Bai Muyu looked at Xiao Chou, and for some reason, recollections of that helpless little monkey who had almost been killed by that black panther sprang to mind.
She had only saved the little monkey as an act of sympathy, and she had never thought that the little monkey would grow up to be her daughter’s love interest and perhaps even her son-in-law…
This didn’t make sense! She had felt at ease allowing her daughter to play with him exactly because he was hideous! There was no chance of her daughter falling in love with this unsightly monkey, right?
She felt like he was a very safe playmate for her daughter.
So… how had things become like this?
Bai Muyu felt like the world had just played a prank on her.
Xiao Chou’s Divine Flame was something he had gotten from his Dark God Inheritance at the Purple Star Research Institute.
Back when he was at the Spirit Nurturing Stage, these flames had already reached Divine Flame level purity.
Now that his cultivation base had progressed to the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage, his yin-type Divine Flame had only increased in purity.
From a practical standpoint, Xiao Chou’s flames were even more suitable for Bai Yao than Chen Nan’s Divine Flame…
“Bai Yao’s condition is constantly worsening so we shouldn’t delay any further. I think we should make preparations for a wedding right away.”
Just as Bai Muyu was still grappling with her internal conflict, An Lin began to fan the flames again.
A conflicted expression surfaced on Bai Muyu’s exquisitely seductive features, and she turned to glare at An Lin, who was doing his best to repress the joy in his heart.
She then turned to look at Xiao Chou.
Xiao Chou’s entire body tensed up under the gaze of his mother-in-law, and he silently stood upright in a more formal stance, as if he were being appraised by a supervisor at work. His serious expression made his ugly face look a bit more solemn.
Bai Muyu massaged her brows. She felt exhausted. “Alright… Even though you’re a little ugly, no one can blame you for that as that’s a God-given trait. Since there is a mutual love between the two of you, I won’t be dogmatic and insist on opposing this marriage.”
A moment of silence ensued.
Immediately following which was a burst of raucous cheers that made the entire mountain tremor lightly!
Xiao Chou’s bulb-like eyes were like a pair of sprinklers as tears gushed forth. “Mother!”
Bai Muyu’s lips twitched. “I don’t have an ugly son like you.”
Xiao Chou: “…”
“Give me a hug, in-law!”
An Lin shamelessly spread open his arms in an attempt to envelop the gorgeous vixen before him in a tight hug.
“Piss off!” Bai Muyu harrumphed coldly as she aimed a palm toward An Lin, which immediately knocked him back several kilometers into the distance.
Xiao Chou and Da Bai each drew a sharp intake of breath.
If that palm were to land on either of them, they would have been reduced to mincemeat on the spot!
…
At the westernmost point of the Tai Chu Continent.
There was a boundless expanse of ocean known as the West Sea.
The West Sea was one of the most perilous places on the Tai Chu Continent with countless species of powerful sea monsters lurking within its depths. If one wasn’t powerful enough before making a trip to the West Sea, they would probably die without even knowing how it had happened.
The two most powerful tribes within the West Sea were the Spirit Fish Clan and the Heavenly Turtle Tribe.
The Spirit Fish Clan inhabited the Hong Meng Divine Altar at the bottom of the ocean and had all of the living beings within the West Sea under their command. Meanwhile, the Heavenly Turtle Tribe inhabited the Divination Realm, and even though they insisted on secluding themselves and had no external forces under their command, no other living beings dared to encroach upon their territory.
At this moment in time, within the Sea Heart Palace, which was located near the Hong Meng Divine Altar…
There was a handsome man sipping a green alcoholic beverage. This was a delectable wine that had been brewed with the power of yin from the bottom of the ocean, and it was capable of making one more alert and beautifying one’s skin.
“Chen Nan, are you really alright? It has already been so long, but there is still no news about that b*tch, Bai Yao. Can your body hold on?” A mermaid with a blue fishtail inquired with furrowed brows.
“Don’t worry, Bai Yao’s condition is much worse than mine, and she’s already on the brink of death. It won’t be long before Bai Muyu comes here and begs me to marry Bai Yao.” Chen Nan swirled his drink around his glass with an expression that was brimming with confidence.
