Chapter 625: Chapter Seventy-Eight Welcome Back
Ye Changsheng did not stay at Wuhua Palace tonight; he had important matters to attend to, and his schedule was already meticulously planned. Using the Void Scripture, he opened a void passage and departed from Qixia Isle. He then embarked on the Starry Sky Ancient Road, heading to another Star Domain. Now, Ye Changsheng could travel anywhere in the Universe as he pleased, as he was the only one capable of traversing the Starry Sky Ancient Road.
Ye Changsheng arrived in the East Victory Star Domain, a rather remote and desolate region with no other worlds nearby. It was a dim corner of the Star Domain. Here, Ye Changsheng employed a formation technique to create a minuscule Origin Realm. He was the sole individual aware of this place, ensuring no external interference. Despite its small size, only a few tens of thousands of square meters, the realm contained incredibly potent fluctuations, meticulously contained by the grand formation.
Upon landing in the small Origin Realm, Ye Changsheng coughed softly, as if dropping a hint. However, after a considerable while, there was no response. “Yingying?” Ye Changsheng inquired. “…” “Yingying, come out now.” “…” “Today is a very important day, you know. If we don’t hurry, we’ll miss tomorrow’s New Flower Festival,” Ye Changsheng stated.
“Tch~” Ye Changsheng heard Luo Yingying’s voice. He turned his head and saw his fiancée standing beside him, appearing as if she had materialized out of thin air, without a physical form. Ye Changsheng had indeed brought Luo Yingying out of the Great Dao’s body, but she had been so severely consumed by karmic punishment that her very existence had been almost erased. Therefore, Ye Changsheng had the remnants of Luo Yingying’s Divine Soul attached to his Spiritual Sea, coexisting with him. To others, Luo Yingying had become an unseen, intangible entity; in essence, a spirit.
“Changsheng went to be intimate with my sister again,” Luo Yingying pouted. “I was watching the whole time, and you weren’t even ashamed!” Yes, he did. Ye Changsheng had been with her sister right in front of Luo Yingying. In fact, it wasn’t just Luo Lihong; over the years, Luo Yingying had witnessed Ye Changsheng being with other girls. She was anxious and angry, but helpless, for she was merely a spirit. In Ye Changsheng’s own words, committing wrongdoing warranted punishment, and this was part of it.
“Are you jealous?” Ye Changsheng teased. “I don’t mind about my sister. But other women…” Luo Yingying’s eyes held a peculiar glint, “…that Hamster, that stinky Fox, and that self-righteous Lu Yue…” Seeing Luo Yingying about to descend into darkness, Ye Changsheng gently pulled her cheek, like stretching Cotton Candy. “Yingying?” “Wuwu!” “You want to rebel.” “I won’t rebel anymore. I’m Changsheng’s little sweet quilt; I won’t dare to do anything bad,” Luo Yingying quickly capitulated, acting obedient. After all these years, Ye Changsheng’s efforts had paid off, finally transforming the universe’s ultimate villain into his own obedient and adorable fiancée.
“You need to get along with them. No more scheming,” Ye Changsheng instructed. Luo Yingying averted her gaze, “That sounds like too much trouble.” “Of course, you can choose to give up. After all, I promised to marry you first. So, if you choose to give up, I can permit you to be a bit Willful—” Hearing this, Luo Yingying’s expression immediately changed. “No problem, Changsheng, don’t worry. They’re just a few troublesome women?” Luo Yingying’s demeanor shifted to confident and generous. “As the main wife, I will tolerate them.”
“Very good. Yingying, you’re becoming more sensible,” Ye Changsheng praised. “Then, there’s no time to delay. Let’s begin quickly.” Ye Changsheng produced a fragment, which was the remnants of the Great Dao’s core he had incidentally retrieved when leaving the Great Dao’s body. Although his current cultivation wasn’t high, he was still a Cult who had fully mastered the Primordial Scripture. With the right method, he could control the Great Dao’s core remnants and, by extension, the small Origin Realm. He had been working on this for years, toiling tirelessly for them, and today, it was finally about to bear fruit.
