Chapter 445: Departure

At this moment, outside the Tiandi Yijian Ku, Yuwen Tuo and Duan Fengyun had already joined forces to draw out the appearance of Yuwen Tuo's future home.

To save time, the two of them joined forces to blast out the foundation directly.

By the time the soldiers arrived with a group of workers, Yuwen Tuo and Duan Fengyun had long since finished digging a large pit.

Yuwen Tuo pointed at the large pit and said:

"You all shall build it for me right on this large pit.

As for the materials, I have already sent people to deliver them.

Hurry up and get to work!"

After giving the instructions, just as Yuwen Tuo was preparing to leave with Duan Fengyun, Duan Fengyun looked at the Tiandi Yijian Ku behind him and said:

"Brother Yuwen, since we have already come to the Tiandi Yijian Ku, let me take you inside to have a look.

I think you should get to know your future neighbor."

"Oh?

There is still a neighbor of mine inside the Tiandi Yijian Ku?

I would like to see this for myself!"

Duan Fengyun led Yuwen Tuo into the Tiandi Yijian Ku, and Duan Fengyun shouted:

"Sword Spirit, come out quickly.

I am leaving, and from now on Yuwen Tuo will be your neighbor. I have brought him here to meet you; in the future, you two can spar with each other!"

As soon as Duan Fengyun's voice fell, the Sword Spirit walked out.

The Sword Spirit looked at Yuwen Tuo and said:

"Yuwen Tuo, we meet again!"

Listening to the Sword Spirit's voice, Yuwen Tuo thought for a long time and finally remembered where this familiar voice came from.

Yuwen Tuo spoke up:

"It is you!

When I retrieved the Xuanyuan Sword back then, it was you who was speaking to me!"

The Sword Spirit laughed:

"Correct, when you took away the Xuanyuan Sword back then, it was indeed this old man who was speaking to you.

As the Sword Spirit of the Tiandi Yijian Ku, I am responsible for guarding the Xuanyuan Sword for my master, Xuanyuan Huangdi.

Eighteen years ago, as a descendant of Xuanyuan Huangdi coming to take the Xuanyuan Sword, I naturally could not be too harsh on you.

Otherwise, do you think you could have obtained the Xuanyuan Sword at such a young age!"

Yuwen Tuo nodded; indeed, if it hadn't been for the mercy of the old man before him back then, how could he have obtained the Xuanyuan Sword.

If he hadn't obtained the Xuanyuan Sword at that time, he and his mother would have long since been beheaded.

Yuwen Tuo bowed deeply to the Sword Spirit and said:

"For what happened back then, I thank you, Senior.

If it were not for your mercy, there would be no Yuwen Tuo today."

The Sword Spirit waved his hand and laughed:

"I just said it, you are a descendant of Xuanyuan Huangdi, so naturally I should lend you a helping hand.

No need to thank me; if you become my neighbor, just come and talk to this old fellow more often.

If you have fine wine, you can also share it with me."

After the Sword Spirit finished speaking, he looked at Duan Fengyun and said:

"Little Master, you just said you are leaving?

Could it be that you have already completed the task given to you by the old master, Xuanyuan Huangdi?"

Duan Fengyun nodded, summoned the Xuanyuan Sword, and said:

"Correct, we have already defeated the Demon Realm and resealed the Demon Realm into the Scar of the Sky.

The Demon Lord has been slain by us, and the Demon Realm is now leaderless; I imagine it will not appear with a monarch for at least several thousand years.

The Human Realm should be able to have a period of peaceful development for a short time."

The Sword Spirit looked at the shimmering Xuanyuan Sword in Duan Fengyun's hand, knowing that it had recovered its divine power and reached its complete form.

Upon learning that Duan Fengyun had actually slain the Demon Lord, the Sword Spirit said excitedly:

"Little Master, you did it!

Things that the old master could not accomplish thousands of years ago, you have now accomplished.

If the old master could see your achievements today, I think he would be very happy as well.

Little Master, are you leaving now?"

Duan Fengyun nodded and said:

"Yes, I still have other things to do.

After Yuwen Tuo's wedding on the eighth day is over, I will go find my master.

Once I find my master, I will tell him about letting you return to his side.

Because now that the Xuanyuan Sword has its true master, I believe Brother Yuwen will be the master of the Xuanyuan Sword!"

Hearing Duan Fengyun say that he would ask Xuanyuan Huangdi to let him return, the Sword Spirit's original sorrow instantly vanished.

The Sword Spirit said excitedly:

"Then Little Master, I will wait here for your news."

Duan Fengyun nodded, then took more than ten jars of wine out from the Void and said:

"These are the wines I brought for you; drink these first."

"If you finish it and need more, just look for Yuwen Tuo; he has plenty of wine there too."

The Sword Spirit chuckled as he took the wine from Duan Fengyun and said:

"Then I shall not decline; many thanks, little master."

Yuwen Tuo spoke up:

"Sword Spirit, once I move here and become your neighbor in the future, I will come to find you for a drink whenever I am free."

