Chapter 145 Xu Qianying Enters the Door

Shi Chen came back an hour later, carrying some delicious food from the restaurant. When he walked into the cave, he saw Liang Ruyan smiling and greeting him, but no Xu Qianying.

"Fairy Xu is not here? Or hasn't she gotten up yet?" Shi Chen asked deliberately.

"Oh! You're so ungrateful." Liang Ruyan patted Shi Chen's chest and continued, "Your marriage is over. She's agreed. I'll go pick her up and bring her to the mansion on the auspicious day in three days. But do you want to make it a little lively?"

"Really? Haha! My dear wife, that's awesome! I'm going to treat my hero tonight." Shi Chen placed the food box on the stone table in the yard, spun Liang Ruyan around a few times, and then said, "You decide. I don't want to let everyone know. Besides, we don't know many people here, let alone close Taoist friends. You should ask Fairy Xu what she thinks. I'll let my wife make all the arrangements."

"I'll ask Fairy Xu if she needs a banquet to celebrate." Liang Ruyan hugged Shi Chen tightly and said, "We can't practice together these days. Save your experience for when Fairy Xu comes home. You can practice it later. Humph! It's a good thing for you, a big pervert!"

"My husband, I'm full of energy. There's no need to conserve my strength. You don't know how powerful I am." Shi Chenyan said insincerely.

"You, I don't know yet. Just wait. I'm going to break through to the early stage of the Golden Core in the next few days and reach the fourth level of the Golden Core. You better stay quiet for a few days. When Fairy Xu comes home, you can go and cause trouble for her." Liang Ruyan said angrily, "You need to arrange for Fairy Xu's position in the Immortal City. Don't run to the city gate and snatch someone to marry and make a fool of yourself."

"I'll arrange it right away. I'll send a message to Huo Wei to transfer Xu Xianzi's position. Just put her name on the list." Shi Chen said, taking out the communication token.

Three days passed quickly. On the auspicious day, Shi Chen wore a wedding dress and sat in the cave waiting. It was already past noon. Twelve delicacies were placed on the stone table in the courtyard, and there were also spiritual fruits and spiritual wine next to them.

Early in the morning, Shi Chen specially cooked delicious food and decorated the cave with wedding flowers, red silk cloth, red carpet, etc.

From the outside of the cave, one cannot clearly see what is inside. Once one enters the cave and sees the layout, one can tell that it is festive and auspicious.

Originally, Shi Chen wanted to go to pick up the bride in person, but Liang Ruyan said that Fairy Xu was the second wife, and according to the mortal customs of the cultivation world, the groom could not go to pick up the bride, but just had to wait at home.

Liang Ruyan hired sedan chair bearers and flower-scattering boys and went out to pick up the bride at noon. Shi Chen had been waiting for an hour, but Liang Ruyan still hadn't brought the newlyweds. He felt a little anxious and expectant.

After waiting for two hours, Shi Chen finally saw the newlyweds enter the house. There was music and dancing. The hired mortal wedding procession consisted of about thirty people, who came along, followed by a dozen boys. It was a lively and festive scene.

After the bride entered the cave gate, Shi Chen waved his hand and gave each of the hired mortals a Qi-nourishing pill, and took out fifty ordinary spiritual fruits and placed them at the entrance of the cave.

"My immortal master is very happy today. Thank you all for helping to welcome the bride. Here are some spiritual fruits. You can distribute them among yourselves." Shi Chen said happily.

"Thank you, Immortal Master!" About thirty hired mortals bowed in thanks.

"My husband, please take the bride inside to the wedding hall. I'll arrange the outside affairs," Liang Ruyan placed the bride's hand in Shi Chen's and said, "I've already booked a banquet at the restaurant. It will be delivered in half an hour. The lane in front of the cave is spacious enough. We can hold the banquet here. Neighbors and the wedding procession can all be seated. My husband is kind and doesn't accept any gifts. These elixirs are insignificant to us. Spiritual fruits are also ordinary things. I just hope everyone enjoys the food and drinks."

