"Let them wait in the Hall of Reincarnation."
Leng Ye parted his thin lips slightly and pulled Xuan Qianning into his arms.
Although he was unwilling to engage in pretense with the immortals.
On second thought, the Five Emperors were, after all, Xuan Qianning's family, so she had to give them some face.
Xuan Qianning nestled heavily in Leng Ye's arms, her mind heavy with worry, and said in a muffled voice, "Why did Father come at this time? Could it be that he has come to interrogate us?"
"What crime did he ask? I'd like to ask him properly how he disciplined Xuan Fengqian, who doesn't understand any rules at all."
"Can..."
Xuan Qianning had a feeling that the White Emperor's actions this time seemed to have a deeper meaning.
Logically speaking, if the White Emperor wanted Xuan Fengqian back, he could have simply asked Leng Ye for her in front of all the immortals at the homecoming banquet.
When the time comes, even if Leng Ye is unwilling to release the person, he will have to prioritize the overall situation and personally release Xuan Fengqian. Although he claims to be invincible throughout the Six Realms, this does not mean that he is willing to completely break ties with the Immortal Clan before the time is ripe.
In this way, both sides can still maintain a semblance of peace.
But the White Emperor, contrary to common sense, arrived at the door with the Four Heavenly Emperors in a grand manner just before the homecoming banquet, demanding the person's return.
It should be known that the Nine Netherworld is full of traps and mechanisms. If Leng Ye is angered, Bai Di and the others will definitely not get away with it.
Or perhaps...
The White Emperor rushed here in such a hurry not to get Xuan Fengqian back, but for Xuan Fengqian's life-long happiness.
Everyone knows that the White Emperor dotes on Xuan Fengqian to an extreme degree, and he will do everything he can to get her anything she wants.
Even her husband was no exception.
Prior to this, in order to persuade Leng Ye to marry Xuan Fengqian, the White Emperor was even willing to give up the jurisdiction of the Eight Thousand Mile Heavenly River.
However, Leng Ye remained unmoved by reason, so Bai Di finally gave up on the idea.
Now that Xuan Fengqian has been in the Nine Netherworld for several days, the White Emperor can use the reputation of his daughter as leverage, and with the combined power of all the Heavenly Emperors, force Leng Ye to submit.
Thinking of this, a fierce glint flashed in Xuan Qian's eyes.
His hatred for Baidi deepened even further.
This time, she absolutely cannot compromise easily, absolutely not!
Leng Ye noticed that Xuan Qianning's body had begun to tremble involuntarily, and asked gently, "What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, if Father were to ask you to take Qianqian to the homecoming banquet, would you agree?"
"The person I married is you, so why are you taking her with you?"
Although Leng Ye said this, he felt a little regretful in his heart.
He regretted marrying the wrong person.
When he was first reborn, he truly hated Xuan Fengqian and always wanted to drag her into the deepest hell, making her wish she were dead.
Now, though hatred has not been extinguished, love is growing wildly.
He only wanted to break her wings, cripple her cultivation, imprison her by his side, and make her his exclusive possession.
In Leng Ye's view, this was the most perfect ending for them.
However, he did not consider whether he could bear to break her "wings".
Seeing Leng Ye's words, Xuan Qianning said no more.
She concealed her sorrow, her lips curving upwards into a faint, triumphant smile, and gracefully followed Leng Ye into the Hall of Reincarnation.
Emperor Bai, anxious to find his daughter, saw Leng Ye arrive late and strode up to him, grabbing Leng Ye's collar with one hand and demanding in a stern voice, "Where is my precious daughter?"
"release."
Leng Ye's eyes were cold and indifferent, like the edge of a knife, and his whole body exuded a strong murderous aura.
