Preparations were not something Hu Lana and Xie Xan worried about. Although not too arrogant, their standing was day and night apart compared to the time when they had just entered the Spirit Hall. Hailed as geniuses and being part of Bibi Dong's faction, one of the most, if not the most, favorable candidates for the chair of Supreme Pontiff, the duo had considerable pull within the Spirit Hall and more so within the Giant's Fortress.
The two rejected Ah Yin's idea of a 'nature' wedding.
"It's so stupid. Why would I want to marry someone barefoot to enjoy the sensation of fresh grass when I will be enjoying something else more than that?"— Her coy tone left nothing to refute. In fact, Hu Lana had made everyone back off from the preparations with a sweet but irrefutable tone of a bride who wanted her dream wedding... with her 'normal' friends.
"Given that you no longer have a family?" Ja Sun inquired, that poorly constructed joke being his cue to leave. Others except for Ah Yin and Yuehua followed soon after. Although Hu Lana held the final decision, the input from the two bluenettes proved valuable and as it turns out, aside from being a natural healer given the sheer vitality and life force hidden in her, Ah Yin could also be used as a natural decorator.
But most of the preparations were used for the banquet after the marriage. Sure, the marriage only included close... associates, but the couple wanted to end their long-lost bachelor life with a bang.
Truly, Xie Xan had no shame saying this while rocking Xie Yue in his embrace to sleep.

Unlike any other fortress, the Giant's Fortress was built to honor its name so instead of wide and stocky, the perimeter of the fortress was towering with numerous spirit masters standing as a guard. The base was set wide and the construction was solid, too, but overall, aside from the four major entrances that also worked as the major residence for the members patrolling as well as manning other fronts of the management of the location.
Controlling a piece of land, as historically important as Giant's Forest, is not a simple task and in the beginning years, surely, the group would have to invest more than they can gain but the more Bibi Dong stayed here, the more she felt it worthwhile.
Having one's own base was a little intoxicating and she wasn't the only one who felt that. Directly beneath Bibi Dong in this sense of luxury was none other than Liu Erlong. Dragons are always said to be lazy and lustful so it was heartwarming to see Liu Erlong keep up half of the myth under the comfort of a luxurious lifestyle she had been dreaming and striving for a long time.
Roles in the wedding, Ja Sun realized, weren't as restrictive or widespread. The Douluo continent had many customs. Each major clan had its own traditions and that extended to weddings, too. Being from a northern village, Hu Lana and Xie Xan wished to have a wedding befitting their heritage, too.
With the wedding set to evening, the couple separated with their son now finding his way to the unlikeliest team member.
"I think they were trying to punish me by cleaning your diapers but I'm perfectly fine making you stay in your filth," Ja Sun idly lay in his room. He was understandably not allowed to interfere with the process of the wedding and was cordially invited to rest in his room. Hu Lana was at her peak form of passive-aggressiveness so Ja Sun didn't bother pushing her buttons. His room was furnished well with a considerate station of snacks already present even if Ja Sun kept prime ribs and wings in his storage ring.
On the head of the bed sat Xie Yue as he looked at the only individual in front of him. It was either the couple being worthless as parents or the existence of spirit energy making the infants act differently than the ones in his real world because Xie Yue did not scream bloody mary the moment he lost sight of his parents.
The boy barely registered Ja Sun's derisive words as she began patting the mattress with a soft 'oomph' noise escaping his lips.
"Did you know that they call me the Ultimate Grandson? If your grandmothers were still alive, they would have been all over me," Ja Sun stretched his legs, resting them on the bed while sitting on the chair.
"Kkhkhkhhk," Xie Yue began bobbing his body, uttering strange noise as spit collected in the corner of his lips.
"Yeah, it's a pity they died too early." Ja Sun hummed in response.
*Prrrrttt*
Ja Sun's expression froze as the noise this time escaped from the southern end of the boy and...
'That was a wet one, right?... Damn it, the smell!'
Ja Sun's expression instantly turned ugly as he faced his worst nemesis.
Responsibility.

"Aww, Yue'er, did Uncle Asshole take good care of you? Oh, who got his diaper cleaned up? Yes, you did!" Liu Erlong smiled such a pleasant smile that her dangerous canines were laid bare but the moment Xie Yue entered Erlong's embrace, the boy began to giggle uncontrollably. Hearing her, Ja Sun's already cold expression turned icier.
"Just take him," Ja Sun hissed before handing Erlong a sealed package with a sigh of relief, "And... I thought of making up to you for stealing your kill back then. Here, let's bury the hatchet."
This package was originally meant for the happy couple but seeing Erlong volunteering to insult him, Ja Sun changed his mind and adapted expertly.
"You... mean it?" Erlong hesitated. This was never the part of the script. But she still reached out to take the package as Ja Sun stepped forward and held Erlong's shoulder, making her flinch as he continued, "Don't wait up on the gift... it's something Xie Yue likes a lot, too. Alright? I'm going to meet up with Yin and Dong but do tell me if you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed planning this gift."
Erlong was left silent once Ja Sun left and her expression was getting harder to control. A brilliant smile touched her lips and she glanced at Xie Yue, "Looks like he still has some sense, huh. Come on, let's get you to Yuehua to get ready and then bring you to your mom." She skipped back to her room and found Yuehua combing her hair in front of the mirror.
"I will get to him in a minute," Yuehua smiled while looking at the giddy Erlong from the mirror, "And you seem too happy to be reluctant to meet Brother Ka-ul."
