Chapter 403: Wedding Night
The auspicious hour has arrived, and the red candles are lit high.
Li Ping, Huang Rong, Su Ying, and Yao Yue, the three brides, stood side by side, dressed in identical attire, without any distinction in rank.
The officiant at the wedding was Lang Fanyun.
Li Ping spent a long time just looking for a wedding officiant.
Logically speaking, Zhang Sanfeng would be very suitable to officiate Li Ping's wedding, but unfortunately, he is Huang Rong's junior, which is really inappropriate.
After much deliberation, Li Ping finally came up with Lang Fanyun.
Looking at this scene, Lang Fanyun recalled the time when he married Ji Xixi, and his feelings of nostalgia grew stronger. Then he noticed Li Ping's nervousness and couldn't help but laugh.
Well, kid, I thought you were fearless, but it turns out you can be so flustered?
Marrying three stunning beauties at once is quite a bargain for you, but tonight, in the bridal chamber, I'd like to see how you plan to arrange things...
Thinking about the entertainment to come, Lang Fanyun's lips curled up: "What one loves is what one desires."
"Li Ping, you and the three beauties are united in heart and mind, and from now on you will walk together through thick and thin."
He paused briefly, then formally began the ceremony: "First bow to Heaven and Earth..."
The four of them bowed down together.
"Bowing to the parents twice..."
The four of them bowed deeply to Huang Yaoshi, for he was their only elder.
After the ceremony, the four people offered Huang Yaoshi a cup of tea in turn.
Huang Yaoshi was momentarily dazed.
Rong'er has truly become someone else's wife. Aheng, can you see that?
At this thought, I felt an emptiness in my heart, and I wanted to follow my deceased wife into the afterlife...
Li Ping also thought of his parents.
What would their expressions be if they saw that he had married three wives in one go?
He must be overjoyed...
If they knew they were marrying Huang Rong, Su Ying, or Yao Yue, their expressions would be even more interesting!
But, but...
What is my world like now?!
Lang Fanyun continued chanting: "Husband and wife bow to each other..."
Li Ping clasped his hands together and bowed deeply to his three wives.
He could clearly sense that not only he was nervous, but the three ladies were too.
Especially Yaoyue, who was so nervous that she was at a loss and stiff as a board.
Is the dignified Palace Master of Yihua Palace really this cowardly?
In the past, Yaoyue was independent and never cared about other people's opinions, but now her mind was in complete turmoil.
Li Ping is now a renowned hero, the number one in the world, while my reputation is so bad, will it drag him down?
She already knew her original fate, and she plotted to sow discord between Hua Wuque and Xiaoyuer, but ultimately suffered a crushing defeat, drove Lianxing to her death, and herself went mad...
He's seen as a clown by later generations!
Am I really worthy of Li Ping?
But at that moment, a voice entered her heart directly: "Don't be nervous, Yue'er."
This was none other than Li Ping. Even Lang Fanyun and Zhang Sanfeng, who were at the same level, could not do this.
He had already cultivated to the ultimate Yang realm, and after absorbing Pang Ban's cultivation, his spiritual power reached an incredible level. Combined with his life-saving ability, he was able to use this almost supernatural telepathic communication.
Li Ping usually called Yaoyue "Sister Yaoyue," but this was the first time he had called her Yue'er so affectionately.
He really treats me like his wife!
Sensing Li Ping's feelings, Yaoyue became even more nervous and shy.
Lianxing, Hua Wuque, and even Xiaoyuer saw this scene clearly.
Little Fish couldn't help but mutter, "I really can't connect the Yaoyue in front of me with the crazy woman she used to be. She's getting married, and she's actually panicking like this?"
Hua Wuque was also extremely surprised: "It's really hard to imagine that my aunt would do such a thing. How did Master Li manage to do it...?"
Then, Lang Fanyun's voice rang out again: "The ceremony is complete. Send them to the bridal chamber."
Upon hearing this, Kou Zhong's eyes lit up instantly: "Ziling, we've finally reached this point!"
"Whose place do you think the sect leader will visit first today?"
"He says he doesn't distinguish between superiors and inferiors, but there's always a hierarchy, isn't there?"
"How about we make a bet and see who he goes to first..."
The next moment, Kou Zhong's eyes were fixed, and he fell straight into Xu Ziling's arms.
Xu Ziling was startled: "Serves you right for being so foul-mouthed! You know perfectly well how powerful the sect leader is now..."
