The Corruption Dragon God: Lust System - Chapter 530 - Wedding
Chapter 530 – Wedding
The Gold King and his wife, Yunfeng, remained above Meilin.
Meanwhile, the Emperor and Empress left the audience in shock, positioning themselves beside Qingyi.
Even for those who had heard Jin Hao’s request for the Emperor and Empress to act as Qingyi’s absent family, the scene was enough to elicit gasps.
In their long lives, those present had never seen the monarchs act this way. The gesture was unprecedented, even considering the deep ties between the Gold King and the imperial family.
Qingyi felt uncomfortable with the idea of kneeling before them, especially given the possibility that they were demonic cultists. Now, however, that didn’t matter.
This was Meilin’s special day. He would not allow anything or anyone to spoil the moment. The young couple closed their eyes and bowed their heads in respect.
“Long Qingyi,” the Emperor’s voice echoed. It was cold, calm, and laden with dignity.
“Do you promise, before me, before the heavens, and before whatever values are dear to you, that your words are true and honest?”
“I promise,” Qingyi replied.
Hearing the confirmation, the Empress took a step forward. Her long, delicate fingers reached Qingyi’s head, touching exactly between his beautiful black horns.
Her voice was different from the Emperor’s. It was soft, sweet, and serene, though it carried the slight signs of age.
“And do you accept Jin Meilin as your wife? Do you promise to respect and honor the Jin family, loving and protecting Meilin in sickness and in death?
“I promise,” Qingyi repeated firmly.
Beside him, Jin Hao also opened his mouth to speak.
“Jin Meilin, my daughter, before me, the heavens, and the blood of your parents, do you promise that your words are true and honest?”
“I promise, Father,” Meilin nodded, struggling to contain her excitement as she felt her mother’s hands touch her head.
“And do you promise to accept Long Qingyi as your husband? Do you promise to respect, love, and serve him, both in sickness and in death?”
“Yes, I promise!” Meilin exclaimed excitedly and then raised her bright eyes, meeting her mother’s gaze.
The young couple then stood up.
Their fingers intertwined under the gaze of the Gold King, the White Heron, and the two monarchs of one of the most powerful empires in the immortal heavens.
There was a moment of absolute silence.
Meilin could clearly hear the beating of her own heart as the sweet symphony of Jin Hao’s band entered her ears.
“Then so be it.”
The instant the words were spoken, Meilin turned and threw herself into Qingyi’s arms, planting a passionate kiss on his lips.
With the kiss, the symphony became vibrant. The guests rose en masse, applauding the couple enthusiastically.
Finally, Meilin, the most talented and beloved daughter of the Gold King, was married.
Even political enemies clapped, displaying bitter, forced smiles. The Gold King had not only secured the support of a great talent, but also demonstrated the strength of his bond with the imperial family.
The couple’s lips parted, and they turned to the excited audience.
Qingyi’s other wives, above all, celebrated with shining eyes, focused intensely on Meilin, shouting congratulations to her.
“Hahaha! Let’s begin the banquet, honored guests! This party is just getting started!” Jin Hao laughed loudly beside Yunfeng, hugging Qingyi and Meilin.
The doors of the great hall opened and the Gold King’s servants entered carrying tables, followed by an endless succession of special
delicacies.
There was everything from the meat of spirit beasts from the Ancestral Emperor’s Realm to fish from the frozen lakes of the North. Even a dish of roasted phoenix was served exclusively to the most fortunate guests.
Qingyi and Meilin, unfortunately, still could not give themselves over to each other and had to face the tiresome work of socializing, ensuring that everything went perfectly.
Fortunately, everything comes to an end. As the food and drink satisfied those present, the guests gradually began to leave.
Shortly after midnight, the place was almost empty. Qingyi’s wives had already returned to the world of the mind, and he now carried
Meilin in his arms like a princess.
“Are you comfortable?” he asked as they arrived at the room prepared for their wedding night.
“Yes, thank you, hubby…” A shy smile spread across Meilin’s face. She closed her eyes, pressing her face against her husband’s chest.
With a smile, he lay down on the bed, and Meilin quickly nestled into
his arms.
“Husband, you seem pensive. What’s wrong?” Meilin asked, resting her hand on his chest.
“I…” Qingyi’s lips parted, but he immediately fell silent.
He shouldn’t disturb Meilin with these bad matters, not now.
Meilin’s face showed a subtle initial strangeness, but she decided not
to insist.
If Qingyi wouldn’t talk, it was because he didn’t think it was important enough at the moment.
Her eyes closed, letting exhaustion take over. That night, she didn’t want sex; she just wanted to smell and feel the warmth of her
husband’s protective embrace.
When Meilin finally fell asleep, a voice echoed in Qingyi’s mind.
[What’s wrong?] Ruxue asked.
[I sensed your emotions when you met the Emperor. What happened
between you?]
Qingyi thought for a moment before sighing mentally.
“The Enlightened Emperor has a mana heart, just like the Empress. Apparently, some members of the guard also have it!
[Are you assuming that…?]
‘Yes. He’s probably a demonic cultist. The influence of that damned
Heavenly Demon is much greater than we imagined…
[Ugh… that filthy pig! I’ve had so many chances to slit his throat. Why didn’t my first bearer ever do it? That stubborn woman…]
Qingyi felt Ruxue’s burning anger.
Although she tolerated and even had affection for Ruayn, a half-demon, her hatred for the demon race had not diminished. “Ah… I need to investigate this,” Qingyi repeated to himself silently.
If, in fact, the imperial family had already been corrupted by the celestial demon…
[Be careful, those demonic pigs don’t let their guard down easily]
Ruxue said, eliciting a sigh from Qingyi.
‘I’ll be careful.’
