Bai Lengshui Sect
Ice Lotus Palace...
Clad in a similar red robe to Chun Hongyun-Jun, Hei Anjing appeared before him with a huge smile on his face. He usefully doesn’t wear makeup unless it is necessary. Now his cerise lips were even more tinted than usual making look like ripe cherries to be plucked. His light brunette hair half tied up with red lotus flowers, Hei Anjing’s father, the Immortal Emperor, Hei Tianyu, held his hand as he escorted his youngest son to the gates of the Sect.
At the gates, was Chun Hongyun-Jun wearing a paired crimson robe that matches his irises, he looked stoic until he saw his bride escorted by the Emperor of the Heavens himself. The couple smiled at each other as if they could only see one another.
The pair looked on awkwardly as Hei Tianyu coughed to draw their gaze back to him. He extended Chun Hongyun-hand Jun’s and handed his youngest son’s hand to it, pausing for a few seconds.
The Immortal Emperor, Hei Tianyu says, “Xiao Jie today I’ve passed my youngest son’s hand to yours. You should never dare to let him go else you know…” a cold hum full of warning was heard after he spoke his line.
Chun Hongyun-Jun saluted his master and vowed to do as he promised before accepting Hei Anjing’s hands. “I vowed. To never once again let go of his hand, Master. No... Father Hei.”
On the other hand, Bai Qiyin who was falling behind his elder brother together with the Immortal Empress and his family showed a slight discontent towards this man who kidnapped his brother.
“Hmp! I will definitely bring home my elder brother if you bully him! Mark my word Ye Xiajie!” shouted Bai Qiyin who is currently being dragged inside by his father, Bai Yuyan, and his younger sister, Bai Lili.
.....
Father Bai reprimands, “Enough Qiqi we need to arrive at the venue of the ceremony with everyone before the couple. Tomorrow, prepare the rest of the dowry to be sent to the Lan Zhuayun Sect and your sister will help you with listing the bride price Ye Jieye sent to the family.”
“Dad, let go! I’m not done with him yet!” complained Bai Qiyin.
Chun Hongyun-Jun held his wife’s hand while escorting him on the way. They are immortals but they choose to take their time walking on their way back home. The red carpet was prepared to show their route. Though they don’t need to take their rest, everyone still prepared a few inns for them to stay.
The pair decided to walk back to the Western City, which would ordinarily take days and relished having the world to themselves. The two Venerable Lords were escorted out of the Northern City by immortal soldiers wearing full plate armor. For that, this couple can stroll together, and the rest can see their backs only as they go toward the road.
Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye took advantage of the solitude of the forest while traveling to the Capital City. Before they get to the northern border, the pair enjoy a breathtaking red-orange sunset. They appreciated the unusual environment at night, treating it like a night date as fireflies flew around in a fantastical backdrop.
On the third day, they reached the capital and were welcomed by royal knights by the current reigning Empress, the former Princess Hou. A lantern night festival was prepared for their arrival. Their path was filled with side stalls which the two enjoyed a lot, especially Hei Anjing, this foodie. With their fingers intertwined the two walked into the festival buying cotton candies, candied apples, grilled squids, yakisobas, etc.
On this night, Xia Jieye did his duty as a courier carrying his wife’s snacks and cakes. Before dawn, glorious and luxurious fireworks with shapes of Dragons and phoenixes light the evening sky. Hei Anjing watches the festive scene while leaning on the shoulder of his lover.
The next morning they once again left the capital and enter the border of the Western Territories. On the way, they were lucky and found natural hot springs which two choose to dip in and rest for the evening. As for dinner, Chun Hongyun-Jun chose to hunt in the wild while allowing his wife to take a nap. Obviously, they didn’t just enjoy the hot spring but another night’s spring together as lovers.
A bonfire was lit by Chun Hongyun-Jun to keep the surroundings warm. He started preparing the world board and pheasants he caught on the way. After making skewers with pork and some beggar chicken, Xia Jieye gently woke up his beloved for dinner. Before going to sleep after eating they enjoyed stargazing before going to sleep.
The journey back to the west took at least a week on foot. On the seventh day, Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye finally reached the entrance of the Western City. Another city covered in red lanterns once again welcomes the couple. Each child that bumps into them gives Hei Anjing a purple flower called Heliotrope until he creates a bouquet of purple blooms in his hand. The meaning of this flower is eternal love
Once they finally reached the gates of the Lan Zhuayun Sect, Hei Anjing, and Xia Jieye knew that the final stage of the ceremony, which is exchanging rites, would take place at the Main Peak of the Sect
The breathtaking scenery of purity and cleanliness of the Lan Zhuayun Sect is now not found. The stair entrance of Cloud Recesses is now covered in thick red carpets and the trees were now covered in red ribbons and red hanging lanterns. It was already nightfall when the couple arrived.
As soon as the main couple landed by the entrance, Yun Anjie held an umbrella to cover both his father and mother while the rest of the disciples gently put over a red veil with a purple flower pattern over Hei Anjing’s head with the disciples carefully holding the scarlet long veil equally spread behind Hei Anjing.
