Huzhang suddenly felt a strange sensation, as if a pair of eyes were watching him from afar. He could not help but look up, following the source of that peculiar feeling, only to be astonished to find that the person standing at the end of his gaze was none other than Leng Qingqiu. She stood there quietly, her expression cold and profound, commanding a sense of awe.
Beside Leng Qingqiu sat a man with a cold, stern face and a provocative air—Xiangliu. Huzhang’s heart tightened as rumors about them flooded his mind. It was said that the Underwater Demon Realm had once held an unprecedented and grand ceremony for the appointment of a Demon Queen. Huzhang had originally intended to crash the wedding and steal the bride, but a grave injury sustained during an urgent cultivation session had left him unable to travel, forcing him to give up.
For some time, Huzhang had been mired in a slump, his mood deeply dampened. He could not understand why, ever since his last breakthrough, his cultivation level had failed to improve in the slightest, no matter how hard he practiced. This left him confused and distressed, filling his future with uncertainty and unease.
