The great battle between the ancient demon gods was indeed a cataclysmic event. In just a short time, everything around them was destroyed and ruined. Although the Death Ancient Demon God had a slight advantage, it was still very difficult for him to defeat the Mad Ancient Demon God.

The Death Demon God formed complex hand gestures, surrounded by wisps of white mist.

Moments later, a sudden gust of wind exploded, snowflakes flew everywhere, and sharp icicles fell from the sky. The surrounding temperature plummeted instantly, and everything was enveloped in white.

The ancient god of madness was shocked and roared, uttering strange syllables. Moments later, the demonic sound appeared, forming patterns in the air. A fireball fell from the sky, collided with the ice shards, turned into steam, and disappeared.

The Mad Demon God and the Death Demon God stood facing each other, without physical contact. They exchanged complex hand gestures and chanted demonic incantations. This was their strongest duel. After an hour, both of them were covered in sweat, seemingly exhausted.

Flames and ice melted together, turning into smoke and clouds, which covered the area with a thick fog. Beneath the thick fog, red and white light collided, occasionally producing loud explosions.

Han Yuyuan pulled Naji and Han Yuyan pulled Yuxuan, retreating a thousand miles away to avoid being hurt by the cold and burning in the mist.

Han Xingyu remained near the battle between the Mad Demon Ancient God and the Death Demon Ancient God, her phoenix eyes narrowed, as if waiting for something.

Seeing that his strength was gradually being exhausted and that the Death Demon God could still hold out for a while, the Mad Demon God knew that if they continued to fight head-on, he would surely be defeated. A sinister coldness flashed in his dark and turbid pupils. With a slight movement of his hand, a green light flew out from his sleeve and went straight towards the Mad Demon God's hands, which were part of the barrier.

The Death Demon God's eyebrows twitched slightly, already sensing the approaching green light. He raised a mocking sneer, his eyes darkening as a tangible blast of cold air shot out from them. The green light that was flying towards him instantly stopped, frozen by the cold air, turning into ice blocks that fell straight to the ground with a cracking sound.

On the ground lay a green venomous snake that had been frozen into ice and then shattered into eight pieces.

The Death Demon God glanced disdainfully at the venomous snake on the ground and said in a cold, eerie voice, "Playing with poison doesn't seem to be the specialty of the Mad Demon God, does it? If I remember correctly, it is I who enjoy playing with poison."

The Mad Demon God's mind went blank, his body stiffened abruptly, but the demonic chant continued. He closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down. If his mind broke down now, he would lose even more miserably than if he had exhausted his physical strength.

Han Xingyu curled his lips into a playful smile, raised an eyebrow at the Death Demon God, and asked with a roguish air, "Death Demon God, when you asked the Mad Demon God whether he wanted to live or die, what did he choose?"

Han Xingyu's seemingly casual question reminded the Death Demon God that both sides were currently expending their energy, but energy would gradually recover. After all, they were both Mad Demon Gods, and he knew that it would take at least ten or eight years to completely exhaust their energy. Naturally, he did not want to waste such a long time here. At this moment, Han Xingyu pointed out a clear path for him. If he could break through the Mad Demon God's mind, this battle could come to an end.

"If he doesn't answer the three questions, then he has chosen to live. The Mad Demon God chose to live, so I won't kill him easily. I will definitely 'preserve' his precious life and let him live 'well' as he wishes." The Death Demon God smiled sinisterly.

Han Xingyu glanced at the sinister appearance of the Death Demon God and couldn't help but smirk. She thought to herself, amused: This fellow is indeed a "not bad" person; no wonder he has the "honor" of being called the God of Death.

The Death Demon God raised an eyebrow at the Mad Demon God who was ignoring him with his eyes closed, and said with a playful smile, "Your precious snake died a truly tragic death. As its master, shouldn't you mourn for it?"

"It's just a snake," the Mad Demon Ancient God said indifferently.

The Death Demon God narrowed his eyes and said, "This is a treasure that even a God-King could kill with a single bite. I've raised several of them, but none of them have survived. Seeing how well the Mad Demon God has raised it, and how obedient it is, is truly enviable!"

The Mad Demon Ancient God frowned slightly, recalling how he had fed the Green Shadow Serpent with his own blood every day, nearly risking his life to raise it. He had raised over a hundred serpents, but only this one had survived. He never expected it to die so soon, without serving any purpose. He was filled with extreme anger and resentment.

As his anger intensified, his mind began to tremble uncontrollably.

No, we mustn't fall for their trap!

The Mad Demon Ancient God took a deep breath, raised a faint smile, and said in a low voice with his eyes still closed, "Indeed, you should be envious. I have raised more than just this one, and every single one of them is living very well, so I don't care about this mere one at all."

The Death Demon God chuckled mockingly, his voice even more playful: "If we continue like this, you're bound to lose. You want to live, and I will naturally let you live. You should know my rules: so-called living means a fate worse than death. Tell me, shouldn't I now think about how to 'serve' you, the Mad Demon God, and make you live 'comfortably'?"

The Mad Demon God remained silent, but a slight smile played on his lips. Beneath his closed eyelids, his eyes darted around as if he had come up with an idea. The smile on his lips was extremely smug and sinister.

The Death Demon God frowned, but still said with a playful tone, "Femme fatales are always irresistible, but they can never compare to real snakes. Sleeping surrounded by thousands of snakes every night must be extremely enjoyable. Anyway, since the Mad Demon God is so good at raising snakes, he must really like them. From now on, I'll send you snakes every day to keep you company, okay?"

The ancient god of madness opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing within them, carrying a thick aura of malevolence. He raised an eyebrow and sneered, "No matter how fine a snake, how can it compare to a real woman?" He laughed lewdly, "I've slept with countless women, but the taste..." He seemed unsatisfied, licking his lips and laughing obscenely, "Nagi's taste is still the most comforting! If I could enjoy her company every night, it would be quite a feast..."

"Shut up!" the Death Demon God roared.

"Not good!" Han Xingyu keenly sensed that the Death Demon God's mind was in great turmoil.

In just a moment, the worry in Han Xingyu's eyes turned into a deep smile. He sighed inwardly, thinking that Nagi was undoubtedly the Death Demon God's weakness. The Mad Demon God was indeed very clever, managing to turn the tide even when faced with certain defeat! However, at this moment, he was too excited to see the Death Demon God in such a state of confusion, and his mind became chaotic as well!

I've been waiting here for so long, just to make him lose his composure, haven't I?

Unexpectedly, he ended up leading himself to his own demise!

As a person, one should not be too complacent. Until the very end, who knows who will win? Getting excited too early will only lead to a more miserable defeat!

A playful smile flashed in Han Xingyu's eyes. With a flash, he reappeared, already standing between the Death Demon God and the Mad Demon God.

The Death Demon God was stunned. He tried to calm his anger but was powerless. He frowned and looked at the appearing Han Xingyu. He gritted his teeth and transmitted his voice, "He is too despicable. My mind is in turmoil and I cannot calm down in a short time."

"I know, you go and rest over there! I'll take care of him," Han Xingyu waved her hand and transmitted her voice.

"You?" The Death Demon God asked with some concern, frowning as he transmitted his voice, "Can you handle him?"

"Normally, no, but now that his mind is in disarray, he's a perfect meal!" Han Xingyu transmitted his voice with great delight. His eyes shimmered as he stared at the Mad Demon Ancient God, as if he were eyeing an extremely delicious dish.

The Death Demon God shuddered at the light in Han Xingyu's eyes; the feeling was truly chilling. Although he had only just met this mysterious man, his intuition told him that this guy was far more suited to the title of Death God than he was. He then turned to the Mad Demon God, his gaze filled with pity and sympathy. The Mad Demon God looked slightly surprised when he met the Death Demon God's sympathetic gaze, but the Death Demon God had already flashed away a thousand miles to Naji's side.

The Mad Demon Ancient God was taken aback, but Han Xingyu already spoke with an evil smile: "Mad Demon Ancient God, your cultivation is truly high. You've been cultivating for hundreds of millions of years, haven't you?"

The Mad Demon Ancient God, bewildered, hadn't even spoken when Han Xingyu said leisurely, "How wonderful! To instantly possess the cultivation others have painstakingly accumulated over hundreds of millions of years is truly exhilarating!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fiery red root of the god floated out, and a powerful suction force pulled towards the Mad Demon Ancient God. The Mad Demon Ancient God's face was already distorted by this suction force. He opened his eyes wide in horror and watched helplessly as the root of cultivation in his body floated out, his cultivation was taken away with it, and his body was aging rapidly, gradually becoming weak. His skin wrinkled like the bark of an old tree. Everything happened too suddenly, too quickly, without even a breath's time.

Han Xingyu withdrew his Divine Root and let out a satisfied breath. Compared to Wu Xie's secluded cultivation, he preferred absorbing the cultivation of others. He raised an extremely wicked and charming smile and said in a light tone, "This young master just loves this kind of easy money!"

The Mad Demon Ancient God had fallen heavily to the ground from mid-air. His white hair, blown by the wind, had detached from his scalp, leaving very little, and his figure was extremely thin.

The Death Demon God and his companions rushed over from a thousand miles away. Because of the extremely thick fog, they couldn't see clearly what had just happened. They only returned after seeing the Mad Demon God fall into the fog.

The Death Demon God stared in disbelief at the now powerless and aged Mad Demon God. Although he didn't know what had just happened, seeing the Mad Demon God, who had just managed to distract him and gain the upper hand, in such a wretched state made him somewhat afraid of this mysterious man. His voice trembled slightly, and he tried to suppress the trembling as he asked in a low voice, "What should we do with him?"

Han Xingyu looked at Yu Xuan with amusement, noticing his complicated expression and apparent contradiction. He chuckled, "You're not being soft-hearted about this person, are you?" He stretched and said lazily, "If you want to be a dutiful son and be soft-hearted about this person, I might give you face and spare his life."

"Don't worry about me," Yu Xuan said softly, but seemed somewhat reluctant as he turned away.

Han Xingyu smiled calmly, turned to look at Naji, a playful smile appearing on her lips, and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Naji, you must hate this person very much, right?"

Nagi blushed, her eyes flashing with anger as she recalled how this man had tormented her the previous night. She quickly lowered her gaze, glancing cautiously at the Death Demon God, seemingly worried about being rejected. In truth, since following the Death Demon God, she had never slept with another man. Even when practicing her seductive arts, she only used the heart's blood of virgins. This was a betrayal. In the past, when she didn't know the Death Demon God loved her, she didn't care. But now, knowing he loved her, this feeling of betrayal filled her with remorse, like her heart being roasted on a fire, boiled in a pot—extremely painful, deeply regretful, and heart-wrenching.

The Death Mogu seemed to sense Nagi's panic. He suddenly reached out and grasped her hand, his voice low and slightly hoarse, yet gentle: "I never hold grudges about the past, just like last night. We didn't understand each other back then, but..." His gaze suddenly turned to Nagi, his voice becoming domineering: "From now on, you're not allowed to misbehave! If you disobey again, or try to seduce another virgin, I will not let you off easily!"

"Not going to let it go easily? How do you intend to punish me?" Nagi looked at him with some curiosity.

He said in a serious tone, "I'll beat your ass to a pulp! Or break your legs! Basically, I'll lock you up next to me and forbid anyone else from seeing you!"

Nagi was taken aback, her smile becoming somewhat stiff. She found it amusing; this man was becoming more and more like a child, but she just happened to like his domineering nature.

Her slightly flushed face revealed the sweetness in her heart.

Perhaps every woman is caught in a dilemma, seemingly hoping that her partner will be domineering and possessive, meaning that he can't live without her, yet also hoping for her own free space. Although this is a contradiction, the one who truly leans more towards it varies from person to person.

A person like Nagi has never experienced true love since birth, whether it's family love or friendship. She has nothing. She is extremely insecure, so she prefers to be possessed by him and hear his domineering words. Only then can she clearly feel his love, feel that strong sense of security, and feel that sweetness of not being able to live without her.

"You two! Always all lovey-dovey!" Han Xingyu looked at the two with extreme resentment, pouting, "Luckily, the Mad Demon Ancient God can't run away now, otherwise I reckon he would have taken the opportunity to escape again!"

Nagi and the Death Demon God coughed awkwardly at the same time, but when they heard the other coughing like them, they couldn't help but laugh at the same time.

Watching this old married couple flaunting their affection in front of others like newlyweds, Han Xingyu shook his head helplessly and complained, "Forget it, you two should just go back to your wedding night. Staying here won't help you at all, and you're just ruining my mood! Really, it's like you're afraid others won't know how loving you are! I'd rather kill this mad ancient god myself. I was originally thinking of avenging Nagi, but really, really..."

"Uh!" Nagi said with some guilt, "I really wanted to kill him with my own hands."

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! You want to kill me? I won't!" Han Xingyu glared at Naji and the Death Demon God, hoisted the Mad Demon God onto his shoulder, and waved to Han Yuyuan and Han Yuyan, who were covering their mouths and snickering, saying, "Take your Uncle Yuxuan and me home for dinner! Ignore this lewd couple!"

Before Nagi and the Death Demon God could react, Han Xingyu, carrying the Mad Demon God, vanished in a flash. Then, the two children, each holding one of Yu Xuan's hands, also disappeared.

"It's teleportation..." The Death Demon God trembled slightly, frowning as he said, "This person is too mysterious and unpredictable." He looked at Nagi with suspicion and asked, "How much do you know about him?"

