The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 237 Past events

The three of them were clearly uninvited, but they drank fruit tea and ate snacks freely in the living room when the host was not at home. Xia Yu and Hua Changyi sat nearby and ate while whispering, while Yan Lan leaned against the French window and watched from afar, waiting for Li Jian to come back.

Yan Lan has no magic now. Xia Yu and Hua Changyi communicate with their eyes and souls, but she can't hear any movement.

Hua Changyi: Stop talking, I’ll take it off for her, no matter whether she agrees or not!
Xia Yu: If it was really Second Brother who tied it for her, and if Second Brother has any plans, then we would be in trouble!

Hua Changyi: What could he have planned? He even covered up the whole thing with magic, really thinking that we wouldn't be able to find out.

Xia Yu: Let’s ask Second Brother first, don’t be impulsive.

Hua Changyi: Even if you persuade me, when Senior Brother Nine comes and sees it, no one can stop me.

Xia Yu was delighted: Ninth Senior Brother is coming too?
Hua Changyi nodded: Master is worried that you can't handle it, so let the three of us arrange our current work as soon as possible and make time to help you together.

Xia Yu: Wow! I really love Master so much, woooo…

Hua Changyi: Don't you love me? Your marriage bracelet was stolen, and I couldn't sense your location. I went to the [Tudi Temple] where you lived for a long time and walked around. Only then did I know from the Tudiye that you came to find Li Jian. If I hadn't informed Brother Nine, I'm afraid he would have run away to find you.

Xia Yu: I love you, love you, heart (●●)!

After pondering for a long time by the floor-to-ceiling window, Yan Lan slowly walked in front of Hua Changyi. Hua Changyi and Xia Yu looked up at her at the same time.

"I can see clearly the reason why it failed without taking it off, right?" Yan Lan's cold tone revealed a hint of expectation.

Hua Changyi glanced at Xia Yu and saw that she didn't say anything. He thought for a moment and replied, "In principle, it's possible."

So Yan Lan stretched out both her hands, because she didn't know which hand the red thread was tied to.

Hua Changyi didn't even touch Yan Lan's hand. He just cast a spell and raised the hand with the red line. Seeing this, Yan Lan put down the other hand.

After the investigation, Hua Changyi put away the magic and said, "This is your backup marriage thread, but it has been transformed into the appearance of a 'universal marriage thread'. Therefore, the red thread is only useful for you and your destined person. If that person is not your destined person, the red thread will only be useful for you and will have no effect on the other person."

Alternative marriage line?
Xia Yu immediately recalled some information about the "backup marriage line". When the master arranged the work, he only required ninety-eight brothers to stay in the mortal world to manage the marriages of people in various parts of the mortal world, while the immortal world (the immortal world in the past also included the divine world) and the underworld were still under the control of the master. The master would personally take charge of the mortal world unless it was a big figure with outstanding contributions. The demon world and the devil world, which were gradually growing, were not originally under the control of the master, but recently they were also making a fuss about asking the master to take charge. If the master really took over, then in the future he would be in charge of the six realms (the divine world, the immortal world, the human world, the demon world, the devil world, and the underworld).

Xia Yu: Brother Seventeen, if I remember correctly, Yan Lan’s backup marriage line should be with Master…

Hua Changyi: Who knows what Li Jian is up to? He is so bold that he actually dared to steal Yan Lan's backup marriage clue from the master.

"Oh...I see." Yan Lan sneered and felt very sad. She didn't want to wait any longer, so she turned around and walked out of Li Jian's villa.

Watching Yan Lan's back going further and further away, Xia Yu and Hua Changyi looked at each other in disbelief. If Li Jian was really with Yan Lan, then the princess of the underworld would become their second sister-in-law. This marriage between the immortal world and the underworld was probably unheard of in the past few hundred years. Besides, as marriage gods, they were not allowed to fall in love. The second brother had already had a precedent, so how could he knowingly commit the same crime again?
There is only one possibility, he is lying to Yan Lan.

……

Li Jian went to his cellar rarely and found that many marriage night pearls had turned purple. He was so happy that he stayed in the cellar for some more time.

Ever since the disappearance of the "white moonlight", Li Jian searched all six realms but could not find any news. He watched helplessly as the night-shining pearl that belonged to him and her slowly lost its color.

It was all because of the matchmaker's drunken matchmaking that she fell in love with someone else, and from then on, she and he were the only two people in the marriage book. The funny thing was that his powerful master was unwilling to correct his mistake, and said something high-sounding like "those two people are no longer in the six realms, and he is powerless."

Where else can one go if not in the six realms? Has everything been reduced to ashes?
People are not in the six realms, but children are.

He didn't blame her for forgetting him so completely, nor did he blame her for falling in love with someone else, because he himself was the God of Marriage, and he knew that she had no choice.

He also once wanted to capture Li Guo and force her father, the demon king Li Huo, to show up, but Li Guo had a mysterious person helping her, and he tried several times but was never able to get close to her.

Last time, Xia Yu and Hua Changyi actually sent Li Guo back to heaven. That was the closest chance for Li Jian to get close to her, but he couldn't do anything in heaven. Once he got to the mortal world, Hua Changyi was waiting for him the whole time. When he wanted to take action, he had to face more than just Hua Changyi. Who knows where the mysterious person next to Li Guo will appear from next time.

Even he was no match for that man.

Originally, Li Jian had gradually stopped forcing it, because it was impossible to force it. But one day a hundred years ago, a demon from the demon world secretly came down to the mortal world, and in order to prevent him from revealing his whereabouts, he exchanged another piece of information with him.

The message was: collect 99 purple night-light pearls of marriage, put them and his white night-light pearl of marriage into the furnace to melt, and those everlasting marriages will melt into the white night-light pearls of marriage. When his white night-light pearl of marriage finally melts into purple, his and her marriage that was cut off by Yue Lao will be reconnected. No matter where she is, even outside the six realms, she will slowly think of him, and he and she will have a chance to renew their previous relationship.

But this matter is of great importance. Not to mention that no one knows why the people from the demon world secretly came to the mortal world, and whether his words can be trusted is another matter. Li Jian is still the God of Marriage. No god in heaven, not even his master Yue Lao, will support him, and may even punish him for falling in love even though he is the God of Marriage.

He now needs the identity of the God of Marriage. If he is not the God of Marriage, he can do nothing. When he finds her, his beloved, he will not need to be the God of Marriage.

……

Li Jian had gone through great pains to find the cellar where the "Marriage Night Pearl" was hidden. In order to avoid being discovered by the Heavenly Court or the outside world, the cellar was isolated from all signals. Mobile phones could not be used here, and the Clairvoyance and Superb Ears could not see or hear what was happening here. He had spent at least a hundred years of cultivation to isolate this cellar.

There was no signal in the cellar, so Li Jian could not only use his cell phone, but he could not even use magic to detect the situation outside. Magic could be used in the cellar, but the magic, like a signal, could not be transmitted outside the cellar.

As soon as he came out of the cellar, Li Jian’s mobile phone received a surveillance alert of “illegal trespassing”.

Turning on the surveillance camera, Li Jian calmly saw Xia Yu and Hua Changyi sitting in the living room of his house. Going back further, he saw the entire process from Yan Lan going to his villa to Yan Lan leaving the villa.
