"Ah? Marriage?"
Xing Wu's sudden proposal almost left Ye Yun speechless.
Only after a full few seconds did he jolt awake, sitting bolt upright.
He stared at Xing Wu with wide, incredulous eyes.
"Isn't this a bit too sudden?"
Although Ye Yun had indeed considered the matter of his wedding with Xing Wu before, it had only remained in the realm of thought. Now that it was suddenly brought up, he was a little taken aback.
Hearing this, Xing Wu walked up to him, raised an eyebrow, and asked him word by word.
"What's wrong? You don't want to?"
This was a question that could be fatal. Ye Yun paused, then quickly replied with a smile.
"Of course not! I was just too surprised. I didn't expect you to suddenly bring up something like this!"
"I just thought of it too. I feel like we should take our relationship a step further."
Xing Wu smiled and asked again.
"So, what do you think? Are we getting married or not?"
Ye Yun had no reason to hesitate with this choice. He nodded decisively and cheerfully.
"Of course! If the wife has already proposed, how can I refuse!"
If it hadn't been for the fusion of the Great Thousand Worlds and the subsequent matters of the Qian Yuan Domain, this matter would likely have been put on the agenda long ago!
Upon receiving his affirmation, Xing Wu's lips curved upward slightly, and she continued, "Speaking of which, do you still remember what we agreed on back then?"
"Agreed on?"
"Yes, about the wedding."
"Uh..."
Ye Yun fell into thought, while Xing Wu looked at him with a gentle expression.
Undoubtedly, if he dared to say he had forgotten, he would not be met with anything good.
And with her current overwhelming strength, who knew what kind of torment he would suffer!
Immediately, Ye Yun's mind raced at 120% capacity. Fortunately, he finally remembered.
"Oh right, I think I did say before that I would definitely give you a grand and magnificent wedding!"
Ye Yun recalled that this was something he had casually mentioned during a past chat, and he hadn't expected her to remember it until now.
Ye Yun couldn't help but conclude one thing: women's attention to certain details was truly terrifying...
Seeing that he had recalled it, Xing Wu nodded with satisfaction.
"Good. Since you said it back then, you must do it, right?"
Ye Yun immediately smiled and said, "Of course, our wedding must naturally be grand and magnificent!"
"Let's not even mention the Great Thousand Worlds. At the very least, I want us to have a wedding that is unprecedented in the Celestial Domain!"
As it was a lifelong event, it naturally had to be taken seriously, and now they had the ability to do so.
He and Xing Wu had come this far together, enduring hardships and numerous life-threatening crises.
How could he possibly let her down?
At the very least, he wanted to make her the happiest woman in the history of the Celestial Domain!
At this moment, Xing Wu reached out and patted his shoulder, smiling.
"Since that's the case, the arrangements for this wedding will be entirely up to you."
"No problem, I'll take care of it!"
Ye Yun readily agreed. After all, it was just a wedding; he didn't believe he couldn't figure it out.
After speaking, he took a deep breath and said, "But before that, let's gather everyone and announce this matter first."
Their status in the Celestial Domain was extraordinary. If they were to hold a wedding, it would definitely be a major event for everyone.
Xing Wu understood this and nodded with a smile.
"Yes, I'll go notify everyone now."
...
Meanwhile, in contrast to the relaxed and joyful atmosphere in the Celestial Domain, where wedding preparations were already underway.
Thousands of light-years away in another world.
Inside a grand hall in the Qian Yuan Domain.
The Qian Yuan Star Lord sat at the head, looking at the person reporting the news with a dark and furious expression.
"Everyone? Not a single one alive?"
"Yes... yes."
The messenger trembled slightly, and the many high-ranking officials waiting around also remained as silent as cicadas, none daring to make a sound.
Upon hearing this, the Qian Yuan Star Lord felt somewhat drained, and his body slumped back into the chair.
"How is this possible?! How could this be! It's absolutely impossible..."
This time, his voice lacked its former strength, sounding more like that of an elderly man.
Just moments ago, he had been eagerly awaiting good news from the Bei Guang Domain. Instead, he had received devastating tidings.
The life jade slips of all those who participated in the Bei Guang Domain operation had successively shattered, meaning they had all met their demise.
The crucial point was that they still didn't know exactly what had happened in the Bei Guang Domain.
Had some special变故 occurred there, causing everyone to perish, or had they met with misfortune when attacking the Ling Luo Domain?
If it were the former, he might be able to accept it. At least everyone had suffered immense losses, and the balance of power between them would not be significantly affected.
But if it were the latter, although the possibility was extremely low, if it were true, then things would be dire.
Finally, the Qian Yuan Star Lord, gradually recovering, slowly sat up and looked at everyone with a cold face.
"Send more people to the Bei Guang Domain. Investigate for me! No matter what, find out what happened there!"
"Yes!"
Many responded in the hall, but a considerable number also grew increasingly worried. Could something truly major have happened?
What if the Ling Luo Domain's counterattack was successful? Then the survival of the Qian Yuan Domain would be in question.
They didn't believe that the Ling Luo Star Lord on the other side was a kind and benevolent person.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have reached her current position and possessed such immense strength. She would definitely have seized the opportunity to completely conquer them!
As things stood, they could only rely on the God of Fate, hoping that fate was on their side...
...
The perspective shifts back to the Celestial Domain.
After leaving the sleeping quarters, Xing Wu quickly summoned all the important figures and familiar individuals residing in the Celestial Domain.
Without directly stating the purpose, she had everyone gather in the assembly hall of Mount Chaofeng.
There were dozens of people gathered here now. They were all related to Ye Yun, or were the highest-ranking officials of the Celestial Domain Alliance or the Divine City. Their strength was at least True Immortal or even Emperor level.
On the online side were, of course, Xiao Lingluo, Yuan Yi, and Luo Jiutian, the Heavenly Gods of the Divine City.
At this moment, everyone looked at Ye Yun with puzzled expressions. Feng Qingxian was the first to speak.
"What exactly do you want us all to come here for?"
Ye Yun looked at everyone, then at Xing Wu beside him.
He then took Xing Wu's hand and took a deep breath.
"It's like this. I've called everyone here today for no other reason than to announce something!"
"Xing Wu and I plan to get married soon!"