"Thank you, Immortal Master, for the banquet. We wish you eternal life and good fortune!" The leading mortal sedan bearer and about thirty people shouted loudly.

Shi Chen brought Xu Qianying into the cave, took her little hand and walked to the stone table in the yard.

"Fairy Xu, today you and I are happily married. I have no parents or blood relatives in this world, only a wife. Now that you have entered my family, you are my relative, Shi Chen. People who practice cultivation must not abandon worldly etiquette. With the sun and the moon as witnesses, and heaven and earth as alliances, Xu Qianying and I will become Taoist companions, share weal and woe, and never leave each other!" Shi Chen said as he bowed to the sky.

"With the sun and the moon as witnesses, and heaven and earth as our alliance, Shi Chen and I now become Taoist companions, sharing weal and woe and never leaving each other!" Xu Qianying also followed Shi Chen in bowing to the sky and said.

"Come here, my lady, after you lift up the red veil and drink the wedding wine, you will belong to me, Shi Chen, from now on. Ha! Ha!" Shi Chen lifted up Xu Qianying's red veil, picked up the wine glass and said.

Xu Qianying also picked up the wine glass and drank from it with Shi Chen.

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Master Shi's wedding banquet was held without informing me. I hope you won't blame me for coming uninvited."

As soon as the voice came, Huoyan City Lord walked into Shi Chen's cave with a big laugh. His face was flushed and his steps were vigorous.

Huo Wei followed behind him, looking somewhat reluctant. She was holding a few gift boxes and looking at Shi Chen and the others with complicated eyes.

"How could I blame you for honoring me with your presence? It's just that we are getting married today and don't want to have a high-profile banquet. I hope City Lord Huo won't blame me. There are some neighbors and mortals helping to welcome the bride just outside the door." Shi Chen said with a bit of embarrassment on his face as he looked at Huo Yan who came in, and he bowed quickly.

"I also heard that Master Shi Dan got married today, so I hurried over to have a drink and celebrate. Master Shi Dan, please don't be stingy and give me a drink." Huo Yan said with a smile, his eyes scanning back and forth between Shi Chen and Xu Qianying.

"I am so happy that City Lord Huo has arrived that I cannot contain my joy. How could I be stingy with the wedding wine? Come, City Lord, please take a seat. There is plenty of wine to drink. Fairy Huo Wei, please take a seat as well." Shi Chen extended his hand enthusiastically to invite Huo Yan and Huo Wei to join him, his face filled with joy.

"Then I won't be polite." Huo Yan strode up to his seat.

Huo Wei also bowed slightly and sat down next to Huo Yan.

Huo Yan picked up a glass of spirit wine and said, "This glass is for the two of you to have a happy and loving relationship, and to be blessed with good health."

Shi Chen pulled Xu Qianying together to respond to Huo Yan.

Huo Yan only stayed for a quarter of an hour, toasted Shi Chen with three cups of spirit wine, and then took Huo Wei away from Shi Chen's cave on the pretext of being busy.

After Huo Yan left, Liang Ruyan came in from outside. She looked at Shi Chen and the others and said, "I've already made arrangements outside. After the banquet, the restaurant will send waiters to clean up. The city lord came to congratulate us. In less than a quarter of an hour, all the prominent families in the city sent gifts. However, I didn't accept any of them and returned them one by one."

"Just leave it to you. We shouldn't have too much interaction with the forces in the city. Wait a few months, and once the term is up, apply to leave." Shi Chen said casually.

"Yes, my husband, a night of spring is worth a thousand gold, why don't you bring the bride into the cave, hehe!" Liang Ruyan said with a smile.

"This is the bridal chamber. Do you want to spend the bridal chamber with us again?" Shi Chen teased.

"You wish. I'll punish you by not letting you come down for three days. I'm going to go into seclusion for a few days to try to reach the middle stage of the Golden Core." Liang Ruyan said with some jealousy.

"When you advance to the middle stage of the Golden Core, I will reward you well. Today, I will first accomplish something with Fairy Xu. Let's go upstairs." Shi Chen said as he picked up Xu Qianying and walked into the main room with a smile.
