Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 479: Greeting Your Own Ancestors for 8 Generations

Chapter 479: Chapter 479: Greeting Your Own Ancestors for 8 Generations

As the tea ceremony concluded, Xia Liang slowly stood up.

He scanned the entire hall and said slowly, "Today, our Divine Clan’s eldest Miss Xia Mian and the Wood Clan’s Young Master Lu Zechuan are joined as husband and wife, witnessed by heaven and earth, sun and moon, with blessings from the elders and joy from all guests. The ceremony is complete, and the marriage contract appears!"

As his words fell, the air before him turned into a mist, and every word he had spoken slowly floated in the air, finally transforming into two beams of light that entered Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan’s brows.

Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan clearly sensed that there was a certain inseparable connection between them.

Xia Mian paused for a moment; so this is the marriage contract of the Mystical World?

Both of them could clearly sense what the other was thinking...

So, if one wants to betray, the other can clearly sense it?

"Congratulations to the Divine Clan’s eldest Miss and the Wood Clan’s Young Master on their happy union!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.

As the first voice rang out, the guests’ congratulations followed one after another, rising higher and higher.

Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan thanked everyone.

The guests, looking at the smiling Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan, doubted whether it was truly this young lady of the Divine Clan who had previously forced them to sign that humiliating contract.

The young lady before them appeared very agreeable.

After the newlyweds thanked the guests, the banquet officially began.

According to the customs of the Mystical World, the wedding was now considered complete.

Whether the newlyweds would stay to chat with the guests or leave was entirely up to their own wishes.

Xia Mian originally intended to leave, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw Gu Yuan sitting somewhat evasively in the quietest corner of the banquet hall.

Xia Mian frowned slightly and slowly walked toward Gu Yuan.

Seeing Xia Mian walking towards him, Gu Yuan’s expression became slightly unnatural, but then he put on a smiling face, "Congratulations to the eldest Miss on this joyous day!"

Xia Mian smiled softly, "Gu Family Head, long time no see."

Gu Yuan smiled obsequiously, "Today is your joyous day, Miss Xia. I wish you and Mr. Lu eternal love and happiness, and descendants that flourish."

Xia Mian tugged lightly at the corner of her lips, not responding to Gu Yuan’s words, but instead her gaze flickered as she softly asked, "Gu Zhi, is she well?"

As soon as Xia Mian asked this, Gu Yuan’s smile visibly stiffened.

"Gu Zhi? She is doing well. Recently, she has gained the favor of the clan’s elders and is currently in closed cultivation," Gu Yuan replied with a smile, seemingly recalling how promising Gu Zhi was.

Xia Mian let out a soft "oh," "For such an important event like my marriage, the Gu Family Head didn’t inform her?"

Xia Mian’s face maintained a smile, though it was unclear whether the smile was more hostile or friendly.

Gu Yuan only felt a cold sweat break out on his back.

With Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan’s wedding approaching, he had contemplated bringing Gu Zhi to attend the wedding. With Gu Zhi as a mediator, they could establish connections with the Divine and Wood Clans.

Unfortunately, that foolish girl Gu Zhi was reckless enough to defy him!

She even touched the scar he didn’t want anyone to uncover!

"Miss Xia, you make it difficult. In the Mystical World’s path of cultivation, we all know how crucial opportunity and enlightenment are. Gu Zhi finally felt a sense of enlightenment and voluntarily chose to go into seclusion. How could I disturb her..." Gu Yuan said with a forced smile.

No matter what, Gu Zhi belongs to the Gu Family, and whether she lives or dies is up to him!

Even if Xia Mian is the eldest daughter of the Divine Clan, what can she do?

She has no authority to interfere with Gu Family matters!

"The Gu Family Head is right." Xia Mian nodded thoughtfully, "Then I’ll visit the Gu Family to see her after my wedding with Lu Zechuan is over!"

When Qin Shuang entrusted Gu Zhi to her, she successfully delivered Gu Zhi back to the Gu Family, but she hadn’t considered whether Gu Zhi could survive there until now.

Seeing Gu Yuan today and exchanging a few words, Xia Mian vaguely sensed that Gu Zhi’s situation might not be good.

Upon hearing that Xia Mian planned to visit the Gu Family, Gu Yuan’s face showed a bit of discomfort, but he couldn’t bring himself to refuse.

After all, it was Xia Mian who brought Gu Zhi back to the Gu Family, and Gu Zhi had some level of relationship with her.

Now, Xia Mian wants to see Gu Zhi; neither reason nor propriety should stop him from allowing it.

"Miss Xia visiting our Xuanmen Gu Family is our honor! You are always welcome to visit, Miss Xia!" Gu Yuan said with a smile.

Even though his heart screamed not to let Xia Mian set foot in the Gu Family, he couldn’t utter a word of refusal now.

After all, if he showed any hint of strangeness, Xia Mian, with her intelligence, would immediately sense that there was something amiss with him.

For now, the best strategy was to leave the Divine Clan intact. As for Xia Mian visiting the Gu Family, he would deal with it when the time came!

Xia Mian smiled but chose not to continue tangling with Gu Yuan.

Today was her joyous day, not a day to cause trouble.

Xia Mian took Lu Zechuan’s arm and left to toast other guests, allowing Gu Yuan to let out a breath of relief quietly.

Luckily, he managed that well.

Those guests who were toasted by Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan were visibly honored.

After all, she was the eldest Miss of the Divine Clan, currently one of the most powerful figures in the entire Mystical World. Being toasted by her was something they could boast to their descendants for a lifetime!

Even if, in this setting, Xia Mian might even have fed a dog, it didn’t stop them from bragging about it.

After a brief socializing period, Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan gracefully exited the scene.

Once Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan left, only then did the crowd dare to gently breathe out.

Even though Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan seemed approachable today, the pressure around them was immense. It felt like... a mountain was lifted off their chests.

Xia Zhun, Xia Liang, and Shen Mu took the initiative to entertain the guests.

A guest is a guest, and though there had been previous tensions, on this joyous day, Xia Zhun and the others decided not to dwell on past grievances.

The banquet carried on till the afternoon, and only then did members of the Mystical Sects gradually take their leave.

Members of the Divine Clan began cleaning up the aftermath.

Meanwhile, Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan made some preparations to follow Shen Mu to the Wood Clan.

The Wood Clan Leader also meticulously prepared a wedding ceremony. Although he hadn’t sent invitations to all the Mystical Sects like the Divine Clan, all the necessary invites had been sent.

He certainly didn’t intend for his only grandson’s life’s major event to be ambiguous.

Even if his only grandson was internally cursing his ancestry, he remained unconcerned.

Lu Zechuan genuinely wanted to curse his grandfather’s ancestry!

Whose auspicious day ends without a bridal chamber and instead is rushed to attend another wedding—seriously?

Couldn’t it wait until tomorrow?

Lu Zechuan felt that his wedding at the Divine Clan was incomplete.
