"Tsk tsk, it’s really beautiful... If our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion could prepare for me like this on my wedding day, there would truly be no regrets!"

"Yes, indeed. Our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion now has billions of disciples, and our strength has grown significantly, no longer comparable to those minor sects. If we could display such a grand ceremony, it would be so prestigious!"

"Haha, to have such pomp like Senior Sister Luoo, one must have a husband like the Gongyang Family."

"Indeed. It is said that the Gongyang Family is a prominent family in the Middle-Class Planet Region with deep heritage. Senior Sister Luoo is lucky to marry into the Gongyang Family."

"You know nothing; don’t spread false words!"

"What’s wrong? Did we say something incorrect?"

"The Gongyang Family is indeed strong, but not as great as you imagine. Besides, do you not know who Senior Sister Luoo actually likes?"

"Yes, yes! I heard some rumors that... Senior Sister Luoo is marrying Gongyang Qing just to completely give up."

"Alas... Senior Brother Su is truly cold-hearted!"

"Senior Sister Luoo isn’t ugly, she has a great figure, and she loves Senior Brother Su so deeply. What do you think? Why does Senior Brother Su disagree? It’s truly baffling! If it were me, I’d marry Senior Sister Luoo regardless of the cost!"

"Affairs of the heart are unpredictable; we’re just outsiders. If we were really in Senior Brother Su’s shoes, perhaps we would make the same choice as he did."

"I heard Senior Brother Su is coming today to send off Senior Sister Luoo?"

"Such a cruel heart, knowing full well that Senior Sister Luoo loves him, yet sending her away himself."

"If it were me, perhaps I wouldn’t marry Senior Sister Luoo, but I definitely wouldn’t come to be the one sending her off!"

...

In the square before the Outer Sect Disciple Mountain, there stood many Outer Sect Disciples.

Today, they were not cultivating, but instead were accompanying Luoo Ning’s departure.

"Buzz~"

In a certain moment, there was a fluctuation in the Void, and from within emerged the most beautiful figure of the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.

"Greetings, Pavilion Master!"

Seeing this figure, the disciples immediately bowed and spoke respectfully.

Ren Qinghuan turned around, glanced at the crowd, and coldly said, "Speak less and do more."

"Yes!"

The disciples all showed embarrassment, hurriedly responding.

Ren Qinghuan landed before Luoo Ning’s Cave Mansion, lightly stepped forward, and walked inside.

Today, Luoo Ning was exceptionally beautiful.

The golden crown on her head made her appear regal, like a queen.

The fiery red robe, embroidered with dragons and phoenixes, interwoven with golden Pattern Marks, was strikingly gorgeous.

A light makeup covered the previous traces of fatigue on her delicate face, effectively masking it all.

"Pavilion Master."

Seeing Ren Qinghuan enter, Luoo Ning immediately tried to get up.

"No need, you just stay seated."

Ren Qinghuan waved his hand, adorned in a long dress, and sat beside Luoo Ning.

"Are you ready?" Ren Qinghuan asked.

"Yes." Luoo Ning gently nodded.

Seeing this, Ren Qinghuan fell silent briefly, then continued, "There is a saying you may have heard: better to dismantle ten temples than ruin one marriage. I shouldn’t be saying this, but—"

"If you regret now, I’ll immediately withdraw everything and act as if nothing happened. You, Luoo Ning, will remain a disciple of my Heavenly Mountain Pavilion. If I, Ren Qinghuan, don’t speak, no one else can touch you."

Luoo Ning’s delicate body trembled, countless grievances arose from within, transformed into tears that welled in her eyes.

Yet, she held back, reminding herself that today is her wedding day—she must not cry, must not cry...

Moments later, she stabilized her emotions and said, "Pavilion Master, I only regret not having high talent, so ever since joining the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, I’ve remained just an Outer Sect Disciple."

Ren Qinghuan remained silent.

"Give this Memory Crystal to him; let him see it after I’m gone."

Luoo Ning forced a smile, took out a Memory Crystal, and handed it to Ren Qinghuan.

"Have you really decided?"

Ren Qinghuan’s voice softened significantly.

"Yes."

Luoo Ning took a deep breath, nodding resolutely.

Seeing this, Ren Qinghuan refrained from speaking further.

What needed saying and what shouldn’t be said had already been spoken.

Luoo Ning’s choice could not be interfered with.

Standing up, Ren Qinghuan walked to the Cave Mansion’s entrance, paused, and suddenly turned back, saying, "You look beautiful today."

Luoo Ning raised her eyes, looking at Ren Qinghuan.

All she heard was Ren Qinghuan continue, "At any time, the bride is always the most beautiful woman."

With that, Ren Qinghuan left the Cave Mansion.

Luoo Ning couldn’t hold back anymore; those tears she tried so hard to restrain poured out like a flood.

"No matter how beautiful, it’s ultimately not for him..."

...

The sun gradually rose, marking the transition of the day from morning to noon.

In a certain Teleportation Formation, ripples appeared, and Su Han’s figure emerged from within.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Su!"

Seeing Su Han, the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion disciples guarding the Teleportation Formation hurriedly saluted.

"Hmm."

Su Han slightly nodded and proceeded onward.

Only after his figure disappeared did the disciples quietly start discussing among themselves.

"Alas, what a pity!"

"Yes, Senior Brother Su and Senior Sister Luoo are perfect matches, like a golden boy and jade girl!"

"I thought Senior Brother Su wouldn’t come, but he did... And even dressed so nicely."

"Indeed, the hearts of the strong are cold!"

Their murmurs were naturally beyond Su Han’s hearing.

However, by skimming through the Void, Su Han understood some of the expressions and glances from the disciples below.

Before long, the Outer Sect Disciple Mountain appeared in his sight.

Su Han saw the festive scene, the many disciples bustling about, and the fiery red carpet hanging before the Cave Mansion.

Undoubtedly, this would be used when Gongyang Qing marries Luoo Ning.

For some reason, upon seeing these, Su Han’s heart became strangely restless.

This restlessness was inexplicable, forcefully suppressed by Su Han.

Amidst the many gazes, Su Han slowly stepped up the stairs, reaching Luoo Ning’s Cave Mansion.

He hesitated slightly, wanting to enter the Cave Mansion but unsure what to say should he enter.

Moreover, going in at this moment, what would it mean?

According to the customs here, on a woman’s wedding day, no man other than the groom should enter the bride’s chamber.

This Cave Mansion of the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion was chosen by Luoo Ning as her chamber.

From here, she became a disciple of the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.

And she would depart from here, forever leaving the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.
