Chapter 118 Broken
The dinner was very lively, and the originally deadly main hall of the Demon Realm was filled with a joyful atmosphere. Xueyan sat in the stone room, looking at the gorgeous long skirt placed beside her frown. Leng Yue actually came to the real thing. She asked Xueyan to invite Xueyan to attend the dinner and also sat in the chairman as a guest. It was obvious that she wanted Xueyan to watch her love and Han Tian with her own eyes, and told Xueyan with her actions that Han Tian loved her.
The banquet had already begun, but Xueyan didn't want to attend. The noisy singing and dancing sounds reached Xueyan's ears from afar. Those who wanted to attend the banquet were celebrating their Highness Hantian and Princess Leng Yue's knot. What's going on?
"Why haven't you changed your clothes yet?" A group of maids came in to welcome Xueyan to the dinner.
Although Princess Leng Yue is rude, she loves Hantian. Xueyan cannot give Hantian the warmth. Wouldn't it be nice if someone gives him it?
"Let's go." What should come is always coming, but I can't hide it. Xueyan got up with her mask and walked out.
The singing and dancing were getting louder and louder. As soon as Xueyan walked into the hall, she saw Rao Ji dancing among the crowd. She had the almost perfect face of Yao Xiu'e, her figure was light and soft as boneless, and her dancing posture was as graceful as a fairy. Sometimes she was in the air, sometimes she raised her hand to stir the dark pool of stagnant water to life.
Everyone looked at her intently, fascinated by her beauty. Several nobles from the Demon Realm stared at her with their eyes fixed on her, almost drooling. However, the Ghost Emperor did not seem to notice it, but just glanced at the audience indifferently, inadvertently looking for the familiar figure in white.
Suddenly, the music stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at Xueyan. Xueyan somehow raised her head and looked around. It was the Ghost Emperor who raised her hand to stop the music. He sat up straight, his eyes fell on Xueyan's body, and there was a slutty smile on the corner of his mouth.
Rao Ji also put down her hands, with a slight irritation on her face. She glared at Xueyan, as if it was because Xueyan disturbed her singing and dancing.
Xueyan met her angry gaze, and then realized that it was she who interrupted the melody of the banquet. She quickly lowered her head, walked over from the side, and sat in a position in the corner.
The Ghost Emperor ordered, "Continue."
The music sounded again, but Rao Ji's dance steps were not as excited and focused as before, and she almost dealt with it.
After a song, Rao Ji walked up to the throne in a delicate way, snuggled beside the Ghost Emperor, and crossed his neck and said coquettishly. "Your Majesty, everyone suspects that this ugly monster was sent by the heavenly realm. Why didn't you kill her?" Her eyes fell on Xueyan hiding in the corner.
"She is a descendant of your demon clan. Do you hate her very much?" asked the Ghost Emperor.
"Of course." Rao Ji looked at Xueyan contemptuously and said loudly on purpose. "She is so ugly and is suspected to be the most good spirit in the heaven. Why did you keep her alive until now?" She let Xueyan hear it, she did it on purpose.
Xueyan didn't say anything, but just looked at the dance in front of her, pretending not to hear it, and the Ghost Emperor did not answer Rao Ji's question. Perhaps even the Ghost Emperor himself didn't know why he knew that Xueyan was not Xueqing, and even knew that she was the most kind spirit of heaven, and even though he knew that Xueyan was full of cold heaven, he still couldn't bear to kill her, and he himself didn't know the answer.
Xueyan felt Rao Ji's anger, raised her head and met her resentful gaze. Rao Ji seemed to have noticed the subtle relationship between the Ghost Emperor and Xueyan. She would definitely be unwilling to accept it if Xueyan was not removed.
"Little Demon." Rao Ji walked to Xueyan, lowered her head and looked at Xueyan's masked face. She couldn't see Xueyan's expression, but Xueyan could feel her jealousy. "You are a member of my demon clan, and once again suspected to be the most good spirit of the heaven. I guess it's because your demonic magic is very powerful. As the princess of the demon clan, do I really want to experience it?"
"Since Princess Raoji is the princess of my demon clan, the demonic magic must be the best among my demon clan. There is no need to compete. I am willing to give in." Xueyan did not get up, but just refused her lightly. When she came here, Xueyan was already very reluctant. She didn't want to cause trouble. She just wanted the banquet to end soon and she could leave as soon as possible.
Everyone's eyes seemed to fall on Xueyan. People looked at her with interest, waiting for her to make a fool of themselves. This banquet belongs to Hantian and Leng Yue, and Xueyan is an uninvited guest here.
