The female cultivator who led the way led Ning Cheng to a seat and immediately retreated. Someone then automatically served him spiritual tea.
The celestial wheels behind Ning Cheng weren't very clear, and his imposing aura didn't look very strong. In the eyes of others, he was at most an Undead Cultivator. Facing such an ordinary cultivator, the people inside just glanced at him before looking away. No one would care about someone like Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng also didn't have any intention to talk to anyone. Those who could come here to attend Su Baijiao's wedding obviously had some background. With his current status, he couldn't make friends with these people.
He quietly sipped his spirit tea while listening to these cultivators talk loudly. Through the conversations of these cultivators, Ning Cheng also learned some things about the Eternal Night Domain.
He also learned that in the void around the Eternal Night Domain, if one was lucky, not only could one find the Perpetual Moon Pill Mountain and Pill Pond, but even the Permanent Essence Pill Pond.
Although Ning Cheng had never seen Permanent Essence Pills, he knew that Permanent Essence Pills were a higher grade cultivation resource compared to Perpetual Moon Pills. It wasn't artificially refined, but condensed from starry sky Essence Qi over countless years in a specific environment. No impurities, no side effects, only pure cultivation Essence Qi.
"This friend, I just heard them say that Senior Ji Gen obtained a Permanent Essence Pill Mountain. If others knew about it, wouldn't they covet it?" Ning Cheng whispered to a cultivator in Heaven's Mandate Realm beside him.
The cultivator glanced at Ning Cheng and spoke with disdain, "Covet? After Senior Ji Gen obtained the Permanent Essence Pill Mountain, he not only advanced to the Eternal Realm, but also surpassed the Eternal Realm. With such power, who would dare covet it? With Senior Ji Gen's cultivation, he naturally left the crevice of the Eternal Night Domain. "
Ning Cheng didn't care about the other party's tone and still politely asked, "You said that Senior Ji Gen obtained a Permanent Essence Pill and could surpass the Eternal Realm? Isn't Permanent Essence Pill a cultivation medicinal pill? I heard that to surpass the Eternal Realm, one must achieve it through Dao Confirming means. "
"What do you know? With a Permanent Essence Pill Mountain, one can naturally reach Dao Confirming ….. "The cultivator felt dissatisfied with Ning Cheng's rebuttal.
Ning Cheng didn't care about it. But a cultivator with narrow eyes sitting a little further away from Ning Cheng suddenly spoke up, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything. The friend who just asked is right. Permanent Essence Pills were just medicinal pills for cultivation. No matter how many there were, it couldn't prove one's Dao. Senior Ji Gen succeeded in reaching the Dao Confirming Realm because he found an opportunity to reach the Dao Confirming Realm on the Permanent Essence Pill Mountain. Permanent Essence Pills can't compare to it. "
"I don't know when we'll have such a great opportunity …" Another cultivator sighed.
Ning Cheng didn't continue to interrupt. He didn't expect that the Eternal Night Domain would have so many Pill Mountains within the void. From the looks of it, this place was suitable for condensing a Pill Mountain. In the future, if he could not earn Perpetual Moon Pills in the Eternal Night Domain, maybe he could go out and look for it. However, before going out, he had to investigate the situation in the Void around the Eternal Night Domain.
With his Starry Sky Wheel, he could definitely go to places that no one had ever gone before.
At this moment, a pretty female cultivator walked into the main hall and stood on the main platform before bowing and speaking, "In order to thank all the guests for coming to my Su Clan as guests, the Little Miss and her son-in-law will come and toast to all the distinguished guests."
The cultivators in the hall immediately stood up and applauded, while Ning Cheng also stood up and applauded behind them.
Although Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness was extremely powerful, he could still hear people whispering behind him, "That Duan Gantai is really lucky to be able to marry into the Su Clan ….."
"Don't talk nonsense. Prepare your gifts. It's impolite to talk about the bridegroom here." Someone immediately interrupted the person's discussion.
Hearing this, Ning Cheng understood that this Duan Gantai was a son-in-law. Moreover, it wasn't that he didn't want to give gifts at the wedding, but that he wanted to give them all at the same time. Ning Cheng thought about it for a moment and understood what was going on. In this place, everyone wanted to give gifts together. Whoever gave less would not only lose face, but would also be looked down upon by others.
This Su Clan really wasn't reserved at all. In China, people paid particular attention to being reserved, and even gift-giving was a very reserved thing. However, in the Eternal Night Domain, gift-giving directly became a matter of sincerity. Ning Cheng couldn't help but wonder if he could bring out the bottle of medicinal pills he had originally prepared.
A moment later, two boys walked into the main hall, holding hands with a man and a woman, and came to the main platform. The woman wore a red shawl and a phoenix coronet on her head, which looked similar to ancient Chinese women getting married. Golden ribbons hung down from the front of the phoenix coronet, which completely covered her face.
Ning Cheng recognised her at a glance. This female cultivator was the woman he had met before, who had given him two jade strips.
When Ning Cheng saw the bridegroom next to Su Baijiao, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. This bridegroom looked just too ugly. His nostrils almost reached the sky, and his pair of thick lips protruded out as if he was afraid that others wouldn't notice. Although his eyes were big, they were round and had no edges at all.
Thinking of Su Baijiao's charming and charming appearance, Ning Cheng couldn't help but laugh in his heart. Even this woman could endure it. Ning Cheng didn't know what advantages this Duan Gantai had, that even Su Baijiao of the Su Clan had to marry him.