Even though his Dark Corrosion Divine Flame was becoming more and more difficult to control, it would be a long time before the flames progressed to an uncontrollable state.
On the contrary, Bai Yao didn’t have much time left. Bai Muyu loved her daughter deeply, and he was absolutely confident that she would come to him and beg him to marry his daughter before long.
Lan Xiaoni harrumphed coldly. “That little b*tch sure lucked out. I’m setting some ground rules in advance! She can only be your concubine, and you’re not allowed to love her more than you love me!”
“Don’t worry.” A faint smile appeared on Chen Nan’s face. “In my heart, she holds less than one-thousandth of the position that you do. She is just a filthy rag that I’ll toss aside after using.”
A blush appeared on Lan Xiaoni’s face upon hearing this, and she stared at the handsome man before her with eyes that were full of tender affection.
A gentle smile appeared on Chen Nan’s face in response, and he made his way toward Lan Xiaoni.
He had gone to great lengths and expended much effort to convince Lan Xiaoni to accept Bai Yao.
When the time came, he would have a mermaid princess as well as the number one beauty of the Fox Tribe as his concubine. It would be a sweet life!
In reality, he hadn’t managed to take Lan Xiaoni’s virginity yet. The Spirit Fish Clan’s imperial family had very strict rules that prevented him from doing so prior to marriage.
Wouldn’t it be a good idea to take advantage of this opportunity and…
Right at this moment…
A golden lobster barged in with a panicked expression.
“M-m-m-m-m… Master, I have bad news!”
The atmosphere had been completely ruined by the golden lobster, and Chen Nan turned to it with an enraged expression. “What is it? Hurry up and deliver your report or piss off!”
“We’ve just received the news that another wedding is going to be held for Bai Yao tomorrow, and her groom this time is an elder of the Four Nine Immortal Sect, Xiao Chou!” The golden lobster delivered a flustered report.
Bam!
The sound of glass cracking erupted.
The wineglass slipped from Chen Nan’s hand and shattered on the ground, sending green wine splashing onto the ground.
He stood up abruptly, and a powerful aura erupted forth from his body!
“Bai Yao? Four Nine Immortal Sect? Hehe… Very good!”
Within Qing Hu City of the Creation Realm…
The Fox Tribe, which had only just settled back into their normal lives for less than a month, was preparing for another celebration.
This time, they were celebrating a marriage between Bai Yao of the White Fox Tribe and Xiao Chou of the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
The stunning kiss between the number one beauty of the Fox Tribe and the ugly monkey had become a story known throughout the entire Fox Tribe.
Their story had gradually reached legendary status as it was passed on from one fox to another.
There were stories that spoke of how Bai Yao had once gotten lost in the Myriad Mountain Domain and the ugly monkey had taken her under his wing and protected her. After that, they gradually fell in love with one another over time.
There were also stories that spoke of how God wanted to accentuate the contrast between beauty and ugliness by setting these two living beings up with one another in order to show the world what beauty was and what ugliness was.
Hence, they were always meant to be together.
Only the hideous Xiao Chou was worthy of the most beautiful existence in this world.
There were many versions of these stories that were being spread around, and the relationship between Bai Yao and Xiao Chou had become the hottest topic across the land.
It was exactly because of this that the living beings of the Creation Realm weren’t really against the marriage between Bai Yao and Xiao Chou. In fact, many of them were offering their most genuine blessing to the happy couple.
Only true love could bring such a bizarre couple together!
The wedding was going to be held at the White Fox Tribe’s imperial palace.
If it weren’t for the fact that time was of the essence, An Lin would definitely have urged Xiao Chou and Bai Yao to hold their wedding at the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
However, Bai Yao didn’t have much time, so they could only hold the wedding at the White Fox Imperial Palace.
Bai Yao had already woken up after drinking Xiao Chou’s blood essence, and they could immediately do what had to be done to neutralize the power of her Frosty Yang Root after the wedding.
The next day, the highly-anticipated wedding commenced as promised!
