452: The woman of destiny

"Come here!"

Xiao Qingxue's voice was as cold as frost, without any emotional fluctuations.

"Damn it! Isn't it just a wedding ceremony? What's there for a big man like me to be afraid of?"

Yang Lingchen secretly cursed, then slowly walked over and extended his hand to Xiao Qingxue.

Facing Yang Lingchen's outstretched hand, Xiao Qingxue's willow-like brows furrowed slightly, like spring mountains gently creased, then she gently placed her hand, as white and soft as mutton-fat jade, on Yang Lingchen's.

The moment their wrists touched, Yang Lingchen instantly felt a bone-chilling coldness, like sharp ice picks, entering his arm from his palm.

This bone-chilling coldness instantly stiffened Yang Lingchen's arm. At the critical moment, he quickly activated the Vast Heaven Art, and the coldness immediately vanished like a tide, without a trace.

Feeling the warmth from Yang Lingchen's arm, Xiao Qingxue's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but quickly returned to her usual indifference.

"Help me cover it."

Xiao Qingxue's voice was cold, like a flowing spring, then she took out a red cloth and handed it to Yang Lingchen.

Seeing this, Yang Lingchen carefully took the red cloth and gently placed it over Xiao Qingxue's head.

"What a temptress."

Smelling the faint, virgin scent of Xiao Qingxue's body, which was like an orchid in a secluded valley, pure and enchanting, Yang Lingchen's heart couldn't help but stir.

"First bow to heaven and earth."

Just then, the high-pitched voice of the Master of Ceremonies echoed in the main hall.

Yang Lingchen didn't react for a moment, frozen in place like a petrified statue.

"Kneel."

At this moment, Xiao Qingxue's icy voice, like a biting cold wind, entered Yang Lingchen's mind.

Yang Lingchen, who had come to his senses, quickly and respectfully knelt down. Having reached this point, he could only bite the bullet and bow to heaven and earth.

"Second bow to the esteemed parents."

The two turned around and respectfully bowed to Xiao Tianci, who was in the main seat.

"Husband and wife bow to each other."

Yang Lingchen turned to face Xiao Qingxue, and at the same time, Xiao Qingxue's body elegantly turned towards him.

Their movements showed no hesitation; they knelt down without a moment's delay.

"The ceremony is complete."

"Send the bride and groom to the bridal chamber."

"Guests, please proceed to the banquet."

The Master of Ceremonies' voice rang out again, like a grand bell.

Then, a joyous sound of gongs and drums filled the air. Supported by maidservants, Yang Lingchen and Xiao Qingxue were led into the bridal chamber in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

This was a luxurious and unique small courtyard, with windows and doors adorned with auspicious red characters. A long, bright red carpet, like burning flames, was laid at the entrance.

Upon entering the courtyard and pushing open the door, a sight of red silk filled the eyes, like brilliant clouds. On the table stood two dazzling golden candle lamps, their flames flickering, creating a dreamlike illusion.

At the innermost part of the room, there was a luxurious and enormous bed, embroidered with exquisite patterns.

Looking at all this, Yang Lingchen felt everything was so incredible. He couldn't understand how he, merely watching the excitement, had been seized and made into a groom.

What was he to do? Was he really going to consummate the marriage with the bride?

Yang Lingchen looked helpless, his brows furrowed into a tight ' Sichuan' shape.

"What? Marrying me is an injustice to you?"

Xiao Qingxue's voice was cold, carrying a bone-chilling chill that seemed capable of instantly freezing a person.

"Young Miss Xiao, I really was just passing by."

Yang Lingchen's eyes showed a hint of helplessness. The opponent's strength far surpassed his, and escaping would indeed be difficult.

Most importantly, he still hadn't figured out her purpose. He didn't believe it was a coincidence that she chose him as the groom.

"Don't you like me? Or do you think I'm not worthy of you?"

Xiao Qingxue, with ethereal and elegant steps, like a Fairy treading on waves, slowly walked in front of Yang Lingchen.

"No, not at all."

Yang Lingchen quickly explained, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He certainly didn't want to offend this terrifyingly powerful female expert.

"Aren't you going to help me lift the bridal veil?"

Xiao Qingxue said coldly, her voice carrying an undeniable authority.

"Oh... oh...!"

Yang Lingchen quickly nodded, like a chick pecking rice, then took a deep breath and gently lifted the red bridal veil from Xiao Qingxue's head.

As the red veil was lifted, a breathtakingly beautiful face, like a peerless painting, entered Yang Lingchen's eyes.

Xiao Qingxue's beautiful eyes suddenly blinked, her pair of exquisite eyes emitting a hint of captivating light, like brilliant stars.

