The Han estate was decorated with lanterns and streamers. It was bustling and noisy. The gloom and gloom from the past few days seemed to disperse slightly, as if it had returned to several decades ago, when the world was at peace.
The school of the Military did not have so many unnecessary formalities. Li Qingshan changed into a new set of clothes and stood at the entrance with Han Tieyi, welcoming the guests. There were many familiar faces among them, as well as blurry or people he did not recognise at all. When they arrived before him, they all became a little more careful, saying cautiously, "Congratulations!"
Li Qingshan received them all with a smile. His smile was not fake at all. Instead, it was joy from the bottom of his heart, which made him seem even more approachable than Han Tieyi on the side.
As a result, the people who had interacted with him in the past could not help but stop worrying. They immediately became more enthusiastic. However, many people who had never interacted with him struggled to believe that he was the shrewd "Daemon King of the North Moon" who had fooled everyone in the world.
During this period of time, the reason for the battle on Great Buddha mountain spread. The violent, bloodthirsty Daemon King had become the hero who had saved the Green province in the blink of an eye. People could not help but find the matters of the world unpredictable. Some of them even doubted it. After all, that was the Sword Collection palace.
However, the Sword Collection palace never responded to all of this, basically tacitly acknowledging the fact that they were colluding with the Demon domain, which made people sigh. It was all thanks to this, or probably not a lot of guests would be bold enough to pay a visit. It was even more terrifying than facing the Soaring Locust King himself. The locust plague was widespread, but they mainly slaughtered mortals. Even though a few cultivators had died in battle, not a single great cultivator had died to the insects. None of the great cultivators who had died on Great Buddha mountain were nameless.
Hwa Seung-zan and Hua Chenglu arrived together. He clasped his hands. "Qingshan, congratulations!"
"Chengzan, I heard that the Hua family has relocated. I thought you wouldn't be coming!"
"How can I not come to your wedding? Not to mention, there's no safer place in the entire Green province than here! "Hwa Seung-zan smiled. He had yet to recover his cultivation, but his bearing seemed even more graceful and composed. However, Hua Chenglu's expression became rather mixed.
Li Qingshan blinked at her. "What's wrong? Don't you recognize me?"
Hua Chenglu felt a sense of familiarity. He was still the same person. It was just that he was more high-spirited than before. He smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Li, you … you really know how to lie! And Big Brother, to think that I called you Big Brother. How dare you hide it from me for so many years! "
Li Qingshan and Hwa Seung-zan looked at each other and smiled. Li Qingshan pretended to be serious and said, "How can you say that I'm lying? Li Qingshan has always been sincere to you! "
"You still dare to speak!" Hua Chenglu called out. Han Tieyi coughed heavily.
Li Qingshan chuckled, "Alright, alright. Hurry up and go in. There are more people coming from behind. "
Hua Chenglu stepped through the door and turned around again. "Brother Li, I really am happy for you and sister Han!"
Li Qingshan nodded. Hua Chenglu gazed at the side of his angular face and thought about how he protected her behind him when they first met. She suddenly felt a sliver of melancholy, but it was only melancholy. She was no longer the little girl from back then.
Two streaks of light descended from the sky. Yue Wuyang and Jin Fugui arrived at the entrance. They looked at the happy Li Qingshan with different expressions. Their intelligence was much better than regular cultivators. The Sword Collection palace's collusion with the Demon domain in an attempt to destroy the Demon Suppression hall was basically certain now, but they found it to be much more absurd than regular cultivators.
This was originally an irresolvable grievance, but right now, they were in no position to criticize Li Qingshan for the massacre. Instead, they blamed themselves for failing to recognize him.
"Fellow cultivators, I didn't think we'd meet again so soon," said Li Qingshan.
"Yeah, I really didn't!" Jin Fugui sighed. Yue Wuyang furrowed his brows and said nothing, as if he was thinking about an extremely difficult problem.
"Great general Yue, we'll be relying on you for today's ceremony," Li Qingshan smiled.
As Han Qiongzhi's master and a Great General King, Yue Wuyang was the most suitable person to host the wedding. He did not say anything else, only responding with a grunt. However, his arrival had already expressed his attitude.
After all, Li Qingshan had shown mercy on Great Buddha Mountain. This was undeniable.
The sun rose into the sky, and the guests all gathered together. They gradually relaxed, temporarily escaping from the Soaring Locust King's shadow and seeking the protection of an even more powerful Daemon King. Just like Hwa Seung-zan had said, there was no safer place in the Green province than here. For a moment, there was a hubbub of voices.
Li Qingshan glanced past the familiar faces one by one. Gu Yanying, Liu Changqing, Liu Chuanfeng, Sun Fubai, Hao Pingyang … Various memories of him in the Clear River prefecture flashed through his mind. His emotions fluctuated slightly, but he simply smiled.
Suddenly, he sensed a familiar aura approach him, and he raised an eyebrow.
A woman walked in. Her long dress trailed behind her, and she was dressed splendidly. Apart from her supreme beauty, she also gave off an extraordinary, strange charm. As she looked around, she was graceful, attracting everyone's attention. She stood in the centre of the hall silently, staring straight at Li Qingshan. The hall immediately fell silent.
Everyone in the Clear River prefecture knew her name. Apart from her cultivation and charm, it was also because of her unclear relationship with the "North Moon" in the past, who was also the main character of today's wedding, Li Qingshan.
Everyone's gazes moved back and forth between the two of them. Han Anjun closed his eyes and sat there without moving, while Gu Yanying touched her lips and smiled silently. Hwa Seung-zan sighed inside and glanced at Hua Chenglu.
However, there was no one else in Begonia's eyes. There was only Li Qingshan. She did not even blink.
"Haitang …" Li Qingshan felt even more troublesome than facing the encirclement of a group of great cultivators when faced with her resentful gaze.
"Peach blossoms with human faces, a prophecy has come true! This is the will of the heavens. What more can I say? "
Begonia's mournful voice echoed through the quiet hall, but she did not rebuke him, nor did she make any requests. She turned around and left.
"The will of the heavens?" Li Qingshan suddenly smiled. He did not take it seriously.
Begonia shuddered and looked back. All she saw was his firm and composed smile, without the slightest hint of regret. She could not help but grit her teeth secretly.
This guy, even now, he's still … Scorching heat rose up in her heart, perhaps due to anger or something else. A smear of red appeared on her pale face, but her desolation was completely swept away. She made up her mind and took off into the air. "Hmph, North Moon, just you wait. I'll make you understand my power sooner or later!"
"Everyone who should be here is here!" Li Qingshan shrugged and said to Gu Yanying in the crowd, "Commander Gu, you're smiling so happily. Do you want to say something too?"
"Do you really want me to say something?" Gu Yanying was intrigued. Her smile was rather mischievous. "Then I'll really say something."
"Alright, forget it!"
