She had never accepted any favors from the Xu family. Why would she sacrifice herself for a family she did not even know?
Xu Rong completely gave up on trying to convince Xianer. Her expression turned cold. "I'll ask you one last time. Are you going to marry him or not?"
"No! I won't marry even if I die! "Xianer was resolute.
Xu Rong's killing intent flared. "Fine! If you don't marry, I'll kill Su Yu right now! To tell you the truth, he's in the Outer Sanctum! "
"Brother Su Yu is here?" Xianer's face lit up. However, Xu Rong's murderous aura caused Xianer's heart to sink.
"Grandma, don't! Don't kill Brother Su Yu! "Xianer panicked, grabbing Xu Rong's arm.
Xu Rong looked back. "Then let me ask you. Are you going to marry him or not?"
Xianer bit her lips, her eyes filled with tears. She was hesitant.
"Hmph! Grandma is going to kill Su Yu right now! I'll give up on you completely! "Xu Rong swung her arm.
"No, I … I won't kill him, I … I'll marry him!" The bottom line she had held onto for so long finally crumbled.
She could die of thirst or hunger, but she could not watch Su Yu die.
Large teardrops rolled down her cheeks, dripping onto her arms.
From gentle to cold, just like Xianer's heart.
She raised her eyes, staring at the old woman in front of her.
She had called herself her grandma, but she had never felt any kinship from her.
More than that, she had felt the coldness of a commodity in this old woman's eyes.
Blood ties, if there was no long-term company, how could there be kinship?
"I promise you, I'll marry him … but I hate you!" Xianer cried, but this was the first time the word "hate" had come out of her mouth.
Xu Rong's heart trembled. Looking at Xianer's hatred, she felt a tinge of regret.
Had she gone too far? If Xianer hated the Xu family in the future, wouldn't she lose more than she gained?
But now that things had come to this, there was no time for regret.
Furthermore, Xianer was still young. When she grew up, she would understand the difficulties of the world. Perhaps she should be grateful.
"Grandma is doing this for your own good …" Xu Rong repeated, trying to ease the rift.
However, Xian 'er's teary eyes were filled with hatred. She clenched her fists tightly and coldly interrupted, "You're not my grandmother!"
Xu Rong was slightly stunned. She knew that the last trace of kinship between her and Qin Xianer was gone.
"Take care of yourself! If you dare to commit suicide or escape, I will kill Su Yu immediately! "With a light grunt, Xu Rong left with her hands behind her back.
Creak —
The door was closed again, and Xian 'er was put under house arrest again.
Trapped in loneliness, she could no longer pretend to be strong.
Squatting down, she hugged her knees and sobbed.
Tears dripped onto the floor, moist like blooming flowers.
"Brother Su Yu … I'm sorry … I can't be your bride." Xianer's lonely and sad sobs reverberated in the empty house.
The two maids outside the door showed sympathy on their faces.
"The Xu family is really heartless in order to curry favor with Cao Xuan!"
However, compared to Su Yu, Cao Xuan is more suitable for Qin Xianer. One day, she might be grateful to the Xu family for being heartless.
Two days later, the fallen star where the tenth elder was staying was decorated with lanterns and colored banners.
Everyone in the Liuxian faction knew that today was the wedding of the tenth elder's last disciple, Cao Xuan!
Cao Xuan had invited all the disciples from the Inner Sanctum that he was on good terms with.
Master Han Zhi, the grandmaster, the Great Elder, and the other seven elders all congratulated him.
Even though the nine elders were competing with each other openly and covertly, they were still amiable on the surface, not shedding all pretense of cordiality.
Thus, they did not have to attend Cao Xuan's wedding. However, if they did not attend, it would hurt their relationship. Thus, they all came to support him.
Only one elder was invited, but did not attend.
That was the ugly Second Elder.
The Second Elder was perverse and temperamental. No one could be on good terms with her.
She was so powerful that she was ranked third in the faction, just below the Faction Master and the Great Elder. Everyone wanted to befriend her.
However, her temperament was strange, and those who tried to befriend her were rebuffed. There were even a few who, for some unknown reason, were almost beaten to death.
Over time, the people of the Liuxian faction kept a respectful distance from her.
In the eyes of many disciples, the Second Elder was the existence that no one dared to provoke. She was temperamental and often attacked disciples. Coupled with her powerful abilities, no one dared to seek revenge if they were bullied.
Now, it was completely reasonable that she did not attend despite being invited. Many of the elders even heaved a sigh of relief.