The moment their eyes met, Yang Lingchen's gaze fell into a brief daze. These were enchanting, beautiful eyes that seemed capable of seeing through one's Soul.

Her flawless, naturally perfect immortal face was like a meticulously carved work of art. Her rosy, fragrant lips were luscious, like ripe cherries, and her delicate, upturned jade nose, along with her pair of captivatingly beautiful eyes, was like a clear, transparent spring, exquisitely charming.

"Am I beautiful?"

Xiao Qingxue's voice was as melodious as a Fairy's song, soft and lingering. She extended her exquisitely beautiful jade hand and gently hooked Yang Lingchen's chin.

"Beautiful...!"

Yang Lingchen was slightly lost in thought, but he quickly sobered up and asked, "What exactly is your purpose?"

"Of course I have a purpose, but at your current cultivation level, you are not yet qualified for me to tell you the truth. However, I can tell you one thing: everyone in the world might betray you, but that person will absolutely not be me."

Xiao Qingxue's voice was very soft, as if it could melt a person's heart, like a spring breeze caressing one's face.

"Why should I believe you?" Yang Lingchen stared coldly and firmly at Xiao Qingxue.

"Whether you believe it or not is your business. But if you keep chattering, don't blame me for being impolite." Xiao Qingxue's eyes instantly shot out a cold glint, like a sharp blade.

"Speak, what do you want?"

Yang Lingchen said in a deep voice, with a hint of resolve.

"Now we are husband and wife, and tonight is our wedding night. I don't need to remind you what we should do, do I?"

As Xiao Qingxue's words fell, her crimson wedding robe instantly slipped down. Immediately, her flawless, delicate body, like an exquisite sculpture, appeared before Yang Lingchen's eyes.

This was a breathtakingly beautiful body, with curvaceous figure like rolling mountains, and skin as fair and delicate as the finest mutton-fat jade. Every part of her body was naturally perfect, reaching the pinnacle of beauty.

"Hiss...!"

Yang Lingchen felt his breathing gradually become a little rapid, heavy like bellows, but he still didn't dare to move recklessly.

He could feel that this woman in front of him was terrifying. If he acted presumptuously, he might end up without a burial place.

"Could it be that you're just a pretty face and useless in bed?" Xiao Qingxue's sexy, delicate lips uttered a breathtakingly beautiful Fairy's voice, like a nightingale singing.

"Gulp...!"

Yang Lingchen couldn't help but swallow. He really couldn't understand why this ethereal beauty of a woman would fancy him. What was her purpose with him?

Looking at Yang Lingchen's disheveled appearance, Xiao Qingxue's lips curved into an alluring smile, like blooming peach blossoms.

Her slender, jade-like hand gently rested on Yang Lingchen's chest, and her tender red lips parted slightly, "What are you waiting for?"

Looking at the Exquisite Woman before him, Yang Lingchen completely lost himself. He couldn't understand why there could be a woman with such a perfect figure in this world.

Just as Yang Lingchen was in a daze, Xiao Qingxue's pink lips gently pressed against his.

Her movements were light, gentle, and also clumsy. Yang Lingchen could feel her heart beating faster, like a startled deer.

"Holy crap! Am I still a man if I keep holding back?"

At this moment, an ambiguous aura infinitely spread throughout this small courtyard, like a thick mist.

Melodious, heavenly string music echoed in the courtyard. Fortunately, Xiao Qingxue had set up a barrier, otherwise, the sound would have spread throughout the entire Panlong City.

Approximately three hours later.

Just then, Xiao Qingxue slapped Yang Lingchen's body, instantly lifting the cultivation level Restriction on him.

"How far you can go in the future depends on your own fortune."

Xiao Qingxue slowly stood up, meticulously put on her clothes, and then walked out of the small courtyard.

"Although our destiny is already predetermined, I believe we can change all of this."

Looking at the small courtyard where Yang Lingchen was, Xiao Qingxue murmured softly, her voice gentle yet firm.

"Master, is it worth it?" Xiao Tianci was extremely respectful, bowing his head, not daring to look directly at Xiao Qingxue.

"What's there to be worth or not worth? He is the man of my destiny; my body will be his sooner or later." Xiao Qingxue's eyes showed a hint of vicissitudes (vicissitude), as if she had experienced a thousand years of wind and rain. "I just hope that in this life, we can completely change our own destiny."

"Master, should we wait for him?" Xiao Tianci asked respectfully, with a hint of doubt in his tone.

"Let's go! It's time to leave. As for how far he can go in the future? That depends on his own fortune. All I can do is fully assist him."

After Xiao Qingxue finished speaking, she and Xiao Tianci completely disappeared from Panlong City, like smoke dissipating.
