"How can I bear to hurt you? You are my wife-to-be." Cen Ji smiled palely.
Before Yan Ying could tighten her grip on Cen Ji's hand, she felt the world spinning around her, as if she had fallen into an endless vortex, weightless and falling...
"Little ghost, wake up."
Yan Ying opened her eyes and found herself lying in Cen Ji's arms.
Seeing Yan Ying wake up, Cen Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Ying sat up, only to see the entire Yuan Huizong palace engulfed in flames, with corpses and blood strewn across the ground.
"This..." Yan Ying looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief.
"The fox demon has been sealed, and the injured and survivors have been moved to a safe place." Cen Ji explained patiently.
He clearly left the illusion with Yan Ying, but for some reason Yan Ying woke up almost an hour later than him.
Perhaps it was because she had crossed two illusions and her soul had suffered heavy damage.
"My master and brothers..."
"Don't worry, they are all fine." Cen Ji comforted.
Yan Ying finally felt relieved. "How was the fox demon sealed?"
Cen Ji lowered his eyes and said nothing. What appeared in his mind was the time when he sealed the fox demon and Cang Jinglan and he subdued the monster together.
Cang Jinglan predicted the disaster that would happen today, so he rushed over and just in time to hold the fox demon back, saving the lives of everyone who had entered the illusion with Emperor Yuan Huizong.
The fox demon's power was too strong, so Cang Jinglan pushed him out of the formation.
The usually cold-hearted Master's expression was slightly moved the moment he spoke. "I have lost everything, but you still have a bright future. Live well."
Cen Ji saw with his own eyes that Cang Jinglan and the fox demon died together and turned into stars.
......
The monster that was wreaking havoc on the world was subdued, and the whole country celebrated.
Guiyun Sect's reputation soared.
Yan Ying later learned that Cang Jinglan died in order to seal the fox demon. She went to Sunset Peak, but did not see Mu Siyue.
Some disciples said that Mu Siyue had gone down the mountain to live in seclusion, while others said they had seen their master leaving the sect holding a spirit tablet.
"What are you thinking about?" Ye Chenge waved his hand in front of Yan Ying's eyes. "Are you thinking about Wu Bai or Master?"
"Are you thinking about me?"
Ye Chenge heard the voices and looked behind her, but unexpectedly saw two faces she hated.
It was really abominable that Cen Ji was fighting with her for the little dirty bun, and there was also that annoying Shangguan Hong.
"How do you know I'm thinking of you?" Yan Ying smiled, stood up and walked towards Cen Ji.
"You forget your senior sister when you see beauty." Ye Chenge frowned.
"Senior Sister Shangguan will never forget me." Yan Ying said with a smile and ran away with Cen Ji.
Under the moonlight, Yan Ying and Cen Ji's shadows were stretched very long.
Because Cen Ji helped Jiuzhou capture the monster, the relationship between Demon Realm and Jiuzhou eased a lot.
Even He Qing, who had always regarded the Demon Realm as an enemy, changed his attitude a little.
"Little girl, everything is ready for the wedding. When are you going to... marry me?" Cen Ji said softly, holding Yan Ying's hand.
"Well... I still need to think about it..." Yan Ying said with a serious expression.
"What are you considering?" Cen Ji said unhappily.
"I'm considering marrying you."
"I think we should do it tonight, first the bridal chamber and then the wedding." Cen Ji said as he picked up Yan Ying and carried her sideways, then turned and walked towards Yan Ying's bedroom.
"Damn Cen Ji! Put me down!"
"No, not unless you call me husband."
The night is quiet and the cicadas are singing.
"I dream of marrying you, making you my wife, and being with you forever." Cen Ji gently embraced the person in his arms, his eyes lingering. "Fortunately, you are willing too."
"Not only am I willing, I'm also happy and looking forward to it." Yan Ying said softly.
When they first met, she only hoped that he would like her more, but when he gradually opened his heart to her, she had already fallen deeply in love with him.
How lucky I am to have love accompanying me in this life, and a hundred years will not feel long.
