Chapter 2340: Chapter 2336: A Grand Wedding_1

“Alright, since you both have some understanding of the situation, the mission to the Yin River is entrusted to the two of you,” Sun Zu said.

“Sun Zu, do you mean…” Chen Yangqi did not understand.

Yang Chen was also confused.

Sun Zu laughed helplessly: “This situation is out of our control. The Netherworld’s ghosts in the Yin River have already been cleansed. However, the spatial node connecting the Yin River to the Netherworld cannot be destroyed so easily. Moreover, after observation, the Netherworld continues to send more ghosts through the spatial node. So, the various clans discussed and decided to send cultivators into this spatial node to eliminate these infiltrating Netherworld ghosts.”

“These Netherworld ghosts are for us to deal with?” Chen Yangqi was curious. Shouldn’t those Mahayana stage experts just eliminate them on the spot? Why leave it to them? Chen Yangqi couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Sun Zu explained: “In that spatial node, only cultivators below the Mahayana stage can enter. Experts at the Mahayana stage can’t do anything to the spatial node from the outside, and if they act inside, it might cause spatial turbulence, resulting in all cultivators and ghosts being forever trapped in their respective realms. So, to eliminate these ghosts, we can only use cultivators below the Mahayana stage.”

“Of course, you two don’t need to worry. The ghosts inside the spatial node are also below the Mahayana stage. That’s the reason why we say it is within manageable control. The only regret is that the Tianpeng Clan could have handled it on their own, but being cunning, they didn’t want to lose too much manpower from their own clan and dragged other groups into action. After discussion among the human forces, each clan sent several powerful figures.”

At this point, Sun Zu spoke with a bit of embarrassment: “Our Xuan Dao Sect has sent you two as our elites.”

Thinking about the other groups who would send several Nirvana Stage cultivators, Sun Zu was unhappy.

It was common knowledge that those who went to the Yin River mostly consisted of Nirvana period cultivators. Sun Zu had struggled to send one Nirvana period cultivator, and though there was another, they had to stay behind as a permanent guardian.

Out of helplessness, Sun Zu chose to let Yang Chen go and make up the numbers.

Yang Chen saw Sun Zu’s difficulty and quickly said: “This junior is willing to go through fire and water for the Xuan Dao Sect!”

“Sun Zu, leave this matter to me and Yang Chen!” Chen Yangqi cupped his fists courteously and calmly agreed.

Sun Zu smiled: “Alright, Chen Yangqi, I trust you to handle this well. I can be at ease knowing that Yang Chen is going with you.”

Yang Chen asked one more question: “Sun Zu, when should we set off for the Yin River?”

“Hmm, this matter is quite urgent, but don’t worry, it won’t affect your marriage to Zhang Xuelian. At that time, the old man will personally accompany you to go there,” Sun Zu, having lived for so many years, would surely understand Yang Chen’s concerns and laughed heartily.

Upon hearing Sun Zu’s guarantee, Yang Chen knew that everything was settled, and thanked him: “This junior thanks Sun Zu.”

…

With a clear understanding of the Yin River mission, Yang Chen can’t help but keep it in mind.

Therefore, during this time, he had been researching the Ancient God Spear Technique, hoping to enhance his strength before going to the Yin River.

After all, once he cultivated the Ancient God Spear Technique, he planned to make a breakthrough to the Nirvana Stage in one go.

In this way, it took him three months to successfully cultivate the Ancient God Spear Technique and naturally comprehend the Golden Dao Intentions.

Having practiced the Ancient God Spear Technique, Yang Chen proceeded to the matter of marrying Zhang Xuelian.

Each of the Twelve States had their own rules. When men and women from different forces got married, there was no need for solemnity or grand celebrations, but the dowry must be sufficient.

Yang Chen provided an ample dowry, and there were no obstacles when he came to marry Zhang Xuelian.

Situ Zhenan and others from the Taiyi Sect did not cause any trouble, allowing Yang Chen to smoothly take Zhang Xuelian away with him.

The moment Zhang Xuelian was taken out of the Taiyi Sect by Yang Chen, it meant that she was no longer a part of Taiyi Sect but became a person of the Xuan Dao Sect.

At that moment, everyone had their own thoughts and feelings.

For Situ Zhenan and Ling Dongsheng, it was a good deal. Although they lost Zhang Xuelian, a Chosen One, they gained fifty drops of Jin Yang Fluid in exchange, which was a great bargain.

However, the Undying Heavenly Venerate and his son Yuan Changsheng didn’t look too happy.

Especially Yuan Changsheng, who once thought Zhang Xuelian would be his fiancee. In the end, it was all in vain.

Zhang Xuelian didn’t like him at all, and there was a significant gap between him and her.

Besides, there was Hua Wanru.

When Yang Chen went to pick up Zhang Xuelian, he thought Hua Wanru would come.

But he didn’t see her at all.

Yang Chen was relieved by this. It seemed that Hua Wanru had truly given up. If she had followed through with what she said and traveled far away, it would be even better.

At least, he could pretend to know nothing about it.

This way, Yang Chen brought Zhang Xuelian out of the Taiyi Sect.

With Sun Zu and other Xuan Dao Sect people accompanying them, they returned to the Xuan Dao Sect.

That’s how the story of Yang Chen and Zhang Xuelian became known far and wide. One was a Chosen One, and the other was an unparalleled genius of the present era. Their union was a peerless love story that would be passed down through the ages.

From then on, people knew that Yang Chen and Zhang Xuelian had become husband and wife, partners for life.

Undoubtedly, the happiest of all were the Xuan Dao Sect people.

Not only did they have an extraordinary figure, but they also gained a Chosen One. It was absolutely perfect and a two-for-one deal.

Therefore, even Sun Zu was particularly attentive to the marriage of Yang Chen and Zhang Xuelian. Using his Realmless status, he postponed Yang Chen’s journey to the Yin River for a full month, allowing for a perfect wedding for Yang Chen and Zhang Xuelian.

The wedding day had to be grand and splendid.

Sun Zu specially invited Qingyu Gate and numerous other nearby forces to hold a grand and luxurious wedding banquet for thousands of guests, with countless distinguished figures attending.

Many others came uninvited upon hearing it was Yang Chen’s wedding day, just to show some respect to Yang Chen.

After all, Yang Chen’s status and reputation had spread far and wide throughout the Twelve States. Even Nirvana Stage experts were eager to befriend him.

This day was a night of revelry and the most beautiful day for Yang Chen and Zhang Xuelian.

The entire Xuan Dao Sect, from top to bottom, thoroughly felt this unprecedented grand atmosphere…

Yang Chen and Zhang Xuelian, after the climax of their wedding day, returned to their bridal chamber.
