Tonight was supposed to be a brilliant starlit night, with infinite beauty in the sky.
Unexpectedly, an autumn rain quietly began in the middle of the night.
At first, it was gentle, but then it intensified.
Gentle at first with a slanting breeze and fine rain, intense later with wild winds and heavy showers.
Near dawn, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.
By the time the sun was high, it was a cloudless sky, a piece of sky bright and clear air.
Since Su Mo traversed into this Martial World, this was the first morning he hadn't gotten up to practice martial arts.
He slept until the sun was high in the sky before finally opening his eyes.
Reaching out his hand to search, he found the bed beside him was already empty.
Turning his head, he saw Yang Xiaoyun sitting at the dressing table, putting on makeup.
Su Mo turned over, reclining as he watched her.
Perhaps his gaze was too intense, making Yang Xiaoyun restless, she couldn't help but turn her head to glare at Su Mo:
"Aren't you going to come and help?"
"Hahaha."
Su Mo laughed, only then getting off the bed, walking to her side, bending slightly to look at the woman in the copper mirror:
"What would you like me, your husband, to do?"
"... I just can't seem to get the hang of these things."
Yang Xiaoyun stared at the rouge and face powder before her, evidently puzzled.
Su Mo was speechless, she was used to wielding swords, asking her to deal with these cosmetics was indeed a bit difficult for her.
Seeing her grabbing a handful of rouge about to smear it on her face, Su Mo quickly stopped her, smiling helplessly:
"You normally don't mess with these things, what's the occasion today?"
"A new bride can't show up barefaced, can she?"
Yang Xiaoyun gave Su Mo a sidelong glance:
"Yesterday the maid helped with the makeup, today I wanted to try it myself. But it's easier said than done. Watching them do it seems so easy, why is it so difficult for me? Truly strange and puzzling."
"Let me try."
Su Mo immediately volunteered.
Yang Xiaoyun trusted him completely, nodding in agreement at once.
Turning around, she closed her eyes, quietly waiting. But after a moment, hot breath was already blowing on her face.
Just married and passionately in love, naturally a spark would ignite a fire.
Yang Xiaoyun waited a moment, feeling no movement on her face, instead being lifted by Su Mo.
Startled, she struggled quickly:
"My husband, don't…"
"That's not what you said last night."
"It's daytime now..."
"What difference does day make?"
"The Grandmaster is still in the residence, how can we indulge like this?
"Now that the sun is up, we must go pay respects to the elders."
This indeed made sense.
Su Mo was helpless for a moment, so he set her down, picked up the rouge and face powder, and attempted to apply her makeup.
However, Su Mo clearly overestimated his skills.
He quickly realized that he was no better than Yang Xiaoyun at this.
After his efforts, Yang Xiaoyun's stunning looks were instantly unpresentable.
The two of them looked at each other in the copper mirror, finally bursting into laughter.
Yang Xiaoyun pinched Su Mo hard several times, so Su Mo had to use clear water to wash it off, then invited the maid in to redo her makeup.
A new bride not only needed makeup but also had to redo her hair.
From this day forward, she would no longer be a maiden in waiting, but a married woman.
After some effort at the dressing table, the two went out to pay respects to their elders.
In fact, it wasn't just the elders; all the Jianghu heroes who had come from various places had to be seen too.
So today, it was still bustling outside; the banquet would last three days, naturally, it wouldn't end so quickly.
However, Li Zhengyuan couldn't stay here any longer.
Including the people from Dongcheng Seven Sects, they had all taken time out of their busy schedules to rush over for this wedding banquet.
As for other people from Dongcheng, some had already set off last night.
After all, travelling back and forth, taking two months was no short time.
So, today early after paying respects to Li Zhengyuan, the elder proposed to take his leave.
After failing to persuade him to stay, Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun had to see him out of the city.
They accompanied him to Shi Li Pavilion, where they paused for a while to say farewell.
Li Zhengyuan told Su Mo that upon returning to Dongcheng, he would be back on the warfront.
Now that the Dongcheng Sects were attacking Eternal Night Valley, they were winning battle after battle, with good news frequently coming in.
However, the matter about the Night Lord that Su Mo had asked Duan Song to secretly convey had not yielded any news so far.
He also told Su Mo that any discovery would be communicated to Ziyang Escort Agency immediately.
Lastly, Li Zhengyuan advised Su Mo to live well, now that he had a wife, he should expand the Su family soon enough and other such common wisdom...
All the old clichés really.
Besides Li Zhengyuan, the Second Palace Master, and Third Palace Master from the Seven Sects also left together, with Xia Xuanran, Wei Chimeng, and Luo Changsheng accompanying them.
Only Xuanzhen Little Monk and that Xuanyuan Xiaoshan did not return to Dongcheng.
They planned to go out to sea for some training.
Being young, it was the perfect time to travel the world and see Jianghu.
Coming to the wedding banquet was part of their plan to go straight from Luoxia City to the sea.
When there's nothing left to say, the couple stood there, watching the group gradually fade into the distance.
When they could no longer be seen, the sound of hoofbeats came from behind.
Turning to look, Wei Ziyi was arriving leisurely.
Dismounting, she paid respects to Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun, then looked into the distance, and couldn't help but stomp her foot:
"Why didn't Master wait for me?"
"Perhaps he was saddened by the parting."
Yang Xiaoyun gently consoled her, then took Wei Ziyi's hand:
"Ziyi, will you be residing in Luoxia City from now on?"
Wei Ziyi glanced at her, then instinctively looked at Su Mo, before nodding slightly and saying:
