Chapter 167 Farewell
Inside the bridal chamber, the candlelight flickered, illuminating the figures of Shi An and Yun Xi, who were closely embracing each other.
The surroundings were both warm and romantic, with red silk hanging gently, a brocade quilt embroidered with dragons and phoenixes covering the bed, and a faint fragrance wafting in the air. Everything seemed so perfect and harmonious.
The hustle and bustle outside seemed irrelevant to them; at this moment, this small world belonged only to the two of them.
Shi An slowly approached and gently lifted the red veil from Yun Xi's head.
Suddenly, a stunningly beautiful face came into view, her features as delicate and alluring as a newly blossoming flower.
Yunxi lowered her head shyly, but Shi An gently lifted her chin, bringing their eyes together again. He said softly, "Xi'er, you are so beautiful."
Yunxi's cheeks flushed even redder, but she bravely met Shi An's gaze, letting him look at her.
The next moment, Shi An gently took her hand in his. Those hands were soft and boneless, yet they carried an indescribable warmth and strength. He gazed at Yun Xi with deep affection, his eyes filled with love: "Xi'er, from this day forward, you are the only one for me, Shi An, in this life!"
"I promise you that no matter how much wind and rain we encounter in the future, I will stand in front of you and shelter you from the storm."
Upon hearing this, Yunxi's face instantly flushed red, and tears of happiness welled up in her eyes. She gently leaned on Shi An's shoulder, her voice soft and sweet: "Brother An, you are also the only one for me in this life."
"Although my talent may not be as good as yours, and I don't know if I can go all the way with you, no matter what happens in the future, I will never let you be alone."
After she finished speaking, she slowly raised her head, and their eyes met in the air, as if a thousand words were being conveyed at that moment.
Then, the two smiled at each other, their tacit understanding and deep affection needing no further explanation.
As the night deepened and the candlelight in the bridal chamber gradually dimmed, Shi An slowly approached and gently kissed Yun Xi's forehead.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still, leaving only the sound of their heartbeats echoing in the quiet bridal chamber.
Nothing was said that night, and before long the moon set and the sun rose, and a new day began.
Early in the morning, Shi An and Yun Xi walked out of the bridal chamber hand in hand.
The newlyweds radiated happiness. Yunxi's eyes still held the shyness and sweetness of the previous night, while Shi An stood tall and proud, full of vigor, with a satisfied smile always on his lips.
However, at this time, the Tian Shen Mountain was already a scene of bustling activity, and it was not a festive one, but a different kind of busyness.
Upon hearing this, Shi An and Yun Xi exchanged a glance, instantly understanding each other's intentions.
They had anticipated all of this, because the reason why the various races came to attend their wedding was just a side thing; their real purpose was to use the formation of the Heavenly God Mountain to leave the desolate region, go to the upper realm, and avoid the great calamity.
Indeed, among these forces, apart from a few who genuinely came to celebrate Shi An and his wife's wedding, the rest were only there to use the Heavenly God Mountain formation to leave the desolate region.
Now that the wedding is over and Tian Shen Shan has given them enough face, there's no need to pay too much attention to them.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the divine magic circle, which had been repaired during the wedding preparations, was activated, its light shining brightly and a powerful force emanating from it.
"Remember, wherever you are, protect yourself."
Seeing this, Yun Canghai couldn't help but stroke Yun Xi's hair, bidding her a final farewell, as if he wanted to pour all his love and entrustment into this gentle stroke.
Upon hearing this, Yunxi's eyes reddened, glistening with tears, but she stubbornly held them back. She tightly grasped Yun Canghai's hand, her voice slightly choked, "Grandpa, please take care of yourself. I will miss you often."
Yun Canghai smiled and nodded, then turned his gaze to Shi An, his eyes filled with trust and expectation: "Shi An, I'm entrusting Xiao Xi to you. I believe that with your strength, you will definitely be able to protect her."
Upon hearing Yun Canghai's words, Shi An immediately bowed deeply to Yun Canghai with a firm gaze: "Senior, please rest assured, I, Shi An, will certainly live up to your trust and protect Xiao Xi."
"good!"
Yun Canghai nodded with satisfaction, his eyes filled with trust and expectation. Then, he turned to look at the dazzling divine array, waved his hand, and signaled to everyone that they could begin.
With Yun Canghai's command, guests from various races on Tianshen Mountain began to enter the divine array in an orderly manner. Some were filled with anticipation, while others were reluctant to leave, but without exception, they all hoped to use the power of Tianshen Mountain to escape the impending calamity.
In an instant, light flashed and figures moved about, and the entire Tian Shen Mountain seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious glow.
The powerful figures from each race disappeared one by one, heading towards the distant and mysterious upper realm.
Yunxi stood aside, watching familiar figures disappear into the magic array, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Who knows when we'll meet again after this parting?
After a long while, when the last group of guests had entered the magic array, Yun Canghai took a deep look at Shi An and Yun Xi, then turned around and resolutely stepped into the magic array.
As his figure disappeared, the light of the divine array gradually dimmed, and the entire Heavenly God Mountain returned to its former tranquility.
"Let's go, it's time for us to head back to Shicun."
Looking at the dimming divine array, Shi An helped Yun Xi, who was heartbroken from their separation, back to the Celestial Pavilion. With the help of the Willow God, he led the people of Stone Village on their return journey.
"Buzz!"
With a slight tremor, a spatial passage suddenly appeared in the void, radiating a bluish-green spiritual light, like a green ribbon winding and stretching through the void.
Shi An held Yun Xi's soft hand tightly in one hand, and with a gentle wave of his other hand, led the people of Shi Village into the emerald-green spatial passage.
This passage seemed to be a bridge connecting two worlds, both mysterious and full of unknowns, but under the protection of the Willow God, they moved forward with extraordinary ease.
Inside the spatial passage, light and shadow intertwine, and time seems to lose its meaning at this moment.
"boom!"
After an unknown amount of time, a loud bang suddenly came from the outside world, the void distorted, and the passage seemed somewhat unstable.
However, this did not really affect them, because Liu Shen had already reinforced the area immediately to ensure its complete safety.
Whether it was intentional or not, a fierce aura seemed to shatter the void and wafted in from outside the passage.
Then, a flash of light appeared, and the originally emerald green passage suddenly revealed the outside world. Then they saw an incredible scene—a huge claw emerged from the ground and shattered the clouds in the sky.
It is large and ancient, as if it has been buried underground for countless years. There is still mud between its claws, which has never been removed, bearing the vicissitudes of time.
Clearly, it was this that affected the stability of the channel just now.
