CHAPTER 836: LOVE ABOVE ALL CHAPTER 195

Love Above All Chapter 195

The Coronation Ceremony.

Those with some reputation in the Heavenly Palace have all arrived.

Including the Heavenly Emperor.

The great hall of the Goddess Palace is lined with seats.

A row of palace maids stand neatly, holding wine jugs in their hands.

With a loud shout, "The Goddess arrives!"

Everyone’s eyes turn toward the door.

They see a beautiful woman bathed in rainbow sunlight, stepping gracefully onto lotus petals one step at a time.

Her long hair cascades like a waterfall, her skin is like ice and jade, her white dress as pristine as snow, and her exquisite makeup gives her a solemn and dignified appearance.

Her expressionless face casts a cold frost over the entire Goddess Palace with her arrival.

She is so pure and aloof, it deters any thought of desecration from afar.

For a moment, everyone in the hall holds their breath at the sight of the doorway.

Afraid to make a sound, disrupting the Goddess’s pace, disturbing her peace.

At this moment, a thought echoes in everyone’s mind.

Lan Xi’s demeanor has changed.

Once she was proud, stubborn, and strong-willed.

Now, she is still proud, stubborn, and strong-willed, but the impression she gives is that.

She has finally grown up, matured.

Through her steps, one can see the calm and steadiness in her bones, a quality she never possessed in ten thousand years.

Ya sits next to the Heavenly Emperor.

In truth, the Heavenly Emperor was initially very angry and did not intend to see Lan Xi.

However, she was succeeding as the master of the Goddess Palace.

As a dominant figure in the Immortal Realm, they are bound to meet in the future.

So, in the end, the Heavenly Emperor brought him along.

As he looks at Lan Xi, he feels that the heavens enjoy playing tricks on people.

It’s as if they let him fall for Lan Xi, yet Lan Xi falls for the forbidden Quan Shaoqing.

They are born to wealth, but none find peace.

Yet their feelings are so persistent.

He doesn’t want to let go, nor can he.

And Lan Xi is the same.

As a result, what was meant to be a destined marriage turned out to be fate without fortune.

Twice he tried to marry her, both attempts unsuccessful.

As everyone stands transfixed.

Lan Xi has already reached the highest seat of the Goddess Palace.

The Heavenly Emperor sits in the most honorable position on her left, and on her right is Bu Qiao, who hasn’t been seen in ten thousand years.

The elders of the Imperial Power Clan are also present.

Including Lan Xi’s two disciples, Rong Feng and Nie Shu.

It is a millennium, enough to change many things.

"Greetings, Goddess!"

Just as Lan Xi sits down.

Two rows of palace attendants dressed in blue enter from the center of the hall.

They collectively kneel to pay homage to their new master.

"Rise," Lan Xi says indifferently.

Zi Yun personally brings the Goddess’s jewel necklace to adorn Lan Xi.

Under the gaze of all, Lan Xi is enveloped in a blue glow.

Soon, the jewel emits a luminous light akin to rippling water, enfolding her in its warmth.

Gu Xiaoxi gently lowers her head to gaze at the jewel necklace around her neck, feeling as though her entire body is embraced by a warm spring breeze the moment it’s worn, so comfortable.

She thought that this would mark the end.

But just then, the jewel suddenly draws Spiritual Energy from the heavens, which streams like a waterfall and swiftly converges onto her.

In an instant, the entire Goddess Palace is bathed in pure Spiritual Energy.

Allowing everyone present to experience a cleansing of the soul.

Those bathed in Spiritual Energy express amazement, with some even finding it unbelievable.

In this brief moment, the gains they achieved would require at least ten thousand years of cultivation to acquire.

Meanwhile, Lan Xi herself absorbs even more Immortal Spirit Qi.

Her strength returns to its peak state from before her reincarnation.

At this moment, everyone gazes at Lan Xi with envy in their eyes.

Undoubtedly, she is the Goddess, a favored power by the heavens that commands admiration.

Nonetheless, Lan Xi’s sudden recovery of strength seems unrelated to her inheritance as the Goddess.

Inadvertently, everyone benefits from Lan Xi’s fortune.

After the succession ceremony.

Lan Xi hosts a feast in the name of the Goddess, inviting everyone present.

The Goddess Palace may not have coiled peaches, but it does have a Spiritual Spring, the White Jade Well, with the purest rootless water from both heaven and earth.

Generally reserved only for esteemed guests at the Goddess Palace.

In light of such generosity, it’s as if attending Lan Xi’s inauguration was worth it.

At the feast.

The Heavenly Emperor now stands on equal footing with Lan Xi.

He is exceedingly courteous to her.

The others need not even be mentioned; they naturally shower her with flattery.

The banquet concludes.

Lan Xi has Zi Yun see the guests off.

In the rear hall.

Rong Feng and Nie Shu follow behind Lan Xi, respectfully.

"Master, we’ve finally awaited your return," Rong Feng remarks with slight excitement. He initially came to the Goddess Palace a while ago.

But Master remained unseen for days; instead, waiting for the coronation ceremony.

"Yes, Master, your disciple missed you dearly. Without you, I wouldn’t dare to marry," Nie Shu sincerely states.

Back when she joined the sect, Lan Xi mandated her marriage be decided by Master.

Without Master, even if she found a man she fancied, she wouldn’t dare marry.

"How have you both been these years without me?" Lan Xi sits in the chief seat.

Rong Feng immediately prepares tea, smiling as he responds, "Without you, naturally we worried, but now that you’re back, we’re doing much better."

Nie Shu sincerely adds, "Master, it’s good you’re back. Without you, as siblings, we neither ate nor slept well, always worrying for you."

"Sweet talkers!" Lan Xi, drinking tea, looks at Nie Shu with a gentle smile, "Do you blame me for disrupting your marriage back then?"

Nie Shu naturally understands Lan Xi’s reference and quickly kneels to explain, "I heard from Bu Qiao about Master’s past with the Human Sovereign. If I’d known earlier about your deep feelings, I would never have agreed to that marriage. Moreover, despite that proposal, I had no feelings for him."

Nie Shu’s words are honest.

Lan Xi holds her teacup, regarding the young woman before her, noting how much she has matured over ten thousand years.

"Rise! No need to kneel so much; even if you don’t tire, it tires me to watch."

"Master!" Nie Shu, bashful, stands, hesitating to speak.

Lan Xi knows she likely wants to talk about her marriage.

"Speak your mind, Master hasn’t been able to guide your cultivation these years, which was negligent."

"But as my disciples, you are my excellent pupils for life. Any difficulties, Master will help as best as I can."

Reassured, Nie Shu finally speaks, "Master, these years with Zhi Yi..."

Nervous, Nie Shu hesitates as Lan Xi keeps watching her, so she steels herself, "He treats me well, and I like him too. Would Master be willing to decide for me?"

At her confession, Lan Xi raises her brows, surprised that Nie Shu shares a special connection with Zhi Yi.
