Chapter 400 Double Cultivation Ceremony
Chapter 400 Double Cultivation Ceremony
The next day, Wang Bin and Chu Qingluan's dual cultivation ceremony was held as scheduled.
As soon as the ceremony began, a long line of people came to offer congratulations and gifts. The order of gift giving was arranged from lowest to highest cultivation level, and it was unknown who arranged this.
"The Zhang family of Qingshan City is sending a three-hundred-year-old elixir!"
"The Yin family of Xihai City is sending a five-hundred-year-old elixir!"
"Beihai City Situ, on behalf of the Situ family, presents a thousand-year-old snow lotus!"
"Zhang Fei from Donghai City, on behalf of the Zhang family, presents a bottle of fourth-level Qi and Blood Pill!"
"Nanhai City's King Fengtian, on behalf of the Wang family, presents a fourth-level Vajra Spirit Fruit!"
"Sihai City's Zuo Wentian, on behalf of the Zuo family, presents a bottle of the fourth-level anti-aging pill!"
"Li Shibing from Sihai City, on behalf of the Li family, presents a third-level sword sharpening stone!"
"Dongfang of the Dongfang family of the Tianyuan Empire..."
Only those whose gifts reach the level of third-level treasures will have their names called out.
After all, in this world of cultivating immortals, strength and the weight of gifts are the capital for being remembered.
Moreover, only cultivators who have reached the Golden Core Realm are qualified to be invited into the innermost courtyard and enjoy higher-level treatment.
The process of this grand ceremony was presided over by people arranged by the Chu family. The Wang family had no experience in such large-scale ceremonies.
The reason why these big families were willing to attend the ceremony and present generous gifts was largely due to the Chu family's face.
Of course, the Chu family will have to find an opportunity to repay this favor in the future.
The entire ceremony went very smoothly, without any melodramatic plots like bride kidnapping.
Even Zuo Wentian kept chatting with Situ Qingqing the whole time, but nothing went wrong.
Until Chu Qingluan, wearing a fiery red wedding dress, slowly landed on a blue phoenix bird that was several dozen meters tall.
Her fairy-like temperament instantly attracted the attention of many young monks in the field, and everyone cast astonished glances at her.
At this moment, a roar was heard, and a lion a hundred meters in size with flames on its four hooves flew over the heads of the crowd.
This lion exudes a domineering Nascent Soul aura that is frightening.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Bin, who was two meters tall and wearing fiery red spiritual armor, jumped down from the head of the flaming lion.
"Thank you all for coming to Qingluan and I's dual cultivation ceremony. I am Wang Bin, the Lord of Baiyun City!"
Wang Bin's voice resounded throughout the venue.
All the cultivators present widened their eyes. They didn't expect that Wang Bin could have a mount that was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. This was quite rare.
Moreover, most of the cultivators present saw the legendary Lord Mad Thunder at such a close distance for the first time, and their hearts were filled with awe.
Zuo Wentian felt the aura emanating from Wang Bin and secretly guessed that this must be a special physique.
The moment Zhang Fei and the protectors beside him saw Wang Bin, they also felt that the circulation of the Blood Sea Meridian in their bodies accelerated.
The two looked at each other subconsciously, a hint of desire flashed in their eyes, but they quickly looked away calmly.
In fact, in order to appear more imposing when he made his debut, Wang Bin spent three thousand high-quality spirit stones to ask the Lion King to be his mount.
As the patriarch of the Flame Mad Lion clan, the Lion King naturally could not refuse the temptation of these three thousand high-grade spirit stones. It didn't matter to him anyway.
Afterwards, Chu Tianyan appeared. As a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, he was highly respected and personally presided over the dual cultivation ceremony.
According to the procedure, they first asked for permission from heaven and earth, and then the man and woman swore an oath. The whole process took two hours to complete.
This also means that the two Chu families have officially become in-laws, and the purpose of the alliance between the two families has been achieved.
Wang Bin has been cooperating with the Chu family throughout the whole process. After all, Chu Qingluan is only his Taoist partner in name.
Moreover, he was drained by Liu Yiyi last night and now he has no interest in women.
Chu Qingluan's mind was full of thoughts, and no one knew what she was thinking about.
After the whole process was over and the guests had eaten and drunk their fill, Wang Bin finally announced:
“Thank you all for your blessings, I know many of you are no longer focused on this ceremony.
