Chapter 655: The Elder Dean Grandfather Attends the Wedding! (Seeking Follow-up Reading)
Time Empress explained, "Human Emperor, Sister Bingxi had been organizing your wedding, marrying Huangfu Xiangling and the Ancestral Empress, saying she wanted to make it grand and glorious, inviting guests from all over the world."
Mu Qingxue and Xiao Ye nodded, so that's how it was.
But Xiao Ye suddenly frowned.
Huangfu Xiangling's background actually used to be very good, coming from the City Lord's Mansion in the Imperial Base City, as the illegitimate daughter of the Imperial Capital City Lord, Huangfu Qingtian.
But her mother had died in childbirth!
Because Huangfu Xiangling was an illegitimate child, she became extremely rejected by everyone in the Huangfu Clan—even Huangfu Qingtian never showed her a kind face.
In the end, they even expelled Huangfu Xiangling from the family!
Huangfu Xiangling's childhood had been utterly miserable, lacking both a mother's and a father's love.
If Ziran hadn't picked her up and taken her in as a disciple, it was likely Huangfu Xiangling wouldn't have survived past the age of ten.
Huangfu Xiangling used to be extremely averse to men, identifying as gay, and *that was closely connected to her childhood experiences.*
Xiao Ye briefly described Huangfu Xiangling's past, and Time Empress and Mu Qingxue's faces were gravely changed.
The two women gritted their teeth and said,
"To give life, but not care, what a disgrace to fatherhood."
"This Huangfu Clan, I think I'll have to pay them a visit, and drag that Huangfu Qingtian over to kneel and apologize before Xiangling!"
Time Empress and Mu Qingxue exchanged a glance and, as if reading each other's minds, said, "Let's go together!"
Mu Qingxue opened a golden light gate, and the two of them walked in, leaving the Space-Time Hall.
Xiao Ye's expression grew solemn, *I really had to give Xiangling a happy wedding; she spent her whole life lacking love, so I'd give her all the love she ever needed.*
"As for the Huangfu Clan, I'd have to see their attitude."
"If their attitude was terrible, there really was no reason for this clan to exist anymore!"
Before leaving the Space-Time Hall, he adjusted the time inside the Space-Time Hall to the time differential at the Sovereign Realm level.
In the Star Domain Realm, the time differential between the Space-Time Hall and Blue Star was 280,000 years to one day.
The time differential he could set at the Sovereign Realm was 2,800,000 years to one day on Blue Star.
After finishing all that, Xiao Ye once again controlled the Space-Time Hall's core, letting the Sovereign Realm Rule Origin absorb and fuse the Rule Origins of the Star Domain Realm and Emperor Realm.
Space type, time type, phantom spirit type, supreme type, life type, destruction type, reincarnation type, auspicious type, curse type, five elements attribute, thunder, ice, and so on and so forth.
The Rule Origin was essentially one entity, but the Space-Time Hall had split it into various levels, making it easier for the beast girls to awaken and absorb the corresponding attribute origins.
After finishing everything, Xiao Ye exited the Space-Time Hall through the golden light gate and arrived in Wilderness Base City.
In the main square of the City Lord's Mansion, all the wedding facilities had been set up.
At this moment, Wilderness Base City had become a gathering place for all the big shots in Dragon Country.
Almost every base city's City Lord had come to the City Lord's Mansion at Wilderness Base City to attend the wedding.
This was all arranged at Cheng Bingxi's instruction. Dragon Country was now protected by the World Tree, which prevented it from being corrupted or infected by the decaying laws of the Desolate Realm.
She had listened to the Ancestral Empress's suggestion and decided to use the wedding to announce Xiao Ye's identity as the Human Emperor, ensuring all base cities in Dragon Country would bow their heads in allegiance.
In the guest hall,
all sorts of top base city City Lords were present—Devil City, Jinling City, Hang City Base City, and so on, as well as the Imperial Base City Young City Lord, Huangfu Dun.
The Ye Family's young master, Red-haired Ye Fan, was also there.
City Lords of top base cities like Qin Platform gathered together, chatting merrily.
Ye Fan was chatting with Huangfu Dun, shoulder to shoulder.
