Dark Rigid's Holy Mother was overseeing the holy city, and at this moment, the people of Dark Rigid were continuously delivering news about the wedding procession to her. The Holy Mother wore a smile on her face.
"They've reached the first challenge, haven't they? The Grand Sky Sect isn't skilled with Gu insects, so they definitely can't break through this Gu insect formation. But I've prepared the Wu Hua Brew formation for them..."
As the Holy Mother was calculating how many disciples of the Grand Sky Sect would be knocked out by the Wu Hua Brew, someone outside brought in news.
"Holy Mother... the Grand Sky Sect has already broken through the first joyous challenge!"
"Oh? How many of them went in? We prepared so much Wu Hua Brew, let's see how many of them get drunk." The Holy Mother smiled.
"They... didn't drink..."
"Didn't drink?" The Holy Mother was stunned. What do you mean they didn't drink?
How did they break the first challenge without drinking?
Soon, from her subordinates, the Holy Mother learned how the Grand Sky Sect passed the first challenge.
Indeed, the Grand Sky Sect didn't have the ability to control Gu insects, but they had the Dark Moon Clan.The news of the Dark Moon Clan had spread across the world in recent days.
When the news of the Dark Moon Clan possessing immortal bodies broke out, everyone was shocked.
Is the Grand Sky Sect even playing fair anymore?
Are they trying to defy the heavens?
Just yesterday, the Holy Mother was talking about the Dark Moon Clan, and today they've arrived?
The way they broke through the first challenge was just too damn simple and crude, wasn't it?
They just threw the Dark Moon Clan into the Gu insect formation, letting them feed the insects with their bodies. Is the immortal body really that reckless?
I prepared Wu Hua Brew for you, with so many rare treasures in it. Wouldn't it be better to drink your way through and collect treasures along the way?
Isn't breaking the formation in such a simple and crude way a bit too violent?
But soon, the Holy Mother understood. This was Chu Xinghe's intention. This wedding was being watched by the entire world.
If Chu Xinghe really had no way to deal with the Gu insect formation and had to drink Wu Hua Brew to pass, even though today was a joyous occasion, wouldn't some people say that the Grand Sky Sect couldn't even break a Gu insect formation and had to drink to pass?
Does the Grand Sky Sect, the number one sect in the world, not care about its reputation? The Holy Mother felt that she had been unprepared.
Xinghe, this child, truly always puts the sect's interests first. He would never give anyone the chance to criticize the Grand Sky Sect.
And just as the Holy Mother was sighing over how Xinghe always prioritized the sect's interests, the wedding procession had already reached the second challenge in the holy city.
Again, there were two paths: one was the path of Wu Hua Brew, and the other was filled with various Dark Rigid poisons.
Before Zhu Bo could even introduce it, Chu Xinghe waved his hand: "Sister Nangong, where are you!"
"Here!"
"Sister Nangong, quickly break the formation!"
"Understood!"
Nangong Yan stepped out from the procession. Facing the various Dark Rigid poisons, she was not the least bit flustered. She consumed each poison one by one, her body immune to all toxins.
After Nangong Yan swallowed all the poisons, they had no effect on her.
This scene left countless people of Dark Rigid with their scalps tingling. Is this the legendary number one sect in the world?
How terrifying is this body immune to all poisons? Even we, Dark Rigid, don't have it... The Grand Sky Sect actually has such a disciple. Truly, God Bless Grand Sky Sect!
But just as everyone was marveling at the terrifying nature of the poison-immune body, Nangong Yan suddenly turned green and collapsed.
This scene immediately threw the place into chaos.
"Did Sister Nangong get poisoned?"
"Impossible!"
Soon, everyone understood what had happened to Nangong Yan... it wasn't poisoning!
It was Jiu Li's cooking!
What a cunning Holy Mother of Dark Rigid... to place Jiu Li's dishes at the end. Nangong Yan swallowed all the poisons without any reaction, but ultimately fell in front of Jiu Li's dishes...
Just as the people of Dark Rigid were lamenting that even the poison-immune body had fallen, and that the Grand Sky Sect would have to drink Wu Hua Brew to take their treasures, a fierce warrior stepped out from behind Chu Xinghe... Ouyang Ming!
Ouyang Brave Troops waved his hand, and his sister Ouyang Ling led countless disciples of the Ouyang Family to charge forward, sweeping away Jiu Li's dishes in an instant.
The people of Dark Rigid were shocked. Is this the legendary number one sect in the world?
We thought the poison-immune body was already invincible, but it still couldn't withstand our Saintess's dishes. Yet your Grand Sky Sect has someone even stronger?
You can even withstand the Saintess's dishes? Does your Grand Sky Sect have no humanity?
The Ouyang Family broke through the poison formation, and the wedding procession continued forward.
Hearing the report that even Jiu Li's dishes couldn't stop the Grand Sky Sect, the Holy Mother of Dark Rigid sighed at the terrifying nature of the Grand Sky Sect's wedding procession.
However, the Holy Mother did not bow her head, for the third challenge was the hardest. Even the Grand Sky Sect couldn't pass without drinking their Wu Hua Brew!
Soon, the wedding procession arrived at the center of Dark Rigid's holy city, the final stop of the wedding. Sister-in-law Jiu Li was in this grand Holy Mother Palace.
But at this moment, the palace doors were tightly shut, and above them hung a lock shining with nine-colored divine light.
Zhu Bo quickly introduced it as the final challenge. This lock, named the Eternal Heart Lock, was a divine artifact crafted by the greatest refining master of ancient times. The method to unlock it had long been lost. The Holy Mother of Dark Rigid used the Eternal Heart Lock as the final challenge.
If the Grand Sky Sect couldn't break it, they would have to drink their Wu Hua Brew and take their treasures to enter!
