Lu Chenzhan, who had come to attend Xie Qi's wedding, sat in the audience. His eyes strayed towards Hu Wei, and he froze slightly, a look of surprise on his face. After a moment's silence, he couldn't help but ask, "Break up?"
Hu Wei was sitting elegantly in the guest seats, radiating confidence and dignity. Facing Lu Chenzhan's question, she didn't seem to take it too seriously, simply responding casually, "She can't accept that I'm a demon."
Hu Wei had a soft spot for Shen Nian deep down. If Shen Nian liked her too, she would naturally give her heart. However, if she disagreed, Hu Wei wouldn't pester her.
After all, the awe-inspiring Fox Demon King has gone through hundreds of years of baptism, and he has long since become indifferent to many emotional entanglements in the world. How could he easily worry about this little love affair?
Then, Hu Wei's gaze slowly shifted to Xiao Ziran, the best man on the stage. He was tall and handsome.
Hu Wei couldn't help but gossip with great interest. She leaned slightly to the left, moved closer to Lu Chenzhan, and asked with a smile, "Hey, how are things going between you two?"
Hearing this, Lu Chenzhan's lips lifted unconsciously, forming a gentle smile. His bright eyes remained fixed on Xiao Ziran above him, and even his tone of voice became gentle, "I'm almost there."
Seeing this, Hu Wei couldn't help but raise her arm and gently bumped Lu Chenzhan's arm, teasing him, "Not bad, you're worthy of being the one who's willing to give out the Heart Scale. Don't forget to invite me when you hold your wedding."
Lu Chenzhan nodded without hesitation and replied, "Of course."
Love between demons and humans has both advantages and disadvantages. After all, humans have a much shorter lifespan than demons, usually lasting no more than a hundred years before reaching the end of their lives.
However, if two people truly love each other, then that is love. As for how the future will develop, no one can accurately predict. But as long as they can rely on each other in this life, that is enough.
Of course, if a demon longs to remain with a loved one forever, there's a way out. A demon can give half of its demon elixir to its loved one. This way, even if the human dies and reincarnates, the demon can still use this half of its demon elixir to find its loved one in the next life.
However, this approach is not without cost. When a demon gives up half of its demon core, its own demonic power will be greatly weakened.
Therefore, demons rarely share demon pills with their other half, unless their feelings are deep and they want to renew their old relationship.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ze had entered his twilight years. His youthful appearance was no longer what it once was, his body becoming increasingly thin, and his face was full of traces of time.
In order to spend the rest of his life with Xiao Ze, Xie Qi transformed himself into an old man and stayed by his side.
At this moment, Xiao Ze was lying on the bed, his eyes, which were originally clear and bright but now slightly cloudy, were filled with deep attachment and reluctance to Xie Qi.
Xie Qi lowered his head slightly, his movements as gentle as the breeze blowing through the petals, and gently kissed Xiao Ze's wrinkled forehead.
His voice was gentle yet firm, and he spoke slowly with a reassuring strength: "Don't worry, no matter where you are, I will find you."
As Xie Qi's words, like a promise, fell into place, Xiao Ze's heart, which had been hanging in the air, seemed to finally find a place to rest, and he slowly closed his eyes. His face was serene and peaceful, as if he had just entered a long sleep.
Afterwards, Xie Qi calmly handled Xiao Ze's funeral. Throughout the funeral, Xie Qi remained remarkably calm, showing no signs of excessive grief or tears. Even Lu Chenzhan, who had accompanied Xiao Ziran to the funeral, was puzzled.
Unable to suppress his curiosity, Lu Chenzhan quietly approached Xie Qi after the funeral.
When he came into close contact with Xie Qi, he unexpectedly discovered that the demon pill in Xie Qi's body was intact! This shocked Lu Chenzhan greatly.
Because according to common sense, if Xie Qi really loved Xiao Ze so deeply, how could he not give up half of his inner elixir? After all, if he didn't share the inner elixir, even if Xiao Ze had the chance to reincarnate, he would be like a drop in the ocean in this world with no memory and a completely changed appearance. Xie Qi's hope of finding the familiar figure among them would be simply a fantasy.
After Xiao Ze's funeral, Xie Qi led Lu Chenzhan and Xiao Ziran into a quiet room, ready to have a private conversation with them.
At this moment, Xiao Ziran's hair was already covered in silver, and the years had carved deep and shallow marks on his face. In order to take Xiao Ziran's feelings into consideration, Lu Chenzhan also cast a spell to transform himself into an old man.
Only Xie Qi still maintains his youthful appearance.
Xie Qi stared quietly at the two old men holding hands tightly before him. After a long moment, he turned his gaze towards Lu Chenzhan and asked, "Are you willing to give up half of your demon core for Xiao Ziran?"
Lu Chenzhan answered without hesitation, "Of course! We've already discussed this matter. I will definitely find his reincarnation. But... why didn't you give the demon pill to Xiao Ze?"
Xiao Ziran, who was standing aside, couldn't help but look shocked when he heard these words. After all, he knew how much Xie Qi loved his cousin.
However, Xie Qi continued to ask calmly, "Lu Chenzhan, don't you know that if you give away half of your demon core, you will no longer be able to take on the position of Demon King?"
Faced with this question, Lu Chenzhan smiled faintly and said nonchalantly: "So what? I have been the Demon King for so long, it's time to make room for the younger generation."
