The Kind Zhang Jingyi

When Ye Wen heard this, it was like being struck by lightning! No! This isn't true. Jingyi would absolutely not want to get married. Even if she had to get married, she would never marry a good-for-nothing like Fang Cheng!

Seeing the Fang Family's coercion, that damned woman Mo Ruxue actually brought Jingyi out to shield herself from danger. Ye Wen couldn't stand it and was about to rush forward to take Zhang Jingyi away, intending to beat to death anyone who stood in his way!

At this moment, a pair of hands as black as charcoal grabbed Ye Wen.

"Don't be impulsive. Doing so will ruin the Grand Princess's plan. The Fang Family isn't preparing to get married at all; they have ulterior motives. I suspect they might have already defected."

Ye Wen looked to see that it was Old Ghost Wu who had grabbed him. Had his impulsiveness made his IQ lower than this old ghost's? Ye Wen thought carefully and realized it did seem to be the case.

"If the situation gets out of control, at worst, I'll storm the wedding and snatch her away. I will never allow Zhang Jingyi to marry such a thing."

Just then, the Fang Family encountered a problem. He had boasted that as long as the Princess was married, he would dispatch Xiantian Masters to be at their beck and call. Now, they actually had a Princess, albeit an adopted one, but still a Princess.

Fang Xu had no choice but to step forward and say.

"Alright, we'll go back and prepare. We'll come to pick up the bride in seven days."

"Wait, Uncle Fang Xu, why don't you leave some experts behind? We can go rescue my Father King first. In seven days, it will be too late for anything."

"No, if I don't get married, we won't dispatch any experts."

Fang Cheng's sharp, thin voice came again.

"Come to pick up the bride in three days, or we won't wait!"

Mo Ruxue said resolutely. The Fang Family members ultimately said nothing and turned to leave the City Lord's Mansion directly!

Mo Ruxue watched the Fang Family members leave, her heart sinking to the bottom. Three days, only three days. After three days, would they really come to marry her?

Would she marry then or not? Or would Xingyuan Demon Suppressing City fall after three days, and they would attack?

Mo Ruxue's mind was in turmoil, but she had to make a decision. She still had to let her Mother Queen and sister leave first, but at the moment, she couldn't find anyone suitable to take them.

"There's no other way. The situation has already reached this point; it's no longer within my control. I can only..."

After everyone left, Ye Wen immediately found Zhang Jingyi and excitedly took her hand.

"Jingyi, let's go! Come with me! I'll take you away, come with me!"

Zhang Jingyi's usually gentle demeanor was completely different now. She forcefully pulled her hand away from Ye Wen's. She noticed that her hand had already been squeezed red by the agitated Ye Wen.

It was only then that Ye Wen realized his incredibly strong physique could easily injure ordinary people he touched. This was just from a moment of excitement, and he had already injured her hand by holding it.

Ye Wen couldn't help but think.

What about in the future, if we were really together? Her mortal body versus my infinitely strengthened physique... what about at night...? Are we destined not to be together?

Zhang Jingyi looked up at Ye Wen, his face full of anxiety.

"Brother Ye Wen, ever since I first met you, I knew you had an incredibly brilliant past. Otherwise, your knowledge wouldn't be so profound.

You taught me to see the essence through phenomena, taught me so many things. Reading with you and listening to your stories has been the happiest thing for me all these years.

But Brother Ye Wen, sometimes I hate myself. I hate that I'm just a mortal. I hate that I have no talent for cultivation. I can only be like humble wild grass, looking up to you, watching you soar through the heavens and earth, watching you pluck the moon from the ninth heaven. While I, just a few decades later, will be buried in the yellow earth!

Grandpa told me that you are even more powerful than an ordinary Xiantian Fourth Rank. Because Grandpa is a Literary Scholar, although he hasn't reached the Xiantian rank, he can feel your strength!

By helping you find books and reading with you, I've also guessed that you carry a great responsibility. This responsibility makes you walk alone. You don't dare to reveal even a hint of it. I also know that I don't have the ability to bear it with you, nor am I worthy to bear this responsibility with you!"

"No, Jingyi, don't say that. I do carry heavy burdens. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you wouldn't be able to accept it, and also afraid that others would implicate you because of me. I..."

Ye Wen was interrupted before he could finish. This was the first time Zhang Jingyi had interrupted Ye Wen in all these days.

"I know, you don't need to tell me, Brother Ye Wen! We are truly people from two different worlds. I want to accompany you, to wander the world with you.

But with an ordinary person like me, you won't be able to complete the mission you carry. You'll even watch me grow old while your appearance remains unchanged. How painful would that be for you? I don't want you to watch me grow old, nor do I want you to watch me die!"

Ye Wen was in pain now. Zhang Jingyi was simply too smart and too considerate.

It turned out she had seen through some of his disguises long ago and had never exposed them. She had never asked about his past. Yet, it was this kind of woman, a woman who always thought of him, that this novice Ye Wen liked the most.
