Zhan Nishang’s words made Lou Guxiu’s expression turn bad. He stepped forward and warned in a low voice.

“There are some things that should be said and some things have to go through your brain before being said. Otherwise… the brain would be useless.”

Zhan Nishang seemed to have calmed down. Her face did not change color and she was extremely quiet which made Qi Yan feel bad for a while.

“Qi Yan ah… The brother next door who I have longed for since I was a child…”

“It seems that you are still unwilling to be the sect leader’s wife.” Lou Guxiu shook his sleeves and said resolutely: “When you go back, I will give you a divorce letter.”

Cracks finally appeared on Zhan Nishang’s seemingly calm face. She looked at Lou Guxiu and Qi Yan with rage filled eyes, trembling with anger.

“You… go against common decency, it’s disgusting!”

“Nishang, it’s not what you think…”

“Shut up! I thought you had always adored me. Seeing me getting married, I thought you were afraid that I would have a hard time, so you told me that you see me as a sister… Unexpectedly, you actually eyed my husband! Doing such things that ruins your ancestors and destroy your own virtue! Shameless!”

“Shut up!” Lou Guxiu couldn’t listen anymore. He grabbed Zhan Nishang’s neck with a slight force, causing Zhan Nishang’s face to turn red and her eyes rolled.

Seeing this, Qi Yan hurriedly ran over to stop it. If Lou Guxiu killed Zhan Nishang at the Demon Slaying Stage, it would be a big deal!

Although Zhan Nishang had been removed from the genealogy, she still had the reputation as a decent person in other people’s hearts. If something happened at this time, Qi Yan’s task would not be completed. It would also be difficult for Lou Guxiu to get out of Xingyun Peak which was full of righteous cultivators.

Lou Guxiu slowed down when Qi Yan’s hand covered the back of his own. In the end, Qi Yan pried his hand from Zhan Nishang’s neck, sparing her life.

“Do you still like her?” Lou Guxiu raised his eyebrows and asked.

Qi Yan looked at Zhan Nishang who was coughing on the ground, shook his head, and said in a flat voice: “I said a long time ago, I treat her like a sister.”

“But she doesn’t think so.” Lou Guxiu shook his head amusedly: “This woman thinks too much and expects too much.”

“Then why do you want to marry her?” Qi Yan fought back unexpectedly.

“I’ll divorce her when I go back, huh?” Lou Guxiu looked at him ambiguously with  his voice rising at the end, extremely charming.

Qi Yan’s face flushed slightly, but instead of looking at him, he squatted down, staring at Zhan Nishang in the same mood as before.

“Nishang, when I met Lou Guxiu, it was when I broke into the demon sect to see if you were doing well.”

Zhan Nishang’s gaze were dull and Qi Yan could see a little watery light in them.

“You’ve been mistreated since you were a child. I don’t have the ability to do anything for you. I thought at the time, whether it’s the evil or the righteous path, as long as they can protect you and treat you well, I won’t have to worry about you anymore.”

“It’s a pity that as far as I remember, I have never seen the sect leader who took you up the mountain.”

“I only met a little servant. He led the way for me and brought me food.”

“I stayed in the Demon Sect for three full days. For these three days, that little servant took care of me.”

“I learned from the little servant that you are doing very well and that the sect leader will marry you officially, I believe it. Because through the little servant, I believe that the people of the Demon Sect are not so bad.”

“After three days of getting along, the thoughts of separation made me realize that I had feelings for a little servant. I couldn’t accept it, but I had to accept it.”

“I’m not a cut sleeve, but I like men and I deserve to be scorned.”

“I always thought he was a little servant. But on the day of your wedding, I found this little servant standing in the position of the groom.”

“I didn’t know how I left the Demon Sect, but I know that since the little guy is the leader, he will definitely treat you well.”

“Nishang, for hiding it from you, I’m sorry.”

……

Zhan Nishang had already burst into tears and hearing Qi Yan’s words made her feel distressed and sad.

