Warm my heart

Deep in the Mo River, Sangjiu was wearing gorgeous wedding clothes with joy, waiting for Mingye.

His face was filled with a happy smile and his heart was full of longing for the future.

Two flying birds and six immortals were pulling a gorgeously decorated wedding carriage, setting off from the Mo River and slowly flying towards the Shangqing Divine Realm.

The wedding car drew a beautiful arc in the sky, like a rainbow, connecting the two worlds.

In this festive atmosphere, the expressions of the two people formed a sharp contrast.

Sangjiu was smiling and very happy, her eyes sparkling with anticipation for the future and admiration for Mingye.

Ming Ye had a gloomy face and remained silent. His heart was full of contradictions and helplessness.

His eyes revealed his resistance to the upcoming wedding and his deep longing for Tianhuan.

Just as the wedding car was slowly flying towards the sky, Sang You suddenly shouted to the wedding car in the sky, telling about Sang Jiu's dedication and sacrifice for Ming Ye, and asked Ming Ye to treat his sister well, otherwise he would go to heaven to seek justice.

These words left Mingye speechless.

He thought to himself that this marriage was not something he actively pursued, but was forced upon him by your Sang family out of wishful thinking.

Now Sang You actually came to threaten him, which made him sneer.

After hearing what her brother said, Sang Jiu tried to catch a hint of emotional change on Ming Ye's face, but Ming Ye still maintained that arrogant and indifferent expression.

This made Sang Jiu a little disappointed, but she quickly comforted herself, thinking that the God of War Mingye was a person with this kind of personality.

Sangjiu seemed to have forgotten how gentle and considerate Mingye was towards Tianhuan, which was in stark contrast to his current attitude.

The wedding carriage continued to move forward and passed Tianzhu. Along the way, fairies scattered colorful petals in the air, like a gorgeous flower rain, adding a bit of romance and festive atmosphere to the wedding.

As a god of war, he would not bother a little girl. He could just take her back and ignore her.

Still he agreed to Sang You with a cold face.

Although he was reluctant in many ways, Mingye understood that in front of outsiders, he had to give Sangjiu the respect and face he deserved.

This is his duty as the God of War and also a respect for Sangjiu.

At the wedding, the master of ceremonies read out the blessing loudly: "The God of War is getting married, and the heaven and earth are here to ride together."

As the blessing ended, Mingye flapped his wings and flew towards the Shangqing Divine Realm, followed closely by Sangjiu.

With the blessings of the immortals, the two completed the wedding ceremony.

After the wedding, Sangjiu sat alone in the bridal chamber, waiting for Mingye's arrival.

Ming Ye stood in the hall, recalling what the Clam King said that day, and knew in his heart that he owed Sang Jiu a favor.

He secretly decided in his heart that after repaying this favor, they could each live in peace and no longer owe each other anything.

By then, he will be able to coax Tian Huan wholeheartedly, otherwise, given her personality, she will be angry with him for who knows how long.

Mingye was immersed in his own thoughts, and before he knew it, the whole night had passed.

And Sangjiu waited alone in the bridal chamber all night.

After Sang Jiu woke up, he excitedly wandered around the Shangqing Divine Realm.

Everything here was new to her, many of which she had never seen before.

The maid who was sprinkling water said contemptuously, "This little clam spirit that crawled out of the river seems to have never seen the world."

The second maid who was sprinkling water echoed, "How can you expect someone who came out of this little ditch to have any vision? I'm afraid that in his entire life, this is the first time he's seen what our Divine Realm is like."

The two men laughed at Sangjiu, but Sangjiu was completely unaware. She saw the fruits on the tree, picked one out of curiosity and tasted it. It was so sour that she frowned.

Ming Ye happened to pass by and saw this scene.

When the two maids saw Ming Ye, they quickly bowed and said, "Lord God."

Mingye looked at Sangjiu and said calmly, "Why didn't you two remind her?"

The maid replied, "Your Majesty, I saw that the Madam was in the mood for fun just now, and I was afraid of disturbing her interest, so I forgot to remind her."

Ming Ye didn't say anything else. When Sang Jiu saw Ming Ye, he hurried to his side.

Sang Jiu asked anxiously, "I was waiting for you last night, but you didn't show up.

I accidentally fell asleep.

Did you come back later?

Did I oversleep?"

Ming Ye replied calmly, “I told you clearly at the beginning that the girl and I had never met and were not destined to be together. Although we became husband and wife, it was not out of our will.

Besides, I already have someone I like, and since we don't have any feelings for each other, it's better for us to make three rules for our future actions."

He continued, "First, you can come and go as you please in Yuqing Palace, but I will not set foot in your bedroom. From now on, you and I will each do our own things and not disturb each other.

Second, although you are my wife in name, you cannot use this as an excuse to threaten or bully others.

Thirdly, if you find someone you like in the future, you can choose another partner. I will write a letter to the King of Clams to divorce you."

After saying that, Mingye turned and left, leaving Sangjiu looking at his departing back from afar.

Hongzhu and Lu'e were discussing Sangjiu in private, when they didn't expect Sangjiu himself to suddenly appear behind them.

Sister Hongzhu, you were right. She really does look quite pitiful now."

"What's so pitiful about them? The Clam Clan is trying to repay a favor by extorting our Lord. They'll naturally reap what they sow. You really shouldn't even be nice to them."

"Come to think of it, I still don't know the name of that little clam spirit."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them: "My name is Sangjiu."

The two were startled and saluted quickly: "Sang, Madam Sang."

Sang Jiu smiled and said gently, "What are your names?"

Lu'e answered nervously, "My name is Lu'e, and she is Hongzhu."

Sang Jiu was not angry at their talk, but smiled and said, "Sister Lu'e, Sister Hongzhu, I actually have something I want to ask you.

Do you know what the Midnight War God likes? What should I do if I want to get closer to him?

She secretly made up her mind to win Mingye's favor.

Lu'e and Hongzhu looked at each other, somewhat surprised by Sangjiu's attitude. They originally thought that Sangjiu would be angry because of their comments, but they didn't expect Sangjiu to be so kind.

Lu'e continued, "The Lord God doesn't seem to have any particular preferences, nor does he enjoy being close to others. He is only close to Saint Tian Huan.

On weekdays, they are either training or fighting, which is very tiring, so Saint Tian Huan often uses spiritual herbs to make soup and medicine to nourish the body of the God Sovereign, and also..."

Hongzhu suddenly patted her, and Lu'e realized that what she said was absolutely right, and stopped quickly.

Hongzhu bowed and said, "Madam, we are just small fairy maids. How can we know how to get close to the God?"

Sang Jiu listened attentively, thinking, "I understand now. So he likes training soldiers and fighting.

Now that I’m married, I can’t be lazy and sleep in anymore.

I will practice weapons diligently starting tomorrow. If I am allowed to recruit him as an exception, won’t I be able to be close to him every day?

Maybe I can be of help during the war."