Nagi shook her head with a wry smile and said, "I only made a deal with him. I don't know him at all."

"After this parting, I'm afraid I'll never encounter such a wondrous person again." The Death Demon God looked with some emotion in the direction where Han Xingyu had disappeared.

As if she had just thought of something, Nagi's eyes lit up, and she quickly took out a sheepskin map from her sleeve and said, "That person gave it to me before, saying that if I need anything in the future, I can go to the place on this map to find him."

……

Han Xingyu teleported back to the mountain and stopped right where Hua Qianye was standing. He suddenly appeared and bumped into Hua Qianye, who helplessly stepped aside and squinted at the person he was carrying.

"Mad Demon Ancient God, it's been a long time. I didn't expect this meeting to be so special." Hua Qianye's voice was very deep.

The Mad Demon Ancient God was extremely familiar with this voice. He looked at Hua Qianye in disbelief, and after a long while, he gave a bitter smile. It seemed that being captured by this mysterious main god was not a coincidence, but a grudge from tens of millions of years ago.

When his cultivation was completely destroyed, he no longer cared about life or death. He simply closed his eyes, neither looking at Hua Qianye nor answering her, as if he were a corpse, unable to hear or see anything.

"Heh." Hua Qianye sneered.

Han Xingyu said with a playful tone, "This guy chose to live. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hua Qianye narrowed his phoenix eyes, his blue pupils filled with amusement. How could he not understand? But he pretended to be confused and said, "People naturally want to live. Who wants to die? Naturally, they choose to live."

Finally, the ancient, mad god, who had remained silent until now, spoke, his voice low, hoarse, and aged: "I want to die!"

Upon hearing this, Hua Qianye grinned, laughing heartily as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Hehe, Mad Demon Ancient God, are you joking with me?"

Han Xingyu laughed heartily, bursting into tears, and said, "I think he's gotten so old his brain's rusted!"

"Do you think we can let him die?" Hua Qianye tilted his head, narrowed his phoenix eyes, raised an eyebrow slightly, and gave a devilish smile.

Han Xingyu narrowed her phoenix eyes, raised an eyebrow slightly, and smiled captivatingly: "Of course not. Since he chose the path of survival with the Ancient God of Death, how can he just go back on his word!"

Hua Qianye nodded in strong agreement, stroking his beautifully curved chin, and said with a wicked smile, "Indeed, no! Who is the Mad Demon Ancient God? Someone who has held a high position for so long is naturally a man of his word, and there is no room for falsehood! Since he has chosen to live, how can he change it so easily! If he doesn't want to live well and instead wants to die, people will laugh at him! We should help him live 'well'!"

Han Xingyu gave an evil smile, revealing her devilish nature.

Hua Qianye's enchanting smile revealed her true enchanting nature.

Two equally stunningly beautiful men, with equally black hearts, were now rubbing their hands together, first dismantling every bone in the Mad Demon Ancient God's body, then kneading him like dough, and finally, laughing heartlessly, suggesting a football match. Then, the Mad Demon Ancient God's muffled groans mingled with their carefree laughter, one after another.

Han Yuyuan and Han Yuyan pulled Yuxuan along. Han Yuyuan pouted and complained, "Daddy, we've been looking everywhere for you! We thought you teleported to Mother's place, but it turns out you're playing with Uncle's! You didn't even invite my brother and me!"

"You also want to play Cuju?" Han Xingyu asked, raising an eyebrow as she glanced at the newcomers, her feet still on the ground.

"This isn't playing football, it's kicking people!" Han Yuyuan pouted, looking quite adorable.

"Almost!" Han Xingyu laughed heartily. "This is much more fun than playing Cuju (ancient Chinese football). Cuju is hard and doesn't feel like kicking at all, but this person's skin and flesh, although it's as old as tree bark, feels quite good when you kick it!"

"Really?" Han Yuyan, who had just been lamenting, suddenly brightened up, eager to try, and exclaimed happily, "Daddy, kick it for me, kick it for me, I want to try kicking it too!"

Hua Qianye caught a glimpse of Yu Xuan out of the corner of her eye. Yu Xuan had tidied herself up and was as gentle and refined as she had been millions of years ago, but her face was much paler and her body much weaker, making her look extremely frail.

Yu Xuan simply lowered his eyelids, seemingly not seeing Hua Qianye at all. Hua Qianye withdrew his gaze from Yu Xuan, hooked his foot, snatched the 'cuju' from Han Xingyu's feet, and said with a wicked smile, "Yu Yuan girl, you can play cuju, but your father and I haven't decided who is better yet. If you want to join your father's side, then another person must join me."

Han Yuyuan hurriedly looked at her brother, Han Yuyan. Han Yuyan had already received Hua Qianye's signal, and was rubbing his ankle, looking at her with a pained expression and extreme resentment. He said angrily, "Do you want me to die? I used several times more magic power than you before, and I'm already exhausted! I only did that so desperately to cast spells to stop the Mad Demon Ancient God so that you could use less magic power. Do you really want me to play football with this exhausted body? Can you really bear to let your brother die from exhaustion?"

Han Yuyuan felt a little wronged. She had wanted to use more of her magic power before, but her brother insisted on taking on the lion's share. She had also wanted to contribute more, but she hadn't had the chance.

Looking at Han Yuyan's exhausted appearance, she felt a pang of heartache. Of course, she understood that her brother loved her and that's why he took on such a heavy and arduous task. She pouted her pink lips and whispered in protest, "I didn't say you had to go."

"You just haven't had a chance to say it yet! Your eyes have already betrayed you!" Han Yuyan said helplessly, "Just blink, and I'll know what you're thinking. Don't try to deny it!"

Han Yuyuan was somewhat embarrassed. She glared at Han Yuyan resentfully and said angrily, "Yes, you're the best! You can read my mind! I can't hide anything from you! I blink and you know what I'm thinking! I wiggle my butt and you know whether my fart smells good or bad! Humph!"

Upon hearing this, Han Xingyu and Hua Qianye burst into laughter.

Hua Qianye chuckled mischievously, "Your precious daughter has truly inherited your skills! She's incredibly devilish!"

"Of course!" Han Xingyu said proudly.

"Alas!" Hua Qianye said with a sorrowful expression, "I'm afraid that brat Han Zhufeng will have a terrible future! He's truly pitiful!"

Han Xingyu said with a roguish grin, "Tch, that kid might actually be enjoying it! He might feel uncomfortable if he doesn't get bullied by my daughter every day!"

"You mean, he's a masochist?" Hua Qianye raised an eyebrow, suppressing a laugh.

"Of course!" Han Xingyu chuckled mischievously, "Like father, like daughter, that's why my daughter is like me. Like father, like son, that's why..."

"So what!" an indignant voice rang out, interrupting Han Xingyu's words.

"Uh!" Han Xingyu was stunned and stiffly turned his head to look. At this moment, Han Tianci was glaring at him with a dark face.

"Hehe." Han Xingyu shrank his neck and chuckled strangely, "Since you already understand, I won't say any more!"

Han Tianci narrowed his dangerous eyes, glaring angrily at Han Xingyu, and said coldly, "I don't understand! Just say what you want to say, or keep it to yourself!"

Hua Qianye, as if he couldn't live without adding fuel to the fire, enthusiastically declared, "So like father, like son! Han Zhufeng is a masochist, so Han Tianci must also be a masochist!" He then raised an eyebrow at Han Xingyu and asked, "Am I right? Is that what you mean?"

Han Xingyu's lips twitched, and she rolled her eyes at Hua Qianye.

Han Tianci sneered, his voice dark and menacing. "Is that what you mean, Han Xingyu?"

"Uh!" Han Xingyu said helplessly, "Pretty much, anyway, he already said it!"

Han Tianci suddenly threw a punch, which Han Xingyu nimbly dodged. Undeterred, Han Tianci struck with a palm, which Han Xingyu narrowly avoided. He then kicked her, which she again barely managed to dodge. Just as Han Tianci was about to deliver another punch, Han Yuyuan let out a helpless sigh: "Father, my future uncle has kicked 'Cuju' into your goal! You've lost!"

"What!" Han Xingyu was furious. Han Tianci's fist was already poised to strike. He glared at Han Tianci and said angrily, "We'll settle our score later!"

Han Tianci loosened his fists and surprisingly nodded in agreement, standing to the side with his arms crossed.

Han Xingyu angrily charged at Hua Qianye, shouting, "You deliberately provoked Han Tianci and kicked him in when I wasn't looking! You didn't win, you cheated!"

"All's fair in war. I'm the kind of person who wins and that's it. I never care how I won!" Hua Qianye raised his eyebrows arrogantly, looking extremely smug.

"You!" Han Xingyu turned to Han Tianci beside her, provoking him, "He's using you, what do you think we should do? Are you really willing to be used by him for nothing? Come on, let's beat him up together!"

Just as Han Tianci was about to speak, Hua Qianye flicked his hand, and a blue suit of armor floated in front of Han Tianci. He said leisurely, "Tianci, haven't you always wanted to study this armor of mine? Today I'll lend it to you for your study!"

Han Tianci's eyes lit up, and a sly smile crept onto his lips. "This was given to you by that mysterious old man. Are you really willing to part with it? Aren't you afraid that if I take it apart, I won't be able to repair it?"

"That mysterious old man will eventually appear." Hua Qianye narrowed her phoenix eyes, recalling the old man who saved Xuan Minfeng in the cold pool. She couldn't help but guess that this man's supernatural powers were probably those of the head of the gods in this world that the two children, Han Yuyuan and Han Yuyan, had mentioned.

Han Tianci took the blue armor and nodded, saying, "Alright, you've won me over. I'll use you for a bit!" After saying that, he buried his head in disassembling the blue armor, looking completely fascinated.

"Hey, Han Tianci, you have no integrity! You were bought off by a piece of tattered armor? You were used like that? You're worthless!" Han Xingyu cursed angrily.

Han Tianci suddenly reached out.

Han Xingyu was still cursing when she saw him reach out to her. Her voice filled with anger, she said, "I didn't use you, why would I give you something to bribe you!"

Han Tianci didn't even lift his eyelids, continuing to stare at the blue armor, stretching out his hand and saying calmly, "My Black Whirlwind Divine Robe! Here you go!"

"Black Whirlwind Divine Robe!" Han Xingyu suddenly remembered that he had lent that treasure to the Death Demon God and forgotten to ask for it back!

"Wait a minute, I'll be right back!" Han Xingyu was about to teleport away when Hua Qianye stopped him first, raising an eyebrow and smiling, "Have you forgotten? You lost the 'cuju' game."

"I know, I know, so what if I lost! Don't stop me, I'm going to find the Death Demon God. If I'm too late, it will be hard to find him!" He knew that after this battle, the Death Demon God and Nagi understood his and the other's hearts and would definitely not care about the affairs of the Demon God Realm, but would travel around the Three Realms.

"You think you can just leave after losing?" Hua Qianye raised an eyebrow, still blocking his way.

Seeing him blocking her way like a dead ox, Han Xingyu got angry and, with a shameless attitude, said, "There was no bet before the kick, so even if I lose, so what?"

"Hehe, who said there wasn't a bet beforehand?" Hua Qianye chuckled playfully. "If you can't remember, let me help you recall!" Hua Qianye narrowed his eyes and grinned wickedly. "Let's start from when we were dismantling the bones of the Mad Demon Ancient God. You said it looked like an old tree vine, and that a football made from tree vines would be pretty good, so we both kneaded it into a 'football.' You said, 'Since we have a football, we should naturally play a game.' Did you say that?"

Han Xingyu frowned, then nodded and said, "I told you." As soon as she finished speaking, Han Xingyu seemed to remember something, her eyes widening suddenly. Just as she was about to retort, Hua Qianye spoke rapidly, "I said I wouldn't play because my shoes and socks would get dirty. You said, 'Let's play a game, and if I win, you'll wash my shoes and socks!' Now I've won, my shoes and socks are dirty, and you're leaving? Doesn't that seem like you're running away? Hmm?" Hua Qianye raised an eyebrow, her smile extremely charming.

That handsome smile looked extremely ugly to Han Xingyu. He gritted his teeth and said, "Get out of my way! I don't have time to waste with you right now! I'll send you ten or even a hundred pairs of new shoes and socks tomorrow!"

Hua Qianye still blocked my way, raising an eyebrow and smiling, "That won't do. These shoes and socks were a gift your sister gave me before she went into seclusion. Even a thousand pairs of new shoes and socks can't compare to them!"

Han Xingyu clenched her fists tightly, her voice muffled and filled with boundless anger: "You think your magic is so profound! You could just casually recite a Cleansing Incantation and it would be clean!"

Hua Qianye shook his head and said helplessly, "No, these were made by your sister in the mortal realm using mortal fabric. They're not celestial or divine shoes, so those spells won't work."

"Damn it!" Han Xingyu finally couldn't help but curse, angrily saying, "Why didn't you say so earlier! If I had known it would be this troublesome, I would never have let you play 'Cuju'!"

Hua Qianye feigned annoyance, but her eyes were full of cunning. She pouted and said helplessly, "I told you long ago that my shoes and socks would get dirty. You were too playful and didn't pay any attention to what I said. You even swore that you would wash them for me."

Han Xingyu was helpless. She looked at Hua Qianye's shoes and socks and could only admit defeat. The defeat was that they were made by Sister Wuxie, and she could only wash them!

Han Xingyu said sullenly, "Okay, okay, move aside, I'll wash as soon as I get back!"

