It was said that many hands made light work. That was when the trio of Sui Xiong, Galstoby and Snowflake met for a brief exchange of words and were delayed for a short moment, the group of attendants had helped Leon to redo his makeup. There was not a single strand of hair astray, and his clothes were neat and tidy. He was back to being the handsome man he was.
However, his handsome image was different from that of Javier’s clone. Leon sported a strong and valiant look. He was full of masculinity. The kind of vibe given by young, handsome and naïve men could not be found on him. On the contrary, he gave a feeling somewhat like that of a younger Brother Chow Yun Fat in old movies.
“Wearing this woolen coat, putting on polite manners and then holding onto an umbrella. This is just like a live version of Xu Wen Qiang walking out from The Bund,” Sui Xiong said. He watched Leon meet his bride; then the couple completed the various wedding formalities under the guidance of the elders from the Riley family. He could not help laughing as he mumbled to himself, “But Kalisa is more beautiful than that unaging old granny, and she is truly unaging. Oh, Leon’s almost an unaging one too, so there’s no problem for their love to be everlasting. But I’m afraid that wanting to live blissfully together till they are old and grey will be a little difficult…”
Just as the bride and groom were preparing for the most important ceremony of the wedding, the exchange of wedding vows, a holy light fell from the sky. The clone of the Goddess of Family arrived on that holy light. Right after it, there was light from blazing flames. The clone of the Goddess of Love walked out from within the light of burning flames.
These two goddesses did not share a good relationship. This was something almost everyone knew. At this moment, these two goddesses actually appeared at the same time and seemed to have no intention of fighting each other. This sudden occurrence stunned all the experienced and knowledgeable people present, rendering them speechless.
In order to convince the Goddess of Love, Sui Xiong had blocked the doors of Flame of Passion for several months. This matter was carried out clandestinely, so only a handful of gods knew. The Goddess of Joy was someone who did her work with rigor. She had long issued a gag order and even made all the gods in her Sorrow-Proof God System take an oath of secrecy. Though there was no punishment for leaking the secret, so long as there was a leak, she would learn of it right away—then what she would do, naturally went without saying.
Most of the members of the Sorrow-Proof God System were gods of flowers or gods of verdure with weak Divine Power. Although they were usually vivacious gods, in the face of major events, they were still very submissive. Up till now, no one had let the cat out of the bag. So this matter was almost completely kept under wraps, and many gods did not even know about it.
This made the event where the two goddesses, who were not on good terms with each other, actually appearing at the same time to bless Leon and Kalisa all the more shocking. It did not take long for news to spread. Even the gods in the Pantheon temple could not help but discuss it.
“Simply incredible! What’s going on?”
“Who knows? Could it be that Our Majesty, the Void Mask’s face is big enough?”
“Though his entire being is considered as just a face, ultimately, a big face and giving face are two different things.”
“Hey, who knows, maybe that big face is why he is given face.”
“Then my face is quite big too. Why don’t people usually give me face?”
“I’m thinking that… it’s still not big enough…”
“Go ahead and say that all you want!”
After all, they could not possibly know about Sui Xiong blocking the door. Despite all the rhetoric, the things they said ultimately constituted an insignificant dialogue void of substance.
After the two important goddesses had given their blessings, the other gods of various areas also took turns to give their blessings. Holy lights fell successively. All in all, there were easily 30 to 50 gods who had come. The Void God System, the Desolation God System, the War God System, the Ocean God System, and naturally, many other different gods, like the God of Justice, as well as the Goddess of Wealth turned up. There were also many gods who had acquaintances with Sui Xiong, like the God of Redemption. Fortunately, the gods were just here to give their blessings and left thereafter. Otherwise, the entire yard would be filled with dozens of gods. That would be a rather terrifying sight to behold.
