Chapter 258: Wedding
[For those confused as to what is going on here. Ah Chun and Full Dive are part of a multiverse along with Phantasia: The Princess Knight. So some chapters may contain parts of the other novels until the novels finally combined into one.]
Ah Chun looked at everyone with a smile as bright as the sun. As time passed, the auspicious time had come. A knock came announcing the arrival of Ning Shen. Ah Chun's cheeks blushed as she got up. Her flowing red dress swayed and rippled as she moved. It looked as if she was floating as walked. Ah Chun exited the immortal cave to find Ning Shen standing there in red robes. He stretched out his hand and she placed her hand within his. Beside Ning Shen was a decorated sedan decorated in red silk, golden trim, and black jade.
Ning Shen helped Ah Chun on to the sedan before the wedding procession made its way down the mountain. Ah Chun sat in the sedan with her face covered by a veil. Her phoenix eyes smiling brightly. Although she and Ning Shen have already combined into one, she was still starting to get nervous. Which was normal for any girl getting married.
The sedan made its way to the foot of the mountain before crossing over to the next mountain over where the wedding was to be held. The trip was slow and bells and drums sounded as the procession made its way up the other mountain. When it finally arrived at the peak of the mountain a grand display was seen. Shimmering gold steps lead up into the sky where a small platform was located. One hundred steps in total. This was to signify their everlasting love and reliance on each other. Each step they took hand in hand would make the bond between the two grow stronger.
Ning Shen helped Ah Chun out of the sedan and led her to the first steps. He leaned over and whispered: "Careful."
Ah Chun nodded her head giving a hushed hum before interlocking her fingers with Ning Shen's. They then both took the first step onto the staircase made of spiritual qi. Everyone else was standing in the sky looking down at the couple as they took their time step by step.

Misaki stayed back with Qian Yan as she watched the Wedding Sedan head down the mountain. "She makes a beautiful bride."
"She does." Qian Yan looked on as she bit her lip, her eyes showing a bit of longing.
"Yan'er, you will be getting married soon. I know this world lets others get married at your age but where I come from being married should wait until you are eighteen. Only then can we properly consummate our marriage." Misaki said leaning over and gently kissing Qian Yan's lips. This small action made her smile finally.
Misaki grabbed Qian Yan's hand and flew up into the sky and looked down at the couple making their way up the long staircase until they finally reached the top platform.

Ah Chun and Ning Shen stood on the top platform looking at Bao Chen who was overseeing the wedding. "Please bow to the heavens and earth."
Ah Chun and Ning Shen kowtowed three times before standing back up. "Please bow to your mother and siblings." Bao Chen had to change this part up a bit since Ning Shen did not have any parents present and Ah Chun did not have a father. The two once again kowtowed. "Please bow to each other."
After standing up once again Ning Shen held Ah Chun's hand and smiled warmly at her. "In both my lifetimes and all the years I have been alive. The only girl I have ever set my eyes on was you. You have been the girl I have loved for so long, living through life and death situations, and even after death, I was able to meet you again. Chun'er, your are my world, my universe, and my heaven. My love for you has not died in over ten thousand years and will never die even if it is millions more. My only wish is to stay by your side. I know you will be heading out to a place far beyond my reach at some point. But even then… Even if I am still weak… I wish to be by your side experiencing all the things you have had to deal with. My love for you will never change and will never wilt. It will continue to bloom like an everlasting flower. On this day I swear to the heavens that I will never leave your side and will love you in this life and all lives thereafter. Chun'er, I love you."
Ah Chun's eyes welled up with tears. This man really has been with her since her first life. She gripped his hands and smiled brightly. "Shen'er… My love for you has never once wavered. Before I regained my memories my love was due to the samsara I went through. But once I regained my memories and realized that you and Zi Fen were one and the same, my love blossomed even more. My wish was to have the body I was stuck in to grow older so that we could finally get married. But even then, even though I was still stuck in a small body you stayed by my side. Not caring for what I looked like. You still showered me with your love and care as you always have done before. I had already decided long ago, that if you can not follow me, then I would rather stay here and not become what those above expect me to become. If there is no Shen'er at my side there is no need for me to become some Origin or whatever it is that those higher up expect me to be. Where you are, I am, there is nothing that will make me change my mind on this. As much as you love me I will always love you more."
Ah Chun ripped off her red veil and wrapped her arms around Ning Shen's neck and pushed her lips against his. This gained cheers from everyone. Bao Chen smiled as he said: "You are now husband and wife."contemporary romance