A triumphant smile flashed in Hua Qianye's eyes as she nodded and said, "Okay." After saying that, she shifted her body, which was as large as a Buddha.

Han Xingyu's figure flashed and she instantly teleported away.

After Han Xingyu left, Han Yuyuan chuckled, "My future uncle is so naughty! These aren't shoes my aunt made at all!"

"Huh?" Hua Qianye's face stiffened. He had even fooled the older one, but he couldn't fool the younger one. It seems that the younger generation is surpassing the older one!

Hua Qianye squatted down, patted the little girl's head, and asked with amusement, "How do you know these aren't shoes made by your aunt?"

Han Yuyuan said confidently, "The shoes Aunt made for my future uncle are so beautiful! I've seen them; they're not these at all!"

"Made for me? Did she really make shoes for me?" Hua Qianye was excited, thrilled, and beaming with joy.

"Huh?" Han Yuyuan blinked her big eyes, asking in confusion, "Didn't Aunt give it to your future uncle? That's strange. You didn't give it to him? You really didn't get it?"

Hua Qianye quickly suppressed her excessive excitement, turned to look at the little girl's bewildered expression, her heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad feeling. She asked timidly, "Could it be that she's already given away those shoes?"

"Yes!" Han Yuyuan said innocently, "Could it be that Auntie didn't make them for my future uncle? A few days before Auntie went into seclusion, I went to her room and saw those shoes. They were very beautiful, so I asked her where she bought them. Then Auntie said that she made them. I was sure at the time that the shoes must have been made by Auntie for my future uncle. The next day, I went to Auntie's room again, but the shoes were gone. Auntie must have given them away."

"Gone...?" Hana Chiba's voice trembled slightly.

Upon hearing this, Han Tianci's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he looked at Han Yuyuan with a meaningful gaze.

Han Yuyuan met Han Tianci's gaze and smiled somewhat awkwardly.

Han Tianci transmitted his voice, "Little girl, you're really something! First, you saw through Hua Qianye's deception of your father, yet you watched helplessly as he was tricked by her, thus avenging your father's earlier failure to tell you about playing 'Cuju'! Then, by using this current situation, you calculated that Hua Qianye would lose his mind when it came to matters concerning your aunt, avenging your father and even fooling that cunning fox, Hua Qianye!"

Han Yuyuan pouted and transmitted her voice, "No matter how capable you are, you're not as capable as Uncle Tianci! You see through me so clearly! You can't tell my future uncle that I lied to him. If he finds out, he definitely won't let me off easily!"

Han Tianci's lips curled into a smile, his eyes filled with a loving tenderness, but his voice, transmitted through telepathy, was stern: "Now you know you're afraid of him? Why weren't you afraid when you were lying to him? You're ruining your aunt's reputation, giving her the stigma of making shoes for other men! You'd better explain yourself to Hua Qianye right now, or I won't let you off easily! Besides him, I'll also be there for you! Once your aunt comes out of seclusion, I'll tell her about this, and she won't let you off easily then either!"

"Uncle is the worst! Humph!" Han Yuyuan angrily transmitted her voice, then turned to look at Hua Qianye. Seeing that her future uncle still looked devastated, she felt a little sorry for him and whispered, "Perhaps Aunt has put it away. I didn't ask her if she gave it away. Uncle, think about it, is there a necessary day for Aunt to give you a gift? If there is a suitable day to give you a gift after she comes out of seclusion, perhaps Aunt prepared it before going into seclusion and then put it away so that she could give it to you in time when she comes out."

"According to Zi Mo's telepathic connection with her, she should be out of seclusion in less than three days. After that, what day would she give me something?" Hua Qianye had a headache. Come to think of it, she didn't know her own birthday, nor Xuan Minfeng's. Besides birthdays, what other days would she receive gifts? She didn't seem to have ever given her anything. The more Hua Qianye thought about it, the more depressed and saddened she became. Could it be that she really wasn't giving it to her? If not to her, then to whom?

Hua Qianye's gaze fell on Han Tianci, and she asked helplessly, "Tianci, your birthday seems to be three months away, and Xingyu's birthday is nine months away. Do you know when your father's birthday is, your maternal grandfather's birthday is, and your uncles' birthdays are coming up soon?"

"It's all two months from now," Han Tianci replied directly.

"Two months later? Then it won't be them anymore. Who else can I send it to?" Hua Qianye rubbed her temples, continuing to ponder.

At this moment, someone who had been ignored finally spoke up: "Does the Divine Wind King already have a new love? He cares so much about the newcomer's shoes; he must have forgotten Miao'er's tears."

Hua Qianye frowned slightly, looked at Yu Xuan, remained silent for a moment, and then said to Han Tianci, "Tianci, take Yu Yuan and Yu Yan back. I have something to say to this person alone."

Han Tianci nodded and waved to Yu Yuan and Yu Yan. The two children were very sensible and didn't ask any questions. They obediently followed Han Tianci away.

Hua Qianye glanced indifferently at the Mad Demon Ancient God on the ground, ignoring him, and sat down at the stone table. He poured himself a cup of wine, took a sip, and then looked up at Yu Xuan, who was standing there, and said, "Come and sit down."

Yu Xuan walked over, passing by the Mad Demon Ancient God as if he saw nothing, and finally sat down opposite Hua Qianye.

Hua Qianye poured him a glass of wine.

Yu Xuan didn't drink it; he just quietly looked at the clear wine in the glass.

"What? Afraid I'll poison you?" Hua Qianye said with a playful smile, "I thought you weren't afraid of death."

Yu Xuan picked up his wine cup, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp. His face showed a hint of melancholy, and his voice was hoarse as he said, "I haven't drunk alcohol for many years. I'm just afraid that one cup will make me drunk."

"Wouldn't it be better for you to be drunk?" Hua Qianye also tilted her head back and drank a cup.

"Yes, it's even better if you're drunk!" Yu Xuan smiled wryly, but the smile was bitter, and his voice, slightly tinged with alcohol, asked in a hoarse tone, "How did you manage that?"

"Hmm?" Hua Qianye feigned confusion, filled his wine glass, picked it up, and took a small sip.

"How can I forget her?" Yu Xuan took the wine pot and instead of pouring into the cup, he poured the whole pot into his mouth.

Hua Qianye frowned slightly, easily snatched the wine pot from his hand, and said in a low voice, "At least leave me some."

Yu Xuan wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, his smile still bitter and hoarse as he said, "I... I can never forget it."

Hua Qianye's gaze showed slight hesitation. He felt somewhat indebted to Yu Xuan, but he was also very wary of him because his feelings for Wan Li Miao were indeed no less than those for Xuan Minfeng.

After a long period of inner turmoil, Hua Qianye sighed softly, finished his cup of wine, his gaze darkened, and slowly said, "I am not the Divine Wind King."

Yu Xuan was taken aback, then asked with a faint smile, "Forgetting your name, forgetting yourself, will allow you to forget her?"

Hua Qianye rubbed his temples, took a breath, and then said, "I have found her reincarnation."

"Reincarnation? The Blood Pact Divine Song, she fell into the icy pool. Could she still leave behind a soul for reincarnation?" Yu Xuan clearly didn't believe it. He reached for the wine, but the cup was empty. He reached for the wine pot, only to remember it was in Hua Qianye's hands. He could only shake his head and smile bitterly, "Is this your way of treating guests? Is it because you're no longer the Divine Wind King that you can't even afford wine?"

Hua Qianye's lips twitched. He didn't know much about Yu Xuan, only that Xuan Minfeng had fought with Yu Xuan, trapped Yu Xuan, and then something irreversible happened.

"Here you go." Hua Qianye tossed the wine jug to Yu Xuan, who immediately tilted his head back and started chugging. Hua Qianye scoffed, "It would be best if you died drunk. Did you think I wanted to tell you about her reincarnation? I was afraid you'd try to take her from me! Now that you don't believe me, that's perfect! I can finally rest easy!"

Yu Xuan paused in his drinking, turned and stared at Hua Qianye with a scrutinizing gaze for a long time before finally uttering, "You really are no longer the Divine Wind King; you've changed a lot."

He clearly still didn't believe in the reincarnation of Wanli Miao.

Naturally, things have changed a lot. Hyun Min-feng is Hyun Min-feng, and Hua Qianye is Hua Qianye.

Hua Qianye subtly concealed the frustration in her eyes and said calmly, "In your opinion, has it gotten better or worse?"

"Half for each of us," Yu Xuan replied casually, then tilted his head back and gulped down another glass of wine.

Hua Qianye's lips twitched once again.

Yu Xuan clearly saw Hua Qianye's lips twitching. He put down the wine pot and teased, "Did you have a stroke? Or is your face paralyzed?"

Hua Qianye was somewhat speechless, but in the end, he suppressed his urge to turn this person into a "cuju" player as well, and said in a deep voice, "Whether you believe it or not is up to you, I have already told you anyway."

Yu Xuan frowned, lowered his eyelids, making it impossible to discern his thoughts. After a long while, he said in a low voice, "Why tell me? Since we've met again, since we've fallen in love again, why tell me? You know my feelings for her. Aren't you afraid I'll steal her away? Or are you too confident in yourself? Are you trying to humiliate me by saying this? Are you telling me that, whether in the past life or this life, she only ever loved you? That I'm destined to be a fool who only gives and never receives anything in return?"

Hua Qianye's voice suddenly turned cold, losing all patience, and she said in a chilling tone, "What you think is your business. All I need to do is tell you the facts. Whether you try to take it or not is your choice, and whether you succeed or fail is not up to me."

Yu Xuan frowned even more deeply and asked in a flat voice, "Why did you save me?"

Hua Qianye let out a sigh, looking somewhat annoyed, and said, "This is what I owe you. If it weren't for Shenfeng Wang's impulsive and reckless actions, you wouldn't have suffered this calamity. I'm repaying you on your behalf. If it weren't for your suggestion of a fake marriage, she might have been violated by the Mad Demon Ancient God long ago. She feels very fortunate to have been able to reincarnate cleanly."

"She knows?" Yu Xuan was taken aback.

"Yes, I've found the memories of my past life." Hua Qianye nodded.

Yu Xuan smiled wryly, "Since you've remembered and can still choose you, there's no need for me to fight for you."

Hua Qianye looked into Yu Xuan's eyes, but Yu Xuan lowered his gaze. Hua Qianye sighed softly and said, "She will emerge from seclusion in three days. Shall we stay and see her?"

"Okay." Yu Xuan readily agreed, and when he opened his eyes again, there was a hearty smile in them, as if he had let go of his worries.

If he were truly sad and heartbroken, that would be one thing, but his feigned composure and cheerfulness left Hua Qianye with an indescribable bitterness. This feeling was a mixture of sympathy for Yu Xuan and a deep understanding that the cruelest executioner for him, the one who had destroyed his love and stolen everything, was herself. So she felt conflicted and helpless.

Two days later, at the foot of the mountain, three unfathomable people specifically asked to see Ruoxue.

"Those three should be from the Fu family. How much do you know about the Fu family?" Han Xingyu looked at Hua Qianye, her expression very unpleasant.

Hua Qianye, however, acted as if it were none of his business.

"Hey, say something!" Han Xingyu was getting impatient, frowning as she said, "Grandpa is entertaining those three, but he can't delay too long. They specifically asked to see Xue'er, and they won't leave until they see her! Aren't they incredibly capable? How did they know Xue'er was here? I clearly set up arrays and barriers around Xue'er's courtyard. Those were things that Yu Yuan and Yu Yan comprehended from within the Root of God. They shouldn't be detectable by outsiders within those arrays and barriers!"

Hua Qianye leisurely sipped her tea, as if she hadn't heard Han Xingyu's words at all.

Han Xingyu was even angrier. She knocked the teacup out of Hua Qianye's hand and said angrily, "Are you still my brother-in-law? I'm in trouble now, and you're just going to stand by and watch?"

"So now you admit I'm your brother-in-law?" Hua Qianye shook his head, feigning helplessness, his face full of melancholy, his voice mournful, "Alas, it's no use admitting it. I'm still not your brother-in-law. Your sister Wuxie is still in seclusion. Who knows when her wedding day will be!"

Han Xingyu gritted her teeth and said, "If you help me resolve this matter, I'll arrange for Sister Wuxie to marry you as soon as she emerges from seclusion!"

"Hmm? Are you sure you have that ability?" Hua Qianye looked at him suspiciously.

"Definitely!" Han Xingyu nodded vigorously.

Hua Qianye pouted and said, "Then you need me even less."

Han Xingyu was slightly taken aback.

Hua Qianye smiled bitterly, "I've worked so hard for so long, and your sister Wuxie still cruelly locked me out and went into seclusion by herself. Yet you were able to get her to marry me as soon as she came out of seclusion. Aren't you much more capable than me? If someone as capable as you can't solve this, how could I possibly solve it? I think you've entrusted yourself to the wrong person!"

Han Xingyu's face fell, and she said in an extremely deep voice, "Because it's your own business, you've become indecisive and unable to solve it."

Hua Qianye took another teacup, but this time she didn't drink the tea herself. Instead, she handed it to Han Xingyu, saying, "It's her own business, and although it's difficult for her to solve, she has to solve it herself. I don't need anyone to persuade her, nor do I want her to be forced to marry me. I only want her to be willing. So I don't need your help, and likewise, you won't need my help."

Han Xingyu took the tea, drank it in large gulps, and finally stood up, looking refreshed, and said, "The tea is very good." After saying that, he turned and left.

