Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm

Chapter 27 The Wedding!

Riding on his horse, Chen Qian was full of vigor and high spirits. He had achieved success in physical training and his six senses were sharp.

Although there was a lot of noise and gonging along the way, he also heard the discussions of many people by the roadside.

He didn't care whether it was a joke, a laugh, or a compliment.

These are all life experiences. When his cultivation level is high in the future, he will definitely overwhelm everyone in Phoenix Forest Valley, young and old, making it hard for them to breathe.

At that time, there will only be one voice left: awe.

Now, we'll never hear those words again.

Listen and cherish it.

The wedding procession walked for quite a while before finally arriving at the head of the family's mansion.

Chen Yunyi was already waiting in front of the gate.

Today, she wore a multi-layered, wide-sleeved ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) paired with a brocade shawl, which made her appear even more delicate and beautiful amidst her cool demeanor, making her exceptionally radiant.

She has been living in the valley for more than two months in order to attend her sister's wedding. On weekdays, she mostly stays in the Aobayama Market, where she is responsible for managing the Chen family's businesses.

Under her direction, the two brides, dressed in phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, were quickly welcomed into the bridal sedan chair. The phoenix coronet was adorned with gold thread, dragons, phoenixes, pearls, and jade, while the embroidered robe was a gorgeous embroidered shawl, paired with a bright red long-sleeved robe, making them look extremely auspicious and festive.

The procession returned to Fengming Residence, and the wedding officially began in front of a host of guests and many high-ranking Qi Refining experts from the Chen family.

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

"Couple greetings!"

"It's done!"

The wedding ceremony is not complicated. We pay homage to heaven and earth for nurturing our people, bow to our parents to express our gratitude, and exchange vows to spend the rest of our lives together.

Chen Qian and Feng Momo's parents have both passed away, leaving only the couple and their elderly father, Chen Hongming. At this moment, while he felt gratified, a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes, likely as he thought of his deceased wife.

After escorting the two brides back to their courtyard, Chen Qian returned to Fengming Residence to receive guests.

Under Chen Hongming's guidance, Chen Qian gained a basic understanding of the guests present, including high-ranking members of the Chen family, clan elders, guest elders, and close members of the Qi Refining family.

After all, he left Fenglin Valley in his youth, and most people don't recognize him.

As night deepened, the wedding drew to a close.

After seeing off all the guests, Chen Qian was finally able to return to his own courtyard to prepare for his wedding night.

At the entrance of the courtyard, the two maids who helped Chen Qian with his grooming today stood waiting. From now on, they would stay here to serve the two mistresses and help with household chores.

The one in green is called Qingman, and the one in pink is called Ziyao; both are about eighteen or nineteen years old.

The two women were no less beautiful or elegant than the entertainment stars of their previous life on Earth, but in this world of cultivation, they were merely considered pretty and charming, not outstanding.

"Hello, uncle."

When the two women saw Chen Qian return, they quickly helped him into the courtyard and presented him with towels and a basin of water that had been prepared beforehand, so that he could wash his hands and face.

Chen Qian did drink quite a bit, but he was only slightly tipsy.

He didn't want to deliberately use his internal energy to dispel the effects of the alcohol; given his constitution, it would dissipate naturally very quickly.

Such a beautiful moment, with a slightly tipsy feeling, can actually make people feel more relaxed and happy.

After dismissing the two maids, Chen Qian arrived at the front of the bridal chamber.

A young girl dressed in a light blue dress and with her hair styled in a bun stood at the entrance of the new house.

With her almond-shaped eyes, pure temperament, and beautiful face, she is a natural beauty.

The girl's name was Su Jin, and she was eighteen years old, the same age as Chen Qian.

She was originally the personal maid of the eldest daughter, Chen Yunyi, but Chen Yunyi was independent from a young age and did not like to have a maid with her. She often assigned Su Jin to serve her younger sister, Chen Yunxi.

Over time, Su Jin became Chen Yunxi's personal maid.

The main way for cultivation families to replenish their blood and increase their members is through the reproduction of their own bloodline, but the number of offspring with spiritual roots is limited.

Therefore, it is a common practice to find children with spiritual roots in the secular world and nurture them from a young age.

This world is dangerous. There is never a shortage of orphans whose families have been destroyed and who are forced to wander. Once these orphans are found to have spiritual roots, most of them will be adopted by various cultivation families and raised from childhood.

Those with superior spiritual root aptitude will be cultivated as the core of the family, adopted by powerful high-ranking members of the family, and given better treatment and emotional care.

Those with poor spiritual root aptitude will be given special training in a particular cultivation technique to become professionals.

