"Demon Lord, the wedding..."

"Wait a little longer, and tell them that I am in seclusion."

"It's already dragged on for too long; if it continues, I'm afraid..."

"That old fox, humph."

"Then, I'll go right away..."

"Go, give the order that no one is to disturb them."

"yes."

There were no demonic troops guarding the entrance to the human world.

She was either transferred elsewhere, or it was a deliberate decision to let her leave.

Xiang Wan understood; she had no choice but to go.

A familiar feeling washed over me. As dusk fell, I flew over the great canyon and drifted through the dense forest, finally arriving at that familiar cave entrance.

There was still a barrier at the entrance of the cave, but it looked rather weak.

Xiang Wan easily walked in and saw countless scorched marks and fallen mud and rocks.

The footprints were numerous and chaotic, and the further they went in, the faster Xiang Wan's heart pounded.

Deep inside the cave, large sections had collapsed, and several charred bones were so charred that they turned to dust with the slightest footstep.

In the lotus pond, countless white bones turned to ashes as Xiang Wan walked by, creating a vortex of air.

Beads, a purple unicorn, dark flames, and a beautiful woman!

She remembered everything; the beauty had once told her that his name was Ling Yanze!

The beauty also said that he and she depended on each other for survival!

She used her last bit of strength to give the bead to the beauty, but why did she wake up in the Demon Palace of the Dark Flame?

Where has the beauty gone? Why don't you come looking for her?

Thinking of that cool yet warm embrace, Xiang Wan suddenly felt very lonely.

In the few days they spent together, Xiang Wan always liked to stare at the beauty's brows, trying to figure out why he was so lonely.

Now she understands. Because she had been there for him, there was a place for him in her heart. If it suddenly becomes empty, even if she had the whole world, she could not fill the void in her heart!

The person in the beauty's heart is Mingyan!

Despite her reluctance to admit it, Xiang Wan felt a little uncomfortable.

She couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong with her.

The celestial realm is not so easy to reach.

Heavenly soldiers patrolled everywhere, and guards stood at the entrance.

Xiang Wan had seen people enter and exit with a token in hand, but she didn't have one!

After thinking for a moment, Xiang Wan turned around and transformed into the appearance of a beautiful woman, concealing her aura.

"Your Highness!"

"Um."

Xiang Wan nodded slightly, mimicking the beauty's manner, and nodded to the guarding heavenly soldiers before walking straight inside.

"Isn't His Highness being punished?"

"Perhaps there are other things to take care of."

"Despite enduring heavenly lightning, Your Highness's elegance remains undiminished."

"As expected of the eldest son of the Heavenly Emperor, his demeanor alone is worthy of our respect."

"That's right."

Tianbing's words gave Xiang Wan a bad feeling.

How could a beauty be punished?

Where exactly is the Heavenly Thunder Execution Ground?

"My lord, please follow me."

An elderly man stopped Xiang Wan and led her aside.

"You must be that little fox?"

Xiang Wan instantly became alert, intending to run away at the slightest provocation.

"Don't panic, I'm not here to cause you trouble. His Highness is in a bad situation right now, you've come at the right time, I'll take you to see him."

"Who are you?"

"Who I am is not important. What is important is that you persuade His Highness to stop arguing with the Heavenly Emperor. This will not benefit anyone."

How do I know if what you're saying is true?

Believe it or not, it's up to you. Your Highness is still waiting.

After the old man finished speaking, he left. Xiang Wan hesitated for a moment, then followed him.

They avoided many patrolling heavenly soldiers along the way and gradually arrived at a place where oppressive power was rampant.

The beautiful woman was bound to a stone pillar by chains, standing with her head bowed, her body covered with countless charred marks that spread from her neck to her ankles.

"No one will be here for a while, you can go now."

After the old man finished speaking, he disappeared.

He took a slow step, as if weighing a ton.

Is this still the same beauty she first met? Is this scarred man alright?

The closer she got, the more Xiang Wan felt the pain in her heart, along with a strange sense of familiarity that grew stronger and stronger.

"Don't come any closer!"

The beauty's voice was hoarse and low, as if she had endured too much suffering and was unable to express it.

Xiang Wan's tears streamed down her face, a feeling of heartache washing over her entire body.

"Don't come any closer, lightning is coming soon."

"beauty……"

Her choked voice could no longer utter any more syllables.

The beauty slowly raised her head, and the unfamiliar look in her eyes stung Xiang Wan.

"My beauty, are you alright?"

He stretched out his fingers, wanting to touch but not daring to. Even receiving a disdainful look from the beauty would be better than the current unfamiliarity.

"So, in your heart, you've always called me 'Beauty'!"

The beauty smiled, as if she had never suffered any punishment.

Such a beauty made Xiang Wan feel even more sorry for her.

Why don't you come to find me?

The beautiful woman avoided answering and turned her head to the side.

"Did he send you?"

"Why did you abandon me? Didn't we promise to depend on each other for survival?"

Xiang Wan was a little angry. What was wrong with the beauty? As soon as they met, she talked about someone else. It was a waste that she ran to him as soon as her memory returned.

"Ha, you've grown up, you don't need me to accompany you anymore."

"I was so young back then, how could you abandon me? Do you know that you were all I had? I truly considered you my partner and believed every word you said. Why did you leave me with someone else without even saying goodbye?"