【To be honest, I have been using Wild Fruit Reading to keep up with updates lately. It has source switching, many reading voices, and works on both Android and Apple.】

"Good, I will wait for you.

However, I still hope to return to the side of my old master, Xuanyuan Huangdi."

Duan Fengyun nodded and said:

"Alright, I will remember to mention this matter to Master.

Alright, Sword Spirit, we are leaving first."

Having said this, Duan Fengyun and Yuwen Tuo turned and left.

The two of them had to return to Yuehe City now to begin preparing for Yuwen Tuo's wedding.

Meanwhile, inside Yuehe City, Ning Ke, accompanied by Yu Xiaoxue and Dan Yuwu, had already begun selecting fine fabrics at various shops to make clothes.

Now that Ning Ke knew Yuwen Tuo's heart, and Yu Xiaoxue had expressed her blessings for the two of them, Ning Ke had accepted Yu Xiaoxue, and the two had become very good friends.

When Duan Fengyun and Yuwen Tuo returned to Yuwen Tuo's courtyard, they saw Yu Xiaoxue, Ning Ke, and the others arriving with large and small bags.

Duan Fengyun teased:

"Brother Yuwen, it seems you are not the only one enthusiastic about this marriage.

Ning Ke seems even more enthusiastic than you."

Dan Yuwu, protective of her family, stepped out to speak for her daughter-in-law:

"Mr. Duan is joking; I was the one who took Ning Ke to buy these.

After all, she will be my Yuwen family's daughter-in-law from now on, so as her mother-in-law, I must certainly prepare a few outfits for her."

Seeing this, Duan Fengyun knew that they were now a family of three.

How could his one mouth win against the three of them? So, Duan Fengyun chose to shut up. However, he would certainly do what he had promised Yuwen Tuo.

Half a month was enough for Duan Fengyun to help Yuwen Tuo arrange a very thoughtful wedding.

With Duan Fengyun's help, Yuwen Tuo's courtyard was decorated with lanterns and colored streamers, with bright red lanterns hanging everywhere.

Passersby knew at a glance that this household was holding a joyous event, and they all offered their congratulations to Dan Yuwu as they passed by.

Dan Yuwu was very generous; to everyone who passed by and offered blessings, Dan Yuwu gave a bag of wedding candies.

After all, joyous events should be shared so that everyone could catch some of the festive spirit and feel her happiness.

Days passed one by one, and soon the eighth day arrived; Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke finally ushered in their big day.

On this day, Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke were both dressed in red wedding attire.

The saying "a happy event brings a refreshing spirit" was perfectly manifested in Yuwen Tuo.

Yuwen Tuo, who was usually cold-faced, had a face overflowing with a happy smile, and it never stopped; he kept that sunny smile the entire time.

Led by Yu Xiaoxue, Ning Ke arrived at the main hall.

Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke stood facing each other, and at this moment, Duan Fengyun's voice rang out.

"First bow to Heaven and Earth!"

Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke bowed deeply to Heaven and Earth, and the previously cloudless sky actually rumbled with thunder.

Seeing this, Guyue smiled and said:

"You need not worry; looking at this, it seems Heaven has already approved of your marriage."

Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke looked at each other and smiled; before this, they had been worried about whether Heaven and Earth would forbid their marriage during the ceremony, but seeing this, the two felt much more at ease.

"Second bow to the high hall!"

At this moment, in the high hall, Dan Yuwu and Guyue sat upright, enjoying the bows from the two Immortals.

Under Duan Fengyun's suggestion, Guyue had long since adopted Ning Ke as his foster daughter, and it was precisely because of this that Heaven and Earth recognized the marriage between Ning Ke and Yuwen Tuo.

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke both gave each other a deep bow.

"Ceremony complete!"

With Duan Fengyun's declaration that the ceremony was complete, Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke were finally united as a couple; ignoring the audience present, they hugged each other tightly.

Watching the two hugging tightly, Duan Fengyun coughed deliberately and said:

"Alright, alright, you two can talk about whatever you want when you are in the bridal chamber.

It is about time; everyone is waiting for you to start the banquet, we are about to starve to death."

Hearing Duan Fengyun's words, Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke finally let go.

Everyone came to the table; this table was one Duan Fengyun had meticulously prepared for everyone. It was the wedding banquet Duan Fengyun prepared for Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke, and also a farewell banquet for himself.

However, Duan Fengyun did not mention to anyone how soon he would be leaving; he just wanted to leave quietly, as he did not want to see the reluctance of parting.

Therefore, at today's meal, Duan Fengyun did not show any intention of leaving, only constantly congratulating Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke and urging them to drink.

With Duan Fengyun's persistent urging to drink, plus Ran Weng assisting from the side, Ning Ke and Yuwen Tuo successfully got drunk.

After Duan Fengyun and the others helped the two back to the bridal chamber, they each returned to their own homes.

Duan Fengyun looked at their respective courtyards and murmured:

"Farewell, everyone!"

Having said this, Duan Fengyun soared into the sky and flew toward the heavens.
