Chapter 1099: Chapter 1099: My Solitary Love Dream (Part 1)

She wore a red dress, standing out conspicuously in the dense crowd.

Xiaoqi couldn’t help but mutter to herself, wishing she had changed into some other clothes before coming.

She followed behind Su Xingqiao, keeping her head down. Luckily, her petite frame kept her concealed, making her hard to spot in the throng unless someone made a diligent effort to do so.

She followed the crowd until they arrived at a gigantic plaza. It’s described as gigantic because it’s truly enormous, much larger than the area of her estate, easily capable of accommodating twenty to thirty thousand people. The plaza featured a high platform constructed entirely of white jade. Even Xiaoqi, raised amidst various treasures, couldn’t help but admire the extravagance, thinking how wealthy they must be!

Such fine jade being used to pave the ground—looks like Ningxi Island doesn’t lack for wealth.

Because the white jade floor was so striking, the red carpet atop it stood out even more, along with the fluttering red silk ribbons in the plaza and the pink and red petals raining down from the sky, everything was as beautiful as a dream.

However... it all looked somewhat like a wedding hall!

Indeed... When the aristocratic families in the Futu Realm marry, they invite all the esteemed elders from both sides, holding the wedding at the central square, with the townsfolk watching around.

Her aunt married into Shuiqi Island ten years ago, and although she was young then, her photographic memory meant she would never forget the wedding scene.

The wedding took place on Phoenix Island, adorned in a sea of red bridal curtains... right!

Xiaoqi’s eyes widened as she realized why this plaza seemed so familiar. If it weren’t for her aunt’s wedding, she might have forgotten that this was Yulan Square of their Phoenix Island!

She hastily looked around despite the distance and the obstructing crowd. Her excellent sight allowed her to clearly see the white magnolia trees planted around the plaza.

This is... so is this... the scene of Auntie’s wedding with Shui Jingmo back then?

Why... why does such a scene appear here?

She couldn’t possibly be dreaming, nor could she have entered an illusion realm. With her Phoenix Soul awakened, she was no longer affected by arrays or any concoction below her capabilities, so she was certain she wasn’t dreaming.

If it’s not a dream, then who would create such a Void Array to specifically recreate Auntie’s wedding with Shui Jingmo from ten years ago?

As Xiaoqi puzzled over this, she suddenly saw a person walking out onto the high platform of the plaza. His figure swayed with grace, every smile enchanting, a wide-sleeved red robe draped to the white jade floor. His long legs peeked out, bare, with a golden bell anklet on his left ankle that jingled melodiously as he moved.

Yet, the cascade of silver hair scattered on the red robe added a touch of desolation.

Xiaoqi finally saw his face clearly, and gradually, she remembered who he was.

Yes, she had seen him before. When her aunt was about to be married, Shui Jingmo came to propose and stayed on Phoenix Island. One night, she inadvertently saw him; he wore a red outfit just like this, breathtakingly beautiful.
