The villain, Xiao Nanliang, caused the female lead excruciating pain.

"Ye Feng, if you truly love me, you should grant me and my master's wish. By doing this, you'll gain nothing but hatred from me!"

Hearing Bai Ling's words and seeing the murderous look in her eyes...

Ye Feng felt a sharp pang in his heart.

But he comforted himself, thinking that Bai Ling said those words because she was being controlled, and that it wasn't her true thought.

Once Du Yun dies, she will revert to being the Ling'er who deeply loves her and is willing to endure humiliation for her sake.

"You really would die for her? I find it hard to believe. Do you want to prove it to me?"

As Ye Feng spoke, he made a hand seal.

"don't want……"

The rope tightened suddenly, making it difficult for Ye Yue to speak. She managed to squeeze out those two words with all her might.

"Stop!!!" Su Qi shouted, his bloodshot eyes flashing with determination: "You want my life? Fine, I'll give it to you!"

"do not want!"

Bai Ling suddenly hugged Su Qi, using all her strength to try to pull him away.

But with her Golden Core cultivation level, there was nothing she could do.

"Baby!" Su Qi lowered his head and cupped her face in his hands.

"Master, please don't abandon Ling'er!"

Bai Ling was already crying her eyes out.

"Don't you like dressing Ling'er up as a fox? Ling'er will agree to anything you want, just please don't..."

Before she could finish speaking, her mouth was covered.

Seeing the two kissing, Ye Feng and Ye Yue both widened their eyes.

Before the two could react, they saw Su Qi strike Bai Ling on the back of the neck with a chop.

Bai Ling's body went limp.

Su Qi hugged the person and gently placed them aside.

Su Qi gently wiped away Bai Ling's tears before looking at Ye Feng, whose eyes were bloodshot.

"I may die, but you must swear that after I die, you will release Ye Yue and leave without harming a single hair on her head!"

"Alright!" Ye Feng nodded after a long pause. In any case, his current goal was simply to win back Bai Ling.

As for Ye Yue, there will be plenty of time to deal with her later.

"No..." Ye Yue's eyes glistened with tears as she forced out a single word, suppressing her pain.

But Su Qi didn't look at her; his eyes were fixed on Ye Feng.

Only after Ye Feng finished making his vow did Su Qi reluctantly look at Ye Yue.

"Sister Ye Yue, now that I think about it, there are still so many things I didn't get to tell you, but... none of that matters anymore. From now on... forget about me!"

Under the cold moonlight, he was surrounded by a spiritual light as he wept with reluctance, like a flower about to wither, exquisitely beautiful yet heartbreaking.

"don't want……"

Ye Yue struggled fiercely, her face full of pain.

She realized that this was a sign that the person was about to commit suicide, leaving no body behind.

She used all her strength to pull on the spiritual energy threads, and the tiny threads scratched her skin.

But all of this was in vain in the face of a trapping formation capable of holding back even a cultivator at the Integration Realm.

Ye Yue could only watch helplessly as Su Qi slowly raised his hands, his spiritual energy began to surge wildly, and ceramic-like cracks began to appear on his body.

Light and spiritual energy molecules spilled out from the cracks, dazzling yet tinged with sorrow.

"puff--"

A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, staining his white clothes red.

Finally, Su Qi looked at Ye Yue, a smirk playing on his lips and a tilt of his head.

His figure was swallowed by a dazzling white light.

"don't want!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream echoed across the wilderness. Bai Ling, who had woken up at some point, rushed towards the blinding ball of light without hesitation.

But... she missed her target.

In a burst of dazzling light, the ball of light exploded and transformed into countless stars, scattering between heaven and earth like the Milky Way falling from the sky.

Su Qi is gone, vanished without a trace, leaving only that heartbreaking smile, forever etched in Ye Yue's heart.

Bai Ling collapsed to her knees, sobbing uncontrollably.

Ye Yue stared blankly, momentarily forgetting all her pain.

Boom...

Suddenly, thunder roared in the sky, and calamity clouds were gathering.

"Boy, the gathering of thunderclouds indicates that Heaven has confirmed that Du Yun is dead. Quickly release the witch from her bonds, or the oath will be fulfilled."

Upon hearing Elder Mu's reminder, Ye Feng quickly released the trapping formation.

The moment Ye Yue regained her freedom, the gathering tribulation clouds dissipated.

Ye Yue staggered two steps, then blankly stretched out her bloodied hand to catch the falling light from the sky.

Ye Feng ignored her and instead looked at Bai Ling, who was kneeling on the ground.

"Ling'er, are you okay?"

I went over to help him up.

But the moment he got close, Bai Ling suddenly sprang up, drew her sword and stabbed him.

puff...

As expected, the longsword pierced Ye Feng's heart.

Originally, with Bai Ling's cultivation level, she wouldn't have been able to harm Ye Feng.

But this sword has the power of someone else to enhance it.

This "other person" is naturally Su Qi.

Bai Ling knew from the very beginning that this was all an act.

Blood splattered as Bai Ling drew her sword, and without hesitation, she swung it again towards Ye Feng's head.

Even if Ye Feng was slow to react, he reacted quickly and struck out with a palm, knocking Bai Ling back.

He staggered back two steps, looking at Bai Ling with disbelief in his eyes.

"Ling'er, why?"

Is the control still in effect?

Within his consciousness, Ye Feng frantically questioned Elder Mu about what was going on.

But even the old man couldn't give an answer.

Bai Ling, who was lying on the ground, raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.

"Heh, Ye Feng, do you really think I would accept you as my husband? I was just playing you! When we recognized each other at the academy, the sword I used to stab you wasn't a misunderstanding. It was only because I knew you were Ye Feng that I wanted to kill you!"

Looking at Bai Ling's somewhat manic and hateful eyes, Ye Feng was bewildered. This didn't seem like she was being controlled at all.

"why?"

"You ask me why? My entire Bai family died because of you. You ask me why? You caused trouble and ran away, leaving the Bai family to bear the consequences. You still have the nerve to ask me why?"

Looking at Bai Ling's expression, Ye Feng felt as if his heart had been stabbed with a sword.

Oh, he really did get stabbed in the heart.

That's fine.

"Ling'er, I..."

Ye Feng wanted to explain, but he found that he couldn't explain it at all.

After all, the Bai family was indeed wiped out because of him.

Just then, the old man in his mind suddenly exclaimed.

"Kid, get out of the way!"

In fact, Ye Feng had already sensed the danger without Ye Feng's reminder.

But he had no time to dodge; a whip-like leg covered in black armor had already lashed out.

He barely had time to raise his hands to block.

bang...

The immense force acted on his arms, and Ye Feng felt his hands go numb in an instant.

He flew backward uncontrollably, crashing into several tombstones and making a huge noise before finally coming to a stop.

"I want... you to die!"

Ye Yue has completely changed. Her body is covered with alluring black patterns, and demonic energy is surging.

"This is a demonic rune? Is she out of her mind? With only a Void Refinement cultivation level, she actually dares to activate the seventh transformation of the Nine Transformations of Illusionary Demon!"

An old man in his mind exclaimed in surprise.

At the same time, the tribulation clouds in the sky gathered again.

The old man realized it instantly.

"Boy, run! With the Heavenly Oath in place, you cannot harm her now."

Besides... you probably can't beat her now if she fights desperately.

"But……"

Ye Feng looked at Bai Ling with resentment.

When the old man saw this, he was almost furious.

They've clearly said they were just teasing you, yet you still can't forget them!

Even the most shameless simp can't lick your boots!
