God Emperor

Chapter 2414: Two Marriages

“In this Celestial-Hunting battle, the Immortal Vampires are ranked first. All participating cultivators will be rewarded with the opportunity to enter the Ancient Ruins to choose a Destiny Treasure, an item with the power of Destiny. In addition, each cultivator will be allowed to enter the Fane of Destiny to cultivate for 100 days.”

The Immortal Vampires were all extremely excited.

To think they could enter the Ancient Ruins and obtain a Destiny Treasure, even Supreme Saints were ecstatic.

Even if they did not use a Destiny Treasure, it would fetch a hefty price if they sold it. They could exchange it for a large amount of Godstones. With Godstones, they could buy the items they wanted.

As for the opportunity to enter the Fane of Destiny to cultivate, it was something that all the cultivators in Infernal Court dreamed of.

A strange light flashed in the eyes of Lady Wind as she thought, “My Destiny Feather is a Destiny Treasure from the Ancient Ruins. Now that my cultivation level is higher, if I go there, I might be able to find an even more precious treasure.”

“It’s said that the core disciples of the Fane of Destiny need to make great contributions before they are qualified to enter the Fane of Destiny to cultivate for a day. However, we can cultivate for a hundred days in one go. Our attainments in the Path of Destiny will definitely improve greatly.”

“With this opportunity, I might be able to condense the Gate of Destiny in one go.”

“My Gate of Destiny can become even stronger!”

“Don’t get excited. This is just the reward given by the Fane of Destiny. When we go back, the rewards given by the Fane of Immortality, our respective clans, and our families will be even more generous. Haha!”

The Immortal Vampires were in a frenzy. They felt that everything they had done in the Celestial-Hunting battle was worth it, and they finally got what they deserved.

The other races were all envious.

Fukurokuju’s voice sounded again, “Yanluo Clan is ranked second. All the cultivators will each receive a King Grade Luck Pill and the chance to enter the Fane of Destiny to cultivate for a hundred days.”

It was said that the so-called “Luck Pill” could increase a cultivator’s luck after consuming it.

This kind of thing was extremely mysterious. However, since the Fane of Destiny had openly given it to them, it should have some effect. Whether or not it could improve one’s luck, it would be good to treat it as a blessing gift. Perhaps the success rate would be higher when one broke through.

After all, after the Celestial Hunting battle, those cultivators who had been stuck at the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm would definitely try to break through to the Thousand-Koan Realm.

Breaking through was not that simple.

“The Rakshasas is ranked third. All cultivators will be given the opportunity to enter the Fane of Destiny to cultivate for a hundred days.”

Only the top three cultivators could receive rewards.

The Netherkin, Deathkin, Asura clan... the rest of the cultivators were indignant and envious. They only hated their defeat in Celestial-Hunting. Otherwise, all the benefits should have belonged to them.

Wu Jiang’s tone was deep as he said, “I’m afraid that Yan Huangtu and Luo Shengtian will receive countless rewards. With these resources, their practice speed will improve by leaps and bounds. I have to work harder to ensure I don’t fall behind them.”

In Wu Jiang’s eyes, Yan Huangtu and Luo Shengtian were his competitors.

Although Zhang Ruochen and Yan Wushen’s performance was amazing, they were destined to practice in the Hundred-Shackle Realm for a long time. Not only did they have to break the shackles, but they also had to polish their Saintwills.

Yan Huangtu, Luo Shengtian, and Wu Jiang had accumulated enough experience. They would break through to the Thousand-Koan Realm in an instant and continue to advance.

It was still unknown whether Zhang Ruochen and Yan Wushen could catch up with them in cultivation realms.

If they were one realm lower, no matter how amazing they were, Wu Jiang was confident that he could crush them.

“Fuurei.”

When Fukurokuju called out this name, Lady Wind, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly became spirited. She immediately took a few steps forward, knelt on one knee, and said, “Greetings, Reverend.”

Fuurei was only the first name of Lady Wind.

Her surname was called “Kagesawa,” and it was a family of the Yellowsky tribe. They ruled over a vast and extremely mysterious region in the territory of Yellowsky Clan.

Fukurokuju said, “I declare that you are officially the Scioness of the Fane of Destiny and will be in charge of everything for the Fane in the next thousand years. Are you willing to accept the appointment?”

Lady Wind suppressed her excitement and said, “Yes, I am.”

She exclaimed silently with joy, ‘I have succeeded. I have finally succeeded!’

From now on, she would ascend to the pinnacle of power in Infernal Court. She could be called the number one person below the deities. Even those Paramount Supreme Saints and demigods would have to fear her status when they saw her. She could even sit on the same level as some pseudo gods.

The gods would not care too much about the secular world. In other words, she was the secular master of Infernal Court.

‘So what if Zhang Ruochen and Yan Wushen are talented? What is the point for Pan Ruo to practice the Door of Trueself? If they can’t attain godhood, they will stay below me in the end. ‘ thought Lady Wind.

