Ch74.1 - Papaya Flavored Senior Brother Gong (12)

Translated by Hua Li ^_~

I have decided to update 2/week on Wednesday and Thursday. Since this is my first time updating…I got a bit delayed

Yue Qian, the leading disciple of Nanjian Sect, is getting married in one month. Nanjian Sect has sent out wedding invitations, gathering martial arts heroes from all over the world to converge at Nanjian!

This news, spread through the Bai Xiao Tower, instantly became a major event in the martial arts world.

“Senior Uncle Xia, you’ve arrived! My father is inside talking with Senior Elder Jiang, Master Ye, and Master Tang. I apologize for not being able to receive you personally. Please forgive the oversight.”

“The First Disciple of Sanqing Sect, Yu Qingtian, has arrived with several senior martial brothers!”

“We apologize for not welcoming you properly.”

“Haha, congratulations, Senior Yue!”

“Thank you, thank you! You’ve traveled a long way. Please come in.”

As the wedding approaches, Nanjian becomes exceptionally lively.

Yue Qian, the leading disciple of Nanjian Sect and a renowned figure in the martial arts world, this wedding is no less grand than the one between the sect leader’s son, Situ Bai, and the precious pearl of the Jiang Family. The festive atmosphere is evident everywhere.

On the eve of the wedding, most of the guests have arrived.

Following the custom of marrying into a distant family, Gou Liang has moved into a separate courtyard in the city of Nanjian the day before the wedding, just like Jiang Suxi. They are both waiting to be married into Nanjian at the wedding tomorrow.

Situ Shuang lovingly touches the phoenix coronet and crimson veil, expressing continuous admiration.

“Sister-in-law, in the future, when I get married, would you embroider the wedding dress for me? Would that be alright?”

She blinks her big eyes and looks earnestly at Gou Liang. The wedding dress is so magnificent, far more beautiful than the one her father had originally ordered at the Embroidery Tower. It’s hard to imagine how much more beautiful it is!

Gou Liang smiles at her and says, “What’s this? Have you already found a better marriage partner than your eldest senior brother?”

Situ Shuang blushes and says, “Sister-in-law, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Please forgive me.”

That is simply an embarrassing and regretful past. Let’s not bring it up!

While they are entangled in their conversation, a noise suddenly comes from outside the window. Situ Shuang, on guard, shouts, “Who is outside? What are you sneaking around for?”

After a moment of silence, before the person outside can speak, Gou Liang laughs first, “You go back first. I want to talk to your eldest senior brother.”

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

Situ Shuang is startled, but when she opens the door, she indeed sees Yue Qian dressed in black standing outside the window. She gives her disobedient eldest senior brother a glare, then closes the door and leaves.

“Gbc’a bqfc la.”

Yue Qian doesn’t deny it and nods, touching his face. Still somewhat disbelieving, he says, “Tomorrow, we’re getting married.”

Gou Liang pinches his finger and teasingly mocks him, “I don’t know how many times we’ve entered the bridal chamber together, but Hero Yue is only feeling shy now. Isn’t it a bit too late?”

Yue Qian helplessly replies, “Are you not nervous at all?”

“Why should I be nervous? Familiarity breeds comfort.”

“Familiarity? Have you married someone before?”

Yue Qian’s smiling face stiffens, and his brows and eyes instantly become sharp.

Gou Liang burst into laughter, “If I told you that we were deeply in love and warm in the bridal chamber in our past life, would you draw your sword and go back to that lifetime, demanding that the scoundrel release me immediately?”

Yue Qian only then realized that he was joking and relaxed. He asked, “Am I better than in our past life?”

Gou Liang pondered for a moment and replied, “Each has its own merits. He is more introverted than you and less playful.”

Yue Qian kissed him and said with certainty, “I will definitely love you more than he did.”

Gou Liang looked at the -100 affection points but remained silent with a smile.

“It’s getting late. I have to go back. Sleep early tonight, and I will come to pick you up early tomorrow morning.”

Yue Qian reluctantly said.

Gou Liang didn’t agree, “Come inside and accompany me, or else I won’t be able to sleep well.”

This time, Yue Qian firmly refused him, “We can’t spend the night together before the wedding. Be patient, my little troublemaker. Tomorrow morning, I will come down from the mountain early to take you home.”

“Fine…”

Gou Liang kissed him unhappily.

The two of them talked for a while, bidding farewell reluctantly. Just as Situ Shuang came to check the time, her disrespectful eldest senior brother was still there! Situ Shuang quickly chased him away, Hmph! breaking the rules and bringing bad luck!

Gou Liang watched him leave and received a notification from the system:

[System: Master, Nian Nujiao from the Hehuan Sect has arrived in the city of Nanjian.]

[Gou Liang: Ah… she had to come after all.]

[System: Master, you can actually ignore the affection points. The task progress will quickly reach its maximum.]