Hua Qianye watched his retreating figure, a smile playing on her lips.

Han Xingyu already understood that she had to face her own situation with Xue'er, and she also had to personally deal with whether the Fu family members were well-intentioned or malicious.

Arriving at the courtyard where Ruoxue lived, Han Xingyu hesitated for a moment before stepping inside.

"You're finally here!" Ruoxue looked at him with annoyance and said irritably, "I'm so bored being locked up in this courtyard all day. And these lousy runes, drawn everywhere, they're so annoying to look at! Don't you have any aesthetic sense? The runes are so ugly! How can anyone live in such a dreary place!"

Ruoxue glared at Han Xingyu with wide eyes, looking like she was about to accuse him. She didn't know why she always liked to lose her temper with him. Actually, in the other world, she had been locked in a small room for months without feeling anything. But now, she really wanted to find something to cause trouble for him. It seemed that teasing him had gradually become the only thing she liked most in this world.

Normally, he would try to appease her when she was this angry, but today, he simply didn't have the heart to do so. Han Xingyu said directly, "The Fu family has arrived."

Ruoxue was somewhat taken aback, but instantly suppressed all her outward temper and became extremely calm, asking, "How did they know I was here?"

Seeing that Ruoxue had suddenly calmed down, Han Xingyu curled the corners of her lips and said, "Were you deliberately throwing a tantrum at me just now to try and coax me?"

Ruoxue blushed and said awkwardly, "I don't have time for this! What happened? Let's get down to business!"

Han Xingyu nodded and said seriously, "Three middle-aged men have come looking for you. They said they were from the Fu family. My grandfather is currently entertaining them with tea."

"You don't know anything else?" Ruoxue frowned.

"Mm." Han Xingyu nodded.

The atmosphere was somewhat heavy, but it quickly returned to calm and tranquility.

Ruoxue smiled and said, "Then shall we go and meet him? Since you didn't force your way in and even had the patience to drink tea with your grandfather, you're obviously not an unreasonable person."

Han Xingyu nodded. He thought so too, and felt that meeting face-to-face and having everything laid out before them was the best course of action.

The time it takes to drink a cup of tea...

Han Xingyu led Ruoxue to the entrance of the courtyard where the three members of the Fu family were being entertained. Ruoxue suddenly stepped forward and took Han Xingyu's arm.

Han Xingyu stiffened and looked at her in confusion.

Ruoxue rolled her eyes at him, exasperated, and said angrily, "What? You don't like being held by the arm? Then I'll let go!"

"No!" Han Xingyu grabbed her hand, preventing her from pulling it back.

Ruoxue slightly curved the corners of her lips, leaned close to his ear, and said in a suggestive voice, "You have to work hard to gain their approval!"

Although she had no family in the past world and doesn't know whether her family in this world is good or bad, she deeply hopes to receive their blessings and be liked by them.

"Have you completely accepted me?" Han Xingyu looked intently into her eyes, her voice soft and pleasant.

Ruoxue seemed captivated by his pleasant voice, momentarily lost in thought. After a moment, she pursed her lips and nodded, appearing somewhat reluctant, "Fine!"

"What do you mean by 'it's settled'? It's either yes or no!" Han Xingyu corrected the answer to the question very seriously, as if there were only two answers, and he wouldn't accept anything else.

Ruoxue angrily twisted his arm, but he seemed oblivious, still staring intently into Ruoxue's eyes, repeatedly asking, "Yes, or no?"

Ruoxue pouted and said awkwardly, "You're so stubborn! Yeah, yeah!"

Han Xingyu was overjoyed. He suppressed the urge to pull her into his arms and kiss her passionately, and instead took her hand that was holding his, saying, "I will definitely make them accept me! I will absolutely not elope with you!"

"Uh? Elopement?" Ruoxue thought for a moment. The current situation did seem to be as if she had been kidnapped by him, the two of them had eloped, and now the woman's family had come looking for her. The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became. Ruoxue's lips twitched violently and didn't return to their original position for a long time, as if she had a cramp. It wasn't until she pushed open the door that she managed to change that twitching into a somewhat fake smile, but those who didn't know her well wouldn't notice the fakeness.

Inside the room, Han Mengxiao sat in the main seat, with three people sitting to her left—three middle-aged men from the Fu family.

"Miss Ruoxue, these three are your mother's three brothers." Han Mengxiao introduced other people's relatives instead. Although he was a little embarrassed, he knew from his previous conversation with the three that Ruoxue did not know them, so as an elder, he should introduce them.

"Greetings, three uncles. It's a pleasure to meet you all. Please take good care of me." Ruoxue politely cupped her hands in greeting.

The three members of the Fu family were momentarily stunned. The man sitting closest to Han Mengxiao was the first to recover, laughing loudly, "You must be Ruoxue! You look just like Mengyao!"

Another person nodded in agreement, saying, "His nose isn't as high as Mengyao's, but it suits her face perfectly!"

Han Mengxiao said with a wry smile, "The three of you should introduce yourselves. After all, Miss Ruoxue doesn't recognize you. She doesn't even know which uncle to call her."

"Brother Han is right!" A middle-aged man with long, flowing hair laughed heartily. "I'm the boss, Fu Rongfeng."

Another serious-looking, middle-aged man with his hair tied up high and dressed formally said in a low voice, "I am the second in line, Fu Rongyun."

The middle-aged man, who had a very auspicious appearance, said with a smile, "I am your uncle, Fu Rongchun."

"Big Uncle, Second Uncle, Little Uncle, hello." Ruoxue greeted them one by one, and even did a standard girl's etiquette. She had recently learned this from Han Xingyu's aunt, Han Rou. She thought she would never need it, but now it was very useful. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "This is what it means to follow local customs!"

"That's great!" Fu Rongchun said with a smile.

"Mm." Fu Rongyun nodded stiffly.

Fu Rongfeng got straight to the point, saying, "You should know your mother isn't dead, right?"

Ruoxue secretly praised him, "Direct enough! Free-spirited enough! This uncle is not bad!"

"I heard it from my father, but I don't know the specifics," Ruoxue said politely.

Fu Rongfeng narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Don't you want to know?"

"If I knew, my uncle would definitely tell me; if I didn't know, you wouldn't tell me even if I asked," Ruoxue said with a faint smile.

A hint of admiration flashed in Fu Rongfeng's eyes as he turned his gaze to the man who had been clinging to Ruoxue since she entered, and asked, "And who is this?"

Han Mengxiao smiled and said, "This is my grandson."

"Not bad!" Fu Rongchun commented with a smile.

"Hmm." Fu Rongyun nodded stiffly as always.

Fu Rongfeng remained direct, asking, "Are the two children engaged?"

"Yes!" Ruoxue nodded and said, "I will marry no one but him! It's already arranged. We'll wait for his sister to come out of seclusion and officiate the wedding for us."

Han Xingyu blinked, a warm feeling spreading through her heart.

Ruoxue smiled sweetly at him. Sometimes, it was fun to tease this guy, and other times, she really wanted to give him a treat and see how happy he was. Just like now, this treat should be big enough!

"They're a perfect match," Fu Rongchun said with a smile.

"Hmm." Fu Rongyun kept her head down, still expressionless.

Fu Rongfeng remained straightforward, saying, "Great! A perfect match! A grand wedding is a must, a magnificent marriage! Once the wedding date is decided, tell your eldest uncle, and I'll have everyone make proper preparations. Then you can return to the family to meet your mother, and then you'll be married out of the Fu family!"

Ruoxue was speechless and turned to look at Han Xingyu. Han Xingyu also had a very surprised expression and turned to look at Ruoxue. The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Han Xingyu transmitted her voice, "Is it that simple? They're satisfied with me and are going to marry you off to me? I don't think I said a single word!"

Ruoxue had already learned how to transmit her voice, and at this moment she transmitted, "I also find it strange. My father seems to be very afraid of the Fu family, and it seems like it was very difficult for him to marry my mother! Later, my mother was even forced to be taken away! Why is it so easy for him to marry me now?"

"You two little guys, is it fun to transmit your voice?" Suddenly a voice entered Han Xingyu and Ruoxue's minds.

The voice was unmistakable—it was Fu Rongfeng!

Han Xingyu and Ruoxue exchanged a glance, somewhat unsure just how strong their opponent was, though they could hear each other's voice transmission!

Fu Rongfeng said, "Speak frankly."

Han Mengxiao looked at Fu Rongfeng in confusion, not understanding why he had suddenly uttered those four words.

Fu Rongfeng did not explain, but looked at Ruoxue and Han Xingyu.

Han Xingyu spoke frankly, "I haven't said a word since I entered the room. Are you really comfortable with this and letting her marry me?"

"They match perfectly!" Fu Rongchun said with a smile, glancing at Han Xingyu before praising, "Very good."

"Just by looking at me, you think I'm pretty good? A good match for her?" Han Xingyu was a little annoyed. This smiling guy, has he never heard the saying: "A smiling face is never a good thing!"

Fu Rongchun remained smiling, but this time he became more talkative: "You possess the roots of divinity, and are even a being of both god and demon, transcending the Three Realms! Both of your cultivation roots are divine roots, seemingly having absorbed the cultivation of the Ancient Demon God and evenly distributed it between your two divine roots. Calculated, you should be able to reach the peak of the God King realm in a few days. If you refine some good pills, you might directly become an Ancient God and an Ancient Demon God. Your life force is only in your early twenties; to achieve such a feat is quite remarkable."

Han Xingyu's mouth is round, and now it could probably fit several dumplings.

After a long while, he finally recovered from his astonishment, rested his chin on his hand, and asked incredulously, "How did you know?"

Fu Rongchun still smiled, this time his smile was even more amiable: "I know, Second Brother knows, Eldest Brother knows. We all knew as soon as you came in, we knew at a glance."

"Huh?" Han Xingyu seemed to have a hard time recovering from the shock, and after stammering for a while, she didn't say anything more.

Ruoxue pinched him hard, and he finally snapped out of his daze, smiling wryly as he remarked, "Xue'er, your family is just too powerful!"

Ruoxue's lips twitched, and she rolled her eyes. Did you even need to tell me that? Even an idiot could see it!

Ruoxue hesitated for a moment before asking, "Because he's good, you agreed to let me marry him? Is my father really that bad? But even if he is, my mother is already in love with him. Why are you being so cruel? Breaking up a loving couple is not a good thing."

This time, it was Fu Rongfeng who spoke up, and he still spoke in his straightforward tone: "Because your father was not qualified to marry your mother, but he insisted on doing so, that's why you're a madman and an ugly monster."

"That's... pretty direct!" Ruoxue was a little embarrassed and said with a wry smile, "I'm not like that now."

Fu Rongfeng immediately stated bluntly: "Because you are not you."

"You..." Ruoxue pouted. What didn't these three know? They could tell Xingyu's background with just one look. It seemed that even she, the one who borrowed this body, couldn't escape their sharp eyes! It was chilling. Who knew, after all this time, these three might be descendants of Sun Wukong?

Seeing Ruoxue speechless after her elder brother's words, Fu Rongchun laughed even harder, saying with a chuckle, "Actually, you are the real member of the Fu family now!"

"What's going on?" Ruoxue had an urge to bang her head against a wall and travel back in time.

Fu Rongchun chuckled, "Everyone in the Fu family, just like you, time-traveled, understand?"

Ruoxue was sweating profusely, and really didn't know what to say. This world is too terrible. When did time travel become a common thing? It's become so common that a time travel family has formed!

Fu Rongyun, who had only nodded and said "hmm" the whole time, said seriously, "The third rule of the Fu family is that no member of the family may marry a creature from the Three Realms. If this is violated, the spouse will not live more than three years and the child will be born with a disability."

"Vicious! Whoever created this family rule is truly ruthless!" Ruoxue smiled bitterly. "Those who can't marry within the Three Realms are truly tragic!"

Fu Rongfeng once again spoke bluntly: "Transmigrators don't belong to the Three Realms, so intermarriage is allowed within the Fu family, and the conditions aren't too harsh. The one you've found is also a being beyond the Three Realms, a being of both god and demonic nature, so you can marry him. As for why we forcibly took your mother away many years ago, it was because of family rules, but later, she voluntarily stayed in the family. If the creature within the Three Realms your mother chose doesn't want your father to die before three years, your mother must return to the family's Hall of Facing the Wall and kneel in worship. The more days she kneels, the more days your father will live, which is why your father is still alive."

Ruoxue asked in astonishment, "Uh, does that mean if my mother stops kneeling one day, my father will kick the bucket immediately?"

Fu Rongchun chuckled and said, "This little girl is really clever; she gets the idea!"

Ruoxue remained silent once again.

Han Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Luckily, I am both a god and a demon, otherwise marrying you would have been really difficult!"

Ruoxue's lips twitched; she was utterly speechless.

……

The Blood King sat by the window, and the Tibetan Crow flew back from outside.

The Blood King stroked the feathers of the Tibetan Crow and asked, "What news?"

Zangwu seemed somewhat troubled, stammering for a while before finally saying hesitantly, "It's not good. Does Master still want to hear it?"

"Speak," the Blood King said, frowning slightly.

Zangwu whispered, "The Fu family sent their eldest, second, and youngest sons to the mountain. They didn't force their way in, but sat down to drink tea. Later, Ruoxue and that boy went to see them together. The three Fu family members not only didn't drive the boy away, but seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation. It was too far away for me to get close, so I didn't know what they were talking about. Later, I heard the Han family members talking about this matter. When I got closer to listen, I learned that the three Fu family members were extremely satisfied with that boy and agreed to marry Ruoxue to him!"

