It promises a unique and thrilling adventure. Determinedly, Ballon nodded and said, "I am a child of God and a follower of God. My faith in him is unwavering. It is my greatest honor to dedicate my life to the Sky God."
The Pope nodded and said, "Very well. As one of God’s most faithful followers, are you willing to be joined in matrimony with the young lady beside you, the Red Robe Priestess Xuan Yue, and spend your life respecting her, caring for her, and even sacrificing your life for her without any regrets?"
Ballon’s handsome face turned slightly red with excitement, his voice trembling slightly, "I am willing. I am willing to devote my entire life to look after her, and even sacrifice my life without any regrets. She will be the only love of my life."
After listening to Ballon’s words, the Pope felt somewhat reassured. He could see that Ballon’s words were spoken from the heart; he truly loved his granddaughter. He nodded at Ballon and smiled, "The Sky God will bless you." He turned his head towards his granddaughter. Xuan Yue looked especially beautiful today, her exquisite face hidden beneath a silk veil but unable to hide her exceptional beauty. The Pope could clearly sense the struggle within his granddaughter’s heart. He knew Xuan Yue’s heart still belonged to Ah Dai.
"Xuan Yue, as a red robe priestess of the Church, are you willing to dedicate your life to the holy cause?"
Xuan Yue trembled all over, roused from her inner sorrow. She looked at her grandfather with misty eyes, then gently nodded and said, "I am a child of God and one of His followers. My faith in Him is unwavering. It is my greatest honor to dedicate my life to the Sky God." Her voice staggered due to her emotional upheaval as she recited the words mandated by the church for its clergy during weddings.
The Pope frowned slightly and said, "Very well. As one of God’s most faithful followers, are you willing to join in matrimony with the young man beside you, Holy Judge Ballon, and spend your entire life respecting him, caring for him, and even sacrificing your own life without regret?" After asking this question, the Pope’s usually calm heart began to race. He was really afraid that his granddaughter would say the three words of refusal. That would be the greatest disgrace in the history of the Church. No one had ever backed out of a wedding ceremony officiated by the Pope.
Xi Wen and the others clenched their fists nervously. At this moment, they were all at a loss about how to deal with the situation in front of them. Ah Dai was not present, and the wedding ceremony was about to be completed. They were all anxiously waiting for Xuan Yue’s response. As long as Xuan Yue said those three words of refusal, for the sake of Ah Dai’s happiness, they would even turn against the Church to protect her.
Xuan Yue fell silent, experiencing a heartachingly sharp pain. Ah Dai did not show up. He did not come to stop her wedding. Everything was over. The last possibility between her and him was about to disappear. Xuan Yue looked at her anxious parents, then at the dissatisfied faces of Mr. and Mrs. Ballon. At this point, she understood that she could not refuse the wedding anymore. For the sake of the Church, she no longer had the right to refuse. Tears streamed down her face, staining her white wedding dress. After taking a deep breath, she murmured as if she was a convict about to be executed, "I am wil..."
"No — she does not." A shrill cry rang out, echoing far and wide. The overwhelming sound, as mighty as Mount Tai, descended from the sky. Everyone simultaneously looked up towards the sky. An eye-catching silver glow appeared in mid-air above the grand hall, rapidly descending and growing larger in everyone’s field of vision.
Upon hearing this voice, Xuan Yue trembled. She ripped the veil from her head and looked up, excitement and anxiety filling her eyes. This voice was too familiar to her. It was the voice she had longed to hear! Tears streamed down from her beautiful eyes as Xuan Yue whispered, "You came, you finally came."
Upon hearing the voice, Xi Wen, Larthas, and others rejoiced. Xi Wen signaled to the people of the Tian Gang Sword Sect behind him, indicating them to prepare for action. Prophet Pu Lin’s face showed an unfathomable smile, appearing completely unconcerned about the dramatic change that was about to occur.
Intervening in the wedding ceremony of a Red Robe Priestess was undoubtedly a great insult to the church. Chief Judge Xuan Yuan cried out in anger, and a golden light emanated from him, shooting up into the sky, speeding like a meteor towards the silver light.
The silver light was Ah Dai. He had only found out yesterday that Xuan Yue was going to marry Ballon today. After his moment of enlightenment, Ah Dai’s heart overflowed with love for Xuan Yue. To prevent this wedding, he had traveled tirelessly, pushing his speed to the limit. After flying madly for a day and a night, he finally arrived just as the ceremony was about to be completed, preventing the ceremony from being concluded. Using his exceptional vision, he clearly saw the tears in Xuan Yue’s eyes. Those glistening tears confirmed everything to him. For him, this was enough. Xuan Yue’s excited and anxious tears gave him endless energy.
