Chapter 491: Chen Hongde And Su Xiulan’s Wedding

"Of course it’s real!"

Situ Lingxi told them about her relationship with Tang Xiao in greater detail than before. She removed the ring from her finger, allowing both Zhu Xuan’er and Xuanyuan Yueyao to sense her aura.

Compared to Xuanyuan Yueyao, Zhu Xuan’er was most shocked by the change in Situ Lingxi’s aura. It had become more mature, like that of a typical married woman.

Noticing this change in her aura, the two women finally realized that Situ Lingxi had given her virginity to Tang Xiao, so they were no longer surprised by her eagerness to marry him.

Since Tang Xiao already had several wives, Xuanyuan Yueyao was not surprised that Situ Lingxi gave her virginity to him so quickly. After all, there was a possibility that the number of his wives would increase further in the future, so she wanted to secure her position first.

Zhu Xuan’er couldn’t help shaking her head. "Does your father know about your relationship with him? I heard he tried to set you up with several men, including my fiancé."

"That fool doesn’t know about our relationship yet, and he also doesn’t know that we’re getting married soon."

Zhu Xuan’er and Xuanyuan Yueyao weren’t surprised by Situ Lingxi’s decision not to tell her father about her relationship with Tang Xiao.

It was no secret that Situ Zengyan valued his son more than his two daughters, compounded by his second wife’s toxic attitude and greed.

They knew that Pan Yuezhi was a greedy and ambitious woman, and she wouldn’t hesitate to use any means to replace Murong Xianyin as Situ Zhengyan’s main wife.

Unfortunately, her in-laws had long been aware of Pan Yuezhi’s toxic, greedy nature. That’s why they preferred to hand over the important affairs of the Situ Clan to Murong Xianyin.

As for Situ Lingxi, Situ Chengyan and Dugu Xinyue favored her over Situ Qingze because his character was just as bad as his mother’s. Furthermore, his mindset was somewhat twisted, and he harbored excessive ambition.

Xuanyuan Yueyao immediately changed the subject by asking Tang Xiao a question. "Are you sure you want to enter the Misty Ridge?"

"Yes." Tang Xiao nodded seriously. "I may not be an alchemist, but I need alchemy ingredients. Aside from herbs, I also want to look for other materials, and the Misty Ridge is the perfect place to find them."

"You’re right about that." Xuanyuan Yueyao nodded in agreement. "Since you want to go there, I’ll accompany you. Besides, Zhu Xuan’er and Xuanyuan Wenxuan are also going there, so we’ll go as a group."

Zhu Xuan’er immediately added. "Actually, my fiancé will go there with his master and sect members, but they will understand if they know that Yueyao asked him to join her. However, our number is too small if we go there with only five of us, so you have to find some other people to join us."

"Duanmu Jingjing, Tantai Lingyan, and Huo Yan will be joining us."

Zhu Xuan’er raised an eyebrow. "I know Duanmu Jingjing is an elder of the Nine Profound Sect, but who are the other two women?"

"Tantai Lingyan is my martial arts master, and she is also an elder in the Nine Profound Sect. As for Huo Yan, she is a member of the Huo Clan in the Dongfang Kingdom, and she is also Duanmu Jingjing’s disciple." Tang Xiao turned to Situ Lingxi. "I also plan to invite Taixu Wuxian and Huo Mianmian to join us, but I don’t know if your aunt will allow your cousin to go there or not."

Situ Lingxi smiled gently. "Actually, my cousin will also go to that place, and he will go there with people from the Taixu Clan. Since you want him to join us, I will talk to my aunt later, and I’m sure she won’t refuse. "What about Chen Hongde?"

"Chen Hongde chose not to go there this time, and he wants to enjoy his wedding with Su Xiulan first." Situ Lingxi nodded in understanding, and she couldn’t wait to marry Tang Xiao. "At first, I didn’t plan to bring Tang Yin and the others there, but I changed my mind."

"Who are Tang Yin and the other women?"

"My husband’s wives."

Zhu Xuan’er stared at Tang Xiao in disbelief.

"He already has five wives, and I will soon be his sixth."

Zhu Xuan’er couldn’t believe Situ Lingxi chose Tang Xiao, who already had five wives, as her future husband. "Why are you willing to marry him if he’s no different from Sun Weitian?"

"Who said he’s no different from Sun Weitian?" Situ Lingxi’s voice rose. "For your information, four of his five wives have never had husbands, and only one of them has ever been married. Moreover, he has never used the services of prostitutes, so you can’t equate him with that dead bastard."

Zhu Xuan’er had no words to refute Situ Lingxi, and she turned to Xuanyuan Yueyao, giving her a strange look. Compared to them, her status was far higher, and she could have chosen a much better man, but she chose Tang Xiao as her future husband.

