Chapter 1479: Chapter 1438: The Reality of Husband and Wife

“Lu Chuan… you’re so warm.”

Cuddled in Lu Chuan’s arms, Kong Zhaozhao curled the corners of her lips and said with a smile, “I wish I could be as warm as you…”

“Soon, very soon!”

Lu Chuan sped away, quickly left the Heavenly Prison, and departed from the Penglai Immortal Sect.

Lu Chuan initially wanted to find a safe place, or simply return to the secular world from Penglai Immortal Domain, but unfortunately, he could still hold on, yet Kong Zhaozhao couldn’t last much longer.

Seeing Kong Zhaozhao’s body covered in a layer of frost, Lu Chuan bit his teeth, took out a few clothes from his own space and spread them on the ground, set up a barrier around, then placed Kong Zhaozhao onto the clothes, breaking apart her frozen garments revealing a fair physique.

Sadly, the situation was urgent, Lu Chuan had no mind for appreciation, he could only operate the Dual Cultivation Secret Method to suppress the Frost Poison within Kong Zhaozhao.

Meanwhile, within Penglai Immortal Sect, someone finally noticed the disturbance in the Heavenly Prison and immediately reported it. Kong Yuanliang, who was resting, felt something was amiss when he heard the report from his subordinates and hurriedly went to check the Heavenly Prison.

The sight made Kong Yuanliang’s face change slightly.

The entire Heavenly Prison was sealed within blocks of extreme cold ice; the prison guards and elders guarding it were all frozen in place. No wonder it took so long for someone to finally notice the anomaly.

But… throughout the entire Penglai Immortal Domain, who else could accomplish this other than his precious daughter?

Even if Kong Yuanliang’s heart held a thousand and ten thousand disbeliefs, the facts presented in front of him left him no room to refute.

“But… Zhaozhao, why would you do this?”

Kong Yuanliang clenched his jaw tightly, walked slowly toward the Heavenly Prison, struck a palm out, shattering the ice crystals into smithereens, swirling clouds of ice debris to vanish into thin air.

Thus, Kong Yuanliang entered the Heavenly Prison. Even though he could no longer sense Lu Chuan’s aura, he still wanted to verify with his own eyes.

And when he arrived at Lu Chuan’s cell, seeing the already destroyed chains, his expression grew increasingly grim.

“Convey my orders, seal off Penglai Immortal Domain, allow no one in or out, find the whereabouts of Lu Chuan; alive, we see him, dead, we see the body!”

“Yes, Sect Master!”

The elders seemed frozen, dared not even breathe heavily.

It was the first time they saw the Sect Master so angry, Lu Chuan’s escape seemed to involve the Sect Master’s daughter too, adding betrayal from family fueled Kong Yuanliang’s burning anger!

Unfortunately, years of a comfortable life had already turned the people of Penglai Immortal Domain into good-for-nothings. Even though the tasks were delegated, few were willing to exert their full efforts in execution, searched for two days, yet neither Lu Chuan nor Kong Zhaozhao’s whereabouts were uncovered.

“Worthless, all of you are worthless!”

In the hall!

Kong Yuanliang roared, his voice piercing the skies and cracking the stones, deafening all, making everyone shiver with nobody daring to respond.

“Two days, I’ve given you two days! Yet you can’t even find two living people! Lu Chuan kidnapped my daughter; if my daughter faces any mishap, I will hold you accountable!”

“Sect, Sect Master!”

“Spit it out if you have words!”

“Sect Master, someone just reported… the young lady has returned.”

Upon hearing this, Kong Yuanliang’s eyes lit up immediately, stood up abruptly, urgently said, “Quick, quickly bring her to see me!”

“Yes!”

That person left hastily, soon returned with Kong Zhaozhao, dressed in a red robe, her black hair tied into a cloud bun brought to the hall.

Seeing his daughter dressed like this, Kong Yuanliang’s heart chilled halfway.

In Penglai Immortal Domain, only women who are already wedded would wear red and tie cloud buns, symbolizing a change in status.

And Kong Zhaozhao wore such a garment, even though Kong Yuanliang was unwilling to admit it, he guessed what had truly occurred.

But at the moment, especially in front of so many Penglai Immortal Sect elders, Kong Yuanliang didn’t wish to embarrass his daughter, temporarily suppressing his anger inside, he softly and concernedly said, “Zhaozhao, are you alright! Did that bastard Lu Chuan harm you in any way?”

“Father, your daughter and Lu Chuan have already consummated as husband and wife, although briefly, but now, your daughter and Lu Chuan are married couples; please don’t refer to your son-in-law in such terms.”

“You… what did you say?”

“If Father didn’t hear clearly, your daughter can repeat it once more.”

“I’m asking why! Do you know Lu Chuan is clearly the mortal enemy of Penglai Immortal Domain? He has killed countless of our people, and as my daughter, how can you be involved with such a person?”

Meeting Kong Yuanliang’s bloodshot eyes, Kong Zhaozhao remained calm, responded firmly, “Because your daughter likes him, Lu Chuan infiltrated Penglai Immortal Domain multiple times to save her from danger, fully dissolved the Frost Poison within her; this daughter’s life was reclaimed from the Gates of Hell by him again and again, is that reason enough?”

“What? Lu Chuan cured your Frost Poison?”

“If Father does not trust, he can come forward to examine.”

Kong Zhaozhao extended her hand calmly, Kong Yuanliang naturally unwilling to believe, quickly stepped forth and grabbed it; upon touch, the warmth left him stunned.

Since Kong Zhaozhao was struck by Frost Poison, her body temperature was extremely low, nearly at the freezing point; this normal human body temperature, Kong Yuanliang had hoped for over twenty years.

“It’s actually true…”

Kong Yuanliang gently injected spiritual power into Kong Zhaozhao, after investigation, almost all trace of Frost Poison was dissolved completely, without any residue left.

“Now Father is willing to believe? If not for Lu Chuan, I would’ve been tortured to death by Frost Poison long ago. I know Father cares about me, tirelessly striving for over two decades just to let his daughter survive.”

“So Father, could you spare Lu Chuan for my sake? Past grudges were all caused by Penglai Immortal Domain; if Father still refuses to let go, your daughter is willing to trade her life for Lu Chuan’s safety.”

Facing Kong Zhaozhao’s gaze, Kong Yuanliang staggered back a few steps, seeming as if aged a hundred years.

“Zhaozhao, is Lu Chuan worth it for you?”

“Why won’t Father ask if it’s worth it for Lu Chuan to seal my memories, endure the torment of Spirit Suppressing Nail just to spare me pain? Some questions already had answers from the start.

If Father must hear it personally to relent… Yes, for Lu Chuan, I’m willing to do anything, even death; if Father doesn’t believe, then please act.”

Saying this, Kong Zhaozhao closed her eyes, slowly opened her arms.

“…Where is Lu Chuan now?”

“He has already left Penglai Immortal Domain.”

“Then why did you return?”

“If your daughter didn’t return, Father would only think Lu Chuan kidnapped me; this event would only escalate further. Therefore, I returned.”
