Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

Shen Bai and the girls bowed to the teachers to express their gratitude: "We must thank you all for your guidance. Without your meticulous instruction, we would not be where we are today."

The usually aloof Hua Zijing was unusually all smiles: "Alright, don't be so polite. Our role was only minor. We got to where we are today thanks to yourselves. I hope you will continue your efforts and strive to build the Shen family into a new elite family."

Thank you for your kind words!

Shen Bai raised his glass, and many teachers followed suit.

As the heads of various academies of Qingbei Dao Academy, they have witnessed countless geniuses, but few have risen like a comet and dominated their peers like Shen Bai.

In just six and a half years, he achieved the Golden Core stage, a feat that even Dean Lu Shifang, a Nascent Soul expert, would find inferior to.

It should be known that those who can achieve the Divine Transformation stage are absolutely the most outstanding among the prodigies.

This is the main reason why Dean Lu Shifang took time out of his busy schedule to attend the wedding.

Such an exceptional talent has a limitless future.

Perhaps, this is the next ancestor to merge with the ancestral spirit.

As for whether he can become a Heavenly Venerable who has transcended tribulations, it's hard to say, since a Heavenly Venerable requires great fortune to attain.

Although Shen Bai is powerful now, his luck is still lacking.

Turn to the next table, and you'll find familiar faces everywhere.

Principal Mo Qingfeng of Jiangbei No.1 High School, Director Zhuang Songnian, several high school teachers, Deputy Director Du Haiyang of Jiangbei Law Enforcement Hall, Deputy Director Deng Zhi of Ye Sha Hall, and Zhu Shi, an old neighbor whom I haven't seen for a long time.

Shen Bai doesn't have many relatives or friends, but these teachers are essential to invite. He is also very grateful to Zhu Shi for helping to take care of the small courtyard in his hometown over the years.

"Lord Shen!"

Du Haiyang and Deng Zhi were filled with emotion when they saw Shen Bai: "It's only been a few years, and your position is already higher than ours."

Shen Bai looked at the two men with a smile: "Would you two be interested in coming to Qiyuan Star to help me? I have plenty of space and many positions available, and I'm short-staffed!"

Du Haiyang was tactful and Deng Zhi was capable; he naturally had his reasons for inviting them to the wedding banquet.

Du Haiyang and Deng Zhi exchanged a glance. Although they had guessed it, they didn't expect the other party to extend an invitation directly to the wedding banquet. Du Haiyang glanced at Wan Lin, the head of the Night Fiend Hall, who was sitting at the main table, and hesitated for a moment: "Let's discuss it later."

Deng Zhi didn't speak, but the intention in his eyes was already very clear.

Jiangbei is a small place; even if there is a secret realm there, it's still just a small place.

Qiyuan Star, however, has great potential.

A good bird chooses its tree to perch on. Although Deng Zhi did not want to go to a place like the capital, he was very interested in Qiyuan Star.

Shen Bai nodded with a smile. These matters were left unsaid; if the other party was truly interested, they would contact him.

After toasting with a few others, he came up to Zhu Shi and said, "Uncle Zhu, you've worked hard these past few years."

Zhu Shi felt somewhat uneasy. The little fellow who used to help him repair magical artifacts had now become the dignified consort of the Sixth Princess and the Marquis of Jiangbei.

He felt a bit overwhelmed by this huge change in status, but mostly he felt gratified. With tears in his eyes, he said, "Although I shouldn't say this on such a joyous day, I still have to say it on behalf of Old Shen: You've brought honor to the family!"

Zhu Shi's words made An Li and the other girls feel somewhat sad.

With his parents still alive, Shen Bai only had one person of his parents' generation present. On such a joyous day, who could understand the regret in Shen Bai's heart?

Shen Bai gave Zhu Shi a tight hug: "Thank you, Uncle Zhu. Why don't you come to Qiyuan Star too? We need more people here."

Zhu Shi shook his head and said, "Forget it, all I know is how to repair magical artifacts. I might as well stay in my hometown and help you guard the old house."

Seeing that he spoke earnestly and had no intention of feigning refusal, Shen Bai stopped trying to persuade him and instead looked at Du Haiyang and Deng Zhi, who immediately nodded.

The Zhu family's old house and Shen Bai's old house were already within the scope of the two's key protection, so they were naturally happy to do this favor.

……

After paying respects to his elders, teachers, and colleagues, Shen Bai led the four girls to his classmates' table.

"Oh my, isn't this Lord Shen? Quickly, pay your respects to the Lord!"

"Oh dear, how can you be so pandering? I just want to ask, does Lord Shen need any more accessories? Perhaps consider your old classmate!"

"How could you do this? Unlike me, I don't ask for much. Does the Marquis need more stone lions at his gate? I can have them!"

……

When classmates of the same generation chat, there is naturally a lot more intimacy and banter.

An Li and the others relaxed.

"Sister, that's going too far!"

Xie Beibei walked up to Bai Qingqing with her wine glass in hand, her eyes filled with murderous intent: "We agreed to attack together, but you always sneak up on us and raid our base."

Bai Qingqing smiled and said, "You can come and raid my house tonight too."

Xie Beibei was furious: "Tonight is your wedding night, and you want me to sneak into your house? Do you want me to die already?"

Bai Qingqing hugged her and shook her vigorously: "My good sister, if I get bullied at home in the future, you must come and support me."

Xie Beibei, with her strong sense of chivalry, immediately turned to Shen Bai upon hearing this: "Shen Bai, you better behave yourself! The entire class of Class 2, Grade 12 is watching you. If you dare to bully Qingqing, we'll crush your balls!"
