There are farrs, small business owners, artisans, as well as so Black Tortoise Practitioners from lesser-known families, traveling rchants, and even quite a few loose cultivators of various ages, both n and won.
They were engaged in lively discussions, occasionally glancing outside the gate tower, seemingly looking forward to sothing.
"I heard the groom is the Young Clan Leader of the Ping’an Wang Family? I wonder what he looks like and if he’s worthy of our Miss Ruolan."
"Brother, where did you get this outdated news? The groom has long been the Clan Leader of the Wang Family."
"Clan Leader? Then he must be quite old. Our Miss Ruolan, is she going to be a second wife?"
"How could it be remarriage!? Our Miss Ruolan is the legitimate eldest daughter of the distinguished Liua Family, her status is extrely noble. I heard the groom is only nineteen, right in the pri of his youth, and is just a year older than Miss Ruolan."
"In terms of age and status, it’s barely acceptable. But isn’t the Ping’an Wang Family just a small family in that remote corner south of the Anjiang River?"
"That’s right, Ping’an Town was developed just over a hundred years ago, and they say there are still fierce beasts that haven’t been completely eradicated within the jurisdiction."
"Oh~~ Does that an our Miss Ruolan will suffer if she marries into such a poor and wild place? Isn’t it dangerous where there are fierce beasts?"
In this world, many commoners are born and die in the sa place.
To have a chance to visit a Guardian City and gain so knowledge would already be considered quite successful in life.
Ping’an Town and Shanyin Town are separated by mountains and water, so ordinary people only hear bits of information through hearsay, without really being well-inford.
However, so traveling loose cultivators and rchants who road around the world started speaking up for Ping’an Town, saying, "Ping’an Town is developing quite rapidly under the Wang Family’s leadership. Although it’s currently not as good as Shanyin, it holds great potential for future developnt. As for the appearance of fierce beasts within its borders, it does happen occasionally, but since it’s close to the Outer Domain, it’s unavoidable."
"Clan Leader Wang Shouzhe is a remarkable young man and is highly regarded in Ping’an Town, worthy of your Miss Liua."
With the defense from the loose cultivators and rchants, so Shanyin townsfolk finally gained so impression of Ping’an Town and Wang Shouzhe.
However, many people still held prejudices.
"Occasional fierce beasts, still ans there are fierce beasts. Miss Ruolan marrying to such a wild place is too much hardship."
"Wang Shouzhe? Such a common na. I hope he is handso and brave, with at least seventy or eighty percent of Young Clan Leader Yuanhui’s qualities."
"How could he compare to Young Master Yuanhui? If the groom has even half of Young Master Yuanhui’s qualities, that would be good enough."
Various discussions continued without end.
Suddenly.
A few clever young lads rushed back from afar, faces flushed with excitent, shouting, "They’re here, they’re here, Ping’an Wang Family’s wedding procession is here, the groom is here."
In an instant.
Everyone fell silent, stretching their necks to peer outside the gate.
After a while, at the corner of the road, the wedding procession slowly appeared.
Leading the procession was a young man dressed in wedding attire, with a large red flower adorning his chest.
He wore a Zanying Purple Jade Crown on his head, a tight-fitting vermillion wedding robe embroidered with dragon patterns and thed with a phoenix motif, signifying a harmonious marriage and united efforts in building their family.
At his waist hung a Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Pouch, indicating the wealth of the groom’s family and the promise of a worry-free life for the bride, with the pouch ant to be handed over to the bride for future financial managent.
On his right side were a Jade Sword and a small, slender Purple Gold Bow, symbolizing the groom’s family’s strong martial power capable of protecting the wife and children.
He wore Cloud-Stepping Boots, signifying the groom’s aspirations to rise steadily and further develop the family.
These outfits carry significant aning in this world.
This is the standard attire for a family clan leader or a family heir groom. Direct veins or second legitimate sons are not allowed to wear such wedding clothes.
"Oh, the groom’s stature is dignified, and he is as handso as jade," praised a scholar, "He rides steadily, with poised deanor, excellent, excellent."
"The groom’s wedding robe, from a distance, seems to emit a faint red glow and golden light. Could it be... the legendary Golden Fire Dual Spirit Silk Robe?" exclaid a well-inford loose cultivator.
"Brother, what is a Golden Fire Dual Spirit Silk Robe? Isn’t it just a wedding robe? What’s special about it?"
"Ha, there are many types of Spiritual Silkworms, such as Ice Spirit Silkworms, Fire Spirit Silkworms, and Golden Spirit Silkworms, among others. However, any Spiritual Silkworm Silk Clothing is extrely expensive, and an ordinary noble young lady would treasure even a single Spiritual Silkworm Silk Handkerchief," explained the loose cultivator eloquently.
"For n’s wedding attire, the most suitable is a Dual Spirit Silk Robe primarily made from Fire Spirit Silkworm Silk, with Golden Spirit Silkworm Silk as a supplent. These two types of spirit silks have an inherent reddish or golden hue, making them the most prestigious for wedding robes."
"However, the wedding robe requires a lot of materials and intricate craftsmanship, making it even more expensive. I reckon that groom’s robe costs no less than two thousand Qian Gold!"
"Two thousand?"
Both commoners and loose cultivators were stunned.
That’s a sky-high price!
The key point is that a man’s wedding robe is worn only once in a lifeti... A single wear costing two thousand Qian Gold is exceedingly extravagant!
"In the Longzuo County Town, I’ve seen such wedding robes, used by a Celestial Human Family’s Young Clan Leader during their marriage," the loose cultivator boasted of his knowledge.
A groom who can afford such a wedding robe must not be from an ordinary family?
Almost everyone imdiately looked at the groom with newfound respect.
"Hey, hey, don’t just look at the wedding robe, take a look at the horse the groom is riding!" another well-inford loose cultivator shouted.
With his reminder.
Only then did everyone notice that the groom’s horse was no ordinary steed.
The horse had a single horn on its head, its whole body was fiery red, with cloud-like white hooves, strong and graceful, full of spirit.
Its steps were light, as if stepping on clouds and flying.
"This is... the legendary Ten Thousand Gold Spirit Beast Steed."
"Fire Stepping on White Clouds!"
Indeed it is.
A thousand-gold robe, a ten-thousand-gold horse, the groom cos to marry the noble lady!
