Before Tong Meng entered the Biquan Xianzong, the Tong Family lived in poverty. At one point, they did not even have enough food to feed Tong Meng. Thus, the adoptive mother had no choice but to sign a contract with the Lu Family, betrothing Tong Meng to a manservant of the Lu Family. It was considered a child betrothal.
In Luwang Town, such things had long been commonplace. Whoever's family had an additional child, if they were really poor to the point of not being able to raise them, even if they were sent to the Lu Family to be an ox or horse, to become a servant girl or concubine, it was still better than starving to death.
In this way, Tong Meng was considered half a member of the Lu Family.
This contract was signed by both parties, written in official documents, and sent to the local government to be registered.
Later, Tong Meng was taken in by Elder Biquan Xianzong and brought back to the sect. Because there were Immortal cultivators interfering, the secular people did not dare to defy. Hence, this matter was left unsettled.
Who knew that when Tong Meng returned to visit her family, the Lu Family somehow got wind of the news at the first instance. They took the contract signed by the adoptive mother and came to propose marriage.
This contract had the official documents of the government and was guaranteed by the law. Hence, the Lu Family came to propose marriage with confidence. Helpless, the adoptive mother could only agree to this marriage.
Hence, the sound of drums and gongs was the Lu Family's wedding procession coming to marry Tong Meng!
With Chu Chen's character, it was impossible for him to let Tong Meng marry someone else. Hence, Tong Meng explained in the communication jade tablet that she was going this time only to settle this secular grudge.
Through the communication jade tablet, Little Junior Sister asked Chu Chen to leave first and wait outside the town for her to personally end the last thing in this mortal world.
Chu Chen knew that with Little Junior Sister's tyrannical cultivation at the ninth level of the Spirit Water Realm and the Cloud Light Illusionary Moon Steps, this kind of ancient martial art, it was naturally impossible for a prominent family in a small town to be her match.
On this day, Luwang Town started to be unprecedentedly lively.
The Lu Family's marriage was a major event to the entire town. Early in the morning, the Lu Family sent people to go door to door to give gifts.
The procession this time was unprecedentedly grand. The bridal procession walked from West Street to East Street, stretching for half a mile. Someone asked around and found out that she was the second son of the Lu Clan's Patriarch. The Lu Clan's Second Master married the 13th concubine.
According to the Lu family's marriage rules, they had to write down three books and set down six rites. Once they were done with all the rites, it would take a full month before they could officially get married.
This time, the Lu family announced to the world that the bride was a cultivator and did not like excessive formalities. Therefore, all the procedures had to be completed within a day.
Although the people in the town felt a little strange, who would dare to criticize the Lu family?
Finally, when it was time for the bride to board the sedan chair, the inside and outside of the Tong family's small courtyard were already crowded with people.
After the matchmaker, Auntie Li, called out three times, the door of the Tong family's room finally opened. Tong Meng was dressed in white and looked like a fairy. She supported her adoptive mother and slowly walked out of the door.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned for a moment. Wasn't the bride supposed to wear a phoenix coronet, a red wedding veil, a red wedding veil, and hold a red flower of happiness in her arms? What's with the white robes he's wearing?
Even Auntie Li, who was in charge of the marriage, was stunned. However, she had been a matchmaker for many years and was quick-witted. She immediately shouted, "The thirteenth madam is a fairy who cultivates the Dao. Naturally, we can't treat her with mortal etiquette. This white dress is as pure as snow and is many times prettier than the phoenix coronet! "
Hearing her shout, everyone came to a sudden realization. Legend has it that the youngest daughter of the Tong family was brought to a celestial mountain by an old immortal three years ago to cultivate. She was no longer tainted by the aura of a mortal. As the saying goes, immortals and mortals were different. A fairy's marriage naturally could not be judged by common sense.
When Tong Meng heard this voice, her expression did not change. Her fairy-like face was always calm and transcendent.
In this life, she would only wear the wedding dress for one person. Obviously, it would not be this Second Master Lu.
She slightly raised her hand and lifted the curtain of the big red wedding sedan. She stepped in.
This time, the Lu family seemed to have spent a lot of money to marry this peerless fairy.
The sedan was extremely luxurious. It was paved with the best red silk. The inside was extremely spacious. Even when Tong Meng and her adoptive mother sat down, there was still half of the space left.
There was also an incense burner inside the sedan. Wisps of faint incense slowly drifted out and enveloped the entire space.
Tong Meng frowned slightly. As soon as she entered the sedan, she faintly felt that something was wrong. However, she did not know what exactly was wrong.
However, since she was here, she might as well take things as they came. With her current cultivation, she could even come and go freely in the imperial palaces of the Great Xia and Great Liang Dynasties, let alone this remote and famous family.
Seeing Tong Meng's frown, her adoptive mother sighed slightly. She already regretted letting her daughter come back to visit. If she had known, she would not have let her come home.
However, now that things had come to this, she was powerless to resist. Not to mention herself and Tong Meng, even a large family could not resist the Lu family.
Just like this, with their own thoughts, the mother and daughter sat in the sedan. With the sound of "Raise the sedan", they began to walk towards the Lu family.
When the majestic wedding procession carried the sedan to the Lu family's gate, the entire small town was in an uproar. This was because everyone had heard that the Lu family's second master was marrying a fairy who cultivated the Dao of Immortality.
What did a fairy look like? Everyone was extremely curious.
When the sedan door opened and Tong Meng walked out holding her adoptive mother's arm, everyone was stunned.
Tong Meng was dressed in white. Her temperament was as ethereal as a fairy's. Her face was exquisite and flawless. Amidst her cuteness, there was a tenderness that made one's heart ache. Everyone could not help but let out cries of surprise. They called her a fairy who had descended to the world.
With Tong Meng's beauty, even in Biquan Xianzong's Jade Flower Valley where beauties were as common as clouds, she could be considered one of the best. Moreover, in this remote town, when had the common people ever seen such a beautiful woman? They were shocked to the point of being speechless.
Tong Meng was still wearing the clothes she had worn when she left Biquan Xianzong. She did not wear the phoenix coronet and red wedding veil that a married woman would wear. However, in the eyes of others, they did not feel that there was anything wrong. A fairy getting married was naturally extraordinary. She was definitely different from the women in the secular world.
With this thought, everyone held their breaths and watched as Tong Meng held her adoptive mother's arm and got off the sedan without saying a word. When they slowly walked to the Lu family's gate, Tong Meng suddenly stopped. She turned her head and looked at the surrounding villagers. She raised her voice slightly, "Lu family's steward, come out and speak."
"Meng 'er, what are you doing!"
Seeing Tong Meng's strange actions, her adoptive mother was slightly shocked and hurriedly asked in a low voice.
"Mother, don't worry. Your daughter knows what to do."
Tong Meng gently touched her adoptive mother's arm, indicating for her to be at ease.
