Even so, such a magnificent sight is still worthy of praise.

"Does Lord Jiang like these pavilions, buildings, and temples that I have collected?"

Yue Jianghan's captivating, soft voice echoed in her ears. She glanced at Jiang Shaoguang with a charming and alluring look, and the latter's astonished gaze at her hidden treasure greatly satisfied her vanity.

Jiang Shaoguang nodded in a daze, having to admit that the magnificent scenery before him, a blend of all these beautiful sights, was truly astonishing.

Yue Jianghan smiled faintly, then stretched out her jade hand and pointed to a large courtyard next to a restaurant not far away. Inside the courtyard, which was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations in a festive red color, it seemed to be celebrating something.

"That building over there is the most prized building on this floor of mine. Lord Jiang, would you be interested in going there?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shaoguang snapped out of his reverie, carefully examined the seemingly ordinary courtyard several times, and asked in confusion, "It doesn't seem to have anything special about it."

"You'll know once you go in."

Jiang Shaoguang nodded, thinking that it might not be a bad idea to just take a look.

Led by Yue Jianghan, Jiang Shaoguang stepped into the courtyard. Strangely, the layout of the courtyard was not special. It was decorated like an ordinary noble family home. Spirit plants were planted on both sides, and the ground paved with gray and white stone bricks was slightly cold. It was arranged in a cross shape, and there was a stone table in the center.

It does look somewhat similar to the former Yuntian Academy.

However, the main house was decorated with scarlet lanterns, red paper was pasted on the inside of the roof, and a bright red carpet stretched from inside the house to outside. If you looked closely, you could also see two pairs of bright red shoes placed at the edge of the red carpet outside.

Jiang Shaoguang was filled with doubt when he saw Yue Jianghan push open the door and enter. After hesitating for a while, he still followed her.

But as soon as I stepped inside, I heard a loud "bang".

Jiang Shaoguang turned around in astonishment and saw Yue Jianghan silently close the door, and with her nimble hands, she lowered the doorpost and locked the door from the inside.

"Miss Yue, what are you doing?" Jiang Shaoguang frowned, realizing that Yue Jianghan's behavior was too strange and that he was about to draw his sword.

"Don't be so nervous, Lord Jiang."

Yue Jianghan paid no attention to Jiang Shaoguang's sword, but looked around with a touch of emotion.

"Take a look at this house first, see if there's anything special about it?"

"Ok?"

Looking out.

A bright red veil hangs from each of the four pillars, through which one can vaguely glimpse the scene behind it.

Beneath their feet was a square red carpet laid on the floor tiles, with a conspicuous double happiness character embroidered in light gold thread on top.

On the table were a pair of white jade wine cups, and a wine pot with curved handles on both sides was placed in the center of the table, waiting for a newlywed couple to uncork the wine pot and pour the fine wine into the cups.

Looking back, one can see that the soft bed embroidered with red flowers is clearly large enough for two people to sleep together, but there is only one pillow with two slight indentations, obviously prepared for two people to sleep together.

There is a thin rope at each end of the bed. With a gentle pull, the sheer curtains on both sides of the bed will fall down, so that no one can see what anyone is doing on the bed.

After surveying the area for a week, Jiang Shaoguang learned the true nature of the place.

"This is the bridal chamber." Jiang Shaoguang's lips twitched, and he stared at Yue Jianghan with a look of stomach pain on his face.

Why did this girl bring me here? A man and a woman coming to this place are bound to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings.

If Junior Sister Luo Kui sees this, she might get another beating.

Mind this.

Jiang Shaoguang then realized that Fan Luokui hadn't been by his side since the beginning of the incident.

He paused slightly, then recalled that he had initially been following Fan Luo Kui closely, but later, when his junior sister Luo Kui became fascinated by the sword, he was also drawn to some strange and mysterious swords.

When she came to her senses, she was already following in Yue Jianghan's footsteps, admiring the rare treasures that were collected and protected along the way.

What is your purpose?

Jiang Shaoguang reacted particularly quickly. He soon realized that Yue Jianghan had brought him here not simply to show him her collection.

He instinctively tried to draw his sword and unleash his hostility, but for some reason, his spiritual energy suddenly became uncontrollable, and his entire body inexplicably stiffened.

Yue Jianghan smiled slightly and sat down at the mahogany table. The beautiful woman with skin as white as snow gently held the left handle of the wine pot, letting the wine inside fall into the wine cup.

She filled both cups, took a sip herself, savoring the pleasant aftertaste of the heat in her throat, and said, "This bridal chamber was once the place where a celestial demon and his wife got married."

Yue Jianghan did not answer Jiang Shaoguang's question, but continued to explain on her own.

"That demon was deeply in love with his wife, and the two got married in this bridal chamber. But no one knew that his wife had actually died of illness ten years ago. On that day, the entire demon sect cheered for their sect leader, but no one knew that the bride under the red veil was actually just a dead person."

"He preserved his lover's remains intact for ten years, a full ten years, just to wait for that day, the day he ascended to the position of sect leader, to marry his lover. They were childhood sweethearts, inseparable since they were little. Later, he became a demon due to various misfortunes, while she was just a mortal."

