Chapter 599: The Peculiar Ways of Heaven's Dao
Chapter 599: The Peculiar Ways of Heaven's Dao
"It seems that without us having to appear and ask, he has already agreed."
Four more heavenly deities remained hidden in the air, refraining from questioning.
Just from those few, they had obtained answers from Yan Yuqing.
Yan Yuqing, with his head lowered, dared not look up at the majestic deities above in the sky.
His heart was filled with a mix of excitement and anxiety, as the teachings of the Four Books and Five Classics on benevolence and righteousness were long forgotten.
Recalling his encounter with Bamboo Tune, he remembered her elegant appearance at a gathering, which had caught his attention.
There had been teasing suggestions for him to take Bamboo Tune as his concubine.
Indeed, he had harbored such thoughts.
However, considering Bamboo Tune's family background, she could only be a concubine, and as he wasn't considering taking one at the time, he dismissed the idea.
Now, with these deities asking him this question, even if he were a pig, he knew what to do.
He was relieved that he hadn't married yet.
Simultaneously, a wild ambition sprouted within him, as he knelt on the ground.
What does it matter if she's a merchant's daughter, or if her ancestors weren't officials?
This is a divine matchmaking!
"Since you like her, then... marry her right here, I'll bring the Registrar's Office to you." The Colossal Spirit spoke in a deep voice.
A loud crash echoed, and a tall building descended from the sky.
The officials' sons, witnessing this, knelt on the ground, trembling with awe.
"A miracle!"
"A miracle!"
"Is this where the deities reside?"
Yan Yuqing's head spun.
"I'll leave everything to your arrangements, Your Highness," Yan Yuqing trembled.
However, the Colossal Spirit paused, as if remembering something, and said, "But, we should also ask for Bamboo Tune's opinion. You go home and ask your parents if they agree."
With that, the Colossal Spirit and the other deities vanished.
The world became brighter.
The young masters on the ground shivered, feeling a sense of unreality, as if what had just happened was all a dream.
"Was I dreaming just now?"
"I think we all had the same dream."
"No, it's not a dream, look at that building... the Registrar's Office!"
The young masters turned to Yan Yuqing, their faces alight with excitement. Some of the smarter ones had made a connection.
"Congratulations, Yan Gongzi!"
"Brother Yan, congratulations!"
The rest was simple.
Yan Yuqing, following the Colossal Spirit's instructions, returned home.
And thus, the following conversation ensued.
"Father, I want to marry Bamboo Tune, with the proper rituals!"
"Who is this Yan Yuqing? A merchant's family? Nonsense!"
"Father, I truly like her, and more importantly, this time it's different. Their matchmaker is..."
"Even if the current Emperor were the matchmaker, he couldn't humiliate our Yan family!"
"Father, their matchmaker is a deity!"
"What are you talking about? Wait, there was a celestial phenomenon today..."
On the other side, Bamboo Tune, at home, was filled with anticipation.
She held a piece of broken jade, her thoughts in turmoil. As a young lady, her heart raced with anxiety.
Did Yan Gongzi agree?
Would he dislike her for being a merchant's daughter?
Just then, Qi Yuan asked her in the group chat.
"I've asked someone to inquire about Yan Yuqing, and he said he likes you. It seems you're both heading in the same direction. Congratulations!"
Bamboo Tune's heart leaped with joy at these words, and her cheeks flushed.
"Really?"
"Yes, I've asked him to go home and seek his parents' approval. If they agree, he'll come to propose to you. Are you willing to marry Yan Yuqing and become his wife?" Qi Yuan asked again.
He never matched people randomly.
"What?" Bamboo Tune was overwhelmed with joy, "I am!"
Without hesitation, she agreed.
Qi Yuan wasn't surprised.
After all, Bamboo Tune had a romantic mind.
At that moment, the others in the group were also following these messages with interest.
Especially Wu Santong, who wanted to see if his master was truly as powerful as rumored.
Time passed, and Bamboo Tune sent a message in the group.
"Ahhhh, the Yan family is here to propose! Origin Venerable, thank you!"
"How did you convince them? The Yan family is a powerful clan!" Bamboo Tune was both delighted and shocked.
She hadn't expected Yan Yuqing to admire her and take her as his wife.
"What do you mean by convince? I just sent someone to ask, and it turned out he liked you too. He said he liked you," Qi Yuan replied.
He never forced anyone and preferred to persuade with reason.
Of course, for enemies, he didn't bother with reason and simply eliminated them.
