1723 Murong Qian's Despair 4

his demonic purple eyes flashed with a light.The wedding continued despite Murong Qian and Cang Ming's interruption. It was as if the two had never appeared at all.

Once the eunuchs and maidservants had removed Murong Qian's body, the wedding proceeded as before...

"The first bow to the heavens and earth!"

Liu Yue returned to his senses, cleared his throat and announced.

Murong Qian's appearance had disrupted the wedding so they had to start the wedding ceremony from the beginning again.

"The second bow to the parents."

"Thirdly, enter the bridal chamber..."

Once the last syllable has been uttered, Qianbei Ye did not wait to be led into the bridal bedchamber as he scooped Gu Ruoyun up in his arms and disappeared from the great hall in a flash.

"Ahem." Liu Yue awkwardly cleared his throat. "The Imperial Consort is too impatient. Since that's the case, this concludes the wedding ceremony. I hope that our Emperor's body will still be able to support itself tomorrow..."

The crowd burst into laughter when they heard this but no other person dared to speak in the same manner as Liu Yue who has Gu Ruoyun's absolute trust. They could only hold their words back in their heart...

The Underworld.

A dead lion cub lay on a table in a luxurious room. A black-robed and silver-haired man was standing next to the little lion on the table as he stared quietly and coldly at it. His eyes flashed with a cold light.

"Qianbei Ye, you've killed the demi-beast human that I've worked so hard to nurture. I will make you pay for this!"

He slowly stepped in front of the little lion and picked it up. He then bit into it emotionlessly. A ripping sound could be heard as he tore off a piece of its flesh before chewing it slowly...

Cang Ming ate the little lion bit by bit. As the flesh entered his mouth, he felt as if his body was brimming with power and that it could overflow at any moment.

However, he had no time to delay and crossed his legs to begin digesting the power in his body...

...

The Cloudy Wind Empire.

Gu Ruouyun had just awakened in Qianbei Ye's arms when she sensed a familiar aura nearby. Her heart leaped with joy and she quickly rose from the bed.

"Xiao Ye, I just sensed Zixie's aura. He's back!"

Qianbei Ye slowly opened his eyes and turned his gaze towards the tightly shut room door. He then smiled. "He's back so soon. This shows that his mission had gone well."

Just as he had spoken, the room's door burst open and a man dressed in dark purple robes entered the room. His demonic purple eyes flashed when his eyes landed upon Gu Ruoyun's face. 

"I've returned, little girl."

I've returned back, little girl...

Gu Ruoyun's heart sighed when she heard that voice which she had not heard for a long time. She left the bed and looked at the purple-robed man who had just entered the room and smiled.

"Zixie, welcome back."

She did not ask where he had gone nor did she ask him what had happened during this period of time. She only gently murmured these words 'welcome back'.

And nothing else!

"You did it?"

Qianbei Ye walked towards Gu Ruoyun's side and his demonic red eyes turned towards Zixie as he asked.

Zixie nodded gently before he slowly approached Gu Ruoyun. His demonic features were filled with an unusually solemn air.

"Little girl, you had once sealed an item off on this mainland ten thousand years ago. As I'm contracted to you, I'm the only one who could retrieve that item for you. However, because that item was in a treacherous location, I was only able to collect it for you now."HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHA. Liu Yue, you're my new favourite character. ( • )( • )ԅ(≖‿≖ԅ)