"What?!" The Blood King's pupils contracted sharply, his gaze fixed fiercely on the night sky as he growled, "What abilities does that brat possess to satisfy the Fu family?!"

"I don't know." Zangwu shook his head, somewhat helplessly.

"Don't know?" The Blood King's hand, which had been stroking the Tibetan crow's feathers, suddenly tightened. He said in a low voice, "You know nothing? What use are you to me? Now that the Fu family isn't making a move and is even protecting them, I can no longer do anything to them!"

"Master, spare me! Master, spare me!" Zangwu hurriedly begged for mercy, "There is a way, but it's very dangerous! However, if successful, it can turn the tide!"

"Oh?" The Blood King loosened his grip and then gently supported her again.

Zangwu trembled as he said, "The Mad Demon Ancient God has disappeared, and the Death Demon Ancient God has disbanded his forces and also disappeared. The Demon God Realm, which was originally a tripartite division, is now entirely dominated by the Black Demon Ancient God."

"That old bastard got a good deal." The Blood King's voice carried a hint of disdain.

Zangwu asked cautiously, "How is Master's bloodthirsty technique progressing?"

"So-so," the Blood King replied dismissively.

Zangwu remained cautious: "Perhaps it's the blood of the ancient demon god?"

The Blood King narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly understanding Zang Wu's meaning, and a cold smile appeared on his face as he said, "You want me to kill my father with my own hands?"

Zangwu trembled all over, and cried out in fear, "Master... spare my life..."

The Blood King wasn't angry. Instead, he patted Cangwu's head and praised, "That's a good idea!"

"Master..." Zangwu felt a chill run down his spine.

"That old thing has lived even longer. Since he gave birth to me, he must be responsible for me. Now that I need him, he should serve me and offer his flesh and blood for me to eat! Once I cultivate my Bloodlust Technique to its highest level, I will devour his flesh and blood. I believe that soon I will become the Demon God Emperor! The entire Demon God Realm will be mine! The Heavenly God Realm has never been a match for the Demon God Realm. Even the ancient gods are pitifully few. I will surely dominate the entire God Realm!" The Blood King narrowed his dangerous eyes, sneered, and his voice was filled with bloodlust and cruelty, with a hint of intense madness and longing.

The next day...

Everyone in the mountains had gathered in front of Han Wuxie's courtyard, eagerly awaiting the opening of the door that had remained closed for so long.

Ruoxue tugged at Han Xingyu's sleeve and whispered, "Do you think your sister Wuxie will like me?"

"If I can like you, then of course Sister Wuxie will like you too! Don't worry!" Han Xingyu reassured her by squeezing her hand.

Seeing Ruoxue's nervous expression, Fengwu couldn't help but feel nervous herself, and tightened her grip on Han Tianci's hand.

Han Tianci grabbed her hand and chuckled, "Didn't you meet your sister before? Why are you still acting like Ruoxue?"

Feng Wu rolled her eyes at him sullenly and said helplessly, "I have seen her, but that was many years ago! And..." Feng Wu lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I was so cold to you back then, maybe she already thought I was annoying."

Han Tianci reached out and patted her back, encouraging her, "Have courage! My sister knows about our past life connection and our love in this life! She once said that you are very beautiful, with an exterior like an iceberg, but who doesn't know that ice comes from water? Whoever has the ability to melt this ice will surely have a gentle and beautiful wife!"

"Did she really say that?" Feng Wu looked at him nervously.

Han Tianci smiled gently, reached out and stroked her face, his voice soft as he said, "Would I lie to you? Don't be nervous."

Feng Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief and obediently nodded.

Seeing the affectionate couple next to her, Ruoxue glanced at Han Xingyu and said somewhat dejectedly, "He's better at comforting people than you are."

Han Xingyu looked at Ruoxue with a mournful expression and said with distress, "He's a scheming man, two-faced. Don't be fooled by his gentle appearance; he's a dark soul! Someone as straightforward as me is the best match for you! Wasn't my comforting words very effective? Look at you now, you're not nervous at all."

Ruoxue nodded reluctantly and said, "You are indeed more pleasing to the eye than him."

Han Xingyu sighed deeply. It's really difficult to please someone from another world!

Han Tianci and Feng Wu heard their words clearly, but they weren't annoyed at all. Instead, they laughed, as if they had just watched a good show. They knew, of course, that Ruoxue was deliberately teasing Xingyu. It was truly rare to see the little devil, who never bowed her head, fawning over someone like this!

Hua Qianye paid no attention to what was happening outside, his eyes fixed on the closed door, hoping she would come out soon.

Since being taken back to the mountain by Hua Qianye, Xuan Zimo has rarely left his room. While Han Wuxie was in seclusion cultivating, the Root of God would constantly impart a lot of new knowledge to him, so he didn't have time to go out. Today was the first time he had a good look at Han Yuyuan, Han Yuyan, and Han Zhufeng, who were also beings from the Root of God.

Han Yuyuan stared at Xuan Ziming curiously for a while. When he finally looked over, she stepped forward and poked his cheek, then covered her mouth and laughed, "Your face is indeed more tender than Han Zhufeng's! From now on, I'll call you 'Tender Tofu'!"

Xuan Ziming was taken aback, his gaze darkening slightly. He took a step back, distancing himself from Han Yuyuan, and muttered under his breath, "Flirtatious!"

"You insulted me!" Han Yuyuan said angrily.

Han Zhufeng also glared angrily at Xuan Zimo at the same time.

Han Yuyan covered her face, wanting to say that she didn't know these two people, but said nothing.

Xuan Ziming glanced at Han Yuyuan and Han Zhufeng with disdain and said indifferently, "Stay away from me."

Feeling rejected, Han Yuyuan became even angrier, pointing at Xuan Ziming's nose and growling, "What do you mean?!"

"I don't like being near crazy women and idiots," Xuan Ziming said coldly.

Ruoxue chuckled to herself, "I never expected Xuan Zimo to have such a sharp tongue!"

Han Xingyu's lips twitched as she said, "This kid is on par with Hua Qianye!"

Feng Wu said with amusement, "Yu Yuan is quite angry."

Han Tianci shook his head and said, "Zhu Feng is probably facing a formidable opponent."

Amidst the commotion, a soft creak was heard.

Hua Qianye's eyes lit up, and she hurried to greet him.

Dressed in pure white, she exuded an ethereal aura, possessing an elegant and noble demeanor. Her eyes held a captivating allure, and her smile was alluring and seductive. The person who haunted my dreams had finally emerged from seclusion!

Han Wuxie stretched, appearing somewhat languid, her lips always slightly upturned. After a long silence, her voice, though somewhat hoarse, was like a fine vintage wine, subtly intoxicating: "I am already an ancient god." As soon as she finished speaking, a powerful aura emanated from her body, representing her power.

Hua Qianye froze, her face instantly falling. She said with a childish sullenness, "Didn't you say that becoming a God King would be enough? Now you're stronger than me! It makes me, as a man, lose face!"

Upon hearing this, Han Wuxie's lonely smile became even more enchanting as he raised an eyebrow and said, "Then go into seclusion and become an ancient god."

"No! You'll be in seclusion for many years, I don't want to be separated from you again!" Hua Qianye shook her head vigorously.

Everyone was speechless when they saw the usually invincible and charismatic Hua Qianye acting so cute in front of Han Wuxie.

Han Wuxie rolled her eyes at him and ignored him. Instead, she greeted the elders and, seeing that her two younger brothers had companions, she went up to chat with her two future sisters-in-law. She liked Ruoxue, whom she had just met, very much. Such a genuine woman was indeed a good match for Xingyu.

After everyone left, only Han Wuxie and Hua Qianye remained in the courtyard. In fact, everyone had left on purpose to give the two of them a chance to be alone.

Hua Qianye kept pouting, looking at Han Wuxie with great resentment. Han Wuxie talked to everyone else, but ignored her.

"You're not a child, why are you pretending to be cute? It's annoying!" Han Wuxie glanced at him coldly, sat down to the side, and started drinking tea by himself.

"Wu Xie, what do you mean!" Hua Qianye finally got a little angry. This little girl went too far. She had only been in seclusion for a few days, so why did she act like she didn't recognize him when she came out!

"It doesn't mean anything, I just don't like the look of you," Han Wuxie said coldly.

"You..." Hua Qianye hesitated for a long time, realizing that he couldn't win against her in words, so he reached out to hug her and ask her what she meant!

Han Wuxie's figure flashed, easily dodging the attack. His voice was calm as he said, "Now you are a God-King, but I am an Ancient God. It's impossible for me to be unable to escape your forceful embrace like before!"

"Han Wuxie!" Hua Qianye gritted her teeth and said, "You turned your back on me as soon as you came out of seclusion! Do you have any conscience? I waited so long and suffered so much. Before you went into seclusion, you promised me that you would marry me after you came out. How could you treat me like this now!" Hua Qianye sounded like a wronged wife. Her voice grew softer and softer, and she gradually lowered her head, looking very pitiful.

A hint of a smile flashed in Han Wuxie's eyes, but he still kept a straight face and said coldly, "Before I went into seclusion, you were far stronger than me. You always forced yourself on me and kissed me. If I hadn't agreed to marry you after I came out of seclusion, would you have let me go into seclusion? Anyway, I'm stronger than you now, so I can do whatever I want, and it's none of your business!"

"You're crossing the river and then burning the bridge!" Hua Qianye said angrily. He was filled with regret. If he had known that she had only emerged from seclusion after breaking through to the Ancient God realm, he would never have been so soft-hearted as to let her go into seclusion!

"That was satisfying to demolish!" Han Wuxie sipped his tea and said with a wicked smile.

"You!" Hua Qianye lowered her head and stopped talking.

Han Wuxie looked at him with amusement, then suddenly frowned and looked towards the courtyard gate. At that moment, a familiar person from his memory was walking towards them.

"Yu Xuan?" Han Wuxie was taken aback.

Just like in Wanli Miao's memory, Yu Xuan wore a gentle smile. In recent days, Han Xingyu had refined a divine pill for him, which helped him restore his cultivation.

"I am deeply gratified that my cousin still remembers me," Yu Xuan said politely.

Such politeness, yet it created a sense of unfamiliarity. She addressed him as "cousin," but Han Wuxie knew that this single word had unknowingly created a distance between them.

Han Wuxie sighed softly, but quickly came to terms with it. Wanlimiao was already dead. The other woman called him her cousin only to let him know that their relationship was just that of cousins, nothing more, just family.

"How have you been these years?" Han Wuxie was very curious about what kind of life Yu Xuan had led after Wanli Miao's death.

"It's alright." He simply said two words casually.

Han Wuxie knew he must be in a bad mood, but he didn't want to bring it up, and he couldn't force him to recall unpleasant memories, so he changed the subject, asking, "What are your plans for the future, cousin?"

Yu Xuan looked at Han Wuxie meaningfully for a long time, and when she avoided his gaze, he slowly said, "After attending your wedding, I will leave. I have never been to the Immortal Realm or the Mortal Realm before. I want to roam freely throughout the Three Realms and have a good time traveling around."

"Marriage?" Han Wuxie's gaze swept coldly over Hua Qianye, who pouted, looking sullen.

"Hua Qianye said that you will marry him soon after you come out of seclusion," Yu Xuan said honestly.

Hua Qianye rolled her eyes at Yu Xuan, annoyed. Didn't she see that this little girl was being lukewarm towards her? This guy, he really knows how to bring up the most awkward things!

Han Wuxie smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I understand."

Yu Xuan was taken aback, not expecting Han Wuxie to answer like that. This meant that he had tacitly agreed with what Hua Qianye said, that he would marry Hua Qianye soon after leaving seclusion.

Hua Qianye was also taken aback. After all, the little girl had just shown extreme aversion to him and seemed unwilling to marry him at all. Now, hearing the little girl's answer, he immediately beamed with joy.

Seeing Hua Qianye's joyful appearance, Yu Xuan's lips trembled slightly, his smile appearing somewhat bitter. He still congratulated her, saying, "Then I will await the wedding invitation."

After Yu Xuan left, Hua Qianye clung to him like a leech, "Wu Xie, what you just said, is it true? You really will marry me soon?"

"It's fake!" Han Wuxie said casually.

Hua Qianye was utterly defeated. Her cultivation was inferior to hers, yet she treated her like this—it was too arrogant!

Instantly, the man's anger surged to his head. Ignoring whether his cultivation level was lower than hers, he used all his strength to grab her, pull her tightly into his arms, and slap her buttocks hard. He buried his chin in her neck and said in a muffled voice, "I know you were angry when I forcibly kissed you before, but you didn't have to punish me like this. I've been waiting so long, hoping for you to come out of seclusion every day."

Han Wuxie never expected that he would be forcibly hugged by him again. He had just hugged him and he hadn't even dodged away. Did this man think he was a child? He even spanked his bottom!

Just as Han Wuxie was about to push him away forcefully, his muffled voice rang out again, filled with endless longing: "Wuxie, I miss you so much. Please don't go into seclusion again. Waiting for you, even for just one day, feels like waiting for millions of years."

Han Wuxie withdrew her hand that was about to push him away, pursed her lips, and remained silent.

Hua Qianye looked up, so close to her face, which was so charming. He asked in a wronged tone, "What happened? Why are you distancing yourself from me as soon as you come out of seclusion?"

