Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

As he spoke, Li Xiuyuan tapped Bi Qing's forehead.

"Ooh!"

It must be said that Biqing went to great lengths to save Guangliang.

Wuxin Cave is located 300 miles southwest of Lingyin Temple. In the dense forest above, with its intertwined branches, sunlight rarely reaches the ground.

The rare slivers of sunlight that managed to escape were like brightly colored insects, seemingly crawling on the moss and pale red withered ferns.

Rouge led Guangliang back to her cave. As she entered her home, she found the cave pitch black except for a few places where light shone. Guangliang was thrown to the ground, and she said coldly, "This is the Heartless Cave. Don't even think about leaving."

As she spoke, she sat deep inside the cave, watching the water cascading down from above.

"Ouch!"

Guangliang cried out in pain, lamenting, "Why is my life so miserable! It's clearly Daoji's fault, why are they arresting me? Why?"

At this moment, Guangliang felt as if he had a thousand words he couldn't express.

"Because your skills are low."

At this moment, Rouge couldn't help but sarcastically remark that she still had feelings for Li Xiuyuan and naturally wouldn't allow Guangliang to insult him.

Moreover, judging from today's performance, the two might be able to return to their former state.

"Woo!"

Guangliang wanted to argue with Yanzhi, but he was afraid that this female demon would kill him, so he could only swallow his anger. He looked mournful, as if his parents had died.

When Yan Zhi saw Guang Liang crying, she couldn't bear to listen anymore and coldly said, "Alright, what are you crying about, you big man?"

As she spoke, she walked straight over, took out a black pill from her bosom, and shot it directly into his mouth.

"Woo!"

Guangliang was taken aback, not expecting anything to fly towards him, but under Yanzhi's stern gaze, he swallowed it nonetheless.

"Gulu!"

Rouge smiled slightly and said, "What you just swallowed was my unique Heartbreak Pill. If there is no antidote, your soul will be scattered in ten days."

As she spoke, a chill emanated from her, sending a shiver down one's spine.

"what?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

As he spoke, Guangliang reached into his mouth and tried to get the pill out, but after a while it was no use.

Guangliang cried out, "Fairy, please give me the antidote quickly!"

As he spoke, he turned to ask Rouge for help.

Seeing Guangliang's expression, Rouge smiled slightly and said, "If you want the antidote, it's simple. Just have Li Xiuyuan marry me as promised, otherwise, hmph..."

After saying that, she went deep into the cave without looking back.

"You bastard Daoji, you have to save me!"

At this point, Guangliang could only pray that Li Xiuyuan wouldn't go back on his word.

Chapter 257 Narration in the Cave

"Hululu!"

A sound of someone falling asleep drifted over; after making a fuss for a while, Guangliang felt tired and fell asleep.

As for Rouge, she was in the cave practicing the Supreme Heavenly Demon True Scripture given to her by Li Xiuyuan. When she first obtained this technique, she was also greatly surprised.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiuyuan, the reincarnation of the Arhat who subdues dragons, was proficient in the cultivation methods of the demonic path. Afterwards, Li Xiuyuan made an excuse and gave her the Supreme Heavenly Demon True Scripture to practice.

Rouge did not refuse. She knew in her heart that the Heartless Demon Blade must be ruthless in order to be mastered. For more than twenty years, she had not been able to harden her heart and sever her emotional ties.

Therefore, it's not unreasonable for Rouge to switch to cultivating the Supreme Heavenly Demon Scripture since she couldn't master the Heartless Demon Blade.

After the old monk left, Li Xiuyuan asked Biqing to help prepare for the wedding, while he went to the Wuxin Cave. He had already contacted Yanzhi, so he knew the location of the cave.

Li Xiuyuan flew all the way and arrived outside the Heartless Cave in the blink of an eye. He strode forward and soon entered the cave.

The place was deserted and desolate, making it hard to imagine that anyone would live here. Then, a snore came from the air. Li Xiuyuan looked over and couldn't help but smile. He thought to himself, "Guangliang can fall asleep anywhere!"

Li Xiuyuan made no attempt to conceal himself and entered the cave directly. Rouge noticed him and sat down in a chair with a dressing table beside her.

She was dressed in a crimson embroidered silk robe and a pearl-white crepe skirt. Her oval face was fair and tender like jade, with a pair of dimples on her cheeks. She was lightly rouged, making her cheeks look like a newly opened magnolia flower, white with a hint of pink.