With her status as a Scioness, she could get a lot of practice resources. It wasn’t necessarily impossible for her to practice the Door of Trueself. Moreover, her cultivation realm could advance by leaps and bounds, leaving Pan Ruo far behind.

If she wanted to, she could even kill Pan Ruo with the help of others without anyone knowing, completely eliminating this threat.

“It’s only a matter of time before I catch up with Wu Jiang, Luo Shengtian, Yan Huangtu, and Lan Ying. By then, I’ll be able to stand proudly at the peak of this era, and I might even ascend before them.”

Lady Wind knew very well how many resources the Scions and Scionesses of Destiny could mobilize. She was full of anticipation for her progress in cultivation.

“Zhang Ruochen!” said Fukurokuju.

Zhang Ruochen was very calm. He walked to Lady Wind’s side, bowed, and said, “Greetings, Reverend.”

Lady Wind was a little displeased. She also paid her respects to Fukurokuju. Zhang Ruochen only bowed, but she knelt on one knee. ‘Is Zhang Ruochen trying to put me, the Scioness, in an awkward situation?

‘What will the other cultivators think when they see this?

‘Does Zhang Ruochen think that he is more honorable than a Scioness?’

Lady Wind wanted to stand up, but she realized that as soon as she moved, there was a force as heavy as the stars pressing down on her.

It was divine power.

It was easy to kneel but difficult to get up.

Especially when Fukurokuju had not spoken, how could the person who knelt down get up?

Of course, Fukurokuju did not mean to press her there. Before he finished speaking, there was already an invisible divine will pressing down on Lady Wind until she could not move.

Fukurokuju said, “Zhang Ruochen, you’ve performed well on the Celestial-Hunting battlefield. You’ve led the Immortal Vampires to win first place. You’ve even killed a Banshi Isshou Celestial Captive. You can get the final reward, 30 percent of the Canon of Destiny and a Destiny Token.”

Whoosh

Whoosh

The two Destiny Tokens turned into two streaks of white light and flew toward Zhang Ruochen and Lady Wind, respectively.

Zhang Ruochen reached out and grabbed. Just as he touched the token, it suddenly disappeared.

The token rushed into his palm.

Bzzztttt

The dense white lightning wrapped around Zhang Ruochen’s right hand and gradually withdrew.

The word “Token” appeared in his palm.

The Destiny Token was formed from the divine power of the twelve Reverends of the Fane of Destiny. It contained the cultivation paths of the twelve Reverends. No cultivator could imitate it.

With the Destiny Token, Zhang Ruochen could have the same transcendent status as the Scioness of Destiny. He could enter the various secret realms of the Fane of Destiny to practice at will.

Of course, Zhang Ruochen’s Destiny Token was different from Lady Wind’s one.

Zhang Ruochen’s Destiny Token could only be considered a status symbol.

However, Lady Wind’s Destiny Token represented supreme power, as if it was given by the emperor.

Fukurokuju did not mention anything further about the Canon of Destiny. Instead, he said, “You can leave now!”

Lady Wind suddenly felt the pressure on her body gone. She stood up slowly and resumed her noble and elegant posture. She looked at Zhang Ruochen and secretly expressed her dissatisfaction. She said, “The Reverend is the most powerful existence in the world. We should respect him.”

“Okay.”

Zhang Ruochen responded and retreated to the camp of the Immortal Vampires.

‘So what if he is a deity? I will not kneel if I don’t feel so.’

His pride was unbreakable.

Fukurokuju said, “There are many outstanding talents in this generation of the Infernal Court: Divine Fetus, demi-buddhas, demigods, Imperial Path Divine Bone, Myriad Hands and Eyes, and a Master of Oblivion... This is the world of the great war. I want to bestow two marriages.”

After the vast divine voice sounded out, it immediately caused a clamor that was as loud as a tsunami. It was even more shocking than when Lady Wind became a goddess.

A Reverend personally bestowed a marriage on such an occasion. The honor was immense.

Without a doubt, the status of the person who was bestowed a marriage would rise steadily in the Infernal Court in the future.

Luo Shengtian grinned and whispered to Luo Sha, who was standing by his side, “There will be one or two times a Reverend personally bestows a blessing every thousand years, but personally bestowing a marriage has never happened before, right?”

Luo Sha’s pretty face was as flawless as jade, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed. She said, “It is indeed a little strange. Gods cannot interfere with the affairs of the secular world. So bestowing a marriage to a Supreme Saint is equivalent to interfering with the power wrestling among various major forces.

“Fukurokuju has always been indifferent to secular affairs and has always been neutral. There must be some deeper meaning behind his actions.”

Luo Shengtian said, “I wonder who will be the one to be bestowed a marriage?”

Luo Sha thought carefully, and then her eyes shone sharply. She said, “Actually, it’s not hard to guess. There are only a few people who can enter Fukurokuju’s eye and personally give the marriage. Que, Lan Ying, Yan Huangtu, Wu Jiang, you, my brother, and Zhang Ruochen and Yan Wushen.

