"Don't be nervous, I won't come any closer."
Xia Tianqiong quickly stopped in her tracks. "If you swallow this consciousness, you'll know everything."
The ghost bride, like a frightened little girl, looked on warily, "Why do I have to devour it? Is it trying to harm me?"
Xia Tianqiong felt helpless; this little girl was far too wary.
Or should we forcibly control her and directly insert our consciousness into her body?
Will this be considered domestic violence?
Just as he was hesitating whether to take action, a sudden inspiration struck him. "Sixiang, there is a marriage contract between us. If you sense it carefully, you should be able to discover an inner connection between us."
Seeing that his tone was sincere and he did not show any aggression, the ghost bride was somewhat relieved.
So he narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully sensed it.
Sure enough, she had a vague feeling that she was connected to the man in front of her, and she could even vaguely sense his urgent and excited emotions at that moment.
This connection was wonderful; it made her suddenly feel very close to the other person.
As her wariness gradually subsided, the Ghost Bride tentatively stepped forward, raised her nose, and gently inhaled. She saw the pale blue consciousness in Xia Tianqiong's hand being drawn into her body.
Then he closed his eyes and slowly absorbed the memories within his consciousness.
Xia Tianqiong stood silently opposite her, not disturbing her.
As I watched, I suddenly noticed two lines of clear tears in the corner of the ghost bride's eyes. I was immediately startled. What was going on?
Why did you make yourself cry?
Just as he was stunned and at a loss, the ghost bride suddenly opened her eyes, looked at him with tender eyes, full of affection.
"My lord!"
She uttered two words softly, and the next instant, she suddenly threw herself into Xia Tianqiong's arms.
Xia Tianqiong instinctively hugged him, and the hug grew tighter and tighter.
They secretly vowed that from now on, no one would ever separate them.
"Sixiang, don't cry, it's all over now."
The ghost bride looked up at Xia Tianqiong, her eyes still glistening with tears.
"My lord, how did you get rid of Jun Shisan? And how did you bring me back to life?"
Her memory ended just before she died, and she was unaware of her current situation.
Xia Tianqiong cupped her face in his hands, gently wiping away the tears on her cheeks, and then said with a proud look, "Jun Shisan preserved your true spirit and used it to blackmail me."
Unfortunately, your husband only used a little trick to devour him, and he will never bother us again.
The ghost bride's eyes widened, her face beaming with joy. "How did you do that, my lord? Hmm? Your aura is so strong, are you already a ghost god?"
"Haha, more than just a Ghost God, I am now known as the strongest Ghost God in the Upper Realm."
Xia Tianqiong then recounted her recent experiences.
Perhaps he was too happy, because he, who never used to brag, actually embellished the story and exaggerated the whole thing, leaving the ghost bride stunned and her eyes gradually filled with admiration.
The two, one human and one ghost, stood embracing each other in front of the bamboo house, seemingly having endless things to say.
The floating city below.
After the wolf king returned, he ordered the release of all the imprisoned members.
White Wolf Aye and a group of wolf generals gathered around the Wolf King, feeling both nervous and apprehensive, unsure of their fate and whether they would also have their memories erased like the Wolf King.
They dared not run, firstly because the Wolf King was there, having become Xia Tianqiong's contracted demon; and secondly because they couldn't escape even if they wanted to, as Xia Tianqiong could easily capture them.
The four demon kings quietly fled to the prison tower.
The Prison Tower didn't leave either; it flew to the vicinity of the Floating City, where those Ghost Kings seemed to want to see Xia Tianqiong.
They guessed that Xia Tianqiong was currently reviving the Ghost Bride, so they didn't go to the floating island to disturb him.
Inside the courtyard, the core members remained, waiting for Xia Tianqiong to arrive.
Now they are all beaming with joy, their previous frustration completely gone.
Xiao Ba was yelling and running around the yard like a football World Cup goal had suddenly been scored.
After running a few laps, it suddenly turned a corner, rushed up to the delivery guy, and glared at him angrily.
"I told you the boss would definitely come back. You almost got everyone killed. What do you say about that?"
The scene suddenly fell silent, and all eyes turned to them.
These gazes were complex, containing admiration, awe, appreciation, and understanding.
Of course, there were also resentments. Even the most loyal subordinates rarely had anyone like Waimai Gui who was willing to die for Xia Tianqiong.
The delivery ghost kept gazing at the floating island orchard above, tears welling up in its eyes without anyone noticing.
When Xiao Ba questioned him in front of everyone, he quickly lowered his head, wiped away his tears, and then slowly looked at all the members present.
"I am very sorry for what happened before. I almost killed everyone. I apologize to everyone."
After he finished speaking, he suddenly bent down and bowed deeply.
The group of members were stunned, not expecting him to be so formal, and Xiao Ba was even a little embarrassed.
He originally just wanted to make a joke and lighten the mood, but he never expected the delivery guy to take it so seriously.
"It's not your fault, you made the right decision back then," Jiang Yu was the first to step forward and comfort you.
"Anyway, everyone's alright now, so don't worry about it too much." Song Shiqiao walked over and stood next to the delivery guy, showing her support.
Next, everyone expressed their thoughts, and no one blamed the delivery company for being strange.
Xiao Tao, sitting in the corner, suddenly spoke up: "You did the right thing. If it were me, I would definitely have done the same."
She spoke very seriously, which stunned everyone present.
Thinking to myself, if it were you, we would have died long ago, and no one could have stopped you!
Ying Shugui quickly advised from the side, "Xiao Tao, only the head steward can make such important decisions. Let's just be obedient henchmen and beat whoever we're told to beat. We will never make decisions on our own, okay?"