In the group, Zuo Jingyun's expression changed slightly, and he murmured, "He truly is an extra-dimensional demon."
...
On Mount Wanshen, Qi Yuan stared at the information in the Multiverse Mirror, his eyes filled with uncertainty.
"Several Divine Fetuses have entered, and they haven't encountered any dangers. Should I go in and take a look, perhaps enjoy a feast?"
Qi Yuan contemplated.
Now, it was time to assist Bamboo Tune in fulfilling her wish.
He should enter the world where Bamboo Tune resided, start gathering followers, harvesting resources, and perfecting his Divine Kingdom.
If he were to have Bamboo Tune and Yan Yuqing help him with these tasks, the process would likely be slow.
With the backward labor system of the feudal dynasty, who knows how long it would take for them to build a divine statue and temple for him.
Moreover, Qi Yuan had always been socially anxious and didn't want to trouble others.
The people already led a hard life, and it wouldn't be right to burden them with corvee labor to construct temples and engage in large-scale construction projects.
Just as he released the information about entering the Great Void, Wind Wild Divine Lord approached him with a word of caution: "Your Highness, please be careful. If there's any danger, immediately return to the Mountain of Ten Thousand Gods."
"I understand," Qi Yuan replied calmly.
Wind Wild had also kept him informed about various matters concerning the different world planes.
The Multiverse Mirror connected numerous world planes, and many of them had Plane Spirits.
These Plane Spirits, when transferred to the Immortal World, became the Dao.
However, they were somewhat different from the Dao of the Immortal World. Most Plane Spirits possessed their own consciousness and wisdom.
"Bamboo Tune, when the time comes, I'll come to enjoy your feast. Don't refuse me," Qi Yuan said to Bamboo Tune, his mind already made up.
Bamboo Tune's face lit up with joy upon hearing this: "Okay."
Great Void Kingdom.
Gossip and rumors began to spread.
"Have you heard? The Minister of Rites' son is going to marry a merchant's daughter as his primary wife!"
"Impossible! He's the son of the Minister of Rites!"
Logically, shouldn't the Minister of Rites be the most particular about etiquette?
"It's said that the Emperor is furious and wants to strip Minister Yan of his position."
"It seems the wedding is today."
"There will be a celebration."
Currently, undercurrents were stirring in Chang'an City.
The Minister of Rites' son marrying a merchant's daughter as his primary wife in the Great Void Kingdom was a direct violation of social norms and a disregard for rituals and laws.
What's more, the one breaking these laws was the son of the Minister of Rites.
No wonder everyone was shocked.
Even the great Confucian scholars were speaking out against this marriage.
However, this didn't affect the love-obsessed Bamboo Tune in the slightest.
Yan Yuqing was also minimally influenced, as he had already made up his mind.
At this moment, outside the Yan family residence, a joyous atmosphere prevailed.
Although the wedding was unconventional, many of those who had joined Yan Yuqing in shooting the Water Monkey and their families chose to attend.
"Greetings, sir. May I ask your name?" The Yan family servant couldn't help but glance at the young man beside Qi Yuan a few times.
This young man was even more handsome than the young master.
"Yes, I'm Qi Yuan. I'm here at the invitation of Bamboo Tune to attend the feast."
Qi Yuan presented his gift.
The servant couldn't help but praise upon seeing the calligraphy: "Sir, you're also a calligrapher."
He was actually a bit surprised.
The young master's wedding had caused quite a stir in the city, with even the current Emperor reportedly furious and wanting to dismiss the Minister from his post.
For this reason, the scholars and Confucian gentlemen were avoiding the wedding, and none of them attended.
Clearly, they considered Qi Yuan to be a scholar.
Led by the servant, Qi Yuan proceeded to the main hall for the feast.
Although Yan Yuqing and Bamboo Tune's marriage went against rituals and laws, the Minister of Rites' family still divided the feast into three areas: the main hall, the middle hall, and the lower hall.
Qi Yuan casually took a seat, occasionally drawing curious glances due to his exceptional appearance.
After sending the message, Qi Yuan's figure disappeared in an instant.
In the hall, the guests who were eating were momentarily stunned.
"Hmm, there was just a handsome young man next to me, where did he go?"
"Who was he?"
Everyone was confused, doubting their own eyes.
However, those who had gone to kill the Water Monkey, were overjoyed.
"Could it be that the person just now was the one Sister-in-law mentioned... a Divine Being?"
They, who were already tied to the Yan family, knew a lot.
They knew that it was Bamboo Rhythm who had called for Yan Yuqing.
