114: Chapter 114 Return to Poison King Valley
Regarding Tie Ruyun's request for her to stay, the Divine Nun of the South Sea did not decline.
She had traveled all this way and was indeed a bit tired, needing a temporary rest. Moreover, she hadn't seen her young disciple, Jiang Yu Feng, for a long time and truly missed her.
But she did not stay long; after spending only two days at the Tie Manor, she continued her travels.
Meng Li did not have a deep relationship with her, so he didn't pay much attention after hearing about it from Jiang Yu Feng.
A few days later, Meng Li received an invitation from Poison King Valley: Xiao Yuer and Mu Rong Xian were getting married and invited him to the wedding banquet.
Meng Li was somewhat surprised by this.
He remembered Xiao Yuer once saying that in order to better marry Mu Rong Xian, he planned to wait until Yan Nantian recovered before officially getting married. Now that the wedding invitation had been sent, it meant Yan Nantian had already broken out of his vegetative state—which was "called poisoning but was actually more like a seal"—and had returned to normal.
In the original show, Yan Nantian was able to wake up because Xiao Yuer was affected by the Rainbow Seven-Color Poison Mist and sought treatment from Chang Bai Cao.
Chang Bai Cao had a sudden inspiration to use poison to fight poison, transferring the Rainbow Seven-Color Poison Mist to Yan Nantian, thereby curing the strange poison in his body.
Even so, Yan Nantian did not fully recover, suffering from memory loss and mental impairment. Later, through a coincidental Opportunity, he returned to normal, then focused entirely on seeking revenge for Jiang Feng, continuing to act recklessly, and as a result...
He was plotted against by Yao Yue and Lian Xing, nearly losing his life.
After finally escaping death and recovering again, he encountered the fully developed Jiang Yuyan and was taken out shortly after.
It could be said that in the original show, Yan Nantian was just a background character.
Now, due to Meng Li's interference, the Rainbow Seven-Color Poison Mist that the Old Ancestor of the Five Poisons used to ambush Su Ying missed entirely, so it naturally couldn't be transferred to Yan Nantian.
And a strange poison like the Rainbow Seven-Color Poison Mist was extremely difficult to obtain; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was unique.
Even Chang Bai Cao and Su Rushi couldn't possibly produce another portion.
Therefore, for Yan Nantian to recover, the two of them must have used some other strange poison to fight poison with poison.
After finishing these thoughts, Meng Li pulled back his wandering mind and looked at Tie Xinlan, Jiang Yuyan, Xiao Xiao, and Jiang Yu Feng, who were passing the invitation around. He coughed twice and said, "There are only a few days left until the wedding date written on here. I plan to set off tomorrow. Who among you wants to go together?"
The first to respond was Jiang Yu Feng.
She smiled and said, "Mu Rong Xian is my Second Senior Sister. Since I know the news of her marriage, it wouldn't be right if I didn't go."
Jiang Yuyan said obediently, "I'll listen to my husband."
Xiao Xiao said without hesitation, "I'll listen to my husband and the Young Miss."
Tie Xinlan said, "Why don't we all go? Treat it as a trip to relax, and it's a good chance to see Sister Su Ying."
When she said the words "Sister Su Ying," she stared straight at Meng Li with a faint, knowing smile.
Meng Li immediately felt guilty, his expression becoming a bit unnatural. He quickly added, "In that case, let's all go then."
"I'll go prepare the wedding gifts and make some arrangements."
...
The next day.
Meng Li drove the modified carriage, taking Tie Xinlan, Jiang Yuyan, Xiao Xiao, and Jiang Yu Feng away from the Meng Family Village.
The journey was smooth all the way until they reached Poison King Valley.
Not long after entering the valley, Meng Li, who was driving, saw from a distance that there were significant changes inside.
The roads had been widened, and the number of houses had increased, forming a continuous stretch like a small village.
Before even reaching the village entrance, he saw Xiao Yuer and E Tongtian hanging red silk ribbons on the trees.
