The Rebirth of an Immortal Cultivator
Chapter 279: Engagement Day
Kunlun Village was on a vacant lot in the southeastern part of Zhan City, which was a barren land covering dozens of thousands of square miles, but after their arrival to the Main Star, it was only after their arrival, the land turned fertile due to Hong Xi Ning's help and was well-treated.
A region with a size of 120 × 120 miles is very large, even large families do not have an area of that size in Zhan City. But because there is an unwritten rule, which says anyone can control barren territory, as long as it is able to develop it, then Kunlun Village has the right to get an area of that size.
Kunlun Village was still unaware of the news of Mo Lian getting engaged, they were decorating the village just because of orders from Hong Xi Jiang.
Mo Lian was already in front of his gate, and was being held back by four guards dressed in dark blue clothes.
"Sorry, if you want to enter, then you must pay attention to the sign—"
Mo Lian took out the green Dongfangzhi Patriarch Jade Plate, inscribed ' ⁇ ' in gold and there was a similar emblem underneath.
The emblem of the Sun is surrounded by a clean white line, with a blue sword in the middle of the Sun. This emblem was the same as the one above the gate of Kunlun Village.
The guard was silent as he looked at it, feeling fear and his body trembling. They were ordinary citizens, who then studied cultivation in Kunlun Village and worked here. They got the knowledge if there was a Jade Plate capable of ruling Kunlun Village, which even Wu Yengtu and Xu Xumei alone did not have.
The Jade Plate of the Sun Sword! The Patriarchal Mark of Dongfangzhi Sect! The owner of Kunlun Village!
"If it's less." Mo Lian again showed off the Third Disciple Jade Plate and Zhongjian Jade Plate.
"Is it still necessary?" Mo Lian planned to take out even more, yet she was immediately stopped.
"Enough. Please come in."
Mo Lian raised next to her eyebrows, feeling unpleasant as she still wanted to bring out the other's identity. He kept all the signs, then walked into Kunlun Village.
Kunlun Village, as the name suggests, is a village that is in the city and many people who also visit here, visible from inns lined up and other buildings.
Outsiders trading here seemed to be subject to tax charges, in contrast to the free natives.
The spiritual aura here was also more than Zhan City, although it was not up to a third of the aura within Zhongjian Sect. Mo Lian also sensed that there was a tower located in the center of Kunlun Village, it was the Cultivation Tower that had a certain amount of aura and pressure on each floor.
"It looks like Kunlun Village gave the Cultivation Tower a destination."
The cultivation tower was indeed not rare at all, but it could only be possessed by a great power whose income for a year reached 30,000,000 High quality Spiritual Stones. Then if there was a place that allowed entering the Cultivation Tower just by paying for some Spiritual Stones, there would be many to come.
Mo Lian continued walking and sometimes disappeared while in the crowd, who then moved to another place, then reappeared, and so on until arriving in front of the spacious luxurious residence.
"Grandfather! Grandma!" Mo Lian shouted loudly in front of the gate, which attracted the attention of all the passersby.
The two gate guards gasped when they heard Mo Lian's cry, they moved about to chase, but the gate opened first.
There was a very excited woman, who never came out of the Central Residence in Kunlun Village.
Xu Xumei ran towards Mo Lian with both hands open, who then tightly hugged Mo Lian. "When did you come?"
"Maybe a month ago?" Mo Lian tilted her head, not knowing for sure when she came.
Xu Xumei looked up at Mo Lian. "If you've been here since a month ago, why don't you tell Grandma?!" He slightly shouted in annoyance with his waist-rigged hands.
Mo Lian chuckled at the annoyed Xu Xumei. "I'm sorry, I'm focused on practicing and doing some of the Master's work."
"Aah!" Xu Xumei flinched with her mouth slightly open, remembering something when Mo Lian alluded about Hong Xi Ning. "Talking about Master, I heard your Master is getting engaged, are you okay? Don't you love her so much."
Mo Lian was stunned then smiled lightly. "I'm fine, by the way I came because I wanted to tell you to come to Zhongjian Sect tomorrow, at the time when Master is engaged."
