638: Chapter 223: A Rebuke to the Queen Mother, Ping’an’s First Marriage [Vote for the Third Update!] 638: Chapter 223: A Rebuke to the Queen Mother, Ping’an’s First Marriage [Vote for the Third Update!] Li Ping’an waved his hand, and the power of the Heavenly Dao burst forth, causing both the Queen Mother and the illusion she created to vanish simultaneously.

It was only then that Li Ping’an saw figures everywhere, at the window, outside the door.

He felt a bit uneasy at heart, yet he still used the remnants of the Dao Charm left by the Queen Mother to say:

“When the senior understands how to properly fulfill the duties of a Heavenly Court Immortal, when you realize what it means to ‘serve all living beings’, come back to discuss matters of the Heavenly Court with me.

“The Heavenly Dao of today is no longer the Heavenly Dao of ancient times.

“Junior advises you, if the senior continues to linger in so-called schemes and strategies, you are not far from being eliminated by the Heavenly Dao.”

Having said this, Li Ping’an waved his hand again, and a thread of the Heavenly Dao’s power transformed into a profound Dao Charm that slowly spread out, wrapping the side hall once more.

Outside the side hall, the Immortals of the Wanyun Sect exchanged glances.

The words that the almost Heavenly Emperor said to the Queen Mother seemed…

to be intended for them as well…

Li Dazhi coughed and said, “Do not linger here anymore, return to your cultivation, and prepare for tomorrow’s events.”

The Immortals took their orders one after another, with some showing embarrassment while others bowed their heads in thought, leaving the main hall in small groups.

Li Dazhi couldn’t help but give a thumbs up in the direction of Li Ping’an.

Truly, his son.

Although the Immortals outside couldn’t see the Queen Mother’s illusion, they could see every move Li Ping’an made and feel the presence of the Queen Mother’s Dao Charm there.

Ping’an even scolded the Queen Mother, and did it convincingly, leaving her unable to retort.

Li Dazhi suddenly stopped worrying.

He planned to make a trip back to Castcloud Hall to pick out the biggest and best quality Precious Jade, and engrave it with the name ‘Queen Mother’.

Uh?

What’s the Queen Mother’s name?

Li Dazhi scratched his head a little.

Xiaoyue came hurrying over with an urgent look, having received news that Dong’an City was arranging Li Ping’an’s wedding and wanted to ask if there was anything she needed to handle.

…

The Sect Leader and many disciples who had perished in this battle had left this world peacefully.

Their coffins and bodies were swiftly consumed by true fire, transforming into abundant Spiritual Energy that was released between the mountains.

Cries of grief echoed from various peaks;

The disciples of each peak deeply bowed in the direction of the main peak, remaining bowed for a moment before standing up.

It’s the rule of Qi Cultivators: not bringing anything at birth, nor taking anything at death.

In life, they exhaust their minds and strength to enhance their mana and absorb Spiritual Energy, in death, they return the Spiritual Energy to the heavens and the earth.

To avoid complications, Li Ping’an moved his marriage to Ningning Mu forward by half a day, holding it in the middle of the night.

After so many tribulations, the two of them didn’t fuss over the details; completing the ceremony was good enough.

First, they conducted the rites of bowing to heaven and earth within the sect, then to Li Dazhi and Xiaoyue, and to Ningning’s master, Qing Xiu, before moving on to Dong’an City.

Dong’an City had already gathered a few close friends; Wen Rou, the Heavenly Immortal, was at home taking care of the elderly Tianli and did not come.

Li Ping’an planned to spend two months of honeymoon with his junior sister and then take Ningning to visit various places of the Eastern Alliance, thank Tianli personally, and then send Ningning to reap benefits at the Nuwa Palace.

Because Li Ping’an had performed a simple wedding ceremony in advance, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor’s ‘great gift’ would be delayed by half a day.

During the night banquet, Li Ping’an and Ningning Mu were dressed in wedding robes and red skirts, drinking lightly with friends.

—The Sect Leader’s grievances were fresh, and it was not appropriate to drink merrily.

Ongoing, there were Wang Shan, Ye Zisang, Xing He with Feng Tingzhu, and also Feng Zhansiang who had just rushed back from the front to continue being a trusted aide.

Li Ping’an’s three personal guards, who were also the three Great Generals he would heavily rely on in the future—Gu Qingcheng, Yu Yingshu, Chen Ting’er—represented the younger generation of Wanyun Sect, while the two stewards, Wei Yanzǐ and Gao Xu, represented the contemporary generation of the Wanyun Sect.

Wen Ling’er was still busy going back and forth.

She had been pondering for two days, thinking about her role during Li Ping’an and Ningning’s wedding night.

But when Li Ping’an and Ningning Mu drank the bridal cup, Wen Ling’er turned and ran with the White Tiger without daring to ask, “Do you need any help?”

Li Ping’an summoned the Cangyue Bead, activated all the formations of the residence, and then took out the bed he had been refining for a long time, which could block external probes, before he said with a smile and clasped hands:

“Junior sister, it’s time for bed.”

“Mm…

Mm.”

Ningning Mu lowered her gaze and pursed her lips, her eyes full of deep affection, recalling the words Li Ping’an had used to reprimand the Queen Mother.

“Brother…

if you don’t abandon me, I’ll never leave in this lifetime.”

Li Ping’an opened his arms, and Ningning nestled with lowered head.

The two embraced by the bedside, whispering and calling each other softly, and soon, their robes and skirts slipped away, lying down together tenderly on the soft bed.

This was truly:

In the warm tent, figures paired in the light, a soft quilt covering the spring branches.

A soft voice asked what’s to be done, the husband whispered lovingly in a shy manner.

Gentle waves ripple with emotion, their gazes in the willow boat blaze.

After removing the jade hairpin, wavy locks fall, entwining hearts in full attendance.

Fearing eavesdroppers through the wall, she lowly hums subtlety concealing her joy.

But how can one know in dreams where they’re carried, three souls adrift, complexion like solidified rouge.

Lotus arms around the neck, she urges her husband to regard the world’s affairs with gravity.

Alone in receiving favor, she rejoices at heart, but lets not indulgence mar her immortal grace.

Dreams of wandering the garden are hard to resist, though the day is well advanced, trials are not yet done.

Adorned and her hair styled into a clever wife’s bun, she prepares to serve tea, but is stopped by her father-in-law.

Wanyun Sect’s nurtured celestial maiden, henceforth takes the name Li Mu Clan’s wife.

…

Meanwhile.

In the Western Kunlun Secret Realm.
