The Transmigrator Who Changed Doupo
Page 237
To ensure the wedding was grand and dignified, Xiao Xuanyuan promised that if the wedding was successfully held, he would refine a batch of high-grade sixth-rank pills for each of the Valley Master Zhang Cangwu and the others. This further motivated the top alchemists, who not only tried their best to be perfect in all aspects that Xiao Xuanyuan had instructed, but also put in extra effort in some aspects that Xiao Xuanyuan had not noticed.
In short, everything is proceeding as Xiao Xuanyuan had anticipated!
Similarly, compared to the red hues used as accents in other parts of the Alchemy Valley, Luoyun Palace and Luonan Palace were decorated in a far more magnificent style. Large red lanterns, double happiness symbols, dragons and phoenixes—nothing was missing. Even the ground and corridors were covered with large red carpets. Along the way, two rows of large dragon and phoenix pendants hung from the ceiling, in pairs, or perhaps a pair of butterflies or a pair of lovebirds—they were incredibly beautiful. Even the trees were adorned with large red lanterns tied with red ribbons. The festive colors and atmosphere were extremely grand!
All the maids and servants were busy serving fruit and snacks and greeting guests who came from all over the Alchemy Valley.
Inside the main palace of Luoyun Palace, Nangong Wan was dressed in a phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, with sleeves covered in auspicious dragon and phoenix patterns. Her extremely beautiful face was adorned with festive red makeup. From afar, her eyebrows were as white as frost, and up close, she looked like a fairy descended from a painting. She was dignified, gentle, reserved, elegant, and noble, and extremely beautiful.
With bright eyes and white teeth, the clever and obedient maids Mingyu and Caihe were serving on either side of Nangong Wan, assisting her with her makeup. As they looked at the angelic beauty in the mirror, they couldn't help but be mesmerized. Mingyu couldn't resist any longer, and her face showed a look of intoxication as she praised, "Palace Mistress, you are even more beautiful than that angel! I can't help but be captivated by your beautiful face."
Caihe combed Nangong Wan's waterfall-like black hair, gently stroking the long, waist-length black hair with her jade-like hands. "I don't know how the Sixth Elder is so lucky. It's a blessing he has accumulated over several lifetimes that our Palace Master can take a liking to him."
“I think he’s not good enough for our Palace Master. It’s like a beautiful flower stuck in a cow.” Before Mingyu could finish speaking, Nangong Wan scolded her, “Mingyu, don’t talk nonsense. Today is my big day. No one is allowed to say a bad word about Xuanyuan.”
"Yes," Mingyu quickly shut her mouth, glancing at Nangong Wan with a hint of fear.
"Although Xuanyuan is usually a bit frivolous, he's actually quite good to me. After today, I will marry him, and he will be the master of you two little girls. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll tell Xuanyuan and he'll teach you two a lesson." Nangong Wan rolled her eyes at Mingyu and Caihe, but her face showed a hint of anticipation and trepidation.
Mingyu, now quick to speak kindly, extended her slender hand to check the neatness of Nangong Wan's wedding robes. "Palace Master, Mingyu misspoke earlier. Actually, the groom is handsome and refined, the top alchemist in our Alchemy Valley, and the academy's number one war god. Countless girls admire and are infatuated with him. Now that he and Palace Master have become husband and wife, living happily ever after, you two are truly a match made in heaven, a perfect couple, a match made in heaven."
"You brat, you're so good with words," Nangong Wan scolded playfully, but her smile only grew wider.
Nangong Wan was extremely confident in her celestial beauty; otherwise, that brat wouldn't have been so captivated that he would run to her Luoyun Palace every few days. However, marriage was a major life event, and this was the first time for a young woman to get into a bridal sedan chair. While she was extremely happy, she also felt a mix of emotions, such as trepidation, but mostly she felt a sweet feeling.
Chapter Eighteen: The Wedding Was About to Fall Through
Xiao Xuanyuan was naturally unaware of the intimate conversation between the master and servants inside the main palace of Luoyun Palace.
At this moment, he was in the palace of the Luo Nan Palace Master, dressing up in a festive red robe that draped gracefully over his body, perfectly showcasing his strong, streamlined physique like that of a tall model.
The flower fairy's eyes held a hint of complexity as she, like a virtuous wife and loving mother, tidied his clothes, combed his long hair, tied it behind his head, and applied light makeup and curves to his eyebrows. A handsome, elegant, and dashing young man emerged. Only after she had put a pair of festive black boots on him did the flower fairy nod.
