Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

That old man wants to use Bai Luwei as a furnace for breaking through his cultivation realm.

They even used the name of Master Hongfu, claiming it was a marriage bestowed by the master.

Su Chen gently pinched it with his knuckles.

"Go on."

Sun Long smacked his lips.

"Brother Chen, as you know, Lu Wei and I... no, I mean the Holy Maiden, we grew up together since we were little."

"Childhood sweethearts".

Sun Long awkwardly touched his nose.

"Of course, my heart is with the Holy Maiden."

"I've already accepted it. I can never compare to your brother Chen in this lifetime, and the Holy Maiden's heart has never been with me."

"I'd be the first to object to having the Holy Maiden serve as a cauldron for that old man!"

Su Chen didn't say anything, but simply gestured for him to continue.

"It's not just me."

Sun Long lowered his voice.

"Those elders in the sect are actually all on your side."

"Who wouldn't want to marry Su Chen?"

"But with the imposing presence of Master Hongfu, who dares to utter a sound?"

"There was no other way, so the elders sent me to Luoyan City to discuss things with Senior Li Ziran."

"Let's see how to give Master Hongfu a satisfactory reply."

Sun Long pointed to the deep crater that had been smashed out.

"Who knew that those bastards from the Starry Sky Dao Sect somehow knew I was going to Luoyan City."

"They sent these two Nascent Soul cultivators to keep an eye on me the whole time."

"With my fiery temper, how could I stand being stared at like a persistent ghost?"

"They started fighting over the slightest disagreement."

"We couldn't beat them, that's why they were chased all over the snowy region."

After listening, Su Chen remained silent for a long time.

The temperature in those eyes gradually cooled down.

Su Chen believed that this was the first time he had ever been so angry in his two lifetimes.

Wang Qiushan.

A seemingly respectable elder, but deep down he's a despicable lecher.

If that old man really manages to kidnap Bai Luwei and use her as a furnace...

From then on, every cultivator in the entire Xuanhuang Continent knew that Su Chen's fiancée had been slept with by an old lecher.

The news of his marriage to Bai Luwei had already spread throughout the Xuanhuang Continent.

I can't swallow this insult.

Moreover, Su Chen had also developed genuine feelings for Bai Luwei.

That girl was aloof and detached from the world, like a block of ice that would never melt.

But in front of me, she is a completely different person.

Thinking about that contrast, Su Chen actually missed her a little.

Can't wait any longer.

Su Chen stood up.

"Sun Long".

"lead the way."

"Return to Xueyuan Pavilion."

Sun Long jumped up from the ice stone, then remembered something.

"Brother Chen, should I... go to Luoyan City first?"

"Should we tell Senior Li Ziran about this?"

Su Chen waved his hand.

"No need."

"I won't delay this matter for even a moment longer."

"I'll handle it myself."

There was a chill in Su Chen's voice.

"Let the Starry Sky Dao Sect give up on this idea completely."

...

The mountain gate of Xueyuan Pavilion is shrouded in a snow mist that never melts.

The snow fog was bone-chillingly cold.

As soon as Su Chen and Sun Long landed on the white jade steps in front of the mountain gate, several figures emerged from the mist to greet them.

Several elders of Xueyuan Pavilion.

Upon seeing that the visitor was Su Chen, the old men's faces immediately lit up with smiles, and they quickly came forward to greet him.

"Master Su!"

"You're finally back!"

"We've been waiting for you every day!"

An elderly man with a white beard tugged at Su Chen's sleeve, acting very warmly.

"Master Su, in this matter, we old men are all on your side and on the side of Luoyan City."

"Absolutely true!"

A thin, long-faced elder standing nearby quickly echoed his sentiment.

"Absolutely, absolutely."

"But those Red-Haired Monk and Wang Qiushan are really beyond our ability to deal with."

"We are willing but powerless."

Su Chen looked at those fawning old faces and sneered inwardly.

These old folks.

In order to save his life, he entrusted his soul and blood to himself.

Now, with just a thought, these old guys would be utterly destroyed.

No wonder they fawned over them so much.

If these old fogies knew that Master Hongfu had long since betrayed the righteous path and joined their side, they would probably be scared to death.

However, these opportunists cannot be trusted.

Fortunately, Bai Luwei is one hundred percent on my side.

"Elders, there's no need for that."

Su Chen pulled his sleeve out of the old man's hand.

"Don't worry about this."

"Su will handle it himself."

"Now, all we have to do is wait."

"We'll wait for the people from the Starry Sky Dao Sect to arrive."

The elders exchanged glances, all of them seeing a hint of unease in each other's eyes.

Seeing Su Chen's confident demeanor, she dared not ask any further questions.

"What the real person said is true."

"What the real person said is true."

Su Chen ignored the old fogies and walked straight into the mountain gate.

He still remembered that little pavilion by the frozen lake.

...

The water in the frozen lake was crystal clear.

In the middle of the lake stands a delicate little pavilion, with plain white gauze curtains hanging on all four sides.

It was very quiet in the attic.

Bai Luwei leaned against the soft couch, her pair of fair and jade-like feet listlessly holding a small rag doll.

The doll was being pinched and moved around.

In just a short period of time, she has lost a lot of weight.

That blue robe seemed somewhat empty.

A plate of glistening spiritual fruits sat on the table, but she didn't touch a single bite.

His brows were furrowed with an unyielding sorrow.

Bai Luwei sighed softly.

The attic door was pushed open from the outside.

A gust of cold wind swept in, causing the gauze curtains to sway.

Bai Luwei didn't even turn her head.

The voice was full of exhaustion and impatience.

"Leave me alone."

"Unless Su Chen comes back."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have stepped out of this attic."

"Also, tell those old guys not to waste their time."

Bai Luwei's fingers clenched the doll tightly.

"If it really comes to the point where I have no choice but to submit to Wang Qiushan."

"Then I self-destructed my primordial spirit."

"I will never leave Xueyuan Pavilion alive."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Luwei was about to turn around.

Suddenly, a warm, large hand firmly grasped the toes of the doll she was holding.

Bai Luwei froze.

She instinctively struggled, but the hand remained motionless.

With a single pull, she was flipped over and pressed down onto the soft couch.

That posture was both awkward and ambiguous.

She had her back to the person who came, and couldn't even turn her head.

"How dare you!"

Bai Luwei was both ashamed and angry.

"Who is it!"

Being manipulated like this, she couldn't even muster a single bit of spiritual power.

Behind me, a voice that was all too familiar came.

"What?"

"Perverted Saintess"

"She doesn't even recognize her own fiancé?"

Bai Luwei's pretty face flushed bright red instantly.

It's Su Chen.

He's back.

Moreover, she is still as domineering and unreasonable as before, controlling herself without any explanation.

But ironically, she falls for it.

The feeling of being completely conquered by Su Chen instantly put her previously anxious heart back on track.

"You...let go."

Bai Luwei's voice was so soft that it lacked any confidence.

...
