In the cycle of reincarnation, she was also the Saintess of the righteous path, and Xiao Ye was a despicable demon.
Gu Xiaosu felt that the relationship between the two of them in the cycle was similar to her current predicament.
A lowly prisoner.
A jailer.
Just like her now!
Gu Xiaosu coughed twice and weakly lifted her gaze.
She caught a glimpse of a graceful figure by the door. Xiao Xi's eyes were looking at the scene.
Gu Xiaosu, dressed as a bride, held a dagger in her hand and looked at Xiao Ye with icy eyes.
"Demon, even though I'm marrying you, if you dare to mess around, I'll kill you!"
She was the Saintess of the Zheng Valley Sect, abducted to the Demonic Cult and now forced to marry Xiao Ye.
Gu Xiaosu regretted it immensely. If she hadn't been leading her senior brothers and others on a trial,
how could she have encountered this demon and now become his wife?
"My wife, on our wedding night, aren't you coming to the bridal chamber with me?"
Xiao Ye was unconcerned, his face drawing closer.
Gu Xiaosu, startled, thrust the dagger in her hand fiercely.
However, with a snap,
the dagger fell to the ground.
Gu Xiaosu saw Xiao Ye shake his head helplessly. His powerful strength controlled her.
"Tsk tsk, from today onwards, you are my wife. Why are you still treating your husband so roughly?"
Pale and broken, Gu Xiaosu found herself unable to move.
Facing the demon Xiao Ye, her beautiful eyes widened in panic, "No... If you don't release Senior Brother Li and the others, don't even think about having marital relations with me."
She would rather die than give herself to this demon. If Xiao Ye hadn't used her senior brothers to threaten her,
Gu Xiaosu, whose master was the Sect Leader of the Zheng Valley Sect, believed they would come to her rescue soon.
"Do you still have the right to resist? I am your demon husband."
Xiao Ye flashed a smile, gazing at her flustered little face.
Xiao Ye's fingers caressed Gu Xiaosu's cheek, and her heart pounded fiercely.
She choked out, "If you dare to touch me... I'll die for you to see."
Xiao Ye saw Gu Xiaosu, dressed in her wedding attire, weeping miserably like a pear blossom battered by rain.
He stopped teasing her, his dark eyes filled with complexity, "Xiaosu, have you forgotten me?"
Gu Xiaosu, "?"
She saw Xiao Ye unbutton his clothes with a nostalgic tone.
Gu Xiaosu panicked and asked confusedly, "What are you trying to do?"
Xiao Ye revealed his sturdy physique. On his left chest was a hideous scar.
It was about ten centimeters long, looking like a crawling centipede.
"Shen Tan Lin."
As Xiao Ye uttered the name, Gu Xiaosu was instantly stunned.
She saw Xiao Ye's serious expression, and Gu Xiaosu's breathing became rapid.
"You are that one from seven years ago... the boy who saved me..."
Seven years ago, Gu Xiaosu was not yet a Saintess, but a junior disciple in the sect.
She went down the mountain to play and entered Shen Tan Lin.
Because she had spirit stones from the sect on her, the naive Gu Xiaosu was easily recognized as carrying immense treasures.
She was targeted by a rogue cultivator who coveted Gu Xiaosu's magical artifacts.
He chased her frantically in Shen Tan Lin. At that time, she was just a weakling in the Golden Core stage.
As a sword was thrust at her, a boy who rushed in suddenly saved her.
He took a sword to his left chest and killed the rogue cultivator.
Gu Xiaosu tearfully dragged the boy, trying to get out of Shen Tan Lin.
She told Xiao Ye at the time that she wanted to repay him.
After they got out of Shen Tan Lin, the dying boy was pushed off a cliff by an elder of the Zheng Valley Sect.
Gu Xiaosu thought this boy was surely dead.
But, he was the current master of the Demonic Cult?
She stood there, stunned, tears of excitement falling.
"Wife, don't cry."
Xiao Ye's fingertips wiped away Gu Xiaosu's tears.
"Wife, have you changed your mind?"
Gu Xiaosu shook her head blankly, and she suddenly grabbed Xiao Ye's arm.
"I just didn't expect it was you... Why did you become the leader of the Demonic Cult?"
In the eyes of the righteous path, the Demonic Cult was evil.
"In the past, when I fell off the cliff and was seriously injured, I was rescued by the Demonic Cult and used as an ingredient for medicine... I survived a near-death experience and became what you see now."
Xiao Ye said calmly, omitting the hardships he endured to become the Demon Lord.
Gu Xiaosu was moved for a moment, and she looked deeply at Xiao Ye.
"I'm sorry... I didn't know the elder would try to kill you back then."
She also valued right and wrong and dared to love and hate.
Xiao Ye was her savior, so Gu Xiaosu could not hate him.
"As long as you are willing, be my wife."
Xiao Ye smiled faintly, picking up the wine for the wedding night.
"Shall we drink the cross-cupped wine?"
