“Where could Ice Chunk have hidden it?”
Ke Mo scratched his head. It was broad daylight with no moon, so he couldn’t initiate a private conversation with Ice Chunk.
Moreover, since that was where Ice Chunk had hidden it, she might not tell him anyway.
He looked up at his mother, hoping to get a hint from her expression.
Gu Xueqin smiled and shook her head, “Little Ice Girl hid it, I don’t know either.”
As she spoke, Mrs. Gu noticed her son’s wandering eyes, so she cautiously blocked the door:
“Don’t peek at the bride before we’re ready, and don’t sneakily lift Little Ice Girl’s veil later.”
In terms of wealth, Ke Mo was as rich as a country.
In terms of martial arts, he was invincible in his realm, with the Eighty-Nine Divine Changes making him nearly invulnerable.
But now he was at a loss because the one blocking the door was his mother.
It seems he can only find that thing…
Just then, light footsteps came from behind his mother, and Ke Mo turned his gaze to see a shocking red.
He found the wedding dress very red, but not as red as her blushing face.
She lowered her head, her trembling eyelashes revealing a glimmer in her eyes:
“Mama, don’t let him look for it.”
“You child, how could…”
Gu Xueqin first froze, thinking about a sudden imperial decree during a critical battle.
Then she burst out laughing, remembering her own wedding when she saw Old Ke searching frantically, secretly instructing a servant to return the hidden item to plain sight.
At that time, everyone at home said they had never seen such a bride who eagerly wanted to marry.
“I’ve already brought back what was hidden.”
“Huh? I didn’t see it?”
“I’m wearing it…”
Gu Xueqin didn’t understand.
Ke Mo took Ice Chunk’s hand, planning to take her away, but hearing this, he leaned back slightly, looking down, unable to help but gasp.
Everyone knows that if Ke Mo had to choose between Ice Chunk’s martial arts prowess and her legs, he would definitely pick the latter.
Moreover, under the red dress of the phoenix crown and bridal veil…
“Mama, shall we skip the part where we step over the fire basin later?”
“Why skip it? Afraid it might catch fire in the dry weather?”
“Whether it burns or not, I’m worried about your health.”
“?”
When Gu Xueqin was puzzled, Ke Mo took a deep breath, intending to carry Ice Chunk on his back, but finally carried her horizontally.
She was very light, yet he broke out in a sweat and his hands were shaking.
Ying Bing was also at a loss, seeing his expression made her want to laugh.
The upright gentleman who usually acted seriously was now acting like a childish ghost.
“Childish ghost, carry me away.”
“Not carrying you away.”
“So, are you going to marry me or not?”
“…”
Ke Mo’s breathing stopped.
He felt that even with the ultimate practice of the Eighty-Nine Divine Changes and the Law of Heaven and Earth, he couldn’t withstand this attack.
The unique coldness of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was now resting on his shoulder, blushing and smiling, asking if he wanted to take her home.
Who could resist?
“Mama, I’m taking Ice Chunk away.”
“Go ahead.”
Gu Xueqin smiled, but tears welled up in her eyes. She quickly wiped them with a red handkerchief.
With blurred vision becoming clear again, the childish ghost suddenly gained courage, holding his sister bride and walking out proudly.
Towards the sunlight, towards the crowd!
“Ice Chunk, what song are you singing?”
“It’s the one you hummed that day, saying you heard it from the Buddhist temple.”
“I suspect you knew it was Zhu Bajie carrying his wife, but I have no evidence.”
Their voices echoed.
“How nice.”
Qianxing Wuzun’s voice rang in Xiao Qian’s mind: “I feel my body warming up.”
Isn’t the teacher left with just the Consciousness Soul?
Xiao Qian’s lips twitched, but the focus wasn’t on this now.
“Teacher, do you think now that I’m the only one who remembers that this grand betrothal was to lure out the enemy and ambush the demon…?”
“Child, you’ve always been honest; that’s why I chose you.”
“?”
“Don’t worry, let’s go eat. Sit with the children’s table; they eat slowly, so you can let me have some food and drink.”
Xiao Qian sensed something unusual about the children’s table but had no proof.
“I feel like I forgot something…”
Halfway through her emotions, Mrs. Gu froze, realizing the ‘red handkerchief’ she used to wipe her tears was not a handkerchief at all.
It was Little Ice Girl’s red veil.
“Oh, wait, son!”
…
Smoke rose above the Ziyang Mansion, quite noticeable even in the clear blue sky.
For the smoke to explode and scatter, creating petals, there’s no need to worry about how it’s done. The God of Marriages in Da Shang is responsible for these things, specializing in professionalism.
Under the rain of petals, a horse galloped through the city, and wherever it went, the petals followed.
Ying Bing held the veil, leaning against Li Mo.
She said that with the veil on, the noise and excitement outside were barely visible.
Now, the sunlight was bright, and the autumn breeze was cool, like a sea of mountains and rivers.
Even if she couldn’t see anything, even without sensing the Inner World, everything felt real.
She didn’t marry him in a hazy dream.
A complex sigh echoed in her heart, not hers.
With blessings and expectations.
The Ninth Heaven Immortal, whom she had been wary of and guarded against, was silently watching all this, seemingly plotting to leave.
“Ice Chunk, it looks like there’s a river ahead. We might fall into the water.”
“Liar, we’re clearly close to Qingyuan Sect.”
“…”
“In the future, you won’t need excuses to hold me tight, childish ghost.”
“That’s right.”
Li Mo realized he had been tricked by Ice Chunk, which meant he admitted to often using excuses.
Oddly enough, his words weren’t as firm as before.
This is the law of soft and hard balance!
When words aren’t firm, that Hammer Treasure…
“Now you’re still a childish ghost…” Li Mo said as he lifted her off the horse, pouting.
Before he finished speaking, Ice Chunk whispered in his ear.
Li Mo felt a little excited but heard her cool voice with a smile:
“What do you want to hear?”
“Just, something between spouses.”
“Oh.” Ying Bing tilted her head: “But the ceremony isn’t complete yet.”
Looking at Ice Chunk under the veil, as if seeing a smile on her face, Li Mo got goosebumps all over.
That’s it.
Heaven is also bad for Ice Chunk!
But there’s good news.
Heaven can stop being a childish ghost.
