Countless times, for her sake, he abandoned Buddha and all living beings, forgetting the grand aspirations in his heart.

There were countless moments when, for her sake, he felt that all the arduous cultivation he had undergone in this life was nothing. In fact, what did it matter that they all said that ten thousand years of cultivation was not easy?

Where can anything compare to her gentle smile?

Even if ten thousand years of cultivation are destroyed, even if this body is no longer connected with Buddhism or suffering beings, even if the great vow in my heart can never be fulfilled...

At this moment, he only wanted to indulge himself once, for the deepest shadow in his heart and for the woman he loved most.

Shi Chan suddenly opened his eyes and looked down. He saw that the two people dressed in wedding clothes had already walked to the high platform at the end of the long street and were about to bow down to the statue of Chi You behind the offering table.

As if he had already made up his mind, Shi Chan's brows relaxed, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips. Then, he moved swiftly and swooped down.

At that time, on the city wall of the City of Gods and Demons, ten demon generals and their demon soldiers were drinking and making merry with wine brought by the people of the city. They were only on guard against a large-scale invasion by righteous disciples, so no one noticed Shi Chan, and naturally no one stopped him.

So Shi Chan landed smoothly on the long street, causing a chorus of surprised and puzzled voices.

"Liuli..." Shi Chan looked at her slender figure on the high platform, his gaze gentle and smiling, and softly called out her name.

His voice was too low and was quickly drowned out by the noise of the street, so he had to raise his voice and shout, "Liuli!"

The sound made Liuli stiffen. After a moment, she suddenly lifted her red veil and threw it on the ground, then turned to look in the direction from which the sound came.

Then she saw his tall, thin figure, who remained calm and composed amidst the demons, showing no fear whatsoever.

Looking at the astonished Liuli from afar, Shi Chan spoke gently with a smile, raising his voice and calling out, "Liuli, am I too late? Would you still like to come with me?"

Why wouldn't I want to?

The expression on Liuli's face changed from astonishment to excitement, and then from excitement to joy. Her eyes glistened with tears.

As soon as Shi Chan's voice came, Li Molin stopped. At that moment, he clasped his hands together, bent his back slightly, and was about to bow down to the Chi You demon statue with Liu Li.

With that bow, she became his wife.

But he still came.

As Li Molin sensed Liu Li's movement, the joy on his face gradually faded, replaced by a deep sadness that crept into his eyes.

"Liuli, you won't leave, right?" Li Molin didn't turn to look at her. He was afraid that seeing the joy on her face when she looked at Shi Chan would hurt his heart, so he just asked this question softly, hoping that she would stay, that she would stay for him.

Liuli turned to look at Li Molin and saw the deep sorrow on his profile, her heart aching. The person she had wronged most in her life was Li Molin.

But after a long silence, she could only say in a very low voice, "I'm sorry, Li Molin."

Li Molin's still-stiff figure swayed slightly, the sorrow in his eyes too deep, too desolate.

At that moment, the noise on the long street was gradually subsiding. Everyone on the street was looking at Li Molin, who was motionless on the high platform, and Liuli, who had already thrown away her red veil, and then at the gray-robed monk on the street, whispering among themselves.

Yu Ke had been watching the platform the whole time. When he noticed Liu Li taking a step as if she was about to step down, his expression turned cold. His voice was icy as he shouted, "What are you all standing there for? Kill this monk who dares to disturb His Majesty's joyous occasion!"

"I'd like to see who dares to lay a finger on him and hurt him in the slightest!!"

A sharp shout from Liuli on the high platform deepened the sorrow in Li Molin's eyes. He slowly withdrew his hand, straightened up, but did not immediately turn around, nor did he look at Liuli.

Liuli turned to look at Li Molin and said apologetically in a low voice, "Li Molin, I, Liuli, owe you so much. I'm afraid I can't repay you in this life. I'm sorry. If there is an afterlife, I will do my best to repay you for everything I owe you."

With that, she lightly touched the ground with her toes and flew up, leaving Li Molin's side.

Li Molin's figure remained frozen in place.

Liuli quickly descended to Shichan's side, and Shichan smiled gently upon seeing her arrival.
