Chapter 2582: Chapter 2580: The Wedding Day

This exhibition is merely for promotional purposes.

Jin Xiyao, who is in charge of the technology research and sales department, never intended to sell much.

Mechas are far too valuable.

Ordinary families simply can’t afford them; they still need to be sold to those major worldly powers.

When the marriage reception team returned, nearly a thousand flying ships carved trails of fire in the sky, flamboyantly traveling from Mount Li all the way to Liangshan Island.

The ordinary people below, the cultivators, and the worldly forces from various cities were dumbfounded.

Everyone was seeing these things for the first time, thinking they were some kind of strange magical treasures.

Each one was shaped like a silkworm cocoon, round in the middle with pointed ends, with flames shooting from their tails.

When the team reached Liangshan Island, they descended in the position of the stars of the Zhou Heavenly Combat Array, falling like stars, dazzling the onlookers with cries and shouts of excitement.

East Sea Dragon King couldn’t help but tear up sadly, saying, "What a pity, if only my Little Jiu were alive today. With her on the island, we would have a caretaker here."

West Sea Dragon King comforted him and then asked the Yunmeng Marsh Dragon King beside him, "Why haven’t I seen Ao Jie today?"

Yunmeng Marsh Dragon King sighed, "Don’t mention it. Earlier, he insisted his master send him to a place for secluded cultivation. He wouldn’t tell me where, only saying it would be ten years before he could emerge."

West Sea Dragon King replied, "Then he is not without fortune."

The other three Dragon Kings all nodded, "With the support of the Eastern Emperor, he won’t suffer any loss."

"I heard that three days ago, Liangshan Island had a big fallout with the Kunlun Sect, and it seems even Kunlun Mountain didn’t gain much advantage?"

"Indeed, I inquired about it. Jiang Ziya personally intervened, intending to shame Liangshan Island, but ended up at a great loss himself."

"Tsk tsk, this Liangshan Island is truly remarkable!"

The four Dragon Kings each sighed.

East Sea Dragon King suggested, "The rise of Liangshan Island is inevitable, and we can’t just sit still!"

West Sea Dragon King asked, "What does elder brother suggest?"

East Sea Dragon King said, "We each have unmarried Dragon Maidens at home, so why not form a marriage alliance with Liangshan Island? Even the Lady of Mount Li is interested in marrying into their family, what’s stopping us."

"Right, right, that makes sense!"

The three Dragon Kings nodded in agreement, their eyes gleaming brightly.

Yunmeng Marsh Dragon King also pondered whether to call his daughter back to find a husband on Liangshan Island.

Aboard the ship, the bride and Lady of Mount Li emerged simultaneously, wearing a splendid red Phoenix Coronet and Robe of Clouds made by the Heavenly Court’s Weaver Girl, their faces veiled with golden silk. Their dignified and elegant appearances left all the young attendees staring in awe and admiration.

He welcomed Zixuan at the door, then hurriedly brought forward He Tiantian, also dressed in an embroidered wedding gown from the Heavenly Court.

This wife was not veiled, her fair and glossy face showing, tinged with a shy red as she approached gracefully.

Accompanied by a group of young bridesmaids from the island, all second-generation disciples of the Yin Yang Sect.

This group of beauties gathered caused the young men present to howl like hungry wolves.

He Tiantian was already shy, and with their shouts, she became even more embarrassed, truly admiring Zixuan for being prepared with a veil.

On the open lawn, the elders of the two families sat on separate sides.

The Little Kirin held the hands of the two wives and bowed in the grand ceremony of three kneelings and nine kowtows to the elders of both families.

The Bald Dog acted as the host, deliberately teasing the two brides.

He asked when they planned to add new members to Liangshan Island, whether they’d have one or an entire class soon?

He even had the Little Kirin kiss both wives, asking which one’s cheeks were sweeter?

The crowd burst into laughter, joyfully boisterous at his antics.