“Could it be...”

Luo Sha’s pair of slightly charming eyes glanced at Zhang Ruochen in the distance. She guessed in her mind, ‘Could it be that Wargod Bloodximius personally asked Fukurokuju to give the marriage to Zhang Ruochen? The possibility was very high!’

After all, Zhang Ruochen had too many enemies in Infernal Court. Without the protection of a Reverend, it would be difficult for him to grow up.

Luo Shengtian followed Luo Sha’s gaze and asked in surprise, “Zhang Ruochen?

“It’s most likely that guy. and the one who’s getting married is most likely Yan Zhexian.”

Luo Sha felt inexplicably annoyed, irritated, and jealous. ‘Zhang Ruochen is clearly my destiny. Why did this Yan Zhexian steal my man? It’s so unfair!

‘If the Reverend personally bestows the marriage between Yan Zhexian and Zhang Ruochen, her status as his wife will be irreplaceable.’

‘And when the time comes, Yan Zhexian will target and oppress me whenever I want to meet Zhang Ruochen. Moreover, my name will be tainted.

Luo Sha did not think that she would be the one who would receive the blessing because of her special status; her father was Emperor Luo Yan. He would never allow her to marry Zhang Ruochen. No matter how powerful Fukurokuju was, he could not suppress her father’s will. As a ruler of a Divine Kngdom, he could not compromise and yield to anyone.

Luo Shengtian said, “Zhang Ruochen is really a b*stard. He even got Yan Zhexian pregnant on the Celestial-Hunting battlefield. Only by bestowing them a marriage, Fukurokuju can appease the anger of the Yanluo Clan.

“Anyone who marries a man like Zhang Ruochen must have eight lifetimes of bad luck. What a pity for Yan Zhexian, the favorite daughter of Yanluo Clan.”

Fukurokuju said, “Zhang Ruochen, Luo Sha.”

Zhang Ruochen was not surprised to hear his name. He had already guessed it, but he did not expect Luo Sha to be his bride-to-be. After all, many cultivators knew he had more enmity with Luo Sha.

Not only had he captured Luo Sha, but he had also beaten her until she vomited blood on the Battlefield of Merits and killed countless Rakshasa Saints.

If Zhang Ruochen had not cooperated with Luo Sha on the Battlefield of Merits, many cultivators would have thought that their enmity was immense.

‘How could Luo Yan, the emperor, agree to this marriage?’ Zhang Ruochen did not dare to go against the will of a Reverend. He walked out.

Luo Sha was stunned when she heard her name. It was completely out of her expectations. Then, her snow-white and crystal face could not hold it anymore. She smiled and walked out happily.

Soon, she caught up with Zhang Ruochen. They walked side by side.

Luo Shengtian was even more stunned. He was petrified. ‘Fukurokuju is out of his mind. How could he let my little sister marry that b*stard? She will suffer a lot after marriage.

‘Zhang Ruochen has bullied her many times... No, absolutely no. This is unacceptable!’

Luo Shengtian took a step forward. Suddenly, he could not move his body. It was as if there were countless divine chains wrapped around his body. His mother’s voice rang in his mind. “Noone has the audacity to disobey a marriage bestowed by a Reverend.”

“But, Mother, we can’t just watch my little sister walk into a lion’s den. Can’t Father stop the Reverend?” Luo Shengtian said.

Amane’s voice rang out again. “Your father and I have already agreed to this marriage.”

Luo Shengtian’s rage was instantly extinguished, and he was in confusion.

Fukurokuju said, “I intend to marry the two of you. Zhang Ruochen, are you willing to marry the princess of Devala, Luo Sha?”

“Yes,” replied Zhang Ruochen.

Just as Amane had said, “Noone has the audacity to disobey a marriage bestowed by a Reverend.”

Fukurokuju had granted the marriage in front of all the cultivators in Infernal Court. Whoever disobeyed his will and refused his good intentions would have severe consequences. It was a thousand or ten thousand times more serious than rejecting a marriage granted by an emperor in the secular world.

“Luo Sha, are you willing to marry Zhang Ruochen of the Xue Jue Family?”

Luo Sha pursed her red lips and said shyly, “Yes.”

Luo Sha was the dream girl among countless young elites of the Rakshasa clan. They all wanted to marry her. Seeing that she had become Zhang Ruochen’s bride-to-be under the blessings of Fukurokuju, their eyes turned red with jealousy.

However, none of them dared to stand out and oppose.

Pan Ruo stood in the crowd and looked at Zhang Ruochen and Luo Sha standing side by side from afar. One was handsome, and the other was as beautiful as a fairy. They were like a perfect couple.

A hint of sadness appeared in Pan Ruo’s eyes. Her ten fingers pierced into her palm. Her heart ached, but she immediately lowered her head. She did not want anyone to see her emotions.

At this moment, Fukurokuju’s voice sounded again. “Yan Wushen, Pan Ruo.”
