Chapter 317: The Sect Leader Wakes Up Grumpy Every Day (65)

Jun Jiuling said lightly, “Let’s wait for a while longer.”

Yun Niang’s lips curled slightly, and there was a hint of a smile in her eyes. “Alright, we’ll wait until Madam recovers.”

But this wait brought news that no one wanted to hear.

Three days’ time, three days spent together, but it felt like a fleeting moment.

After finishing her medicine, Shen Mubai lay in bed, watching Jun Jiuling tuck her in. She wanted to say something but found herself speechless.

Sensing her gaze, Jun Jiuling looked over, a hint of indulgence in his eyes. “What’s wrong?”

Shen Mubai shook her head.

“Goodnight.”

Farewell, Jun Jiuling.

Bending down, he placed a kiss on the girl’s forehead. Jun Jiuling’s voice was low and gentle.

“Goodnight.”

As he walked out the door, the system’s prompt echoed in Shen Mubai’s mind. “Three days have passed. Please prepare to move on to the next world, Host.”

…

Yun Niang would never forget the day when the master came out of the room carrying the Madam, his eyes devoid of life, his face expressionless, more chilling than hysteria.

She could only tremble her lips, trying to speak.

“master…”

Those deep, dark eyes remained calm. Jun Jiuling looked at Yun Niang and said emotionlessly, “Third Hall Master, the matter of marriage is now in your hands.”

Yun Niang was stunned, unable to say a word in front of the master.

Wu Er and the others were the same, only able to watch as the master walked past, tightly holding the person in his arms.

The wedding took place that day, and some elders were so angry that they almost vomited blood, vehemently opposing it.

But no matter how much they opposed it, Jun Jiuling’s decision could not be swayed by anyone.

Dressed in bright red wedding attire, even the hall was filled with joy, yet the bride was already deceased.

Though it was supposed to be a joyful day, no one in the sect could muster a smile, except for Jun Jiuling.

Supporting the bride, he continued the unfinished wedding from that day.

The smile on his lips was gentle and affectionate, but it sent shivers down the spines of those who watched.

As Yun Niang, acting as the witness, tried to speak, tears streamed down her face, and she choked with sobs.

Jun Jiuling, dressed in a groom’s attire, lifted his handsome face. His slender figure was impeccable beneath his dark hair, and his long, narrow eyes were deep and bottomless.

The gentle smile on his lips sent a chill down one’s spine.

“Third Master, you can start reading now,” he said. Yunniang, choking up, struggled to say the words, “Please pay respects to the groom and bride.”

“First bow to heaven and earth…”

“Second bow to the parents…”

“Husband and wife bow to each other…”

She could not say the next words, and Yun Niang could only cover her mouth, tears streaming out of the corners of her eyes, choking her throat.

Raising his gaze, Jun Jiuling’s eyes fell darkly on her.

“Third Hall Master, it’s my and Bai Bai’s big day today.”

After saying this, he glanced down at the hall and said calmly, “Why do you all have mournful faces?”

Those people shivered, forcing a hideous smile on their faces.

But Jun Jiuling smiled contentedly. He lifted the red veil covering the girl’s head, revealing her slightly pale face. Due to the rouge applied, it had a somewhat eerie look.

But Jun Jiuling didn’t seem to notice. His smile was tender and affectionate, and his eyes were full of overflowing love. He leaned down to kiss the girl’s forehead and whispered softly, “Bai Bai, after the ceremony, you’ll be my wife.”

After the wedding, the groom led the bride out of the hall, leaving behind the elders, hall masters, and disciples.

Someone murmured, “The master has gone mad.”

Like a bombshell, the words fell into everyone’s ears, piercing their eardrums with pain.

Jun Jiuling disappeared with the body, and no one knew where he went.

In the Fire Lotus Sect, only Yun Niang and Wu Er, along with a few others, watched eagerly from the mountain every day, praying for the master’s return.

Even if he returned with cold ashes, even if he only married that one person in this lifetime.