Her long, dark, arched eyebrows were as if painted on, and her eyes, bright and captivating, were clear and alluring, radiating a mesmerizing charm.

Upon seeing Yan Zhi's beauty, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but smile. This was his fiancée; just thinking about it made him happy.

After Li Xiuyuan walked over, he said with a light smile, "Yanzhi, I've come to see you!"

As he spoke, he sneaked up from behind and casually put his hand on Rouge's shoulder. Rouge was startled and almost fell, but Li Xiuyuan caught her quickly.

Yan Zhi felt a surge of sweetness in her heart upon hearing this. Looking at Li Xiuyuan's face reflected in the bronze mirror, she said in a muffled voice, "Hmph, I've been here for over twenty years, and this is the first time you've come to see me."

As she spoke, her tone was filled with resentment, as if she were a wronged woman who had been abandoned.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly and said, "I didn't know about your cave dwelling! If I had known earlier, I would have come here every night."

As he spoke, he began to tease the other person.

Rouge felt the heat on her face. Of course, she wanted Li Xiuyuan to stay by her side forever, preferably every day. When she heard Li Xiuyuan's words, she blushed slightly and spat out, "Pah! Who agreed to let you come here!"

As she spoke, her coquettish manner added to her charm.

Li Xiuyuan was a seasoned womanizer; he had an exquisite grasp of women's thoughts. At this moment, she might actually be hoping he would come over every day.

Li Xiuyuan's lips curled up, and he chuckled, "After today, I won't come here again."

As he spoke, he felt Rouge's entire body tremble slightly, clearly indicating some dissatisfaction.

Ok?

Rouge was startled and said coldly, "What did you say?"

As she spoke, she was furious. "Fine! If you don't come to my Heartless Cave from now on, does that mean you're severing all ties with me?"

snort!

You think I care?

Rouge thought to herself, but she seemed ready to make her move at any moment.

Seeing Yan Zhi's angry expression, Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly and said, "I said, I will not come to Wuxin Cave again in the future. Because in two days, you will marry me."

He paused and then said, "When the time comes, you'll follow the wife wherever she goes, according to the rules of our Li family. You'll have to live with me; that's considered marrying into the family."

As he spoke, he dispelled Rouge's dissatisfaction.

Rouge was overjoyed; she had been overthinking things. But she wouldn't admit it! She laughed and said, "Hmph, she's not even married yet!"

Li Xiuyuan pondered for a moment and then said, "It'll be soon, it'll be soon!"

As he spoke, he seemed very eager, which made Rouge even happier.

Rouge smiled and said, "Li Xiuyuan, when did you become so glib?"

As she spoke, she felt a little curious. Twenty years ago, Li Xiuyuan seemed like a bookworm, but now he had changed.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan's lips curled up, and he chuckled, "What, don't you like Rouge?"

As he spoke, he gently tugged at Rouge's earring.

Rouge felt itchy all over and whispered, "No."

As she spoke, her heart raced, and she reached out to stop Li Xiuyuan.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan laughed and said, "What do you mean, 'don't'?"

Having said that, he seemed even more unrestrained, taking a step forward to stand face to face with Rouge, looking into her eyes and smiling brightly.

"Don't touch me! I...I'm not even married into the family yet!"

As she said this, Rouge suddenly felt a surge of strength and quickly pushed Li Xiuyuan away, struggling to break free herself.

Seeing Yan Zhi's expression, Li Xiuyuan knew that she wanted to take things further on their wedding day. He smiled and said, "Alright, I respect your choice. After the wedding, hehe!"

As he spoke, he looked Rouge up and down.

Rouge blushed upon seeing this. She knew in her heart that Li Xiuyuan had changed drastically. If she hadn't been certain that this person was her childhood sweetheart, she would never have believed it.

But for some reason, Rouge actually liked this feeling; at least this Li Xiuyuan would never abandon her.

Rouge said with a stern face, "Hmph, all you do since you came to Wuxin Cave is bully people."

As she spoke, she seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

Chapter 258 Rescuing Senior Brother

Upon seeing this, Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Alright, I'll be going now."

After saying that, he stood up, seemingly preparing to leave.

Upon hearing this, Rouge said resentfully, "Couldn't you stay a little longer!"

As she spoke, she felt a deep sense of reluctance.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "If love between two people is meant to last, why should they be together every day and night?"
