NOVEL NEXT Chapter 657: The Bride and Groom Enter the Bridal Chamber (Please Follow)
After watching the bride and groom exchange wedding tokens, Xiao Ye curled his lips,
"How about a kiss?"
Huangfu Xiangling and the Ancestral Empress glanced at each other, secretly discussing,
"Empress, you go first."
"No, Xiangling, you go first."
Xiao Ye looked at the two gorgeous brides, who were taking their sweet time, stepped forward, hugged their little heads, and kissed them both at once.
"Mmm!"
It was just a quick peck, and then he pulled away.
Both women's cheeks flushed crimson, casting him a shy glare.
*In front of everyone, he really didn't take things seriously.*
*He actually kissed both of them at the same time!*
The officiant's expression turned solemn,
"Next, it's time for the vows."
"May I ask, Bride Huangfu Xiangling, regardless of whether the groom Xiao Ye is rich or poor now or in the future, are you willing to follow him, cultivate together, grow together, and fight together?"
Huangfu Xiangling looked determined, "I am willing!"
The officiant continued, "May I ask, Bride Ancestral Empress, regardless of whether the groom Xiao Ye is rich or poor now or in the future, are you willing to follow him, cultivate together, grow together, and fight together?"
The Empress Huangfu said, "I am willing!"
They raised their hands and swore,
"No matter what happens in the future, we are both willing to follow Xiao Ye, cultivate together, grow together, and fight together!"
In the guests' seats, some women looked full of envy.
To marry a Great Emperor, their future path would no doubt be bright, rising high.
They would stand at the top of the Blue Star pyramid, watching its tides of fortune change.
The world order was also about to change.
No, *it had already changed.*
The men among the guests looked at Xiao Ye with envy.
Two stunning Great Emperors marrying him at the same time, he must have saved the Milky Way in his past life!
Both brides were not only drop-dead gorgeous and astonishingly talented, but also Great Emperors themselves, willing to humble themselves for one man—even if this man was also a Great Emperor.
The officiant said,
"Groom Xiao Ye, may I ask, in the future, regardless of whether Bride Huangfu Xiangling or Bride Ancestral Empress are beautiful or plain, are you willing to fight, grow, and cultivate alongside them?"
Xiao Ye looked calmly at the two women, whose eyes were full of longing.
He said softly,
"I am willing."
"I, Xiao Ye, swear, no matter how your appearances may change in the future, no matter your realms, no matter what may happen, I will accompany you both to cultivate, to fight, to grow together!"
Hearing his reply, Huangfu Xiangling and the Ancestral Empress felt incredibly joyful, smiling until their eyes curved like crescents.
*Both women liked Xiao Ye, not for his future or his background, but simply from being moved, just wanting to be with him.*
*Maybe the Ancestral Empress had reasons at first for marrying Xiao Ye, but now that she was in love, nothing about cosmic trends or backgrounds mattered more than Xiao Ye himself.*
*At this moment, both women only felt completely enveloped in happiness, full of comfort and sweetness.*
*Xiao Ye did crave their graceful figures, but from now on, he felt an extra sense of responsibility in his heart.*
Huangfu Xiangling and the Ancestral Empress had officially become his wives, his own family.
He couldn't just think about physical intimacy anymore; he would take care of both women's bodies and hearts, give them cultivation resources, and accompany them.
The officiant kept things moving, with a smile appearing on his face, saying,
"The bride and groom have now formed their bond, so we'll proceed directly to the tea ceremony."
"Will the bride and groom please serve tea to the elders."
Xiao Ye, the Ancestral Empress, and Huangfu Xiangling nodded.
The three of them walked slowly to the seats behind the high platform, beginning with the Old Headmaster.
Taking a cup of tea from the tray brought by the attendant, Xiao Ye knelt down, holding the tea with both hands, and said gratefully,
"Grandpa, your grandson has been good and married many wives."
"Thank you so much for raising me through all the hard times. Today, I bring my two wives to serve you tea."
