A Thousand-Year Journey Through the God of War

Before they knew it, it was the day of Tiannu and Xiaolian's wedding. The entire Liu Bei mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, and people came and went in an endless stream.

Xiao Lian's stunning beauty, accentuated by her phoenix coronet and embroidered robes, made her appear as ethereal and otherworldly as a fairy descended to earth. Just as everyone had predicted, she became the most beautiful bride in the entire Xinye City.

At this moment, she was sitting by the dressing table, surrounded by six beauties: Xiang'er, Murong Xue, Ye'er, Na'er, Heimei, and Feng Xueyi.

Dressed in phoenix-flecked glass gowns, they formed a stunningly beautiful bridesmaid group, waiting with Xiao Lian for Tian Nu's arrival.

Ma Yunlu originally intended to be Xiaolian's bridesmaid, but when she learned that Zhao Yun was leading a light cavalry force to clear the way for Tiannu, she immediately put on her dark green armor and followed Zhao Yun. Indeed, the power of love is great.

Outside the War God's Palace, Tian Nu rode a finely decorated steed, wearing the Spring Peach official robes tailored for him by Feng Xuexuan. With thick eyebrows and big eyes, he exuded a heroic aura. This time, he finally shaved off his once-beloved beard after being persuaded by his brothers.

After Zhao Yun and Ma Yunlu led the light cavalry to clear the way, a soft suona sounded, a group of lions danced, and Tiannu rode off on horseback.

Behind him followed the twin brothers Yue Luo and Yue Sha, one on each side of Tian Nu on horseback, each holding a red ball and one end of a large red ribbon.

Next, the float, pulled by eight horses and accompanied by Po Jun, Tan Lang, Qi Sha, and Chen Ping, slowly started moving, with the four riders positioned at either end of the float.

Next came the War God Temple's exclusive sedan chair, carried by eight porters and escorted by the four guardians: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, proceeding smoothly.

Following them were a group of elite soldiers who were prepared to help carry the bride's dowry. The group marched in a grand procession straight to Liu Bei's governor's mansion.

At the very back were the four great war gods: Invincible, Peerless, Shangguan Yunlong, and Little Star. The four of them rode side by side on horseback, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.

In the procession, apart from the groom Tian Nu, everyone from the War God Temple wore the brocade robes of mountains and rivers that Feng Xuexuan had tailored for them.

The wedding procession moved slowly along, singing and dancing, and the people of Xinye City crowded the roadside to watch, making for a very lively scene.

The Temple of War Gods, serving as the guardian deity of Xinye, Fancheng, and Wancheng, made outstanding contributions in protecting the people from demons and war.

Now that the Temple of War Gods has such a great occasion, how could everyone not come to celebrate? It's just a pity that the Temple of War Gods' residence is still too small to accommodate too many people.

So everyone could only crowd along the roadside, following the wedding procession to pick up the bride. For a time, the whole city was filled with joy and celebration.

Upon arriving at the prefect's residence, due to the large number of people, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had to personally lead their soldiers to keep all the onlookers outside the residence.

Only then could the wedding ceremony officially begin. Tian Nu took the large red silk from Yue Luo and Yue Sha and stood outside the door waiting for Xiao Lian and the bridesmaids to come out.

But then the door opened wide, and Xiao Lian, dressed in a phoenix coronet and wedding gown, walked slowly from the inner room to the red carpet at the door, surrounded by her bridesmaids Xiang'er, Murong Xue, Ye'er, Na'er, Heimei, Feng Xuexin, and others.

Then, the God of War and the Wolf walked from the courtyard to the door of the house, both wearing the brocade robes of mountains and rivers that Feng Xuexin had tailored for them.

After exchanging a glance, Canglang took on the role of the elder brother, slowly carrying Xiaolian on his back. Under the protection of the God of War, they walked from one end of the red carpet to the other end where Tiannu was located.

Tiannu was extremely excited. He watched as Xiaolian, with a red veil covering her face and wearing a phoenix coronet and wedding robes, was carried by Canglang and slowly walked towards him along the red carpet. His heart pounded like a tidal wave.

Inside the house, six beauties—Xiang'er, Murong Xue, Ye'er, Na'er, Heimei, and Feng Xuexuan—dressed in phoenix-flecked glass dresses and walked on a red carpet, following behind Canglang and Xiaolian. For a moment, the civil and military officials who came to the prefect's mansion to watch the wedding ceremony were treated to a feast for the eyes and were amazed by their beauty.

