Chapter One Hundred and Sixteen: Revenge

At this moment, she was almost shattered, her body trembling with pain. Kneeling on the ground, her makeup smeared by tears, the glaring red embroidered robe resembled a pool of blood.

Junfeng only then noticed that Jiang Lingshuang had come dressed in a wedding gown. The exquisite makeup was ruined, her hairpins scattered, and her once lustrous hair now covered her face...

"Qinshi, he's Yulanxing. He's not a bad person. Can you let him go, please?" Her breath was weak, her words barely audible, her tone almost fading away.

Junfeng remained silent, glancing at Yuebai, then at Jiang Lingshuang, before finally fixing his gaze on Yulanxing.

His eyes seemed to carry a strange emotion, unsettling.

"You bastard, Yulanxing! You promised to marry me, promised to protect me for life. I came to find you in the wedding dress you chose, and you're not here!" Jiang Lingshuang cried out in agony, almost screaming until her voice was hoarse, until she was completely exhausted and collapsed weakly.

Yulanxing had been behaving strangely since earlier, as if struggling with something, as if wanting to tear something apart.

Suddenly, his eyes widened, bloodshot, as he stared at Junfeng in horror, then lunged at him.

Junfeng dodged to the side, but unexpectedly, Yulanxing changed direction and rushed towards Jiang Lingshuang.

"No!" Junfeng exclaimed inwardly.

The Soul Devourer was swung, and a piercing scream followed...

Yulanxing landed beside Jiang Lingshuang, enduring the pain as he held her in his arms, frantically trying to wipe away her tears. But his fingertips stained her pale face with crimson.

He panicked, truly panicked. He dared not move her a single inch, only held her tighter, trembling uncontrollably.

"Shuang'er, don't sleep... Open your eyes and look at me. I'm back. Please wake up and look at me..."

The person in his arms weakly opened her eyes, gazing at his face for a moment, before a faint smile appeared on her pale face, and her eyes closed again.

The despair in his eyes gradually faded, leaving them empty. Yulanxing gently placed Jiang Lingshuang on the ground, turned to Junfeng, and said, "I made a deal with the Demon Lord. He helped me save Jiang Lingshuang, and I sold him my body. Now... he's inside me. Just kill us together!"

Yulanxing smiled calmly, closing his eyes peacefully.

This time, Junfeng showed no mercy. With a swift movement, the Soul Devourer pierced him to the bone, dispersing his soul and essence into the void.

It was unclear how much time had passed before Junfeng finally moved. He raised his eyes to the sky, where the moon had retreated beyond reach, and the stars had faded from sight.

"...It's time to go..."

He murmured to himself.

With that, he walked away without looking back.

Yuebai stayed behind, watching him like a statue for half the night, as he stood motionless.

He didn't know where Junfeng was going, so he had no choice but to follow, trotting behind him silently, like a walking block of ice.

They walked, paused, Junfeng occasionally glanced at the sky, sometimes looking around.

What exactly was he searching for?

When Junfeng found Yunsu, she was sitting cross-legged on the ground, the monk in front of her lying peacefully on the grass mat, eyes closed.

As if sensing his presence, Yunsu opened her eyes. In the candlelight, her swollen eyes were faintly visible.
