Qiao Chu became even more embarrassed.
Hua Yao cleared his throat and looked at Jun Wu Xie: “How do you intend to do it?”
Before Jun Wu Xie could speak, Qiao Chu butted right in and said anxiously: “Brother Hua, you wouldn’t really go get yourself a wife right? Will you?”
Hua Yao shot him a scathing glance, looking exceptional cold and lofty.
Jun Wu Xie then said: “You will only need to alter your looks to look like me, and carry out the rites for the wedding ceremony and that will do. In the eyes of everybody else, I will be the one marrying her.”
Immediately after Jun Wu Xie said those words, Qiao Chu finally heaved a huge sigh of relief and the gaze that Fei Yan gave Qiao Chu became even stranger.
Hua Yao nodded and said: “Alright.”
“Brother Hua, how unprincipled are you? Just have to ask you to marry and you are agreeing to it immediately?” Fei Yan said with a broad smile on his face.
Jun Wu Xie shot a glance at Fei Yan and Fei Yan immediately knew that it was time to shut up.
“I am thinking, Little Xie. You wouldn’t be bringing Qu Ling Yue to tag along with us in future would you?” Qiao Chu had finally managed to revert to normal. He had a general idea of what Jun Wu Xie was planning and that was all merely done to protect Qu Ling Yue. But they had already found the human skin map and they would need to head off to other places, to continue searching for the rest of the maps. Based on the situations they had run into with the previous maps, what they would face next would not be something that Qu Ling Yue would be able to handle.
Qu Ling Yue’s aptitude in her spirit powers might be considered to have been highly gifted for people in the Lower Realm, but in the eyes of this bunch with their demonic growth, she was still too weak. All the dangers that they would be facing, would not be suitable for Qu Ling Yue to be a part of at all.
Jun Wu Xie shook her head and said: “It depends on her choice. If she wants to remain here, she will just continue to stay within the Thousand Beast City. If not, I will have her go to the Qi Kingdom and seek out my Grandfather.”
Qu Ling Yue was a really nice girl, and she shouldn’t be made to suffer all this. And this was also a rare moment of compassion from Jun Wu Xie.
“Er…..” Qiao Chu unconsciously imagined a strange image in his head. Qu Ling Yue goes to the Qi Kingdom, and kneels to greet the elderly Grandfather Jun, stately clearly “I am the granddaughter in law of your Jun Family”, thinking rather accurately that Grandfather Jun might suddenly find himself so shocked to be completely covered in cold sweat.
Jun Wu Xie always liked to stuff people back to the Lin Palace whenever she felt like it. There were Mu Chen, Yin Yan, and then there was also Mu Qian Fan. Now Qu Ling Yue was going to be added on to the list….. Qiao Chu really had to take his hat off to Jun Wu Xie for this strange habit she had developed.
“That might work. Hope she makes a full recovery.” Fan Zhuo nodded slightly, in agreement to how Jun Wu Xie was going to deal with the situation. They could see that Jun Wu Xie was giving Qu Ling Yue preferential treatment and that must have been due to the guilt Jun Wu Xie felt towards Qu Ling Yue.
For Qu Ling Yue to gain a good refuge, it would also take part of the worry and guilt off Jun Wu Xie’s mind.
“Then just leave this matter in our hands to go handle it, I guarantee that we’ll make it a grand affair, and it would not disgrace Qu Ling Yue in anyway.” Fei Yan said confidently, thumping his chest in assurance.
Jun Wu Xie nodded. She hoped to give Qu Ling Yue a grand and magnificent wedding, one that would allow Qu Ling Yue to hold her head up before the people of the Thousand Beast City, to make every single one of them see, that Qu Ling Yue was a person Jun Xie stood behind, and no one was to bully her!
Volume 12
Chapter 1133: “Getting a Wife (3)”
Very soon, a heart inspiring piece of news spread very quickly throughout the Thousand Beast City. Jun Xie who pulled the Thousand Beast City out from the fiery pits of their certain demise was actually going to wed the Thousand Beast City’s Young Miss, Qu Ling Yue!
Once the news spread, the waves swept through the city immediately!