Under the rules created by the Great Dao’s core remnants, the Dao Slaying Divine Weapons within the small Origin Realm simultaneously awakened and resonated, unleashing earth-shattering might. They merged together, transforming into fluctuations that stirred the Universe upside down, causing the East Victory Star Domain to tremble. Luo Yingying’s Divine Soul departed from Ye Changsheng’s Spiritual Sea, bathing in the divine power of the awakened Dao Slaying Divine Weapons, and was infused into the seed of the Heartbreak Flower. The Heartbreak Flower had perished protecting Ye Changsheng and Luo Yingying, but at its last moment, it had given them a seed. This seed represented Luo Yingying’s hope for resurrection.
Under the baptism of immense energy, the seed of the Heartbreak Flower began to sprout, giving birth to supreme Vitality. It created a new body for Luo Lihong, enabling her to gradually regain her life. “It’s successful.” Witnessing it all, Ye Changsheng felt a sense of relief, as the Great Dao’s core remnants crumbled into dust in his hand. Finally, everything was coming to an end.
…
Peach Blossom City, New Flower Festival.
The streets were filled with a festive atmosphere. Colorful lanterns were hung everywhere, and beautiful flowers bloomed throughout the city, making Peach Blossom City look magnificent. Crowds paraded alongside dragon and lion dances, with young and old celebrating the arrival of spring with simple enthusiasm. Amidst it all, a young girl of unparalleled beauty, deliberately suppressing her presence, blended into the crowd, awaiting someone.
“So slow,” Luo Lihong muttered. “Changsheng, you’re not going to stand me up again, are you? It happened once before…” Luo Lihong had deliberately pushed aside her official duties, wanting nothing more than to spend time with Ye Changsheng today. After all, that guy was always elusive, always up to something. He had promised a surprise today, yet she hadn’t seen him. Luo Lihong was about to start complaining further when she decided to head back to Wuhua Palace. However, after a few steps, she heard someone strike up a conversation.

“Excuse me, beautiful Fairy, would you like a Tanghulu?” “…No, thank you.” Luo Lihong immediately refused, intending to brush off the person approaching her. But she paused, surprised. Hadn’t she concealed her presence? While she was pondering, the Tanghulu had already been pressed into her hand. Luo Lihong looked up and saw a young man wearing a peculiar mask and a bright smile. She immediately recognized her favorite prankster.
“You’re late!” Luo Lihong said with a smile, pointing the Tanghulu at Ye Changsheng. “My apologies, my apologies. So, I brought a peace offering.” Ye Changsheng removed the mask and tucked it behind Luo Lihong’s left ear, making her look even more adorable.
“These two aren’t enough,” Luo Lihong said, taking a bite of the Tanghulu. “I want a surprise.” “Ugh… Bummer, I forgot about that.” “You were so proud yesterday, and now you’re falling short?” Luo Lihong chuckled. “It seems even the master of time management, Ye Changsheng, isn’t all that.” Ye Changsheng was silent for a moment, then, after a brief pause, his eyes twinkled mischievously, and he unceremoniously scooped Luo Lihong up.
“Ah~!” “Don’t move around,” Ye Changsheng said. “You’re cheating!” “You can let go, but you’ll fall,” he added. “Hmph, threatening me? Let’s see what tricks you have up your sleeve?” Luo Lihong rubbed Ye Changsheng’s cheek. “Close your eyes.” “I don’t want to.” “Be good, obey.” “Alright, a special exception today. I’ll comply with you just this once.” Luo Lihong closed her eyes, wrapped her arms around Ye Changsheng’s neck, and felt him take her somewhere else. Since it was a surprise, she was excited and didn’t use her Spiritual Sense to probe her surroundings.
“We’re here.” Ye Changsheng gently set Luo Lihong down. Luo Lihong stood on the ground and opened her eyes, pausing in surprise. She saw hundreds, thousands of beautiful pinwheels. The night breeze blew, creating a pleasant sound, and illuminated by the brilliant lights, everything before her appeared dreamlike. Simultaneously, Luo Lihong noticed a girl hidden behind the pinwheels. The mask on the girl’s face was identical to the one tucked behind her own ear.
“This is a gift from her and me for you, Lihong,” Ye Changsheng whispered into Luo Lihong’s ear. Luo Lihong was stunned, feeling a sense of nostalgia and warmth, her eyes gradually welling up. Luo Yingying removed her mask and smiled at her sister: “I’m back, Sister.”
