Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 130: The Master’s Wedding
Half a month later, Taoist Hei Lu came to Chongming Sect and said that the Fei family had set the wedding date for the middle of next month.

The Fei family's Sheshan Hall selected a daughter of the clan. As the elder, the Black-Shoe Taoist and the Ice Man saw her appearance and came back without saying anything else, only that she was not bad.

That is enough. Counting back sixteen generations, this clan daughter’s family had a person who was in charge of other provinces.

Not to mention that the color is not bad, even if the color is a little worse, it is still the genuine golden elixir. It is not your turn, Kang Dabao, a mud-footed man, to complain about this and that.

The next thing to do is to accept the marriage proposal, ask for the name, accept the good news, accept the betrothal gift, and ask for the date. All the necessary formalities must be followed.

The leader of the sect was going to marry the daughter of the Fei family. This major event made the entire Chongming Sect, including the mortals in Chongming City, busy.

The archway that Chongmingzong had just repaired was painted again.

Several young men emptied out several silk shops in Chongming City. They panted and held the wind, pulled up red silk and decorated the expanded Chongming Sect's residence with joy.

Kang Dahou, who had not been in charge for a long time, also came out with a trembling cane and led a group of Kang family members to act as supervisors.

First, he mobilized all the citizens in the city to thoroughly clean Chongming City several times, but they were still not satisfied. Then he spent a large amount of public funds to buy a large number of flowers for decoration, making the ancient and plain old city full of vitality.

Every family in Chongming Market was also very happy. If Chongming Sect could really become prosperous from now on, maybe they, the neighbors, would be able to get some benefit from it.

Putting aside other things, there should be no problem in upgrading Chongming Market to Chongming Market, and business will be better by then.

But if Master Kang really had the misfortune of becoming a thorn in the eyes of those bigwigs, the Chongming Sect might be destroyed, and Chongming City would probably not be able to escape. But it doesn't make sense for the merchants who rent shops like them to suffer the same misfortune, right?
Therefore, the Chongming Market was also decorated with lanterns. After all, Kang Dabao was the mayor of the market, and a few red lanterns were not worth much, so why not? With this festive atmosphere, even curious casual cultivators could be attracted.

While preparations were still in full swing in Chongming City, the Fei family's dowry had also arrived.

It was brought by several old cultivators with gloomy faces. It contained three thousand spirit stones, two sets of lower-grade Hong-level exercises with annotations, and two armored sword puppets of the seventh level of Qi training.

Thanks to Kang Dabao, the shop located in Lu Workshop in Xuanwei City was finally reopened. The discussion about this new event was no less than that about the Fei family's daughter's marriage.

Even though Xuanwei City was in such chaos when the entire Niu family of Dingnan was displaced, the puppet shop of Lu Workshop remained intact, but there was still no business to do.

The four big words "Nascent Soul Force" can indeed deter most of the evil and bandit cultivators with brains from doing foolish things.

However, when the dowry arrived, Kang Dabao was in trouble.

If we were to use these things as the betrothal gift, even if we tied up and sold the entire Chongming Sect, including the nearly 100,000 ordinary people in Chongming City, it would still not be enough.

Take out the things found in the coffin? Master Kang was reluctant to do so. Those were valuable things that could not be seen in public. He was still thinking of using them to train disciples and glorify his family.

"Forget it. Anyway, I am from a poor family and was forced to marry you, the Fei family." Kang Dabao thought that since he had no money on hand, instead of preparing a shabby betrothal gift, he might as well use the "Chongming Danben" which had been passed down from generation to generation in the Chongming Sect as a betrothal gift.

Anyway, there's nothing better to come up with, at least this can give the Fei family something new to read.

So he turned around and discussed it with his four brothers. No one thought it was a good idea, but they just racked their brains and couldn't think of a better option.

Pei Yi felt that it was inappropriate the most. He was thinking that if the Fei family was annoyed and offended by the betrothal gift, what would happen to Chongming Emperor in the future.

Just at this time, the Taoist priest Hei Lu came and invited him to discuss the matter together. He then said softly, "The betrothal gift has always been a matter for the elders in the family to worry about. Why should you ask about it?"

Then he took out a silk document that had been prepared long ago and handed it to Pei Yinian. Dozens of precious items were slowly mentioned, and the brothers and sisters of Chong Mingzong were so shocked that their jaws dropped.

"How can this be done?" Kang Dabao was knowledgeable and knew that even an ordinary foundation-building cultivator would not be able to afford so much money to marry his son off.

Unexpectedly, this Uncle Black Shoe is so rich. Could it be that he sold off the Hemu Dao?

"The lunchbox is just to show my brother He's kindness." The black-shoe Taoist sighed softly and made a gesture that did not allow for any discussion. After hearing his tone, the five juniors could only thank him in unison and put their worries aside.

In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding day.

Several bridesmaids from the Fei family arrived at Chongmingzong a few days in advance, and in a few seconds they tore down all the arrangements that the younger generations had been busy with for a while.

