The Shrinking Jiang Yueye

Dozens of... wedding banquets?

Jiang Che's scalp tingled. Did this mean he had to be a groom dozens of times?

Although it didn't sound like a loss, it... why did it sound so weird?

*Smack!* Qin Qiaoqiao slapped her thigh hard. "That's right, Jiang Che!"

"With your influence in the Nine Heavens, a single wedding would require inviting the Ten Thousand Races. Just the gift money alone would make a fortune!" Qin Qiaoqiao swallowed hard; her train of thought was always uniquely peculiar.

"Uh..."

Jiang Che thought about it. She was right!

He would probably get hand cramps just from accepting Spirit Stones.

Jiang Che looked at the Seventh Ancestor. "Old Seven... how many people did you invite to my wedding with Yueyue?"

Sweat beaded on the Seventh Ancestor's forehead. As an Immortal, he could foresee myriads of things, but this was a possibility he had never considered.

"Young... Young Master Jiang, we didn't invite anyone. It's just... just a wedding held internally within the Jiang Family." The Seventh Ancestor was drenched in sweat, but then he seemed to think of something.

"Rest assured, us old folks will definitely give you a thick red envelope!"

Jiang Che waved his hand. "Later, I'll just drive the Realm-Breaking Immortal Boat directly into the Jiang home. As for red envelopes... just give whatever you see fit. No need for too much."

The Seventh Ancestor's face stiffened, but he quickly forced a smile.

Clearly, they were about to bleed money again.

It was like going out for drinks with your boss. If the boss says, "Let's just have some cheap liquor," can you really give him cheap liquor? No, you have to fill mineral water bottles with top-shelf Maotai! And after drinking, you still have to stuff cases of wine into the boss's trunk.

...

After the Seventh Ancestor left, things got lively around Jiang Che.

"We're having a feast! We're having a feast!" Xiao An'an was very happy. The Nine Heavens were truly hospitable; she got to eat a banquet as soon as she arrived. She had never eaten delicacies from the Nine Heavens before, and just thinking about it made her drool.

"Jiang Che, when did you hook up with this one?" A slightly sour tone drifted over. The speaker was Gu Lingfei. She had become particularly sensitive after getting pregnant, and hearing that Jiang Che was going to perform wedding rituals with another woman naturally made her feel sour.

But with her old personality, she definitely wouldn't have been this jealous.

"I really didn't know! That Old Seven just swore a Heavenly Dao Oath earlier, right? Suddenly arranging a marriage like this for me... and I can't even refuse? This damned feudal system of arranged marriages must be eradicated!" Jiang Che spoke with feigned anger.

But the corners of his mouth couldn't be suppressed at all.

What man wouldn't want a wife falling from the sky? Especially one as beautiful as a flower who wouldn't swindle your money?

"Tch! Stinking man! Anyway, I don't care... since you've decided to perform the wedding rituals with that Jiang Yueye, then every one of us gets a wedding too."

"Of course! Feifei... once the baby in your belly is born, I'll hold a grand wedding for you immediately. I'll invite the Ten Thousand Races of the Nine Heavens to come and celebrate..." Jiang Che pulled Gu Lingfei into his arms.

"Heh, I think you just want to collect the gift money, don't you?" Gu Lingfei laughed.

......

"Tsk tsk tsk, this Seventh Ancestor is a talent. I'll give him first dibs on good stuff in the future."

Jiang Che silently credited the Seventh Ancestor in his heart.

"Jiang Che! This outfit won't do. Hurry up and change. Do you think bowing to heaven and earth is as casual as our daily lives?"

"Brother Jiang Che, this outfit should suit you better..."

Jiang Che became a mannequin, surrounded by the girls who took turns dressing him in various wedding attires.

"Hey... you guys don't even know what the bride is wearing, yet you're changing me?" Jiang Che's mouth twitched.

"Oh, right!" Xiao Sisi blinked her big eyes blankly.

Jiang Che let out a long sigh and took the groom's hat off his head. "You all come with me to the Jiang family later. I'll arrange a few tables for you. Just focus on burying your heads and eating. Don't get jealous when I'm performing the ceremony!"

"Heh, who would be jealous of you?" Yu Wan'er retorted, unconvinced.

"Remember what you just said!"

......

Meanwhile, at the Jiang family.

"Holy crap? So arrogant? Smashing through the realm barrier in a Star-grade Immortal Boat?"

"I can't take it anymore. Brother Jiang is truly generous. Giving away such a precious Immortal artifact just like that?"

"Is 'Brother Jiang' something you're fit to say? Ancestor Jiang Yueye is about to marry Jiang Che. In terms of seniority, Jiang Che will be equivalent to our Ancestor. Have some situational awareness."

The Jiang family's group of Imperial Scions had rarely gathered all at once, but they were all here now, ready to feast.

The Ancestor was getting married?

Could you believe it?

Moreover, the fathers of these Imperial Scions had already warned them in advance that they must get on Jiang Che's good side.

Of course, the pride of these arrogant Scions had long been crushed to powder by Jiang Che.

Especially the moment Jiang Che livestreamed giving Jiang Ruoxu the 'Void Immortal Boat,' these Scions wished they could take his place.

"Jiang Suancong, didn't you have feelings for Ancestor Jiang Yueye? What now? She's getting married!" a long-haired Scion said.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't make false accusations! When did I have feelings for Ancestor Jiang Yueye? That was respect, understand? Would I do something like betraying my masters and ancestors?"

"Oh, so cowardly?"

"Stop arguing, I'm waiting to hug some thighs!"

...

It was lively inside the Jiang family. Many collateral descendants had arrived, and the vast Jiang estate was decorated with lanterns and colored banners. Many Great Emperors in seclusion woke up one after another.

Then they looked completely bewildered. They were in deep death seclusion... only to be woken up and told the Ancestor was getting married?

Jiang Yueye, meanwhile, sat quietly in her boudoir. She wore an incredibly luxurious phoenix coronet and robes. The red dress was embroidered with golden accessories, her long hair cascaded down, and a red veil covered her head. Although her face couldn't be seen, some people's beauty could be felt even without seeing them.

Jiang Yueye was still in a daze.

Because of a single sentence from her father, she had inexplicably put on wedding clothes to perform the ceremony, and her Dao partner was someone she had never met.

But the thought that she was actually getting married made Jiang Yueye panic, clutching the corner of her dress tightly. If that Jiang Che really wanted to plot against her... er, no, if they really performed the ceremony, it wouldn't be plotting against her. What should it be called... the Rites of Duke Zhou!

But the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. She was at the Tenth Heaven of the Creation Realm. Even if Jiang Che was powerful... he couldn't force her.

But... did she really like him?

Impossible?! Although this Jiang Che had peerless talent, he was ultimately just a stranger to her. This marriage felt more like... a political alliance.

The Jiang family was using her to tie down Jiang Che.

She wanted to flee.

But just then, her divine sense seemed to perceive something.

It was... it was the Immortal Boat!

Jiang Che had arrived?!!!