Xiao Yuer's sharp eyes spotted him; he first waved a greeting, then jumped down from the tree and gave some instructions to E Tongtian.
E Tongtian immediately ran toward the village.
Promptly, Xiao Yuer walked over quickly and said with emotion, "Brother Meng, you've finally arrived. If you hadn't come, I would have had to write a letter to urge you."
Meng Li stopped the carriage and asked in confusion, "Isn't your wedding date on Acquired? I've arrived today, so why are you urging me? Did you change the date last minute?"
"The date hasn't changed," Xiao Yuer replied with a smile, then added meaningfully, "It's just that some people have been looking forward to your arrival day and night."
Meng Li understood instantly that he was likely referring to Su Ying.
Then, Xiao Yuer asked curiously, "Why did you come by carriage? Riding a horse..."
Halfway through his sentence, the carriage curtain was pulled back, and the figures of Tie Xinlan, Jiang Yuyan, Xiao Xiao, and Jiang Yu Feng were revealed one after another.
Xiao Yuer immediately stopped mid-sentence, realization dawning on him.
So Meng Li had brought his whole family to attend his wedding.
To be honest, he was quite happy about this.
After all, a wedding was a joyous occasion; the more people, the livelier and more festive it felt.
However, thinking of the relationship between Su Ying and Meng Li, looking at this formation made his head ache a bit.
I hope no trouble breaks out!
Xiao Yuer prayed internally, but on the surface, he smiled and greeted the four women: "Greetings to the three Sisters-in-law, and hello, Little Junior Sister."
The three women, including Tie Xinlan, nodded with a smile and offered their congratulations.
Jiang Yu Feng frowned when she saw herself being singled out, but she couldn't find any fault with it.
Although she and Meng Li had confirmed their feelings and had some physical contact like kissing and hugging these past few days, they were not yet married.
And from Mu Rong Xian's side, it was perfectly fine for Xiao Yuer to call her Junior Sister.
Thus, she could only ask, "Where is my Second Senior Sister?"
Xiao Yuer replied, "She's inside trying on makeup with Su Ying and my Sister-in-law."
"Your Sister-in-law?" Meng Li caught the keyword and couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation of surprise, then asked, "You found Hua Wuchuan?"
Xiao Yuer nodded and explained, "Not long after you left, Uncle Yan was cured by Uncle Chang and Auntie Chang using the method of fighting poison with poison. After that, I took him to the Red Leaf Pavilion and successfully found out Lao Hua's whereabouts."
"After he left Yihua Palace, he wandered around and accidentally ended up at the Kunlun Tribe in the Western Regions, where he married Princess Taka there."
"I see," Meng Li said with a look of realization, though he secretly guessed it was likely the plot's self-correcting ability.
At this moment, Su Ying, Mu Rong Xian, and Princess Taka—who had an exotic appearance and attire—walked out of the village after being notified by E Tongtian.
"Little Junior Sister."
"Second Senior Sister."
"Yu Feng."
"Su Ying."
...
After a round of greetings and introductions, the women began chatting together.
Xiao Yuer and Meng Li exchanged a look and quietly excused themselves on the pretext of parking the carriage.
As soon as they left, Xiao Yuer couldn't help but ask, "Brother Meng, I'm very happy that you brought your whole family to attend the wedding for me and the Little Fairy. Although you don't say it, I can tell you consider me a friend. It's just that Su Ying is here; aren't you afraid of trouble by bringing all your Sisters-in-law at once?"
"I'm not afraid," Meng Li replied, then continued, "I've talked it over with Xinlan, Yu Yan, Xiao Xiao, and Yu Feng. They can accept Su Ying."
Xiao Yuer was stunned, then sharply caught the keyword and looked astonished. "Yu Feng?"
"Yeah," Meng Li confirmed.
Xiao Yuer: "..."
After a full few seconds of silence, he gave Meng Li a thumbs-up. "You're amazing! I, Xiao Yuer, admire you to no end!"
Meng Li smiled and changed the subject, "Did Hero Yan not go to Yihua Palace after he recovered?"