The two young brides, already shy, were made even more embarrassed by the Bald Dog’s teasing.

They endured the wedding like they were subjected to harsh interrogation, finally being led to the bridal chamber.

The youth wouldn’t leave them alone, crowding together, following them amidst laughter and teasing.

Long Fei, Lin Yingying, and Wang Xiaoya welcomed the guests to their seats.

In the main hall’s seat of honor, they finally saw the legendary Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

He sat there in a yellow monk’s robe, looking like an old monk, not as wild and untamed as the legends said.

When he saw the Lady of Mount Li, he courteously gave this old acquaintance a grand salute.

On the journey to the West, they encountered the ordeal at the Cave of Silver Web.

It was the intervention of the Lady of Mount Li that turned their crisis into safety.

Lady of Mount Li raised a toast with a faint smile, "You, Monkey, seem to have mellowed a bit over the years."

Sunx Wukong scratched his head, chuckling, "You, Bodhisattva, have also become younger and more beautiful."

The Lady of Mount Li laughed heartily.

Recalling the affair at the Cave of Silver Web, Sun Wukong glanced at one of the Five Poison Protectors outside, the Spider Queen, and asked the Lady of Mount Li, "Bodhisattva, that lady outside, is she an old acquaintance from the Cave of Silver Web?"

"All is fated by fortune!"

The Lady of Mount Li smiled without a word.

Sunx Wukong didn’t ask further, turning back to drink with Long Fei.

The wedding feast continued into the night before slowly winding down.

After the guests left, the young people continued their merriment.

Though the sky was dark, Liangshan Island was brightly lit with streetlights everywhere, still as if it were daytime.

Someone, drunkenly, fixated on the streetlights, plucking one for inspection, wondering how it could outshine the Light Gathering Stones.

Little did they know that this was powered by a Spirit Stone Generator, and upon removing it, they got a harsh electric shock.

As the Lady of Mount Li departed, she held Zixuan’s hand with a long sigh, advising the Little Kirin, "Though Zixuan marries you, she is still one of our own from Mount Li. If you dare mistreat her, I, as her master, will not spare you."

"Rest assured, Master Aunt, Zixuan will be the one bullying me!"

The Little Kirin grinned and waited for the women to finish their chatter before seeing the Lady of Mount Li off.

Long Fei invited Sunx Wukong to have some sobering tea, sitting alone in the pavilion.

Sunx Wukong looked around with a feeling of sentiment, "This place is far livelier than our Flower Fruit Mountain."

Long Fei laughed heartily, "If you like it, Brother Monkey, stay with us. We can drink and discuss the Dao together, wouldn’t that be delightful?"

Sunx Wukong shook his head, "I increasingly feel like an old man, disliking noise and preferring peace. If unbothered, I’ll hide in the Water Curtain Cave and won’t want to come out for a moment."

The Mid-Autumn moon was full and bright, reflected on the lake surface in front of the pavilion, without a ripple.

Long Fei smiled at the moon, "Brother Monkey, have you been to the Broad Cold Palace?"

Sunx Wukong laughed, "No. My junior disciple went once and was banished to the mortal realm by the Jade Emperor. Though the moon is round, it feels like a cage. The Fairy of the Lunar Palace living there, might not be enjoying it."

"Brother Monkey has a fondness for fragrant beauty."

Long Fei leaned against a stone pillar, wistfully gazing at the moon, "The heavens and earth are like a cage, merely differing in size. Brother Monkey, you once broke free, lived gloriously and freely, why feel so dispirited now!"

"Breaking free, freedom?"

Sunx Wukong laughed, downing a jug of wine, while mildly intoxicated, he hugged Long Fei and bid farewell, "When you break free and find freedom, you’ll understand."

He vanished beneath the pavilion, leaping and somersaulting out of sight.

Long Fei, holding his wine cup, watched where he disappeared, saying, "Though you failed, I will continue. One day, I will find freedom!"
