This is my first time playing the female lead, what's wrong with the tea and snacks?

"Qingyi, I know you're still sad and upset about the hairpin, but some things are in the past now, and we should both move on..."

Before Ji Ruqing could finish speaking, Ji Lingyue's face darkened. She really was hopeless; a blockhead was a blockhead!

Just because someone's precious jade hairpin broke, does that mean everyone should forget about it?

I immediately gave him a push.

Ji Lingyue gritted her teeth and said, "Is this how you comfort someone? Your sister-in-law's hairpin just broke, and you're telling her to look forward right away?"

Ji Ruqing looked a little embarrassed, mainly because he had never been in a relationship before.

Afraid of saying the wrong thing again, he immediately handed the hairpin to Su Yu and went straight to the point with utmost sincerity.

"Qingyi, this is a jade hairpin I bought for you. Perhaps it is not as meaningful as your previous hairpins, and it is not that important."

"However, I still hope you can accept it; it represents my feelings."

His attitude was very sincere; he could even lower his head, which he had never bowed before.

He was completely captivated when Qingyi cried in his arms and uttered those words of waiting.

He found himself irrevocably in love with this aloof and pure woman.

He vowed to dedicate his life to protecting Qingyi.

For a moment, the atmosphere fell silent.

Ji Lingyue, who was standing to the side, was about to say something, but when she saw that Su Yu's gaze was fixed on Ji Ruqing and scrutinizing her, she obediently shut her mouth.

Ji Ruqing clearly felt Su Yu's gaze.

He was gripped by a tension he had never felt before.

He was so nervous that he started having fantasies, imagining that Qingyi would reject him, and what he would do then.

At this moment, he felt extremely tormented and uneasy.

Su Yu observed all of Ji Ruqing's actions. Very well, emotions were being pulled in different directions.

Actually, this jade hairpin wasn't left behind by Grandma Mu Qingyi at all; it was just an ordinary jade hairpin.

Su Yu did this simply because she wanted to grasp Ji Ruqing's red destiny.

Let's teach him a lesson while we're at it.

Not only did he neglect a Celestial Venerable, but the very people who captured him were his own royal family's men.

After a moment of silence, Su Yu wiped away her tears.

“One of a kind is one of a kind. This jade hairpin has been with me since I was a child, and nothing can replace it.”

"It is undoubtedly the most precious thing in my life."

"So, Qingyi, are you saying you're refusing?"

Ji Ruqing looked gloomy, a bitter expression on his face.

In the end, Qingyi still did not acknowledge his identity.

That's true, after all, they've only known each other for a short time, and even if they're engaged, they don't have an emotional foundation.

Ji Ruqing was dejected and completely deflated.

At this moment, Su Yu's words took another unexpected turn.

"Although the most precious jade hairpin is gone, I still have to tie my hair up even without a jade hairpin now."

"So... I'll take this jade hairpin of yours for now."

After saying that, Su Yu smiled and took the hairpin from Ji Ruqing's hand, then tied her long black hair into a bun.

The fairy, looking slightly haggard, had regained her usual aloofness.

"Qingyi, you...you mean you agree??"

This scene filled Ji Ruqing with joy. He grabbed Su Yu's shoulder, unable to contain his excitement.

Qingyi agreed! She accepted my jade hairpin!

He had been thinking about how to give the jade hairpin to Qingyi, but he never expected that her jade hairpin would be destroyed unexpectedly.

Sure enough, he and Qingyi were destined to be together!

This guy... Su Yu's shoulder was slightly sore from Ji Ruqing's forceful grip.

Having sustained injuries, he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"I'm sorry, I forgot you're still injured, Qingyi..."

Upon seeing this, Ji Ruqing immediately released her hands and bowed her head to admit her mistake to Su Yu.

Su Yu snorted coldly. "I didn't agree to anything you said. I just need a tool to tie my hair up."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Ji Ruqing nodded repeatedly. Although he agreed on the surface, Qingyi had already used his hairpin, so it was considered that he had agreed.

If she accepts it, then it proves that Qingyi is not completely denying herself.

If you cultivate feelings gradually, I believe that love will definitely develop over time.

"It's over, it seems Seventh Brother has completely fallen for him..."

Seeing this, Ji Lingyue beside him slowly shook her head.

Her seventh brother, Ji Ruqing, is the number one genius of the Extreme Imperial Palace and the owner of the Azure Cloud Sword Body Supreme Physique!

In the past, when she met Seventh Brother, she was always aloof and indifferent to everything, and everyone flattered him.

Now, however, he is so restrained and timid in front of a woman.

oh~~

However, she felt relieved when she thought that the other person was her sister-in-law.

After all, they're family.

No matter how outstanding a man is, he should listen to his wife's advice.

Moreover, with his sister-in-law's looks, it's no wonder that Seventh Brother wasn't tempted.

"Tell me what exactly happened in the Imperial City? Why did a Celestial Venerable Realm expert appear?"

After consolidating her relationship with Ji Ruqing, Su Yu curiously inquired about the events in the capital.

"It's nothing much. It was just a group of cultivators who called themselves the Three-Colored Holy Sect plotting against the dragon vein of the Heavenly Martial Empire. In the end, with the combined efforts of the powerhouses of my empire and the Extreme Imperial Palace, we defeated them."

"However, the fact that the Three-Colored Holy Sect can produce ten Heavenly Venerable Realm experts suggests that they are not ordinary people."

Ji Ruqing said with a solemn expression, "The Heavenly Venerable Realm is rare even in major sects like the Extreme Imperial Palace and the Moon Slaying Sect. They are all ancient relics left over from the past."

“The Three-Colored Holy Sect?” Su Yu raised an eyebrow. Hearing the name of the sect, he suddenly had a bad feeling.

"This Three-Colored Holy Religion worships an evil god."

"Evil god? What evil god?" Su Yu and Ji Lingyue exchanged a glance.

Ji Ruyu continued, "This evil god is a kind of evil beast from the demon race—the Three-Colored Crow Demon."

"It possesses a powerful ancient bloodline and is born with evil lightning that brings calamity to the world. Wherever it passes, life is devastated. At the same time, its demonic energy is also infinitely mysterious."

"This Three-Colored Holy Sect worships the Three-Colored Black Demon, believing that the evil thunder it brings is a baptism of the world's sins and that it is a divine punisher from heaven."

"When the Three-Colored Black Demon reaches the strength of a True God, its evil lightning becomes a world-destroying force."

"So their goal is also to destroy the world and purify the world."

"This Holy Church is incredibly powerful, and to this day, no one knows where their headquarters are."

"The Three-Colored Black Demon?"

Su Yu, who was standing to the side, was no longer calm.

He was filled with shock and confusion when Ji Ruqing uttered the words "Three-Colored Black Demon".

The three-colored black demon, isn't that just myself?

Holy crap! What's going on??

This Three-Colored Holy Sect actually worships the Three-Colored Black Demon?

But since ancient times, only one Black Demon can exist!

It is impossible for two Black Demon bloodlines to exist at the same time. Only after one Black Demon perishes will another Three-Colored Black Demon be born.

I am right here, and I have no memory of ever coming into contact with any Sancai Holy Sect.

Is this Sancai Sacred Sect illegally established without my consent?

He had always thought that the Black Demon was always coveted, but he never expected that there would be people who actually worshipped it.

"So that three-colored crow demon is the worst? It wants to destroy the world?"

Ji Lingyue did not know the Three-Colored Crow Demon, but she learned from Ji Ruqing that the origin of this Holy Sect was that Three-Colored Crow Demon.

Su Yu: ......Oh no, I've really become the villain!
