Although Wei Qiuling mentioned that when cultivators become Taoist companions, it doesn't need to be as complex as a mortal wedding,

yet, after they forged the life-and-death contract as Taoist companions, Wei Qiuling suddenly proposed having a real wedding with Shen Wen'an.

Regarding this, Shen Wen'an was quite confused.

Wei Qiuling, however, explained with a smile, "I have no more worldly ties in this mortal world, yet my junior brother is still within it."

"Now that we are Taoist companions, although my parents didn't say much, deep down, they probably hope that we can be like mortal couples."

After thinking for a moment, Shen Wen'an nodded slightly, "Then let's go with Senior Sister's idea."

A slight smile appeared on Wei Qiuling's face.

As Taoist companions, with their souls intertwined, she could feel Shen Wen'an's pure heart. Along with the unintentional expressions of Shen Yuan and Hu Yufen, she formed this idea.

The following day, she found Shen Yuan and Hu Yufen and expressed her thoughts.

Upon hearing this, both Shen Yuan and Hu Yufen were somewhat surprised.

But they quickly understood that Wei Qiuling was accommodating them, immediately agreeing with smiles.

Front yard.

With a cheerful demeanor, Shen Yuan found Shen Wenxing and informed him of the matter.

"Qiuling is the chief of Luoxia Mountain and the future sect leader. This wedding should be held ceremoniously."

"We don't want her to feel mistreated."

After listening, Shen Wenxing smiled and cupped his hands, "Ah Die, rest assured, I will prepare immediately."

...

In May, a grand wedding was held at Black Water Pool.

The union of Shen Wen'an and Wei Qiuling as Taoist companions had already spread in a small circle within the cultivation realm. The sudden news of a wedding indeed shocked those unawareness within the noble family powers.

After all, the Shen Family is native to Yangnao Land, while Wei Qiuling is a true prodigy of the Immortal Sect, the chief of Luoxia Mountain, and a future candidate for the sect leader.

For the noble family powers in Yangnao Land, their union is akin to a country bumpkin rising to marry a princess of the imperial family.

Yet, the people from the Immortal Sect wouldn't see it that way.

As for Shen Wen'an's potential, it had already spread among various Immortal Sects in Qishan since his battle against four Fetal Breathing stage cultivators from Hundred Beasts Mountain and his successful retreat.

A young Fetal Breathing genius in the Sword Dao, able to potentially become a Sword Immortal in the future as long as he does not fall.

Immortal Sects like Vajra Sect and Profound Water Sect, which are on good terms with the Shen Family, are extremely envious of Luoxia Mountain for bringing such a limitless potential prodigy into their ranks.

However, this wedding also unsettled certain Immortal Sect families.

Such as the Hundred Beasts Mountain and Qiyun Valley.

The discomfort from Hundred Beasts Mountain stemmed from a long-standing feud. Now, their union means Shen Family gains a strong ally, and dealing with the Shen Family in the future also involves consideration of Luoxia Mountain.

As for Qiyun Valley's discomfort, it's naturally due to their previously good relations with Luoxia Mountain.

Yet, Luoxia Mountain has repeatedly befriended a "traitor" the Qiyun Valley has expelled from the sect.

Because of this, Qiyun Valley has secretly complained to Luoxia Mountain, hoping for change, but didn't expect they'd directly have their sect's chief become Taoist companions with someone they see as a "traitor".

This makes Qiyun Valley feel betrayed.

In Fengxian County, within the courtyard.

Li Heshan quietly looked at the gilded invitation card in his hand.

When Shen Wen'an and Wei Qiuling forged their life-and-death bond as Taoist companions, he wasn't informed to witness it.

Now, for their marriage, he was sent an invitation card.

As he gazed at the invitation in his hand, Li Heshan felt deeply conflicted.

Shen Wen'an was personally brought into Qiyun Valley by him back in the day.

He witnessed Shen Wen'an joining Hidden Cloud Courtyard.

He watched as his talent emerged, then saw him gradually ostracized by his sect until he was ultimately expelled.

Now, what should have been a Sword Dao prodigy belonging to Qiyun Valley has achieved so much for Luoxia Mountain.

With a slight sigh, Li Heshan took out a Communication Stone, initially intending to report the matter to his master Yun Zhongzi, but after hesitating, he directly contacted Pei Yuwan, far away in Qiyun Valley.

Upon receiving the news, Pei Yuwan's expression was dazed for a long time. A pang of sourness suddenly rose in her heart.

"Junior Sister Pei, this is a happy event. You should inform Master Pei."

In the Communication Stone, Li Heshan's voice came through.

Pei Yuwan came to her senses, but unbeknownst to her, a tear had already rolled down her cheek.

She smiled mournfully as she wiped away the tear marks on her face.

"Ah Die should be very happy to know."

"Senior Brother Heshan, I've achieved Qi Cultivation Perfection. Sect Leader's uncle said I should select a strand of Innate Spiritual Qi within the sect soon to quickly break through to Fetal Breathing."

On the other end of the Communication Stone, Li Heshan heard this and remained silent for a long time.

The only strand of Middle Grade Innate Spiritual Qi within Qiyun Valley has already been used by him, and now only some Lower Grade Innate Spiritual Qi remains.

Pei Yuwan is still young and can wait for a few more years. It wouldn't be too late to break through with Lower Grade Innate Spiritual Qi if nothing better is found by then.

He couldn't comprehend what his master was thinking now.

"Congratulations to Junior Sister Pei."

Li Heshan offered a word of congratulations before ending the transmission.

Pei Yuwan sighed softly, then got up and went to the back mountain of Qiyun Valley.

A winding bamboo path led directly to a small courtyard.

In the courtyard, Pei Zhao sat cross-legged on a large green rock in the bamboo forest, cradling a scroll that he was diligently reading.

Pei Yuwan walked over slowly, suppressing the thoughts in her heart, and said with a gentle smile:

"Father."

Seeing his daughter arriving, Pei Zhao slowly set down the scroll in his hand and stood up with a smile.

"Senior Brother Heshan just sent word of some news."
