Naturally, no one in Spirit Hall dared disobey the order Wu Qingkong had issued.
After issuing that order, Wu Qingkong had nothing else to say. He had never been obsessed with power; he only wanted a peaceful, quiet life, without getting entangled in too many worldly affairs.
"You may all leave. I need to go back and keep my wife company."
With that, Wu Qingkong put away the scepter, turned, and headed back to his room.
As Wu Qingkong left the vast Pope Hall, the crowd dispersed all at once.
On his way back, Wu Qingkong was walking down the corridor when a familiar figure approached him.
Seeing this girl again, Wu Qingkong's expression shifted slightly.
He could not help recalling the night he had absorbed the Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent Inner Core.
He had not seen Hu Liena since then. Although he had later realized that everything that night had been orchestrated by the Two Enshrined, Hu Liena had indeed willingly offered herself to him for a second time.

Seeing her again, Wu Qingkong could not help feeling a little awkward. After all, she had done nothing wrong; there simply was no room in his heart for anyone else.
The two stood there in the corridor.
Hu Liena lowered her eyes, not daring to look up at Wu Qingkong's face. She knew there was no longer any chance of anything between them.
Looking at Wu Qingkong, she could not help recalling the two times she had offered herself to him, and a blush soon spread across her pretty face.
After a long while, she finally parted her lips and said softly, "Qingkong, congratulations on your marriage."
"May you and Sister Xue'er grow old together, your hair turning white side by side."
"Thank you!"
