on the contrary--

On her wedding night, she was groveling and fawning over... that bastard Shi Yan.

With a click, Ming Zhongle's mind seemed to shatter as well.

"Shiyan!!!" Ming Zhongqing felt like she was going crazy as she looked at Shiyan, who was gripping the slender chain.

The girl's chest rose and fell in sync with the movement.

She was truly furious.

"Why...why why!!?"

"Didn't I promise myself?"

"Does this mean I can so easily disregard the words I say to myself?"

Bai Xiaoxiao sat up again.

Beneath the red satin veil, the fox spirit's distinctly unusual orange eyes seemed utterly ruined, having lost their luster.

Shi Yan smiled maliciously, "Look... doesn't your 'sister-in-law' really like this gift?"

"Let's get married!"

"Why are you all looking at me? Keep going with the wedding ceremony."

The entire hall was deathly silent.

Neither Ming Zhongle nor Ming Zhongqing had joined a sect. Those invited by the Ming family in the hall were all familiar faces from Nanjun City.

Perhaps it was because Ming Zhongle's status in the Ming family was not highly regarded.

Perhaps it was because, in the eyes of the Ming family patriarch, Bai Xiaoxiao was nothing more than a nobody, a rootless duckweed.

Among those invited to the wedding, the one with the highest cultivation level was an old man who had just broken through to the Golden Core realm.

Within the Shi family, faced with the immense pressure from Shi Yan, they could only suppress their emotions.

Besides... isn't watching a play better?

If the young master of the Shi family takes a liking to you, you won't have a good time.

From body tempering to crystallization in one month —

They could only describe them as 'monsters'.

The entire city of Nanjun probably misjudged the situation back then.

No wonder Shi Yan has become such a useless person over the years.

The Shi family, especially the Shi family's second elder, still treated him and his 'sister' like royalty.

That old fox really saw further ahead.

As it turned out, he made the right bet.

"Teacher's words!!!"

"You... bastard!!!" Ming Zhongqing lunged at Shi Yan, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Why, why, why..."

"Didn't I promise myself?"

"Why would you do that...?"

Ming Zhongqing seemed to have already foreseen Ming Zhongle's fate.

The most important thing for those who cultivate immortality is to cultivate their mind.

Today's events will surely become a nightmare in Ming Zhongle's heart.

Even if Shi Yan doesn't kill him and doesn't break through this nightmare, it's almost impossible for Ming Zhongle to break through his cultivation level.

If one forcibly steps into the Foundation Establishment stage... one will inevitably be defeated by inner demons and perish under the heavenly tribulation thunderclouds.

It seems... this was his destined end.

As for whether Ming Zhongle can overcome this nightmare and demonic obstacle.

Ming Zhongqing had a pretty good idea of just how useless his elder brother was.

After today, my brother will probably be completely ruined.

Moreover... Ming Zhongqing's eyes were filled with tears.

Will she really stop here?

She doesn't believe it.

Given Shi Yan's temperament, she would surely cause her elder brother to be utterly destroyed and fall into eternal damnation.

"But...why?"

Snapped--

Shi Yan lightly patted the Tianzhu acupoint on the back of Ming Zhongqing's neck.

Ming Zhongqing immediately collapsed to the ground.

Beside the offering table, the Ming family patriarch and the head of the family, who had just been looking pale, suddenly couldn't sit still anymore and tried to get up despite the terrifying aura locking onto them.

"That brat from the Shi family!!!"

Unlike Ming Zhongle.

Ming Zhongqing is the hope of the Ming family.

One of the reasons they were able to sit still was... there was a clear flirtatious relationship between Shi Yan and Ming Zhongqing.

It's a pity that Ming Zhongle, this "pawn," was abandoned.

But... if we can use this opportunity to turn the tide against the Shi family and, by going with the flow, bring Shi Yan and Ming Zhongqing together.

With the natural talent of a teacher.

If one of their children can inherit the Ming family name and bear the Ming surname, then they've hit the jackpot.

"She's alright." Shi Yan gently pushed Ming Zhongqing to her side, and let Xi Xue Zhi Wu take Ming Zhongqing to rest.

Bai Xiaoxiao's little hands clenched tightly inside her red sleeves.

She lowered her eyes, looking at Shi Yan's hand clutching the chain on the collar around her neck, tears welling up in the girl's empty eyes.

"She...is very kind to others."

"But especially at home..."

"Too."

"In her eyes, I'm just a slave, a useful tool for revenge."

Bai Xiaoxiao felt as if all her strength was being drained away, but in front of Shi Yan, even though she was exhausted, she had to try her best to support herself.

"Let's get married next~" Shi Yan raised an eyebrow and looked at the band playing music. The group of people were timid and hesitant, and then they started playing music again with a hiss.

But... the intermittent joy was played in a distorted way, almost like a funeral dirge.

The Ming family patriarch and the head of the family were forced into chairs.

Those in the hall who were watching the two men remain calm and composed were thinking that they were indeed destined for great things, able to endure even something like this.

Ming Zhongle glared intently at Shi Yan.

He practically ground his teeth to powder, and his face was almost numb.

But... I can't beat Shi Yan.

Master said he was at the 'Crystallization Realm', while he was only at the Qi Refining Realm.

He looked at his great-grandfather for help.

The Ming family patriarch, who was at the Golden Core stage, simply sat there motionless, his face ashen.

It seems that only two paths remain before Ming Zhongle—

Charging forward is certain death, but the fish may die... and the net may not break.

Or just let it be frustrating.

Watching Shi Yan clutch that chain, he and Bai Xiaoxiao got married.

After that... he would feel like he was nailed to a pillar of shame, unable to hold his head up in Nanjun City.

Ming Zhongle trembled, caught in a dilemma.

He wanted nothing more than to rush up and tear Shi Yan to shreds, but... he could only bow his head before this man he had repeatedly mocked and ridiculed, "I... I'm done..."

Bai Xiaoxiao stared blankly at Shi Yan, "Yes..."

For her, everything about her was already marked by that girl.

I was just following her will.

But this one answer completely enraged Ming Zhongle.

He looked at Shi Yan.

Shi Yan revealed the same mocking expression that Ming Zhongle had shown him in Langya Pavilion last time.

Ming Zhongle has completely gone mad.

That humiliation effectively destroyed everything he had.

"Shi Yan!!!" Bai Xiaoxiao's agreement was like a death sentence to him. He hysterically rushed towards Shi Yan, "What exactly do you want!?"

"What do you want?!"

Shi Yan raised his right hand, and the water-based spell "The Great River Flows from Heaven" directly drenched Ming Zhongle.

He saw... Shi Yan's expression slowly turn cold. "Do you know?"