Xuanyuan Yueyao smiled calmly. "I can’t explain the details to you, but there is no man more suitable to be my husband than Tang Xiao."

"I don’t understand the way you two think." Zhu Xuan’er said, shaking her head. "If that man already has a wife, I will never agree to marry him, no matter how talented he is."

"Hahaha," Xuanyuan Yueyao responded with a soft laugh. "Everyone has their own choices, and I’ve already made mine. In fact, my uncle and my parents already agree with my choice, but I won’t go any further with Tang Xiao before our relationship deepens."

Zhu Xuan’er exhaled softly. "I think your choice is quite strange, but I won’t interfere in your personal affairs, and I hope you won’t regret it in the future."

"I won’t regret it." Xuanyuan Yueyao looked at Tang Xiao. "Are you going to make me regret my decision?"

Tang Xiao neither nodded nor shook his head. "You will know the answer in the future."

After a long talk, Zhu Xuan’er left the residence and went to meet Xuanyuan Wenxuan at the Lingdan Pavilion, telling him about Tang Xiao’s plan to go to Misty Ridge.

Meanwhile, Situ Lingxi went to the Taixu Royal Palace to discuss Tang Xiao’s plans with Situ Lingshan.

Tang Xiao did not leave the residence, and he practiced swordsmanship under Xuanyuan Yueyao’s guidance.

After discussing the matter with Situ Lingshan, Situ Lingxi returned to the Situ Clan’s second residence and informed Tang Xiao of her aunt’s decision.

Situ Lingshan agreed to allow Taixu Wuxian and Huo Mianmian to join Tang Xiao’s group, and she didn’t ask them to join the Taixu Clan’s group.

However, Situ Lingshan insisted on sending two people from the Taixu and Situ Clans to accompany them, and they couldn’t refuse.

Besides Situ Lingshan, Hong Ruoyan also agreed to let her daughter, Situ Shuying, join Tang Xiao and Situ Lingxi’s group.

Not long after, Zhu Xuan’er contacted Xuanyuan Yueyao, informing her that she and Xuanyuan Wenxuan would join Tang Xiao’s group.

Four days flew by.

Over the past four days, Tang Xiao didn’t go anywhere; he spent his time with all his wives.

From morning to evening, Tang Xiao practiced swordsmanship with Xuanyuan Yueyao.

At night, Tang Xiao dual-cultivated with Tang Yin and the others. Naturally, he never forgot his other women living in the Nine Profound Sect and in the Ark, and he dual-cultivated with them.

.

On the morning of the fifth day, Tang Xiao led Xuanyuan Yueyao, Tang Yin, and the others to the Chen Clan to attend Chen Hongde and Su Xiulan’s wedding.

Following Chen Hongde’s instructions, members of the Chen Clan set up a special table for Tang Xiao and his wives, and he asked someone to accompany them.

Taixu Wudie came with Situ Lingshan and Taixu Wuxian, but Huo Mianmian didn’t join them and stayed at the Taixu Royal Palace.

After all, people from the Song and Shangguan were still looking for Huo Mianmian, so she didn’t want to appear in public.

Situ Lingxi didn’t join Tang Xiao and the others; instead, she joined her mother and grandparents.

After all, the relationship between Tang Xiao and Situ Lingxi hadn’t been made public yet, and members of the Sun Clan were also attending Chen Hongde and Su Xiulan’s wedding.

Sun Yuheng of the Sun Clan arrived at the Chen Clan, leading his family, including Ning Zhiya.

Ning Zhiya couldn’t recognize Tang Xiao because he was in disguise when they met in the forest. However, she remembered Tang Yin and Mu Qingge’s faces because he showed her their pictures when he accompanied her to search for Sun Weitian.

’Is he Feng Xiao?’ Ning Zhiya shook her head and averted her gaze from Tang Xiao. ’Even if he is Feng Xiao, we have no relationship whatsoever. Even if he lied to me back then, he didn’t do anything bad to me.’

People from the Luo Clan, Dugu Clan, Ming Clan, Shao Clan, and Huo Clan, as well as all the clans from the Taixu Kingdom, also attended the wedding.

Since they knew Tang Xiao, people from the Ming, Shao, and Huo clans greeted him and his wives, raising many questions in the minds of the other guests.

Dugu Jiuyou and the people from the Dugu Clan also knew Tang Xiao, but they had no direct connection with him.

In addition to members of all the clans, leaders and members of the Lingdan Pavilion, the Myriad Sword Sect, and Heavenly Star Palace were also present at the wedding.

Xuanyuan Wenxuan came with Zhu Xuan’er, but he didn’t sit with the Lingdan Pavilion members; instead, he brought his fiancée to sit with Tang Xiao and his wives.