Cao Xuan wore a fiery red robe. He was in high spirits and full of smiles as he entertained the guests.
"Congratulations Senior Cao for winning a beauty." Yuan Hu's injuries had recovered, his fat face filled with a fawning expression.
Cao Xuan smiled and returned the greeting. "Junior Yuan, don't be anxious. When you become an adult, I will introduce you to a few outstanding female disciples of the faction!"
Yuan Hu laughed. "Sister-in-law has the bloodline of the Nine Phoenixes. Her potential is shocking and she is as beautiful as a fairy. Junior, how can you enjoy the blessings of a senior?"
In his heart, Yuan Hu was carefree!
Su Yu, Su Yu! So what if you are strong? After you die, your women will become my Senior's objects!
At this moment, Sun Tianyang walked over. His sinister face revealed a rare smile. "Congratulations on your wedding, Junior Cao."
"Greetings, Uncle-Master Sun." Cao Xuan's seniority was lower than Sun Tianyang's, so he naturally had to call him Uncle-Master.
But there was no due respect. After all, Cao Xuan's abilities were clear for all to see.
"How are your injuries?" Cao Xuan smiled with concern.
Sun Tianyang's expression froze. He nodded coldly. "My injuries have recovered. I have to thank Su Yu. Because of his battle, I had a breakthrough and was on the verge of becoming a Third Level Holy King! If I were to fight him again, I would definitely defeat him in one move! "
Being defeated by Su Yu was a humiliation that Sun Tianyang could not forget.
Unfortunately, Su Yu was already dead. He had lost the chance to avenge himself.
The elders quietly sipped their tea. Their eyes inadvertently swept past the three disciples. There was a strange look in their eyes.
Among the faction's four core disciples, the Great Elder and the Tenth Elder occupied two of them.
One was Cao Xuan and the other was the Great Elder's disciple. They were currently in seclusion.
Among the new generation of disciples, there were people with extraordinary talents like Sun Tianyang and Yuan Hu. The elders could not help but be envious.
But what made them feel indignant was that the two of them had ignored the faction's rules because of their power!
According to the rules, the elders of the faction could only take in two disciples.
One old and one new.
The goal was to prevent the elders from viciously competing for disciples. After the competition, there would be too many disciples to take care of, resulting in a waste of talent.
But Han Zhi, who already had Cao Xuan and Yuan Hu, wanted to marry Qin Xianer to become his disciple!
On the surface, Qin Xianer was not Han Zhi's disciple but Cao Xuan's wife. But in reality, she was someone that Han Zhi was grooming as a disciple.
Once she became Cao Xuan's wife, it would be inconvenient for the other elders to take Qin Xianer as a disciple. She would become Han Zhi's.
One had to know that Qin Xianer had the rare Medium Grade Dark Class constitution!
Such potential was rarely seen in history.
For example, Cao Xuan had the Medium Grade Dark Class constitution. Now that he had reached the Dragon Realm, he would definitely become an elder of the faction in a few decades.
If nothing unexpected happened to Qin Xianer, she would also become an elder of the faction in the future.
A faction groomed two generations of elders. Including the Great Elder, the teacher and the disciple would control four seats for the faction's elders.
At that time, even the Faction Master might not be able to hold his position.
But now, Han Zhi had taken over three disciples. This caused many elders to feel indignant.
However, the Great Elder was powerful. If he joined forces with Han Zhi, ordinary elders might not dare to go against him.
As for the Faction Master, his abilities were comparable to the Great Elder's. If there was no need, he would not fall out with him.
This was a secret of the Liuxian faction. Many elders were worried that there would be a change in the Liuxian faction soon.
As for going against the two of them, it was not that no elder had tried. There was once an elder of the faction who went against the two of them.
In the end … he died suddenly!
Han Zhi smiled and sat on the seats for the elders.
He was already over a hundred years old, but he looked like he was only forty years old. He was handsome and had a square face.
Beside him was Xi Ruolan. She sat quietly and quietly, watching the wedding ceremony.
Behind her was the Deputy Clan Master of the External Affairs Division, Qin Gang.
"The time has come, invite the bride into the hall," the emcee shouted.
Among the crowd of flower maidens was a petite figure. She wore a golden phoenix crown and a dragon and phoenix embroidered robe.
Her handsome face was like that of a wild elf.
She was beautiful and bright.
She wore light makeup and was lovely.
Only her bright eyes were glistening with tears, and they were dim and lifeless.
