Chapter 483: The Ceremony is Complete

This wedding banquet was unprecedentedly grand for Jingchuan City…

It wasn't because of how luxurious the wedding was, but because the people attending were all major figures.

Even City Lord Lu Zhiming and the Old Ancestor of the Murong Family had to refer to themselves as Juniors and bow and scrape here.

The Long Family was also generous, setting up thousands of tables for the banquet outside the Long Mansion to invite the people of Jingchuan City…

Inside the Long Mansion, the seating at each table was now carefully arranged…

People from families of nearby small cities were arranged in the main courtyard of the Long Mansion…

Families with some status and a consistently good relationship with the Long Mansion were arranged in the corridors…

Only the people from the Jixian Sect and the Elders of Shengdan City were arranged in the main hall…

The two clan Elders the Long Family had sent to Jingchuan City to find Xiao Fan had also returned.

The Long Mansion was busy, and these clan Elders were even busier; each of them had to entertain the guests properly.

The one with the hardest task was the Second Elder… the table he was entertaining consisted precisely of alchemists from Shengdan City… each one was so arrogant they ignored everyone.

Huangfu Cheng's status was extremely high; he sat at a table with Sect Master Wu Xinjue, Kong Ping, and the Grand Elder of the Jixian Sect…

Song Zhengping and Huangfu Cheng were also well-acquainted; although he was the Grand Elder of the Jixian Sect, he also held the title of Elder in Shengdan City.

Sitting together, there was no lack of conversation among them.

Jiang Yushan, He Yutang, Elder Shi Pin, Elder Shi Ji, Bei Ming, and the others sat together, their Faces beaming with smiles as they chatted and laughed.

Only He Yutang was unhappy… he felt as if someone was missing, but for the life of him, he couldn't remember who it was.

Long Anhai walked between the tables, responsible for hosting and offering toasts…

As a Huaqi Realm expert, offering toasts in such a setting was truly awkward… but fortunately, everyone knew he was the bride's biological father, so they still gave him plenty of Face.

Even the people at the Shengdan City table were the same…

Regarding wedding gifts, since these people had come in a hurry, the group from Shengdan City gave either Medicinal Pills or Ancient Medical Texts…

As for the people from the Jixian Sect, Bei Ming and Elder Cao Mu gave two High Grade Profound Rank Magical Artifacts.

He Yutang gave a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique…

Elder Shi Pin and Elder Shi Ji each gave two simple Magic Arrays, the kind that could be used directly…

Sect Master Wu Xinjue and Sect Master Xu Yongnian were more direct, each giving five million Spirit Stones as a wedding gift.

Of course, these things had nothing to do with the Long Family; they were for Xiao Fan and Long Miaoyin.

The other small families gave very meager gifts: Spiritual Plants and Spirit Medicines worth a few thousand Spirit Stones…

Some ancient jade and emeralds, silks and brocades, and so on…

Ancestor Long Zizai sat in a high seat, dressed in a red robe with a solemn expression and no hint of a smile; he was there as an Elder, and Xiao Fan and Long Miaoyin would soon bow to him.

Sitting in the main seat, Ancestor Long Zizai was actually on pins and needles; everyone below was a major figure, yet here he was, a mere Great Perfection Tongtian Realm cultivator… it would be strange if he felt comfortable.

“The auspicious hour has arrived! Welcome the newlyweds!”

The Long Mansion's butler shouted at the top of his lungs, fearing his voice wouldn't be loud enough.

Everyone who was talking stopped, their eyes turning toward the two sides of the door outside the main hall.

Xiao Fan walked in from the left, dressed in a brocade red robe with a dragon pattern carved on the chest, a gold crown on his head, and a gold-threaded python belt around his waist; a smile appeared on his Face as he entered the hall.

Long Miaoyin was in a red phoenix robe… wearing a phoenix crown, though she was covered by a Red Bridal Veil; however, her world-toppling beauty could still be seen through the veil as she took elegant steps and entered the hall supported by Long Caiwei.

Xiao Fan and Long Miaoyin entered the hall from different directions, the man as handsome as a jade tree in the wind, the woman as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal…

Drawing the gaze of everyone present, Xiao Fan reached out and grasped Long Miaoyin's small, jade-white hand…

Then, under Long Caiwei's envious and jealous gaze that almost moved her to tears, the two walked toward the center of the main hall.

Ancestor Long Zizai unconsciously shifted his body; the main event was starting, and he had to maintain his composure…

Everyone around cast gazes of blessing, looking at the newlyweds.

Although they had already been married before, in a true sense, this was the first time they were holding a wedding ceremony.

Xiao Fan's heart pounded wildly; he hadn't expected to be this nervous now…

Long Miaoyin was the same, the blush on her cheeks reaching all the way to her ears…

The two walked up to Ancestor Long Zizai; he shifted unconsciously, looking at Xiao Fan and Long Miaoyin with a kind smile…

“First bow to Heaven and Earth!”

Xiao Fan and Long Miaoyin turned and bowed toward the cloudless sky outside.

“Second bow to the Elders.”

Xiao Fan and Long Miaoyin turned and bowed toward the kind-faced Ancestor Long Zizai…

“Husband and wife bow to each other!”

Xiao Fan and Long Miaoyin turned and looked into each other's eyes…

Even through the Red Bridal Veil, Xiao Fan could still clearly see her world-toppling Face.

From the time Xiao Fan was insignificant and on the verge of death, the two had been together until now…

This affection was something Xiao Fan could never fully repay in his lifetime.

Tears flowed uncontrollably from Long Miaoyin's eyes, her Face brimming with a happy smile…

Xiao Fan smiled too; to hold her hand and grow old together…

Under everyone's gaze, the two bowed deeply!

“The ceremony is complete!”

From then on, they were husband and wife—true husband and wife.

The guests in the hall were all smiles…

At that moment, a spatial rift suddenly appeared in the Void Realm outside…
