"Brother Long, your rise will not only attract the attention of the Six Great Sects, but also Little Whirlwind."
"Why?"
Long Ao was surprised. Under normal circumstances, shouldn't he be the one to challenge Little Whirlwind?
"Brother Long, you don't know this, but Little Whirlwind is famous for being a battle maniac. He knows that Hei Mo is much stronger than him, but Little Whirlwind still refuses to give up. For three years, he fought once a month without stopping."
After hearing Linghu Ning's words, Long Ao was curious about Little Whirlwind. Battle maniac?
Long Ao knew very well how big the gap between the Human King Realm and the Transformation Realm was.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Brother Long, although you have rejected the invitation of the Fire Sect and the Sound of Thunder Sect, this matter is not so simple."
Ice Soul's face was full of worry. She continued, "This time, the two Young Master of the Fire Sect and the Sound of Thunder Sect personally invited you, but they were rejected on the spot. I believe that they will not let this go. So, Brother Long, from now on, you must be extra careful."
Long Ao knew that Ice Soul was worried about him. He nodded and smiled, "I will. Come, let's drink. Tonight, we won't go home until we are drunk."
Ever since he started out, Long Ao knew that he did not have many friends, but he did not regret it. This was because when it came to friends, quality was not quantity. It could be said that friends could help you when you were in danger, but what about bad friends?
Because of this, Long Ao had always been careful when making friends.
Fire City.
In a luxurious restaurant.
The moon was high in the sky, and the wine was singing.
The three of them drank one cup after another, forgetting all their grudges and troubles. They drank like this for an entire night.
Ghost King Sect.
Tianzhou had a total of Six Great Sects. Ghost King Sect was one of them. Its strength was considered average.
Back then, Ghost King Ao Tian was heavily injured and was accidentally saved by the Golden-sun Sect's Master. For some reason, Ghost King Ao Tian agreed to Zhang Zhihang and Aoxue's marriage.
According to the agreement that year, Aoxue and Zhang Zhihang would be married twenty-seven days later. However, Aoxue had a condition, and that was that the wedding must be held in the Ghost King Sect.
In order to get Aoxue, Zhang Zhihang did not refuse at all. Under normal circumstances, this wedding should be held in the Golden-sun Sect, not in the Ghost King Sect.
Ghost King Peak, at the back of the mountain, there was an extremely secluded but extremely beautiful lake.
Sitting quietly by the lake, Aoxue looked exceptionally beautiful at this moment. She reached out her right hand and gently stirred the lake water.
"Long Ao, I'm sorry. For the sect, for my father, I had to do this."
The strength of the Golden-sun Sect was far above that of the Ghost King Sect. What was more, the Golden-sun Sect had a marriage contract in hand. If the Ghost King Sect broke the contract, it would lose face. He was afraid that the Golden-sun Sect would not let it go.
"Aoxue, you will be married in twenty-seven days. I really don't want to part with you."
Without even turning her head, Aoxue's face was full of bitterness and sadness. As the daughter of the Master of the Ghost King Sect, although she was superior, she could not even choose the person she loved. Was such an identity really worth it?
But fate was like this, and no one could change it.
Putting away the bitterness and sadness on her face, Aoxue turned around and said with a smile, "Father, did you invite the other four sects to this wedding?"
Ao Tian nodded. He was also a little unhappy, but things had come to this point, and he could only make the best of it. For the sect, it was worth sacrificing his daughter's happiness.
"I have invited the Blood Sea Sect, the Golden-sun Sect, the Golden-sun Sect, the Flame Sect, and the Sound of Thunder Sect, and even the Thunder Empire and the Flame Empire. If there is no accident, the Master of the four sects will all come."
In the eyes of others, it was the most luxurious and proud wedding in the world to be able to invite the Master of the four sects and the emperors of the two empires, but Aoxue's heart was full of sadness.
If she could not marry the person she loved, no matter how good the wedding was, what was the point?
"Aoxue, what else do you want? As long as I can do it, I will help you to do it."
Seeing his daughter like this, Ao Tian could not bear to do it, but thinking of the sect, he could only do so. As the Master of the Ghost King Sect, he had to first consider the interests of the sect.
Shaking her head, Aoxue said, "Father, I don't want anything, but I want to ask you for one thing. I have never asked you for anything in my life."
Sighing deeply in his heart again, Ao Tian said, "Say it."
"Father, no matter what happens in the future, no matter when, the sect must protect Long Ao and not let anyone hurt him, okay?"
He felt that something was going to happen, but Ao Tian could not figure out what was wrong.
Nodding, Ao Tian did not hesitate and agreed, "Aoxue, I promise you, no matter when, no matter what happens, I will protect Long Ao's life."
"Father, on the day of the wedding, you must guard the entrance and not let him come."
Ao Tian naturally knew who Ao Xue was referring to. He didn't continue to say anything. He turned around and left. In a short while, he had already disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the disappearing figure, Aoxue suddenly said to herself, "Father, I will return everything I owe you on the day of the wedding, but I must not marry Zhang Zhihang. I was born as a member of the Long family, and I will die as a ghost of the Long family."
Aoxue sat back down by the small lake and quietly looked at the small lake in front of her, her face full of determination.
"Long Ao, after I die, I hope you will not be sad. I will protect you in the underworld, take care."
The reason why Ao Tian agreed to the Golden-sun Sect, other than the marriage, was because in Ao Tian's eyes, Long Ao and the Golden-sun Sect could not be compared at all. If Long Ao was not a disciple of the Scarlet Fire Town's Long family, but a third or even second level disciple, perhaps today's result would be different.
This was the result of strength. In addition to personal strength, the strength of one's family and backer was equally important. At least in the eyes of ordinary people, no matter how strong one's talent was, they could not compete with a force.
For this point, Ao Xue was very clear in her heart. It was precisely because of this that Ao Xue chose to compromise and choose an extreme approach. She chose to commit suicide on the day of the wedding. First, she and Zhang Zhihang were considered to be married. Second, as long as she died, then there was no need to enter the bridal chamber. Even if she went to the netherworld, she was still Long Ao's woman.
As for Aoxue's thoughts, Long Ao did not know, and neither did Ao Tian.
Ghost King Sect, the scenery of the Ghost King Peak was still as spectacular, but on the peak, there was a woman waiting alone.
