Red.
It was the color of a celebration in the Unbounded Realm.
After the curtains of the most important Nine Chasms of Heaven Pass, which the cultivators in the outside world believed to be a grand event in the Unbounded Realm and the future Realm Master's future son-in-law selection ceremony, which was known to insiders, had come to an end, the grand celebration was also quietly being prepared like a raging fire.
Dongfang Mingzhu always had the habit of planning.
Xie Tian had yet to display his full strength, but she could let the Palace Lord of the Ceremonial Hall, Kong Xin, wait outside the Yin Yang Sect.
To the Daozu, preparing the wedding ceremony of the future Realm Lord and his son-in-law before the Nine Chasms of Heaven came to an end was very normal.
Seeing that the matter had already been decided, and that Xie Tian, who had just been brought up to the stage by Dongfang Mingzhu, also bowed respectfully to Dongfang Mingzhu. The thousands of thoughts in their minds disappeared, and all that was left was to congratulate her.
Congratulations were also elegant and vulgar.
Ordinary people would say, "Grandmaster, you're really lucky," or congratulate the Realm Lord of Dongfang Mingzhu for getting a good son-in-law.
The Daozu were disdainful of such things.
"Tsk, tsk. He's only at the fifth level of the Prying Origin State, but he's already destined to become a Daozu …"
"His cultivation is excellent, and his combat strength is also a dragon among men!"
"I thought he was only good at scheming, but I never thought he could multitask and even cultivate three at once. This really makes the Old Man exclaim …"
"Haha, only such a talent can become the only candidate for this grand event in the Unbounded Realm!"
…
The Daozu spoke one after another. What they were doing was to correct Xie Tian's name.
Why correct his name?
Because even though Xie Tian was heaven-defying, his background was too low.
In the Western Region, perhaps the Yin Yang Sect was a sect that most cultivators knew, and it was a large sect.
But in the Heavenly Court of Kunxu, or even the entire Two Tribes of the Divine Realm, the Yin Yang Sect was the size of an ant.
How could such a background be worthy of the future Realm Lord of the Unbounded Realm?
They were very sure that Dongfang Mingzhu liked Xie Tian to the core, but his lowly background was a thorn in the Realm Lord's heart.
To them, removing this thorn was just a matter of saying a few words. In exchange, they would be indebted to Dongfang Mingzhu.
Sure enough, when they praised Xie Tian to the point that he didn't know what to do, Dongfang Mingzhu, who maintained her mother-in-law's high and mighty image, glanced at the Daozu with gratitude.
The Dao Ancestors, who had received this glance, ended their praise in satisfaction. This also made Xie Tian heave a sigh of relief.
"Is the Daozu of the Second God Realm really so friendly?"
Xie Tian was very good at dealing with impolite people. He would either ignore them or disappear.
But when it came to those who were polite, he admitted that he was short of tricks.
"As the successor of the Evil Emperor, it's best if I don't expose myself as much as possible. Otherwise, I'll be letting down these seniors …"
At the same time, in order to ensure that the event in the Unbounded World could be carried out smoothly, Master Fu started to spread the news among the cultivators after getting the consent of Dongfang Mingzhu.
"What? The event of the Unbounded World is actually to choose a husband for the future ruler of the Unbounded World? "
"My, my god, doesn't this mean that the grandmaster …"
"Needless to say, that grandmaster is the man of the next ruler of the Unbounded World! Ahhhhh! Can't you tell me earlier about such a big thing! "
"Earlier? You wouldn't have a chance even if you had a million years earlier! "
"Oh my god, could the beauty that appeared in the Nine Chasms of Heaven just now be the future ruler of the Unbounded World?"
"Yeah, that woman is so beautiful. Even though she's wearing a veil, her every move is so charming that it makes my soul leave my body …"
"This grandmaster! He's at the peak of his life! "
…
If the Daozu were elegant, the cultivators were tacky.
Their tackiness revealed all kinds of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
This kind of atmosphere also filled Dongfang Wu's cave residence.
She, who had just escaped from the Nine Chasms shyly, was now being surrounded by dozens of middle-aged women from the Unbounded World.
"Aiya, young miss, I think you should have taught him a lesson back then!"
"That's right, he even dares to make a move on young miss, and this is before marriage!"
"Men, we can't just let him do everything!"
"Especially … I heard that he isn't a disciple of the eight ancient sects? His background is really … "
"Hmph, I wonder what good fortune his ancestors accumulated to be looked upon so highly by our young miss!"
"I only hope that this son-in-law will be sensible after marriage. Even if he doesn't know how to be a good wife and teach children, he should still put his heart into learning!"