"Junior brother, I'm all dressed. What do you think?"
Xiao Xuanyuan nodded, looking at the elegant and handsome young man in the mirror, and thought it was quite good. His senior sister was indeed quite good at dressing up.
"Okay, Senior Sister, that's enough for me. I'll head out now."
Xiao Xuanyuan naturally didn't notice the Flower Fairy's reaction. His mind was completely focused on today's wedding, which was with Nangong Wan. Today, apart from Nangong Wan, there was no one else in his heart or mind!
Just as he took two steps and was about to leave, a soft figure suddenly pounced on him from behind, a pair of delicate hands tightly hugging his strong waist, and her head slowly pressed against his back, unwilling to let go for even a moment.
"What's wrong, Senior Sister?"
Xiao Xuanyuan was somewhat puzzled, and gently grasped those fair and delicate hands with his palm.
"Let me hold you a little longer, because after today, you may no longer belong to me."
The fairy's voice revealed a hint of sadness. No one could understand her thoughts at this moment. Her man was getting married today, but the bride was not her. That painful and complicated feeling made her heart ache.
"Silly girl, I will be yours from now on. But today I am marrying my master. You should be happy." Xiao Xuanyuan gently patted her soft hand.
"But"
The flower fairy wanted to continue being affectionate with Xiao Xuanyuan, but Xiao Xuanyuan reached out and pulled her hand away, turned around, and pulled her into his arms. "Alright, senior sister, today is a day of great joy for me. Don't look so gloomy all day long. It's not good for others to see you like that."
"I don't want you to marry her," the Flower Fairy hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "I already have Nianxiao with you, wouldn't it be better if we got married?"
Hearing this, Xiao Xuanyuan felt a headache coming on. He rubbed his forehead and said, "Fairy, we will be together in the future and we will get married together. But today is my and my master's big day. Please don't mess things up for me, okay?"
"It's just that I don't want to," the flower fairy said, her face showing a hint of bitterness and her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Xiao Xuanyuan never expected that his senior sister, who was usually the most sensible and well-mannered, would cause trouble for him at this crucial moment. However, he was already on the verge of disaster and had no choice but to act. His expression immediately turned serious.
"Senior sister, let me tell you the truth. Although I admit that I haven't been devoted enough to you, if you don't want to see this wedding today, then don't come to participate. And don't try to stop me, or don't blame me for turning ruthless!"
After pulling the flower fairy away, Xiao Xuanyuan turned and left. Just before leaving the door, he turned his head slightly and said coldly, "No one can do anything about it. You better remember this! Don't bring Nianxiao out to ruin my marriage with my master."
Faced with Xiao Xuanyuan's indifferent departure, the Flower Fairy couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and quietly wiped away her tears. However, after a moment, she composed herself, forced a smile, and walked out.
"Congratulations! Congratulations on the marriage of Elder Xiao and Elder Nangong! May you be a perfect couple!"
"Congratulations! Today is truly a joyous day. I've come to offer my congratulations to the newlyweds."
At the gates of Luo Nan Palace, countless alchemist disciples dressed in new clothes and laughing with joy came forward to offer their congratulations, while the maids and servants of Luo Nan Palace continuously welcomed these guests into the palace.
Just then, four powerful auras, riding on wings of battle qi, gracefully approached. They were none other than Valley Master Zhang Cangwu and the other three elders of Huo Rong.
Xiao Xuanyuan naturally sensed their arrival and came out to greet them in advance.
"Congratulations, Elder Xiao! May you and Junior Sister Nangong be forever united in love and get married." Valley Master Zhang Cangwu laughed heartily, his face beaming, and stepped forward to offer his congratulations. The other three members of Huo Rong also offered their congratulations. Xiao Xuanyuan also walked over with a smile and cupped his hands in greeting to everyone.
"Come, everyone, please come in. Today is my joyous occasion. Please don't stand on ceremony and enjoy the fine wine and food." Since they were being so kind, Xiao Xuanyuan greeted them with a smile. As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face.
"Alright, most of the guests have arrived. It's time to go and welcome Master back to Luo Nan Palace." As he was about to welcome Valley Master Zhang Cangwu and the others into Luo Nan Palace, Xiao Xuanyuan prepared to set off for Luo Yun Palace to bring Master Nangong Wan back.
But just then, a large number of dark figures appeared in the distant sky.
