Behind the bride, the long train of her wedding dress stretched to the ground, embroidered with lifelike golden phoenix patterns.
Those who were blocking Li Molin's way tactfully made way, and he could see her slender figure slowly walking towards him, her red dress shining brightly against the backdrop of the red silk at her feet.
A joyful smile appeared on Li Molin's face, a genuine smile that welled up from the depths of his heart, making him look so happy.
Seeing the smile on Li Molin's face, some demons started laughing and jeering, saying in a chaotic manner, "Your Majesty is smiling too happily!"
"It's not just a smile, look, look! His Majesty's eyes are fixed on the bride, he can't take them off!"
"That's right, Your Majesty, could you please stop looking at the bride and look at us first? Tonight, Your Majesty won't be able to see us; you'll be looking at the bride all night long!"
"..."
"Go away!" Li Molin was in a good mood. He waved his hand, chuckled and scolded a few times, and strode towards Liuli. His steps were so big and hurried that the wide hem of his wedding dress fluttered in a slight breeze.
"Oh, is Your Majesty getting impatient?"
"Ha ha……"
"..."
Li Molin completely ignored the teasing and jeers around him. He simply walked towards the slender figure that was slowly approaching, towards the person he loved most in his heart.
All that met Liuli's eyes was red; a red veil covered her eyes, so she couldn't see anything around her, only the clamor and chaotic laughter.
The sound made it clear to Liuli that everyone around her was happy. Perhaps at this moment, she, the only one in the city who should be the happiest, was not.
Even though Shi Chan rejected her that night and refused to return to secular life to marry her, she still couldn't help but hope that he would come and take her away these past few days.
Even today, she has finally given up hope.
He won't come. In his heart, she, Liuli, is ultimately no match for his Buddha and all living beings.
Beneath the red veil, Liuli lowered her eyes, a faint glimmer of light flashing in the corners of her eyes.
Just then, Liuli heard a familiar sound of footsteps approaching, and then a hand reached out in front of her.
She paused and hesitated for a long time before placing her hand in his.
Immediately, bursts of laughter and boisterous teasing erupted around me, creating quite a lively scene.
In stark contrast to the joyous atmosphere throughout the city of gods and demons, a gray-robed monk in the sky above the city exuded an air of desolation. He looked down at the city's vibrant red hues with a forlorn gaze.
Shi Chan left Bodhi Temple three days ago. For the past three days, he had come to look at the sky above the City of Gods and Demons every day. Only today did he see the city covered in red silk.
His eyesight was excellent; he could see a red silk ribbon stretching from a small palace at the very edge of the palace complex, winding its way to the widest street in the city. Perhaps the time had come, for the woman in her wedding dress emerged from the palace, surrounded by a crowd, and walked step by step on the red silk towards the man who loved and protected her.
Shi Chan looked at the man who had once exuded a cold and indifferent aura, now radiating a bright and cheerful energy. He strode towards her, and soon they met.
Then he reached out to her and took her small hand.