If it had been before that incident had happened and Jun Wu Xie made such a decision, everyone in the Thousand Beast City would have raised both their hands in approval, but now, the ordeal that Qu Ling Yue had gone through had already reached everyone’s ears, they had not even been agreeable for Qu Ling Yue to become the Grand Chieftain, so how would they be willing to see the saviour in their hearts wed a girl with a tainted past?
Soon after, the nosy parkers within the Thousand Beast City started gossiping about the matter with some of them even running to the Heavenly Cloud Chambers to ask Jun Xie to “think it over”.
But regarding those words, Jun Wu Xie couldn’t even be bothered to hear them.
When those voices of dissent reached a crescendo, an incident made those skeptical voices immediately disappear.
Among those favoured men who had run out from the Heavenly Cloud Chambers, a good half number of them had suddenly died within a night. The way those men had died were horrifying and those that died were those who had touched Qu Ling Yue. Beside the corpses of those men, were placed with a black jade badge carved with the character “Xie”.
That was undeniably a warning to everyone.
Jun Wu Xie used the most direct approach and the most blood filled method, to quell all the doubts, and to let everyone know clearly what her stand was.
Qu Ling Yue, would definitely be Jun Xie’s wife!
If anyone dared say one word otherwise, they would end up sharing the same fate as those favoured men who loved to wag their tongues so much!
In an instant, the sounds of gossip within the Thousand Beast City about Qu Ling Yue quickly dissipated a whole lot. Although there were still small tiny voices debating it in private, nobody dared come out in the open to say anything carelessly.
Fei Yan had together with the Fiery Blaze Clan, lit the streets and lined them with buntings, hanging up red lanterns, decorated everywhere with red silk and gauze, shrouding the entire Thousand Beast City, within a celebratory air.
Towards Jun Xie’s decision, Xiong Ba was naturally highly comforted and he was only too happy to coordinate with Fei Yan. Even when the other Clan Chiefs did not help, Xiong Ba mobilised every single man within the Fiery Blaze Clan, working very hard to make it the grandest affair they could.
Three days passed in a blink and at dusk on that day, from outside the gates of the Thousand Beast City in a ten mile radius, it was completely filled with fiery red flowers.
Ten miles of a flowery sea, the grandiose setting to receive the bride, had sent many of the young girls’ heart absolutely green with envy!
They wished so much that they would be able to take that place!
From within that golden dusk, “Jun Wu Xie” rode a magnificent white horse, stretching out behind him in a continuous long line the team who came to receive the bride, treading upon the sea of flowers, approaching against the breeze, welcomed under the rain of falling petals, as they slowly came into the Thousand Beast City!
On top of the Thousand Beast City’s gates, Xiong Ba was highly moved as he stared at everything before him, and hot tears immediately filled his eyes. He knew why Jun Xie was doing all this, but he had not thought that Jun Xie would set it up in such a grand fashion. Throughout their entire past, the previous generations of all the Young Miss of the Thousand Beast City, when they had wed, which one among them had enjoyed such unmatched treatment!
A ten mile wide sea of flowers! It had filled the air within the Thousand Beast City with a sweet fragrance, that faint scent, tugging at the heartstrings of many a young girl’s.
That was a dream wedding, that many young girls could only dream of!
The fiery colours of the flowers shone with the slanting golden rays of dusk, stretching from outside the city to the center of the city. The red lanterns hun
g high, waving within the fluttering shower of petals, beautiful as a painting. That scene, became what all the young girls within the Thousand Beast City yearned for forever after, what they dreamed of in their lives, wishing fervently to be treated the same way, even for just a small fraction of this.

Chapter 1134: “Getting a Wife (4)”
Before this, those who had still been secretly thinking whether Jun Xie would just wed Qu Ling Yue carelessly in haste to merely get it out of the way, had upon seeing the extremely grand and elaborate team for the reception, immediately shut their mouths.
They could only silently grit their teeth, and look upon the girl they held in shame, as she was given to enjoy the wedding that all the girls could only dream of!
Within the Heavenly Cloud Chambers, Qu Ling Yue was dressed in an intense, fiery red wedding dress, standing highly ill at ease by the window. Outside the tightly locked window, the celebratory sounds of gongs and cymbals floated in, as her nervous hands tugged hard at the elaborately and intricately embroidered wedding dress, her hands covered in cold sweat.
