When the night completely covers the outside world, the demon world will become darker and silent accordingly.
In the dead of night, a tall figure appeared outside the palace gate.
The maid guarding outside the palace gate saw the person coming and knelt hurriedly to pay her respects.
The man did not even glance around, he just pushed open the door and walked in.
It was dark inside the hall, but the man's excellent eyesight allowed him to see the environment inside the hall clearly.
He walked to the bed with ease and the sleeping face of the girl came into view.
The fair little face was pink and tender because of deep sleep, as if it was painted with the finest rouge, very tempting...
His eyes fell on the flowers that the girl placed on the pillow, and Wanqi Xiu couldn't help but curl his lips and reveal a smile.
He took off his shoes and quietly got onto the bed.
The man's broad shoulders could easily hold the girl beside him in his arms, and with a hug of his upper arms, he could wrap her tightly...
Knowing that the girl is in a deep sleep, she won't wake up easily.
Wanqi Xiu did not disturb her thoughts.
He just hugged the person, put his thin lips on the other's forehead, and kissed him gently.
After the kiss, he stared at the person in his arms with burning eyes and smiled silently.
Ever since he met her, he had been like a person who was thirsty for skin, wishing to be in close contact with her skin all the time...
As Wanqi Xiu laughed, he didn't know what he was thinking about. The smile on his lips gradually faded, and his eyes gradually became dark and cold.
The situation on the edge of the demon world is very complicated now, it can be said to be very bad.
Yan Wu has been working like a madman these past few days, trying his best to destroy the seal. In order to prevent him from lifting the seal too quickly, he sent all the prisoners in the dungeon to stop him...
Unexpectedly, in just four days, all the prisoners sent there were killed, along with many demons stationed at the edge...
There were not enough people on the edge of the demon world, and he had been planning to command the mission himself tonight. However, after seeing the extent of the damage to the seal, he decided to rush back immediately.
The seal wouldn't last long. Even if he sent more people to stop that madman, it would be in vain...
In that case, why not move the wedding forward?
As long as they complete the wedding before that madman comes, the destined Taoist couple contract cannot be cancelled by anyone, not even Yan Wu...!
Thinking of this, Wanqi Xiu hugged the person in his arms tightly, his eyes flashing with excitement in the darkness.
…
When the noise broke out in the hall, it was still dark outside.
It was dark, still night.
Several maids who were responsible for serving Gu Yangyang in the morning were standing in front of the bed, ready for action.
When Gu Yangyang was gently awakened, this was the scene she saw——
The dim hall had been lit with candles and night-shining pearls at some point. A large group of people were waiting by the bed, all dressed in red, holding various instruments in their hands...
There were basins, handkerchiefs, and garments, as well as little trumpets and little golden gongs…
The first few items were things that would normally be used in the morning, but the last two were things that Gu Yangyang had never seen before.
She sat on the edge of the bed, still a little dazed and didn't react.
At this time, the maids had already come forward and started to wash and dress her.
Gu Yangyang looked at the people in front of her in a daze, and found that not only were they dressed in festive clothes today, but they also all put on makeup, as if to set off some atmosphere...
"No need, you all can leave, I can do it myself..." Gu Yangyang said with a slightly hoarse voice. She had just woken up, and her voice was so soft that it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it.
Unfortunately, the people surrounding her heard it, but pretended not to hear it and continued with what they were doing.
Gu Yangyang: “???”
She was forced to sit in front of a mirror, with a warm handkerchief pressed against her cheek. Someone behind her carefully combed her hair, put it into a beautiful bun, and inserted golden hairpins into her hair...
Drawing eyebrows, applying rouge...
Seeing her face in the mirror looking even more beautiful because of her makeup, Gu Yangyang finally realized something was wrong.
She looked around and listened carefully, only to find that it was not only inside the hall but also outside that it seemed to be very lively.
There were music and dancing, as if they were welcoming some happy event...
happy event?
Gu Yangyang's heart trembled, and she suddenly remembered that if there was any happy event in the demon world recently, it would be her wedding with Wanqi Xiu, right? !
Ignoring the dissuasion of the maid who was putting makeup on her, she turned her head hastily, and sure enough, she saw the maids standing behind her holding something in their hands -
Bright red, embroidered with gold thread.
Pearls and jade, phoenix coronet and bridal robe.
When she was first awakened, she misjudged it and thought that the red dress was her own dress that they had sent back to her.
But unexpectedly, this was not an ordinary dress, it was clearly a neat wedding dress!
Gu Yangyang suddenly felt dizzy.
What's going on...?
She had clearly calculated that there were still a few days left before the wedding, how come it came so soon? !
The wedding is brought forward!
Why?!
Gu Yangyang, who was completely stunned, was carefully pushed back into the chair by the maids.
She was no longer sleepy at this moment, but her mind was extremely confused.
He looked dazed, like a puppet at the mercy of others, without any resistance...
Even the maid beside her didn't notice that she was wearing a wedding dress...
“Woo——”
“Boom—”
The sound of low horns and loud gongs and drums suddenly rang out, waking up Gu Yangyang who was immersed in chaotic thoughts.
She looked at herself in the mirror, fully dressed, and her heart sank.
If I really marry Wanqi Xiu today and become his Taoist partner, then I really can't leave here...
If she couldn't leave here, how could she complete the rest of her mission? How could she return to reality...
Just thinking about this, Gu Yangyang became anxious.
She immediately stood up and reached out to take off the heavy phoenix crown on her head, but was stopped by the frightened maids watching from the side...!
With a loud noise, a group of people knelt on the ground.
The people kneeling in front of her and serving her didn't understand why she did this.
Clearly, she was getting along very well with Lord Demon a few days ago, wasn't she...?
"Demon Queen! Please don't take off the Phoenix Coronet! The Taoist Couple Ceremony is about to begin. If the Demon Lord sees that you are not ready, he will definitely not let us go...!"
"Please... We don't want to die...!"
A group of people immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy.
They may be able to see that the girl in front of them is unwilling, but they also want to live...
They knew how much the man valued the Taoist Couple Ceremony. Although the man had restrained himself a lot during this period, if there was any mistake in this matter, there was no guarantee that he would not go on a killing spree again...
At that time, the demon world would not just be a river of blood...
