Ming Ye stood in the darkness, holding Sang Jiu. He was suddenly afraid to carry her out to the sunlight, right now he did not want to see her gaze.
In the end, Ming Ye walked out of the prison alone. He understood that Sang Jiu wouldnât apologize.
Seeing his pale face, an immortal maid looked at him anxiously and said, âTrue Lord, Saint Tian Huan is crying.â
Ming Ye said, âI know.â
He walked towards Tian Haoâs palace. Sure enough, he heard the sound of pained weeping even before he got close.

Gods had divine marrows, immortals had spiritual marrows, and demons and devils had devil roots.
Damage to the spiritual root was no less than the pain of cutting bone. Tian Huan had survived, and these days, Tian Hao had been using pain-relieving medicine to nurse her body, but it still couldnât ease her pain. As soon as she woke up, she would cry in pain.
Once Ming Ye walked in, Tian Huan tugged at his sleeve and wept, âMing Ye, Iâm in so much pain, Iâm in so much pain.â

Ming Yeâs spiritual marrow was greatly desired by many!

Ming Ye said, âI will give my spiritual marrow to Tian Huan, then this matter will be treated as if it never happened. From now on, Shangqing will be returned to Master and all your kindness will be reciprocated. Venerable2Â Tian Hao, thereâs only one Three Realms Execution Order3, so itâs better for you to not waste it on a little clam sprite.â
After speaking, he was about to move to remove his spiritual marrow.
Tian Huan firmly grasped his sleeve and looked at him incredulously, âMing Ye, do you know what youâre doing? For that clam sprite, you would actuallyâŠâŠâ
Ming Ye said, âA hundred years ago, she was already my immortal consort, my wife.â
Tian Huan smiled wanly, âNow that things have gone this far4, I must tell you the truth. The Clam Clan has long colluded with the demons and devils since a hundred years ago. You said that Sang Jiu was controlled by an evil spirit, and other people donât believe it, but I do. Itâs just that she wasnât controlled, she willingly did everything for that evil spirit.â
Ming Ye coldly looked at her.
Tian Huan said, âYou wondered why she wasnât willing to wait for you at the bamboo forest when sheâd clearly seen the message you left behind. Thatâs because back then, she was with a wolf demon. You must have recognized the Devil Godâs great general, Shao Ju, right? If you investigate, youâll know that during that time, she was together with him.â
Tian Huan looked at him with tearful eyes, âMing Ye, do you still not understand? Sang Jiu doesnât love you anymore. She has been fooling around with Shao Ju for so long, the whole Mo River filled with demonic Qi. Why would you abandon Shangqing for her!â
Ming Ye clenched his fists and tightly pursed his lips; his gaze had always been cold, but now it was sharper than ever, âShut up!â
Tian Huan sobbed and shook her head, âEven you donât know where Mo Riverâs demonic Qi came from. Since the Devil God is dead, other than Shao Ju, who would have such a strong demonic Qi? You donât understand a womanâs heart. You neglected Sang Jiu for a hundred years. No matter how much she had liked you in the past, what else is left now except hate?â
Ming Yeâs fingertips paled.
Heâd left a secret message in the bamboo forest, asking Sang Jiu to wait for him for seven days. But when he went back to look for her on the seventh day, he couldnât find her. Instead, he saw that the forest was filled with a strong demonic QiâŠâŠ

Sang Jiu used to rejoice at the sight of him, but now, she wouldnât even let him get close to her.
Ming Ye coldly said, âI donât believe it. Since Saint Tian Huan doesnât want my spiritual marrow, Iâll find another way to compensate you. If all of you really donât want to let Sang Jiu go, I canât stop you every time. But I hope Venerable Tian Hao understands that Ming Ye hasnât been a True Lord for a thousand years for nothing.â
As soon as he finished speaking, an immortal soldier rushed over to reportââ
âTrue Lord, the imprisoned clam sprite has disappeared!â
At these words, Ming Yeâs expression greatly changed. His eyes were icy cold, and in almost an instant, heâd already appeared in the prison.
Just like what the immortal soldier had said, the prison was empty.
There was a very faint demonic Qi scattered in the air. It was so familiar that rage and panic almost made him lose his mind. In the blink of an eye, he followed the demonic Qi to a hundred miles5 away.

Su Su was curled up on the back of the giant wolf demon.
Shao Juâs voice was gentle, âIf youâre tired, just sleep. I wonât let them kill you.â
Su Su softly said, âIâm not afraid of them killing me.â
Shao Ju said, âMing Ye will discover my break into Shangqing, and it wonât be long before he catches up. But I didnât come without a chance of winning. Donât be afraid, Iâll be able to take you away. Itâs just that the demons and devils arenât doing well, Iâm afraid that by following me youâll have to suffer for a while.â

Su Su asked, âWhy did you save me?â
âYou saved me,â Shao Ju said.
Su Su miserably laughed and said, âIâve also saved others, but they killed my Royal Father.â
Shao Ju sighed, âSang Jiu, kindness isnât a sin.â
Su Su opened her blood-red eyes, looked up at the sky and murmured to him, âHave I become a demon now?â
Shao Ju gently smiled and said, âYouâre an immortal.â
Tears slid down the corners of her eyes and silently fell onto Shao Juâs back. Flustered, she hurriedly wiped them off, âSorry, I didnât mean to.â
Shao Ju said, âItâs alright.â
As he took her and ran through the golden fields, Su Su realized that it was already the tenth month in the mortal realm, it was autumn.
As Shao Ju said, they didnât go far before the black-haired and white-clad Immortal Lord was already waiting for them ahead, holding an immortal weapon.
Shao Ju put Su Su down.
Su Su looked at the man in front of her. She thought Ming Ye would be angry, since in the Three Realms, who didnât know that Immortal Lord Ming Ye was the strictest about the rules. His heart of Dao was solid, and there was no room for demons in his eyes. She was also prepared to die here today.

Su Su clearly knew that Shao Ju wouldnât be able to get her very far away, but she still climbed onto his back. This was probably the most selfish sheâd ever been in this life.
