Chapter 159 - Marriage (1/2)

After December, it was the new year.

Godfiends visited each other as a new year tradition. It was a joyous occasion. In fact, many Godfiends didn’t care about the new year festivities, but the Godfiends stationed at city passes were different. They might die in battle at any time, so they paid special attention to New Year’s Eve. After 800 years, Godfiends at city passes had made it a tradition to visit each other and celebrate the new year together.

“It’s really lively during the new year.” Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue walked along North River Pass’s streets. Many hawkers had set up stalls along the streets, and many people were performing acrobatics. People wore their best clothes as they celebrated.

“North River Pass’s population is slightly lower than Eastcalm Prefecture, but the atmosphere during the new year is more vibrant,” praised Meng Chuan with a smile.

The two walked alongside each other.

“Ah Chuan, we’ve been here for more than a year. When do you plan on getting married?” asked Liu Qiyue softly, her face slightly red.

Meng Chuan was stunned. How could Qiyue take the initiative to ask such matters? Even Meng Chuan felt that he was silly for forgetting!

“Qiyue, didn’t we agree on this?” Meng Chuan immediately held Liu Qiyue’s hand and coaxed her. “After we gain a foothold in North River Pass, we can get married. We have fought two times in North River Pass, and we achieved great victories both times. Especially in the last battle, I killed a few demon monarchs like Demon Monarch Lion. Now, who doesn’t have faith in me? Since we have a stable footing, we can get married immediately.”

“Get married immediately?” Liu Qiyue’s face turned scarlet. She immediately said, “I’m not that anxious.”

“I am. How can I not be anxious?” Meng Chuan shook his head. “We have to write a letter to Dad and the rest immediately. We’ll let Dad and the rest set a specific date. After all, we have to discuss such important matters with Dad and the others.”

Liu Qiyue smiled and nodded. “Alright, let’s discuss it with Dad and the rest.” She was feeling sweet right now.

Finally…

She was finally getting married to Ah Chuan!

…

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue sent a letter to Eastcalm Prefecture. Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai were overjoyed when they received the letter. They had been waiting for this day for a long time. However, it was not appropriate for them to rush the couple since they were defending North River Pass from demons.

Soon, the date was set. It was to happen on 26th January, a particularly joyous day for marriage based on the almanac.

…

26th January.

Meng Chuan was alone on the bed.

“Today is the day of my wedding.” Meng Chuan smiled when he saw no one beside him. This was because Liu Qiyue had moved to another manor last night, where Liu Yebai stayed temporarily.

Meng Chuan had requested a North River Pass Godfiend to bring his family from Eastcalm Prefecture on a giant bird. He and Liu Qiyue were extremely important to North River Pass, so they couldn’t leave as they pleased. It wasn’t a big deal for ordinary Godfiends to leave temporarily. North River Pass was 6,500 kilometers away from Eastcalm Prefecture. It was too far. Many guests couldn’t come by themselves. They had to be escorted via flying mounts.

The North River Pass’s flying mount was a third Firmament demon monarch. After being controlled by Archean Mountain completely, it was very loyal! It was large, and it had a wingspan of over 100 feet. It had a very wide back, allowing Meng Dajian, Liu Yebai, several Meng family members, Liu Yebai’s good friend, and Ge Yu—Mirror Lake Dao Academy’s dean—to ride upon it.

“Chuan’er, hurry up. There’s still a lot of things to do today.” The fat Meng Dajiang was very anxious. He dragged Meng Chuan to a group of women.

Meng Chuan smiled and obediently put on his groom’s gown. The women put some makeup on him, to which he said, “Don’t make it too thick.”

“Don’t worry, Lord Meng. Don’t worry.”

“Lord Meng, your skin is very good. You’re very handsome.”

The women were extremely excited. This was the first time they were involved in a marriage between two Godfiends.