For example, skills such as cultivating spiritual plants, preparing spiritual cuisine, slaughtering spiritual animals, brewing spiritual wine, and prospecting have low entry barriers and are relatively easy to master. There are also children with lower cultivation aptitude and talent; boys are trained to be followers of important family members, while girls are trained to be maids.

Su Jin was such a girl. Her spiritual root was of low quality and she had no outstanding talent. She was assigned to serve Chen Yunyi from a young age.

After five or six years of cultivation, his cultivation level has only reached the peak of the third level of Qi Refining.

Now that Chen Yunxi is getting married, Chen Yunyi specifically asked her what she thought. Unexpectedly, she was willing to marry Chen Yunxi and become Chen Qian's concubine.

Chen Qian was fairly familiar with the young girl who often followed Chen Yunxi, but they didn't talk much.

"Sujin, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Qian nodded gently to the little girl, pushed open the carved door covered with the character for "happiness," and paused slightly—the sight before him made his heart tremble even after two lifetimes.

The inner room, measuring three zhang square, was covered with golden silk wood flooring, and gilded vine lamps with intertwined branches hung in the four corners. The wicks of these lamps were "everlasting vines" that could burn for three days without going out.

On the east wall hangs a painting titled "One Hundred Children Playing in Spring," while on the west side, a pair of white jade-carved acacia trees are displayed on a table. The branches and leaves are adorned with various spiritual materials tied with red ropes, which is the custom of "spiritual affinity binding" in the cultivation world.

The most eye-catching item was the Xuan Yu bed, which was entirely black but exuded a faint warmth—this was a low-grade spiritual jade called "Warm Yang Jade," which had a remarkable effect on conditioning a woman's constitution.

The bed curtains were not made of ordinary red gauze, but of "Fire Silkworm Brocade," a specialty of the Beast Taming Sect, which was as thin as a cicada's wing yet warm in winter and cool in summer.

At this moment, the curtains were half-drawn, and two graceful figures could be vaguely seen sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Please, son-in-law." Su Jin approached with small steps, carrying a gilded tray.

Before entering, the girl had specially changed into a red vest and had a fresh balsam flower in her hair.

On the tray were three items: a jade ruyi wrapped in red silk, three silver cups engraved with flounders, and a small bronze brazier with a love wine simmering inside.

"The head of the family specifically ordered that half a coin of warming uterus powder be added to the wine."

The maidservant leaned close to Chen Qian's ear and whispered something. After speaking, she blushed, put down her things, and stepped aside.

Chen Qian picked up the jade ruyi and walked to the left. The ruyi gently lifted the red veil.

"MoMo".

"Husband."

Perhaps she had rehearsed it many times in her mind, because Feng Momo no longer called Chen Qian "Brother Qian" but instead called him "Husband," her voice clear and sweet with a touch of gentleness.

She wore peach blossom makeup today, and the moment her veil was lifted, the whole room seemed to brighten up considerably. As the saying goes, "Peach blossoms in the sunlight are especially red."

Chen Qian then moved to the right side, and the jade scepter turned to the second veil, revealing a beautiful face with delicate features and gentle grace.

"Yunxi".

"Husband."

Chen Yunxi's use of the word "husband" was more proper and natural, clearly showing that she has a more gentle and magnanimous personality. Although she changed her form of address, she was not awkward or embarrassed.

Her makeup today was also quite stunning, with light yellow dots on her forehead and the corners of her eyes, paired with cherry lips, making her look lively and elegant.

The imagery of her beautiful face complements Feng Momo's, evoking the sentiment of "If I were the Green Emperor in the future, I would make the peach blossoms bloom together."

"Young master, ladies, it's time for the wedding wine."

Su Jin brought over three cups of wine at just the right moment.

"My ladies," Chen Qian said, raising his silver cup. "Our marriage is ordained by fate, our bond beginning in childhood; the rest of our lives are long, and we will be together long into our old age."

"Come! Drink this cup to the brim!"

"My husband, our marriage is ordained by Heaven, and our destiny is made in Heaven."

"My husband, the rest of our lives are long, let's stay together forever."

The red candle crackled and popped, casting the overlapping shadows of the three people onto the "Hundred Children" painting.

　Xiao Qian has married his two childhood sweethearts! Dear readers, having read this far, you've also participated in this joyous occasion. Life's beautiful moments always come unexpectedly, just like our encounter in the world of books.

　　My description of my world may not be entirely what you all expect, but it can be considered a collision of ideas, and I hope to achieve a resonance of the soul.

　　Chen Qian: "Since you're here, please leave your gift money!"

　　Feng Momo: "Add to favorites! Comment! Recommend!"

　　Chen Yunxi: "You can owe me the monthly pass for now!"

　　Chen Yunyi: "There are also tips? Although I don't really care."