With visibly trembling hands, she finally summoned enough courage to push open the window!
In the instant the window was opened, bright red flower petals fluttered in with the incoming rush of the breeze onto her face, as she saw the Thousand Beast City covered in a sea of flowery red, an innumerable amount of flowers having lit up the city who had just come out from a terrifying crisis, the intoxicating fragrance of flowers seeping deep into her nose!
The breeze gently blew through her hair, and her eyes stared wide, as she took on the breathtakingly beautiful scene right before her eyes.
The enchanting flowery sea mesmerized her eyes, everything seemingly a dream to her, so beautiful she wouldn’t be able to bear waking up from it.
“Like it?” A voice slightly tinged with a slight chill sounded out behind Qu Ling Yue suddenly.
Qu Ling Yue turned around in surprise, immediately seeing Jun Xie standing at the opened door, both arms crossed, looking calmly at her amidst the clamour.
Having avoided Jun Xie for so many days, but that very countenance that had been etched deep right into her heart and bones had not been wiped away in the slightest. In that moment that she saw Jun Wu Xie, her eyes suddenly shone with panic tinged with a sliver of bashfulness.
Even when she knew very well that the figure there was just like her, both of them girls, but without knowing why, Qu Ling Yue was still unable to quell that palpitation in her heart, as she looked upon the face of Jun Xie, her heart still beating madly as it always did when seeing “him”, the surge of emotions quickly turning her face red.
“You….. you don’t need to do this….. I know….. you are doing it for my own good…..” Qu Ling Yue stumbled over her words, her head lowered, suddenly feeling she was rather despicable. She understood the reason why Jun Wu Xie was doing this, and knew that Jun Wu Xie was a girl, but deep down in her heart, she still could not eliminate that wishful longing…..
Just for that one moment would be enough, even if she had to die the next second, she only wished….. to let this dream, last that little longer.
She didn’t want to wake, really….. don’t want to wake.
Just her remain within her despicable greed for this bits of bliss….. just a little bit…..
“You look, really ravishing today.” Jun Wu Xie said seriously, staring at Qu Ling Yue.
Qu Ling Yue’s eyes stared widely, as a cool gust blew in from outside the window, bringing in with it a flurry of flower petals, that swirled between her and Jun Wu Xie, making it such an enchanting sight that made one just wish they could make time freeze at that moment.
Jun Wu Xie touched her nose and coughed lightly to say: “Today the person going through the rites for the ceremony will be Hua Yao, as I….. do not know anything about all these. But rest assured, that I am still the one marrying you.”
Qu Ling Yue’s eyes flashed briefly, her face red as the night’s banquet hall. She lowered her head, and nodded obediently.
“If you are ready, then go downstairs first.” Jun Wu Xie said.
“Alright.” Qu Ling Yue’s head was still lowered, not daring to lift it up to look at Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie did not have much more to say anyway and turned to walk out from the room. But she had just barely gone out Qu Ling Yue’s sight when she was wrapped up into a familiar embrace.
“I had not known that Little Xie could coax people so well.” Jun Wu Yao said through narrowed eyes, as he smiled at Jun Wu Xie.

Chapter 1135: “Getting a Wife (5)”
Jun Wu Xie calmly picked up the little black cat upon her shoulder and brought it before Jun Wu Yao’s eyes.
“It taught me.” Jun Wu Xie said expressionlessly.
The little black cat immediately cringed up into a helpless ball, trying its hardest to put on a most innocent looking pair of eyes it could before Jun Wu Yao, but deep within its heart, it was scolding its Mistress a million times for having betrayed it.
[Does she want it to really die! ?]
[She must have wanted it to be slaughtered! !]
Jun Wu Yao’s eyes narrowed, as it eyed the little black cat that was trembling so hard it almost fainted. Lifting one hand, he picked up the little black cat by its soft furry skin, and tossed it away carelessly…..
The little black cat made like a black shooting star, flying through the air, the corners of its eyes shimmering with sorrowful tears.
