The Matchmaking God was extremely popular in Wanling City.

He was also well-liked in the Eastern Continent, but the immortals there clearly weren't as invested in matters of marriage, which was a stark contrast to Wanling City.

The climate in Wanling City was open and vibrant; everyone was proactive and positive.

Here, freed from the various complex customs found elsewhere, young men and women could mingle openly, leading to countless matches made.

The Matchmaking God spent a lot of time sorting out these matches.

The main purpose of sorting these matches was to resolve solitary stars and unfavorable factors in romance, such as familial opposition, astrological incompatibility, and simple misunderstandings, reducing detours and obstacles and helping lovers ultimately come together.

Sun Wukong, seeing how busy the Matchmaking God was, took the initiative to offer: "Matchmaking God, do you want me to send someone to help you?"

"No need, I can manage on my own."

The Matchmaking God laughed: "However, Great Saint, I do have a favor to ask of you."

"Please tell me."

After hearing the Matchmaking God's request, Sun Wukong nodded and said, "That's easy, so you should arrange it like this..."

He planned with the Matchmaking God for a while.

With the promise from Sun Wukong, the Matchmaking God returned to his residence to find that two people had been waiting for a long time.

"Matchmaking God." The Bear Demon King greeted him as always: "Is there anything I can help you with today?"

"There's actually a lovesick individual..."

The Matchmaking God looked at the Bear Demon King and Ao Luan behind him, heaving a sigh inwardly.

He lived in seclusion, but every day some informed people would come to visit and consult him, all of whom were associated with Sun Wukong.

Unlike Ao Luan, the Bear Demon King was someone who could indeed offer assistance.

"Since you're so sincere, I will give you a hint."

The Matchmaking God glanced at the red thread in the Bear Demon King's hand; it was time for his efforts to bear fruit.

He said: "Go and propose tonight."

"Tonight?" The Bear Demon King was surprised: "Will it be successful?"

"It's fifty-fifty."

The Matchmaking God stated: "But if you miss this chance, you'll have to wait another ten years."

Shocked by these words, the Bear Demon King hurriedly thanked him and left.

That night, the Deer Demon returned home to find the Bear Demon King standing at her doorstep with a bouquet of fresh flowers.

"Sister Deer, you're back."

He warmly approached her.

The Deer Demon couldn't help but frown; she knew the Bear Demon King had liked her for a long time, always thinking of her when he had something good or delicious.

Knowing that she liked knowledgeable individuals, the Bear Demon King had earnestly learned some things.

But he simply wasn't the right type for that.

Even so, over the years, the Deer Demon had been quite moved.

"What are you doing here today?"

The Deer Demon asked.

The Bear Demon King presented the flowers to her, knelt to the ground, recited all the courtship lines he had memorized that afternoon, and then proposed to the Deer Demon.

Unfortunately, the Deer Demon was very indifferent: "Who taught you these courtship lines?"

"Nobody... nobody..."

"You surely couldn't have come up with these words yourself."

The Deer Demon continued.

"...It was Miss Owl who taught me..."

The Bear Demon King, crestfallen, admitted: "She often writes love letters for Immortal Master Erlang, and I memorized one from her."

"...You even rely on others for sweet nothings."

The Deer Demon then asked: "Do you really like me?"

"Of course!"

"Are you willing to do anything for me?"

"Of course!"

"Then go and pluck a hair from the Great King for me."

"Of course!"

The Bear Demon King's words halted: "What? Pluck a hair!?"

"If you truly love me, you should have the courage to do so."

The Deer Demon said, "You always tell me that the Great King is the person you admire the most; if you brought me his hair as a betrothal gift, I might consider it."

Bear Demon King's face turned instantly pale.

Deer Demon then entered the house and closed the door behind her.

Bear Demon King remained stunned for a long time, but on the next day, he still clenched his teeth and made his way to the Wanling Hall.

"Great King."

He knelt on the ground and asked, "May I pluck one of your hairs?"

"How dare you!"

An quietly furious figure was about to kick him out.

Sun Wukong stepped in to stop them and looked over, "What do you want with my hair?"

Bear Demon King shook his head.

He dared not say that it was Deer Sister's request; if the Great King found out, Deer Sister would surely be scolded.

"I'll trade you with my own fur."

Bear Demon King lowered his head, "Great King, just give me one hair, please!"

Sun Wukong looked at him.

"I can see you have your reasons."

Sun Wukong said, "Alright, I'll give you a chance. You can spar with one of my hair clones. If you win, you can take it with you."

Bear Demon King was over the moon with happiness.

Just a trifling clone, what's not to beat!

Having such thoughts, Bear Demon King got thoroughly trounced.

At night, with a bruised face and blue nose, he came disheartened to Deer Demon.

"Not even one hair of the Great King is any less formidable than me."

He continued, "Deer Sister, wait for me. After I seclude myself for ten years and cultivate, I will surely defeat the Great King's monkey hair."

"Pfft..."

Deer Demon couldn't hold back her laughter upon seeing him like this and burst into laughter.

"You actually went through with it!"

The next day, she dragged Bear Demon King to go register.

"The Matchmaking God, did he really succeed?"

From a distance, Ao Luan witnessed the scene and her eyes twinkled with light.

The Matchmaking God's guidance really works!

"Without the Great King's cooperation, it wouldn't have happened so quickly."

The Matchmaking God stroked his beard and said.

Deer Demon and Bear Demon King both adored Sun Wukong; without Sun Wukong bridging the gap, the two would have to struggle for many more years before coming together.

The whole hair-plucking test was actually arranged by Sun Wukong.

The Matchmaking God suggested Bear Demon King propose; Sun Wukong then spoke to Deer Demon, and if she was willing, she could use that as a condition to test Bear Demon King.

"However..."

The Matchmaking God then furrowed his brows and asked Ao Luan standing beside him, "Why does the Great King need to test him personally?"

He didn't understand, was it not alright for Bear Demon King to challenge someone else? Why did Sun Wukong have to take it upon himself.

"Perhaps he wanted to test some new divine skill..."

Ao Luan speculated.

"That's also possible."

The Matchmaking God couldn't help but sigh; even Sun Wukong's single hair could defeat a Demon Saint, how formidable might the original be.

He then became curious again, "I see that demons in Wanling Country all register their marriages, which is quite different from other nations."

The Matchmaking God was aware that although human lands also had the concept of marriage registration, not many people went to register in practice. Many would just hold a banquet and invite friends as a way of getting married.

The management of Wanling City's populace sure had its meticulous aspects.

"Don't compare us with humans."

Ao Luan spoke, "My brother once said marriage is a guarantee of rights."

Decades ago, Huaguo Mountain had established a marriage system different from other nations.

There was a big debate at the time, and Sun Wukong even proposed a very avant-garde concept.

Although Ao Luan was inclined to agree with Sun Wukong's proposal, in the end, she felt that the scheme was too harsh and shocking, so along with the other demons, she opposed Sun Wukong's plan.

Now, the marriage system in Wanling Country is both simple and free, without racial restrictions, as long as any multi-person marriage received consent from every involved party.

When first implemented, this system caused some problems, but over the years, it has gradually improved and stabilized.
