After binding the investment system, I began to cultivate the empress

The night gradually deepened. The damp wind after the rain was mixed with the fragrance of the earth. The moonlight after the clouds and rain illuminated the haziness of the empty mountains after the rain.

Li Mo, his left and right bodyguards, and two servants returned to Qiu Shui Pavilion. The servants...oh no, Elder Qian and Elder Xue did not stay long after they arrived, and went back to report to Sect Master Shangguan.

"Elders, take care."

Li Mo waved his hand, turned around and closed the door, then looked at his left and right bodyguards.

"The two guardians are very professional in being members of the Demon Sect."

"Well, Xiao Mo, your immortal self is also playing himself. If you were born a few thousand years earlier, I would have given you my position as the leader."

Qin Yuzhi, the former leader of the Demon Summoning Sect, now looked at the moon with a guilty look on her face.

"What was that plan of yours just now? Which side are you on?"

"Of course it's on your side. It was just a sudden inspiration."

Qin Yuzhi waved her hands repeatedly.

Li Mo nodded and looked at Shang Qinqing again: "But I heard from the Shang clan leader that you guys have been wanting to do this for a long time."

"Yes, yes, it's all her fault. She's the one who keeps nagging about it."

Qin Yuzhi immediately sold out her teammates.

"......"

Shang Qinqing's eyes widened, and after a moment of silence, he rolled his eyes:

"That's right, I just want to see rivers of blood and deaths, but I still have a clear distinction between the important and the urgent. What I did just now was to paralyze the people of the Demon Summoning Cult. Besides, you drank the drug after I gave it to you."

"That's true. I can choose not to drink... huh?"

Li Mo stopped talking midway, suspecting that he had heard an extra word.

Is it right to drink the medicine even though you know it’s been drugged?

"To be honest, knocking you two almost made me go back to the seventh realm."

Shang Qinqing spread his hands and said, "If you two really get married, maybe I can immediately control the Xuanxuan Sect. Then you won't have to deal with the Summoning Demon Sect yourself, and everyone will be happy."

"Hey, boss, you're still talking about us. Are you a gentleman yourself?"

"Of course, everyone in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths knows the value of my number one ranking on the Jade Tree and Orchid List."

Student Xiao Li had a serious expression on his face as he looked up at the starry sky at a 45-degree angle.

It seems that I have completely forgotten how much water there is in this ranking because of a certain CP fan.

"What happened to Xiao Bing'er secretly washing clothes this morning? She loves cleanliness so much that she wouldn't get her clothes dirty that often."

"Then... Elder Xu, a Dharma Body Realm master, can still spill his tea. So when Bingtuozi and I were drinking tea... what's the problem if we didn't hold it firmly?"

Student Li glanced upstairs out of the corner of his eye.

Fortunately, Bingtuozi wasn’t watching.

Shang Qinqing: "Tsk tsk tsk... Ouch... You're still drinking tea and you can't hold it steady."

Qin Yuzhi: "Kukuku...I'm going to sleep."

They usually don't laugh unless they can't help it.

The Black Earth Immortal had been calm and composed when facing the two deputy leaders of the Demon Summoning Sect just now, but now he hesitated when asked about his clothes.

Looking at the backs of the two people, Li Mo opened his mouth. Perhaps it was because of the law of soft and hard complementarity. He tossed and turned too much at night, and now he couldn't keep his mouth hard.

I can't sleep tonight.

Li Mo went to the kitchen to make a midnight snack, temporarily filling his inner world which was often in an empty state, and completed his daily exercises. Before he knew it, it was already the next morning.

"Why is it so noisy outside?"

The morning light from three big suns was so bright that it was impossible to open one's eyes. Li Mo subconsciously blocked the sunlight.

But when he put his hand down, he was stunned by the situation in the yard.

Qin Yuzhi was directing a group of Qingyuan Sect disciples, who were busy in the courtyard, hanging up lights and decorations, and arranging tables and chairs.

Senior Brother Ouyang also came. After he finished writing on a wooden board, he placed it at the door and nodded with satisfaction.

Li Mo didn't see the name clearly, but he could see clearly the words "Happiness and Marriage for a Hundred Years" and "Happy Marriage" at the end.

The scene was somewhat similar to what I had seen in my dreams, and it didn't feel real.

"Who's getting married?"

Li Mo couldn't help asking, and only after asking did he react, his expression a little dazed.

In the entire Qingyuan Sect, is there anyone else with the surname Li and Ying who can get together?

In the blink of an eye, he seemed to be changing his identity, so fast that he himself couldn't react.

and many more.

Is this the standard for an engagement banquet?

Li Mo coughed lightly and went over to help, thinking that his daughter Bingtuozi might not know much about this matter, after all, she had never even seen a pig run.

But he forgot that Ying Bing didn't understand, but there was a god of the Shang Dynasty in Qiu Shui Pavilion who was in charge of marriage.

Attic room.

Ying Bing was woken up early in the morning. She was sitting at the head of the bed with her legs hugged, looking a little dazed, as if she was still half asleep and half awake.

"Xiao Bing'er, you're awake. Help me write something."

Shang Qinqing handed over several stacks of red paper.

"Write what?"

Ying Bing's long legs were placed sideways on the couch. He nodded when he heard this and took out a small table.

"Wedding invitation."

"?"

Shang Qinqing sat opposite, decorating the attic while talking non-stop.

"After so many years, it's finally my turn to host the engagement banquet!"

"Do you still care about engagements?"

"Getting engaged is just one word away. It's reasonable for me to be more lenient."

Shang Qinqing's hair is not very straight, but it is very strong.

Ying Bing was stunned for a moment, but because the Shang clan leader was too authoritative, she really didn't understand what the differences and similarities between the two were.

"What do you need to do to get engaged?"

"First, the bride's family must prepare the dowry. The bride, accompanied by her family, will wait at home for the groom to pick her up. Then, she will ride in the bridal sedan chair and step over the fire basin..."

“…”

Yingbing listened to her for a long while, his eyes slightly lowered, and the fingertips holding the pen curled slightly.

But she no longer has a family.

She had long been accustomed to being alone.

Even before she came to Qingyuan Sect, people in Qinghe County often discussed her life experience in private and the reason why the Ying family disappeared overnight. Even the grooms and maids in the Li Mansion often looked at her with pity.

Even if she felt that kind of gaze, she would pretend to ignore it.

I don’t know if it’s because she can’t accept what happened, or she doesn’t want others to see her vulnerability, or maybe it’s both. This is her way of protecting herself when she’s alone.

As time went by, no one would talk to her when she looked like she was quenched by the cold moon, let alone cause trouble for her.

Except for a certain little devil from Qinghe County who is still a childish ghost...

In short, gradually even she herself really didn't care about her own background.

But now no one will buy her a dowry, no one will dress her up, take her hand and hand her over to the childish ghost...

"Chief Shang, please be my in-law."

Ying Bing suddenly raised his head and said.

"I would like to, but unfortunately I can't grab the position. I'd better be the emcee."

"Can't win?"

As he was speaking, footsteps were heard at the attic door again.

Ying Bing looked at her blankly, and saw Gu Xueqin and Li Dalong coming in with bags. They smiled gently when they saw her.

Shang Qinqing curled her lips and said, "Hey, your family is here."
