Today is a joyous occasion! Every household is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, reminiscent of the Lantern Festival.
"For no other reason than today is the auspicious day for the Great Sage Who Subdued Demons to get married, a day chosen by Hu Tao, the head of the Rebirth Hall. What's wrong with someone in the funeral business knowing a little about feng shui?" Hu Tao said.
Early in the morning, Xiao and Wendy were dragged to do makeup and styling. Xiao's cheeks were slightly red, but he did not resist. Wendy yawned, seemingly not caring.
Waaah, does anyone in my family understand? I finally dreamt that Diluc was giving me wine, and then I was pulled out of bed.
Wendy thought angrily, letting the makeup artist and hairstylist do whatever they wanted to her face.
According to Liyue's customs, the bride's family should hold a banquet or something similar, but Venti doesn't have any family, at least that's what he says, so this step is omitted.
However, Venti still personally cooked a True Wind God Stew. The Liyue girls who had been brought in as bridesmaids stared wide-eyed as Venti fiddled with the stove, which was slightly shorter than him. But when they thought about how the bride had no family, they suddenly felt sorry for her.
If Wendy knew what these girls were thinking, he'd be furious. He has family! The entire Mondstadt is his family!
Wendy opened the live stream room, and almost all the viewers from Blue Star came.
For no other reason than that I miss them so much.
"Here I am, here I am, I'm number one! Gently place my jade-like buttocks~"
"What is Wendy doing?"
"Wow! Wow, that was fast! The first thing I saw was the wedding dress!"
"Holy crap! This is amazing! The first thing I saw when I arrived was that my favorite couple got married!"
"Damn! I woke up so fast! Wait, I just woke up!"
"They're married! They're married! Congratulations to Xiao and Wendy on their marriage!"
On the streets, the Thousand Rock Army maintained order, preventing the enthusiastic (and sometimes chaotic) Liyue people from disrupting the wedding ceremony. The pressure from above was immense; it was said that the Celestials had spoken up, and the Liyue Seven Stars had taken the lead in this matter. With the Celestials and the Seven Stars working together to exert pressure, one can imagine how much pressure the Thousand Rock Army was under.
Xiao walked in front, followed by the bridal sedan chair and four sedan chair bearers. In Xiao's hand was a wedding invitation written by Zhongli himself. Zhongli, who was particular about everything, used the highest-grade wedding invitation. As Xiao walked in front, each step felt incredibly heavy, yet he also felt extremely light. This contradictory feeling made Xiao suddenly a little timid.
Even so, Xiao still arrived at the door of Wendy's house. He took a deep breath and stepped forward. Several bridesmaids opened firecrackers to welcome the Great Sage Who Subdued Demons. Xiao nodded slightly to the bridesmaids and handed the wedding invitation to Wendy. Wendy opened it, and the characters on it were magnificent and bold, clearly written by Zhongli.
After accepting the wedding invitation, Xiao and Wendy went inside. On the table was only a bowl of True Wind God Stew, but there were two pairs of chopsticks.
After a very simple breakfast, Wendy was helped into the bridal sedan chair by her bridesmaids.
"The bride is out! The bride is out!"
"It looks really good."
"Yes, he has an extraordinary temperament and is a perfect match for the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons."
"This is the first time the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons has ever been married..."
After the bride came out, the people started talking about it, and the viewers in the live broadcast room were also talking about it.
"It looks so good! I thought I was seeing things. It suits me so well!"
"Waaaaah, Mom has such a beautiful face. Lady Wendy's face is always so handsome, no matter what."
"Waaah, we're finally married!" The old mother shed tears.
After getting into the bridal sedan chair, Xiao still walked in front, followed by the sedan chair itself, and then the bridesmaids.
The route taken has changed. When Xiao came before, he took the route closer to the sea, but now he is taking the most bustling road in Liyue Harbor, which means he will not be going back the way he came.
Wendy yawned inside the bridal sedan chair. So many rituals, so complicated! Ugh, this is how meticulous the old man is...
Who understands this? Why is Zhongli so particular about this?
Jean and Diluc had been waiting with Zhongli, and they were also shocked when they saw Wendy being helped down from the sedan chair by her bridesmaids.
“Miss Jean and Mr. Diluc, as the bride’s parents, there were some ceremonies that you should have been involved in, but you’ve only just arrived… well, never mind…” Zhongli said, looking at Jean and Diluc, who had only recently arrived in Liyue. “I’m sorry,” Jean said.
Next came the wedding ceremony. Zhongli and Qin represented Xiao and Wendy's parents. Xiao and Wendy then bowed to heaven and earth, bowed to their parents, bowed to each other, and finally had the wedding banquet.
After the banquet, the wedding night games began...
However, among all the people in Liyue, only Yingda and Fanan dared to disrupt the wedding night of the Demon Slayer. Yet, even when they tried to disrupt the wedding night, both of them were ruthlessly driven out by Xiao.
What follows is something we won't be able to see...
However, when Yingdafan occasionally eavesdropped, he actually overheard some things.
"Hmm..."
"pain......"
"Let me rest, please..."
The rest, I couldn't hear.
All I can say is that the sound insulation is indeed very good.
It's such a shame I didn't overhear anything exciting.
After the two of them came out, they were already dressed. They went to find Zhongli and completed the final ceremony.
"Very good." Looking at Xiao's flushed face and Wendy, who was practically bowing her head to the ground, Zhongli smiled and branded Wendy with his hand. "? Grandpa, what are you doing?" Wendy was stunned. "It's nothing, it won't harm you," Zhongli said. "Next, you're going to Blue Star, right? Well, it's a rare vacation for Xiao."
“Lord Zhongli, we’re off then,” Xiao said. Zhongli nodded and then took out a small celestial star.
“Wear it,” Zhongli said. Xiao nodded, put it around his neck, and then Wendy and Xiao arrived on Earth.
The two appeared in the same place she had left last time. Inside the villa, Wendy turned her head and made a phone call: "Hey? It's me. Can I cut in line? Yeah, don't tell them. Use a voice changer. Give them a surprise, okay? Okay, okay? Payment? No, we're here to have fun, not to make money. When? Next Monday? What's the date now? Three more days? Okay, I'll reserve a spot. Thanks, bye."
After a series of actions, Xiao seemed to understand what Wendy wanted to do. "Hehe, time to relax, need to rest well~" Wendy immediately lay down on the sofa and turned on the satellite TV to watch a program.

I still feel like I haven't captured the essence of it... My writing is just too bad (crying).
