But today was their wedding day, and he restrained himself. He wanted to make her happy and didn't want to bring up those unpleasant things.

He once said that he was willing to believe in God again for her sake.

Even if the gods were indifferent, even if the demons reached out to him again, there was nothing else in his eyes but her.

His master tried every means to get him to call her "mother," but how could he possibly say it?

From the very beginning, he regarded her as his wife.

"Master, it will be dark soon," she said, her thin, rosy lips curving slightly, her peach-blossom eyes revealing an affection that seemed to intoxicate.

Bi Xie didn't see his captivating eyes, but just hearing his low, husky voice made her weak in the knees. She wrapped her arms around his neck and remained silent, her face actually as red as a ripe tomato.

They rushed back to Xuanhuo Peak, and Bi Xie was carried directly into the room and gently placed on the soft bed.

She sat up abruptly, her face flushed as she looked at the man with a beaming smile. Although it wasn't her first marriage, she was still inexplicably shy, probably because of their different social statuses.

She was his master, and in this world, a master-disciple relationship is taboo.

Bi Xie pursed his lips, his face burning under Ji Gui's gaze: "Ji Gui, stop staring at me. It's not like I haven't seen you before..."

“Master is handsome, especially handsome today,” he suddenly squatted down, his gaze level with hers, face to face, eyes to eyes, the color in his peach blossom eyes was so captivating.

Bi Xie was stunned for a moment, then his nose was suddenly brushed.

“My wife, we are married now, you should call me… husband,” he uttered the last two words softly, drawing out the last syllable, which made Bi Xie’s face blush even more.

Bi Xie's eyes flickered, and he tilted his head slightly to avoid his captivating black eyes, stubbornly saying, "It depends on my mood. I don't want to shout right now."

Looking at her like this, Ji Gui's smile deepened. His master was really adorable.

He couldn't resist reaching out and cupping the back of her head, forcing her gaze to meet his, and coaxing, "My dear wife, call me that. Don't be shy in front of your husband. It's just the two of us here. Call me 'husband,' and I'll be gentle with you later..."

Bi Xie suddenly realized something, his face turned a deep shade of liver, and he glared at him angrily: "You shameless bastard!"

Ji Gui chuckled, his clear laughter gently pressing her head back as she tried to turn away. "If I cared about my reputation, how could I have married a master as aloof as an immortal?"

The word "Master" stirred something within Bi Xie, yet he wouldn't let her look away. So, he caught her flustered and embarrassed gaze, and then gave a soft smile.

"My wife, call out to your husband, and I'll give you a surprise, how about it?" His shimmering peach blossom eyes gleamed, revealing a mischievous intent in his gaze.

Bi Xie recalled the same innocent expression she had when he lured her to witness Wen Zhu and Jian Shui's affair, and immediately became wary, saying, "No."

To everyone's surprise, this shameless man actually curled his lips and deliberately misinterpreted her meaning: "What? Master wants it? Fine, I'll suffer a little loss and show Master a surprise first, then I'll hear Master call me husband."

His expression, as if he had suffered a great loss, made Bi Xie's lips twitch.

Ru Hua was getting impatient: "Host, why don't you just go for it? Such a good opportunity, why are you blushing? Just pounce on the big boss, or even half-heartedly accept it, but you... sigh, you're such an experienced driver, yet you still can't drive steadily..."

Bi Xie's face darkened: "What do you know? The big boss likes this kind of thing. You better get back to your original self and don't look at what you shouldn't be looking at."

Ru Hua: "Alright, then host, good luck! Tonight you must increase the big boss's happiness level! Host is the hope of the whole village, sob sob~"

Just as Bi Xie was about to complain about this damn system that only cared about happiness points and didn't care about her morals at all, Ji Gui suddenly turned around with his zither, startling her so much that she quickly blinked.

He was holding a green zither in his arms, the very one that Bi Xie had seen in the picture.

"Enter the gate of my longing, and you will know the bitterness of my longing. Let me play a poem about the autumn wind for you, my wife."

As the last note faded, the music began, and instantly an invisible domain, like a spider web, began to coil and solidify.

A man in a red robe sat on the ground, his peerless beauty and charm radiating an otherworldly allure. He lightly plucked the strings of his zither with fluid grace, his long eyelashes fluttering occasionally, and the gleam in his peach blossom eyes resembling that of a seductive spider lily.

Looking at that stunningly beautiful face, Bi Xie couldn't help but gasp when he occasionally looked up and smiled at her, thinking to herself, "A devil!"

"When will we meet again, my love? This night, I am filled with unbearable longing!"

"Enter the gate of my longing, and you will know the bitterness of my longing."

"My longing for you is endless, yet my memories of you are boundless..."

A mournful and poignant melody expressing longing, in the hands of this demon, made Bi Xie hear a hint of courtship.

Bi Xie: "..."

Lost in the music, Bi Xie didn't notice that the whole room had darkened, and the roof was like a sky with crystal-like stars hanging from it.

"Master, it's getting dark." Ji Gui flicked her finger, and the Green Jade Zither disappeared in the blink of an eye. Her red clothes were more vibrant than blood, and the smile in her eyes was more genuine than ever before, tender and intoxicating.

The starry sky was a canvas, vast and radiant. A strand of dark hair fell beside the man's fair cheek, and his alluring peach blossom eyes exuded a captivating charm that was impossible to escape.

Bi Xie stared blankly at the starlight that seemed so close at hand, his eyes wide with amazement. It was so beautiful!

Suddenly, Bi Xie shrank her neck, lowered her eyelids, and looked at the man who suddenly put his head close to her neck. Her heartbeat became irregular, and she stammered, "Ji Gui, you, you... don't get so close, I... I'm itchy."

The man chuckled softly, his breath sweet and alluring: "Where does Master itch? Let me scratch it for you."

The surrounding air seemed to have become a bit hot.

A bead of sweat appeared on Bi Xie's forehead. He glanced at the alluring yet wicked smile on Ji Gui's lips, then at the increasingly dark eyes, and swallowed hard. "Ji Gui, I..."

Before she could finish speaking, she gasped, and the world spun before her eyes. In the blink of an eye, the man had pinned her to the bed.

Ji Gui chuckled as he stared at her flushed face, then lightly pinched her stiff waist: "Master, now that you've seen the surprise, shouldn't you call me... husband?"

Bi Xie's red lips parted slightly, and she breathed heavily as if she were lacking oxygen.

The sight of those slightly parted red lips deepened the darkness in Ji Gui's eyes, and his hands began to wander.

Bi Xie quietly called out a few times, "Ru Hua, Ru Hua?"

Ru Hua didn't reply to her.

Bi Xie's lips curled slightly, a sly glint flashing in her eyes. She reached out and grabbed the man's collar, gently hooking it around his neck. Their eyes met, noses touched, and their breaths mingled. "Husband, I really like this surprise..."

Her reaction was so different before and after that that Ji Gui didn't react for a moment. Bi Xie had already gently bitten his thin lips. "Idiot, you're still the same as before. You look fierce, but you can't do anything."
