591: Chapter 610: The First Appearance of an Emotional Tribulation 591: Chapter 610: The First Appearance of an Emotional Tribulation At that moment,

Ye Xuan slowly drew breath and then gently exhaled.

Although he appeared calm on the surface, his heart had already begun to churn like surging waves.

He had never anticipated the Guanghan Fairy would appear on his wedding day, which left Ye Xuan unsure how to face her.

But Ye Xuan was not one to run from confrontation.

Since the Guanghan Fairy had appeared at the Heavenly Court, he naturally had to face her.

Fleeing was not a choice he would consider.

A glance that spanned ten thousand years, a dreamlike ephemeral blossom.

When Ye Xuan looked towards the Guanghan Fairy, their eyes met in the void, rendering the heavens and the earth silent and solemn, as if they were the only two in existence.

“You’ve come,” Ye Xuan spoke softly.

“Mm, I have,” said the Guanghan Fairy with a smile, yet her smile had a tinge of bitterness.

Their brief exchange was followed by silence.

Ye Xuan didn’t know what to say, and the Guanghan Fairy was not one to question him; everything was communicated in their silence.

“Ye Xuan, today I attend your wedding, I wonder if you welcome me?”

Suddenly, Kua Fu spoke with an icy tone, striding towards the Turquoise Pool with the Guanghan Fairy, until the two of them stood at the center of the Pool, finally causing the entwined gaze between Ye Xuan and the Guanghan Fairy to part.

“Having friends come from afar is a joy indeed,” Ye Xuan said calmly, his demeanor unchanged by Kua Fu’s attitude.

“Is this sister the Guanghan Fairy?” The Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden spoke with a light and beautiful smile, stepping up to the Guanghan Fairy without a hint of hostility.

“It truly is your fortune that Ye Xuan is able to marry you,” the Guanghan Fairy said softly, sighing.

“The little sister has long heard of the sister as the foremost Fairy of the Three Realms, and seeing today, her reputation is well-deserved.

Now that sister has come to my wedding with Ye Xuan, I hope after partaking in the wedding wine, you might stay longer in the Heavenly Court.”

The Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden kept smiling, yet her smile was incredibly strained, for she knew the arrival of the Guanghan Fairy would undoubtedly bring complications.

“There’s no need for wedding wine, may I have a moment alone with Ye Xuan?” the Guanghan Fairy asked calmly, though anyone listening closely could detect a tremble in her voice.

Hearing the Guanghan Fairy’s request caused a subtle change in the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden’s face, her lips tightened, then she forced a smile and said, “As long as my husband agrees, I have no objections.”

Silence enveloped everything, and not a sound was heard from heaven and earth.

The conversation between the two women was like a war without smoke, the guests’ faces twisted with odd expressions while Kong Xuan and others sighed internally, knowing they could not intervene in such a matter, nor could they assist Ye Xuan.

“Come with me.”

Suddenly, Ye Xuan stepped forward, to the astonished gazes of those around him, he took the Guanghan Fairy’s hand and in an instant, the two disappeared from the center of the Turquoise Pool.

This scene left the guests with strange expressions, while the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden clenched her fists tightly, her chest heaving with fierce emotion, a profoundly bitter feeling sprouting at the bottom of her heart.

“Today is the auspicious union of the Heavenly Emperor and me, I invite all fellow immortals to drink a few more cups.”

Three breaths later, the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden smiled tenderly, exuding the magnanimity of the Queen Mother of the Heavenly Court, and had the fairies serve wine to the guests, which somewhat eased the oppressive atmosphere in the Turquoise Pool.

“Sister, you can rest assured, Brother Ye Xuan will definitely give you an explanation,” Kong Xuan comforted the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden through a secret voice transmission.

Hearing Kong Xuan’s words, the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden gave a tragic smile without saying anything, merely gazing in the direction where Ye Xuan and the Guanghan Fairy had vanished, the bitterness in her heart growing ever more intense.

…

Beneath the lofty osmanthus tree on the Taiyin Star, the bright moonlight shone down, casting Ye Xuan and the Guanghan Fairy in an untainted light.

They sat opposite each other in silence, uncertain of what to say.

“Do you hate me?” Ye Xuan finally broke the silence.

“I don’t hate you,” said the Guanghan Fairy, her gaze lowered, the Immortal Light around her body subtly fluctuating.

“Actually, I shouldn’t have come.

Today is your wedding day.

I begged Brother Kua Fu to bring me here to see you, just to see you one last time,” the Guanghan Fairy slowly raised her head, her eyes already blurred with tears.

A single clear tear tracked down the Guanghan Fairy’s cheek, and as this droplet fell to the ground, it made a sound too soft to be heard, causing Ye Xuan’s spirit to tremble.

He dared not look into the Guanghan Fairy’s eyes.

“Chang’e, you shouldn’t cry for me.

You should know that I follow the Heartless Dao, and I will not fall in love with any woman in this lifetime!” Ye Xuan took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled, raising his hand to gently wipe the tear from the corner of the Guanghan Fairy’s eye.

“Whether heartless or passionate, I only know that the person I love is you, and that has never changed,” the Guanghan Fairy murmured to herself, a baffling smile on her lips.

Hearing the Guanghan Fairy’s words and seeing the smile on her face, Ye Xuan’s spirit was more unsettling, a sour emotion sprouting in the depths of his heart, causing him to slowly turn away, unable to bear looking at the Guanghan Fairy’s face.

“With the Heavenly Court newly established and many tasks awaiting attention, since I took the position of the Heavenly Emperor, various Daoist sects have been eyeing us closely.

Whether for the sake of my own cultivation or for the stability of the Heavenly Court, only the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden can shoulder the role of the Queen Mother,” Ye Xuan spoke softly.

“Ye Xuan, you really don’t need to explain to me.

I know your heart has never dwelt on love.

I also believe that you can attain sainthood in the future.

My appearing before you today was just to see you one last time,”

the Guanghan Fairy murmured to herself as she stretched out her arms and gently embraced Ye Xuan, resting her head against his back as if in that moment he belonged only to her.

“Without the strife of the Three Realms, without the path to becoming a celestial, let me hold you for a while.

In this moment, you belong only to me.”

The Guanghan Fairy’s voice came from behind Ye Xuan, and he felt her soft body against his, while a moisture seeped into his back – the Guanghan Fairy’s silent tears clenched his fists tightly, and his spirit trembled to the extreme.

“Little E, do you believe in the future?”

Ye Xuan’s voice shook as he asked, turning around slowly within the Guanghan Fairy’s embrace, a look of bewilderment crossing his eyes.

“No matter what the future holds, I just want to enjoy this moment of peace with you,” the Guanghan Fairy said touching Ye Xuan’s chiseled face and gently nestling her head into his chest.

“If one day I have to kill you, would you think I’m inhuman?” Ye Xuan’s eyes closed tight, his voice quivering.

“If dying for you would be my fate, I would gladly accept it,” the Guanghan Fairy replied beneath the osmanthus tree, smiling serenely as she leaned into Ye Xuan’s embrace, her voice tender and certain.

Like thunder from the Nine Heavens that shocked the soul or ocean waves that churn, Ye Xuan’s heart trembled violently.

His eyes widened in a stunned gaze, and his entire being sank into an indescribable state.