…
As the future ruler of the Unbounded World, Dongfang Wu could barely endure the bombardment of dozens of mouths.
Sister Xue and Ying 'er who didn't have the qualifications to interfere had already escaped far away. Even so, the demonic sounds from the cave residence still entered their ears.
"Sister Xue, too scary!"
"When you grow old, you will be like them."
"Hmph, Ying 'er will not be like them. Speaking of which, Sister Xue, why do they look down on son-in-law?" Ying' er was puzzled, "Even young miss said that she can't defeat son-in-law!"
Sister Xue who was silent was about to say something when she suddenly remembered what she said before.
"At least, your battle prowess isn't good enough."
Then, she was dazzled by Xie Tian's absolute battle prowess.
With the previous example in mind, Sister Xue hesitated slightly before saying faintly, "At least, his background isn't good enough for young miss."
"But young miss likes him!"
"That's right, young miss likes him …" Sister Xue said absentmindedly, "That's why even though his background isn't good, his luck isn't bad …"
Whether it was Daozu's praise for Xie Tian or the crowd's envy, jealousy, and hatred towards Xie Tian, they were all talking about the same thing — the strength of the Unbounded World.
After completing this step, Dongfang Mingzhu's mother-in-law aura had accumulated to the extreme.
Taking a deep breath, Dongfang Mingzhu swept her gaze across the countless red lanterns that were about to appear in the void. Her phoenix eyes turned and looked at the slightly nervous Xie Tian.
"During the grand event of the Unbounded World's appearance, you obtained first place in the Nine Chasms of Heaven. Your performance was outstanding and you have won the favor of this Unbounded World's ruler."
Once Dongfang Mingzhu spoke, the heavens and earth became silent.
Xie Tian slightly prepared himself before cupping his fists respectfully and said, "Lord Realm Ruler is too kind with your praise. Junior doesn't deserve it."
"Mm, not arrogant in victory, not discouraged in defeat. Very good." Dongfang Mingzhu smiled and said, "According to the old rules, the winner of the Nine Chasms of Heaven will receive one wish from this Realm Ruler. As long as it is within my power, I will grant your wish."
Xie Tian's heart skipped a beat because of this sentence.
But in the next instant, he took a deep breath and suppressed the surging joy in his heart. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Realm Ruler, for your kindness!"
Dongfang Mingzhu said softly, "Speak, what wish do you have?"
Hearing this, Xie Tian closed his eyes for a long time before bowing again.
"Junior requests Lord Realm Ruler to save a life!"
Once this was said, the heavens and earth became silent.
This kind of silence was not the politeness that everyone should have when listening to Dongfang Mingzhu speak.
"What, what did he say?"
"It seems like he wants Lord Realm Ruler to save, save a person … hiss!"
"What the hell! Is he crazy! This is the son-in-law of the future Realm Ruler of the Unbounded Realm … Oh my god! He, he, he, he, he will not, I don't know … "
…
The shock didn't last long.
When everyone connected the amazing Xie Tian with the Yin Yang Sect, they had a guess —
Xie Tian, who came from a humble background, didn't seem to have the qualification to understand the nature of the event in the Unbounded Realm.
"Phew!"
Dongfang Wu let out a long sigh of relief. When she sat down again, she realized that she was covered in cold sweat.
"Humph, junior, you are too naughty. I … I will not forgive you …"
Dongfang Mingzhu was the first to understand.
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but there was nothing she could do.
"At least, I can't ask for it myself …"
At this moment, Master Fu smiled at Xie Tian with a twitching face, "I will let you know that the person you are looking for is the one guarding the Nine Chasms of Heaven."
Xie Tian was confused, "Senior Sister Dongfang Wu?"
"That's right." Master Fu nodded and smiled, "The Nine Chasms of Heaven is where Miss Dongfang Wu is looking for a husband. The person who passes the Nine Chasms of Heaven will be Miss Dongfang Wu's husband and the son-in-law of the future Realm Ruler."
Xie Tian's eyes shrank when he heard that.
But everyone took this subconscious reaction as the reaction that lowly people should have when facing a blessing from the heavens.
"Hehe, his background is a problem after all …"
"That's true. Even though he is powerful, he hasn't seen much of the world …"
"It's just a small interlude. Next, he should kneel down and thank you for your kindness …"
"Ha, look at him. It will take a long time for him to come back to his senses …"
…
The Daozu's speculation was right.
Xie Tian didn't come back to his senses until a long time later.
He came back to his senses, closed his blood-red eyes, and took a few deep breaths.
Then, he turned around and looked at the Nine Chasms of Heaven. An apologetic look flashed across his eyes.
At last, he turned around and looked at Dongfang Mingzhu.