Han Wuxie sighed, knowing that nothing could be hidden from him. He met Han Wuxie's deep blue eyes and said softly, "Becoming an ancient god, I have gained a lot of insights from the root of the god."

"What is it?" Hua Qianye asked.

Han Wuxie smiled bitterly, "If I don't become the controller of the Primordial Chaos, the Root of God will gradually devour me. I won't be able to control the powerful Root of God, and I will be devoured by it. Do you know what your Divine Ring was in the past?"

Hua Qianye tightened her grip on Han Wuxie's hand, but did not speak.

"It seems you know this." Han Wuxie said with a faint smile, "Among your Xuan family ancestors, one person's divine root mutated, but he ultimately could not become the controller of the primordial chaos. Instead, he was devoured by the divine root, which transformed into a divine ring and became a separate entity."

Hana Chiba lowered her eyes.

Han Wuxie sighed and said, "I don't know if I can become a controller of the Primordial Chaos. If I can't even control my own future, how can I give you our future? If I marry you, I might be too happy to go into seclusion and not cultivate properly. In that case, sooner or later I will be devoured by the Root of God and leave you. I can't imagine what will happen to you if I leave you. At that time, I won't even have any trace left, and I won't be able to reincarnate."

Hua Qianye remained silent, simply holding her tightly.

Han Wuxie said helplessly, "I will be going into seclusion again soon."

Hua Qianye finally spoke, her voice low and hoarse: "Do you remember, back in the mortal realm, I wanted to distance myself from you, and I didn't want to admit that I had fallen in love with you?"

Han Wuxie's body stiffened. How could he forget that back then, he was afraid of disappearing, so he dared not face the fact that he had fallen in love with him. It was only after he took the initiative to confess that he bravely faced his heart.

"Is there any difference between me back then and you now?" Hua Qianye said meaningfully.

Han Wuxie remained silent for a long time. No matter how troubling things were, he always had a way of resolving everything with just a single sentence. Yes, was there any difference between him then and now? Back then, didn't he bravely face things, forget about disappearing or not, and only cherish the present? Why should he worry so much now?

"Wu Xie, marry me." He nuzzled Han Wu Xie's neck with his chin, his voice slightly tipsy. "After you marry me, we'll go into seclusion together and emerge together. I believe you can become the controller of the Primordial Chaos."

Han Wuxie hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Then how about I marry you after I become the controller of Hongmeng?"

"We have to wait!" Hua Qianye was fed up. He lowered his head and suddenly sealed her lips with his, preventing her from saying anything he didn't want to hear.

The lingering kiss seemed to completely draw the air away from him. Han Wuxie felt a surge of frustration. He had thought that since his cultivation was stronger than Han Wuxie's, Han Wuxie wouldn't be able to take advantage of him, but he hadn't expected... the result was still the same!

Hua Qianye narrowed his phoenix eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips. His nimble tongue pried open her pearly teeth and probed into her mouth, conquering and plunging in, teasing her tongue, swallowing and sucking without the slightest hesitation, his movements extremely skilled.

Han Wuxie resignedly closed his eyes. Fine, even with his high cultivation, he couldn't bring himself to truly harm this man; this guy had seen through his soft heart! Oh well, since the kiss didn't feel too bad, he'd just have to endure it for now!

He gently pecked Han Wuxie's lips, reluctantly letting go, his face unusually flushed, as if he were suppressing something.

"No more delays! I've been waiting since you were five! Let's get married first, and we can talk about everything else later!"

After uttering these domineering words, Hua Qianye left somewhat disheveled. Once back in her room, she took a cold shower to suppress the urge to "devour" Han Wuxie alive.

Han Wuxie's divine sense covered the entire mountain and discovered that he had taken a bath as soon as he got back, which made him chuckle to himself.

On second thought, he really was quite pitiful; it seemed he had indeed been waiting for a very long time.

Fine, let's grant his wish. If he can become the controller of the Primordial Chaos, a few more days of marriage won't make a difference. If he can't become the controller of the Primordial Chaos, it's better to marry him first, so that when he dies, he won't have any regrets.

Long before Han Wuxie emerged from seclusion, Hua Qianye had already prepared everything for the wedding. Clearly, he lacked nothing except a bride.

Having obtained Han Wuxie's consent, Hua Qianye beamed with joy. Fearing that Han Wuxie might change her mind, she decided to strike while the iron was hot the next day, giving her no time to regret it.

Although the night is long and many things may happen, we can only endure this night and wait for the next day. But the night is so long, it's really... frustrating!

A gentle night breeze blew, and Han Wuxie, resting his chin on his hand, looked somewhat regretful.

Hua Qianye had only intended to steal a glance at her, and once she was asleep, he would go to sleep himself. However, seeing her like this, he said somewhat dejectedly, "Regretting it?"

Han Wuxie had already noticed his arrival, and said with a slight smirk, "A little."

"No regrets!" Hua Qianye hugged her from behind and said domineeringly, "After learning that you are going to marry me today, Xingyu and Tianci went to inform the beasts who are in seclusion. They should come to have a drink at the wedding tomorrow."

Han Wuxie sighed, feeling a headache coming on when he thought of them, and said softly, "It's been a long time since I've seen them."

"I heard from Xingyu that with the help of the divine pills, the Deer King, Zhu Fengmo, Golden Eagle, and Ice will soon break through to the Xuan-level divine beast realm." Hua Qianye raised an eyebrow slightly and smiled, "However, that will be too late. By the time they reach adulthood, you'll already be mine!"

Han Wuxie's lips twitched slightly.

"Anyway, you've already promised me that you'll be my bride tomorrow, and I won't let you regret it!" He tightened his embrace around Han Wuxie and said, "I'll stay here and watch over you until you get into the bridal sedan chair tomorrow."

"A bridal sedan chair?" Han Wuxie rolled his eyes. "It's just a few steps away, why bother with a sedan chair? Too much trouble!"

"Everything that needs to be prepared must be done! Even a few steps can't let the bride step in the mud!" Hua Qianye said seriously, clearly taking this wedding very seriously.

Han Wuxie felt a warmth in his heart, but he awkwardly said, "It's too much trouble!"

"It doesn't matter how tired I am for you." Hua Qianye bent down, picked her up in his arms, and gently placed her on the bed. "Rest now, and don't think about anything else."

Hua Qianye sat by the bedside, quietly watching over her.

Han Wuxie chuckled, "You've decided to stay here and guard this place? Are you really afraid I'll run away?"

"I'm afraid, the closer it gets to the end, the more afraid I am!" Hua Qianye answered without any hesitation.

Han Wuxie said helplessly, "The bride and groom cannot meet before the wedding."

"It's not the mortal realm, I'll stay here and guard it!" Hua Qianye seemed a little annoyed.

Han Wuxie gave a wicked smile and said no more. Actually, he didn't regret it at all, he was just a little scared. He had heard that the wedding night would be very painful, so he was a little afraid.

Early the next morning.

When Han Wuxie woke up, Hua Qianye had already left, and his mother, Ruoxue, and Fengwu were smiling at him.

Ever since meeting Han Wuxie, Ruoxue had followed Han Xingyu's example and called her "Sister Wuxie." She also liked Han Wuxie very much; it was a kind of fate that made her naturally fond of him. Ruoxue playfully said, "Sister Wuxie, you can't sleep in today!"

Han Rou smiled and said, "I didn't expect that I would be marrying you off so soon. I'm really reluctant to part with you."

Feng Wu smiled and said, "Auntie, Sister Wu Xie will still live in this mountain after marrying Hua Qianye. You are not marrying off your daughter, but your son-in-law moving in."

Han Rou surprisingly nodded in agreement: "That's right, it's Hua Qianye who's marrying into the family. If he hadn't, I really wouldn't have been willing to marry Wu Xie to him."

Han Wuxie was taken aback and before she could react, she was lifted up by the three women. They moved like horses, Ruoxue did her makeup, Fengwu did her hair, and Hanrou dressed her in her wedding dress.

In no time, the woman in red became stunningly beautiful.

"Beautiful!" Han Rou looked at her precious daughter with delight.

"So beautiful!" Feng Wu looked at Han Wuxie with envy and exclaimed.

"So beautiful!" Ruoxue gave a thumbs up and exclaimed in admiration.

Han Wuxie blushed slightly from the compliments from the three people. She walked to the mirror and was stunned. She had never worn such bright clothes or put on makeup before. She didn't expect that red would suit her so well.

"If the groom saw this, he'd probably turn into a wolf immediately!" Ruoxue said, covering her mouth with a laugh.

Feng Wu chuckled to herself, "The wedding night is truly enviable."

Han Wuxie gave Ruoxue and Fengwu a resentful look and muttered, "After I get married, it will be the two of you! I believe Xingyu and Tianci will cherish their wedding night, the day the full moon turns to wolves!"

"What did you say!" Feng Wu, who was shy, quickly lowered her head, her face flushed.

Ruoxue was shameless, like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water. Besides, it was the truth anyway. She was going to marry Han Xingyu sooner or later, so there was nothing to be ashamed of. She raised an eyebrow and smiled, "So, Sister Wuxie, have a good experience of your wedding night and give us some advice. I heard..." She lowered her voice and said, "The first time will hurt a lot! Once you experience it, tell us if it's true."

Han Rou shook her head with amusement when she heard the three girls talking about this.

Joyful music drifted from outside the door; the bridal sedan chair had arrived.

Han Rou personally covered her daughter's head with a red veil and led her out.

Sitting in the bridal sedan chair, Han Wuxie's mind was filled with Ruoxue's extremely low voice: "The first time will hurt a lot!"

The bridal sedan chair swayed and rocked, and no one knew how much time had passed. In fact, it was only a very short time, but the person inside the sedan chair felt that it was longer than the days of seclusion.

Her red veil covered her face, preventing her from seeing outside. Suddenly, a hand took hers, and the touch was so gentle that she recognized him.

What does he look like right now? Is he also dressed in red?

I've seen Xingyu in red, and he looks great, but I've never seen Hua Qianye in red. In my opinion, both Xingyu and Hua Qianye are extraordinary men, so he should look great in red too, right?

He held my hand, each step so steady, and the anxiety in my heart gradually subsided.

Upon entering the lobby, Han Wuxie could sense that Zhu Fengmo and the others were watching her. Because of the contract, she could feel their inner struggles. However, she did not regret it. No matter what happened to them after they grew up and realized whether their feelings for her were love, the one she loved was only Hua Qianye. Love was perhaps so cruel; the heart was inherently small.

Bowing to Heaven and Earth...

Second bow to the parents...

Husband and wife bow to each other...

Han Wuxie couldn't see outside; all he could see was red. But because he was holding his hand, everything went smoothly and quickly.

Hua Qianye wanted to lead Han Wuxie back to the room, but was stopped by Yu Xuan, Zhu Fengmo, Xiao Bai, Lu Wang, Bing, Jin Ying and others.

"What? Boss has won the heart of a beauty, and you won't even have a drink with us?" Xiao Bai raised an eyebrow, smiling brightly, but his eyes held a hint of sourness.

"Exactly!" Golden Eagle sneered, "The groom's trying to slip away like this? That's so unfair!"

Zhu Fengmo narrowed her wicked and venomous eyes and laughed, "If you don't want to drink, we can certainly go and make a ruckus in the bridal chamber!"

The Deer King smiled gently and said, "I still think it's better to start the wedding night pranks directly."

She said coldly, "Even if we're going to have some fun in the bridal chamber, the groom has to have a few drinks with us first. That's the rule."

Yu Xuan chuckled and said, "Hua Qianye, I really didn't expect that you have so many 'friends' besides me!" The deeper meaning of these friends was nothing more than rivals in love.

Ruoxue and Fengwu stepped forward, took Han Wuxie's hand, and said, "We can take care of Sister Wuxie. We will take her to the bridal chamber."

Hua Qianye was still a little worried. To be honest, he didn't want to drink with these guys at all; he only wanted to drink with Wu Xie!

Han Xingyu and Han Tianci stepped forward, and Hua Qianye smiled wryly. It seemed that these two were also here to cause trouble.

To Hua Qianye's surprise, Han Xingyu transmitted his voice, saying, "You're my brother-in-law now, so naturally I'll help my own people!"

Han Tianci transmitted his voice, saying, "Since he is my brother-in-law, I will naturally help him out of this predicament."

Upon hearing their telepathic communication, Hua Qianye smiled wryly. In truth, he had long known that these two genuinely considered him his brother-in-law.

Han Xingyu and Han Tianci stopped Xiaobai and the others. Han Xingyu laughed and said, "Sister Wuxie doesn't like a groom who smells of alcohol. If you want to drink, I'll drink with you!"

Han Tianci raised an eyebrow and looked at Hua Qianye, saying, "Brother-in-law, aren't you going to the bridal chamber? Do you intend to drink here until you're completely drunk?"

Hua Qianye hurriedly made his escape, heading in the direction Han Wuxie had left.

Seeing Hua Qianye leave, Xiao Bai and the others looked at the two people blocking their way. In the end, they could only drink by themselves. At this moment, everyone here really needed wine; a cup of wine could relieve a thousand sorrows.

……

The red candles flickered in the room. Ruoxue and Fengwu escorted Han Wuxie into the bridal chamber and then left. They knew that the groom could return at any time, and staying here might ruin the good thing, so they wisely left.

As soon as Ruoxue and Fengwu left, Hua Qianye rushed in.

"You...so fast..." Han Wuxie's voice was a little hoarse.