Ouyang Ming volunteered to break the lock as the greatest refining master of the current era, but after some research, he returned empty-handed. It wasn't that Ouyang Ming couldn't open it, but he couldn't do it in a short time.
Ouyang Ming shook his head helplessly and said, "Senior Brother Xinghe, this time we might have to drink Wu Hua Brew, but rest assured, my Ouyang Family can drink!"
Just as Chu Xinghe was about to reluctantly accept this result, Feng Yuzheng stepped out from the crowd.
"Senior Brother Xinghe, Yuzheng is willing to give it a try!"
"Go ahead!"
Feng Yuzheng walked up to the door, looked at the Eternal Heart Lock, and without hesitation, unleashed a treasure appraisal technique. The once radiant lock instantly lost its luster... and fell to the ground with a clatter...
The lock, now devoid of its brilliance, required no further action and was unlocked instantly...
The Grand Sky Sect's wedding procession erupted in cheers of "God Bless Grand Sky Sect," and Feng Yuzheng returned victorious.
The people of Dark Rigid were dumbfounded. How does the Grand Sky Sect have so many weirdos?
With the palace doors open, the Grand Sky Sect's wedding procession was all smiles, and Chu Xinghe waved his hand towards the Wu Hua Brew.
In no time, led by the Ouyang Family, countless people raised their Wu Hua Brew and drank heartily.
The people of Dark Rigid also raised their Wu Hua Brew to drink with the wedding procession, while marveling at the scene.
As expected of the legendary Chu Xinghe, his actions were truly flawless.
Today, Chu Xinghe broke through the three challenges in different ways, showcasing the strength of the Grand Sky Sect, the number one sect in the world. The Grand Sky Sect only does what it wants, never giving anyone the chance to slander it. And now, after breaking through, everyone raised their Wu Hua Brew and drank heartily, giving Dark Rigid ample face.
The Holy Mother of Dark Rigid watched the scene of joyous drinking outside with a face full of satisfaction.
Next, Senior Brother Feng Fei rode the Golden Scale beast to marry Jiu Li. After various Dark Rigid rituals, the wedding procession placed Jiu Li in the most luxurious bridal sedan, and the wedding procession, along with Dark Rigid's escort team, headed outside the holy city.
Even though Chu Xinghe was prepared, seeing the super, super, super teleportation array that gathered spiritual light and shot straight into the sky still left him stunned.
The Deputy Sect Master is truly my greatest Lucky Star!
Who wouldn't be bewildered by this teleportation array?
With the Deputy Sect Master around, tell me, how could we lose?
Even though the escort team from Dark Rigid numbered in the thousands, and even the Holy Mother of Dark Rigid would accompany them to the Grand Sky Sect, with the number of top-grade spirit stones the Deputy Sect Master used, these people wouldn't exhaust them even if they used the array dozens of times...
The teleportation array's light shot up from Dark Rigid, landing before the Grand Sky Sect's mountain gate.
From the mountain gate of the Grand Sky Sect, a road paved with Ten Perfection Flowers led straight to the Grand Sky Palace. The people of the Grand Sky Sect were used to it.
The people from Dark Rigid, here to escort the bride, looked at the countless Ten Perfection Flowers paving the road and were at a loss for words to express their inner shock.
They had heard of roads paved with red carpets, heard of roads paved with flowers, but who had ever heard of roads paved with spiritual herbs like Ten Perfection Flowers?
What a grand gesture from the Grand Sky Sect.
As they passed through the various palaces of the Grand Sky Sect, everyone, from the highest to the lowest, was dressed in festive attire, and everyone offered their congratulations, bringing tears to the eyes of the Holy Mother of Dark Rigid.
Which mother wouldn't want her daughter to have a grand wedding, and today, Jiu Li wasn't just having a grand wedding... it was unparalleled!
Previously, when Feng Fei received half of Dark Rigid's inheritance, the Holy Mother was worried that the Grand Sky Sect might look down on Dark Rigid.
After all, with half of the inheritance in Feng Fei's hands, Dark Rigid had no chance to regret it.
But now, the Holy Mother knew that the Grand Sky Sect not only didn't look down on them but was marrying Jiu Li in such a grand manner. This was the true dominance of the number one sect in the world.
The wedding procession escorted Jiu Li and Feng Fei into the Grand Sky Palace. After a series of rituals, Feng Fei personally led Jiu Li to pay respects to the Sect Master and the Great Elder.
Sect Master Gu Mingchao sat at the head, and after drinking the tea offered by Jiu Li and Feng Fei, he gave them his blessings.
The two continued to offer tea and pay respects to the Great Elder, whose face was full of smiles all day. Feng Fei was his beloved disciple, and watching him get married was like a father watching his son wed.
The Great Elder said many things, instructing Feng Fei to treat Jiu Li well in the future and to give his all for the sect.
Finally, the newlyweds paid respects to the Holy Mother of Dark Rigid, who, after giving some advice to her daughter and son-in-law, presented the dowry prepared by Dark Rigid for Jiu Li.
Regarding the dowry prepared by the Holy Mother for Jiu Li, Chu Xinghe was not worried at all!
What kind of dowry could compare to the consumption by our Deputy Sect Master? Our teleportation array had drained the sect's top-grade spirit stones, and with the Deputy Sect Master by my side, we couldn't possibly lose!
But just as Chu Xinghe was marveling at the unparalleled dominance of the Deputy Sect Master's teleportation array, the Holy Mother of Dark Rigid presented the dowry prepared by Dark Rigid for Jiu Li.
In the next moment, the smile on Chu Xinghe's face froze when he heard what the dowry was!
What the...
Holy Mother of Dark Rigid, is this really a dowry? You're sending a knife straight to my heart...
Did you really have to choose this joyous day to stab me to death?
