The Immortal Isle of Zechang is about to celebrate its master's wedding. The bride is a famous beauty from the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Realm, accomplished in both literary and martial arts.
The people of Zhaocheng Palace bustle about, replacing old furnishings and giving everything a fresh look. Even the island master himself, usually aloof and distant, with his heart set solely on official duties, has been working day and night, preparing to welcome the wedding sedan and the bridal party into the hall.
The immortals celebrate throughout the land. After three thousand years of devoting himself to the people while remaining alone, their refined and noble lord is finally willing to love and find happiness.
On the wedding day, the people of Zechang crowd the streets, waiting for the bride. A ten-mile stretch of red wedding finery fills the route with festivity.
But then news comes from the palace: a man-eating, poisonous-omen beast has appeared on Mount Ciyun, and the island master has been summoned to rush there in the middle of the night.
The immortals are frantic. A good match is hard to find and even harder to keep. Afraid the bride will be slighted, they want to call off the wedding.
The messenger reassures them: "Don't worry, don't worry. The island master is going to help his beloved."
The immortals grow even more worried: "Is Madam trapped by the beast?!"
The messenger hurriedly waves his hands. "No, no! When the bridal sedan reached Ciyun, Madam heard the beast was eating people, grabbed her whip, and went straight to tame it."
Only then are the immortals reassured. "The island master is going there in person to meet her. They love each other and are devoted to one another. How wonderful!"
But the messenger scratches his head. "I also heard... Everything at Ciyun is under control, and when Madam saw the island master arrive, she simply tossed aside her wedding dress and dragged him off to hunt down more poisonous-omen beasts..."
