Only Yun Che and Jasmine were left in the bedroom. Without Caizhi, the atmosphere became a little weird.
“Huh,” Yun Che let out a long sigh: “Jasmine, are you doing this to protect me?”
Jasmine was definitely not a person who would act recklessly, and it was even more impossible for her to act recklessly when it came to Caizhi’s lifelong event, so even though Yun Che was completely confused, he did not resist too strongly.
“Hmph!” Jasmine turned her face away: “You are being too sentimental. You and Caizhi have exchanged tokens and worshipped heaven and earth. Now you are husband and wife. Since it is a fact, you are not allowed to ask anymore. In the future… you will know.”
“Of course I know you won’t harm me and Caizhi, but… this is too weird. This is a major event in life! It would be hard for anyone to accept it for a while.”
“Is it hard to accept?” Jasmine glanced at Yun Che and snorted again, “How come I can’t see it at all from you? Hmph! You’re still acting cute after getting the advantage.”
“Ahem,” Yun Che’s old face turned red as he argued, “Of course I’m fine. If this is really your wish, let alone your sister, I can even marry an old sow. But for Caizhi… this will definitely be more serious.”
"Really?" Jasmine sneered: "Then I'll go catch an old sow now."
“Wait, wait!” Yun Che’s feet softened, and he reached out to grab Jasmine’s arm in a panic, “Okay, I won’t ask you why you did this. But, how are you going to explain this to your father… uh, the Star God Emperor?”
“Caizhi doesn’t have a father,” Jasmine said in a cold voice, “You don’t have to explain to that old thief. He doesn’t deserve it!”
Every time she mentioned the “old thief”, Jasmine’s aura would turn cold, and her entire body would reflexively surge with a bone-chilling hatred… and even murderous intent.
Her hatred for Xing Juekong has already penetrated deep into her bones, and perhaps it will never be resolved in this lifetime.
"And even if he knew, he wouldn't say anything."
Yun Che was stunned and asked, "Why?"
“Don’t worry about that.” Jasmine did not give a direct answer, but instead said, “Remember what I said before. You must treat Caizhi as well as you treat other women. Don’t be biased in the slightest. Otherwise… I will not let you off!”
“Okay.” Yun Che agreed with a smile: “I will be as good to Caizhi as I am to Jasmine.”
I thought that I would be met with a cold stare from Jasmine after saying this, and maybe even be kicked away by her. Unexpectedly, Jasmine did not refute me, but was silent for a while, and then said very seriously: "Okay, remember what you said."
“Hmm?” Yun Che was stunned for a moment, and looked at Jasmine with suspicion: “Why are you so strange today?”
“What’s so strange about that!?” Jasmine snorted softly, but turned her eyes away, somewhat afraid to look Yun Che in the face. At the same time, she coldly changed the subject: “Whether you like it or not, you and Caizhi have already worshipped heaven and earth, exchanged tokens, and her mother, aunt, and I are witnesses. You two are already husband and wife! What is your impression of Caizhi?”
Yun Che thought for a moment and said, “I haven’t been with Caizhi for a long time, but I have two special impressions of her.”
"Which two?"
“One is that she considers you more important than herself, and much more important.” Yun Che looked at Jasmine and said with great seriousness.
In the Black Ya Realm, after she recognized his identity, she secretly helped him in various ways... excitedly called him "brother-in-law" for a man of very low birth and cultivation... jumped for joy when she saw him in the Star God Realm... taught him the Heavenly Wolf Hell God Canon that should have belonged to her alone without reservation... and submitted to the marriage that Jasmine forced upon her...
Everything was telling Yun Che that Jasmine held an extremely important position in Caizhi’s heart.
"..." Jasmine bit her lip lightly: "What else?"
“Also…” Yun Che’s eyes flickered slightly: “She is far from being as innocent and ignorant of the world as she looks. On the contrary… she is extremely smart and very good at hiding herself.”
Jasmine turned her head, a hint of surprise on her face: "Why do you think so?"
