Ghost Marriage, the Abandoned Wife Has Three Treasures

Su Zimo, a daughter of the Su family who was deemed worthless and incapable of cultivation, had her engagement with the Third Prince abruptly terminated by him on the streets, just a day before their wedding. To make matters worse, her own sister took her place in the marriage to the Third Prince, making her the subject of relentless gossip in the city. Consumed by resentment, she struck herself against the gate of the Su Family, inadvertently becoming the target of others seeking a ghost marriage. When Su Zimo finally regains consciousness, she finds herself awakening in a coffin. Considering her previous actions of hitting her head on the gate, this isn't entirely surprising. However, what astonishes her is the presence of another person lying beside her, dressed in vibrant red wedding attire. Overwhelmed by this sight, she nearly loses consciousness. On the other hand, he is burdened with an inexplicable and cursed status, which has plagued his family for generations. This curse, which has now befallen him, brings about unforeseen consequences. An accidental ghost marriage, a fierce business rivalry, and a tumultuous journey of love intertwine their destinies in a profound manner.

Mu Yunxuan renounces the position of Holy Lord.

Jun Zixi's eyes froze as she looked at Mu Yunxuan in disbelief. She had never seen Xuan'er look at her with such cold eyes before. Her words also darkened the faces of several people present.

"Xuan'er, don't forget, you are the Holy Lord of Cloud City. Our Cloud City has a thousand-year history, and the position of the Holy Lord Lady is highly esteemed and must be flawless."

Even if her son's gaze was cold, she had to say it.

When Su Zimo heard this, she suddenly regretted speaking out. She wasn't afraid of the conflict between Jun Zixi and Mu Yunxuan, but she was afraid that Jun Zixi's concerns would become her own troubles in the future. With her two sons by her side, she could easily distance herself from any negativity.

"Oak, Qi'er, let's go."

Su Zimo wasn't deliberately disrespecting Mu Yunxuan, but words were just words. People don't live according to words alone; they change with circumstances. Mu Yunxuan's tender intervention made her forget her original intention.

Su Qi and Su Li naturally followed Su Zimo's lead. Without saying a word, the two brothers, especially Su Li, turned around and walked toward the door.

"Oak." Mu Yunxuan quickly blocked him.

Su Li glared at him angrily. He wouldn't let his mother be insulted, even if the Mu family had great wealth and was the richest family in the world, it meant nothing to him.

"Li'er, can't you trust Daddy? Daddy promised you that he would never let any harm come to you and your mother."

"But my mother is being humiliated. My mother's past is a knot in your mother's heart, and I understand the thoughts in her heart. My mother is no longer in good health, and she will not stay in a family that looks down on her. Six years ago, it was not my mother's fault. She had no choice but to be chosen. You didn't have my mother's consent, yet you privately made her the object of your marriage. My mother survived near-death experiences because of the cancellation of the marriage agreement. But now, that has become a stain on the Mu family's reputation. If it can't be tolerated, why force it?" Su Li coldly expressed his grievances one by one. He was not like others, who would sugarcoat their words. He was Su Li, and what he saw, he said. Especially when it concerned his mother, he wouldn't hold back.

"Quercus..." Mu Yunxuan's lips trembled, and he inwardly laughed at himself. He had failed as a human being to the point that even his own son was unwilling to believe him.

"Mother-in-law, Sister-in-law and Elder Brother are already married. You're going too far by saying this," Mu Yunhan walked to Jun Zixi's side and coldly tried to persuade her.

"Yes! Zixi, you shouldn't interfere in Xuan'er's affairs."

"You shut up! How can I not interfere? The children we raise are the backbone of the Mu family. As for Miss Su, who wants to become the Holy Lord Lady of Cloud City, I disagree with that."

Jun Zixi's attitude was resolute. Since the words had been spoken, and seeing that her son's heart belonged to that woman, she decided to make her stance clear. After all, Su Zimo was rejected on the wedding day, and there had never been such a case among the daughters-in-law of the Mu family.

Su Qi and Su Li looked at Jun Zixi coldly.

"Huh!" Su Qi sneered, "Don't say you disagree. Does my mother agree? If you want to bring us to the Mu family, you're being unrealistic. Our surname is Su, not Mu."

Jun Zixi's words left Su Qi and Su Li completely cold.

Su Qi's words instantly angered Jun Zixi. "Qi'er, how dare you speak to Grandma like that?" Jun Cheng wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Zi Mo.

"Enough, let's not talk about it," Mu Yunxuan stood up and looked deeply at Su Zimo, who had remained silent.

"Don't pay attention to what others say. You are my wife, Su Zimo, and I, Mu Yunxuan, will fulfill my promises. I won't let you or our children suffer any grievances. I won't let you down."