As for why Duan Gantai didn't undergo plastic surgery, Ning Cheng didn't find it surprising. Cultivators and ordinary people were different. Cultivators cultivated their hearts to defy the heavens. As the saying goes, one's appearance comes from one's heart. Although one's appearance might change after cultivation, this change would never be too big. One could indeed become more handsome after plastic surgery, but as long as one continued to cultivate, one's appearance would return to normal, even more obvious than before.
Female cultivators mostly had feminine bodies, which meant that they would have a more subtle effect on their appearance compared to male cultivators. There were even some cultivation methods that made female cultivators more beautiful the more they cultivated. Therefore, among the cultivators in the starry skies, female cultivators were much more beautiful. Moreover, this kind of beauty was truly beautiful and could be passed on to future generations, unlike the beauties of some countries. Although one might look like a decent person, everything would become clear after giving birth to offspring.
While Ning Cheng observed Su Baijiao and Duan Gantai, Su Baijiao's spiritual consciousness fell on Ning Cheng at the same time. Ning Cheng quickly retracted his spiritual consciousness and cupped his fists towards Su Baijiao. He knew that Su Baijiao had recognised him.
Sure enough, Su Baijiao gave Ning Cheng a slight nod, seemingly a little surprised. At the same time, Ning Cheng felt an incomparably sharp killing intent sweeping towards him.
It was Duan Gantai. This fellow had a strong sensitivity. Ning Cheng and Su Baijiao had only exchanged a slight greeting, yet this fellow had already sensed it. No wonder the Su Clan wanted to recruit this Duan Gantai. This fellow truly wasn't simple. However, Ning Cheng didn't care about it. Duan Gantai was only at the full-circle of Heaven's Mandate Realm, so he didn't fear him at all.
"Meng Yangze saw Fairy Baijiao three years ago and was shocked by her beauty. Today is a joyous occasion, and Fairy Baijiao is even more stunning. Meng Yangze wishes to congratulate Fairy Baijiao on her wedding, so I present a small gift to express my congratulations ….. "
A handsome man in white robes stood up, instantly diverting Duan Gantai's killing intent towards Ning Cheng. To be precise, it was after the white-robed man said that Su Baijiao was beautiful that Duan Gantai's killing intent fell on this Meng Yangze.
Ning Cheng felt a little speechless. This Duan Gantai was just too sensitive. Meng Yangze had only praised Su Baijiao's beauty a few times, yet this guy was already filled with killing intent. If someone said a word to Su Baijiao, or did something a little too excessive, then wouldn't this guy immediately explode? How would he live with Su Baijiao in the future?
Meng Yangze was the first to send out a gift, and a female cultivator standing behind Su Baijiao immediately came forward with a white jade plate. Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness swept out and saw Meng Yangze put a ring on the jade plate, along with a list of gifts. The list read, "A middle-grade defensive Dao Artefact Jade Hairpin, 100,000 high-grade Immortal Crystals, 5,000 Perpetual Moon Pills."
The ring did not have any restrictions, so Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness seeped into the ring and immediately saw the high-grade Immortal Crystals. In fact, it looked the same as the Starry Sky Crystals in his ring, but much purer than his Starry Sky Crystals. But this was also normal, as the Starry Sky Crystals in his ring were only low-grade. At this time, Ning Cheng also understood that high-grade Immortal Crystals were just another name for Starry Sky Crystals, which meant that they came from a different positional plane.
After the female cultivator received Meng Yangze's gift, she immediately shouted, "Eternal Night Domain's Refining Heart Mountain disciple Meng Yangze presents a middle-grade Dao Artefact Jade Hairpin, 100,000 high-grade Immortal Crystals, 5,000 Perpetual Moon Pills."
Even in Ning Cheng's opinion, this gift list was not light. Unexpectedly, Duan Gantai gave a cold snort and spoke with a muffled voice, "Today is my and Baijiao's wedding day. What do you mean by sending medicinal pills?"
Ning Cheng, like the rest of the cultivators, felt stunned. Perpetual Moon Pills were cultivation resources. Strictly speaking, they were not medicinal pills at all. Besides, even if they were medicinal pills, Duan Gantai, a son-in-law who married into the family, didn't have any subtlety in saying such words on the spot.
Others naturally had good intentions in sending gifts, but this fellow treated others' good intentions as malicious intent.
Meng Yangze's expressions suddenly turned ugly. He had considered giving away Perpetual Moon Pills for a long time. This medicinal pill also had a lot of use to him. Now that he gave it as a gift, not only did others not appreciate it, but they even found fault with him. It was just too much.
At this moment, Su Baijiao suddenly spoke up, "Husband, Senior Apprentice Brother Meng gave Perpetual Moon Pills out of goodwill. Besides, Perpetual Moon Pills are not medicinal pills, so it's not inauspicious."
Duan Gantai gave a snort and did not continue to find fault with her.
Su Baijiao did not seem to care about Duan Gantai's cold snort. Instead, she nodded to the female cultivator who received the gift. The female cultivator who received the gift saw it and continued to read aloud, "Meng Yangze's generous gift, please enter the inner residence and take a seat of honour."
Meng Yangze's complexion turned a little better. He stood up and cupped his fists towards the rest of the people before following the female cultivator who led the way out of the hall.
Ning Cheng understood that only those who gave generous gifts could enter the inner residence as guests. Otherwise, they could only sit here for a while before leaving. It was simply too straightforward. It was just that the person who gave the most gifts would enter the inner residence.
