Chapter 210: A Captivating Beauty
A while later…
“This is… incredible!”
Lin Tianlu looked down at the crimson robe he was wearing, his face filled with astonishment.
In just a few minutes, he had watched as the Fifth Elder effortlessly wove and sewed the wedding robe. It fit perfectly, the fabric smooth and cool against his skin, like flowing jade.
The robe was embroidered with a coiling dragon, its scales shimmering, intricate patterns adorning the sleeves and collar, trimmed with gold, against a black background, a perfect blend of luxury and understated elegance.
And most importantly…
He could sense a flow of Yin energy and a warm current of spiritual energy within the fabric, enveloping him like a protective shield. This was no ordinary garment. Its material was incredibly durable, probably resistant even to swords and blades.
“This weaving technique is truly remarkable.”
Lin Tianlu couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
Even master craftsmen would be in awe of such skill.
“Master Lin, the Azure Fox’s robe is ready. You can come out now.”
“I’ll be right there.”
He quickly gathered his discarded clothes and walked out of the flower bed.
But as he returned to the courtyard, he stopped abruptly, his eyes wide with surprise.
“…”
Yun Yue turned to face him, her hair flowing like a starry river, her exquisite wedding robe like a blooming flower, the delicate fabric swirling around her.
Her beauty was breathtaking, ethereal and captivating, her every movement graceful and alluring, despite the robe concealing her body. Under the moonlight, she looked like a celestial maiden, and even Lin Tianlu was mesmerized.
Sensing his gaze, Yun Yue bit her lip, her heart fluttering, a blush creeping onto her cheeks, her fluffy tails swaying nervously.
“It seems you’re satisfied with the wedding robe, Master Lin.”
The Fifth Elder’s soft chuckle broke the silence.
Lin Tianlu quickly averted his gaze and bowed respectfully. “Thank you for this gift, Fifth Elder. It’s truly exquisite and valuable!”
Yun Yue also curtsied, her head bowed in gratitude.
“As long as you like it.”
The Fifth Elder waved her hand, and two more wedding robes, similar in style, appeared, which she offered to them with a smile. “I made two extra sets, adjusting the sizes slightly. Perhaps you’ll find a use for them in the future.”
Lin Tianlu’s lips twitched.
These extra robes…
“Fifth Elder, I’ll keep these.”
Yun Yue took the robes, her smile calm and gentle, her earlier shyness gone. “It wouldn’t be appropriate for Tianlu to carry women’s clothing. I’ll give them to the other girls when the time comes.”
“You’re truly fortunate to have the Azure Fox by your side, Master Lin.”
“You flatter me.”
Yun Yue smiled softly.
She glanced at Lin Tianlu, now dressed in his wedding robe, his posture straight and tall, and couldn’t help but sigh in admiration. “Master, you look so… handsome.”
“Indeed,” the Fifth Elder agreed with a smile. “Master Lin’s features are truly striking. And his physique is well-proportioned, deceptively slender yet strong and sturdy. He’s a handsome man, and in this robe, he’s truly captivating, enough to make any woman’s heart flutter.”
Lin Tianlu’s expression turned slightly awkward.
“When did I become so attractive?”
“You’re a man, Master Lin. You see your own face every day, so you wouldn’t notice.” The Fifth Elder chuckled and gently touched the corner of his eye. “That beauty mark is a perfect accent, enhancing your charm.
Any woman who meets you, even a brief glance, would be captivated. And with your gentle nature and eloquent words…”
Yun Yue nodded in agreement.
Lin Tianlu: “…”
Was he really that handsome?
He had never thought about it before.
He touched his face, his expression strange.
And the effect of his appearance… it sounded a bit unsettling.
Like a walking aphrodisiac.
“Of course, you’re not exactly a peerless beauty, Master Lin, not someone who can bewitch women with a single glance. But your aura is truly…”
The Fifth Elder paused, searching for the right words. “…Intriguing.”
It was difficult to describe, but his presence evoked a sense of warmth and familiarity.
He wasn’t someone you would fall in love with at first sight, but you would never dislike him.
And the more you interacted with him, the more his charm would grow, like a blooming flower, leaving a lasting impression.
Yun Yue nodded emphatically.
“Ahem… Elder, you’re making me blush.” Lin Tianlu chuckled awkwardly and bowed slightly.
“Your humility is admirable, Master Lin.”
The Fifth Elder chuckled softly, then took out a brocade box from her sleeve and placed it in Yun Yue’s hand. “Here are some matching hairpins and jewelry, as a wedding gift. Please accept them.”
“Thank you for your generosity, Elder.”
“Now that the wedding robes are ready, why don’t you two stay the night? I can prepare a comfortable room for you, with a romantic ambiance.”
Lin Tianlu and Yun Yue exchanged glances, their expressions awkward, and they quickly declined. “There’s no need, Fifth Elder. We’ll return to Martial Aunt’s private chamber. We wouldn’t want to impose. And it wouldn’t be appropriate to be seen with other female disciples.”
“Oh~”
The Fifth Elder’s eyes twinkled mischievously as she looked back and forth between them. “Since you’re both dressed in your wedding robes, why not… consummate your marriage?”
Lin Tianlu’s lips twitched, and he bowed awkwardly. “Thank you for your kindness, Fifth Elder. But it’s getting late. Yun Yue and I should return now. We’ll visit you again tomorrow.”
He took Yun Yue’s hand and they quickly left.
The Fifth Elder didn’t try to stop them, her smile playful as she watched them go.
“…”
As silence returned to the courtyard, she let out a long sigh, as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders.
“The Lunar Valley… is truly changing because of this man…”