"When she was in the Black Ya Realm, I always thought she was a little princess spoiled by a big family, all kinds of inexplicable and ignorant... But now when I think back to what she said and did at that time, almost every word and every action was a very targeted test."
"When she called me brother-in-law for the first time, she had already completely confirmed my identity."
“And in the Black Ya Realm, I can say that I was played around by her.” Yun Che looked helpless: “I have really not met many people in my life who can play me around. However, she is not deliberately teasing me, but testing my feelings for you.”
"Perhaps she was very satisfied with the results of the test, so she helped me find the 'Nine-Star Buddha Jade' and gave me a Void Illusion Stone as a gift."
Compared to Yun Che, Wu Guike was teased and schemed by Caizhi to the point of wanting to die...
But when she was in front of Jasmine, Yun Che could not see the slightest bit of scheming and scheming. She was just a young girl who was completely open, without any defense or reservation, and unwilling to resist.
He even seemed to be a little cautious, not wanting to make his sister angry at all.
“You’re right,” Jasmine closed her eyes slightly and spoke in a much softer voice, “Caizhi is indeed very smart and very good at hiding herself. However, she is not born that way; it is a way for her to protect herself.”
“Self-protection?” Yun Che was puzzled: “She was born as a little princess of the Star God Realm, and now she is also the Sirius Star God. I think… she is almost the person in the world who needs the least self-protection.”
Jasmine shook her head, her eyes dark, “The Star God Realm is far from being as pure as you see… All king realms are like this.”
Yun Che: “…”
Turning her eyes to the direction where Caizhi had left, Jasmine slowly said, “We in the Star God Realm believe in the power of the stars, and believe that every person in the world has a corresponding star.”
“When Caizhi was one month away from being born, that old thief asked those old guys in the Council of Elders to calculate the star that Caizhi corresponded to, and the result they got was…”
"A star of damnation that will bring endless disasters!"
Yun Che shook his head: “How can I believe in such things? I have never believed in the idea of fate being determined by heaven. Having reached the level of the Star God Realm, I should believe in it even less.”
"No, they believed it." Jasmine continued, "And what happened afterwards also proved the four words 'unlucky star'."
Yun Che: “……!?”
"When Caizhi was born, she took away all of her mother's vitality, causing her aunt to die of exhaustion. That old villain and everyone in Star God City also believed that she was a 'star of destiny'. They all rejected her and refused to get close to her. They abandoned her in that abandoned bedroom and left her to fend for herself. If it weren't for my brother bringing her back and my mother taking her in, she would have already died with my aunt."
“How could such a thing happen?” Yun Che’s brows sank deeply. “No matter how much the Star God Emperor believes in such things, Caizhi is his biological daughter after all. How could he possibly do such a thing as…letting a newborn baby fend for itself?”
Jasmine sneered sarcastically and continued, “Not long after I brought Caizhi back, my mother was captured by the Moon God Realm and committed suicide. Later, my brother was killed by Qianye Ying’er and also passed away. After that, I was ambushed in the Southern God Territory and everyone thought I was dead…”
“After her biological mother, the only three people in this world who were kind to her suffered misfortunes one after another. Even a powerful star god couldn’t avoid them. Everyone thought that this was all because of Caizhi, because she was a star of misfortune that would bring disaster to those around her… Even she herself thought so.”
“…” Yun Che suddenly felt depressed.
Her birth brought about the death of her biological mother, and she was rejected and despised by everyone from the beginning of her life. All those who were kind to her met with misfortunes one after another... With his experience, he could not imagine what kind of mental pressure and torture that would be.
What's more, she is just such a young girl.
"After my mother and brother passed away, Caizhi fell into a nightmare of self-blame and self-hatred. She believed that all these disasters were caused by her. If I hadn't been by her side during that time, she might have already collapsed mentally."
"Caizhi was only six years old at that time."
