The complexions of the Bai Yihang and the various elders had long turned pale. After knowing the life and death of everyone involved, they naturally could not remain calm.
The person who could save Honghuang Sect was only Ye Ling, but in their eyes, it was just a marriage, and to Ye Ling, it was not a loss at all.
The blood demon's face turned ugly, he turned and looked at Ye Ling, and said: ”Grandson, you better not go down the wrong path! You are the hope of our family. How can you be implicated by these people? They are your stumbling blocks, why not let me cut them off for you, with my strength, we can still return to Nine Dragons Sky Domain! ”
When the Blood Demon said this, it instantly attracted countless gazes. Amongst them, the Ninth Uncle was the most intense, and the rest were the people of the Honghuang Sect.
The fact that the Blood Demon actually wanted to exterminate the Honghuang Sect angered the masses. However, they had never thought of it as them implicating Ye Ling, causing him to be restricted multiple times and becoming Ye Ling's weak spot.
Ye Ling raised his head and stared at the Blood Demon. He was well aware of the Blood Demon's good intentions, but he wasn't a heartless, vile person.
Looking at the Bai Yihang and those familiar faces, eyes that were filled with pleading and desire, made him unable to make a choice. Facing the Ninth Uncle's pressure, he no longer had the courage to refuse.
”Ye Ling, you must think this through!” Seeing that Ye Ling did not give him an answer after a long time, Ninth Uncle frowned and asked.
”I need some time.”
”This is a major event in my life, I can't be this rash, right?”
”Alright!”
”We'll wait here for you. Do you need three days, three months, or even three years to think about it?”
Ninth Uncle nodded his head slightly. He put away his indifferent expression and looked at Ye Ling, asking for the exact time.
”About three months!”
was speechless. Ninth Uncle had obviously been testing him on purpose, and it had only been three days. If he said three years, Ninth Uncle would have definitely changed his mind.
The blood demon's face became ugly, after being forced to such a state, as Ye Ling's elder, he was naturally unable to remain calm, if it was not for the fact that he had not recovered his cultivation, he would have went back to the forbidden region and vented his anger on Ye Ling.
Bai Yihang and the others were extremely tense. Although they had relaxed a little, it was still floating in the air. As long as Ye Ling did not agree, they had always been on tenterhooks.
As night fell, Ye Ling went back to the West Spiritual Academy and closed his door.
As for the people from the restricted region, they all stayed in the vicinity of West Spiritual Academy, as if they were always on guard against Ye Ling, and were deeply afraid that Ye Ling would take the chance to escape.
It was a peaceful night, yet there was a light breeze blowing. In the empty courtyard, Leng Xiang's figure quietly appeared, her expression was complicated, the tears in the corners of her eyes had yet to disappear.
She had long heard of the matter of the restricted region proposing marriage. When she heard that the Lord of the Forbidden Zone was going to threaten Ye Ling again, she wanted to go find the restricted region to argue with.
”Ye Ling, you and my sister are engaged.”
”Originally, I thought that after you died, my sister's heart would break and tears would wash over her face every day. Can you do what's right for her?”
Leng Xiang, who was standing outside the courtyard, looked at the brightly lit window in the courtyard.
The Blood Demon in the courtyard heard everything Leng Xiang said and her expression froze. After knowing about Ye Ling's past, although she had some words, he finally understood why Ye Ling had suddenly appeared in Octoterra Divine Region.
”So that's how it is!”
”My grandson's life is so miserable. I hate those who belong to the side branch of the family and want my big brother to die!”
The anger in the Blood Demon was overflowing, the direct line of descent was originally very small, and Ye Ling was undoubtedly the person with the most qualifications to inherit the family name.
The Blood Demon was infuriated. It was no wonder that Ye Ling didn't want to talk about his past and even more so, didn't want to acknowledge this second master of his.
”Pitiful! This Leng Family lass is actually not bad too! ”
”It's a pity that she doesn't have that kind of fate. My mother, the Good grandson, might really be obsessed with that Leng Ruyan forever.”
Blood Demon was also a person who had been through many things. Who wouldn't be young and arrogant, hence he was able to understand the feelings Ye Ling had right now.
Creak!
It was a quiet night, and a gentle breeze blew. Leng Xiang, who was standing outside the courtyard, was still standing there quietly, perhaps this was the simplest part of her life.
Ye Ling's closed door slowly opened, and a slim figure walked out. Ye Ling's face was filled with melancholy, he had spent a few hours to help Emperor Huang, and now, it was finally over.
Emperor Huang's breathing gradually calmed down, and he should think about it for himself. Everything that Leng Xiang said outside the courtyard, was transmitted into his ears.
”Don't you want to comfort her?”
Ye Ling stood in the courtyard and looked up at the sky. The Blood Demon that was sitting down suddenly asked Ye Ling a question.
Ye Ling retracted his gaze and looked at Leng Xiang who was standing outside the courtyard. He felt guilty, and blamed herself in her heart, why would she be loved by so many people?