Fortunately Ye Mei at the side caught it in his arms, preventing the little black cat from getting its mouth filled with mud.
“Don’t learn such things from it, you might just pick up those bad traits.” Jun Wu Yao said with a laugh as he held Jun Wu Xie in his arms.
The little black cat within Ye Mei arms already had its face filled with tear streaks.
[How was that picking up bad traits! !]
Jun Wu Xie looked at Jun Wu Yao, and after ascertaining that he was “being normal” today, she heaved a quiet sigh of relief inside. She had no doubt, that if Jun Wu Yao was feeling just like he had three days ago, what would have painted the Thousand Beast City red today, would not be a sea of flowers, but a sea of blood instead.
“Want to go watch?” Jun Wu Xie asked.
Jun Wu Yao shook his head.
“With such a noisy and boisterous affair, Little Xie wouldn’t enjoy it would you?” Asking him to go watch Hua Yao carrying Jun Xie’s face to go get married with Qu Ling Yue, he really wasn’t patient enough to put up with that, even though….. that face wasn’t Jun Wu Xie’s true countenance.
The little black cat secretly watched Jun Wu Yao and Jun Wu Xie in terror.
[Mistress, please don’t give him any silly ideas. Don’t you see that this demonic lord becomes insanely terrifying when he becomes overtaken by jealousy?]
[If he really went, the banquet will be awashed in blood!]
In the end, Jun Wu Xie wasn’t able to go witness “her” wedding with Qu Ling Yue, but had gone back to her room with Jun Wu Yao, to discuss about the hopelessly dry topic of her recent progress in spirit powers.
Meanwhile, in the other area of the Heavenly Cloud Chambers, it was highly joyous and festive, Qu Ling Yue came in wearing a big red veil, the red silk covering over her head, as she carried out the ceremonial rites, “to be wedded” to Hua Yao disguised as Jun Xie.
For this wedding, Jun Wu Xie had even employed a highly energy taxing skill with her silver needles, that would allow Qu Wen Hao to temporarily revert back to normal, letting him personally witness his daughter having found her own place she “belonged and had settled into.”
After the rites were finished, Qu Ling Yue was sent into the newlyweds’ conjugal chambers.
Hua Yao was dragged by Xiong Ba and his men to drink with them and as the drinks went on for the third round, Xiong Ba and his men were already mighty tipsy and the large towering man fell sobbing loudly right upon Hu
a Yao’s shoulder, bemoaning how he had let down Jun Xie and done her wrong, heaping high praise upon Jun Xie’s ancestors of eight generations above, thanking Jun Xie for saving the Thousand Beast City, and for having rescued Qu Ling Yue…..
However, all this was received on Jun Xie’s behalf by Hua Yao, and fortunately Hua Yao could hold his liquor rather well, so he had not been driven into incoherent drunkenness by the round after round of toast proffered up to him.
As the Thousand Beast City revelled under that highly festive and joyous atmosphere, outside their gates, a team of soldiers clad in light armour had suddenly arrived. They rode upon tall war horses, standing within the sea of flowers that filled the outside of the Thousand Beast City’s gates.
The youth at the forefront was handsome as he stared in puzzlement at the celebratory atmosphere within the Thousand Beast City, his eyes looking rather surprised, as the other youth atop another horse at his shoulder similarly had shocked eyes as he stared inside the Thousand Beast City.
“Royal Brother, could the Thousand Beast City be celebrating a happy occasion?”
The other youth narrowed his eyes slightly and said: “Regardless of whatever is happening, we must definitely deliver the news into Jun Xie’s hands. I hope he….. has not yet left the Thousand Beast City.”
Volume 12
Chapter 1136: “Flames of War Rise (1)”
Just as the night merriment was well underway, a team of people silently entered the city.
The guards from the gates immediately made their way towards the Heavenly Cloud Chambers to inform the various Clan Chiefs but as the wedding banquet was already more than halfway through, the Clan Chiefs had already fallen unconscious with drink and with no other choice left, they could only deliver the news to Qu Ling Yue who was sitting within the newlyweds’ conjugal room.
With Jun Xie’s grand reception of Qu Ling Yue as his bride, no one within the Thousand Beast City now dared to disrespect her.