“Later, I accidentally got the news that the inheritance of the evil god appeared in the Southern Divine Region, so I went to the Southern Divine Region alone. Although I had inherited the power of the Heavenly Killer at that time, I was extremely eager for even more powerful power, in order to avenge my mother and brother, and to be able to leave the Star God Realm with Caizhi forever.”
And these were only part of the reasons. There was another important reason that Jasmine would never tell Yun Che.
"But, although I tried my best to obtain the 'Evil God's Immortal Blood', I was ambushed and poisoned by the God-killing Absolute Death Poison. In order to not give me any chance to get rid of the poison, the person who ambushed me chased me for a long, long way... Although I got rid of the pursuit, the poison spread to my soul. After that, everyone thought I was dead, and even I didn't believe I could survive."
She glanced at Yun Che, then looked away. She had never thought that this would be the turning point of her fate... because she met Yun Che.
Likewise, that was also a turning point in Yun Che’s fate, because he met Jasmine.
“I dare not think about how Caizhi managed to get through that period of time after the news of my death reached the Star God Realm. During the time in the Profound Sky Continent, Caizhi was the only thing I cared about in the Star God Realm. Caizhi was also the most important reason why I followed Yuluo back to the Star God Realm.”
Another important reason was naturally Yun Che, because if she didn't leave, Yun Che and even the entire Blue Pole Star would suffer a devastating disaster.
“Four years ago, when I returned to the Star God Realm, Caizhi had already inherited the divine power of the Sirius Star God. The old guys in the Council of Elders also said that her star fortune had changed from ‘the star of misfortune’ to ‘the star of Sirius’. Naturally, Caizhi’s status was completely different from before, from being despised by everyone to being revered by the world.”
Hearing this, Yun Che's depression finally eased a little. He had never thought, nor could he have thought, that the girl with a clear mind, a quirky spirit, eyes as pure as an elf, and a seemingly always charming smile, had actually gone through such a nightmare.
"The power of the Sirius Star God is recognized as the strongest among the twelve Star Gods. It is also the most difficult Star God power to find an heir. Back then, the reason why my brother was recognized by the Sirius Star God was because he had an extremely high talent and understanding in the profound way."
“And Caizhi… her talent in the profound way is exceptionally mediocre, but at the age of twelve, she was actively recognized by the Heavenly Wolf Divine Power, and achieved a near-perfect fit. Do you know why?”
Yun Che lowered his brows in thought, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat: “Could it be… resentment?”
Caizhi had just told him today that the Sirius Star God was also known as the God of Resentment, and that the Sirius Hell God Code was also born out of obsession and resentment. The greater the resentment, the more powerful the Sirius Hell God Code was.
“…” Jasmine nodded slightly. Her movements were very gentle, but they revealed an extremely heavy sense of depression: “After receiving the news of my death, Caizhi completely shut herself up in resentment… resentment towards the entire world, and… resentment towards herself.”
In Yun Che’s mind, the sword technique of the Seventh Sword of the Heavenly Wolf suddenly flashed through his mind:
The earth mourns and the sky is hurt, but all they do is hate their heartless heart.
Only hate...
"This sword has nothing to do with 'talent' or 'comprehension'. You will never be able to figure it out even if you think about it for ten thousand years! For someone as stupid as you, that 'opportunity' will never appear in your life. Do you understand?"
"I don't want you to have such an opportunity, and I don't want you to have such an opportunity either... Anyway, don't waste your energy thinking about it. You might as well practice the first five swords!"
“…” Yun Che closed his eyes. Caizhi was beaming with joy and excitement when she said these words. Thinking about it now, behind these words, every word carried a heaviness that ordinary people could not imagine.
Jasmine looked at Yun Che, and the words from her lips slowly seeped into the depths of his soul: “There has always been an abyss in Caizhi’s heart. You are Caizhi’s husband now, and you have the responsibility… to prevent her from ever falling into this abyss!”
If it were you, you would definitely be able to do it... Jasmine thought to herself.
“…Okay.” Yun Che nodded gently.
Just one word, but a lifetime commitment.
