Originally, Ji Ke had been practicing hard in the Demon Clan Imperial Court for half a year.
For several months, she had been practicing in seclusion, ignoring what was going on outside the window.
She awakened her noble and powerful bloodline, and with the help of Tianluo Demon Emperor, she refined the mysterious demonic power in her soul.
Therefore, her strength developed rapidly, and she broke through to the Tianyuan realm within half a year.
After reaching the Tianyuan realm, she was filled with joy and excitement and couldn't wait to leave.
She just wanted to rush back to Zhongzhou City and see Ji Tianxing as soon as possible.
However, she did not expect that she would learn the news on the first day after she came out of quarantine.
Ji Tianxing is actually getting married, and he sent an invitation very early in the morning!
Ji Ke's mood was very complicated, and her heart was full of sourness and pain.
She stared blankly at the scarlet invitation on the table and the big word "囍" on the cover, but she didn't dare to reach out and touch it.
Silently, her clear eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and crystal tears fell quietly.
The Lingxing Demon Queen had not yet noticed her strangeness, but still said with a smile on her face: "Ji Tianxing is the number one genius in the human race, the son of the proud emperor who is famous all over the world, and has achieved great success in the past six months.
The girl who is worthy of him is naturally the proud daughter of the human race. She is Yun Yao, the jewel in the eye of Yun Ling Palace!
Speaking of which, Ke Ke, you and Yun Yao should be familiar with each other, after all, you were once fellow disciples..."
Having said this, the Lingxing Demon Queen looked at Ji Ke with gentle eyes.
Seeing Ji Ke's devastated expression, the Demon Queen of Lingxing suddenly showed doubts in her eyes, "Keke, what's wrong with you?"
"My child, why are you crying? What happened? Tell your mother quickly..."
The Demon Queen of Lingxing stretched out her hands, held Ji Ke's shoulders, and asked her with concern on her face.
Ji Ke woke up with a start, quickly raised her hand to wipe away the tears in her eyes, squeezed out a smile, shook her head and said: "Mother, I'm not crying, I'm fine...
I just learned the news suddenly...I am happy for brother Tianxing, yes, just happy for him!"
Lingxing Demon Queen is someone who has been here before, so how could she not see the strangeness in Ji Ke?
But she didn't understand the situation and couldn't say anything more. She could only hold Ji Ke in her arms and said with love: "Keke, my silly child... ugh!"
Ji Ke lay in her arms. After a moment of silence, he suppressed the sadness in his heart and calmed down.
She looked up at Lingxing Demon Queen and said calmly: "Mother, early tomorrow morning, I will go to Zhongzhou City to find my brother Kunwu, and we will go together to congratulate brother Tianxing."
The Demon Queen of Lingxing nodded and said seriously: "Well, this is what it should be.
You must let Kunwu accompany you and don't lose etiquette.
After all, you are now the princess of our Demon Clan, and every word and deed represents the Demon Clan Imperial Court."
The Spirit Star Demon Queen vaguely guessed something and understood something, so she warned Ji Ke like this.
Ji Ke was absent-minded and did not listen to her words. He just nodded silently.
Demon Queen Lingxing offered some subtle words of comfort before leaving Zhaohua Palace.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Ji Ke left the Demon Clan Imperial Court alone.
She boarded the Sky-Escape Tower, used the Zimu Sky-Escape Shuttle, and returned to Kunwu's manor outside Zhongzhou City.
In the splendid manor, there were many demon guards and maids, but Kunwu was not in the manor.
Ji Ke found out after asking the guards that Kun Wu had been in the emperor's mansion.
So, she asked the guards to go to the emperor's palace to report the news and inform Kunwu.
It was only in the evening that Kunwu rushed back to the manor from the emperor's palace.
When he returned to the manor, he couldn't wait to rush to Ji Ke's residence.
After seeing Ji Ke, he looked at Ji Ke up and down, and suddenly showed a happy smile on his face.
"Keke, you are finally out of seclusion! I didn't expect you to break through to the Tianyuan realm so quickly!
You have reached the Tianyuan realm at the age of eighteen, surpassing all your brothers, and you are the number one genius in our clan!"
Kunwu was shocked by Ji Ke's excellent talent and rapid growth, and was also happy for her.
But Ji Ke was not in high spirits and was not happy at all.
She looked at Kunwu, bowed slightly and saluted, "Brother Kunwu, you are back."
"Keke, what's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy?" Kunwu walked to her and sat down, asking with concern on his face.
Ji Ke shook his head and forced a smile, "No, why am I unhappy?
Brother Kunwu, after I came out of quarantine yesterday, my mother gave me an invitation, saying that brother Tianxing was getting married..."
Kunwu smiled and nodded: "Yes, Ji Tianxing is getting married to Yun Yao. The wedding is scheduled for the ninth day of next month, and there will be a big banquet in Zhongzhou City.
Now this news has spread throughout Zhongzhou and is known to everyone in the world.
Ke Ke, Tian Xing is your brother and Yun Yao is your senior sister, you must be happy for them, right?"
Ji Ke nodded slightly and asked: "Brother Kunwu, then why don't you accompany me to Tianxing Palace to meet Brother Tianxing and say congratulations to him?"
"Uh..." Kunwu was startled for a moment and then explained: "Keke, Ji Tianxing has not been in the Emperor's Mansion these two days, and seems to have gone to Yunling Palace for business.
How about you stay here first, and when he returns to the Emperor's Mansion, I will accompany you to see him?"
Ji Ke's eyes flashed with disappointment, and without saying anything more, she nodded and agreed.
Afterwards, Kunwu chatted with her for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
After Kun Wu left, she also left the manor, entered Zhongzhou City alone, and quietly arrived at the Forest of Divine Steles.
She waited in the Forest of Divine Steles for a long time before waiting for several guards from the Imperial Palace.
She took out a letter and gave it to one of the guards, asking him to deliver it to Tianxing Palace.
After the guards entered the emperor's palace, she turned and left the forest of sacred monuments, returned to the manor outside the city, and waited patiently.
…
Before I knew it, four days had passed.
Ji Tianxing rested in Yunling Palace for two days, and his strength and spirit returned to their peak. Then he left Yunling Palace and returned to the Emperor's Palace.
He went on his way alone without his father, so he let his father continue to live in Yunling Palace.
On the seventh day of the next month, when he went to Yunling Palace to marry Yunyao, he returned to Zhongzhou City with his father.
That evening, he hurried back to Zhongzhou City and returned to the emperor's palace.
As soon as he returned to Tianxing Palace, the guard guarding the gate bowed respectfully and took out a letter.
"See the Lord of the Territory!"
"Lord Territory Lord, there is a letter here for you!"
Ji Tianxing stopped, reached out to take the letter from the guard, and asked casually: "Who sent the letter?"
The guard reported truthfully: "This report to the Territory Lord was sent by the guards of the Imperial Palace. It is said that the person who sent the letter is a demon girl."
"Demon girl?" Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows, a little confused, and quickly opened the envelope.
When he took out the letter paper and looked at it, he saw a line of beautiful small words written on the paper.
"Brother Tianxing, I'm waiting for you in Guiyanlin. See you there or not."
