“Even if you like him, he may not like you. Besides, immortals and demons can’t be together. You and I are a perfect match. Our engagement was made many years ago,” Zhi Lan said with extreme determination.
At this moment, Ci Yan, who had been silent all along, silently stepped in front of Wan Ge: "What right does Goddess Zhi Lan have to decide for me whether I like her or not? What if I say that I like Wan Ge and want to be with her?"
Ci Yan hadn't spoken until now because Wan Ge was blocking his way and saying things he liked to hear, so he didn't want to interrupt.
But Zhi Lan said he didn't love her, which wouldn't do! Ci Yan already knew how she felt, otherwise why would he be bothering her?
Actually, it wasn't that Wan Ge was reluctant to part with Ci Yan, but rather that Ci Yan was reluctant to part with Wan Ge.
Ci Yan smiled, but his eyes didn't look happy: "As for what you said about immortals and demons not being able to be together, that's not your decision. If the Heavenly Emperor has no objections, then your opinions don't matter."
I think the Heavenly Emperor would be quite pleased if the Demon Queen were a fairy, so that he would consider her feelings in the future. Moreover, a marriage between a fairy and a demon would provide greater security for both sides.
"You want to marry her? No way. I won't let the Heavenly Emperor agree. I'll go back soon and tell you what's going on." Zhi Lan was convinced that the Immortal Clan didn't know about their relationship. If she exposed it, Wan Ge would definitely not stay with the Demon Lord anymore.
"Go ahead and do as you please," Ci Yan said, not worried at all.
However, after Zhi Lan left, Ci Yan still appeared very nervous, looking at Wan Ge with an innocent expression. "What if the Heavenly Emperor really doesn't agree to us being together? What will Wan Ge do?"
“I will stay with you, even if I fall into demonic possession, I will stay with you, so you don’t need to worry about this. Right now, I want to complete my last mission in the Immortal Clan.”
When Ci Yan heard Wan Ge say that even if he were to become a demon, he would stay by his side, he felt as if his soul had been struck by a blow and was completely defeated.
It seemed like the first time he had been chosen so resolutely and decisively; how could he not like it?
"So what exactly are you doing in the human world? What kind of mission do you want to help them complete? Perhaps I can be of some help?"
Even though Wan Ge knew that no matter how you looked at it, she was just a little fairy, now that she had gained the favor of the Demon Lord and was being sent to become the Demon Queen, it was a huge win for the fairy race.
In reality, there was no way the Heavenly Emperor would disagree. Zhi Lan was simply too young and hadn't grasped the intricacies of the situation.
“Actually, you can really help. The Cloud Shuttle of the Heavenly Realm is lost. It’s the ancient artifact Cloud Shuttle that you know. It’s been left in the mortal world. I now suspect that it has been sealed away, which is why I haven’t been able to detect its presence.”
Although Ci Yan is not a master tracker, he is incredibly strong, far beyond their comprehension. Therefore, with just a slight movement, Ci Yan might be able to detect the Cloud Shuttle's movements.
“I can help with this, and as long as the Cloud Shuttle is in my hands, I think the Heavenly Emperor will be even less likely to refuse our marriage.”