Looking in that direction, Xiao Xuanyuan Tong Kong shrank slightly after recognizing the person who had arrived. "Wow! Why are they all here?"
It was Su Qian, the Grand Elder of the Inner Court, followed by Hu Qian, the Dean of the Outer Court, and about a dozen other student elders. Behind these elders were Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei, Xiao Xue, the Little Witch Hu Jia, and on the other side were Little Fairy Doctor, Princess Yaoyue, and Princess Xiaoyue (his sister-in-law). Finally, he even spotted Xiao Ziyan, Han Yue, Liu Fei, and Lan Yiyi.
Holy crap, why are they all here?!
Seeing such a terrifying group of people, Xiao Xuanyuan felt a chill run down his spine. He had stepped on a landmine today. With so many landmines, it was bound to explode. He hadn't invited these people at all, so why did they all show up on their own? How strange!
Just then, Xiao Xuanyuan suddenly turned his gaze to Elder Su Qian and the others who were smiling as they looked at the sky from the palace gate. "Valley Master Zhang, I don't recall inviting the Elders. How come they all came on their own? Did you inform them? Hmm?!"
In an instant, a dangerous glint appeared in Xiao Xuanyuan's eyes.
Valley Master Zhang Cangwu was also startled. He reached up and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "I just mentioned it to the Grand Elder and the others because of your happy occasion with Junior Sister Nangong. I invited them over to give you more face, and it'll be more lively with more people. What's wrong? Is there something amiss?"
Seeing that it really was this fool who had invited him, Xiao Xuanyuan was furious and cursed through gritted teeth, "You really know how to do good deeds wrong. If my marriage with my master falls through this time, I will use your head as a sacrifice!"
Chapter Nineteen: The Cunning Little Zi Yan
Upon seeing the ferocious look on Xiao Xuanyuan's face, Valley Master Zhang Cangwu was terrified. He asked in a trembling voice, "Elder Xiao, what does this have to do with me?"
"Hmph, don't you know the relationship between those women and me? Ah!"
Enraged, Xiao Xuanyuan reached out and grabbed Zhang Cangwu, that old scoundrel, in front of him, dangling him in mid-air.
"Cough cough," Zhang Cangwu choked, his face turning red, and he couldn't even breathe properly. "Elder Xiao Xiao, what are you doing?"
This sudden scene startled everyone present in front of Luo Nangong Palace. Huo Rong and the others wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but they were all sent flying by Xiao Xuanyuan's palm. The alchemist disciples who had just arrived were also terrified and dared not utter a sound.
"You old fool, let me tell you, all those women following the Grand Elder are people I know, and they all have connections with me. If my marriage to Master Nangong falls through today, I'll skin you alive!"
"
A ruthless look appeared on Xiao Xuanyuan's face, and he slightly tightened his grip, making the Valley Master Zhang Cangwu choke even more.
"Elder Xiao Xiao, I, the Valley Master, am also unaware of the truth, please forgive me!" Valley Master Zhang Cangwu exerted all his strength to circulate his battle qi, trying to get his words out. His face turned even redder, like a monkey's bottom.
"Humph!"
Xiao Xuanyuan threw him to the ground. "I'll settle this with you later!"
In the distant sky, Su Qian initially thought he was still very far away, but when he noticed the movement in front of Luo Nangong, his speed suddenly increased, and in the blink of an eye, he was almost in the air and landed.
"Elder Xiao, what's going on?"
As soon as Su Qian arrived, he saw the Valley Master Zhang Cangwu lying injured on the ground, as well as Huo Rong and several other elders who were flying back injured in the distance.
"Elder Su, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but it's one thing for you to bring a group of elders, but why did you bring women like Xiao Yu along? Isn't that embarrassing me?"
Xiao Xuanyuan immediately launched into a barrage of questions, his eyes flashing with coldness, and a terrifying aura emanating from his body, enveloping Su Qian.
In an instant, Su Qian felt as if he were carrying a huge mountain on his back, making it hard for him to breathe. He took a deep breath, circulated his battle qi, and tried his best to resist the oppressive aura.
Even so, he felt extremely heavy-footed and even had some difficulty breathing. This was only because Xiao Xuanyuan did not want to hurt him. Otherwise, he could have crushed him to death with just his aura and power.
“Ever since they found out about you, they’ve been insisting on coming with you, and I had no choice but to say it,” Su Qian said with some difficulty.
