Before Phoenix City, the crowd gathered, the streets bustling with carriages and horses.
Su Yao personally stood at the city gate, her previously aloof expression now adorned with a smile, gazing at the comings and goings of everyone.
A very long red carpet stretched into the distance, its end unknown.
Dao Sovereign Realm cultivators from the Phoenix Sect appeared, divided into two groups, each with about ten thousand people, standing on either side of the city gate.
This was not a command from Su Han, but rather their own initiative to come.
"Tsk tsk, look at this momentum. Truly worthy of being the Young Master of the foremost sect!"
"Dao Sovereign cultivators personally appearing to guard, and with each group having ten thousand people, who else in the entire Lower-Class Star Region could accomplish such a scene besides the Phoenix Sect?"
"Alas, being the son of Lord Emperor is an honor in itself!"
"Quick, look, that should be the eldest daughter of the Phoenix Sect, right?"
"Eldest daughter? Su Yao?"
"Indeed, just by looking at her appearance, one can tell—she’s absolutely stunning!"
"I wonder who could marry such a woman. If it were me, even if I lived a thousand years less, I’d still be willing."
"Don’t even think about it. Not only does Su Yao have such beauty, but her aptitude like Lord Emperor is not something an ordinary man can covet."
"Indeed, there are countless men pursuing her, yet she hasn’t found a single one worth her gaze."
"Can we stop talking about this? Today is her brother’s wedding, and she’s personally present to support the occasion, yet you’re discussing this."
"Right, let’s stop talking. It’d be troublesome if the Phoenix Sect overheard us."
"Che, a fair maiden, a gentleman’s desire—besides, the Phoenix Sect is not the kind to use its power to bully others. We’re praising her, not insulting."
Many loose cultivators stood around Phoenix City, watching the fiery red festive atmosphere, showing their envy.
They all knew that the union between Su Qing and Du Xi was certainly not a marriage between sects, hence the wedding.
Mutual affection, coupled with such a scene, is truly the happiest and most enviable.
"Swish swish swish..."
At this moment, large groups of figures came from afar.
From their attire, it was obvious these people were from one of the Nine Factions, the people of the Immortal Sword Sect.
The Phoenix Sect had not extended invitations to the Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects, yet they came on their own initiative.
In such matters, the Phoenix Sect naturally wouldn’t turn them away.
"Immortal Sword Sect, arrived—"
Su Yao’s voice echoed, still smiling at the people of the Immortal Sword Sect as she had with others.
From the Immortal Sword Sect, the Sect Master, Deputy Sect Master, and others came personally, with the lowest cultivation base being Fusion Realm experts.
Upon landing, their Sect Master bowed and respectfully said, "The Immortal Sword Sect comes bearing gifts, wishing Young Master Su Qing and Miss Du Xi a long life together and a prosperous lineage."
As he spoke, those behind him, Dao Sovereign Realm and Fusion Realm cultivators alike, adjusted their garments, intending to kneel and pay respects.
"Today is my brother’s wedding, let’s forego such formalities."
Su Yao smiled politely, gestured, and said, "Guests are welcome, please come in. Inside, we’ve prepared high-grade fruit and tea, and hope that you do not feel slighted by our Phoenix Sect’s lack of hospitality."
"Not at all, not at all..."
The people of the Immortal Sword Sect immediately smiled, feeling relieved.
Before this, they were anxious that the Phoenix Sect might publicly drive them out in front of so many people.
Fortunately, the Phoenix Sect wasn’t so excessive...
After the Immortal Sword Sect—
"Sect of the Heavenly River, arrived—"
"Yulin Pavilion, arrived—"
"Sect of the Four Saints, arrived—"
Su Yao’s voice constantly echoed.
"Qing Emperor Sect, arrived—"
"Divine Dao Religion, arrived—"
"Sect of the Supreme Void, arrived—"
The Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects, as if coordinated, all arrived at Phoenix City.
Whether they had longstanding grievances with the Phoenix Sect or not, none were absent.
They wore smiles on their faces, but beneath those smiles lay tension and apprehension.
One after another, gifts were presented, falling into the hands of the Phoenix Sect members, who did not hold back.
Feeding them, entertaining them, collecting a few billion Spirit Crystals, what of it?
Around eight in the morning, all powers had arrived.
Even the loose cultivators, who weren’t invited much initially, as long as they were willing and presented gifts, the Phoenix Sect would invite them into Phoenix City.
As the number of people grew larger, most of Phoenix City was occupied by shadows.
In comparison, among the forces of the Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects, not many people attended, with numbers only reaching a few hundred at most.
Over ninety percent of these were members of the Phoenix Sect and loose cultivators.
Food and drinks posed no problem.
When you really think about it, how much does it cost?
And every loose cultivator entering, each presented at least a thousand Spirit Crystals.
Of course, the Phoenix Sect didn’t intend to profit from Spirit Crystals, but from their perspective, if these loose cultivators were willing to extend their courtesy, how could the Phoenix Sect refuse?
The sunlight grew more intense.
Before Phoenix City, it was already packed with people.
As the elder sister, Su Yao seemed somewhat nervous.
From time to time, she glanced at the sky, as if worried about delaying the hour.
Until a certain moment—
"Time has come!"
Su Yao suddenly spoke up, her delicate face filled with excitement: "The groom arrives, fetch the bride!!"
"Boom!"
From behind Phoenix City, a massive roar suddenly came.
Countless eyes turned to look in that direction.
They saw an illusory light bridge rising from the ground, forming an arc, and extending toward the city gate.
Four figures appeared, they were Xuanyuan Shengyi, Xuanyuan Ninghui, Xuanyuan Chengyu, and Xuanyuan Feng.
They were dressed in red, each carrying a long wooden slab upon their shoulders.
It was a fiery red bridal sedan chair!
"Hiss!!"
Across the scene, sounds of sharp inhalation spread.
"If I’m not mistaken, these four sedan chair carriers should be the Golden Crystal Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly Emperor Shuiyi, Tyrant Martial Emperor, and the Martial Emperor of Soul Suppression from the Phoenix Sect, right?"
"My gosh, four Sub-Immortal level mighty beings as sedan chair carriers? How supremely glorious is that!!!"
"Who else besides the Young Master and eldest daughter of the Phoenix Sect could invite them?"
"Sub-Immortal level beings... in the entire Lower-Class Star Region, even within the Three Teachings, there’s only one Sub-Immortal level at most—not exceeding two, yet the Phoenix Sect uses them as carriers!!!"
"Insanity, absolute insanity!"
"This is the Phoenix Sect, the foremost sect of the Lower-Class Star Region!!!"
Exclaims and roars of excitement erupted from the crowd, even those from the Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects couldn’t help but join in the fervor.
"Swish swish swish swish..."
At this moment, numerous figures shot up from the ground, landing on the illusory bridge.