Xu Rong had a smile on her face, but she threatened coldly, "Remember my words, if you dare to ruin the wedding, I will take Su Yu's life immediately! Stop crying! Smile! "
Her eyes were swollen, but Xianer tried her best to squeeze out a smile.
It was stiff and lifeless. It did not seem like a smile, but more like a cry.
Many elders noticed this scene. They knew that Qin Xianer was being forced. But even if they knew this, they could not argue.
"I hate you! I will hate you forever! "Qin Xianer calmly said.
Xu Rong let out a cold grunt, "One day, you will thank me! Go in! After the ceremony, you will be Cao Xuan's bride. From then on, you will have nothing to do with Su Yu! "
Stepping into the hall, Xianer's beautiful face shocked everyone.
She had such an aura at the age of fourteen. When she grew up, she would definitely be a beauty that could topple cities and countries.
Cao Xuan's eyes were burning. Even though he had been ordered to take Xianer as his wife, it was only a temporary measure. If he could obtain such a beautiful wife, such a wonderful thing would be hard to come by.
Yuan Hu was envious. Many of the youths who had come with their elders were also conquered by Xianer's beauty.
Unfortunately, she was wearing a wedding dress and was about to become Cao Xuan's wife.
In his heart, he felt a sense of regret.
The joyous music traveled from the Inner Sanctum to the Outer Sanctum.
Above the cold star, inside the arena, two disciples were doing their daily cleaning.
Hearing the joyous music, they could not help but look over with envy, "Is there anyone getting married in the Inner Sanctum?"
"For it to be so grand, it must be extraordinary."
Crack —
Suddenly, just as the two of them were cleaning the central ring, a cracking sound of ice came from the bottom of the ring beneath their feet.
The Icy Azure Lake was sealed beneath the arena!
Three days ago, after Su Yu's heaven-defying battle, the lake had been sealed again.
The sudden noise caused the expressions of the two to change. They hurriedly left the arena, perking up their ears to listen.
Crack —
Crack, crack —
It sounded like a thunderstorm in summer, incessantly ringing in their ears!
"Not good! There's a situation in the Icy Azure Lake, quickly inform the External Affairs Division! "
Creak —
Rumble —
But they did not have the time to report it.
In the Icy Azure Lake, there was a deafening sound of impact!
Rumble —
With a deafening roar, a hundred-meter-tall ice mountain appeared out of thin air beneath the arena, shattering the sealed arena!
The dark green ice emitted a shocking chill, as if it wanted to pierce through the arena of ten thousand people!
It was covered in frost, descending upon the world!
The entire Icy Azure Lake was destroyed by the terrifying ice mountain!
"What … what is that?" A disciple was shocked, trembling as he pointed at the peak of the hundred-meter-tall ice mountain.
There was an ice sculpture of a purple-robed, silver-haired youth standing at the peak of the mountain!
Under the sunlight, the ice sculpture was ravaged, reflecting a rainbow glow.
His facial features and figure were lifelike.
"It's … the King of the Fallen Star, Su Yu!"
"His, his corpse was sent out by the ice mountain!"
Crack —
But at that moment!
With a crisp sound, the ice sculpture shattered, turning into countless ice shards that flew into the sky!
The figure of the youth was unsealed from the ice.
A pair of tightly shut eyes slowly opened at that moment!
The left eye was purple, the right eye was red.
It was as if the mysterious eyes of a king stood at the peak of the ice mountain, overlooking the vast earth!
The two disciples were swept by the gaze.
Puff —
One of the First Level Holy Kings vomited blood on the spot, kneeling on the ground!
That gaze seemed to be able to extinguish his life force!
What … what kind of terrifying gaze was that? Was it a deity?
The purple and red eyes were ethereal and distant, looking at the Inner Sanctum, the festive grounds decorated with lanterns and colored banners.
"Xianer …" A low sigh reverberated throughout the peak of the ice mountain, throughout the arena, and throughout the vast Nine Heavens.
With just a sigh, the entire world cooled down!
It was as if that sigh had come from an ancient king of ice and snow!
Crack —
The two First Level Holy Kings heard the sigh, their bodies shivering!
A thin layer of ice covered the bodies of the two, causing them to be inconsolably horrified!
A sigh had caused them to freeze?
Fear, fear, awe, agitation, and excitement filled their hearts!
They realized one thing!
Su Yu had finally returned!
Just as he had said that day when he fell into the icy lake, he would eventually return!
He had defied the natural order and returned once again!
The two of them trembled with excitement, looking up.
But they discovered that the peak of the ice mountain was empty.
The silver-haired, purple-robed king with purple and red eyes had long disappeared.