"Brother Huangfu, one of the brides in this wedding is your little sister. How do you feel?"
"Hmph, she's not my little sister. Huangfu Xiangling was thrown out of the family long ago."
"Tsk, then how did you get an invitation?"
"I come if I want, who needs an invitation? Even if Huangfu Xiangling was someone our Huangfu Clan expelled and abandoned, whoever in Wilderness Base City wanted to marry her, they'd have to get our Huangfu Family's permission first."
"Shit, are you here to sabotage the wedding?"
"Sabotaging a wedding is out of the question. That towering ancient tree in Wilderness Base City protected Dragon Country, so I came to check it out—where did this ancient tree come from, why did it appear in Wilderness Base City rather than the capital of Dragon Country!"
Red-haired Ye Fan immediately grew wary, "Brother Huangfu, don't tell me the Huangfu Family is eyeing that ancient tree."
Huangfu Dun gave a cold laugh and didn't answer.
Red-haired Ye Fan's hair stood on end, and he quickly edged away from Huangfu Dun.
*These Huangfu Clan pricks had balls, coveting a massive supreme magic plant like this—did they even know what it means to die?*
For Wilderness Base City to possess such a supreme magic plant, there had to be a great power behind the scenes.
Nangong Qitao and his wife, as well as Cheng Keke and her husband, were cheerfully chatting with City Lords of top base cities like Qin Platform.
Each time addressing each other as "in-laws."
The daughters of the Devil City Lord and the Jinling City Lord, Mu Qingxue and Qin Xi'Er, were both Xiao Ye's beast girls.
Red-haired Ye Fan looked on from behind, but *he felt no jealousy at all.*
He just silently bowed his head and sipped his tea.
He had ten fiancées, and quite a few of them had been taken by Xiao Ye.
Right now, he was still single—he had attended several of Xiao Ye's weddings, and each bride had been a stunning beast girl who had once been betrothed to him, but whom he had never even met before.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the wedding was about to begin, so please follow me into the wedding venue."
Nangong Qitao received the message, stood up, and called out.
The City Lords from all the various base cities rose as one and followed Nangong Qitao into the wedding venue.
At the center stood a crystal-clear high platform, with rows upon rows of seats for the audience in front.
Huangfu Dun, with an arrogant expression, entered with Ye Fan, took a deep breath, and said,
"This high platform, actually gives off a Rule Origin aura."
"These seats are actually made of Dragon Crystal."
"These decorations—they all shimmer with swallowing and spatial rule power."
"What extravagance!"
Ye Fan's eyes widened in shock, and he hurriedly moved farther from Huangfu Dun.
*He was now even more certain of his guess; there was a great power in Wilderness Base City's background.*
Rule power could be mastered at the Saint Realm, Origin Power manipulated a little at the Quasi-Emperor Realm, but for Rule Origin so dense, so profound and high level—rumor had it only Great Emperors could easily condense and forge chair sets like this.
*And yet this idiot Huangfu Dun dared to covet the supreme magic plant protecting Dragon Country—was his brain caught in a door?*
The host, wearing a black suit and holding a microphone, said,
"Distinguished guests, please take your seats, and would the parents please be seated as well."
The City Lords of each base city sat down on chairs made from Emperor Realm Origin Crystals. Instantly, they felt refreshed, their bodies lighter than before.
Cheng Bingxi and Ziran, with more than ten beast girls, sat in the parents' seats behind the platform.
Nangong Qitao and the others took their seats among the guests.
"Once everyone has been seated, will the bride and groom please enter!" the host said with a smile.
"Wait!"
Just then, an old but powerful voice came from the sky.
An old man, hunched over, hair snow-white, his face wrinkled with age, appeared atop the platform.
Cheng Bingxi immediately stood up in surprise, "Headmaster Grandpa, you're here?"
"Please, have a seat!"
The old man was indeed Headmaster Grandpa. He smiled kindly, nodded, and took his seat among the parents behind the platform.
The Fate Divine Spirit was shocked, suddenly a little nervous.
*This man was the condensed embodiment of the will of the great universe, and his spouse's elder!*
Headmaster Grandpa said, "Let the wedding continue."
