From that day on, Ye Qingqiuâs life became a living h.e.l.l. She didnât know what method that man had used to keep her alive but she wished that she had died with Long Jue back then.
Not only did she have to serve him, she also had to go out to find beautiful virgins for him. He didnât need them to have Water Spirit Veins anymore, he would go after all those who were still virgin.
Ye Qingqiu had thought of escape before, but every time she tried, she was caught by him. And the punishment for attempting to escape was beyond her tolerance range so she didnât dare to escape any more.
Because her body had been nourished well for so many years, she was pretty much a tonic that needed to be slowly digested to him. As long as she obeyed him, her life was still bearable. The ones who had it worse were the girls she kidnapped. They had been tormented to the point you couldnât see their former selves any more.
âA lot of women have been disappearing recently. I heard this matter was brought to the attention of the person in charge. They say people have already been sent to investigate.â
âHumph, who knows whether itâs those demons that did it&h.e.l.lip;â
âShh, do you want to die?! The Cultivation World is demon territory now! Donât say these kind of things in the future.â
Ye Qingqiu pa.s.sed by them expressionlessly. âHas the attention of the demons been roused already?â
When she returned to the village she was staying in, Ye Qingqiu lowered her head and spoke to the man sitting cross-legged on the bed. âThe demons have already discovered that people are going missing. Should we switch locations?â
It wasnât that she hadnât thought of letting the demons deal with him, but her life was in his hands right now so if he died, she wouldnât be able to live either.
âFound out so quickly?â The man humphed. âDoesnât matter. I canât confront Jun Wuqi for the moment but once Iâve regained my strength, itâs only a matter of time before the position of Demon Lord is mine!â
Ye Qingqiu lifted her head to find the man staring at her, a sinister gleam in his eyes. Ye Qingqiuâs heart leapt as the hands at her sides clutched desperately at the hem of her clothes. The man pulled Ye Qingqiu onto the bed.
The two had to act in secret and hide from the Demon Race. Whenever the demons began to figure out something was off, they would immediately switch locations.
As the number of missing people increased, Jun Wuqiâs attention was roused. There were few females within the Demon Race so the ones who went missing were pretty much all human cultivators. The number of people missing was already high enough to affect the normal working of the Cultivation World so it was imperative that the matter be investigated thoroughly.
&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;
Jun Wuqi and that man contested with each other for a long time but in the end, it was Jun Wuqi who won.
âDonât kill me&h.e.l.lip; He was the one who forced me to do all those things&h.e.l.lip; Donât kill me, donât kill me&h.e.l.lip;â Ye Qingqiu lay on the ground, dying. Her features had already aged but they were still beautiful. She looked rather pitiful when she cried so miserably.
âYe Qingqiu, you brought this on yourself. You let that evil demon out and it was you who helped him recover his strength over the course of these few centuries.â Jun Wuqi was unsympathetic.
âIt wasnât me&h.e.l.lip; He signed the contract with me, it was him&h.e.l.lip; Itâs not my fault, why am I being treated like this? It was clearly him&h.e.l.lip;â Ye Qingqiu continued muttering the same lines.
âItâs all that demonâs fault! He destroyed me! And Shang Shu too! That b.i.t.c.h! I want to kill her!â
Jun Wuqi shook his head. âHave you forgotten the reason behind the circ.u.mstances on why he was able to sign the contract with you in the first place?â
Ye Qingqiuâs twisted expression suddenly calmed down.
âYou robbed someone else first, causing yourself to be hunted and then fell down that cliff. Ye Qingqiu, all of this was your own doing, you canât blame others for it.â
âMy own doing? Hahaha, my own doing&h.e.l.lip; No. Thatâs not right. It was Shang Shu who killed my Master, causing me to turn out like this! Itâs all Shang Shuâs fault!â Seeing the hate in Ye Qingqiuâs eyes, Jun Wuqi didnât continue speaking as he ordered people to end her.
&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;
Shi Sheng received the news on the day of her wedding. Yes, you heard that right, Feng Ci was going to marry her&h.e.l.lip; Though no one attended the wedding.
Now that Ye Qingqiu was dead, her mission was considered complete. Now her remaining time would belong to herself. And Feng Ci.
âXiaoshu, would you like it to be more lively?â Feng Ci entered from outside as he asked Shi Sheng with a smile. âIf you like, I can get people to attend our wedding.â
Even if those people werenât willing, what he had were ways to compel them to.
âTheyâre not the ones Iâm getting married to, why would you want to bring them here to take up s.p.a.ce?â âEven if they attended, it would be out of fear and not with well-wishes. What would be the point?â
Feng Ciâs lips curved into a smile, his dark-red eyes filled with warmth and gentleness. He didnât like letting others see his Xiaoshu. She belonged to him alone.
On the day of the wedding though, there were a few uninvited guests. The first was Jun Wuqi. Feng Ciâs expression was as dark as tribulation clouds upon seeing him.
âWeddings should be livelier! What are you two just hiding from everyone and getting married in secret?â Jun Wuqi ignored Feng Ciâs dark expression as he set down his present with a smile. âHere are the famous Nether b.u.t.terflies of the Demon World.â
Jun Wuqi opened the box and gold-patterned black-winged b.u.t.terflies flew out. They flew around Shi Sheng and Feng Ci in a pattern.
âPeople who have been blessed by the Nether b.u.t.terflies are said to accompany each other to old age.â Jun Wuqi spoke with a âseriousâ tone, causing Feng Ci to immediately retrieve the flames he had been planning on unleashing on the poor b.u.t.terflies.
âBut&h.e.l.lip; these Nether b.u.t.terflies are poisonous.â Jun Wuqi gave Shi Sheng an ambiguous look before immediately escaping. âI shanât bother you two anymore! Have a happy wedding!â
The Nether b.u.t.terflies didnât manage to escape the fate of being burnt to a crisp in the end.
The next uninvited guests were Bai Lang and Lin Yiyi. Lin Yiyi was still as buoyant as ever; time didnât seem to have left any traces on her.
âJunior Martial Sister, congratulations!â Bai Lang gave his well-wishes very sincerely as he handed over the wedding gift he had brought.
âThank you, Martial Brother.â Shi Sheng smiled as she received the present.
âMartial Aunt, Martial Aunt, youâre so pretty!!! Ao ao ao! I want to marry you too!â Lin Yiyi pulled Shi Sheng into a few spins. In the end, she was pulled back by Bai Lang when he saw Feng Ci was about to start setting fires.
â&h.e.l.lip;I want to ask: How did you guys get up here?!â âThis is the Celestial World ah! How did these two non-ascended get up here?!â

Lin Yiyi blinked, âMartial Aunt, didnât you know? Now that the Cultivation World is the territory of the Demon Race, we can enter the Demon World whenever we want. You can get to the Celestial World from the Demon World, you know.â
Shi Sheng, â&h.e.l.lip;â âDidnât know that route existed&h.e.l.lip;â
Bai Lang and Lin Yiyi stayed to attend the wedding. The last uninvited guest was apparently Lu Zhang. He came representing the Celestial World. Lu Zhang currently had tears streaming down his face inwardly. âWhy am I always the one being pushed out?â
The entire Celestial World: âBecause youâre our Grand Steward! If sacrificing you can bring peace to the entire Celestial World, Steward Lu, youâre a hero!â
Shi Sheng and Feng Ciâs wedding was rather simple; it only took ten or so minutes from start to finish. Once the ceremony was done, the two slipped away, leaving the three guests to stare at each other. âWhat kind of a wedding have you ever attended where the bride and groom just leave like this?! Oi! Your guests are still here!â
