Chapter 830 - 830 The Grand Wedding
830 The Grand Wedding
The God Bestow Ceremony was no different from the previous years’. What touched Qian Wanguan was that he used to stand below and was not qualified to get up the stage even last year. Today, he—as a member of the Situ Clan—was eligible to stand on the high podium, looking down at the people in the city. Moreover, he was going to marry the beauty—Situ Yinian—tomorrow and enjoy the highlight of his life.
Unfortunately, after tomorrow, everything would be gone. All his efforts over these years would be gone. He had to bring Situ Yinian with him on his run and might lose his life anytime. Suddenly, he couldn’t help asking himself; was all of it worthwhile?
The answer was clear!
A faint smile was revealed at his lips. He stared at Situ Yinian cuddling up to him lovingly. He was overwhelmed with a deep conviction: as long as he could survive this time, he had the confidence to start all over. He would spend ten—dozens of years building another merchant association, a merchant empire that would shake the entire Stellarsky Domain to prove that Situ Yinian made the right choice.
Situ Yinian noticed Qian Wanguan’s strange behaviors. She asked softly, “Wanguan, are you okay?”
“I’m fine!”
Qian Wanguan lost a lot of weight and had a special charisma now. He held Situ Yinian in his arms and said with a smile, “I just feel very happy all of a sudden. Yinian, with you and Boss by my side, what else can I ask for?”
Situ Yinian let out a sweet smile. She held Qian Wanguan’s belly hard. Her smile was even more brilliant than flowers, making young masters envious.
The ceremony was over very quickly. Following that, it was the most crucial auction. To Qian Wanguan’s disappointment, Jiang Yi was not out of his seclusion even when the auction was over; and they returned to the Jiang Castle.
Tomorrow was Qian Wanguan’s wedding day and the day that they would execute the plan. How could they do it without Jiang Yi? Qian Wanguan waited till midnight. Then, he had no choice but to leave the courtyard and surround one hand with his essence force. He was about to attack the restrictions of the Thearch Palace.
Buzz!
Just at this moment, the Thearch Palace shone, four figures appeared. Qian Wanguan showed a surprised look. He cried out, “Boss, Big Brother Wushuang, Princess Yun Fei, Xiaonu, you finally came out.”
“Hahaha!”
Jiang Yi laughed and hugged Qian Wanguan. “My best brother is going to marry someone; how can I miss that?”
Zhan Wushuang patted Qian Wanguan on his shoulders and said, “Wanguan, if Uncle knows that you make such great accomplishment in the Gods Bestow Tribe and can marry the lady of the Situ Clan, he will be so happy that he will keep himself drunk for three days and three nights. Wanguan, congratulations!”
When Zhan Wushuang finished his words, both Qian Wanguan and his eyes darkened. Jiang Yi was quiet, too. Their minds drifted back to the Stellarsky Continent which was trillions of kilometers away.
Even though Qian Gui and Zhan Yiming were confident about surviving and that Jiang Yunhai’s hiding location was very obscure, the Nine Thearch Clans—by right—shouldn’t look for their troubles. Who knew what the exact situation of the Stellarsky Continent was? Who could guarantee that Qian Gui, Zhan Yiming, and Jiang Yunhai were still alive?
“Wushuang, why did you say such things on such a good day?” Yun Fei pushed Zhan Wushuang slightly and was a bit upset. “Today is Wanguan’s big day. We should feel happy instead.”
“Hahaha, today is the day of joy. We should drop those!”
Jiang Yi’s eyes glistened with brilliant light. He said heroically, “As long as we work hard, we will eventually be able to return to the East Imperial Continent and the Stellarsky Continent, open and upright. Then, we will find them and let them enjoy a good life.”
“En!”
Qian Wanguan and Zhan Wushuang nodded heavily and were moved by Jiang Yi’s spirit. Qian Wanguan and Jiang Yi looked at each other. They didn’t even need voice transmission to understand each other’s thoughts by just a few looks. Qian Wanguan’s face was red from excitement. From Jiang Yi’s look… it seemed that he obtained a big breakthrough?
“Let’s have a drink!”
Jiang Yi waved his big hands. It was still dark, and the wedding ceremony only took place several hours later. Everything was arranged by the Situ Clan. They went to the central hall, took out stiff drinks, and began drinking.
