You Say, If I Had Agreed to Be Your Fiancée Back Then, Would We Be Where We Are Today

A few days later, Di Haoao and Long Xinxin officially got married, their faces filled with smiles.

The Seven Heavenly Demons also found an opportunity to sneak in, waiting for the right moment to cause trouble.

On such a joyous occasion, representatives from various factions had come to attend, making it an inappropriate time for sabotage.

However, if successful, it would greatly restore the dignity the Seven Heavenly Demons had recently lost.

Unfortunately, it was all wishful thinking.

After discovering the poison of Liao Duci, Lin Xuan immediately began secretly investigating the attendees.

He quickly identified the Seven Demons, waiting for them to reveal themselves so he could swiftly subdue them.

The plan was to make the Seven Demons look like fools once again.

Though the plan might seem risky, Lin Xuan's strategy was foolproof, and capturing the Seven Heavenly Demons would be effortless.

But unfortunately, the North End Demon Lord was present.

This scene was merely to showcase the North End Demon Lord's power, as he boldly took the Seven Demons away in front of everyone.

This was the strength of one of the Four Great Heavenly Demons of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Li Siyi approached Su Luo and casually struck up a conversation.

"Your disguise today is terrible."

Su Luo was currently feasting, playing the role of an ordinary guest.

"It's good enough."

Of course, if his disguise were too perfect, Lin Xuan might not be able to find him.

At this moment, Di Haoao and Long Xinxin had begun their wedding ceremony, the scene brimming with happiness.

Li Siyi suddenly said, "Do you think if I had agreed to be your fiancée back then, we might have had a day like this?"

"Today," naturally referring to the wedding day.

Hearing this, Su Luo almost spat out his food. Why bring up the past out of nowhere?

Su Luo replied, "That would have been impossible. Back then, I was a spoiled brat. What could you possibly see in me?"

"I could have been attracted to your looks, couldn't I?"

"Good taste, but I know you wouldn't be swayed by appearances."

"You’ve seen right through me."

Indeed, if given another chance, without knowing Su Luo was acting, Li Siyi would never have fallen for him.

After a long pause, Li Siyi whispered, "I really do regret it now."

"What did you say?"

"I said it's almost time." Li Siyi was also aware of the Seven Heavenly Demons' plan.

Just then, as Di Haoao completed the wedding ceremony, the Seven Heavenly Demons leapt out.

"Congratulations on your wedding, Di Haoao. The Heavenly Demon Sect has specially..."

Before Qing Bukuang could finish speaking, a Nascent Soul expert stomped him down.

Similarly, the other six were easily subdued, their words cut off mid-sentence, an even greater humiliation.

They were all stunned. They had thought their infiltration was halfway successful, only to realize it was a trap.

All their planning had led to instant failure, making them look utterly pathetic.

Li Siyi drew a sword and pressed it against Su Luo's neck.

"Don’t move, or you’ll get hurt."

"The hearts of women are truly venomous. Just now you were talking about marriage, and now you’re threatening me with a sword." Su Luo obediently raised his hands, signaling he wouldn’t resist.

"How about we go up there and get married too? I wouldn’t mind."

"..."

"No guts."

"Ahem, let’s focus on the matter at hand."

Lin Xuan then stepped forward. "Thank you for coming at this time. Once this is over, it will be your end."

Lin Xuan planned to interrogate the Seven Demons before sending them to their deaths.

Such an opportunity was rare. Since they had delivered themselves to his doorstep, it would be a shame not to eliminate them.

Considering their deeds, they didn’t deserve to live even if they died ten times over.

Of course, Su Luo was the exception. He would find a way to let him escape.

However, Lin Xuan's plan, though well thought out, had one flaw...

"This won’t do. Our Heavenly Demon Sect isn’t that weak."

A figure appeared in the sky, and with a wave of his hand, a massive Kunpeng emerged from the clouds, leaping down.

The enormous shadow instantly covered the ground.

If the Kunpeng were to crash down, the entire venue would be destroyed.

Naturally, the cultivators wouldn’t allow it, and they all attacked the Kunpeng with their full strength.

Even Elder Wei joined in, unleashing his most powerful attacks.

Fortunately, the Kunpeng was soon torn apart, no longer a threat.

But by then, the Seven Heavenly Demons were already by the North End Demon Lord's side.

The North End Demon Lord said, "We’ve lost today, but there will be plenty of chances for revenge in the future. Don’t let your guard down."

With that, he vanished into the sky.

Elder Wei watched the departing North End Demon Lord with a sense of awe, shocked by his strength.

It had been a long time since Elder Wei had last seen the North End Demon Lord, and now it seemed his cultivation had surpassed even his own.

If there were three others with the same level of power, the Heavenly Demon Sect was indeed a force to be reckoned with.

Li Siyi watched Su Luo leave, unsure when they would meet again, but she was content with the time they had spent together.

Little Yu, too, looked at Su Luo with reluctance, unable to do anything. Yet, the bold idea she had entertained earlier kept resurfacing in her mind.

...

A day later, the North End Demon Lord returned to the Heavenly Demon Sect with Su Luo and the others.

Immediately, the North End Demon Lord went to the Left Envoy to claim his reward, boasting about his contributions. Without him, the Seven Demons would have been finished.

The Left Envoy had no choice but to give him some valuable resources.

The North End Demon Lord was delighted. Playing both sides had paid off. Loyalty? Loyalty couldn’t put food on the table.

After the events of the past few days, the Seven Heavenly Demons had been thoroughly humiliated and would not be venturing out anytime soon.

They all entered a period of intense training. Once strengthened, they would carry out their final mission, after which the Seven Heavenly Demons would fade from the scene.

Meanwhile, with Di Haoao's marriage alliance concluded, Lin Xuan and his group would now focus on battling the beast horde.

With intelligence from the Emperor Heaven Sect, dealing with the beast horde became much easier. Still, Lin Xuan played a crucial role in the battles.

Back at Su Luo's residence, it was Yun's turn to give him a massage.

Yun said, "You seem a bit regretful. Do you miss Little Yu?"

"Sort of." Su Luo sighed. It was hard not to miss someone who always put him first. "We’ll probably be in touch even less in the future."

"Why?"

"Our paths are diverging. I’m heading for greater heights, and so is Little Yu. We’ll only meet again at the peak."

"That sounds wonderful. I want to reach the peak with you, Su Luo."

"Of course. I’ll take you there."

Su Luo and Yun chatted casually. Initially, Su Luo had planned to walk this path alone.

But along the way, so many unexpected people had appeared.

Su Luo didn’t deliberately push them away. For example, Yun had been by his side for so long that he had grown accustomed to her presence. Whatever her motives, Su Luo no longer cared much.

On the contrary, if it came to the final showdown and Yun were to betray him, Su Luo would still help her fulfill some of her wishes, a parting gift of sorts.
