[Solemn suona horns rose. Though the scene was meant to be extremely festive, it made Zhu Xincheng feel incomparably eerie.]

[Aside from her and Wu Zhen, every person present had bright rouge painted on both cheeks.]

[They looked just like paper effigies from the Underworld.]

[The cold atmosphere around them completely suppressed her aura.]

[A wave of weakness surged through her. Zhu Xincheng could barely remain standing and could only rely on the two maidservants on either side to support her.]

["You... why are you doing this?"]

[Wu Zhen revealed a disappointed expression and said in a low voice, "You still don't understand? I like you! Ever since that encounter a thousand years ago in Nine Victory Valley, I already fell deeply in love with you. But why is it that even now you still don't understand?"]

["Why?"]

[The final word suddenly exploded from Wu Zhen’s mouth in a furious roar, stirring waves of air that twisted the surrounding space!]

[The bright red wedding robe fluttered violently.]

[If the two maidservants had not stood firmly on either side, Zhu Xincheng would likely have collapsed to the ground.]

[Hearing the name Nine Victory Valley again.]

[Zhu Xincheng felt very confused, but what worried her more was Xiao Cui’s life or death.]

[So she forced herself to gather strength and asked again, "Where is Xiao Cui? Is she still alive?"]

[The anger in Wu Zhen’s heart became even more intense. After staring at Zhu Xincheng for several breaths, his expression suddenly softened again.]

[He straightened his groom’s robe, which was not even messy.]

["Xincheng, today is the joyous day of our marriage. Can we not say such unpleasant things?"]

["Whatever it is, I will tell you everything tomorrow."]

["Now, properly marry me!"]

[After speaking, Wu Zhen cast a glance toward a ghost attendant standing ahead.]

[The latter gave a slight nod and then began to officiate the wedding.]

["Music begins. The auspicious hour has arrived. Let us welcome the two newlyweds..."]

[Watching the wedding ceremony proceed step by step, Zhu Xincheng only felt a splitting headache.]

[Yet her entire body had not the slightest strength. She could do nothing.]

[At this moment, Ye Yu’s figure appeared in her mind once again.]

["That old bastard told you to take care of me before he died. Why can’t you appear at a time like this?"]

["Please come save me."]

[Zhu Xincheng’s face was filled with despair.]

[At this moment, the wedding ceremony had already reached its final stage.]

[The ghost attendant had begun to loudly announce, "First bow to Heaven and Earth!"]

[Wu Zhen cooperatively bent forward in a bow, but Zhu Xincheng beside him was unwilling in every possible way.]

[But the two maidservants were right beside her. Just as they prepared to forcibly press Zhu Xincheng down, a sudden change erupted.]

[A crystalline snowflake drifted down and landed on the back of Wu Zhen’s lowered head.]

[Before he could even feel the faint chill, his entire body had already been smashed heavily into the ground, disappearing into a bottomless pit.]

[Ye Yu’s figure suddenly appeared in front of Zhu Xincheng. The latter could not help but widen her eyes.]

[At this moment, she could hardly believe what she was seeing.]

[Just a moment ago she had been praying in her heart for Ye Yu to come, and now he had directly appeared?]

[This couldn’t be a dream, could it?]

[The two maidservants beside Zhu Xincheng darkened their expressions and immediately moved to attack Ye Yu, but before they could even approach, they were instantly cut down by two strands of sword energy!]

[A man wearing a black robe slid forward on one knee and knelt on the ground, still maintaining the pose of an instantaneous slash.]

[This person was the second Protector of the Dao under Demon Transformation, a Sword God of the Divine Monarch Realm.]

[But just to kill two ghost attendants, he could simply pinch a sword seal and be done with it. Why insist on striking such a pose?]

[Someone who didn’t know better might think you were the protagonist!]

[In Ye Yu’s creed, he absolutely does not allow anyone to show off for more than three seconds.]

[So he decisively stepped forward and kicked this Sword God to the ground.]

[Then he pointed at the bottomless black pit nearby and ordered him to go drag Wu Zhen back after beating him half to death.]

[Why not just kill him directly?]

[Good question!]

[Of course it was to leave him for Xiao Cui to fulfill her wish!]

[As for Zhu Xincheng, she—hey, hey, hey!]

[Without the maidservants supporting her, Zhu Xincheng’s entire body collapsed directly onto Ye Yu.]

[The latter hurriedly spread his hands, indicating his innocence.]

["Miss, I came here to save you. It’s normal if you feel moved, but leaning on me like that is a bit improper, don’t you think? Your father specifically told me not to have any improper thoughts about you!"]

[Actually, there was another half of the sentence that Ye Yu did not say.]

[That was that he still had certain expectations for Elder Ge’s final words.]

[What if that had been Elder Ge’s dream?]

[As long as it was fulfilled, that would definitely be another wave of rewards.]

[Ye Yu’s mind was completely focused on becoming a master of fulfilling dreams. He did not pay any attention at all to Zhu Xincheng’s expression.]

[After hearing those words, the softness that had just appeared on Zhu Xincheng’s face instantly turned iron-green.]

["Bastard! You’re even more of a bastard than that old bastard!"]

["I’m clearly weak, yet you say you won’t have designs on me? What, am I really that terrible?"]

[You must know that when people are weak, even speaking becomes powerless.]

[Zhu Xincheng naturally wanted to refute Ye Yu, but she simply had no strength. She could only struggle to turn her head to one side to express her dissatisfaction.]

[But as soon as she turned her head, she saw a severely disfigured face.]

[Zhu Xincheng’s heart jolted violently. She instinctively tried to retreat, but she had no strength to support her body.]

[Using all the strength she had left, she could only twist her head slightly.]

[But in Ye Yu’s eyes, that movement looked more like Zhu Xincheng rubbing herself against his chest.]

[He remembered that Bai Miaoleng had also liked doing this before, using it to show intimacy.]

[Unexpectedly, it was still the same position, yet not the same person.]

[Ye Yu frowned slightly.]

["Why are you getting more and more carried away as you talk? Elder Ge is already gone, yet you’re still this rebellious and disobedient?"]

[Hearing this, Zhu Xincheng was almost angered to the point of vomiting blood. She could only lift her head and glare at Ye Yu fiercely to express her dissatisfaction.]

["Bastard, you’re truly too much!"]

["Sect Master, it’s me, Xiao Cui!"]

[Zhu Xincheng suddenly heard Xiao Cui’s voice echo in her mind, which made her feel extremely surprised.]

[Could it be...]

[Zhu Xincheng looked again toward the woman with the ruined face. She saw her desperately pointing at herself, yet only able to produce broken sounds.]

[The Xiao Cui in her memories had been pure and adorable. It was impossible to associate her with the woman in front of her.]

[Zhu Xincheng instantly felt incomparably bitter inside.]

[Her eyes reddened slightly, almost shedding tears.]

[Xiao Cui had actually been tortured into such a state. Wu Zhen was truly detestable!]

[At this moment, Xiao Cui also noticed that Zhu Xincheng’s condition was very wrong.]

[So she gathered divine power into her palm, condensed it into a jade-green leaf, and carefully placed it into Zhu Xincheng’s mouth.]