"Wait," Erlong hurriedly waved off Yuehua's comments and took out the package after setting Xie Yue on the bed. Her hands moved quickly but the moment she opened the package, the heaviest of smell hit her like slap so bitchy which only seemed to have an extra effort once she saw the full diapers packed together.
Keeping her caution whenever it came to Ja Sun for more than one reason, Yuehua covered her nose and hurriedly cautioned Erlong, "Don't let your bloodlust escape."
The bluenette had also prepared her domain when Liu Erlong suddenly chuckled while setting the diapers on fire, making the room itself a hazard.
"Man, I should have seen this coming..." She shook her head with a grin, adding, "I missed him messing with me."
Yuehua, meanwhile spread her domain to suppress the scent and gazed at Erlong oddly.
On the other hand, feeling incomparably pleased, Ja Sun moved towards the room shared by Ah Yin and Bibi Dong as they planned to help each other get ready, a rare sight to Ja Sun's sore ones as he was denied the entry by Bibi Dong.
Standing in front of the door, Ja Sun confirmed the time. He was ten minutes late. This should be enough time for the duo to complete their preparations should they be running late and if not, this much time isn't that annoying either so he should be safe. He then looked over his attire.
Hu Lana and Xie Xan had given a specific form of attire so, at the moment, Ja Sun found himself wearing a silver fur-ended coat with the fur ending in an emerald gradient towards the tips. It was simply made in aesthetics of his spirit transformation and worked well with the conspicuous green vertical eye tattoo on his forehead and the pigmentation of his irises.
'Man... my fur really is premium.' Ja Sun thought as the one he wore didn't even come close in comparison but this was one thing Ja Sun didn't wish to find his narcissistic comfort in. Clearing his thoughts, he almost pushed open the door before realizing a more polite manner of getting the thing done.
*Knock* *Knock*
He waited after knocking on the door. It took a few seconds for the door to open but it was worth the wait.
"You're late," Bibi Dong smiled as she opened the door. Unlike Ja Sun who wore a trenchcoat over his clothes ended with fur, Bibi Dong had an entire robe on her. It wasn't lined with fur. Instead, the white robe had the embroidery of a purple flower with golden veins and a thick purple belt held her clothes together. The collars of the robes were a little parted instantly of snugly crossed right after her neck. Bibi Dong's bubblegum-blonde hair now tied into a decent bun with a familiar bun pin made of golden material passing through it.
Purposely checking out Ja Sun while tilting her head a little, Bibi Dong revealed a greater portion of her neck but Ja Sun's gaze remained on the pin longer.
"It looks good," Ja Sun smiled, his shoulders somewhat relaxing as he realized that they were tensed up in the first place.
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Bibi Dong inquired curiously as Ja Sun looked at her. His head tilting down and his eyes enviously glancing at her belt as it not only accentuated Bibi Dong's thin waist, but more importantly— her prominent hips and buttocks.
"I mean, you look like a bomb that's about to destroy Lana's charm finally."
Ja Sun appreciated as Bibi Dong's lips parted in a snortful of a chuckle, "I doubt that."
Hu Lana is a massive force of attraction at the level that it might just be a force of nature!
'I doubt that, too,' Ja Sun admitted internally, but no point in ruining the possibility of a 'happy ending' by the night just for personal amusement.
"Come in," Bibi Dong beckoned as she turned around, finally revealing the spread of fabric that tried to keep her jiggling—
"Eyes on the bun, boy. You gifted me the pin, remember?" Bibi Dong stated confidentially without looking back.
"Oh, my eyes are on the bun...s. Just keep walking. You're doing great."
Ja Sun agreed.
Bibi Dong didn't mind it... only today. Marriages tend to set people in a form of strange mood and it was already showing by now.
"Is he here?" Ah Yin called out from the washroom.
"Why the hell are you in the washroom?" Ja Sun inquired instantly as Bibi Dong giggled, "She drank too much. Now we have to wait for her to get out and then dress up all over again... these clothes are too hard to move around in and aren't as functional as they look good," Bibi Dong sighed and sat down on the edge of a bed while Ja Sun shrugged and sat next to her shamelessly.
"So, how long is it going to take you to get ready?" Ja Sun inquired, his voice directing to Ah Yin.
"I'd say 10 minutes. But between the three of us, truly, it will take 20."
"Do you have something to eat?" Ja Sun inquired.
"Don't you have anything in your storage ring?" Bibi Dong puckered her lips.
"That's the good stuff. I just want to snack right now... maybe I can eat something else?" Ja Sun smiled mischievously as he leaned forward. Although Bibi Dong has been acting confidently in 'this' regard, seeing the experienced predator reaching out for her, she fell into a panicked state internally while freezing up externally.
"You know what you can eat?"
Ah Yin's muffled voice came from behind the bathroom door. It sounded ominous and somber.
Ja Sun's expression turned gloomy as he returned to his previous position and fell silent, making Bibi Dong surprised.
But what shocked her was Ja Sun shouting after a couple of seconds, "I hate you!"
"And I love you! Now, stop bullying Sister Dong. It's way too hard to dress in these clothes and it was stupidly hard to adjust her neckline to make her look classy and slutty at the same—"
"I hate you!" Bibi Dong, too, whined.
Ah Yin fell silent this time.
"You know... I'd love to watch you two 'love' each other," Ja Sun snickered as Bibi Dong blushed.