The Fei family also sent people to Chongming City. The flowers that Kang Dahou had spent a lot of effort to buy all over the city were considered tacky by the Fei family, so they were all removed in just half a day.

The Fei family decorated the hall in an elegant and grand manner according to the "Royal Guard Rites". They felt that Kang Dabao's newly built main hall was not grand enough, so they paid out of their own pockets to hire a foundation-building master to use the mountain-moving technique to move a main hall from Xuanwei City.

This move stunned a bunch of country bumpkins in Chongming Sect.

In the past few days, they have been politely declined when they wanted to help. The Fei family even disdained the two cooking utensils that Jin Shilun always cherished, and brought their own set. There were also some fruits, vegetables, meat and vegetables provided by Chongming Sect, which had to be paid for with spirit stones.

Well, what can I say about this behavior? Never mind. I don’t consider these people from my mother’s family as my own anyway.

Kang Dabao was sitting in the unfamiliar main hall at this moment, feeling very worried.

Several disciples stood aside, all wearing new clothes, with happy faces. No matter how distant the Fei family was towards them, they were still full of anticipation for the upcoming Master's Wife.

Pei Yi, Yuan Jin and an old cultivator from the Fei family sect were welcoming guests in front of the mountain gate.

Puzhou Shishan Sect, Fengzhou Ge Family, Jingnanzhou Yuan Family, Yunjiaozhou Court, Xuanwei City Fantasy Sword Alliance, Tiejiaoshan Qiaogong Fort, Shen County Zifeng Valley
These sects that had been building their foundations for many years gradually lost contact with the Chongming Sect after the death of the powerful Patriarch Zhang.

Master Kangda had imagined countless times the scene of holding a foundation-building ceremony for Jiang Qing in the future, which would be just like the scene today with many guests gathering and a bustling crowd.

But today, except for a few families including Hemu Dao, all those who came were guests of the Fei family.

Before He Dezong came, he was very excited and thought that he could sit closer to the main table. However, after a quick look, he found that he had already found a seat at the last table along with the three nearby families and the Kuai family, which were small forces.

Facing the crowd of foundation builders at the table, they all shrank their heads and dared not utter even a single extra syllable.
"Brother, it's time to go out and welcome them." When the time came, Jiang Qing reminded him.

"Oh, oh, I see. I'll go now." Kang Dabao stood up like a puppet, and walked through the joking and laughing expressions of the guests along the way. He felt like a huge stone was pressing on his heart, and fatigue showed on his face.

Next to him was an old woman sent by the Fei family, who was looking sullen. She followed him closely and said, "Sir, why are you so sad on your wedding day? If outsiders see you, they will say that my Fei family has wronged you."

"It is the junior who is rude." Kang Dabao responded in a muffled voice, and took out a pill of "Happy Face Pill" prepared by the Fei family from his sleeve. After swallowing it for a while, a smile finally appeared on his face.

The old woman snorted and then gave up.

"Here comes the bride!"

"Today you will be able to see the beauty of the Fei family's daughter."

"Play music, play music."

The Fei family's band of musicians gathered their strength, and as the joyful music of "The Goddess Delivering a Child" began playing, a huge black falcon carrying a bright red brocade curtain quickly flew closer from a distance.

Several maids stood outside the tent, each holding a basket of new flowers and scattering them along the way.

When the flowers left the basket, there were only a few scattered flowers. Once they entered the air, they broke into thousands and floated down. The rain of flowers in the sky made the small mountains look magnificent, attracting the attention of all the guests.

The black falcon, also wearing a red silk on its head, circled in the air for a while, dropped a bright red brocade to pave the way to the lobby, and then landed steadily.

"Brother, it's time to go up." Jiang Qingcai gently poked Kang Dabao from behind, and the old woman with colorful clothes beside him pulled him forward.

I have lived for nearly seventy years in my two lives, and I have never felt as heavy-hearted as I do now. Walking slowly, two pretty maids put down the escalator, and Kang Dabao climbed onto the Xuan Falcon with a silly smile on his face.

"Congratulations! Que'er congratulates the son-in-law, and wishes the son-in-law and the young lady a long and happy marriage, and a son soon." A small yellow-feathered bird flew in from the side of the tent. It was just an ordinary animal, but it could speak human language.

The clear and crisp congratulations made Master Kang feel a little better. He took out two spiritual fruits the size of finger joints from his sleeve and fed them to the cat.

It was so happy that it chirped and talked a lot of nice things. It was not until the pretty maid beside him urged him repeatedly that Kang Dabao followed the little bird that led the way and walked to the brocade tent.

After Kang Dabao took the golden Ruyi from the jade tray held by the pretty maid standing beside him, he lifted the gauze curtain.

There was no one in the brocade tent. There was only a set of ceremonial dress with wide sleeves and a skirt, with flowers and hairpins, neatly placed on the wedding stool.

"No one!" Kang Dabao was shocked. Before the silly smile on his face faded, he heard a commotion coming from the guests behind him.

Que'er's congratulations were still ringing in the ears of Kang Dazhang: "Congratulations, congratulations, son-in-law."
