Even if the three members of Yan Chixia, Sima Sanniang, and Yan Hongye's family were extremely powerful, it would be a drop in the bucket to deal with the turmoil caused by the out-of-control demons in the human world.
Xuanxin Zhengzong was faced with this situation and was powerless.
In response, Yan Chixia asked Qiye, who was pretending to be a poor man in the city, to come out and take charge of the overall situation again.
Jing Wuyuan also led the four sages of the Demon Palace to come and begged Qiye to be reinstated as the Holy King.
Just as Qiye was thinking about it, the time for the demon to attack Qisha was coming, and both Nie Xiaoqian and him had the mark of the demon on their palms.
Qiye decided to commit suicide in order to prevent himself from getting into trouble.
At this time, in order to prevent chaos in the demonic world, Jin Guang led the four generals of Xuanxin in a sneak attack and captured Jing Wuyuan, the four sages of the Demon Palace and other demons to the main altar of Xuanxin Authentic Sect.
Qiye, Yan Chixia and others came to visit, but Jin Guang wanted to threaten Qiye and Nie Xiaoqian's marriage with the lives of everyone in the Demon Palace.
The reason given by Jin Guang is that once Qiye dies, although he can avoid the catastrophe of seven generations of enemies, the demonic people will inevitably emerge in the human world without his leadership, causing chaos in the world.
Therefore, for the safety of the world, Qiye not only cannot die, but also must marry Nie Xiaoqian.
Not only that, Jin Guang also offered generous conditions.
If Qiye is willing to marry Nie Xiaoqian, he will ask the current emperor to surrender to the Yinyue Dynasty.
The demon palace will be turned into a city. From then on, humans and demons will coexist.
The coexistence of humans and demons has been Qiye's longing.
But if he doesn't agree, everyone in Jin Guang's hands will die.
Qiye did not want to force Nie Xiaoqian with this, but Nie Xiaoqian, who understood her own life experience, made a choice and agreed to marry Qiye.
To show his sincerity, Jin Guang first let go of all the demons, and then took Qiye to meet the saint.
After receiving the emperor's personal promise, Qiye returned with the released demons.
Ning Caichen, who came together, heard the news that Nie Xiaoqian was willing to marry Qiye. Although he was annoyed, he also respected Nie Xiaoqian's choice.
The next day, I left a letter of blessing and returned to my hometown, Sunrise Mountain City.
When arranging the wedding, Empress Dowager Yinyue proposed to invite Qiye's biological mother Ning Mu and younger brother Ning Caichen to watch the ceremony.
The reason given is that if a mother misses her biological son's wedding, it must be the biggest regret in her life.
Although Qiye had concerns, she still obeyed the Queen Mother Yinyue's arrangement and entrusted Hongye to deliver the invitation.
Ning's mother in Sunrise Mountain City was also very happy after receiving the invitation.
Although I was a little surprised and surprised to hear that the person Qiye was going to marry was Nie Xiaoqian, I was still very happy.
In order not to put his mother in danger, Ning Caichen also chose to go together.
The three of them embarked on the road to the capital together.
The night before the wedding, Qi Ye watched the moon alone, full of longing for the future. "As long as tomorrow passes, humans and demons can coexist. Xiaoqian and I don't have to suffer the pain of being trapped in seven lives, and there will be no more in the world."
There is a disaster."
At this time, the familiar sound of the flute sounded again.
"It's Master Quezhou." After saying that, Qi Ye came to the waterless ocean again.
Quezhou Yifandu appeared and started with the familiar words again, "Shengjun, would you like some tea?"
"Thank you, Master." Qiye was already accustomed to this, so he picked up the tea cup in front of him and drank all the tea in it.
When the tea entered my mouth, the taste was completely different from the previous two times, "Hmm~"
Quezhou asked: "Sage, do you have any concerns?"
"This time the tea is different from the previous one."
"What's the difference?"
Qiye described his experience of drinking tea this time, "It was bitter and astringent."
Hearing this, Quezhou sighed deeply, "Alas~"
When Qiye felt confused, Quezhou Yifandu said: "You should know, and you have the right to know, at this last moment, all the truth about the City Without Tears."
Qiye didn't understand and asked: "What is the truth about the City without Tears? What does Master Quezhou mean by this? Hasn't the City Without Tears disappeared with Gan Jiang?"
"Although the City without Tears has disappeared, you have never understood the cause and effect behind it." Quezhou began to tell Qiye the deepest truth about the City without Tears, including the Demon Soul.
After Qiye heard this, he said, "I didn't expect that all this was caused by the demon soul."
Quezhou asked: "After hearing this secret, Holy Lord, do you still plan to hold the wedding tomorrow?"
Facing Quezhou Yifandu's inexplicable question, Qiye couldn't help but be stunned.
Then, he replied: "Master does not approve of Qiye marrying Xiaoqian."
Quezhou asked at this time: "People's hearts are unpredictable. It doesn't matter whether I agree or disagree. What matters is what the Holy Lord thinks in his heart. Can he really resolve this catastrophe for the common people?"
Qiye replied: "This matter has been promised by the Holy One, and the day when humans and demons coexist is not far away. Perhaps, the master plans to personally take action to resolve this catastrophe."
Que Zhou said this: "I still say the same thing, I will not take action until the last moment, unless you can convince me."
Qiye asked: "How to persuade?"
"Tell me, should we resolve this catastrophe?" Quezhou Yifandu asked his question.
Qiye gave his own method, "The combination of Xiaoqian and I will bring an end to this grudge of seven generations."
"This is not the answer!" Quezhou Yifandu said in an unprecedented tone.
Then, his tone slowed down and he said: "Since the Holy Lord has a choice, Quezhou will not say more. Before leaving, I will give the Holy Lord one more word, 'Life is impermanent, and cause and effect are difficult to understand. You are not alone on the road.'
"
After saying that, he saw smoke covering his eyes, and Qiye returned to the familiar scene.
Thinking about the meaning of Quezhou Yifandu's words, "Master Quezhou's attitude this time is different from before. From what the master said, could it be that tomorrow's wedding is a fraud?"
Thinking of this, Qiye checked the scene of tomorrow's wedding just in case.
After repeated checks and nothing unusual, he went to the residence of the four generals Xuanxin to see if they had other plans.
After all, they are the pillars of the Xuanxin Sect.
If Jin Guang has plans tomorrow, he will definitely inform them in advance.
But after seeing them drinking and talking with the four sages of the Demon Palace, they lived in peace.
Seeing this scene in the dark, Qiye felt that he was using the heart of a villain to judge the belly of a gentleman.
Maybe I misunderstood Master Quezhou's meaning, but that's not necessarily the case.
Thinking that nothing happened, Qiye returned to his residence and waited for the arrival of tomorrow.
On the other hand, Yan Hongye took Ning's mother and Ning Caichen to the capital to attend Qiye's wedding, driving the carriage day and night.
Because of the bumpy days, Ning Caichen, who was a filial servant, felt sorry for Ning's mother, "Mom, when we get to the next town, let's find an inn to rest."
Ning's mother replied: "No, tomorrow is Qiye's wedding. As a mother, I already owe Qiye a lot. I can't miss his wedding anymore."
"In that case, I'll ask Miss Hongye to speed up the carriage and get to the capital as soon as possible." After saying that, Ning Caichen stood up and came to open the curtain, and was about to speak.
Then I heard Yan Hongye say in a very serious tone: "Scholar, hurry in. No matter what happens after that, you and your mother don't come out."