Seeing him kneel down, Huangfu Xiangling and the Ancestral Empress also knelt with tea in their hands, speaking sweetly,
"Grandpa, please have some tea."
"Grandpa, the tea's just the right temperature. Don't know if you'll like it, but please enjoy it."
The Old Headmaster grinned, showing two missing front teeth in his smile.
He chuckled and muttered under his breath.
*Getting this kid to actually call me Grandpa, that's no easy feat.*
*If he ever got his memory back, he might beat me up.*
*A buddy becomes a grandpa, haha!*
But for now, he was indeed Xiao Ye's grandpa, an elder.
The Old Headmaster helped Xiao Ye, Huangfu Xiangling, and the Ancestral Empress to their feet, then tasted each cup in turn, smiling,
"Grandson, you did great, you didn't let Grandpa down."
"Granddaughters-in-law, you're wonderful too. Grandpa admires you both."
"The tea tastes excellent; Grandpa really likes it."
Xiao Ye, Huangfu Xiangling, and the Ancestral Empress nodded, took the new teas from the attendant, and stood before Ziran.
They offered tea.
Ziran drank the tea brought by Huangfu Xiangling and smiled,
"Xiao Ye, Empress, I'll skip your tea."
"Xiangling, it's your big day, are you happy?"
Huangfu Xiangling was overjoyed, quite delighted, "Happy, of course I'm happy!"
"Master, we're sisters now!"
Ziran's face froze, "Hmph, we're not just sisters, we're master and disciple too."
"If you make a mistake, I'll still spank your butt."
Huangfu Xiangling hid behind Xiao Ye, stuck out her tongue, "Xiao Ye will protect me. Be careful, or I'll have Xiao Ye keep you stuck in bed as punishment."
Ziran's beautiful eyes lit up, "Is that so?"
"If that's the punishment, make sure it's thorough!"
"Ahem ahem!" Xiao Ye said helplessly, "Alright, time to serve Bingxi tea."
"She's your big sister, don't keep her waiting."
"Ah!" Huangfu Xiangling gasped, a trace of fear on her little face. She quickly pulled the Ancestral Empress to Cheng Bingxi and said,
"Sister Bingxi, your little sister is here to serve you tea!"
"Sister Bingxi, please enjoy some tea."
They took the freshly poured tea from the attendant and offered it.
Cheng Bingxi smiled gently and nodded, "We're all sisters, no need to be too formal. As long as it's not something major, a little mischief adds some fun to life."
"You're both wonderful."
Huangfu Xiangling and the Ancestral Empress smiled, "Thank you, Sister Bingxi."
"Thank you, Sister Bingxi!"
The officiant spoke up promptly, "Everyone, please stand and escort the bride and groom to the wedding chamber!"
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Everyone in the guests' seats stood up instantly, eyes full of respect.
Xiao Ye sent a secret voice, "Old man, I'll find you about something tomorrow. Don't run off."
The Old Headmaster smiled and sent back,
"Don't worry, whatever you need to know, you'll find out—no rush."
"Taking in more Beast Girls is the right move; I'm thinking for your benefit. It'd be best if you collected every attribute."
Xiao Ye nodded, taking both brides by the hand and slowly walking out of the wedding venue.
The wedding chamber was a small villa.
The second floor was Huangfu Xiangling's bridal suite, and the third floor was the Ancestral Empress's room.
They rushed upstairs without pausing, went to their own bedrooms, slipped into the bathroom, washed up, changed back into their wedding dresses, sat down on their beds with red veils covering their heads, and quietly waited for Xiao Ye to arrive.
Xiao Ye found himself in a dilemma.
*He was only one man; he could only go to one bride at a time, so what about the other one?*
After thinking it over, he went to the second floor, Huangfu Xiangling's bridal room, and lifted her red veil.
*The Ancestral Empress was born a Divine Spirit and had survived for five hundred thousand years—she should be able to handle a little loneliness. She could wait a few hours.*
