The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 936: Official

The people who looked toward the platform where the pressure of the heavens was focused saw that it had already collapsed. However, their attention was directed to the groom and the bride. They saw Sylphia hugging Aldrian tightly, while Aldrian held her just as close, a smile still visible on his face.

It was as if the terrifying pressure was something he could endure normally, without much effort.

Sylphia, who was hugging him, was clearly showing fear as she closed her eyes and clung to Aldrian tightly. Her body was trembling as she endured the pressure. The people knew that the pressure was truly heavy, because she was standing in the same spot as Aldrian.

What the others did not know was that Aldrian was using his domain to protect everyone on the continent from the pressure. Otherwise, they would have felt an even more overwhelming pressure.

However, he focused more on protecting Sylphia because she continued to cling to him.

He continued to smile even under the heavy pressure, because of the feeling of love he felt at that moment.

Even when the atmosphere suddenly turned terrifying and the pressure descended, the first thing she did was hug him. She was actually very afraid of the pressure and the terrifying atmosphere, but she forced herself to withstand it and kept hugging him while mumbling, "O heavens, please have mercy on him, please have mercy on him."

Even in this terrifying situation, the first thing she did was hug him and pray to the heavens to have mercy on him. She did not leave him. Instead, she implored the heavens for forgiveness on his behalf.

Then why did the heavens give such a reaction?

It was because the heavens were reacting to the oath he had declared. The content of his oath was truly heavy, one that would affect his next thousand reincarnations, if he were to reincarnate again.

In a normal situation, if someone dares to bring the heavens into their oath, the heavens will give a reaction, and that is not unusual. If the content of the oath is trivial, the reaction will not be clear enough for people to sense anything.

However, as the content becomes heavier, so does the heavens' reaction. For Aldrian, who brought not only the heavens but even the entire universe into his oath, and even dared to curse his own existence if he broke it, this was truly something no sane person would ever dare to do. The reaction from the heavens was, of course, great enough for the entire world to sense it.

Even a god would not carelessly make an oath like that, as it was far too risky.

Aldrian dared to do this because he believed in himself and in the connection he had shared with Sylphia all this time. He believed that he would never break his oath, and that the heavens would carry out what he had already commanded them to do.

Earlier, he had sent his intent toward the heavens, demanding that they give him the same treatment as other beings the moment he declared his oath. They had to place a curse upon his existence if he broke it, a truly heavy curse that would carry over to his next thousand lives, should he ever reincarnate.

The heavens, of course, refused his order at first, and for the first time, he could feel an intent of fear coming from them.

Yes, fear.

From the heavens.

The heavens felt fear because they were being forced to place a curse upon his existence, something they would never do. Aldrian understood this, which was why he became even more stern with the heavens. He issued his order as an absolute ruler, and in the end, the heavens were forced to obey.

They truly placed the "sleeping curse" upon his existence.

This curse would only "wake up" if he broke the oath, and at this moment, he was thankful to the heavens for obeying him.

Despite becoming the focus of the pressure from the heavens, he calmly received it and used his energy to lessen the pressure on himself, and especially on Sylphia. He kept hugging her while the pressure continued to press down on him for a few more seconds, until it finally slowly disappeared.

The dark clouds above the continent slowly dissipated, and the sky turned clear once again. The people looked up at the sky with fearful gazes. That was a truly terrifying experience for them, and it greatly disturbed the joyous atmosphere.

At the wedding venue, the guests talked among themselves about what had happened, their eyes repeatedly drawn to the destroyed platform. Royal Teacher Elthar had already taken his distance from the platform the moment he felt the pressure from the heavens. Sweat rolled down his forehead, as the sensation had been truly terrifying.

He saw Sylphia still hugging Aldrian, while Aldrian gently stroked her back to calm her down. Sylphia slowly relaxed and lifted her head to look at his face. Her tears continued to roll down, clearly showing how frightened she had been just moments ago.