When the day broke, all kinds of ceremonies started.
Qian Wanguan was dragged for a bath. Then, he offered sacrifices to the ancestors of the Situ Clan, which was followed by many more trivial and complicated rituals. In the end, he went to the God Bestow City Plaza to have the wedding ceremony.
In the presence of all the people in the city and the statue of Great Emperor Nangong, the two got married. At noon, the Situ Clan’s feast started. Guests included the Clan Heads and Elders of different clans. There were so many gifts which also piled up into a mountain.
Lei Tingwei, Nangong Yunyi, and Lu Li didn’t show up; but they sent their clans’ Elders and young masters. In estimation, over a dozen Pseudo-divine artifacts were gifted to them, but Qian Wanguan didn’t take any of them. He gave everything to the Situ Clan.
Jiang Yi and Zhan Wushuang attended the ceremony and banquet as Qian Wanguan’s family. Jiang Yi gave a Heaven Painting as a present. Instead of signing off as Yi Piaopiao, he wrote his real name. It was a picture of Qian Wanguan and Situ Yinian, which was very lifelike. A very special dao pattern was hidden inside the painting. When Situ Ao saw the picture, he trembled; and his eager looks could also melt the ice.
After that, Jiang Yi also gave Situ Ao one thousand Heaven Paintings and a reel as gifts from Qian Wanguan’s family. When Situ Ao casually gave a painting a sweep, he shook again. When he opened the reel and saw the Divine Perception sorcery art, his hand became even shakier.
Unfortunately, only Situ Ao saw the paintings and reel. Before the divine senses of the crowd reached him, Situ Ao quickly put away the paintings and the reel. He grabbed Jiang Yi’s hands and didn’t let him go for a long time.
Zhan Wushuang, Feng Luan, and the others all sent presents which were, of course, less valuable. Besides, all the presents were prepared by Feng Luan. Even though Qian Wanguan was family and that they didn’t have to observe the formalities, they must show respect to Situ Yinian.
The night was approaching slowly!
Jiang Yi and his group were all ready to set off for the Sky Ascension Peak on the north of the city, where tonight’s highlight was. After this night, Jiang Yi and his group would officially leave the Gods Bestow Tribe. Qian Wanguan had made all the arrangements. He and Feng Luan repeatedly deduced what might happen tonight. Tonight’s plan would go perfectly, barring any accident.
Swish! Swish!
Many chariots also rose to the sky at night, flying straight to the north. After making sure that Lei Qiyan went to the Sky Ascension Peak with Big Sister Bell on a chariot, Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan took a deep breath at the same time.
“Follow the plan! After tonight, you can yield, seek refuge in the Situ Clan, or find us. If you can find us safely, I will give back your freedom. I have made proper arrangements for your family; they will enjoy a carefree life for generations.”
Qian Wanguan waved his hand, and an old man in a gray robe made a deep bow before disappearing in the darkness. Qian Wanguan smiled and said, “Boss, shall we go to the Sky Ascension Peak?”
“Alright!”
Jiang Yi took out the Thearch Palace and took Feng Luan, Zhan Wushuang, and the others in, except for Jiang Xiaonu. Qian Wanguan asked in surprise, “Boss, is Xiaonu going with us? Will it be too dangerous?”
“Haha, I have my plans!”
Jiang Yi let out a mysterious smile and walked out of the inner sanctum with Qian Wanguan and Jiang Xiaonu. They, together with Situ Yinian and Huangfu Taotian who were waiting outside, got on two chariots and flew directly to the Sky Ascension Peak with a group of Situ Clan’s Heaven Monarch guards.
Huangfu Taotian, Jiang Yi, and Jiang Xiaonu were on the same chariot. After the chariot rose to the sky and that the shield was turned on, Huangfu Taotian suddenly looked at Jiang Yi and said, “Jiang Yi, do you have something hiding from him? Why do I feel a little uneasy?”
“Haha, Big Brother Huangfu, you are overthinking!”
Jiang Yi looked away at the stars over the sky outside the chariot and smiled faintly, “The Sky Ascension Peak should be very lively right now. When we get there, it will probably be livelier. Big Brother Huangfu, don’t think too much tonight. Relax and enjoy the evening. Today is a day that is worth remembering.”
