All the heavens began with Huo Yi

Chapter 104 Lady Wushan Descends to the Mortal World

Instead of immediately asking Su'er if she liked her third daughter, Zi Zhu'er first asked Su'er to evaluate her own daughter.

Having been through similar experiences, she didn't want to play matchmaker, as it would only cause Su'er suffering and make her daughter resent her.

"This... Madam has six daughters, isn't that right?"

After Suer finished asking the question, Zi Zhu'er nodded.

Seeing this, Su'er continued, "I have never met the eldest daughter of the madam, so I will not comment on her. Second daughter..."

As Suer spoke, her second sister also turned her gaze toward her.

"Second Madam is decisive and efficient. She manages the business and food and drink of the entire mansion. She is a heroine among women. Most men may not be able to do what she does."

After Su Er finished speaking, the second sister's face lit up with joy. Who doesn't like to hear nice things? There's a reason why treacherous officials have always been favored by emperors.

"Young Master Su, you flatter me. I was merely doing my duty." The second sister raised her cup to Su Er from a distance and drank the contents in one gulp.

Su Er raised his cup to his second sister with a smile, downed the sweet wine in one gulp, and continued, "Third Sister is beautiful and intelligent. When I talk to her, we can discuss the past and present. She is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She is elegant, gentle, and generous."

Although Fourth Sister is a beautiful young woman, she is no less handsome than a hero. She is straightforward and outspoken. I recently spoke with Fourth Sister and found that she has very strong opinions and cannot stand injustice.

Fifth Sister was clever and mischievous, innocent and childlike; though she looked young, she possessed a stunning beauty.

After hearing Su'er's words, Zi Zhu'er smiled. She was much happier praising her daughter than praising herself.

"I didn't expect Young Master Su to speak so highly of my daughters. Hehe, does Young Master Su have any in mind?"

All the daughters in my household, except for my youngest, are of marriageable age. If you, young master, have any that you fancy, please speak to me about it.”

"This...isn't the time too short? Let me have some time to think about it."

Suer politely declined Zi Zhu'er's blind date invitation, after all, he was going to make a big scene at her flower banquet in a couple of days.

Zi Zhu'er was not angry when she heard this, and still had a smiling look on her face: "It's alright. I don't necessarily want you to marry my daughter. If you take a liking to her, it will be my daughter's good fortune. Even if you don't, you will still be a distinguished guest of my Spider Cave."

…………

Another day later

It was around midnight that day.

All the Zhu sisters came to the gate of the courtyard to greet the guests.

As the sound of gongs and drums drifted from afar, two black-haired pigs carried a large box slowly toward the Zhu family compound.

Following the two black-haired pigs was a large sedan chair with a purple roof carved with dragons and phoenixes. Eight tall, sallow-faced men carried the sedan chair in front and behind, while a fat black pig demon accompanied it like a eunuch.

The two black-haired boar spirits carrying the large box entered the gate of the Zhu family compound, grunted and snorted as they accepted the tea offered by the little insect demon, quietly waiting for their master to arrive.

The large purple sedan chair came to a steady stop at the gate, and the eldest and second eldest sisters immediately smiled and went to greet the distinguished guests from Wushan.

When the sedan chair curtain was lifted, a plump woman with her hair in a bun was revealed.

The woman was dressed in a pale yellow robe embroidered with cranes and koi, with a trailing pink gauze skirt, and a soft green gauze shawl draped over her arm.

A pair of gold leaves adorned her hair, with veins delicately dotted in enamel blue. The openwork areas were inlaid with numerous green gemstones, and the two gold leaves were twisted together to serve as a headband on her forehead.

Several hairpins, shaped like birds, animals, and flowers, were sparkling and shimmering. They were mixed with hairpins and ornaments and worn in the hair. Each hairpin was made of precious stones such as gold, silver, jade, and agate.

Two phoenix hairpins are inserted on either side, and four gold flower magnolia and red coral hairpins are placed beside the phoenix hairpins, like stars holding up the moon.

Three ornate ornaments adorn the headband, pearl earrings dangle from the earlobes, and a pale yellow peony is tucked diagonally into the updo.

Her eyes were truly like spring water, clear and bright; her delicate and beautiful face was more beautiful than flowers; her fingers were like slender scallions, and her lips were like cinnabar; every frown and smile was captivating.

"Good aunt, it's been so long since we last met. Your arrival today truly brings honor to our humble abode." The second sister was the first to greet her, and the eldest sister also smiled and bowed to the woman in palace attire, offering some auspicious words.

"Eldest Miss and Second Miss, it has indeed been a long time since we last met. Why hasn't my old sister come to see me?" The Fairy of Wushan smiled and shook hands with her two elder sisters, chatting warmly with them.

“My mother is waiting for you at Ruoxian Nunnery, Aunt. She has been waiting for you ever since she received the letter.”

The mother originally wanted to come up and greet them in person, but her makeup was always flawed, and she had to change her clothes again and again.

After all, Auntie's charm remains undiminished, and Mother, as Auntie's sister, should certainly address her appropriately. As the second sister spoke, she pulled the Fairy of Wushan towards the mansion.

“Why bother? I called her back to heaven last time, but she wouldn’t listen. Life on earth is so hard for my dear sister. Let the eldest sister take me to find your mother. My senior brother will be here soon.” The Wushan Fairy said, pulling her eldest sister along, and told her to go to Ruoxian Nunnery with her first.

Before the Fairy of Wushan could finish speaking, a deep voice rang out: "Junior Sister, are you unwilling to wait for me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall man wearing a yellow Taoist robe, with a face as white as a melon and eyes like stars, landed in the courtyard.

No sooner had he arrived than the Poison King leaped down from the clouds above.

"Senior brother, what are you saying? You are so busy with your affairs, I thought you were late. Instead of waiting for you, I'd rather go and keep my dear sister company. It's been a long time since I've seen her." Although the Wushan Fairy was outwardly enthusiastic, her smile towards the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was ultimately a forced one.

"Hehe, Junior Sister, what are you saying? Even if I'm busy, I'll arrive early for Junior Sister Zi's flower banquet." The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord stroked his beard and said, "Junior Sister, why don't you come in with me first? Let these five girls entertain the younger ones themselves."

“Senior brother is right.” The female immortal of Wushan nodded, then pointed to the two black-skinned boar demons and said, “You two carry the gifts and come inside with me.”

The path inside the Spider Cave was winding and twisting. As soon as the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord had a thought, he blurted out, "Junior Sister, do you know that Maitreya, the Lord of Little Western Paradise, has returned to Little Western Paradise?"

"What is it, Senior Brother?" the Wushan Fairy said coldly.

"I reckon that the day the assassin killed Huang Mei, I think..."

"Shut up! I'm here today to congratulate my sister. Don't say such things to me." The Fairy of Wushan frowned. This eye-roll was really ill-timed. Why bring up that monkey on such a joyous day?

Besides, she had no grudge against that monkey. Why didn't she think about this when she stole his innate talent?

Now that the weapon is on Zi Zhu'er again, the first to suffer when Grandma's monkey arrives will definitely be their own business.

That's why she's always disliked the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, unperturbed by the interruption, simply moved closer to the Wushan Fairy and whispered, "Listen to me, Junior Sister, I've heard that pig is also here. If we use some tricks to capture that pig, and then lure that monkey away, wouldn't our Yaochi be able to hold four talented individuals?"
