CHAPTER 384: CHAPTER 72 THE JOYOUS OCCASION OF THE THREE PURE ONES (PART 1)
Xuan Dou was taken aback and said, "Not yet, but they should be on their way! Don’t worry, Big Brother will definitely rush over!"
"Oh!" Yu Ding responded unenthusiastically, looking somewhat dejected.
"There, there!" Guang Chengzi walked up with a smile, patted Yu Ding on the shoulder, and said, "Big Brother said he would give you a surprise, so just relax!"
"Really?" Yu Ding asked excitedly.
"Really!" Guang Chengzi nodded slightly.
"Are we ready? Master, Laozi, and Uncle Tongtian have already arrived at the Three Pure Ones Hall!" Chi Jingzi, who had run out earlier to watch for developments, came bustling back in a hurry.
"Quickly now! We must not keep Master waiting!" Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became busy flurrying about.
At this moment, East Kunlun Mountain was especially lively.
Although the Three Pure Ones did not overly publicize the wedding of Yu Ding and Jin Ling, which power on the Shen Zhou land today is not cunning and sly?
Therefore, many people still attended the grand wedding of the disciples from the Chan and Jie Sects. Some even camped at the base of East Kunlun Mountain because the mountain itself could not accommodate everyone, quietly waiting for the wedding to begin.
The attending guests might not know Yu Ding or Jin Ling, but that didn’t matter—what mattered was that they knew of the Three Pure Ones.
Who are the Three Pure Ones?
If anyone on the Huaxia Land were to ask such a foolish question, they would surely be drowned in the spit of countless beings, because the reputation of the Three Pure Ones was simply too great. The authentic lineage from Pangu, disciples of the Tao Ancestor, the three Primordial Saints under the Heavenly Dao!
On the Shen Zhou land, where one is an ant unless they achieve sainthood, who wouldn’t want to establish ties with the Three Pure Ones, who wouldn’t want to cling to this great tree?
So today, on the Huaxia Divine Land, there was a greater commotion than even the weddings of Di Jun or Hao Tian.
"The hour has come, Disciple Yu Ding!" Xuan Dou, still in his green Daoist robe, appeared at the entrance of the main hall, a mysterious smile on his face.
"Roar!"
A resounding dragon roar came from the deep sky, and an extravagantly decorated Dragon Phoenix Chariot appeared at the entrance of the side hall.
On each side of the chariot were a dragon and a phoenix, symbolizing the auspiciousness of dragon and phoenix brought together. The chariot’s cover was made of Nine Heavens Star Silk, exquisite and luxurious, studded with countless gems. The chariot itself, thoroughly polished, was carved from Innate Nan Wood, and on each side hung two rows of Yin Yang banners, symbolizing the harmony of Yin and Yang. On the shaft of the chariot, a vivid Nine Dragons Playing with Pearl was carved, lifelike in every detail.
"This, what is this?" The disciples of the two sects clustered around Yu Ding were astounded.
"Damn, this is too extravagant! Just the spare materials to make this Dragon Phoenix Chariot could refine several Acquired Spirit Treasures!" The Refining Madman, Duo Bao, his eyes glittering with greed, stared at the Dragon Phoenix Chariot. It looked like he could pounce on it to take a bite at any moment.
"That’s all the ambition you have!" Yun Zhongzi, another disciple from the Chan Sect skilled in artifact refining, sneered at Duo Bao and continued, "Haven’t you noticed? The covering cloud above, the body of the chariot, the shaft of the chariot, they’ve all been inscribed with countless Tao Runes! I guarantee, if you rashly surge forward, even if you don’t die, you would be grievously injured!"
"Huh?" Duo Bao narrowed his eyes, once again looking towards the Dragon Phoenix Chariot.
After a moment, he sharply inhaled several breaths of cold air, and exclaimed, "Hiss! That’s the Great Five Elements Yin Yang Formation, that’s the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Formation, that’s the Nine Radiant Defense Array... This, this thing is simply comparable to a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure!"
"This is the first gift from our eldest Senior Brother, who wishes you and Jin Ling a blissful marriage and an early blessing of children!" Xuan Dou smiled lightly and infused the magic spell to control the Phoenix Chariot into Yu Ding’s brow.
"Only our eldest Senior Brother can be so generous."
"Damn, this makes me want to find a Daoist couple too!"
"How about I talk to the Senior Sisters from Wudang for you?"
"Forget it, let’s not!"
The disciples from both the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect discussed animatedly, deeply shocked by Li Qingming’s grand gesture, while also feeling a sense of awe. The very first gift was already a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure; could the subsequent gifts possibly be inferior? Everyone began to look forward with hidden expectations.
"Junior Brother, go and fetch the bride already!" Guang Chengzi nudged Yu Ding, who had just digested the magic spell, and pointed to the Phoenix Chariot in front, saying, "Use this to pick up Junior Sister Jin Ling!"
Yu Ding’s face flushed red as he led his fellow disciples onto the Phoenix Chariot, heading straight towards the great halls to the left.
From afar, even before reaching the doors of the great hall, the group of grown men saw their fellow Senior Sisters, surrounding Jin Ling—also dressed in a bright red bridal robe—waiting quietly in front of the hall.
The innocent and beautiful Ci Hang couldn’t resist her playful nature, pinched Jin Ling’s bottom lightly, and teased, "Senior Sister Jin Ling, your darling is here to pick you up!"
"You little minx! I’ll deal with you later!" Unable to react outwardly, Jin Ling coyly rolled her eyes at Ci Hang, her threatening look speaking volumes.
Just then, Yu Ding arrived before everyone in the Phoenix Chariot.
"My heavens, such a beautiful carriage, such beautiful gems..."
Men and women perceive things differently, with men often focusing on real value, while women cannot resist shiny objects. At the moment, they had completely fallen for the luster of the gems on the canopy.
However, for Yu Ding and the other gentlemen, they were selectively ignored.
Feeling slightly awkward, Guang Chengzi stepped forward and said, "Ladies, the auspicious hour has arrived. The Master, as well as the Masters and Master Uncles are waiting in the Three Pure Ones Hall. We must not miss the good timing!"
The women reluctantly snapped back to reality from their admiration of the carriage and exchanged glances, their faces flushed with redness.
The Wudang Saintess took Jin Ling by the hand and came up to Yu Ding, saying, "Junior Brother Yu Ding, I entrust Junior Sister Jin Ling to you. You must not bully her in the future."
Yu Ding took Jin Ling’s hand and, without looking at the others, said tenderly to her, "Jin Ling will be my Daoist couple from now on. I would cherish her too much to ever bully her."
Jin Ling, deeply moved, held onto Yu Ding’s hand with a flushed face and spoke affectionately, "Brother Yu Ding!"
"Yo yo yo, stop with the mushiness and proceed to the Three Pure Ones Hall for the ceremony!" An inconsiderate Guang Chengzi stepped forward and rudely pulled the two apart, urging everyone to hurry to the Three Pure Ones Hall.
It was only then Yu Ding and Jin Ling remembered they were outside the hall and there were so many people around. Blushing profusely as they thought of their recent interaction.
As the eldest among them, Xuan Dou now stepped forward and made the decision, "Alright, the bride has been picked up, let’s hurry to the Three Pure Ones Hall!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, and once Yu Ding and Jin Ling were properly seated, they headed straight for the Three Pure Ones Hall. (To be continued.
