Smoky Puppet was right about one thing. There was still more than half a year before the trip to Peacock Palace. Their group would be sent there by Martial Uncle Jin Dan, so there was still plenty of time. He didn't want to stay here and be everyone's target, even if it was just flattery.
After reporting to Gu Gang, the two of them left the dome. On the way, Lou Xiaoyi was still chattering.
"Senior Sister! Can't you tell me the truth? Is it really a drinking party? Or is it that you used me as a shield? If you don't tell me clearly, don't blame me for eating and not doing anything! "
Smoky Puppet glared at him. "It's a wedding! Not a drinking party! "
After a pause, she explained, "I have a sister, the very good kind. We both came from the Azure Sky Great World and came to the Fifth Ring together to pursue our dreams! I'm in Xuanyuan, and she's in the Surging Waves Pavilion. You might not be familiar with it, but in Azure Sky, Xuanyuan and Surging Waves are the two great sects of the same continent. However, Surging Waves is weaker, and they put most of their energy in their hometown, Azure Sky. Here, they're just a very average mid-sized sect.
As for my sister, describing her as an outstanding beauty might be a bit of an understatement. In short, she's the kind that you men can't take your eyes off. A few years ago, I invited her to a gathering of Foundation Establishment disciples in Xuanyuan. There were friends from various friendly sects in the Western Regions … "
Lou Xiaoyi shouted, "Wait! This is the key! Why didn't you call me for such a thing? Keep the goodies within the family! A fresh flower should be planted in a pile of cow dung instead of being wasted outside! "
Smoky Puppet glared at him. "She's a good girl …"
Lou Xiaoyi was unconvinced. "Am I not a good man? Senior Sister, to think that I treated you so well. The outstanding Swordsman from Weijian Mountain thought of you, but you … "
Smoky Puppet said firmly, "I only love the sword in my life, and don't think about anything else! Don't try to change the topic, listen to me!
Who would have thought that I would bring my sister here to broaden her horizons out of kindness? Who would have thought that she would shine at the gathering and attract countless admirers! "
Lou Xiaoyi laughed. "They have no taste! Instead of pursuing a great beauty like you, Senior Martial Sister, they gave up what was close at hand for what was far away. They are all fools … "
Although Yan Cheng was very annoyed by his rascal behavior, the compliment in his words was enough to make any woman feel happy. She had not yet reached the state where her heart was as still as an ancient well, where she could not be happy or sad. After all, Zhuji was just the beginning of cultivation.
He sighed, "I can't do it! Just by looking at me, she knows that I'm not a good candidate for a Dao companion!
My sister is different. She's gentle, considerate, good at understanding others, and has a good personality. Her cultivation technique is also soft and gentle. She's a good companion that many people dream of. Thus, everyone flocked to her!
Her sect wasn't based in Xuanyuan, so there were a lot of troubles that Xuanyuan didn't have! Unfortunately, she was someone who valued relationships more than cultivation. She looked down on so many handsome young men from the large sects, but she had her eyes set on a young man from a small sect!
This time, her wedding was held according to the customs of the mortal world. I know what she meant. She wanted to grow old together like mortals. This silly woman, how could she do that in the cultivation world?
I knew her purpose of inviting me. She wanted me to help her block some unnecessary troubles, accidents, and those disappointed people who thought they were outstanding … I shouldn't have invited her to attend that event. Since it's my responsibility, of course I won't shirk my duty! "
"And then she found me, a big shield, to come?" Lou Xiaoyi also sighed. He knew that things weren't that simple.
"Senior Martial Sister, this kind of mundane plot also exists in the cultivation world? Isn't it meaningless? Could it really cause bloodshed on a joyous occasion? We're all cultivators with Dao foundations. Can't we have this much tolerance? Are you guys worrying too much? "
Yan Chen smiled bitterly, "Of course, most people won't do that, especially the Swordsman from Xuanyuan. If he did that, he would be punished by the Commandment Hall! But at that time, Xuanyuan wasn't the only sect in the event. There were many other sects, big and small. It was inevitable that there were good and bad people among them … My sister is soft-hearted and not used to rejecting others, so there were some misunderstandings among them. In short, it's very complicated, so complicated that I can't fully explain it! "
If you can't explain it clearly, how dare you come here to be a protector?
Lou Xiaoyi's Senior Martial Sister's low EQ was really outrageous! In this world, emotional changes were the most difficult to define. Lou Xiaoyi's philosophy was to stay out of other people's affairs if possible. But now he was forced to do so, so he was helpless.
Her sister's personality complemented hers. From the perspective of a friend, it was easy to understand. But from the perspective of a man, it was different!
Being tender like water could also be a trap. Not being able to bear to refuse, or having a foot in two boats?
This was Lou Xiaoyi's view. So he liked to get along with his Senior Martial Sister. It was simple and direct. They were friends. Occasionally, they could say a few flirtatious words to each other. It was not to the extent that they would misunderstand each other.
They could get along well with each other. By the same principle, he and Hanyan were straightforward. Life was short, and they should enjoy it while they could. How could they have the time to talk about love and be picky?
This was fate. If they didn't understand it, they would never understand it. In fact, this was their attitude towards cultivation. If they wanted something, they would boldly pursue it!
So, although he had never met his Senior Martial Sister's best friend, he was disgusted by her from a few words. She was not as good as the scheming Qin Errong or the narcissistic Gong Xiaodie!
At least, they were eccentric and had a purpose!
Yan Chang comforted him. After all, one of her purposes was to let him come out to relax! The Surging Waves Pavilion was in the Western Regions, within Xuanyuan's sphere of influence. It was not too far away. With this guy's current strength, no one could do anything to him. A trip that could be easy, but could also be difficult. How difficult could it be?
"Don't worry. My sister is getting married. There are many people who feel uncomfortable in their hearts, but there are very few who will really put their discomfort into action. Among these few people, there are only a few who will embarrass the groom at the scene. There is also a very small possibility that they will really make a move. So, in fact, you eating and drinking until the end is the most likely situation."
"I hope so!" Lou Xiaoyi did not think so, but he could not say where this feeling came from.
The two stumbled along the way, chatting and laughing. After a month, they arrived at a large city, Immortal Gazing City. This was the territory of the Spirit Gourd Cave, close to the sphere of influence of the Surging Waves Pavilion. These two sects were relatively peaceful forces among the Fifth Ring Law Lineage. It could not be said that they stood aloof from worldly affairs, but their methods were much gentler.
The wedding scene was not in the city, but in a large luxurious manor outside the city. It seemed that the husband's family was also a large family in the mortal world. They attached great importance to the marriage of cultivators in their family. Perhaps it was also a show for the surrounding forces. This was a method of survival for mortal families.
The fragrance of wine also needed to be advertised.
