Venerated Venomous Consort

Di Fuyi was appalled by her response! He lifted his sleeve off the table and got ready to leave. “You are really trying your best for your apprentice! Divine Lord, please rest assured, I admire your open-mindedness, and I intend to put it into practice!” Then, he turned away and left.

Gu Xijiu sat in the same place and looked down at the wine in the cup. She slowly put it near to her lips and drank it. As she took a gulp, she was choked and coughed repeatedly for a moment.

When the coughing finally stopped, she suddenly felt that the originally mellow wine in her glass had suddenly become bitter. It made her chest a little stuffy, and she no longer wanted to drink it.

…

The wedding ceremony of the God of Creation was naturally the center of attention of the entire world. There were full attendance and representation from the officials of all six realms. The vast Tianyin Valley was quite full of people on this day.

Fortunately, the steward who Di Fuyi chose to manage all of these matters was a competent person. This person was not only hard-working but also versatile. There were so many guests and so many chores that needed to be sorted, but he could arrange it in a fast and orderly manner. All the people did their jobs well, and there was no chaos at all.

Gu Xijiu had some time on her hands, so she simply meditated for two days and only came out one day before the wedding. Wu Qianyan reported to her and said that National Master Di had sent a wedding dress and asked her to give it a try.

In her lifetime, Gu Xijiu had never expected that she would wear a wedding dress one day. The wedding dress was very costly as it was sewed by the most famous embroiders in the six realms using the best silk satin. It took them ten days without any sleep to finish this dress.

There were a few phoenixes on the wedding dress that danced and looked like they were alive. She donned the dress piece by piece on her body, and then wore the phoenix crown with a pearl on her hair. She looked into the mirror, and the flaming red color of her dress reflected on her slightly pale face with a blush. The swaying tassels made her pretty face look like a peach blossom.

The entire wedding dress was gorgeous, and Gu Xijiu let out a sigh of relief as she sorted out her eyelashes with a curler. Every girl had a dream wedding dress in their heart, and Gu Xijiu was no exception. Nevertheless, she did not even know what she liked until this moment. Even though all of it was just a show, in the end, it actually fulfilled a dream of hers.

She spun around, and the wedding dress fluttered perfectly with the movements of her body. She felt delighted with this wedding dress, and then turned to ask Wu Qianyan behind her, “Qianyan, how do you feel?”

Wu Qianyan was a little worried to the point where she did not even hear Gu Xijiu speak. Gu Xijiu had to ask her again before her mind was brought back into the room. She smiled and replied, “It is nice! You look stunning wearing this dress. You will be the most beautiful bride in the world tomorrow!”

Gu Xijiu was satisfied with that answer. She straightened the coronet on her head and casually asked, “Where is Qianshi?”

Wu Qianyan was stunned by the question. She answered, “He is…. out; hasn’t come back yet.”

Gu Xijiu frowned. “This child has not been sensible recently.”

Wu Qianyan subconsciously tried to cover for him. “He should be out to buy the items needed for the wedding.”

“That’s good. Fortunately, he is not that insensible after all.”

Wu Qianyan looked down to the ground and sighed.

…

Gu Xijiu found Fan Qianshi in the underground cellar of a restaurant. He was drunk and had stolen a dozen of excellent wines hidden in the house. He was lying on the ground and sleeping when she found him. The air was filled with the smell of alcohol as he murmured something in his dream, “Master… Why…”