Hua Qianye slowly stepped forward, gently lifted the red veil, and his eyes were momentarily dazed. She was so beautiful today that he couldn't bear to blink.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Han Wuxie lowered his head and whispered, "I thought they would make things difficult for you and get you drunk."

Hua Qianye chuckled softly, her voice slightly tipsy, and said, "Are you worried about me?"

Han Wuxie couldn't help but feel nervous, imagining what might happen next.

"Shouldn't I be worried?" She looked up at him, her eyes fixed on him. Today, he was dressed in red, which made him look very handsome and devilish.

Hua Qianye sat down beside her, took her hand, and smiled, "Of course, my wife should care about me."

Han Wuxie awkwardly tried to withdraw her hand, but he was already getting closer and closer. She couldn't help but remember Ruoxue's words, and fearfully withdrew her hand, stood up, walked to the table, poured herself some wine, and said, "We should drink the nuptial wine, shouldn't we?"

Hua Qianye gazed at her slightly flushed face, a ripple of emotion flickering in his eyes, and nodded gently with a smile, "Yes."

Han Wuxie poured two cups of wine, handed one to him, and was about to drink his own when he said, "That's not how you drink a nuptial cup."

"Hmm?" Han Wuxie asked, somewhat puzzled.

Hua Qianye suddenly took her hand, hooked it slightly, and their arms intertwined. He raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Drink like this."

He couldn't help but move closer to him; the man smelled wonderful. Han Wuxie's face turned even redder, and he suddenly gulped down a glass of wine, as if to sober up and embolden himself.

"After drinking the nuptial wine, do you know what we should do?" Hua Qianye narrowed his beautiful phoenix eyes and stared intently into hers.

Han Wuxie staggered as she put the wine glass back on the table. She wanted to sit down at the table, but sitting next to her on the bed made her very uncomfortable. Before she could sit down, Hua Qianye pulled her back onto the bed.

"The bride should sit on the bed," Hua Qianye said with certainty.

"I..." Han Wuxie lowered his head, took a deep breath, and whispered, "I'm so scared..."

Hua Qianye reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently stroking her back, and said with utmost tenderness, "Don't be afraid."

"They all say that the wedding night will be very painful... Can we... wait until later to consummate the marriage..." Han Wuxie's voice grew softer and softer.

Hua Qianye's hand froze. Normally, he would have agreed immediately to her request, but today's request was really asking too much...

Han Wuxie looked up, his eyes gleaming, and said softly, "Is it alright?"

Looking into her expectant eyes, Hua Qianye took a deep breath, then exhaled, and nodded, saying, "Okay."

Han Wuxie was taken aback, not expecting him to agree, and asked somewhat awkwardly, "So, what do we do next?"

Looking at her rosy cheeks, Hua Qianye really wanted to consummate the marriage, but since she didn't want to, he could only endure it. His smile was somewhat forced as he reached out and pulled her into his arms, then lay her down on the bed and said, "Go to sleep."

"Sleep? Didn't you just say... no..."

Hua Qianye tapped her little head and said with a smile, "What are you thinking! Since I promised you we wouldn't consummate our marriage, I won't make things difficult for you! I'll just hold you and sleep quietly, that's all."

Han Wuxie seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, nodded, and then obediently nestled in his arms.

Feeling the little one's soft, warm, and fragrant body nestled in her arms, Hua Qianye felt a wave of frustration. She could only close her eyes and try to convince herself to sleep, just sleep, and not think about anything else.

However, the more he tried to persuade her, the more it seemed to have the opposite effect, as if reminding himself that he was holding her in his arms, which made his whole body even hotter.

"Why are you trembling?" Han Wuxie frowned as he looked at him.

Hua Qianye smiled bitterly. How could she not tremble? She wanted to pounce on you, but she could only hold back. Of course, she could only tremble.

Han Wuxie frowned slightly when he saw that he did not answer, and then stopped asking.

Hua Qianye sighed, feeling helpless...

Han Wuxie shifted his body, as if trying to find a more comfortable angle, and muttered, "You're so thin, it's all bones pressing against me."

Hua Qianye still smiled bitterly and didn't answer.

As Han Wuxie turned around, his hand involuntarily brushed against Hua Qianye's lower body, causing Hua Qianye to shudder.

Han Wuxie laughed somewhat awkwardly, withdrew her hand, and seeing his face was red, said somewhat timidly, "Do you want to take a shower?"

"Hmm." Hua Qianye hummed in response, then got out of bed and went behind the screen to rinse herself with cold water.

In the candlelight, the shadows cast by the screen could be seen. Han Wuxie frowned slightly and whispered, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Only the sound of flushing water could be heard behind the screen.

"Will it really hurt a lot?" Han Wuxie asked again in a low voice.

Hua Qianye paused in rinsing his hands, wanting to say it didn't hurt so that she would agree to consummate the marriage. However, he had never been with a woman before and didn't know whether it hurt or not.

"Maybe...maybe it doesn't hurt that much..." Han Wuxie's voice was extremely awkward, his face burning red, which had spread all the way to his neck.

Hua Qianye paused for a moment, then said in a hoarse voice, "It might hurt a lot."

Han Wuxie pursed his lips, as if he had made a big decision. He stood up and walked towards the screen, taking off his wedding dress as he went. He led her behind the screen, leaving her with only a thin undergarment.

Hua Qianye's already irritated mind, already clouded by the cold water, went blank for a moment. She frowned and retorted, "What are you doing?!"

"It might hurt a lot, but it might not hurt anymore." She slowly approached him, her face flushed, and whispered, "Even if it hurts, if you grit your teeth, maybe it will pass."

Hua Qianye remained frozen in place, while Han Wuxie pressed herself close to him and whispered, "Husband, shall we consummate our marriage?"

Hua Qianye hesitated, somewhat reluctantly saying, "Let's do it next time."

"I'm ready." She looked up at him firmly, her gaze fixed on his eyes.

Hua Qianye took a breath and suddenly emerged from the water. Han Wuxie lowered his head shyly, after all, he was completely naked at the moment.

Hua Qianye had long been unable to restrain himself, but he forcibly suppressed his impulse with cold water. Now that he had her consent, he picked her up and carried her to the bedside.

Han Wuxie's inner garment was already thin, and after being dampened by the moisture on his body, it became transparent, vaguely revealing her graceful figure.

With only a thin cloth separating them, Hua Qianye could clearly feel the soft touch of his chest, and her body couldn't help but feel even hotter.

He gently placed Han Wuxie on the red bed, tenderly stroking her long, ink-black hair. He took a deep breath, maintaining his last shred of composure, and said, "Are you really not going to regret it? If you call for a stop later, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop. Now there's still a chance. If you shake your head, I'll just hold you and we'll sleep peacefully."

Han Wuxie bit his lower lip, feeling uneasy and hesitant about whether he should shake his head.

Her unconscious act of biting her lip was incredibly alluring, causing Hua Qianye to swallow hard, her Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

Han Wuxie stared into his burning eyes, recalling Ruoxue's words. Could this man really be turning into a wolf? What good would it do to shake his head now?

Han Wuxie couldn't help but chuckle with a mischievous grin. Hua Qianye, not understanding why, watched as Han Wuxie slowly shook his head and then winked at him.

Hua Qianye immediately became listless and weak, lying on her side with her back to Han Wuxie, saying, "Go to sleep."

Did he... really hold back?

Han Wuxie thought he wouldn't care whether he shook his head or not, but he didn't expect...

A warmth welled up in my heart. The fact that he could endure this showed that he cared about me and was willing to respect my choices even if it made him suffer. What's wrong with feeling a little pain for a man like that?

Thinking of this, Han Wuxie raised a wicked smile, moved his body, pressed against his back, hugged him from behind, and whispered in his ear with slightly intoxicated voice, "Huahua, I'm not afraid of pain, shall we consummate our marriage?"

Hua Qianye trembled all over, feeling a soft, boneless touch on her back, and hearing gentle, slightly intoxicating breath in her ear. Her voice was seductive and alluring, and everything about her was so tempting that it made one want to commit a crime.

Hua Qianye whirled around, meeting her bewitching, smiling eyes. His gaze faltered, and he took a breath, saying in a low, husky voice, "Are you sure? Even if you shake your head this time, I won't let you off the hook!"

Han Wuxie nodded, amused.

Hua Qianye suddenly flipped her over and pinned her down, his gaze fixed on her eyes. He wanted to make her his own as soon as possible, but his movements were very gentle and slow. He gently stroked her cheek as if touching a fragile treasure, extremely careful, afraid of hurting her.

He slowly leaned down and gently covered her lips. In the past, he was always the one kissing her, but he never expected that today, as soon as he touched her lips, she would take the initiative to respond, sticking out her tongue to kiss him.

He intended to kiss her gently, but his eyes gradually narrowed. The burning kiss seemed to set them both on fire. Hua Qianye's hands gradually became unruly, restless on her body. An ambiguous atmosphere filled the room. Their clothes were removed, and their breathing became somewhat disordered. In the final act, he was slow and extremely clumsy, looking a little awkward. Han Wuxie was equally inexperienced, biting her lower lip tightly, feeling some pain, but trying her best to endure it.

Like a piece of piano music, from slow to intense... the melody in the room is ambiguous and layered...

Early the next morning.

Han Wuxie opened her eyes and met his smiling, magnified handsome face. She didn't react for a moment, blinked, and her mind flashed back to their wedding night. Her face turned red, and she buried her head under the covers.

"Will you hide under the covers for the rest of your life?" Hua Qianye looked at her amusedly.

Han Wuxie slowly peeked out from under the covers and met his gentle, watery eyes. Her heart warmed, and she tried to get up, but found that her whole body ached.

"Sweetie, sleep a little longer." Hua Qianye gently kissed her forehead, the corners of his mouth curving into a beautiful smile.

Han Wuxie remembered, but didn't have the strength. She pulled back a corner of the blanket and found hickeys on her body. She lowered her eyes. She never knew she was so thin-skinned, but now she found that she didn't even dare to look at his smiling face.

Hua Qianye reached out and hugged her, leaning close to her ear, his voice slightly intoxicated, "My wife, what is there left to hide in front of me? Didn't I already see everything last night?"

Han Wuxie pursed her lips and looked at him with some annoyance.

"Sweetie, sleep a little longer." Hua Qianye hugged her and closed his eyes.

Han Wuxie didn't understand why he wanted her to sleep a little longer, but her body ached and she really didn't want to get up, so she closed her eyes as well.

noon.

Han Wuxie opened her eyes and met his handsome face again.

"Have you had a good night's sleep?" Hua Qianye smiled in an extremely alluring way.

Han Wuxie nodded subconsciously, but no sooner had he finished nodding than he rolled over and pinned him down.

"Hey! What are you doing! You're so heavy, get down!" Han Wuxie pushed him hard.

Hua Qianye leaned down and gently bit her ear, saying ambiguously, "Last night was your first time, and I only dared to touch you once, afraid of hurting you. I'll wait until you've rested well today before we start eating! How can my wife be so stingy with her husband? It's perfectly normal for couples to stay in their bridal chamber for three days and three nights on their wedding night. We still have two days to enjoy ourselves!"

"No!" Han Wuxie was anxious. Last night's one time was already painful enough. He slept all night and spent the whole morning before he felt a little better. If he did it again, he would fall apart and wouldn't be able to recover even after several days of sleep!

"My wife, it's too late to say no now!" Hua Qianye pouted, sounding a bit like a child, and said in a coquettish voice, "I'm starving."

Han Wuxie felt his burning body and couldn't help but stiffen. Now he finally understood why he wanted him to sleep a little longer. It turned out he was waiting to recover before killing him!

Her lips were firmly sealed by his kiss. This time, the kiss was not as gentle as the one last night, but rather like that of someone who had been starving for a long time—domineering, anxious, and irresistibly passionate.

This wildness gradually made her lose herself; her body seemed to crave it too, and an ambiguous atmosphere permeated the entire room…

Just as Hua Qianye said, from the moment they entered the bridal chamber until three days later, when he let Han Wuxie go, the two slowly walked out of the room.

The doorway was already crowded with people, as if they knew in advance that they would come out today and came here to welcome them.

Upon seeing those smiling faces, Han Wuxie lowered his head, his face burning as if it were on fire, the burning extending to his neck.

Several gazes shot over from the side, not with smiles, but with sorrow and resentment. Han Wuxie turned her eyes and saw Xiaobai and the others looking at her with resentment. She could only shake her head and smile bitterly. She had already made it clear to them before she left the mountain to participate in the selection of the Divine Wind King's consort. Whether they understood or not, there was nothing she could do.

Ruoxue pulled Han Wuxie aside, raised an eyebrow, and chuckled, "How was your wedding night?"

Han Wuxie slapped her hand away, saying angrily, "Good my ass!"

Ruoxue frowned, puzzled, and asked, "Not good? You've been in there indulging in pleasure for three whole days?"

"What do you mean by 'intoxicated'! I was clearly locked up by that guy for three days! He was the one who felt comfortable, not me! I was the one suffering!" Han Wuxie complained for a while, then realized that his words seemed a bit inappropriate. He shook his head helplessly, wondering if Hua Qianye had driven him crazy by locking him up for three days. When did he start speaking so without thinking?

Seeing how agitated she was, Ruoxue began to believe her. It seemed she really had suffered for three days, otherwise she wouldn't be so angry.

Ruoxue asked in a very soft and weak voice, "Um... does it hurt?"