In his deep black eyes, there was an unwavering determination. He was resolute in his love for her, loving her to the core. Perhaps, six years ago, the moment he saw her, he had fallen in love. Six years of yearning had only intensified his love for her.

Su Zimo was stunned, and the determination in his eyes deeply touched her heart.

Mu Yunxuan turned to look at Jun Zixi. "Mother, since you can't tolerate Su Zimo as the Holy Lord Lady, then let Yunhan take the position!" His words were clear.

For his mother's sake, he could be filial and virtuous, even if it meant giving up the position of the Holy Lord. But for his wife and children, they were treasures in his hands. Even if others despised or hated them, in his heart, they were the most precious treasures in the world.

"Mu Yunxuan, you..." Even though Su Zimo tried to remain calm, she couldn't contain her emotions at that moment. He was actually willing to give up the position of the Holy Lord of Cloud City for her.

"Why are you doing this?"

"Without you, Su Zimo, I, Mu Yunxuan, would have nothing."

"Bang!" Su Zimo heard the sound of her own heartbeat, causing her breath to become chaotic. She silently admitted to herself that her indifference was a lie.

And Mu Yunxuan's words left everyone present stunned.

"Let's go."

Mu Yunxuan swiftly led the three of them, mother and sons, towards the nine-winged golden dragon. Under the astonished gazes of everyone, they took off and flew away.

"Big brother!" Mu Yunhan hurriedly chased after them, wondering how things had turned out like this.

Jun Zixi stared in the direction Mu Yunxuan had left, tears streaming down her face. Was this what she had worked so hard for all her life, cultivating her son to become the future Holy Lord? Was he willing to give up his family for a woman?

"Zixi, why are you here? Xuan'er has left, and Cloud City will lose its future leader. Looking at his tearful wife, Mu Yufeng's heart ached. There's no benefit in being stubborn. Must we keep hurting each other like this?"

"How can there be no future? We still have Fan'er and Han'er. Since he is willing to let us go, why should we care about his feelings?"

With that, Jun Zixi turned and walked away.

"Zixi..."

Mu Yufeng was worried but quickly followed.

Mu Yunhan looked at Su Zimo and her sons.

"Let's all go back and rest."

Mu Yunxuan took Su Zimo and her sons to a courtyard not far from Cloud City.

Qing Feng had arrived early and had already prepared everything in the courtyard.

As they landed in the courtyard, a woman in red approached them.

Su Zimo noticed that Mu Yunxuan had such a stunning woman by his side.

The woman in red moved gracefully, her face elegant and refined. Her beautiful eyes were like clear pools of water. Whether in appearance or figure, she exuded an indescribable gentleness and loveliness.

"Xi Yue greets the Holy Lord."

Mu Yunxuan furrowed his brows and replied coldly, "Hmm! This is my wife and our two sons."

When he looked at Su Zimo, his expression softened again.

Xi Yue's eyes briefly flashed a trace of coldness as she witnessed Mu Yunxuan's transformation.

"Yes." Xi Yue raised her eyes, glanced at Su Zimo and her sons, and quickly lowered them.

"Xi Yue, no need to be so formal."

Su Zimo said coldly, her tone contrasting sharply with Xi Yue's gentle voice.

Xi Yue's eyebrows furrowed lightly, her gentle and graceful demeanor interrupted. Was this the Holy Lord's woman? It seemed she had no sense of respect?

"Wow! Sister, you look so beautiful!"

Su Qi squinted her eyes and smiled at Xi Yue.

Praised by Su Qi, Xi Yue shyly smiled, her cheeks flushing as she stole a glance at Mu Yunxuan.

Su Qi's eyes widened in confusion. There was such a beautiful woman by her father's side. Wasn't she afraid of catching fire? She found this woman interesting at first sight?

"Lady, let's go rest. We can discuss matters tomorrow."

Mu Yunxuan looked at Su Zimo tenderly.

Su Zimo nodded. She was tired from the events of the day and didn't want to speculate about the woman's intentions.

"Qing Feng, take Su Li and Su Qi to rest."

"As you command, Holy Lord."

Qing Feng received the order and approached them.

"Princes, please follow Qing Feng."

"Mother." Su Li raised his eyes and looked at Su Zimo.

"Go! Don't worry about me."

Su Zimo reassured her son with a gaze, and Su Qi and Su Li followed Qing Feng and left.

"Madam, let's go."

Mu Yunxuan sighed bitterly. The atmosphere had just eased with Li'er, and now with the trouble tonight, he feared that the progress they had made would be undone.

Xi Yue watched their departure, her face pale with disappointment. Was he truly in love with that woman?

After a while, Qing Feng approached.

Xi Yue quickly walked over.

"Qing Feng, why did the Holy Lord bring that woman here? Shouldn't Madame and the children be brought back to Cloud City?"

She asked casually, but her true intention was to understand why Mu Yunxuan had come here.
