Eternal Bonds: A Journey with the Fated Immortal

Chapter 21 - Great Emperor Taiyin



Chapter 21: Great Emperor Taiyin, Another Golden Destiny, the Embarrassed Empress

“I don’t need to flatter you. Prepare to mobilize the strongest members of the sect and occupy the Northern Wilderness!” said the Purple Mountain Sage nonchalantly.

“It’s also a great opportunity to expand the Beast Taming Sect’s territory!”

While it wasn’t possible to swallow the entire Northern Wilderness, capturing half of it, along with the Su Family, would be a significant advantage. After all, territory often brought vast resources and population.

Capturing half of the Northern Wilderness and the Su Family would expand the Beast Taming Sect’s influence by a third within just a few thousand years of development.

“Yes!” The Sect Master of the Beast Taming Sect’s eyes lit up excitedly.

“Sage, it’s been a long time since I last killed someone!” The Purple Mountain Sage ignored the Sect Master and rubbed his powerful bow, his eyes gleaming with cold and stern determination.

A hint of cruelty and bloodthirstiness could be seen on his old, rugged face. He couldn’t wait to use the Holy Execution Bow to kill Su Changsheng!

On the other side, the Su Family’s gathering in Tianyuan City was going on.

“Please welcome the bride and groom to the stage!” Su Yun announced as the host, his deep voice echoing through the surroundings.

Naturally, there were no elders from both the groom and bride’s side. The relatives of Gu Qingge, as well as her entire lineage, had been wiped out by the Gu Family Patriarch. As for Su Changsheng, he was now six thousand years old, and apart from a few peers, everyone else had been eroded by time, leaving nothing behind. Hence, many of the expected traditions and formalities were discarded.

Before long, petals filled the air, and countless divine lights illuminated the scene. Immortal auras surrounded the venue, with the appearances of true dragons, phoenixes, and even phantoms of countless immortals and fairies.

There was an ethereal immortal mist, brilliant stars sparkled, and golden lotuses bloomed. The heavens showered flowers, and gods and demons chanted praises. Various incredible and astonishing phenomena emerged. The wedding venue was transformed into an ethereal realm.

“What an astonishing phenomenon!”

“It’s almost like reality, even we semi-sages can’t discern what’s real or fake!”

“No, these phenomena are indeed real. That divine light, those golden lotuses, and celestial flowers are condensed divine essence containing immense energy. Even an ordinary Eternal Realm cultivator would benefit greatly from absorbing them!”

“For the younger generation, this is a great opportunity, and it could even temper their physical bodies, providing many advantages for their cultivation!”

On the high platform, the sect masters and powerful individuals from various forces were all shocked.

Was this the work of a Sage?

“Such amazing treasures!”

“Wow, this is the blessing of the Eternal Life Sage!”

“Quick, absorb it!”

One by one, the geniuses and strong individuals from various forces became excited. While praising the spectacle, they attempted to activate their techniques and absorb the energy frantically.

Soon, they realized that these things couldn’t be absorbed actively. They could only passively absorb them, and it was futile no matter how they activated their techniques. Therefore, after feeling disappointed, everyone gave up on absorbing the energy and redirected their attention to the wedding banquet.

At this moment, above the wedding banquet, Su Changsheng and Gu Qingge had already appeared and were preparing for the wedding ceremony. However, just as Su Changsheng stepped onto the stage, a cold and robotic young voice suddenly echoed.

[Ding, a suitable candidate for a consort, has been detected: Bai Yuege, the princess of the White Cloud Dynasty, possesses exceptional talent and carries the mark of the Great Emperor Taiyin’s divine soul with a [Golden] destiny. It is recommended to marry her as a consort!]

Upon hearing the system’s prompt, Su Changsheng’s hand, which was about to hold Gu Qingge’s, suddenly paused, and he felt somewhat surprised.

Another potential consort and she is even related to a Great Emperor? Interesting! Su Changsheng thought.

Since there appeared to be a qualified candidate, he naturally had no intention of letting her go. Moreover, his divine sense was powerful. With a single thought, he could cover a range of tens of thousands of miles, naturally sensing the presence of Bai Yunlaozu and making connections between the two.

With some speculation, Su Changsheng understood Bai Yunlaozu’s intentions. He seemed to be planning a marriage alliance, trying to take a roundabout approach?!

Su Changsheng found it amusing but didn’t pay much attention to it. After a glance, he shifted his focus to Gu Qingge, who stood before him.

After all, she was his rightful wife. Although not the only one, she was at least the first one for now, and he naturally had to respect her. Even if she was unwilling, it didn’t matter. Su Changsheng would gradually make Gu Qingge willingly accept her fate.

“Qingge!”

Thinking like this, Su Changsheng held her hand, feeling her body stiffen suddenly, and he gazed at Gu Qingge’s face with deep affection, a smile curling up at the corners of his mouth. That intense gaze made Gu Qingge’s whole body stiffen, and she was covered in goosebumps.

My wife, she’s truly beautiful! Su Changsheng admired in his heart.

Although the red veil was made with a high-grade artifact, capable of blocking the divine sense detection of powerful cultivators and concealing the bride’s appearance, how could it hide it from the creator himself? Naturally, he could see her appearance.

It had to be said that Gu Qingge, with her makeup and the red veil, was truly stunning. One glance was enough to captivate a city, let alone a country.

“Today is our joyous day. Let’s smile more!” Su Changsheng said with profound meaning as he looked at Gu Qingge, whose face was frozen and her whole body stiff, his smile deepening. Watching the proud Empress in such a stiff, tearless state really pleased him. He felt an impulse to play with her deeply.

Soon, Gu Qingge’s body relaxed, and her expression became emotionless, but a cold smile formed in her heart. Silently, she kept this humiliation in her heart.

She swore that once her cultivation reached a higher level, she would make Su Changsheng regret his actions! No, that would be letting him off too easily. She would teach him a lesson and make him her servant, serving her for the rest of his life! At this moment, Gu Qingge’s heart was filled with endless resentment.

“Let’s go. It’s time for the wedding!” Su Changsheng held Gu Qingge’s delicate hand and began the wedding ceremony. Due to Su Changsheng’s status as a Saint, many traditional wedding customs were discarded, and only a few simple rituals remained.

“Exchange vows as husband and wife!”

With the backing of his cultivation in the Eternal Ancient Realm, Su Yun’s loud shout shook the entire Tianyuan City and even spread to tens of thousands of miles of land. All the cultivators attending the banquet, including countless mortals, could hear it at this moment. Countless gazes turned towards them, including a group of Half-Saint Patriarchs, powerful figures from various factions, and divine maidens.

The Su family members were particularly excited and nervous. This was their great ancestor Su Changsheng’s first grand wedding!

“Hehe…” Just as Su Changsheng’s eyes were filled with a smile, ready to exchange vows with the blushing and angry Gu Qingge, an old and chilling laughter suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

“Exchange vows as husband and wife? No problem, I’ll soon make you a pair of dead mandarin ducks!”

“Exchange vows on the road to the Yellow Springs!”

As soon as the voice fell…

Boom!

A terrifying and boundless aura of holiness swept over, covering the entire Tianyuan City, causing it to tremble. Countless cultivators and mortals, at this moment, showed expressions of shock.

The Patriarchs of top-tier forces and many Half-Saints stood up one after another, their expressions filled with astonishment.

Was a saint attacking?

Su Changsheng’s face gradually turned cold, and a terrifying killing intent burst out from his eyes.