[Gou Liang: Do you really think so, Xiao Si? Then why did the task progress stop at 90% and not move? Hmph, he dares to say that he loves me more than Little Honey Tangerine, but I think his love for me is probably around +90 now.]

[System: Why is that? He is completely devoted to you.]

[Gou Liang sighed: But in his heart, there are still many concerns, such as his sect. If I were to make him choose between me and his master, I’m not confident that he would choose me.]

[System: Ah, so the target’s love for his master must be +100.]

[Gou Liang: Tired of work, hmm?]

[System: …Hehe, just kidding, dear Master. You’re becoming more and more petty. ┑(￣Д￣)┍]

Gou Liang didn’t bother arguing with it and put on a black robe, which he had made for Yue Qian, over his red attire. He quietly left the separate courtyard.

It’s time to meet some people.

On the day of the wedding.

A wedding procession descended from Nanjian in the morning light, with suona and drums, creating a lively atmosphere.

Outside the city of Nanjian, it was still too early, so Yue Qian led a group of young and handsome junior disciples to stroll through the streets of the city. They earned screams from the crowd and distributed wedding candies until it was almost time. They eagerly turned to the separate courtyard and escorted Gou Liang out.

“Xiao Keng’er, let’s go home.”

Yue Qian lifted Gou Liang in his arms, paying no attention to the wedding matchmaker behind them shouting, “The bridal veil, the bride hasn’t put on the bridal veil yet!” He strode out of the courtyard. The sedan chair was waiting nearby, but Yue Qian didn’t even glance at it. He placed Gou Liang on the horse and mounted it himself, holding Gou Liang in front of him, urging the horse forward.

“The bride is so beautiful!”

“Isn’t this against the proper customs?”

“Haha, why do martial artists care so much about these things!”

“Indeed, Yue Qian of Nanjian, a talented groom, and a beautiful bride. They are truly a match made in heaven.”

“Let’s go, even this old man will go to the foot of Nanjian to ask for a cup of wedding wine!”

The people of Nanjian who had come to watch were discussing animatedly. Many of them were holding wedding candies and were happy for the newlyweds.

“Xiao Keng’er, I’m so happy.”

Yue Qian couldn’t help but bury his face in Gou Liang’s hair, his eyes filled with joy as genuine and direct as that of a child.

Gou Liang gazed at him affectionately and relaxed his body against Yue Qian’s chest. He softly replied, “Me too.”

They could both feel each other’s rapid heartbeat. Contrary to what Gou Liang had said, he was not as calm and indifferent as he appeared. Yue Qian held him tightly and said, “From today onwards, you are my wife. I will love and cherish you for the rest of my life, remaining loyal to you.”

A strong surge of positive energy enveloped Gou Liang, and he smiled, dazzling and captivating.

He said, “If you dare to break your vows, I will abduct you, tie your hands and feet, and make sure you can’t go anywhere, so that you can only watch me for the rest of your life.”

Yue Qian smiled, “That’s what I want.”

“The auspicious moment has arrived—please let the bride and groom enter the ceremonial hall—”

The officiator’s voice rang out.

Gou Liang, who had been waiting for a while, gracefully leaped up, lightly landing on the red carpet. His unparalleled grace left a lasting impression on everyone who saw him.

He grabbed one end of the red carpet and swung it lightly, wrapping the other end around Yue Qian’s left arm. Gou Liang looked up at Yue Qian, who was sitting on a horse, and smiled, “Yue Qian, come here.”

Yue Qian kicked the horse and flew up, landing eagerly by Gou Liang’s side. He embraced Gou Liang’s waist and joyfully spun around in place, his laughter echoing through Nanjian. Then, holding Gou Liang with his lightness skill, he soared up the numerous steps, bypassed the towering mountain gate, and headed straight for the main hall, not willing to wait even for a moment!

Everyone could feel their urgency and joy at this moment.

Situ Zhangtian felt embarrassed seeing this and said to the other sect leaders, “My disciple is impudent, please forgive him.”

Everyone assured him that it was no big deal, and laughter filled the air.

“The first bow to the heavens and the earth, may your union be as everlasting as the universe!”

“The second bow to the parents, may your love be as deep as the Eastern Sea and your gratitude be as solid as a mountain!”

“The third bow to each other, may your hearts be in harmony forever!”

Gou Liang raised his head and looked into Yue Qian’s tender and affectionate eyes, unable to hold back his smile.

After the three bows, Yue Qian supported Gou Liang in his hands. The officiator announced, “The ceremony is complete! Guests, please celebrate together. With the golden groom and the jade bride, accompany them to the bridal chamber!”

If it weren’t for the little children holding lotus lanterns on either side, clinging to their clothes and imitating their steps, Yue Qian would have longed to hold Gou Liang and fly once again.

“Alright, alright, Situ Zhangtian thanks everyone for attending the wedding. Come, let’s proceed to the banquet. We won’t return until we’re drunk!”
