To be honest, the Le Family could be considered a family, but when compared to Lian Yun's own prestige and the power she established, there was a vast difference. If one were to take into account the colossal presence of the Lin Family, anyone would think that Le Yan was simply unworthy of Lian Yun.
However, Le Yan herself felt no burden, for since Lian Yun was young, she had always thought of him. When Lian Yun lost his status, she waited patiently. What she sought was not wealth or power, nor any honor; she merely wished to be by Lian Yun's side for eternity.
Yet, Lin Beiyan, the matriarch, was exceedingly fond of her.
Moreover, Grandma and the entire Lin Clan were very supportive, and most importantly, it was Lian Yun's own desire that mattered.
As a result, no one dared to speak ill of Le Yan.
Even those women who harbored feelings for Lian Yun found it difficult to openly criticize Le Yan in any way.
After a busy period, Lian Yun's wedding procession finally set off. The entourage was unprecedentedly strong, consisting almost entirely of Peerless Monarchs, with an average age of under thirty. In a sense, this wedding procession represented the future main force of the Huaxia Four Cities.
Such a grand wedding scene could not be understated; the procession stretched for miles directly connecting Xianyang City and Lin City Fortress. Wherever Lian Yun and his companions passed, White Spirit Coins fell like a torrential rain. The scale was immense; especially after reaching Xianyang City, it truly rained money throughout the city, with billions exchanged in mere moments.
Not only that, but Lian Yun and the others moved at a leisurely pace as if to show off their grandeur while walking through the streets.
Lian Yun felt a bit impatient; he wanted to pick up his bride as soon as possible. However, Lin Feiyu and others happily urged him to slow down.
This was Grandma's wish. In her words, even when looking back in the future, they could not allow the good girl to feel any regret; they aimed to give Le Yan a wedding without any shortcomings.
For this reason, even if the Lin Clan were seen as wealthy by others, they did not mind.
However, over the years, the Lin Clan's attitude towards outsiders had remained largely unchanged.
Despite growing stronger and becoming an unattainable presence for many, the Lin Clan maintained a humble and courteous demeanor towards others and rarely engaged in acts of bullying.
Thus in Xianyang City, among prominent families and powers—even Monarchs—picking up a White Spirit Coin was seen as a stroke of good fortune.
After picking up Le Yan, Lian Yun followed Grandma's wishes and carried her as they walked for miles. Meng Yixun, Iruoxue, General Xi Men Yu Ying, and several others accompanying them seemed envious of this moment.
However, Meng Yixun and a few others understood Le Yan's situation and sincerely wished her well. Yet, Xi Men Yu Ying, who had come to join the festivities, felt somewhat out of place, as if she were experiencing a bittersweet reunion.
Given her past of indulgence and a hedonistic lifestyle, even if she had known Lian Yun earlier, she could not wait for him with the same dedication as Le Yan did.
Nevertheless, she made a request. Over the years, she had prepared for the Phoenix Nirvana but had lacked the confidence or had reservations that prevented her from proceeding.
Now that she knew Lian Yun was getting married, she let go of one of her hopes. However, since it was rare for Lian Yun to return in his true form, she asked him to assist her with her Nirvana after the wedding banquet.
Lian Yun naturally would not refuse. Firstly, it was to ensure Meng Yixuan's safety, and secondly, he himself wanted to witness the current Phoenix Nirvana.
In a hundred miles' journey, Lian Yun traveled neither quickly nor slowly but completed it within two hours. Upon entering Lin City’s gates, he was greeted by a bustling and joyous atmosphere.
However, among the guests' conversations, the topic most discussed was not Lian Yun's wedding but rather Master Lin Jin of the Lin Clan, who held the title of Half Emperor.
Lian Yun paid little attention to this; among the guests at Sword Mountain, he recognized hardly one percent of them. Moreover, his focus was solely on the beauty in his arms.
After a series of customary rituals, guests began drinking and chatting. Then Lian Yun, Le Yan, Lian Cheng, and Lin Beiyan—the four main figures—moved around to toast and express gratitude to their guests.
When Cloud Emperor Lian Yun came to toast, it was an unprecedented event for most of the attendees. Many looked forward to this moment with anticipation.
After all, many among the guests were not of particularly high status.
Nevertheless, Lian Yun did not neglect any formalities; he went from table to table offering toasts. It took about an hour or two to cover all ten Sword Mountains. Some guests had a bit too much to drink and set aside their reservations to share a drink with Lian Yun. Once he did not refuse them, others gathered their courage and also sought to drink with him.
Additionally, there were those who brought gifts. Given Lian Yun's current status, he lacked for nothing; thus, most guests simply presented red envelopes containing either a White Spirit Coin or a Diamond Spirit Coin.
However, some special gifts were offered by Peerless Monarchs like Insect Emperor Fang Wu, who presented sums in the hundreds of millions or even over a billion Imperial Coins—a truly extravagant gift.
Then there were superpowers like Xianjian Sect that gifted hundreds or thousands of Mental Potions. While hundreds might not seem like much for Peerless Monarchs, when combined from various factions, it amounted to a significant contribution.
Besides Imperial Coins and Mental Potions, there were also Fortress formations. Although Lian Yun had no use for them personally, they were needed for Lin City Fortress—a gesture meant to flatter the Lin Family by borrowing flowers to offer Buddha.
Lian Yun was particularly concerned about the gift for Xi Men Yu Ying, specifically asking for a phoenix. He had once thought of asking Xi Men Yu Ying for something for his grandmother, but at that time, she didn't have much to give.
Toasting, receiving gifts, and expressing gratitude—just these three tasks took four to five hours as they moved through the nine Sword Mountains, not to mention the last one.
Even Lian Yun felt a bit fatigued from it all, but he had no better way to handle the situation. After all, toasting couldn't be rushed; he couldn't let his doppelganger help and lose the proper etiquette.
Thus, at the final Sword Mountain, Lian Yun and his family of four diligently toasted one by one.
However, when they reached the last table and saw an old farmer-like figure, Lian Yun suddenly froze in surprise. He grabbed Le Yan and hurriedly stepped forward, bowing deeply as he said, "Senior, what brings you here?"
The ordinary guests seated with the old farmer were immediately taken aback. Two of them, whether from drunkenness or shock, collapsed right onto the table.
Lian Yun had to respectfully address this person as "senior," who was at least a Half Emperor or even a Peerless Monarch. It was astonishing that such a powerful figure had been drinking at the same table with them for several hours.
The two or three people still conscious began to reflect on whether they had said anything wrong or acted disrespectfully earlier.
But when the old farmer spoke a single word, it sent them into a faint.