Xu Xumei was speechless staring lovingly at Mo Lian. She knew that Mo Lian was very sad when she heard that Hong Xi Ning would be engaged, let alone tomorrow when she saw Hong Xi Ning carry out her engagement.
"Don't be sad, everything must be fine, you can definitely get another woman." Xu Xumei re-hugged Mo Lian trying to comfort her.
Mo Lian felt uncomfortable because of this, but she still did not plan to tell him. He wanted to give a surprise tomorrow, especially to Elder Jia who had previously strongly opposed him as the Third Disciple.
But, Qin Nian, Yun Ning, Ong Hei Yun and Hu Lan Yue already knew about her who was going to be engaged to Hong Xi Ning.
"Thank you."
Xu Xumei looked up and smiled, then pulled Mo Lian's hand to bring her inside the Central Residence.
Mo Lian relaxed in Kunlun Village until night to discuss about her adventure from Earth to finally get to the Main Star. Then he returned at midnight, though he was asked to stay the night. But of course he could not because he had to wake up early.

The next day, Zhongjian Sect
The awaited day had finally arrived and Hong Xi Ning's engagement day was broadcast live to all corners of the Main Star, as well as the stars around as this was an incredible and must-see moment.
Especially, for the real identity of the man who obtained Hong Xi Ning.
A great many came to the Zhongjian Sect, not least of the 9 other Major Organizations besides the Zhongjian Sect.
Dozens of Dao Immortal had already come to sit at the place that had been provided, they held back the killing intent as strongly as possible due to anger towards the prospective son-in-law of Hong Xi Jiang. Almost all of the Immortal Dao that came today were heartbroken ranks for being rejected by Hong Xi Ning, even before proposing to her.
When many were hiding a killing aura, there was suddenly an extremely fragrant scent scattered and fused with the surrounding atmosphere.
Bang out!
The Sect Hall was wide open with strong gales blowing, visible from within the hall came out four human figures, who were in pairs with each other.
Hong Xi Jiang with Wang Yue Fei and Mo Qian with Su Jingmei.
Mang Xian Guo and Xia Xinxin were shocked when they saw Mo Lian's parents coming out together with Ancestor Hong from the Sect Hall. From this, the two of them could already guess who exactly Hong Xi Ning was.
Today's sacred ceremonies are not very much, and are only made as simple as possible, because they want to save time. Because after this, Hong Xi Ning and Mo Lian would confine themselves, until an unknown time. But that is if the event goes smoothly, even if it seems impossible.
The two pairs of newly-prepared married couples coming out of the Sect Hall parted ways in two different directions, going towards the red chair that had been prepared on the side of the courtyard that was already lined with red cloth.
Dayang who was in the middle of the stone stairs, wearing a white subordinate with floral embroidery, the light green top lowered its head while bowing slightly towards all the invited guests.
"Without making small talk, die we welcome the main star today!" The dayang looked up and spoke in a loud enough voice.
The attention of all the invited guests was fixed on the opened Sect Hall, no one blinked in the slightest because they wanted to see it well. Until a dozen seconds passed, no one came out of there.
Woshis!
The wind again blew fiercely with the abundant flow of spiritual energy in Zhongjian Sect, from the empty air also seen the leaves of trees begin to fall like a drizzle
These leaves are the leaves of the Zhiliao Tree.
Not long after, there was a golden yellow ray that descended from the sky illuminating the courtyard of the Sect Hall, making everyone look up at the sky. It could be seen by everyone's eyes, the pair of lovers wearing Cheongsam were red in color.
The elder as well as all the disciples from Zhongjian Sect, the 10 Elders of Kunlun Village, and the other invited guests could not help but be shocked on their faces when they saw the man who was Hong Xi Ning's match.
The elder of Kunlun Village had indeed seen Mo Qian and Su Jingmei coming out of the Sect Hall, but they were throwing away thoughts about Mo Lian being Hong Xi Ning's fiancee. They thought it was a natural thing since Mo Qian was a disciple of Hong Xi Jiang.
Mo Lian and Hong Xi Ning floated downwards slowly. The expressions of the two looked extremely happy, signaling there was no coercion in this engagement.
