Seeing Xiao Ye holding a wine cup, she hesitantly took it with her fair hand.
Having understood their connection, Gu Xiaosu's heart was no longer filled with disgust and resistance.
Beneath the flickering candlelight, her face was exceptionally beautiful.
Gu Xiaosu drank the ceremonial wine and whispered softly, "If I stay to be your wife, can you release those people from the Zheng Gu Sect?"
Xiao Ye's gaze was dark, and he remained silent.
Gu Xiaosu's face was pale as she said sincerely, "If you don't release my senior brothers, the sect will also send people to destroy you."
"Then I shall see how much power the Zheng Gu Sect has to offend me."
"I'll agree to be your husband, but you can't let my sect go?"
Xiao Ye looked at her gentle profile and suddenly understood.
"Are you using yourself to negotiate with me?"
"No, I don't want us both to be harmed. Since you are my husband, it would be too difficult for me if the sect misunderstands me."
Gu Xiaosu's tone was incredibly soft. She knew that to deal with this Demon Lord, the only way was to be gentle.
She owed him, and she would repay him.
However, Gu Xiaosu was a highly talented Saintess of the righteous path. How could she be willing to fall into the demon sect?
"Are you truly considering me?"
Xiao Ye asked indifferently.
Gu Xiaosu, dressed in a wedding gown, hardened her heart.
She nestled into Xiao Ye's chest and said shyly, "We were betrothed many years ago. I… how could I possibly lie to you now?"
"Husband, please release my fellow disciples who came with me?"
In the Zheng Gu Sect, the Saintess was always aloof and ethereal.
When had she ever humbled herself to please someone like this?
But for the lives of her senior disciples, Gu Xiaosu had no choice but to bow to Xiao Ye.
He chuckled lowly, wrapped his arm around Gu Xiaosu's waist, and the two walked towards the bed.
"That depends on whether my wife is willing."
Gu Xiaosu's heart jumped. Would she still have to spend her wedding night with Xiao Ye?
Since her previous resistance had failed, her shrewd mind would not provoke Xiao Ye.
The scene gradually blurred, no longer showing their progress.
The judgment scene.
The masses on Blue Star were astonished.
"Why did it go black at the most crucial moment? If you have the ability, let me watch a few more seconds…"
"Xiao Ye is truly ungracious. Why is there no footage at this moment?"
"Damn it, if the God of War Gu is captured by Xiao Ye and brought to the City of Slaughtering Gods, won't she be subjected to his torment every day?"
Some pounded their chests, while others cursed vehemently.
They were all dissatisfied with the abrupt ending of the footage.
…
"How is this possible… I'm really willing to be Xiao Ye's wife?"
Gu Xiaosu looked at the screen with reluctance, her mind a blank slate.
She had no memory of marrying Xiao Ye at all.
"What did you do to me? Why don't I have any recollection of marrying you?"
Gu Xiaosu anxiously approached Xiao Ye, looking up at him with an utterly helpless expression.
Xiao Ye remained unmoved, sitting on his throne, and said, "Why don't you just keep watching to find out?"
"Don't worry, we don't have that many stories. The memories will end soon…"
He had little patience for Gu Xiaosu; she was merely a tool for his advancement.
He wanted her redemption points and her repentance.
Xiao Ye's gaze was firm and indifferent, without a hint of emotion.
Gu Xiaosu's eyes were somewhat dazed. She found it hard to accept that she had once belonged to Xiao Ye.
He had clearly used such despicable means to torment her continuously!
Gu Xiaosu managed to grasp something from the memories. She believed she would never have willingly…
Agreed to be his wife in the demon sect, hoping to return to the righteous path soon.
Suddenly.
Gu Xiaosu's gaze caught a figure outside the hall.
It was Xiao Xi, who had witnessed the entire event. Her expression was somewhat stiff.
Gu Xiaosu forced a weak smile and looked at Xiao Xi unexpectedly.
She didn't dislike this girl, even though Xiao Xi had almost killed her.
However…
She was just a pitiable girl deceived by Xiao Ye.
Seeing how Xiao Ye treated her in the reincarnation, this girl would also see who was at fault.
Awaken the justice in your heart, girl.
Everything was Xiao Ye's fault.
When Xiao Xi saw Gu Xiaosu's gaze, her delicate face turned icy cold.
What an eyesore of a smile.
Having gained Xiao Ye's favor in the reincarnation, it was good… he wouldn't be fooled again.
He wouldn't be taken away by any female War God.
Gu Feng and the others rushed to the main hall to report something and encountered Xiao Xi at the entrance.
"Shh."
Upon seeing them, Xiao Xi slowly turned around.
She whispered a warning, "Don't tell Ye that I was here."
Gu Feng and Zhao Chen were startled. Seeing Xiao Xi walking further away.
They scratched the back of their heads, thinking the Lord seemed unhappy.
Entering the main hall, Gu Feng and the others saw the reincarnation footage.
They instantly understood Xiao Xi's strange behavior.
They were also captivated by Xiao Ye's reincarnation footage.
As loyal subordinates, they were curious about Xiao Ye's experiences.
However, they bowed respectfully and reported, "Master, Bai Xian'er has appeared outside the city and specifically wishes to see you."
Xiao Ye, seated on the throne, looked indifferently at Gu Feng and the others.
"Bai Xian'er?"
He narrowed his dark eyes, wondering if this woman would give him a surprise.
Would she bring the alliance's Myriad Laws Heavenly Scroll that Xiao Ye desired?
Xiao Ye compiled the reincarnation footage, piecing it together.
He said casually, "In a moment."
Upon hearing the news that Bai Xian'er had arrived in the city, Gu Xiaosu suddenly became a little excited.
She didn't know if Bai Xian'er had come to rescue her.
She also silently prayed that Bai Xian'er would not suffer any harm.
At this moment.
The reincarnation memories surged again.
The wedding night turned into the next morning.
Gu Xiaosu saw a maidservant rush in to help her get dressed.
The bed beside her had already turned cold.
While getting ready, Gu Xiaosu secretly rejoiced.
Nothing had happened between her and Xiao Ye last night.
Seeing her reluctance, Xiao Ye respected Gu Xiaosu and told her he would wait until she was willing.
They consummated their marriage.
Gu Xiaosu looked at herself in the mirror, a hint of good feeling towards Xiao Ye growing in her heart.
Because Gu Xiaosu knew that Xiao Ye could have forced her.
But he didn't. This Demon Lord's nature was not inherently bad.
"From now on, you are the Madam of our demon sect."
The maids said respectfully to Gu Xiaosu.
Gu Xiaosu's expression turned a little grim. If the Zheng Gu Sect knew she had become the Madam of the demon sect, she wondered how furious they would be.
They helped Gu Xiaosu change her clothes and led her out.
"I want to see the Demon Lord. Where is he?"
Arriving at the demon sect's mess hall, countless demon sect servants rushed to prepare food for Gu Xiaosu.
Hearing Gu Xiaosu's question, the maids shook their heads.
"Madam, we don't know…"