Book lovers are all in the discussion area, chatting about the charm of Xianxia novels.
The sect leader is becoming increasingly unfathomable. He can subdue a master like Zhong Shao without making a sound, which is truly terrifying.
At this moment, Zhao Shirong suddenly felt Li Chenzhou grasp her hand.
A warmth spread through her heart. How long had it been since her older brother had held her hand like this?
Seeing this scene, I imagine the older brother must have felt something too!
Back then, she and Li Chenzhou were both chivalrous heroes who disregarded etiquette and had never had such a formal wedding, nor did they feel there was anything wrong with it.
Only now do I realize that some rituals do have meaning.
On the other side, Linghu Chong looked at Yue Lingshan and softly called out, "Junior Sister..."
Yue Lingshan pouted, "I'm fine. I'm just happy for the sect leader and for the three ladies..."
Seeing that his junior sister was alright, Linghu Chong breathed a sigh of relief.
In the distance, Duan Yu's eyes reddened with envy...
……
Huang Rong entered the bridal chamber and immediately ripped off her veil.
Li Ping held a traditional and grand wedding. Even someone as unconventional as her could feel the importance placed on her, and she was very happy!
But the wedding also made her feel somewhat constrained; Li Ping should be outside drinking and thanking the guests right now…
What a waste of time.
Just then, the door opened slightly, and Li Ping walked in.
Respecting tradition is one thing, but on the wedding night, why leave your wife to entertain guests instead?
Which idiot made this rule?
Huang Rong was overjoyed. Li Ping took her hand and said with a smile, "Get ready, I'll take you to a nice place."
Huang Rong blinked: "But today is..."
On our wedding night, are you going to lead us away?
Where do you want to take us?
Li Ping pushed open the door to Su Ying and Yao Yue's bridal chamber. The two were extremely surprised when they heard what Li Ping said, but they were also filled with anticipation.
Afterwards, Li Ping and the three of them quietly changed their clothes and sneaked out of the Search God Palace.
Before long, they arrived at a hilltop.
The place was already fully furnished. There was a new house, with red ribbons and lanterns hanging everywhere, the character for "happiness" prominently displayed, and even pots, pans, and utensils were all provided.
Li Ping let out a long sigh of relief: "There are too many people at the Search for Gods Palace, and those bastards have incredibly sharp ears. They're all up to no good, so I set up a bridal chamber here!"
"Eat first. You've been busy all day and haven't even had a bite to eat. This ridiculous etiquette is just torture for the groom."
"My ladies, let me cook for you tonight."
"I haven't cooked for you guys in a long time. If I cook every day, I get tired of it, but after a while, I really want to cook..."
Huang Rong smiled and said, "Then I'll help you."
Su Ying said softly, "I'll help pick the vegetables."
Yaoyue paused for a moment: "Now, my swordsmanship is also quite good..."
Li Ping began arranging the ingredients, then looked at Huang Rong and said, "Do you remember the first time we met?"
Huang Rong helped out and discovered that all the ingredients were top-quality. Li Ping must have secretly gone to great lengths to find these things.
Upon hearing this, she laughed: "How could I forget?"
Li Ping laughed and said, "At the time, I thought you were a deity who had descended from heaven, and I wanted to learn immortal arts from you."
Huang Rong suppressed a laugh: "Yeah, right. You even asked me if I was a monster... Humph, you have no taste. Are there any monsters this good-looking in this world?"
The group chatted about the past, cooked dinner together, and happily sat down to eat.
After finishing tidying up, Li Ping looked at the three of them, his eyes welling up with tears: "I built a hot spring in the bridal chamber..."
But at that moment, a distorted band of light appeared in mid-air...
The entrance to the fragments of time slowly opens.
Huang Rong was taken aback: "This? Could it be that Chu Liuxiang told you that fragments of time would appear here, which is why you brought us here?"
Li Ping looked troubled: "Xiang Shuai said he would appear here, but he didn't say it would be so soon!"
"I was originally planning to consummate our marriage first, and then have our honeymoon!"
"In my hometown, there is a saying about honeymoon after marriage, which means that the newlyweds leave everything behind and go on a trip."
"I think Time Fragments is the perfect place for a honeymoon."
"What could be farther or more wondrous than fragments of time...?"
"Who would have thought it would appear so quickly?"
But at that moment, the entrance to the time fragment suddenly expanded, swallowing Li Ping and his three companions, along with their bridal chamber...
