The gigolo kept by the matriarch turned out to be the heir to a wealthy family.

Chapter 297 The Wedding Day

The person on the palace roof was dressed in flowing red robes. The long, bright red dress looked particularly alluring and seductive on her. She loved red and was the only one who could pull off such a flamboyant color so well.

With a flick of her sleeve and hands behind her back, she slowly turned around, revealing her exquisite and beautiful face. She glanced around and smiled.

The sound of weapons falling from their hands filled the air, followed by the thuds of knees hitting the ground.

"Welcome back to the palace, Demon Lord!"

"Welcome back to the palace, Demon Lord!"

"Welcome back to the palace, Demon Lord!"

A deafening sound resounded throughout the entire Demon Realm. Yun Yao looked at her people, her eyes slightly lowered.

"No gift."

Su Yuchen once asked her if it was worth dying for these people, and Yun Yao said she didn't know, she only wanted to have a clear conscience.

But now, she can tell Su Yuchen with absolute certainty.

They deserve it, they really deserve it!

Even though Yun Yao said no need for formalities, they still didn't get up. From the elderly in their seventies and eighties to the toddlers who were just learning to speak, everyone was sobbing uncontrollably.

They believe that the Demon Lord's accident was to protect them, and that they were the ones who harmed the Demon Lord.

Helpless, Yun Yao landed gracefully and dismissed their formalities.

"Demon Lord Sister, we all miss you so much!"

"My Lord Demon Lord, I've collected several baskets of eggs for you," a woman said.

Yun Yao remembered that their family only had one chicken and a few baskets of chickens.

Yes, she has been gone for a long time.

Yun Yao took in all their thoughts and greetings, and her heart was warmed.

Meanwhile, deep inside the dark palace, a drunkard heard the noise outside, kicked aside the surrounding bottles, and stumbled out.

Seeing the figure not far away surrounded by people offering words of comfort and concern, his eyes reddened.

"Your Excellency." This one word contained all his longing and concern over the past four years.

Upon hearing the sound, Yun Yao slowly turned around.

A strong, pungent smell of alcohol hit her face, and before Yun Yao could react, he pulled her into a tight embrace.

Back when he faced death on the battlefield, Qiao Yunan didn't shed a single tear, but now, he cried like a child, blaming himself for not protecting her.

In Yun Yao's eyes, he was a very good and well-behaved younger brother. She did not refuse the hug and raised her hand to gently pat his back.

"I'm back now, aren't I? I won't be leaving again."

Yun Yao had no idea that she would soon break her promise.

The Demon Lord returned and proclaimed his return to the Six Realms. The mere mention of Yun Zhouwan shattered all their hopes, and they deeply regretted not having conquered the Demon Realm in one fell swoop all those years ago.

Those who had fought against the Demon Realm were all in danger. They knew all too well Yun Zhouwan's vengeful nature. Among the six realms, she, the Demon Lord, was both unruly and protective of her own.

But soon, another person took that title.

The cloud boat returned late, and the divine realm should have been the most anxious, but so far there has been no movement from the divine realm.

This time they were wrong. The divine realm wasn't inactive; rather, the commotion was so great that they had no time to concern themselves with other people's affairs.

The gods gazed at the two god-emperors on the throne hall, who looked exactly alike and exuded the same aura, and fell into deep thought.

What's going on here? Which one is the real God Emperor?

However, the two people at the top of the table showed no intention of explaining anything to them. Their bodies were filled with murderous aura, and their eyes were filled with unyielding anger.

"Why are you back? Are you afraid that I will completely replace you?" His voice was particularly sinister.

Su Yuchen was too lazy to waste words with him, so he unleashed his ancient divine sword and attacked him directly.

This battle raged for several days and nights. The gods in the hall didn't dare to blink, for fear that if they lost focus, they wouldn't be able to tell who was who.

He was the embodiment of Su Yuchen's greatest desire, so one can imagine how powerful he was. The two were evenly matched, and it was difficult to determine a winner for the time being.

After hosting a three-day banquet in the Demon Realm and finally calming the anxious hearts of these people, Yun Yao took advantage of the night and carried her most handy greatsword to the Nine Heavens.

What's the meaning of her waiting at home while her husband gets into a fight?

Sure enough, upon arriving in the realm of gods, they witnessed a fierce battle raging in the sky.

"Tsk, shameless thing, I'm here to settle accounts with you." Yun Yao swung her cleaver at the inner demon.

And so, the war, which was supposed to last for several months, ended prematurely because of Yun Yao's involvement.

When its soul dissipated, its eyes were filled with resentment. Because of the distance, Yun Yao did not hear what its last words were, but they were certainly not good.

"Su Yuchen, what's wrong? You can't even beat such a bastard?"

"I can defeat her." He was merely restraining the power of the divine realm, allowing her to return to the demon realm peacefully.

Although the inner demon is very powerful, it is merely a manifestation of a thought; the true form is the inner demon!

Yun Yao looked down at the gradually dissipating soul, her eyes filled with contempt.

"If I weren't in a good mood today, I would have kept your soul alive to torture you properly!" Yun Yao spat lightly.

"Don't get your hands dirty," Su Yuchen said in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft.

The gods: "..." God Emperor, shouldn't you be keeping your distance from us?

After everything was settled, he took her to sit on the supreme dragon throne.

"Gods, heed my command," he said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in their seats knelt down, their expressions respectful.

"I hereby appoint Yun Yao as the Goddess of the Night, in charge of the light and darkness of the Three Realms, her rank second only to this Emperor. Furthermore, her wedding will take place in one month." He spoke very little, even when announcing their wedding.

Furthermore, he never discussed this matter with her.

"Su Yuchen!"

He gently tapped her with his well-defined fingers, his eyes filled with determination.

It was as if he was saying, "Don't be afraid, I've got you covered."

Yun Yao ultimately said nothing, letting him give her this one and only favoritism.

The news of the marriage alliance between the realms of gods and demons spread like wildfire, and everyone found it hard to believe, since the saying that gods and demons cannot coexist was deeply ingrained in their minds.

But despite everyone's opinion that it was absurd and ridiculous, their wedding took place as scheduled.

The scale of this grand wedding amazed the entire six realms.

But... the bride has disappeared.

Su Yuchen searched every place he could think of, but still couldn't find Yun Yao. If their life-and-death curse hadn't been activated yet, he would have turned the entire Six Realms upside down.

The red silk stretched from the heavens to the gates of the demon realm, but there was not a single person on it, making it appear particularly desolate and ironic.

Yun Yao disappeared, plunging both the realms of gods and demons into chaos.

It's not that she doesn't want to get married, it's that she can't get married.

Because it was her wedding day, Yun Yao was less vigilant. Before dawn, a celestial messenger brought Yun Yao a cup of wine, saying that the God Emperor had instructed him to send it, and that if she did not drink this longevity wine, her marriage would not last long.

She had finally fallen in love once in all these years, and naturally wanted it to last. In the face of love, she compromised once again, especially since she had seen that the wine was not poisonous.

She tilted her head back and drank it down, but unexpectedly, in an instant, most of her magical power was sealed.

Yun Yao was furious and chased after him.

She needed to find out who had sent the wine!

But what awaited her was a vast procession of gods, numbering over a hundred.

Upon seeing this, Yun Yao smiled.

Her bright red wedding dress was particularly eye-catching in the night.

"You've come to kill me?" Yun Yao asked.

"Witch! You bewitched the God Emperor and even dared to dream of marrying into the God Realm?"

Seduction? Who seduced whom?

"Just you?"

With a bunch of lowly people like them, Yun Yao wouldn't even consider a hundred, let alone a thousand.
