Chapter Seventy-Four

  This is a world where humans and demons coexist!

  The human world is guarded by the Xuanxin Orthodox Church, while the demon world is dominated by the Yin Yue Imperial Court. Unfortunately, since ancient times, the human and demon worlds have been like fire and water, and the gates of the Yin Yue Imperial Palace are open to the human world. At that time, the master of the demon world, Liu Dao Sheng Jun, hoped that one day he could unify the two realms of humans and demons.

  The Six Saints seek talent as if thirsty, hoping to find virtuous and talented scholars in the mortal world; through this, they can understand the various phenomena of the human world and make preparations for unifying the world in the future.

  One day, the wise man of the Yin Moon Dynasty, Mirror Wuyuan, brought a person named Zhuge Qingtian to meet the Six Paths Saint. Zhuge Qingtian was a good friend that Mirror Wuyuan had met in the mortal world and was known for his vast knowledge and unique insights into both humans and demons.

  At the annual conference of the Yin Yue Imperial Court, Mirror Wuyuan recommended Zhuge Qingtian to the Six Dao Sacred Lord: "Sacred Lord, Brother Zhuge has a unique understanding of the distinction between humans and demons; I have brought Brother Zhuge back to the Yin Yue Imperial Court specifically for this purpose, in the hope that he can dispel your confusion."

  Zhuge Qingtian once said that there is no difference between humans and demons; the only question is how deeply you love, how true your love is. If you have ever loved someone unconditionally, wholeheartedly devoted to a relationship, then you will understand that humans and demons are actually the same.

  Nie Xiaoqian said as she gazed out at this place, a hint of longing appeared on her beautiful small face.

  "Xiao Qian, why didn't you continue to tell the story? What happened next?" The four wise men of Mo Gong and Di Long Tan Zi, who were listening to the story on the side, couldn't help but ask in unison.

  "Exactly!" said the hungry ghost with a hint of dissatisfaction: "Xiao Qian, you're telling the story halfway and then stopping; aren't you intentionally teasing people's appetite?"

  Wu Jian also nodded and urged: "Xiao Qian, you quickly continue to speak!"

  At this time, the people of the Yin Yue Imperial Court had no idea that Zhuge Qingtian was actually a spy sent by the Xuanxin Zhengzong sect to infiltrate the Yin Yue Imperial Court. His goal was to divide all the people in the Yin Yue Imperial Court.

  Zhuge Qingtian's words were like a spark that ignited the entire Yin Yue Imperial Court, burning one by one the pure hearts of its people. This flame of true love gradually spread and engulfed the entire imperial court. However, what Zhuge Qingtian never expected was that this fire of love would ultimately burn himself.

  At that time, Jing Wuyan also had a younger sister named Blue Demon. This Blue Demon had stunning beauty; even using the descriptions of "drowning fish and falling geese" or "closing the moon and making flowers ashamed" would not be enough to describe one-tenth of Blue Demon's true appearance.

  Zhuge Qingtian's stay in the Yin Yue Imperial Court was initially marked by a prickly relationship with Blue Demon, but over time it evolved into a romance, as the wise scholar from the mortal realm fell in love with the first beauty of the Yin Yue Imperial Court - Blue Demon!

  This is the first romance between the Yin Moon Empire and the human world, but humans and demons are destined not to fall in love; when Blue Demon and Zhuge Qingtian's human-demon romance began, it was also the beginning of tragedy.

  When love comes, you may not realize it's there; but when it's gone, you'll definitely know it existed!

  Zhuge Qingtian unexpectedly went from being hypocritical and insincere at first to actually developing true feelings for Lán Mó in the end; he fell in love with that beautiful, pure, and innocent woman who was like a fairy, and this also marked the beginning of his downfall.

  In the end, Lan Mo discovered Zhuge Qingtian's true identity but chose to love him anyway; quietly letting Zhuge Qingtian sneak away from the Yin Yue Imperial Court.

  However, Blue Demon was unaware that Zhuge Qingtian's departure would be followed by a shocking and earth-shaking war, as the Xuanxin Sect officially declared war on the Yin Yue Imperial Court.

  In this war, the Six Saints were killed on the spot, and the Queen of Yin Yue was seriously injured. Moreover, at that time, the Queen of Yin Yue was also pregnant, and another tragic story unfolded again.

  Lanmo was thus imprisoned in the Cold Palace, locked away in a place where she would never see the light of day in the Yin Yue Imperial Court. Zhuge Qingtian began her days of fleeing and being pursued by the Xuanxin Orthodox Sect, but despite this, neither of them had given up on each other; Lanmo and Zhuge Qingtian still believed that one day they would be together.

  …………

  Lan Mo's devotion to love, Zhuge Qing Tian's persistence in love; finally transformed into the 'Tears of Lan Mo' that can distinguish true love!

  This time it wasn't just Nie Xiaoqian who was crying, but also Wu Jian, Egui, Dilong Tanzi and others whose eyes were all red; one by one, they were all moved by this story.

  "Waaa... I'm so touched!" The hungry ghost rubbed his nose, and as a man, he actually cried miserably.

  "Ah, yeah!" Nian Xiaoqian said with a mix of tears and snot: "Unfortunately, this Blue Demon's notebook doesn't have the ending of Blue Demon and Zhuge Qingtian; nor do I know if those two are still alive in some corner of this world."