Until now, Qi Yan was her motivation to live. No matter how much she was bullied, the thought that there was still a man who would look after herself and taking care of herself made Zhan Nishang’s heart a little more hopeful.

When her spirit root showed, her first thought was that she was worthy of Qi Yan and that she could finally be with him.

When she was taken away by Lou Guxiu, she was afraid that Qi Yan would misunderstand and not seeing Qi Yan from beginning to end made her desperate.

Little did she know, Qi Yan stayed in the Demon Sect for three days for her.

Everything was a misunderstanding, a mistake.

What about her? What about Qi Yan? What about Lou Guxiu?

Confused by this twine-like relationship, Zhan Nishang cried and shook her head.

Helpless and at a loss, Zhan Nishang’s appearance was even more wretched, even more pitiful.

Qi Yan was silent. Lou Guxiu was resolutely silent.

The other families were evacuated, only the Zhan family and the Qi family were still there on the demon slaying stage.

The battle between Zhan Guyao and Qi Qianxing continued while Zhan Roudai sat paralyzed, the shadow of her hanging head covered her face.

Gradually, Zhan Nishang stopped crying. She wiped away her tears and looked at Qi Yan with a dull expression. After a while, she stretched out her hand and touched his face.

“My greatest wish in my life is to marry you… Unfortunately, I can’t get what I want.”

“Nishang……”

“Hehe… Ha, in the end, you still call me Nishang, as if nothing changed.” Zhan Nishang smiled bitterly, tears running down the corners of her eyes.

“Also, maybe it’s me who has changed, not you.”

——It was me who changed my mind from the beginning. Unwilling to lose you, unwilling to get Lou Guxiu’s attention, unwilling to be ignored and neglected by the Zhan family, trying to please left and right… but got nothing.

“Brother Qi Yan, you are not the one who was strange, you will not be spurned. You are the best person in the world.”

“Nishang, what do you…want to do?”

Qi Yan had a bad feeling and asked in a trembling voice.

“Brother Qi Yan.” Zhan Nishang chuckled lightly, no longer shedding tears. She suddenly asked.

“If there is an afterlife, will you marry me?”

Qi Yan pursed his lips, not knowing how to answer.

Seeing him like this, Zhan Nishang shook her head helplessly and said, “I knew that you are the worst at lying…”

——But it’s okay to lie to me……

Qi Yan was silent. He was in a very chaotic mood now. Zhan Nishang was obviously explaining the aftermath1交代后事: Explain what happened afterwards. A person is about to die, so it is necessary to explain all matters after death, such as how to distribute property, where to be buried, and so on.. Could it be possible that she was going to commit suicide?

His nerves tightened all at once. The entire mission would fail at the moment of the heroine’s death. No matter what, the heroine could not be allowed to die!

While thinking about it, the white shirt suddenly flashed in front of him. Before Qi Yan had time to see clearly, she quickly ran towards the edge of the cliff of Xingyun Peak.

Lou Guxiu’s expression was cold. He was about to chase after her, but he saw Qi Yan one step ahead of him.

Qi Yan, who stood up and rushed, used his true qi, hoping that the speed would be faster. If Zhan Nishang was determined to die, this task would collapse!

Unexpectedly, Zhan Nishang also used real qi. When the white figure plunged into the cliff, Qi Yan widened his eyes and stretched out his hand to grab it. Unfortunately, he was a step late and only touched a corner of the clothes.

“Nishang–!”

The situation was urgent, Qi Yan couldn’t care about anything else and jumped down with Zhan Nishang in front of everyone.

The gloomy wind from the bottom of the cliff hit the face as if mixed with ice ballast, it was very cold.

Qi Yan regretted it the moment he jumped down. The heroine in the original novel discovered the valley and lived in seclusion when she jumped down! If he jumped down by himself, he would really die!

Before the wailing in his heart came, suddenly there was a sound different from the whistling wind. Before Qi Yan could recover, he was surrounded by a dark embrace.

“You want to die with her, have you got my consent, huh?”
