instead, it eerily seeped into the sword body, as that silver sword greedily absorbed his essence blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Baili An’s pupils slowly expanded with the color of death, he slowly fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could, he wished for a period of peace, to ride on dreams as a horse, travel the road, indifferent to fame and glory, only seeking tranquility and ease...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If her purpose in coming to Taixuan was to avoid him disturbing her wedding, then he would no longer insist on interfering with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just hoping she spends her remaining years in peace...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing stood there dumbfounded, as if the entire world had turned to gray, her heart being hollowed out piece by piece.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she was fine, in her mind, bizarrely, a life film replayed clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The year they first met, he was a wounded and embarrassed young man, holding a pretty little girl in his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, he innocently came to her room, saying he wanted to be friends with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He taught her to hold a pen, to read and recognize words, and would sneak out at midnight to catch fish, catch chickens, and pick wild vegetables to cook for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, she felt what stability in this world meant from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their youth, they were clueless, first feeling of love, not knowing how it started, standing on the edge between life and death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until today, she finally understood that he had always been in her heart; this is love...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing understood Baili An’s final words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was too late...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing staggered and stumbled over, falling five times despite the short distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was covered in snow and mud, hugging Baili An’s already cold and lifeless body with empty eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared blankly at the abyss and, without a second thought, clutched Baili An tight, silent as she leaped into the abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her determination was exactly the same as Baili An’s when he committed suicide!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bansheng’s face turned pale with horror, as a long white silk like a spirit snake emerged from her wide sleeves, wrapping tightly around Su Jing and Baili An, pulling them back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you crazy!\" Li Bansheng chastised angrily, deeply frightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when she lowered her eyes to look, all her scolding words got stuck deep in her throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing’s eyes lit up with a scarlet flame of rage, and a mass of black energy rolled and struggled between her brows, as if trying to break out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bansheng embraced her daughter with a sense of sudden realization, muttering softly: \"It’s okay, it’s okay...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But how could it be okay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despair and confusion were etched on Su Jing’s face, as she suddenly felt this mortal world was meaningless without him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scarlet light in her pupils grew brighter and brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until a fire lotus emerged, turning the white silk binding Su Jing and Baili An to ashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing struggled to push her mother away, stubbornly holding Baili An’s cold body, repeating the jump off the cliff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was someone in her way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Guanhai stood in the middle of the path, blocking her way to the Snow Cliff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing lowered her head, eyes red, preparing to sidestep her father in silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Guanhai’s dark gaze fell on Baili An’s pale and quiet face. He did not stop Su Jing’s actions, but sighed: \"The water below is very cold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stubborn footsteps halted abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Baili An’s health has always been poor, he fears the cold in winter. Are you sure you want to take him into that icy water below?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if you can’t hold onto him? What if he’s swept away by the current to even more distant places, and you never see him again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing held onto Baili An, collapsed powerlessly on the ground, as if enveloped in a nightmare, with a deathly aura devoid of any vibrant life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Guanhai’s brows furrowed slightly, carrying a hint of pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he hid the emotions within under a guise of senior composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He calmly squatted down, taking Baili An’s body from Su Jing’s arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing did not struggle or fight back, letting him take the body away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Guanhai carried Baili An towards the main hall and said indifferently, \"My lady, prepare a coffin for this child, and then... send someone to Tianxi Sword Sect and Central Netherworld. We must be ready to face the coming wrath of the Sword Master and Houtu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bansheng slowly raised her hand, as if wanting to touch Baili An’s cold and pale cheek, but just as she was about to, her eyes widened suddenly, then dropped weakly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First bow to the heavens and the earth!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the wedding banquet, the place was decorated with lanterns, red silk everywhere, and the sound of drums echoed throughout Jiuyuan Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the mountains, a hundred Spiritual Cranes circled to welcome the newlyweds, and the guests were all renowned figures from the Immortal Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The groom, Zheng Siyan, wore a beaming smile full of joy, his spirit vibrant, glancing with spring-like elation at the young girl covered under the red veil on the other end of the red ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the high seats behind him sat his parents and the esteemed millennial Immortal, the Palace Master of Cangwu Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled, bowing towards the heavens and the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The praises and cheers around him suddenly paused, turning into countless hushed whispers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Siyan’s heart skipped a beat as he looked to the side, seeing the bride’s slender back standing straight, showing no intention of bowing in ceremony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elders on both sides frowned slightly in displeasure, Yin Dufeng, holding his wife’s memorial tablet, sternly scolded, \"Shuang’er.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To his surprise, the response was a jade hand lifting the red veil by herself, the pearls on the phoenix crown ringing like clear springs, producing a crisp sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The large red veil fluttered to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s makeup was perfect, her bridal dress like fire, standing out like the rising sun at dawn, with a pearlescent glow under her hair bun at her white neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s makeup was resplendent, her brows lightly adorned, lips subtly marked, her cheeks touched with a faint blush at the most beautiful moment, yet the bride seemed shrouded in a black, abyss-like aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meeting that gaze, Zheng Siyan felt slightly uneasy in his heart. Remembering something, he forcibly calmed himself, smiling slightly, \"Don’t forget what you promised me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin Baishuang’s eyes held neither joy nor sorrow, her pupils deep, she spoke calmly, \"Want to complete the marriage ceremony?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Siyan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you haven’t given me the antidote you promised.\" Yin Baishuang’s gaze was deep and cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Siyan’s face instantly changed drastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin Dufeng, seated above, sensed something amiss and said with a solemn expression, \"What antidote?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the guests, whispers quickly spread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s happening? It seems like the bride doesn’t sincerely want to marry this Young Master of the Ghost Sect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you foolish? This little princess of Cangwu Palace is only sixteen years old, yet her Cultivation Realm is already at the Origin Opening stage. Such a genius is far beyond Zheng Siyan’s league.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then why is she wearing the bridal attire?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn’t you hear earlier? She’s demanding the antidote from the Ghost Sect’s Young Master. It seems he indeed resorted to something despicable, likely poisoning the bride to force her!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No wonder. A Heavenly Immortal like her, how could a mere Ghost Sect’s power reach so far?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Siyan’s face turned bright red with embarrassment, his gaze toward Yin Baishuang hidden with dark threats: \"Don’t forget our agreement! Don’t cause trouble!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the word \"agreement,\" and seeing Zheng Siyan’s angry and ashamed demeanor, Yin Dufeng’s expression turned completely dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This daughter of mine, I’ve always cherished, never saying a harsh word since her birth. Yet now, without even completing the marriage ceremony, you dare to threaten her with your vile words. This wedding... might as well not happen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin Dufeng had always been one to hold his ground firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, judging from his daughter’s words, it seemed the truth was indeed something as abhorrent as using drugs for coercion.
