"That is the Ancient Emperor Child."
Beneath his face mask, Jun Xiaoyao's gaze also appraised the Ancient Emperor Child.
It had to be said, to be chosen by the Immortal Realm's will as one of the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors, this Ancient Emperor Child was indeed extraordinary.
He possessed the Fuxi Sacred Body, and his Qi was unfathomable.
Around him, Bagua runes flickered in and out of existence, signifying that the Ancient Emperor Child could easily control these eight ultimate powers.
The Ancient Emperor Child was indeed one of the few Prodigies Jun Xiaoyao had encountered on the Ultimate Ancient Road who could make him take a second look.
But…
That was all.
Not to mention Jun Xiaoyao's true self, even his Dharma Body, which possessed only one-tenth of his power, remained composed when facing the Ancient Emperor Child's appearance.
With the entry of the Ancient Emperor Child and Tiannv Yuan, the atmosphere of the entire wedding banquet instantly reached its climax.
However, many discerning individuals noticed that Tiannv Yuan's expression and state seemed off.
There wasn't even a trace of a smile on her delicate, pretty face.
"Ancient Emperor Child, wait," Tiannv Yuan suddenly spoke, her voice like pearls falling onto a jade plate.
"What is it?" the Ancient Emperor Child's expression was indifferent.
If he hadn't been unable to obtain Ling Yuan, how could he have chosen such a substitute?
However, this was also the decision of the Fuxi Immortal Lineage and the Wa Emperor Immortal Lineage.
Following this marriage alliance, the two great Immortal Lineages would join forces to re-establish the Immortal Court.
"I wish to perform one more dance," Tiannv Yuan said softly.
The Ancient Emperor Child frowned slightly; he also couldn't quite understand what this young woman was thinking.
Nevertheless, in the end, he agreed.
Tiannv Yuan danced once more in the Void Realm.
Various Dao runes shimmered brightly, and a rain of flowers descended, making Tiannv Yuan appear as if an immortal consort had descended to the mortal world.
From afar, she was as radiant as the sun rising with the morning glow; upon closer inspection, she was as brilliant as a lotus emerging from green waves.
The Luoshen Astonishing Dance, a single dance in the human world!
Everyone present was captivated.
Both men and women were immersed in this exquisite dance.
Some of the more perceptive female Cultivators could vaguely sense the hidden sorrow and melancholy within this dance.
It was like a young woman secluded in her chambers, yearning for her lover to come, weeping and lamenting.
However, on this joyous day of marriage, the emotions expressed in Tiannv Yuan's dance caused deep reflection.
Looking at the dense crowd of people who had come to attend the wedding banquet below the stage, only his figure was absent.
Tiannv Yuan's tender red lips curved into a self-mocking smile.
Indeed.
To him, was she ultimately just a passerby with not much connection?
But even so, Tiannv Yuan had not the slightest regret.
For her, the time she spent with Jun Xiaoyao was the most relaxed and pleasant period since she had gained consciousness.
"I only wish to dance for Young Master Jun, with flowing sleeves…" Tiannv Yuan murmured, closing her beautiful eyes.
A crystalline tear slid down the corner of her eye, sparkling like a diamond.
And all the Prodigies and Cultivators who heard these words subtly changed their expressions.
Only wish to dance for Young Master Jun, with flowing sleeves…
Did this "Young Master Jun" refer to the Ancient Emperor Child, or to that other person?
Below the stage, Jun Xiaoyao calmly watched the scene unfolding before him.
He looked at the exquisite young woman dancing like a fairy in the sky.
The last time they parted, this young woman had also danced like this beneath the starry sky.
That dance was only for him.
Jun Xiaoyao was silent, a faint light flickering in his eyes, which were as deep as the starry sky.
In the Void Realm, the dance concluded.
Many people were still immersed in it, as if the lingering melody resonated for three days.
The Ancient Emperor Child's expression was indifferent; he had no leisure to appreciate Tiannv Yuan's dance.
Although it was indeed beautiful.
"Alright, Tiannv Yuan, let's continue with the wedding ceremony," the Ancient Emperor Child said, reaching out to embrace Tiannv Yuan's waist.
Although Ling Yuan had already decided to betroth Tiannv Yuan to the Ancient Emperor Child, he had not yet touched a single one of Tiannv Yuan's fingers.
Tiannv Yuan's delicate, pretty face was pale, like a withered flower.
And just then, the world seemed to fall silent.
A soft sigh, like a feather, drifted down.
But it resonated in everyone's ears.
Everyone's gaze, almost instantaneously, turned towards the source of the sound.
They saw that figure, clad in full armor, silent as an iron tower.
"Chi Lie?"
From all directions, countless people were surprised, astonished, and puzzled.
What was this successor of the Chi You Immortal Lineage trying to do at this moment?
"Hmm?"
Wei Qianqian, Cang Li, Yao Qing, Ru Ying, and others also sharply turned their gazes in that direction.
"Chi Lie, what is the meaning of this?"
Above the sky, the Ancient Emperor Child's expression did not change in the slightest.
He had long anticipated that Chi Lie's attendance at his wedding banquet was probably like a weasel paying respects to a chicken—with ill intentions.
After all, the relationship between the Fuxi Immortal Lineage and the Chi You Immortal Lineage was certainly not good.
This Chi Lie had also had several conflicts with him before.
Of course, each time he had suppressed him.
However, this time, he vaguely felt that something was off with Chi Lie.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, that figure slowly raised his hand.
In his hand, he held a jade pendant.
The moment Tiannv Yuan saw this jade pendant, she felt as if struck by lightning; her mind instantly boomed and went blank!
Her delicate body trembled, unable to believe it, and her long, butterfly-like eyelashes also quivered with her surging emotions.
She was all too familiar with this jade pendant.
With a crisp sound.
That figure crushed the jade pendant.
Everyone's eyes showed confusion, somewhat bewildered.
Only Tiannv Yuan covered her red lips with her jade hands, and crystalline tears streamed down, smudging her clear and elegant makeup.
Others did not understand the meaning of this action.
But she knew.
Because, when she had left that figure, she had given him this jade pendant.
And she had said that if he ever missed her, he should crush this jade pendant, and she would come back to him no matter what.
And now…
He had come!
Boom!
The next moment, an incredibly terrifying fluctuation erupted, and the dark armor shattered inch by inch, its fragments scattering in all directions!
Brilliant divine light accompanied by immortal radiance overflowed, and a slender figure, like a banished immortal, appeared shockingly before everyone's eyes!
Clad in white, with a handsome demeanor, like a Heavenly God descending to the mortal world, like a True Immortal arriving.
A terrifying pressure swept forth, causing all directions to bow and the eight wastes to tremble!
"This wedding, Divine Child does not permit."
The indifferent words fell, yet they were like a Heavenly God's judgment.
Everyone was still reeling, plunged into unparalleled shock and stupor!
"Young Master Jun!"
Tiannv Yuan's tears streamed out.
She moved her lotus feet and flew towards Jun Xiaoyao.
At this moment, she didn't care about anything else.
As long as he had come, that was enough!
Tiannv Yuan, like a swallow returning to its nest, threw herself into Jun Xiaoyao's embrace, filling his arms with fragrance.
Looking at the young woman sobbing in his arms, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes revealed a hint of complexity.
He did not embrace Tiannv Yuan, but merely patted her fragrant shoulder, saying softly.
"I'll take you away."
There were no sweet words, no promises of eternity.
Only a simple sentence.
I'll take you away…