So, the first auction of Wang’s Auction House officially begins!
During this period, we have received many treasures sent by fellow Taoists, and the number of treasures at this auction has doubled than expected.
Fellow Daoists with invitations please enter with your invitations. Fellow Daoists without invitations can go to the square and watch the auction through the projection array."
As soon as Wang Bin finished speaking, many people stood up immediately. They came here for the auction.
"Qingluan, I have arranged a few private rooms on the third floor for your Chu family.
I need to sit on the stage and intimidate those people, so that no one will be greedy for the treasure and can't help but grab it.
I'll let Tianqing take you there, and I won't accompany you."
Chu Qingluan's expression was somewhat complicated. She nodded and sighed secretly in her heart.
The most important moment in a woman's life passed by so quickly.
But this was all arranged by the family, and she could only accept it. Soon, she adjusted her mood, waved her hand, put away her wedding dress, and left with the Chu family.
After Wang Bin reacted, he also put away the fiery red spiritual armor on his body, thinking that he would probably only wear it this once in his life.
He gave Dujuan some instructions and asked her to handle the follow-up matters here.
He also walked towards the auction house. After all, all the items in this auction were with him. With so many valuable items, it would be safest to keep them with him.
Wang Bin came to the backstage of the auction house and saw Liu Yiyi debugging the projection formation.
On a whim, he asked Liu Yiyi to project the auction situation to the outer city of Baiyun City.
As soon as Liu Yiyi saw Wang Bin, she said coquettishly:
“Husband, what’s the point of projecting the auction situation onto the square?
Those who can't even get an invitation to the auction are generally low-level monks, who definitely don't have much money and purchasing power.
Besides, will this make the people attending the auction unhappy?
After all, they might have some concerns because they are being watched by so many people.
You have now set up the projection formation in the outer city of Baiyun City. There are so many mortals in the outer city. What can they afford to buy?
The lowest price items auctioned at our Wang's Auction House are all third-tier treasures!"
Although Liu Yiyi was complaining, her hands did not stop moving, and she was still carefully adjusting the projection formation.
"Haha, today is the dual cultivation ceremony for Chu Qingluan and I. I originally wanted to marry you today, but the Chu family disagreed.
I thought about it and didn’t insist. After all, that would make the Chu family lose face.
Don't be angry, your husband will accompany you well tonight, and we will have a wedding night, hehe."
Wang Bin said with a smile.
Liu Yiyi's face turned red, but her heart felt warm:
"Okay, I get it. It's because our Liu family is so weak. Forget it.
Why don't you tell me why you went to so much trouble to create a projection array?"
Seeing the smile on Liu Yiyi's face, Wang Bin felt relieved and explained:
"Yiyi, you have to know that the majority of people in the world of immortal cultivation are low-level cultivators and mortals.
Mortals are limited by their means of transportation and their ability to spread information is limited, but their advantage lies in their numbers.
Moreover, it is possible for monks to appear among the children of mortals.
The same goes for low-level cultivators. Some of them may be able to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment or Golden Core realm in the future.
In particular, some of them may have valuable treasures in their hands, but they don’t know it or they dare not sell them.
When these independent cultivators arrive in other immortal cultivation cities, they will not be able to help but show off their experiences of attending auctions in Baiyun City and their knowledge. Isn't this a disguised promotion of our Wang's Auction House?
As for whether the guests participating in the auction will be unhappy because they are being watched by so many people, or even stop coming to our auction in the future, your idea is wrong.
Under the gaze of so many people, these families will raise the prices of the items for the sake of their own reputation.
Whether they come to the auction or not depends on whether we have the treasures they need.
Just like the Nascent Soul Puppets and Void Stones on the auction list, even if we sell each invitation for 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones, those who should come will still come.
You have to remember that if an auction house wants to become bigger and stronger, it mainly depends on attracting people with the items it auctions.
As long as we have valuable treasures to auction, we don't have to worry about no one coming.
Where do these attractive treasures come from? The main thing is to attract those independent cultivators, or cultivators who want to sell more spirit stones, and let them send their treasures to us.
So, don't always focus on those big families. If they have good things, they will never bring them to our auction house for auction.
Therefore, this projection array is very important, it is to spread the word!"
