flushed with a rosy blush, which made Lu Li's heart melt and his heart pound uncontrollably.

I silently recited the Heart-Cleansing Mantra several times in my heart before I calmed down a little, but only a little.

Then, as if he had thought of something, without needing anyone to remind him, he led the yam to bow to the millet and fireflies, and then left the palace.

Seeing this, Shushu's group of friends immediately followed. Shumai Liuying, Xu Ruoyun Tutu, and Shushu's senior brothers turned and headed towards the main hall after watching them leave.

When the group arrived at the main hall, most of the guests who had come to witness the ceremony were already seated. In addition, the eight palaces were mostly represented by their respective palace masters, and Hua Shi and He Xin from the Nine Star Palace were also present.

As the bride's family, they certainly had a special place, and it was quite close to the front, right next to everyone in Fengyu Palace.

As they took their seats, Immortal Venerable Lu Xu and Immortal Venerable Jing Yao also appeared on the high platform. The two of them slightly released their aura, and everyone stopped talking and looked at them.

Neither of them were the type to procrastinate; they simply said a few words of thanks and then gently clapped their hands.

Instantly, a melodious phoenix cry rang out, and petals carrying a rich ethereal aura fluttered down from the sky.

Amidst the rain of petals, a carriage slowly approached from the distant sky, riding the clouds. The carriage and the convoy gradually grew larger from a small dot, flying closer and closer.

Soon, we arrived at a place that everyone could see.

After everyone saw the convoy and its carriages, even the seasoned Immortal Emperors present couldn't help but gasp in amazement, marveling at the grand scale of the ceremony.

From afar came an extremely luxurious carriage, its entire body golden and inlaid with various top-grade immortal stones and mermaid pearls.

Pulling the chariot in front are the four most famous and ferocious beasts from ancient times to the present: Qiongqi, Taowu, Hundun, and Taotie.

The four ferocious beasts were all dressed in festive red jackets, and their usually fierce eyes were now strangely gentle.

They even had an undisguised excitement and smile. If it weren't for their size and appearance, everyone would have almost doubted whether they were really the Four Fiends.

A little behind, on either side of the carriage, were Tianluo and his group of friends, standing on either side and walking alongside the carriage, all wearing the same red jackets as the ferocious beasts.

Protecting the rear of the carriage were various mythical beasts, including phoenixes, treasure-hunting rats, dragons, qilin, black tortoises, white tigers, and nine-tailed foxes, all wearing red robes.

The entire carriage was shaped like a phoenix, and standing on it was a man and a woman dressed in red. The man was incomparably handsome, and the woman was also stunningly beautiful. They were the protagonists of today's ceremony, Shushu and Luli.

Soon, the carriage came to a steady stop on the high platform above, under the watchful eyes of everyone. The couple, surrounded by the crowd, came to the elders above.

There were many elders from both sides, sitting in two whole rows.

The two first bowed three times to everyone to express their gratitude for being raised, and then, with the support of Immortal Venerable Luofeng and Lu Xujingyao, signed the Heaven and Earth Marriage Contract in front of many guests. This is the highest contract among Daoist couples, a contract to accompany each other through life.

As the light of the contract faded, both of them could clearly feel the bond between them. They looked at each other, their eyes overflowing with undisguised affection.

Then came the time for celebration, with all sorts of divine fruits, drinks and delicacies being served. Many guests marveled at the powerful combination of ingredients and indulged in the feast.

The revelry continued until nightfall.

However, Lu Li and Shushu, the main characters, returned to their palace under the cover of night, amidst the teasing looks of everyone. Once the barrier was lifted, it blocked the prying eyes of everyone outside.

The two couldn't help but move closer and closer until they intertwined, filling the room with an intimate atmosphere, the candlelight flickering in the shy ambiance.

(This is the only way I can write it, otherwise it's a little black house, haha, you can use your imagination for the rest.)