"Who told them about me? I think if no one had told them, they probably wouldn't have known." Xiao Xuanyuan continued to stare intently at Su Qian, and the oppressive aura he exerted on Su Qian gradually intensified, forcing him to comply.
"I don't know either. It must have been an elder who accidentally let it slip, and that's how they found out." Su Qian swallowed hard. This kid's aura was too terrifying. The hard bluestone ground beneath his feet could no longer withstand it and collapsed.
"Hmph, if this marriage between me and my master falls through, I will pursue this matter to the end!" Xiao Xuanyuan waved his hand, and the terrifying aura that had been pressing down on Su Qian was withdrawn. "Moreover, don't think that just because I am an elder of the academy, I can let this go unpunished. There is no room for negotiation on this matter!"
At this moment, Elder Zhongsun and more than ten others who had been following Su Qian arrived and landed on Luo Nangong. Behind these elders were Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei, Xiao Xue, and their group.
These women familiar with Xiao Xuanyuan can be divided into three groups: Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei, Xiao Xue, and the little witch Hu Jia are clearly one small group; Ye Ningyan, Little Fairy Doctor, Princess Yaoye, and her sister-in-law Princess Xiaoyue form another small circle; and Xiao Ziyan, Han Yue, Liu Fei, and Lan Yiyi form yet another loose circle.
Seeing the extremely unpleasant expressions on the faces of these dozen or so women, their gazes filled with anger and resentment, Xiao Xuanyuan felt a headache coming on. His previously cold expression immediately changed, and he forced out a smile that was more like a grimace. He leaned closer, looked up at the sky, and saw a clear blue sky with fluffy white clouds drifting by.
"It might rain today, the weather's bad, why did you come?"
"Hmph, you big bad uncle, you have no sportsmanship! You clearly told me that Xiao Ziyan would marry you when we grew up, how could you secretly get married behind my back? I'll bite you!"
Xiao Ziyan was not scheming and had a simple mind. She was the first to stand up, put her hands on her small waist, and pointed her chubby little finger at Xiao Xuanyuan and started scolding him. Not satisfied with what she said, she rushed up and opened her mouth to bite his thigh.
"Wow!"
Xiao Xuanyuan was immediately startled and quickly reached out to grab Xiao Ziyan's little head to prevent her from biting him. He smiled wryly and said, "Xiao Ziyan, let's talk about it when you grow up. You're not grown up yet, why are you biting me?"
"Hmph, I'll grow up in two years, but that big bad uncle is too mean. He secretly got married without waiting for me. I'm angry!" Little Ziyan pretended to bite again, which startled Xiao Xuanyuan, who held her little head even tighter.
"A thousand ice creams!"
Xiao Xuanyuan held up one finger, but Xiao Ziyan shook her head, shaking her pretty purple braided ponytail that reached her waist like a rattle drum. She was extremely cute and adorable. "I don't want it. I only want Uncle Bad Guy. If I marry Uncle Bad Guy, he will buy me more ice cream!"
Although Xiao Ziyan is a little foodie, she's not stupid. Lately, she's been following Xiao Xuanyuan around, eating and drinking the best food she can get. Whatever she likes to eat, as long as she takes this big bad uncle Xiao Xuanyuan for a stroll in Doulan Commercial Street, he'll definitely buy it for her. He's incredibly good to her, and she can't bear the thought of her big bad uncle being snatched away by another woman!
"I'll give you ten thousand ice creams!" Xiao Xuanyuan tempted again.
"Hmph, I don't want that! I just want that big bad uncle to marry me!" Little Ziyan continued shaking her cute little head.
Xiao Xuanyuan gritted his teeth and came up with a new condition: "Ten thousand ice creams and ten thousand Xizhilang jelly! No more than that!"
This time, Xiao Ziyan hesitated, but when she thought about her big bad uncle marrying another woman, she had to shake her head.
"Add another thousand cakes!" Xiao Xuanyuan's heart was bleeding. Cakes were more expensive than ice cream and Xizhilang jelly, almost several kilos per cake!
"Huh? You big bad uncle, do you have that much fire power?" Little Ziyan's eyes sparkled with excitement.
Seeing that the little one was interested, Xiao Xuanyuan's face lit up with joy, "Little Ziyan, you said yes?"
"What do you mean by 'promise'? This is all food that you, you big bad uncle, gave me willingly. Why not eat it if it's free?" Little Ziyan's big, dark, bright eyes darted around, and she looked smug.
