Chapter 1079: Heavenly Emperor's Wedding Ceremony

Wei Suifeng watched Long Qilin, Yan'er, and the others leave the ghost ship, his heart still filled with worry.

In this era, he had already traveled back to the Dragon Han era, following Ling Tianzun's hairpin, becoming the commander of the Imperial Forest Army of that time.

The empress's assassination and the Imperial Forest Army's time travel incidents all occurred during this period!

The Dragon Han era at this time was fraught with peril and undercurrents, culminating in an astonishingly fierce battle.

This was the battle marking the death of the Celestial Emperor's reincarnated body!

Human Celestials such as Yun Tianzun, Ling Tianzun, Hao Tianzun, Yue Tianzun, and Huo Tianzun led a group of masters. Meanwhile, Madam Yuanmu transformed into Jue Wuchen, killed the Celestial Emperor's reincarnated body, and seized the Celestial Emperor's physical form, bringing an end to the era of ancient gods ruling the world.

Later generations of Celestials and deities, including Hong Tianzun, Xiao Tianzun, Gong Tianzun, Emperor Lang Xuan, Ancestral God King, Qiang Tianzun, and Yan Tianzun, also rose during this period, gradually gaining control of the Celestial Alliance.

This was the most magnificent and tumultuous period of the Dragon Han era!

Although Wei Suifeng hadn't fully experienced this history, only its first half, he shivered whenever he recalled the dangers of that period.

Long Qilin, Yan'er, and the others walked out of the mist. Yan'er, with the halo behind her head shimmering, asked, "Fatty Long, what did Emperor Yunluo mean by that earlier remark?"

Long Qilin rumbled, "The Great Cult Master wants us to act like that 'despicable couple' and steal the Lapis Lazuli Azure Sky Bell. That treasure grants every wish and can protect us."

Yan'er's eyes widened. She stammered, "Are we the 'despicable couple' that Prince Youming curses every day?"

"Possibly."

Long Qilin was also somewhat uncertain, muttering, "Cult Master Wei isn't entirely reliable. He probably can't send us back 600,000 years. Perhaps someone else might have stolen the Lapis Lazuli Azure Sky Bell."

As they emerged from the mist, Long Qilin transformed into a sturdy young man with a qilin head and human body, carrying a lantern. Yan'er also turned into a plump girl, holding a lantern. The six Celestial Dragons transformed into dragon-headed human males and females, each carrying a lantern and looking around.

Qin Mu, meanwhile, sat in the halo behind Yan'er's head, opening his eyes dazedly.

Lanterns glowed on the Dragon Blood Treasure Tree behind him.

At this moment, he saw that the Primordial Tree was larger than ever before.

The Primordial Tree's canopy almost completely obscured the Primordial Realm. Countless leaves blocked the azure sky, hiding the sun, moon, and stars!

Qin Mu struggled to open his third eye between his brows, looking up at the higher sky. There, layers of Heavenly Dao enveloped the firmament—it was Heavenly Duke concealing the Primordial Realm!

"The battle to slay the Celestial Emperor has already begun..."

In the Primordial Realm, a tremendous upheaval was quietly unfolding.

It was the wedding day of the Celestial Emperor's reincarnated body and Jue Wuchen. Distinguished guests filled the hall, and the atmosphere was joyous. In this life, the Celestial Emperor's reincarnated body had become an exceptionally handsome young man named Chu Xiao, who came from an illustrious and wealthy family in the Primordial Realm.

Chu Xiao was generous and philanthropic, with extremely high cultivation and astonishing combat power, rising to prominence among the younger generation in the Primordial Realm. His union with Jue Wuchen was also a celebrated tale in the Primordial Realm.

Chu Xiao also held a very high status among humans and had many friends, including many among the demigods.

Jue Wuchen was renowned as the Primordial Realm's foremost beauty, with countless admirers worldwide. Even Yun Tianzun, who had only taken one official empress, considered taking her as a concubine.

However, the Empress of the Soaring Cloud Celestial Court was a fiery woman, rumored to have beaten Yun Tianzun until he begged for mercy, which dispelled his idea of taking Jue Wuchen as a concubine.

There were also rumors that Yin Tianzi had tried to seduce Jue Wuchen, only to be brutally beaten by Hao Tianzun, who made things difficult for Yin Tianzi, causing a rift between the two brothers.

Yet, Hao Tianzun also failed to win the beauty's heart. Rumor had it that Emperor Lang Xuan and Hao Tianzun, despite their deep friendship, had a fierce fight over her, leading to a complete rupture in their relationship, becoming sworn enemies.

