Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Originally, the matter of Xuanxuan's marriage had nothing to do with the academy, because neither Xuanxuan nor Shuhui had any direct connection with the academy. However, Xuanxuan's cousin Hao Ling Jiuyao was a disciple of the academy, and Hao Lingyi, who he raised since childhood, also enrolled in the academy. Therefore, he personally wrote the invitation and sent it to Hao Lingyi, and at the same time begged Hao Ling Jiuyao to help deliver the invitation to Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying.

Hao Ling Jiu Yao refused at the beginning and said bluntly: "The two masters don't like to care about outside things. Brother Xuan, you don't have any direct connection with the academy. If it were Yushan, there would be a chance that he would send a gift, but the two masters would not care about these things."

Xuanxuan held a grudge against the academy in his heart, but he smiled politely: "No matter what decision the two deans make, I have no opinion on it. Besides, it's just an invitation. If the two deans are willing to give me some face, that would be great."

Having said that, Hao Ling Jiu Yao was still unwilling to do this, but she had to remind Di Xuan out of consideration for her feelings: "Either you send your trusted confidant to personally deliver this invitation to the academy, or just don't send it, this is in accordance with etiquette."

Xuanxuan stopped smiling and pretended to be hurt. "Xiaoyao, do you think that brother is a person who will do anything to achieve his goal?"

Hao Ling Jiuyao sighed, isn’t it?

But she didn't want to break up with Xuan directly, so she could only force a smile and said, "Brother is indeed not the same person in my heart as he was when I left Chaoyang Peak, but he is not that person anymore. It's just that you seem too anxious to invite the two deans to the wedding."

Hao Ling Jiuyao just felt very tired, as if her good days were gone forever since she recognized Di Xuan. This made her think more. Now she just wanted Di Xuan's wedding to start and end soon so that she could return to the academy and continue her life.

So Hao Ling Jiuyao restrained her smile and said to Di Xuan in a serious tone: "Brother Di Xuan, we have all grown up. We are no longer as carefree as we were when we were little, or we are no longer helpless in the face of many things. Even though you and I have a deep relationship, as I have found my future path and you have found a wife to accompany you for the rest of your life, it is time for us to think more about ourselves."

What she said about thinking more about herself, Hao Ling Jiuyao almost said directly that she and Xuan Xuan were strangers.

After hearing this, Xuan also hated Hao Ling Jiu Yao, but he couldn't turn against Hao Ling Jiu Yao at this time, so he still pretended to be distraught and said with a forced smile: "Xiao Yao, you misunderstood. Even if my brother gets married and has children, you are still my sister. We once agreed to accompany each other, and I will never forget this!"

Hao Ling Jiuyao had nothing to say, but Xuan was tactful and quickly ended the meeting. He left first, using the excuse that he had other things to do at his wedding.

In the end, Xuan sent Lao Sang to personally deliver the invitation to Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying. Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying did not want to attend Xuan's wedding, but since he had sent his confidant to invite them, they had to send a gift even if they did not go. However, Jiang Xinxin was reluctant to give anything expensive, so she snatched two fish red coins from Xiangliu, carved them into the shape of a pair of carps and gave it away.

Strictly speaking, fish red is considered rare in the wilderness, but this thing can only be used as a decoration most of the time. Apart from its beautiful color and rarity, it has almost no other advantages.

Everyone in the wilderness knew that the two presidents of the academy were wealthy and generous, so when Xuan saw this pair of lifelike carps, he felt extremely humiliated and even wanted to destroy them. However, he could not be the first to turn against the academy, so he could only order Lao Sang to hide the things and not take them out again.

Old Sang naturally considered Xuanxuan wholeheartedly, but he always felt that the things that the dean of the academy took out must be extraordinary, so before hiding the pair of carp, he made an excuse to go to Hao Ling Jiuyao and asked Hao Ling Jiuyao to help see if the pair of carp might be hiding something that no one knew.

When Hao Ling Jiuyao heard that this thing was given by Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying, she immediately took it and looked at it carefully. If they were not his close disciples, she would have guessed at the first moment that Xuan must not have looked at the pair of carp carefully.

After a while, Hao Ling Jiuyao sighed and said to Lao Sang, "This pair of carp is not only beautiful in style, but also has a texture that is completely different from the unprocessed fish dan red. It's all because the dean added a formation on it. I have a rough understanding of formations, and I can only barely see that there is a protective formation that can resist three fatal injuries. In addition, this fish dan red itself is infused with a lot of spiritual power, and in an emergency, it can also absorb the spiritual power to replenish its own cultivation. It is not a decoration that can be thrown aside casually!"

Old Sang looked at Hao Ling Jiu Yao the same way he looked at Xi Xuan, so he didn't try to cover up for Xi Xuan in front of Hao Ling Jiu Yao. He smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness has been so busy with the wedding recently that he hasn't seen it himself. He's not interested in the shape of the carp, so let me keep it for myself."

Hao Ling Jiu Yao also had some feelings for Lao Sang, so she suggested, "Then Lao Sang, you should carry this thing with you. Anyway, you are always with Brother Xuan, so if you carry it, it will be considered that Brother Xuan is carrying it."

Old Sang thought that this suggestion would work, so he carefully put the pair of three-inch carp in front of his chest, solemnly said goodbye to Hao Ling Jiuyao, and returned to Xuan.

Although in order to avoid trouble for himself, Dixuan did not release any news to the public when he asked Lao Sang to deliver the invitation to the academy, Lao Sang's whereabouts were not easy to hide. Soon, the people of the Fifth and Seventh Kings knew that Dixuan had actually sent an invitation to the academy. Then, judging from Dixuan's performance, the academy did not agree to attend the wedding, so they simply helped Dixuan to spread the news.

Xuan had originally felt that the academy had neglected him and was extremely jealous. Now that he saw that the Fifth and Seventh Princes were using this incident to undermine his prestige, one can imagine how angry he was.

Seeing that Xuan had smashed everything in the room, Old Sang dared to go in and talk to Xuan: "Your Highness, in fact, the two carps sent by the two students of the academy are not some dispensable decorations, they are three lives!"

When Xuanxuan saw Lao Sang coming in, he had already reflexively suppressed his anger. When Lao Sang suddenly said that the two deans had saved his life three times, he immediately became interested. "You went to find Xiaoyao and showed her the twin carps? What did she say?"

Old Sang took out the two carps from his chest and handed them to Xuan respectfully, saying, "Your Highness said that although these two carps are made of red fish, they also have a formation that can resist three fatal attacks. They are also full of spiritual power and can provide timely replenishment when the spiritual power is exhausted. In total, the two deans have given you three lives!"

Lao Sang's statement was very crude and a little exaggerated, but in fact it was enough to make Xuan fall in love with the two carps that he had looked down upon and even hated at the beginning.

In this case, Xuan was no longer in a hurry to refute anything on his own behalf. He just quietly waited for the Fifth King and the Seventh King to make the matter as big as possible, preferably to embarrass them in public.

However, not all the people around the Fifth and Seventh Princes were smart. Seeing that Xuan was still preparing for the wedding without any hurry, they naturally became alert. The Fifth and Seventh Princes, who were ready to take action, temporarily stopped their thoughts and found out that although the academy had no plan to attend the wedding, it gave a gift on the spot.

Seeing that Xuan did not express any dissatisfaction, it showed that he was at least satisfied with the gift, so the plan was shelved. Although Xuan felt that he had lost an opportunity to embarrass the Fifth and Seventh Kings and damage their prestige, he was still prepared to take out the two carp at the wedding to make himself look impressive, so that he could still slap them in the face.