And those terrifying deities were all subordinates of the one named Origin Venerable.
As Qi Yuan left, after about ten breaths, Yan Yuqing and the Deputy Minister of Rites, among others, rushed out, their faces filled with urgency.
"Where is the divine being?"
Not seeing Qi Yuan, Yan Yuqing felt a little disappointed.
...
"Is this a Plane Spirit?"
Qi Yuan looked at the Plane Spirit, his gaze calm, yet with a hint of curiosity.
"This Plane Spirit is quite powerful."
Qi Yuan gave his assessment.
In the Immortal World, when the heavenly path descended, the Great Venerable could devour.
But this Plane Spirit was not something a Yin Spirit could handle.
"According to the system of the Mountain of Gods, it is likely to be in the Divine Decree Realm."
The so-called Divine Decree Realm was similar to the concept of 'words become law', creating rules.
And this Plane Spirit, the rules it created were that the heir-born were superior, rules were paramount, and love was also paramount.
the minute.
So, all sorts of strange things happened in the Great Void Country.
Just then, a rebuking voice rang out.
"How dare you, seeing me and not kneeling!"
It was the Plane Spirit's instinctive roar.
Seeing Qi Yuan, a True God, it wanted to suppress and devour him.
The Plane Spirit, native to this world, was devoured by this new Plane Spirit.
Now, it was occupying the new ruler of the roost.
"Why should I kneel to you?" Qi Yuan asked calmly.
In an instant, various divine lights overflowed from the Plane Spirit's body, rushing towards Qi Yuan.
Amidst this, Qi Yuan felt the power of the Divine Decree.
"I am the heir-born Plane Spirit, the lord of this realm. All living beings, upon seeing me, kneel!"
The Plane Spirit instinctively spoke.
Qi Yuan did not resist, allowing the Divine Decree to fall upon his body.
In that moment, his mind seemed to give birth to many thoughts.
He was born of a concubine, he should kneel to the heir-born.
It seemed he had fallen in love with the Plane Spirit, wanting to prove his love by committing suicide, showing the Plane Spirit that he was the one who loved it the most.
"So, is this what influences the beings of this world, locking their souls with a key?" Qi Yuan murmured.
If it weren't for the Colossal Spirit and the other deities appearing, shouting and rebuking, affecting the "Divine Decree" of this place.
Perhaps, Yan Yuqing wouldn't have the courage to marry a merchant's daughter.
Those people wouldn't have attended the wedding either.
Criticizing at the Yan residence, writing satirical songs, that was what most people would do.
Qi Yuan really wanted to say, 'Autumn Elegance is getting married, and you're singing and dancing here.'
Qi Yuan shook his head, and in an instant, the strange thoughts in his head disappeared.
"I really like your Divine Decree, it will soon be mine."
Although he was in the Divine Lord Realm, his realm was constructed by the Unique Palace.
Encountering the Divine Lord Realm, he dared to challenge it, let alone this Plane Spirit in the Divine Decree Realm.
"Concubine-born can also not kneel to the heir-born!"
Qi Yuan spoke, and divine light appeared on his body.
He took a step forward, and a lotus flower bloomed beneath his feet.
"Are rulers and generals not of noble birth?"
In an instant, another lotus flower bloomed, radiant and vibrant.
"Emperors take turns, it could be my turn tomorrow."
Qi Yuan, though not in the Divine Decree Realm, his words were like the sharpest of blades.
Crack!
Crack!
The rule chains on the Plane Spirit's body, with Qi Yuan's words, broke one by one.
"No!" The Plane Spirit instinctively roared.
It was puzzled, as it was the heir-born Plane Spirit, yet in the Divine Decree Realm, its power far exceeded that of the Divine Lord Realm being before it.
In the end, with a miserable howl, this Plane Spirit finally fell silent.
The Plane Spirit's Divine Decree condensed into a Rule Decree, falling into Qi Yuan's hands.
Qi Yuan looked at the Rule Decree, his eyes revealing curiosity.
"This Rule Decree seems to be able to reduce the intelligence of enemies."
If he cultivated this Rule Decree to an extremely profound level, he could say to the Dao Lord, 'You are concubine-born, kneel before me!'
Suddenly, Qi Yuan felt a twinge of melancholy.
"Without this Divine Decree in this world, I wonder if it will be better or worse."
"It's fine, if they have faith in me, it will definitely be a good thing!"
"I am Lawful Good, after all."
With Qi Yuan's murmur, in an instant, in the Great Void Country, everyone was stunned, as if they had lost something important.