Chun Hongyun-Jun held Hei Anjing’s hand with a smile imprinted on their faces as he escorted him to walk the long entourage and climb up the mountain towards the peak where the ceremony is awaiting them.
“Jing’er I owed you too much not only in this world but in our past which I had forgotten myself. In the future, everything you want I will give it to you. Even if it is everything itself.” Chun Hongyun-Jun said,
Hei Anjing smiled at him and replied, “I don’t need the world. You just need to give yourself to me. A’Xia you are what I wanted the most.”
“Good. Then I, Ye Xiajie, will give myself to Jing’er,” said Chun Hongyun-Jun with a smile.
He said his reincarnation’s name and made a promise. After all, the man called Xia Jieye would cease to exist the moment he merges with his main soul. Regardless, this God of Void had no regrets because merging with Ye Xiajie means being forever with his beloved and that is all he asks for.
Hei Anjing. “You gave yourself to me. A’Xia you are mine now. No takebacks!”
“It’s yours. Only yours, Jing’er”, said Chun Hongyun-Jun as he climbed the stairs holding on to the only treasure he will have for his eternity.
On this day, the most luxurious Dao Ceremony happened. The guest list was filled with all the important people in all three realms. This includes the Immortal Race, the Dragon Race, the Demon Race, the Human race, and all other races which had good relationships with the Heavenly Empire.
All of the Cultivators on the list attended this wedding and most of them were Venerable Lords of their own race. The venue is filled with people that usually will not gather but all came today just for this ceremony. After all, this is the once-in-a-lifetime wedding between the Esteemed Chun Hongyun-Jun and King Wuan’s Union.
Upon the arrival of the most awaited couple, everyone looked their way. There are lots of young generations among the guests and no matter what their gender or race is, the moment they saw the high-value appearance of the couple they couldn’t hold back their eyes from turning into heart shapes.
After all, Hei Anjing is the most beautiful Male God that ever existed and Chun Hongyun-Jun is the most Handsome and stoic idol of the three realms. Seeing them together greatly complements each as their usual indifference would fade in the presence of the other.
The eyes of the guests were paid no jeed by the protagonists of the Dao Ceremony. With their ten fingers intertwined with each other, they climbed to the peak of the mountain and stood at the highest ground facing the heavens. They’ve exchanged the same vows they’ve said in the mateship ceremony.
Hei Anjing and Xia Jieye once again recite the rites of marriage they had vowed before. They recited these lines for the first in a Primitive World in which they become mates. The second time they declared these vows is in that Supernatural World in which they got married to their soul and became Soul Bound. Finally, the last requirement for the Trial of Marriage, the Dao Ceremony, is a marriage between cultivators with the Heavens as the witness.
They recited the oath imprinted on their hearts for the last time. This time, their lives, hearts, souls,l and everything else would be shared with each other and a long one of them is alive the other half can be revived no matter what. The only way to kill them is to eliminate them together and leave no traces behind. Not even a single ash behind, failure to do so will be reborn no matter how many times they die.
The Oaths of Marriage, [Our body and soul together as one. Our flesh and blood are shared as one. To protect and love each other in this eternity. We ask the heavens and earth to witness this bond that will be everlasting until the end of time. Against time and space. Even against the world and everything that may block us. We shall share everything between the two of us. Only two as one.]
Heaven as a witness blessed their union and qi rain in the form of golden snowflakes. Everyone in the three realms was gifted with such an opportunity. Regardless of their race, this is a blessing the Heavens bestowed on everyone in the realm.
With the help of this qi, the Immortal Empress, the former King of Devils, and the Demon Queen all broke through to the threshold of the Primordial God Stage in cultivation. While the Immortal Emperor solidified his unstable cultivation for staying in the lower world for too long. The hidden injuries in his body which he made himself to prevent his final ascension slowly heals under the golden snowflakes.
With a more stable state of mind, the Immortal Emperor is not capable of leaving this world anytime to enter an even higher realm. But in the end, he chose not to do so and the heavenly laws of the world pardoned his stay.
Before the day was up, the Dao Companionship Ceremony was completed. Following this day, the three realms and the whole cultivation world became aware that the Gods of Judgment and Punishment were legitimate Dao Companions who had successfully fulfilled the ceremonies under the heavens.
During the ceremony under the sky of all three realms, a special thing happened. Golden-colored snowflakes fell down from the sky and each snowflake was filled with the purest qi which helped cultivators to break through to the next stage of their level.
Those who were in the foundation stage breakthrough to the Golden Core. Those in the Golden Core break through to the Nascent soul. Those in the Nascent Soul stage level up to the spirit severing stage etc. In short, it was a gift from the immortal realm as the heavenly tribulation clouds announced congratulations on the unification between the God of Punishment and the God of Judgment.
Xia Jieye and Hei Anjing stay in this world for a longer period of time. They stay together during the final few million years of the world’s existence. Xia Jieye and Hei Anjing remained in each other’s arms right up to the end of the world. With their family and loved ones, they cherished their twilight years in that world.
