Chapter 272 Wedding Night, A Battle for the Pearl and Pillar

When Ning Wuque and the two returned to the hall, it was already packed with people, and the guests were all seated. Their seats had been changed.

Sitting at the head of the table was Ning Wuque's grandfather, Zhang Can. To his left sat Ning Fengxiao, and to his right sat Wu Yan. To the left of each of them was a small table with hot water and teacups on it.

Meanwhile, joyful music played softly as Ning Wuque and his companions arrived, a very soothing melody filled with happiness.

This is the last step.

The three stepped forward, whereupon a highly respected sect leader, wearing a red mask and hunched over, quietly awaited their arrival. Only after the three stopped near the steps did she call out loudly:

"This is witnessed by our ancestors for generations to come. In the hall of ceremonies, the husband and wife bow to each other to signify the completion of their marriage!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Wuque turned around and met Ning Tian's eyes. Then the two bowed and clasped their hands together, touching each other's hands once to form a knot.

After exchanging bows with Ning Tian, ​​Ning Wuque turned around and bowed to Wu Feng again, touching his hands together during the process.

Only then did the three of them straighten up and move forward.

"Therefore, the elders jointly instruct that in the hall, tea be served and respects be paid, with nine bows and three kowtows performed to show filial piety!"

The words rose and fell.

The three stepped forward. Wu Feng waited quietly beside Wu Yan, Ning Tian waited quietly beside Ning Fengxiao, while Ning Wuque walked up to Zhang Can, picked up a teacup and hot water to brew tea.

He stepped back, knelt down in front of Zhang Can, and presented him with a teacup.

Across from him, Zhang Can and Ning Wuque sat in chairs, their eyes meeting. Zhang Can's cloudy eyes were filled with bright tears. He reached out and gently took Ning Wuque's teacup, placing it in front of him.

Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Ning Wuque performed three kowtows and nine prostrations, bowing once for every three prostrations, each kowtow being incredibly loud and each prostration incredibly sincere.

Only after performing the three kowtows and nine prostrations did he kneel before Zhang Can, cup his hands, and proclaim:
"Grandpa, please have some tea!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

With a trembling tone, Zhang Can held the teacup in both hands, brought it to his lips, and then tilted his head back slightly to drink it all in one gulp.

Gently, he placed the teacup on the small table beside him, stood up, stretched out his hands, and bent down slightly to help Ning Wuque up.

Only then did he sit down again, looking at his grandson who was standing tall and proud in front of him, and many scenes from his childhood flashed through his eyes.

He was adopted by his family after his parents died, and he taught him to read and write. After the awakening of his martial spirit, he watched the boy's perseverance and hard work in climbing the ladder of success and silently supported his dreams and actions.

Many... many...

In the end, Ning Wuque's appearance changed again and again before settling on the way he appears now.

"Old ant, I... I guess I've done right by saving my life..."

He thought to himself silently, then smiled with satisfaction, nodded, and gestured for Ning Wuque to continue.

On the other side, Ning Wuque waited until Zhang Can nodded before coming over to Ning Tian and Ning Fengxiao, pouring them tea in the same way.

The only difference is that the nine bows and three kowtows were omitted, and instead, three bows were performed after serving the tea.

"Father, please have tea."

"Okay, go ahead."

After finishing his tea, Ning Fengxiao smiled and waved his hand, signaling Ning Wuque to go to Wu Yan's side.

"Father, please have tea."

"I'll leave Wufeng in your care from now on. I'll say it again, please... please bear with me."

"Wuque understands."

Thus, the ceremony is complete!
Holding Ning Tian and Wu Feng's hands, Ning Wuque, following the final words of the venerable elder, walked step by step towards the hall's entrance, then headed towards their home: "This is hereby announced at the mountain gate: on the way, husband and wife, hand in hand, reminisce about the past, to signify—the ceremony is complete!"

.........

"It's over? It feels like it hasn't been that long."

After watching the three gradually disappear from sight, Huo Yuhao exhaled a breath of stale air. He was at a loss for words about this solemn wedding ceremony. Although it was complicated, he felt that every step had meaning.

Beside him, Long Aotian nodded without saying anything, but silently wished Ning Wuque well in his heart.

On the other side, the Shrek Seven Devils were also deeply shocked by the inheritance of this great sect, especially when they saw Ning Wuque bowing and kowtowing on the way to the sacrificial ceremony.

Each altar represents a blessing and legacy of the sect.

"Distinguished guests, please take a short rest. Today is a joyous occasion. To celebrate the succession of our clan's next generation, I, Ning, have prepared a three-day grand banquet, one in the morning and one in the evening. I hope you will all grace us with your presence!"

Soon, Ning Fengxiao stood up to take charge of the overall situation, as there would be a grand banquet three days after the wedding.

However, this is not mandatory. If you don't plan to stay, you can say goodbye and leave first.

However, he had already notified some people in these forces in advance that there were important matters to discuss in three days, so the entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School should be quite lively in these three days.

In addition, most of the people present were from sects that would be participating in the Soul Fighting Tournament later, so they would definitely need to use the arena to spar with each other.

However, none of this has anything to do with Ning Wuque anymore.

After all, he needed to spend these three days with the two brides, so he could only apologize to Long Aotian and the others.

Fight? Fight what? Get out of here, you stinky man!
Although a good night is fleeting, now is not the time.

"Go quickly and come back soon, don't keep my sister and me waiting!"

"Hmm, don't drink too much, or you'll come back smelling bad and I won't let you touch me tonight."

After escorting the two back to their bridal chamber, Ning Wuque still had to go back to entertain the guests. He had to have at least a drink with the titled Douluo as a sign of respect and courtesy before he could return to his bridal chamber with his two beauties for their wedding night.

Ning Wuque nodded in assurance regarding Wu Feng and Ning Tian's words.

He then left in a hurry.

…………

"So fast?"

"You came back after only a few drinks? They didn't even try to stop you?"

"Of course! I'll beat up anyone who dares to keep me here! I can't wait to be with you guys."

The trip took only a few tens of minutes, less than an hour, before Ning Wuque finished his drink, said hello, and ran back.

He had been looking forward to this day for several years! If he didn't have high standards, he would have broken his vow and tried it long ago. How could he have waited until now?

Right now, if anyone dares to keep him here, he'll really dare to drive a stunt truck to block the door and beat him up! If you keep him here for even a minute, he'll block the door and beat him up for a whole day and night!
That imposing aura was so strong that even Long Aotian, who had planned to have a couple of drinks with Ning Wuque, couldn't stop him from using Poison Undying's methods.

"Hmph, tonight I'll make you taste my power. Hurry up and lift the veil."

Wu Feng gave a huff in response, then stuck her head out and asked Ning Wuque to lift her veil.

Beside him, Ning Tian also poked his head out, and even through the cloth, Ning Wuque could feel the expectation and passion in his gentle, watery eyes.

The moon shines on the pagoda, and the bridal chamber is filled with candlelight.

The good night is too short, and people are vying for the pearl and the pillar.