  Wu Jian raised an eyebrow and said: "Xiao Qian, do you really want to know the final outcome of Lan Mo and Zhuge Qingtian?"

  Zhou Shi lovingly patted Wang Xifeng's hand and said softly, "My child, so you already knew."

  Originally, Mr. and Mrs. Wang had not intended to conceal the truth from Wang Xifeng, and now that she already knew, it saved them the trouble of having to explain further.

  The old master exchanged a look with his wife, then asked with a hint of meaning: "Feng'er, since you already know about this matter, I won't hide it from you. Your second uncle has arranged a marriage for you in the capital; the groom's family is the Jia family, your great aunt's husband's family. Your great uncle's older brother has an eldest son named Jia Yuanchun; he's around your age and quite handsome."

  Mr. Wang briefly told Xue that Jia Lian was a young man of good family, and then asked him what he meant.

  "Feng'er, your father and mother have already discussed this matter; as for this marriage, both your father and mother are extremely satisfied; I don't know what you think, Feng'er?" Mr. Wang said to Xue Baochai with a warm face.

  It turns out that Mr. Wang and his wife, Mrs. Zhou, really doted on Wang Xifeng; surprisingly, even in this matter of marriage, Mr. Wang would ask for his daughter's opinion. It should be known that matters of marriage are decided by the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words; it has always been up to the parents to decide, when did one ever get to express their own opinions?

  Why else would this Lord Wang and Madame Zhou treat their daughter like she's their very own life?

  "Father, is this Jia family in the capital?"

  Wang Xifeng's heart moved, she had already inquired clearly; this Xuanxin Zhengzong was in the capital, if she had the opportunity to go to the capital; wouldn't that mean that there would be an opportunity for revenge in the future?

  Unexpectedly, Wang Xifeng's words were misunderstood by Old Master Wang: "Hehe... Feng'er, you don't have to worry too much. Although this Jia family is in the capital, there is your second uncle here. If Jia Baoyu dares to bully you in the future, your second uncle will naturally take charge for you."

  "Right! Right! Right!"

  Zhou also nodded and echoed, "Feng'er, your second uncle has some real power in his hands in the capital; even if it's the old lady of the Jia family, she must give your second uncle a few points of respect. With your second uncle supporting you, don't be afraid that someone will dare to bully you."

  Damn it!

  Master Wang and Madam Zhou, your daughter is still unmarried, can you really teach her like this?

  Ping'er stood quietly by, though she didn't say a word; in her heart, however, she was secretly worried about the future son-in-law of her own family and silently shook her head with a sigh.

  Alas... I've got a pair of unscrupulous in-laws, and a wife who's useless whether it comes to combat or resistance; the future son-in-law is going to have a tough time.

  Ping'er silently lit a candle in her heart for her future brother-in-law - mourning in silence!

  Wang Xifeng had already made up her mind, but she still tilted her head and glanced at Old Master Wang and Madame Zhou with a smile, saying: "So, Father and Mother, do you think I should agree to this marriage or not?"

  The ball was kicked back to Wang Xifeng's hands by Wang Lao Ye and Zhou Shi couple.

  "Need I say more? If you let such a good marriage opportunity slip away, you'll regret it later!"

  Mr. Wang heard Wang Xifeng ask him like this, and he thought that Wang Xifeng disagreed with discussing the marriage between Jia Yuanchun and Baoyu; in his anxiety, his voice became a little louder than usual.

  Zhou's wife glared at her husband with a scowl, saying in an ill-tempered tone: "Old man, look at you, at your age and still so impulsive; didn't you hear that Feng'er is just teasing you on purpose?"

  The old master looked up and saw that his own beautiful daughter was smiling at him with pursed lips!

  "You little devil, you've even fooled your father." Old Master Wang couldn't help but laugh and scold at the same time, but on his face was more doting affection for Wang Xifeng.

  Wang Xifeng is really quite satisfied with her current life, if she had to have any dissatisfaction; it's just that the human body is a bit too fragile compared to the demon clan.

  What made her most satisfied was the couple, Wang Dafu and Madame Zhou; when she was still a nine-tailed fox spirit, Qingling, her parents had already passed away; in fact, this nine-tailed fox spirit was an orphan; after occupying Wang Xifeng's body, Wang Xifeng enjoyed the love of parents that she had not experienced for hundreds of years on Wang Dafu and Madame Zhou.

  It was precisely because she was considering both Mr. Wang and Madame Zhou that Wang Xifeng did not come up with a solution that would satisfy both parties, so she was willing to stay in the backyard for the time being.

  "Now that you, Feng'er, have no objections to this marriage, your mother and I can start preparing the gifts needed for our trip to the capital." Zhou Shi said warmly, looking at Wang Xifeng with a loving expression.

  "It's really unfilial of me to let Mother and Father worry so much about my daughter's affairs; Mother, Father, you have worked hard." Wang Xifeng said emotionally to Mr. and Mrs. Wang.

  "What a silly child!"

  Mr. Wang's face was filled with relief and delight, hehe... his own daughter had finally grown up into a capable adult, looking at the sensible Wang Xifeng now; Mr. Wang's eyes also reddened with emotion.