"After the wedding night, when the followers of the Demonic Sect went to invite their sect leader and his wife out of the bridal chamber, they only found the sect leader lying on the wedding bed, who had committed suicide long ago, and his wife who had been dead for many years."

"That's a really good story, isn't it?"

Yue Jianghan's gaze met Jiang Shaoguang's in mid-air, and sparks seemed to fly between them.

"Why are you bringing this up?" Jiang Shaoguang asked in a deep voice.

Yue Jianghan did not reply immediately, but chuckled softly and slowly stood up.

now.

Suddenly, a soft yet deep melody, tinged with sadness, filled the room.

Jiang Shaoguang was shocked to discover that there was a guqin (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument) at the edge of the room, which was playing music on its own even though no one was playing it.

It was a mournful and desolate, hopeless and helpless melody, yet it also contained a touch of solace and a sense of relief.

Under the influence of this melody, Jiang Shaoguang was unable to control his body and walked towards Yue Jianghan.

Yue Jianghan's hand was pressed tightly against Jiang Shaoguang's hand. Yue Jianghan smiled happily, and a hint of girlish shyness appeared between her brows, but the joy on her face could not be concealed at all.

She revealed her pearly white teeth, raised her head, and her eyes seemed to shimmer with mist. Her soft voice reached Jiang Shaoguang's ears: "Lord Jiang, would you care to dance with me?"

"you……"

Jiang Shaoguang was completely helpless, and his body began to move on its own.

The melody is long and drawn out, not melodious, and rather mournful.

He could hear the demon's state of mind in the music: the joy of marrying his lover, the sorrow of his lover's death, and the self-mockery of his own foolishness.

The song is long, and so is the dance.

Jiang Shaoguang's movements were perfectly synchronized with Yue Jianghan's dance steps. Under the backdrop of the music, the two truly seemed like a match made in heaven. Every movement was fluid and graceful, as if they had been partners who had been in sync for many years.

Yue Jianghan lightly touched her toes and danced twice, displaying her full figure without reservation to Jiang Shaoguang.

Yue Jianghan's appearance was not bad, and coupled with her shy and naive girlish expression at this moment, along with the mournful music and the ambiguous environment around her, Jiang Shaoguang felt as if his temperament was being affected.

But when he noticed that as the dance progressed, the two seemed to be moving towards the wedding bed, he felt something was wrong.

"Um, Miss Yue, isn't it a bit... a bit much if we continue like this..."

He gave the bridal chamber behind him a dangerous look and quickly signaled Yue Jianghan to stop.

In response, Yue Jianghan simply lowered her head shyly, blushing, and said in a low voice, "Once you step into this room, unless you are forcibly broken by external interference, it will continue indefinitely."

"So... later..."

Just thinking about what was about to happen made Yue Jianghan's body go weak, and her dance steps became unsteady.

The sound was so faint it was barely audible.

Jiang Shaoguang could only barely hear a few faint words.

"Please be gentle."

……

……

Jiang Shaoguang was stunned.

Am I really going to give this little witch...?

He suddenly felt a pang of regret.

If I had told the Forging Master beforehand to forge a chastity belt immediately, maybe this trouble wouldn't have happened!

It's too late to regret it now. Judging from the current situation, they only have half a minute left before they really consummate their marriage!

Unsurprisingly, Junior Sister Yu Chan is still admiring the treasures, Fourth Brother is still looking at paintings and books, and Luo Kui is probably still immersed in the world of swords.

In other words, no one saved him!

Oh shit, it's over.

Jiang Shaoguang's eyes darkened; he seemed to sense that his life was about to enter an extremely dark phase.

just.

The moment the thought crossed my mind.

boom!

The gate, which had been blocked by the pillars, was cleaved open by countless beams of cold light, turning into scattered pieces of wood in the blink of an eye, which fell to the ground.

At the same time, the music that was about to reach its climax came to an abrupt end, and the force that had been binding Jiang Shaoguang disappeared without a trace.

Yue Jianghan froze, her expression stiffening for a second before she whirled around, staring at the cherry-blossom-colored figure in the doorway with a mixture of shock and anger, demanding, "Why are you ruining my plans again—"

"Fan Luokui!"

Faced with Yue Jianghan's questioning, Fan Luokui was too lazy to pay attention, and instead stared at Jiang Shaoguang with a strange and gloomy gaze.

Jiang Shaoguang swallowed hard, blinking awkwardly, "Um... Junior Sister, how... did you get here?"

Fan Luokui's answer to this was very simple.

"I'm lost again."

27. The Theory of the Demon Dynasty

Fan Luokui's ability to get lost is a very peculiar characteristic.

Every time this girl gets lost, she seems to encounter some very strange things. For example, she got lost before and ended up in Hanyin City, which left her quite bewildered.

But this time, Jiang Shaoguang couldn't say for sure—whether she was truly lost or had sensed the problem from the beginning and followed along.

However, Fan Luokui's appearance finally stopped this increasingly terrifying trend. If she had arrived a few steps later, she might have really been dealt with by Yue Jianghan.

Although she was indeed a beauty, Jiang Shaoguang wasn't a human bulldozer who would try to trick every beautiful woman he saw into bed.