Han Wuxie looked at Ruoxue's expression and couldn't help but laugh. Ruoxue, who seemed fearless, actually had something to fear. Then he thought about it and realized that he had been afraid of things before, so he felt relieved.

"It varies from person to person..." Han Wuxie replied perfunctorily. Actually, she was in quite a bit of pain, but she was afraid that if she told the little girl, she would be scared, and then she would be making things difficult for Xingyu. She decided to let her experience it for herself.

Before Ruoxue could ask anything else, Han Wuxie changed the subject, asking with a smile, "Where's Feng Wu? Why haven't I seen Feng Wu and Tianci today?"

Ruoxue raised an eyebrow and smiled, "My sister is already married, so next up are Fengwu and Tianci."

"Oh? The date has been set?" Han Wuxie asked.

Ruoxue nodded and said, "Tomorrow."

"Huh? So fast?" Han Wuxie was speechless.

"It's not going to happen anytime soon. They've been waiting all their lives. If it weren't for respecting my sister's status and letting her get married first, they might have already taken care of things back in the Phoenix Clan."

Han Wuxie smiled knowingly: "They've suffered."

At night, Han Wuxie was reading in his room, thinking that tomorrow Tianci would finally be able to marry Fengwu.

Hua Qianye appeared behind her without her noticing, hugged her, and gently asked, "What's on your mind?"

"Nothing!" Han Wuxie curled his lip, as if one could smell his ulterior motive.

"My lady, since you don't want anything, look, it's getting late, why don't we..."

Han Wuxie pushed him away, glared at him, and said angrily, "Tomorrow is Tianci and Fengwu's wedding day. As their older sister, I'll be very busy. I need to get some rest tonight! Go back to your study and sleep!"

Hua Qianye wore a pained expression, looking like a wronged young wife, and said aggrievedly, "Wife, we're newlyweds! How can you push your newlywed husband into the study!"

"What I say is the truth!" Han Wuxie said impatiently.

Hua Qianye hung his head in grievance. Seeing that he wouldn't leave, Han Wuxie threw him a pillow and blanket, saying irritably, "You don't have to go to the study, you can just sleep on the couch and don't bother me on the bed!"

Hua Qianye took the blanket and pillow, nodding pitifully, but a wicked smile flashed in her lowered eyes.

In the stillness of the night, Han Wuxie was breathing evenly and had fallen asleep when a figure, clutching a pillow, stealthily climbed into bed.

The next morning, Han Wuxie opened his eyes, turned around, and saw someone lying next to him, sleeping soundly.

"Hana Chiba!" came a roar.

Hua Qianye opened his eyes mournfully and said pitifully, "My lady, I was having a wonderful dream, why did you wake me up? The beauty in my dream had just taken off her outer garments, I hadn't even seen her yet, what a pity!"

"What did you say?" Han Wuxie narrowed his eyes dangerously, reached out and grabbed Hua Qianye's ear tightly, angrily saying, "You bastard, how dare you have a wet dream! And you were having a wet dream right next to me!"

Hua Qianye covered his ears and chuckled awkwardly, "Hehe, isn't that right? I feel a little embarrassed having a wet dream next to my wife. But..." He narrowed his eyes, his voice sounding aggrieved, "The person in my dream was indeed my wife! If my wife hadn't ignored me last night, why would I have to see her in my dreams instead of going to see her in person?"

Han Wuxie was taken aback, only then realizing that the guy in front of him was a cunning old fox, and how could he have fallen for his trick so easily.

Han Wuxie snorted coldly, pushed him away, got out of bed and dressed, saying, "Get up now! You're Xingyu's brother-in-law, you have to help out today!"

"Yes, my wife commands, how could I dare disobey!" Hua Qianye appeared extremely loyal.

Han Wuxie curled his lip, too lazy to pay him any attention.

The wedding of Han Tianci and Feng Wu was just as grand as the wedding of Hua Qianye and Han Wuxie, because Hua Qianye was the one who organized it, so the two weddings were naturally very similar.

Han Tianci also left the bridal chamber three days later. However, Feng Wu seemed too tired to leave the room.

Ruoxue wanted to find out if the first time was painful, but unfortunately Fengwu hadn't left her room for several days. Before she could find out, she was taken back to the Fu family to prepare for her marriage.

When Ruoxue first saw the mother of this body, she couldn't help but sigh that the beauty of the divine realm never ages.

She was arranged to stay at the Fu family's residence, waiting for Han Xingyu's bridal sedan chair to arrive in three days.

Three days later...

In the past few days, the Demon God Realm has undergone a major reshuffle, and the entire Demon God Realm has been unified, with the Blood God Emperor as its leader.

Zangwu perched on the Blood God Emperor's shoulder and said in a low voice, "The Fu family is awaiting marriage."

"Fine! Then let her wedding turn into a funeral!" The Blood God Emperor smiled cruelly.

Before the Bottomless Cliff, the Blood God Emperor opened the barrier, and tens of millions of demon gods, led by thirty god kings, followed the Blood God Emperor into the Celestial Realm.

"Head towards the Fu family, kill anyone you see along the way!"

At the Blood God Emperor's command, tens of millions of echoes resounded.

Ruoxue, aren't you getting married? Isn't red auspicious? I, the Emperor, will dye the entire Heavenly Realm blood red for you! As your wedding gift!

A great war between gods and demons is about to break out.

The Fu family continued their lively preparations for their daughter's wedding, completely oblivious to the screams of agony echoing from the Heavenly Realm.

Han Xingyu rode his horse, with the bridal sedan chair following behind. He paid no attention to anything else, focusing solely on preparing to marry his bride.

When the bridal sedan chair stopped at the Fu family's residence, and Ruoxue, with her head covered by a red veil, was led out by her mother and handed to Han Xingyu, a cold laugh rang out from the sky.

A stench of blood assaulted the senses. Han Xingyu coldly glanced at the Blood God Emperor hovering in the air, and the massive army behind him, whose armor was now blood-red, exuding a chilling, bloodthirsty aura.

Han Xingyu already knew about the changes in the Demon God Realm and had calculated that the Blood God Emperor would definitely come to cause trouble, so she did not show any surprise. Instead, her face was full of disdain.

"Ruoxue, I'm giving you one last chance to choose. Today you're getting married. If you marry me, I'll take you back to the Demon God Realm, and I'll spare the others. But if you still insist on getting into the bridal sedan chair with this boy, I'll make you two a pair of dead lovers!"

"Hehe! For so many years, no one has dared to cause trouble when the Fu family is getting married. I never expected that someone would be so fearless today!" An old voice rang out, and an old man with a dignified and otherworldly air flew out from the Fu family. He was the current head of the Fu family.

Hua Qianye, who had accompanied Han Xingyu, paused for a moment, then her gaze instantly brightened with joy. This old man was none other than the head of the Fu family! They had finally met again!

The Blood God Emperor believed that he was invincible in the God Realm after becoming the God Emperor, so he didn't even glance at the old man.

Seeing that the other party ignored him, the old man sneered: "The Fu family is marrying off their child, and no one will be allowed to interfere. Count to three; if you don't leave, you will all be wiped out!"

"Annihilate? Who do you think you are!" the Blood God Emperor mocked.

"One," the old man said calmly.

The Blood God Emperor sneered at Ruoxue, whose head was covered by a red veil: "I'll give you three minutes to choose! One!"

"Two," the old man said quietly.

The Blood God Emperor sneered, "Two!"

The old man sneered and counted, "Three!"

Just as the Blood God Emperor was about to continue counting to three, the old man flicked his sleeve, rendering the Blood God Emperor speechless. He looked in horror at his feet, which had turned to dust. His entire body weathered away at lightning speed, finally losing consciousness and vanishing. His subordinates, seeing the Blood God Emperor's soul dissipate and turn to dust in an instant, tried to escape, but it was too late. Space seemed to shatter; everything around them twisted and deformed, and tens of millions of people disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Old man, you're awesome!" Han Xingyu gave a thumbs up, praising him generously.

The old man turned to look at Han Xingyu, and smiled kindly, saying, "Not bad, child!" His gaze swept over Hua Qianye, and he nodded slightly.

Hua Qianye simply nodded slightly.

After Ruoxue boarded the bridal sedan chair, Han Xingyu led the way to leave, but Hua Qianye stayed behind and walked to the old man's side.

The old man smiled and said, "It's been many years."

Hua Qianye respectfully said, "Thank you for saving me back then, senior. I have found her and we are now married. I just didn't know at the time that you were the head of the Fu family. If I had known, I would have invited you to my wedding."

The old man laughed heartily, "You should have guessed who I am by now, right?"

Hua Qianye raised an eyebrow and tentatively asked, "The Head of Gods?"

The old man raised an eyebrow and smiled meaningfully, "That child's reincarnation must be someone who transcends the control of this planet and becomes the primordial controller of this planet. He asked me for help because the universe is too vast and there are too few people. He hopes that more people will join their ranks."

Hua Qianye wanted to ask more about the universe, but the old man waved his hand and said, "What I know, the head of the gods around you also knows."

"They're still children," Hua Qianye said helplessly.

"I was just a child in the past, but I will grow up, take it slow. Remember, cultivate diligently. The divine root in your body is also showing signs of gradual change. The two of you, husband and wife, will travel the universe together, laughing at the world with pride. It would be a beautiful life, truly enviable." After saying this, the old man's voice became ethereal, turning into smoke and disappearing.

After Han Xingyu's wedding, Hua Qianye conveyed the old man's words to Han Wuxie. Han Wuxie made a decisive decision to go into seclusion. Hua Qianye was reluctant to see her go into seclusion so soon after her wedding, but he was also afraid that she would not be able to pass the test of the Hongmeng Controller and be devoured by the Root of God, so he agreed. Since Han Wuxie was in seclusion, he had nothing to do, so he naturally followed suit and went into seclusion as well.

During the days that Hua Qianye and Han Wuxie were in seclusion, Han Xingyu and Han Tianci broke through to the Ancient God Realm one after another. They learned that if they did not become the controllers of Hongmeng, they would be devoured by the Root of God. Even though they were extremely reluctant to part with their beautiful wives, they had no choice but to go into seclusion.

The time spent in seclusion is fleeting for the person in seclusion, but in the outside world, a thousand years have already passed.

When Han Wuxie emerged from seclusion, she was already a Primordial Controller. It seemed that someone had assisted her, so everything went extremely smoothly. The first person she saw upon emerging from seclusion was an old man. She remembered the old man Hua Qianye had mentioned and realized that when she encountered a bottleneck in breaking through to become a Primordial Controller, it was this old man who transferred divine power to her and helped her break through.

"Thank you, senior."

"It's all fate! Your husband will also emerge from seclusion tomorrow." As soon as he finished speaking, the old man seemed to hear something and smiled at Han Wuxie, "My father is looking forward to your journey to the universe."

Han Wuxie was now the controller of the Primordial Chaos, but he did not act according to what he sensed in his mind. Instead, he smiled and said, "We'll go together when he comes out of seclusion."

The old man nodded, smiled kindly, and left.

The next day, Hua Qianye emerged from seclusion, and Han Wuxie greeted him with a smile. Though they hadn't seen each other for a long time, it felt as if only yesterday. Hua Qianye took Han Wuxie's hand and laughed, "Can you feel it? The call of the universe?"

Han Wuxie nodded and said, "The Root of God has long since left the body and gone to the universe. Shall we go to the universe now and take a look at our world?"

……

The universe is mysterious. Two more rotating planets appeared. Han Wuxie and Hua Qianye appeared in the universe. Other Hongmeng controllers were visible to the naked eye. Everyone smiled and welcomed their arrival.

Two new planets are constantly giving birth to new life, constantly changing and gradually maturing. The one who truly manages all of this is the head of the gods, the controller of Hongmeng, who is free and unrestrained, traveling freely to various planets in the universe and experiencing life on different planets.

Soon after, several more planets appeared in the universe.

……

In a modern metropolis, Ruoxue had transformed into a local attire, and Han Xingyu followed behind her, repeatedly exclaiming, "So this is where you used to live. It's really nice!"

……

In an ancient dynasty, Han Tianci sat on the emperor's throne and said with a playful smile, "Feng Wu, why don't we stay here and be the bosses?"

Feng Wu said with some resentment, "You can't even manage your own planet, what's the point of being the emperor here? Go home!"

Han Tianci glanced disdainfully at the trembling man in the bright yellow robes in the corner and sneered, "My wife and I came here as guests, and you actually covet my wife's beauty? You're really tired of living! I have no interest in your throne, but I'm very interested in your life!"

In this dynasty, the emperor passed away, and Han Tianci, along with Feng Wu, continued to travel to other planets.

……

A place that resembles a divine realm, yet its architecture is very Westernized.

Han Wuxie was accompanied by two children: a little boy with a devilish smile and a little girl with an elegant demeanor but extremely wicked eyes.

Hua Qianye walked ahead, nodding and praising from time to time: "This place is nice, this building is nice. When we get back to our planet, we'll build a few more!"

"Daddy, who gave you such bad taste!" The mischievous little boy rolled his eyes.

The elegant-looking little girl with mischievous eyes sweetly said, "Mommy, I want to go home. It's not fun here!"

"Okay, let's go home!" As soon as he finished speaking, he led the little girl away.

Hua Qianye suddenly snapped out of her daze, looking at the little boy with a frustrated expression, and said, "Huh? My wife left without saying a word again! Come on, let's go after your mother!"

"It's always like this!" the little boy said helplessly.
