[As night fell...]
[The Bai family estate was brightly lit; the marriage of the family head’s sister was a top priority.]
[Everyone was bustling with activity.]
[In her bridal chamber, Bai Miao Leng had finished dressing and adorning herself.]
[She looked at her reflection in the mirror, a satisfied smile playing on her lips.]
[A flash of light appeared...]
[And Bai Yuben’s figure materialized behind her.] frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
[“Master, are you truly going to marry that man?”]
[Bai Miao Leng didn’t turn around, continuing to admire herself in the mirror.]
[“Why not?”]
[Bai Yuben raised his head slightly, feeling a moment of disorientation.]
[Sixty years ago, when he first met Ye Yu, Bai Miao Leng had been there as well.]
[Strictly speaking...]
[If not for Bai Miao Leng’s command...]
[Bai Yuben would have waited until Jiao Mandao killed Ye Yu before intervening.]
[All the talk of “catching him off guard” and “Lucky Charm” were just excuses.]
[Even the later invitation for Ye Yu to join the Bai family...]
[Had been at Bai Miao Leng’s behest.]
[Bai Yuben had pondered all of this endlessly.]
[He simply couldn’t understand why Bai Miao Leng was so invested in Ye Yu.]
[He was even more perplexed by her sudden decision to marry him.]
[Just that morning, Bai Yuben had known nothing.]
[The supposed marriage alliance with another family had completely blindsided him.]
[Thinking back on it...]
[It was likely a story his master had concocted.]
[“But, Master, is this truly appropriate given your identity?”]
[After a moment’s hesitation, Bai Yuben asked in a low voice, “May I ask why?”]
[Bai Miao Leng’s hand stilled as she combed her hair.]
[In the next instant...]
[A dark, eerie energy shot through Bai Yuben’s body.]
[He spat a mouthful of blood on the spot, collapsing to the ground in agony.]
[Bai Miao Leng’s tone was cold as she said, “Who are you to question me? Remember, you’re nothing more than a dog I keep.”]
[“And a dog doesn’t ask why. Understand?”]
[Bai Yuben struggled to his feet, nodding repeatedly.]
[Bai Miao Leng suddenly smiled.]
[“Cheer up. Don’t look so morose. By your mortal customs, today is my wedding day, after all.”]
[“As my brother, you must be happy for me.”]
[Bai Yuben wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and forced a smile.]
[Half an hour later...]
[The wedding ceremony officially began.]
[In the presence of the entire Bai family, Ye Yu and Bai Miao Leng completed the marriage ceremony.]
[Afterward, they were escorted to the bridal chamber.]
[Ye Yu lifted Bai Miao Leng’s veil, finding her even more stunning.]
[He couldn’t help but marvel inwardly at how smoothly this dream was going.]
[There hadn’t been any real setbacks...]
[Which left Ye Yu feeling a bit unaccustomed to it.]
[But none of that mattered.]
[Because he had far more important things to do!]
[That night...]
[The battle was intense.]
[By the age of 85, Ye Yu had yet to break through to the mid-stage of the Tribulation Crossing realm, but he was on the verge. He believed it wouldn’t be long.]
[In recent years...]
[Ye Yu and Bai Miao Leng had been inseparable, their love flourishing.]
[Life was, in a word, delightful.]
[The only minor disappointment was that the Bai family no longer had any new forbidden techniques for Ye Yu to study.]
