Chapter 3659: 4.1259 The Grand Wedding (Part Four)
"Mhm, mhm, Master, don't panic, it'll be fine. The Longevity Tree bearing fruit will also take some time, at least three months."
Qiao Mu's heart relaxed, and she swallowed the word "good-for-nothing" back down.
Raising her hand, she patted Little Shui Wa's soft little head, and Qiao Mu curved her lips. "Good."
Qiao Mu held the mutton-fat white jade box and looked up. The phoenix palanquin, guided by the Blazing Blood Fire Phoenix, was escorted by groups of immortal cranes flying towards the summit of Tiansheng Mountain, circling several times in the air.
The ceremonial procession extended all the way from the summit of Tiansheng Mountain.
From an aerial view, the main mountain path of Tiansheng Mountain was lined with attendants from top to bottom.
The wedding reception procession stretched from Tiansheng Mountain into the Imperial Capital.
The Little Crown Princess and her retinue had already reached the summit, while the last person in the procession had just left the East Palace gate.
The Mo Clan's Ancestral Temple, the Tiansheng Palace, was built on a cliff, shrouded in mist, hazy and ethereal.
Below it lay nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine steps.
From a distance, with its upturned eaves and flying walls, it resembled a celestial palace, towering above the mountains.
Its grandeur was magnificent and awe-inspiring, evoking boundless pride when viewed from afar.
Surrounded by vibrant greenery, birds chirped auspiciously.
Thousands upon thousands of magpies formed rows and columns, their joyful calls creating a vibrant sound. At the peak of the mountain, above the rainbow, they seemed to form a long bridge.
The members of the wedding escort procession felt that merely being present today to witness this sight made their lives truly worthwhile.
In the future, discussing this with anyone would provide excellent conversation material, proving they had witnessed a grand occasion.
The Little Crown Princess and her retinue descended the Magpie Bridge and landed on the first step.
These nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine ancestral temple steps, whether for emperors, generals, or imperial descendants, had to be ascended on foot; none were exempt.
The Little Crown Princess stood on the steps, looking up at the palace thousands of steps away. Bearing the heavy phoenix crown on her head, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The road, how long it was, walking it alone, her heart filled with melancholy...
At this moment, the long peal of bells began to ring from the mountain summit.
The Little Crown Princess lifted the red gauze train of her wedding gown, which stretched for several meters, and began to ascend the steps, one steady step at a time.
Big liar!
He said he'd be back on the sixth of June.
Leaving Jojo to walk such a long flight of steps alone, to perform such an elaborate ceremony alone.
What Jojo promised you, she will fulfill, even if she's alone; the ceremony must be completed, and the tasks must be finished.
Jojo has already taken three hundred thirty-three steps, and you're still not back.
Jojo has already taken nine hundred ninety-nine steps, and you're still nowhere to be seen.
Jojo has already walked one thousand three hundred steps.
Jojo has completed two thousand eighty-eight steps.
It's okay.
Even if she has to walk all nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine steps alone, she must...
Follow this path to the end...
This life, she has only one path, and that is to spend it with him.
"Whoosh!" The ceremonial guards lining the long steps suddenly let out cries of surprise.
Qiao Mu's heart stirred, and she abruptly turned her head.
The sky seemed to be stained golden-red, with a brilliant crimson rising from the Magpie Bridge.
Her eyes instantly brightened, staring fixedly in that direction.
A long dragon's roar echoed across the vast expanse of heaven and earth.
The figure standing on the golden dragon stood tall and straight, with slightly disheveled long hair.
His vibrant red robe instantly eclipsed all other colors in the heavens and on earth.
