41: Chapter 41 Yin-Yang Nine Revolutions! Heavenly Yin Nine Revolutions!

Li Guidai stepped into the bridal chamber, reeking of alcohol, his footsteps slightly unsteady.

The bright red wedding candles flickered, casting an intimate and warm glow over the room. Zhuge Yue sat upright on the edge of the bed, which was covered with a quilt embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in water, wearing a magnificent phoenix coronet on her head.

The beaded curtain hung down, shielding her breathtakingly beautiful face. The formal red phoenix coronet and ceremonial robes further accentuated her usual cool, moon-like temperament, making her appear incomparably bright and graceful, while also bringing a touch of unprecedented solemnity and shyness.

Although the two were already an old married couple and even had children, wearing the phoenix coronet and ceremonial robes so formally, performing the rites under everyone's witness, and then waiting alone in the bridal chamber!

This feeling... was indeed different from the past, causing her heartbeat to quicken involuntarily and her cheeks to flush slightly.

Li Guidai walked over unsteadily, his alcohol-laden breath misting against the beaded curtain.

He reached out his hand, somewhat clumsily yet with immense solemnity, and gently lifted the red bridal veil.

The beaded curtains collided with a delicate sound. Beneath the veil was Zhuge Yue's stunning face, now flushed with a rosy hue.

Under the candlelight, her eyes shimmered, shy and timid, her beauty breathtaking.

"Yueer," Li Guidai was somewhat mesmerized, his drunken, hazy eyes filled with infinite affection. "Today... you are truly beautiful."

He picked up the nuptial wine that had been prepared beforehand and handed one cup to her. "Come, let us drink the nuptial wine."

Zhuge Yue blushed, responding with a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum: "Okay~!"

She took the wine cup, her arm intertwined with Li Guidai's, and tilted her head back to drink the slightly spicy liquid. As the wine entered her throat, it seemed to ignite a certain expectation, deepening the blush on her face.

Afterward... things proceeded naturally to the main event, omitting the ten thousand words of hearty indulgence.

...

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window lattice into the room. Zhuge Yue slowly awoke, and the moment she opened her eyes, she met Li Guidai's smiling, wide-awake gaze, which was fixed unblinkingly upon her.

The scenes of last night's madness flooded her mind instantly. Zhuge Yue turned bright red, even to her earlobes, and in her shyness, she pulled up the quilt, wanting to cover her face.

Li Guidai chuckled softly and pulled her, along with the quilt, into his embrace.

Zhuge Yue remained buried in his chest for a moment before suddenly remembering something. She lifted her still-crimson face, hesitated, and whispered:

"Husband... when I was watching the ceremony yesterday, I saw the way Sister Hua Lulu and Sister Kuang Bingbing were looking at you... it seemed different from usual, hiding some other kind of affection!"

"They are both good women as well. If... if you are interested, perhaps..."

Upon hearing this, Li Guidai immediately straightened his face, assuming an air of upright righteousness, and interrupted her:

"What is my wife saying! In my heart, there is only you! Hua Lulu, Kuang Bingbing, even Ying'er at home, and those three concubines you gifted me earlier—even if they were all bundled together, they couldn't compare to a single strand of my Yueer's hair! In my heart, you are always number one!"

These words were spoken with resounding force and genuine sincerity. Zhuge Yue felt as sweet as if honey had been poured into her heart, but then she thought of certain practical issues.

She still blushed and admitted, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz: "But husband... your... your Ancient Kidney Physique is simply too... powerful... I alone, am truly... unable to hold up..."

This was almost the most "daring" complaint she could possibly make.

Seeing his wife bring the practical problem to the table again, Li Guidai knew he couldn't get by on declarations of loyalty alone, so he said with a playful, rascal-like attitude:

"Alright, alright, alright, you can manage it yourself, my wife, I will listen to you! But before that—"

He changed the subject, his eyes gleaming with eagerness, "Let us attend to the real business first, and break through to the Golden Core stage together!"

Upon hearing "break through to the Golden Core stage" and recalling his unique "dual cultivation" breakthrough method, Zhuge Yue immediately wore an expression of wanting to cry but having no tears!

She tried to change the subject: "Husband, according to proper etiquette, we... we should first offer tea and pay our respects to Father and Mother..."

Li Guidai chuckled, revealing a lecherous "you know what I mean" smile, and his large hands were already beginning to behave improperly:

"Never mind those two old folks! Our Li family doesn't have so many stuffy rules! My parents are dying for us to give them another grandson or granddaughter soon!"

"Come, come, come, cultivation is like sailing against the current; if you don't advance, you retreat! Time is of the essence; we must seize the time and focus on condensing the Golden Core!"

"Ah—!"

"Husband, you... mm..." Zhuge Yue's protests were quickly drowned out!

Once again, omitting the ten thousand words of intense battle...

Only vaguely could one hear Zhuge Yue's tearful accusation: "This... this is what you call breaking through to the Golden Core... it's clearly... it's going to cost me my life..."

One day, a month later, the previously clear sky over Ganlu Town suddenly changed!

"Boom—!"

An indescribable pressure erupted from the top floor of the "Yuegui Pavilion." This time, Li Guidai deliberately did not have the system block the natural phenomena!

Immediately following, two completely different yet equally magnificent and vast natural phenomena surged into the sky without any concealment, illuminating the firmament!

On the left side of the horizon, vast spiritual energy gathered crazily, actually condensing into a gigantic, slowly rotating Yin-Yang Taiji diagram!

This Taiji diagram was not static; its Yin fish and Yang fish flowed ceaselessly as if they were living creatures, emitting an extremely profound Dao rhythm.

Even more shocking was that a magnificent phantom of a giant dragon soared, circling the Taiji diagram!

This dragon's body was half-black and half-white, its dragon scales shimmering with chaotic luster. Its black dragon eye was as deep as an abyss, while its white dragon eye was as clear as a spring. Every time it circled, it caused the surrounding spiritual energy to surge like tides, and the sound of its dragon roar resonated through the nine heavens, as if expounding the supreme truth of Yin-Yang rotation and the creation of life!

On the right side of the sky, there was another breathtakingly beautiful scene.

Endless moonlight, as if summoned, condensed into a bright and cool full moon. The moonlight fell, bathing the entire Ganlu Town in a holy radiance.

Before the full moon, a slender and graceful phantom of a fairy danced lightly. Her robes fluttered, and her beauty was peerless, as if she were a fairy of the Moon Palace who did not consume mortal food, spinning lightly around that bright moon.

Wherever the fairy phantom passed, specks of crystalline moonlight scattered like a dreamy spiritual rain, and the air was filled with a crisp and pure aura that was captivating!

"Yin-Yang Taiji suppresses the firmament, black and white divine dragon circles the Dao diagram!"

"Moon Palace fairy dances in clear radiance, the bright moon reflects her fairy posture!"

These two great phenomena stood side by side in the sky, covering almost the entire Ganlu Town, and everyone was stunned by this earth-shaking sight!

Whether it was the various major families who had just submitted, or the passersby who had been watching from the sidelines, everyone now clearly felt those two Golden Core auras—as powerful as the rising sun, yet completely distinct!

One contained a vitality of Yin-Yang fusion, both domineering and inclusive!

The other exuded a cold, aloof, pure, and powerful moonlight force!