It was said that Emperor Lang Xuan and Ancestral God King were also vying for Jue Wuchen. Furthermore, there was a rumor that Heavenly Duke himself had descended and reincarnated as a mortal to pursue her. However, because Ancestral God King was his son, Heavenly Duke was too embarrassed to compete for the same woman with his own son, so he gave up.

Chu Xiao's ability to overcome all rivals and win the beauty's heart impressed all the gods in the Primordial Realm, making it a legendary tale.

On the day Chu Xiao and Jue Wuchen were married, love rivals like Celestial Emperor Yun, Hao Tianzun, and Emperor Lang Xuan did not attend because they were not the groom, instead sending congratulatory gifts.

However, Chu Xiao still had many friends; for instance, Yue Tianzun and Ancestral God King personally came to offer their congratulations.

On this joyous day, with the hall filled with guests, the atmosphere was lively. Just as Chu Xiao and Jue Wuchen were bowing to each other, a sudden turn of events occurred!

As Chu Xiao and Jue Wuchen bowed to each other, Jue Wuchen softly pressed her palm onto the crown of Chu Xiao's head. The Return to Ruin divine ability transformed into a vast abyss, plunging into his mind!

"My darling, your day has come," Jue Wuchen across from him giggled.

Simultaneously, many guests who had just been laughing and chatting suddenly erupted, attacking Chu Xiao all at once!

Blades flashed and swords glinted in the hall; in an instant, the wedding venue became a battlefield.

Chu Xiao immediately realized he had been ambushed. Although he had fallen victim to Jue Wuchen's scheme, he was, after all, the Celestial Emperor's reincarnated body, with the Celestial Emperor's primordial spirit hidden within him.

This primordial spirit contained only two souls, but it represented the peak of combat power in the world.

Dressed in a crimson robe, he flicked his sleeve, and countless attacking guests were swept into its folds.

He shook his sleeve, and blood and shattered bones gushed out, forming rivers of blood!

At this moment, Yue Tianzun and Ancestral God King appeared one on each side. Yue Tianzun held a peach blossom; with a gentle blow, the petals drifted, and Chu Xiao's body instantly disintegrated like falling peach blossoms.

"Yue Tianzun!"

Chu Xiao roared, forcibly pulling his limbs back together. Just as he was about to reassemble them, Ancestral God King held the Great Luo, covering his head. The first-generation Dullahan spirit body possessed extraordinary combat power, stemming from Heavenly Duke's bloodline!

Within the Great Luo, forty-nine Heavenly Daos tightly bound the Celestial Emperor's primordial spirit, attempting to trap it within his body!

Chu Xiao, with disheveled hair, remained incredibly valiant. Even though the Celestial Emperor's primordial spirit was trapped, it was far from what Ancestral God King and Yue Tianzun could contend with.

In the first encounter, he severely injured Yue Tianzun and Ancestral God King and sent Jue Wuchen flying.

Boom—

The wedding hall exploded. Chu Xiao looked outside, where shadows flickered. His heart sank as he recognized Yun Tianzun, then Hao Tianzun, Ling Tianzun, and also Emperor Lang Xuan, Huo Tianzun, Yin Tianzi, and others.

Powerful beings, one after another, had been hidden there.

Chu Xiao's eyelids twitched. His gaze fell upon Hao Tianzun and Emperor Lang Xuan, and with a hint of sadness in his eyes, he laughed loudly, "Are you rebelling? Above, there's Heavenly Duke; below, there's Earth Mother; and Great Sun Star Lord monitors all heavens. Even Tu Bo is watching this scene!"

"Tu Bo won't come,"

A girl with horns on her head appeared and said blandly, "Uncle, Tu Bo still hates you."

Chu Xiao's gaze fixed on the girl's face. He gritted his teeth, "Xu, I raised you!"

This girl was none other than the later Xu Tianzun. She said indifferently, "Yes, Uncle. I remember everything you taught me. Tu Bo, I will replace him. As for you, I also wish to replace you."

"Heavenly Duke won't come either,"

Hao Tianzun said leisurely, "Father God, Earth Mother won't appear either. On the contrary, Earth Mother has suffered enough from Father God's tyranny over the years; she is quite willing to help us shield the Primordial Realm."

Chu Xiao looked up at the sky. It was already obscured by the Primordial Tree's canopy. No stars were visible, and the sun's rays could not penetrate to this location.

"A bunch of juniors... How powerful is my primordial spirit? With you all..."

Chu Xiao burst into laughter. Before his laughter faded, the crowd had already charged!