The God of War escorted Canglang and Xiaolian to Tiannu's side, took one end of the red silk and handed it to Xiaolian. Then, under the watchful eyes of Canglang and the God of War, Xiaolian, led by Tiannu who held the other end of the red silk, followed by a group of six beautiful bridesmaids, walked gracefully on the red carpet to the float of the Temple of War.

Under the protection of Po Jun, Tan Lang, Qi Sha, and Chen Ping, Xiao Lian slowly boarded the flower float. Along with her boarded the float were Xiang Er and six other bridesmaids.

Immediately afterwards, the float pulled by eight horses slowly started moving, along the red carpet on the ground, towards the War God's palanquin guarded by the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise in front of the Prefect's Mansion.

The Prefect's Mansion was filled with crowds and flowers, and the sound of gongs and drums filled the air. Under the excited gaze of the crowd, Xiao Lian and her bridesmaids rode in a flower-decorated car, following behind the grooms, the brothers Tian Nu and Yue Luo Yue Sha. Surrounded by Po Jun, Tan Lang, Qi Sha, Chen Ping, and others, they arrived at the gate of the Prefect's Mansion and transferred to a bridal sedan chair.

After three cannon salutes, the bridal sedan chair, carried by eight strong sedan chair bearers, started smoothly, with the four mythical creatures—Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—standing on either side of the sedan chair as it moved slowly.

In an instant, suonas blared and lions danced, and amidst the cheers and jubilation of the city's residents, the crowd marched in a grand procession toward the Temple of the God of War.

Zhao Yun and Ma Yunlu, fully armed, led a light cavalry team to clear the way. Tian Nu, riding a tall horse, accompanied by Yue Luo and Yue Sha holding red balls and large red silk ribbons, headed to his wedding. Qinglong, Baihu, Zhuque, and Xuanwu followed closely behind, protecting the bridal sedan chair.

Next came the float, surrounded by a crowd led by Po Jun, Tan Lang, Qi Sha, and Chen Ping. On board sat Xiang'er, Murong Xue, Ye'er, Na'er, Hei Mei, and Feng Xuexin, all six of whom were stunningly beautiful, attracting crowds of people from all over the city to watch.

Further on, a group of elite soldiers carried Tiannu's betrothal gifts and Xiaolian's dowry, stretching for more than ten miles, which was quite a spectacular sight.

Finally, there are the four War Gods of the War God Hall: Invincible, Peerless, Shangguan Yunlong, and Xiaoxing. The four of them stand side by side, their aura as magnificent as mountains and rivers.

The group made a simple tour of Xinye City, allowing almost all the city's residents to share in the joy of the War God Temple's celebration. Xinye City was now celebrating the most joyous day of the year, and the War God Temple was also hosting its first wedding within the guild.

After leaving the governor's mansion, Dou Shen, Cang Lang, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei went straight to the War God's Palace. They needed to confirm the details of the wedding with Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and others who had already arrived.

With all the arrangements in place, the light cavalry led by Zhao Yun and Ma Yunlu gradually came into view. The cavalrymen marched to the outside of the War God Temple and lined up on both sides of the gate. Upon seeing this, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang directed the ceremonial artillery team, which had been waiting at the gate, to play music and fire cannons. For a moment, cannons roared and zithers and flutes were played.

Then, accompanied by Yue Luo and Yue Sha, the groom Tian Nu arrived at the entrance of the War God Palace. After gesturing to Guan Ping and Zhou Cang, who were guarding the entrance to greet everyone, he slowly entered the War God Palace with one end of a large red silk ribbon in his hand.

Then came the exciting bride's entrance ceremony, where Xiang'er and six other bridesmaids stepped off the bridal car and walked along the red carpet to Xiaolian's sedan chair.

Heimei and Feng Xuexin lifted the curtain of the bridal sedan chair, and then, supported by the sisters Ye'er and Na'er, Xiaolian slowly stepped down from the sedan chair. Guided by Xiang'er and Murong Xue, she walked along the red carpet to the gate of the War God Palace.

Then, taking the other end of the large red silk from Yue Luo and Yue Sha, and with the help and accompaniment of the bridesmaids, she stepped over the fire plate placed at the entrance of the War God Temple and entered the War God Temple mansion.

Tiannu held one end of the large red silk ribbon in front, followed closely by Yueluo and Yuesha. Xiaolian, holding the other end of the large red silk ribbon, walked along the red carpet, supported and surrounded by the bridesmaids, and began to enter the hall of marriage.