She had thought that the heavens would do something to him after he declared such a bold oath, so she hugged him instinctively and asked the heavens to forgive him.

"I'm sorry if that terrified you," Aldrian said as he kissed her forehead.

Sylphia let him kiss her, then hugged him again. "I was truly afraid that something bad would happen to you. I thought the heavens might collapse or something…" she said with a trembling voice.

Aldrian felt guilty and gently stroked her back for a moment before looking toward the guests. He could see all of them staring at him with amazement.

He showed a smile. "My apologies to everyone for the terrifying experience just now. I only wanted to show my sincerity and seriousness with my oath, which naturally drew a reaction from the heavens."

"To make up for the unpleasant experience just now, when this should have been a joyous moment, allow me to present my music to all of you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the destroyed platform disappeared, and the soil beneath him and Sylphia rose up, forming a new platform with the same shape.

The guests then saw him take out a guqin from the storage ring he carried in his suit. Everyone suddenly became eager, as they would finally see Aldrian play the guqin directly.

Many had already heard his guqin performance before, but this was the first time they would witness him playing it in person, which made them quickly forget the terrifying experience from earlier.

Guests who had come from across the Ancient Blue Gate world also looked forward to his performance, as many of them had heard it in the past. As for those who had never heard it, they were filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Sylphia, now calm, released her hug and wiped her tears with Aldrian's help.

"This music is something that I prepared for you," he whispered to her, which made her flush and finally show a smile. She felt her heart fill with butterflies and love for him.

He then took his position to play the guqin, and Sylphia also sat beside him. The people had already prepared themselves to listen to the music, their attention fully focused on Aldrian.

A few seconds later, the first string was plucked, then the second. Finally, the sounds of the strings shaped a melody with a slow rhythm that could be heard across the continent. The music continued beautifully, and the people closed their eyes as they truly enjoyed it. Their senses were gradually swept away by the music.

Their minds were brought into the imagination of two figures who had fallen in love with each other. They faced many challenges that tested their love, and together, they endured all of those trials. They went through tragic events that could bring tears, as well as happy moments that made them smile.

The music carried them through the entire journey of the two figures, until they finally reached a happy ending. They were able to live happily ever after, something that everyone hoped for.

After the story ended, the music slowly came to a stop, pulling the people out of their reverie. Many let out sighs filled with admiration and looked at Aldrian with praise and amazement. Without realizing it, two hours had already passed.

Many even shed tears, touched by the imagery shaped by the music. They could feel the struggles of the two figures, and in that moment, they forgot about the pressure from the heavens, remembering only the beauty of the music.

Someone who could play music that easily swept any cultivator's feelings into the melody and bring the concept of the music into their imagination was someone truly great in both instrument mastery and the sound laws.

Aldrian was already powerful in terms of strength, and he was also a great alchemist and forge master. His artistic side was no less impressive, as he could play the guqin at a mastery level.

Was there anything he could not do at this point?

"I hope you like my presence and that it brought benefits to you," Aldrian said before storing the guqin and standing up. Sylphia followed him.

Clap, clap, clap!

Many people began clapping, praising his performance. The atmosphere turned joyous once again.

Aldrian smiled and looked at Sylphia beside him.

"Do you like it?" he whispered.

"I love it," she answered with a bright smile.

Aldrian then turned to look at Royal Teacher Elthar and nodded, signaling him to continue. The royal teacher understood the meaning and walked back to the platform.

Once he returned to the platform and stood in front of Aldrian and Sylphia, he cleared his throat.

"Well, that escalated quickly. Please, Your Majesty, if you wish to do something like that again, please tell us beforehand so we can prepare. But anyway, it truly shows how much the groom loves the bride," he said, which made some people chuckle.

"Now that the vows have been declared by the groom and the bride, Aldrian Aster as the groom and Sylphia Evergreen as the bride, they are officially husband and wife!"