"Haha, there is no reason to admit defeat before the competition." Rao Ji reached out to pull Xueyan. "Since I am a princess and a princess, I said I have to compete!"
"Is it difficult for Princess Raoji to use her identity to force others?" Xueyan suddenly withdrew her hand. "I am the distinguished guest invited by Princess Leng Yue, so I should have the right to refuse."
Xueyan looked at Leng Yue and avoided Rao Ji's burning gaze. Leng Yue was sitting next to Han Tian. She stared at Xueyan, her eyes full of victory.
Rao Ji and Xueyan were in a stalemate. Princess Leng Yue smiled sweetly, picked up the wine glass, stood up from Han Tian. She was wearing beautiful makeup and dragging a gorgeous long skirt, noble and elegant. I have to say that Princess Leng Yue is indeed beautiful, with a unique cold and charming temperament, which is breathtaking. She dressed up carefully for the dinner tonight. She was the only heroine in this banquet. She was the beauty present.
"This is my engagement banquet with His Highness Hantian. Since you said you were the distinguished guest I invited, do you have any blessings to me and His Highness Hantian?" Leng Yue walked slowly to Xueyan, raised her eyebrows and asked, with a smug smile on her lips. "I, Princess Leng Yue, are going to marry His Highness Hantian. We will be loving for the rest of our lives, and we need your blessings very much!"
Xueyan was stunned for a moment, thinking that Han Tian was about to marry Leng Yue as his concubine and join hands with her for the rest of his life, Xueyan's mind was blank.
"What? Do you have nothing to say?" Leng Yue looked at Xueyan contemptuously, aggressively.
Xueyan held the wine glass in front of her and stood up from her seat. "I wish your highness and the princess..." Xueyan's hand trembled, and how could she say anything else to wish her?
Leng Yue saw Xueyan's pain and became even more proud. She wanted to use this banquet to suppress Xueyan so that she knew that as long as she was the person she, Princess Leng Yue, fell in love with, would definitely get it.
"Today is my engagement banquet with His Highness Hantian. Isn't it too shabby to send you just one blessing? Isn't it too shabby? Is there any gift or singing and dancing to help us liven up?"
Leng Yue turned around and waved her hand. The music stopped abruptly. The dancing girl tactfully bowed away. She wanted to take this opportunity to mock Xueyan and make her embarrass her in public. She would not be willing to just listen to a blessing.
"Why do you perform a song and dance for us so that I can know how happy you are. How about it?" Leng Yue leaned close to Xueyan and looked at her in pain.
"I..." Xueyan was already sad, so she could perform singing and dancing.
Everyone present in the Demon World applauded when they heard Princess Leng Yue’s proposal, waiting for Xueyan to cheer them up.
"My demon clan has been good at singing and dancing since ancient times. Since you say you are a descendant of my demon clan, don't embarrass me!" Rao Ji said with malicious intentions.
Xueyan knew that although the magical race in the Demon Realm was slightly weaker than other races, she could sing and dance, and her appearance was definitely the most beautiful in the Demon Realm. However, knowing that it was one thing, and being able to do it was another. She only felt that her heart was very painful, so she could perform any singing and dancing to cheer her up.
"What? Do you want to refuse Princess Leng Yue's order? She is the one who is about to marry His Highness Han Tian, and is the one who is in the heart of His Highness Han Tian!" Rao Ji whispered maliciously. She liked to see Xueyan sad, and just used this matter to stimulate her with words. "If you offend her, you will offend His Highness Han Tian, you have to think it through it!"
Xueyan had not moved for a long time, and she felt so sad that her whole body was out of control. The pain in her heart pressed her into breathing.
"Princess Leng Yue is unhappy, Your Highness Han Tian will be unhappy. Today is their engagement banquet, don't discourage their interest!" Leng Yue and Rao Ji were arrogant and pressed against each other. They could see that Xueyan was struggling in her heart, and she wanted to use this banquet to embarrass her.
Xueyan could not refuse this request, and these two people would not give her the chance to refuse.
Forget it, since I can't get it, why don't I let him go? Xueyan calmed down and let herself temporarily let go of the pain in her heart. She turned around and looked at the corner below the stage. There happened to be a piano in the team playing music. Xueyan walked over, put her wine glass aside, and tried the tone casually. It was not bad.
"Since the princess is so interested, I can only obey my destiny." Xueyan bowed and sat in front of the piano. She calmed her breathing, calmed her mind, and let herself be freed from her grief.
The rhythm is the most satisfying thing. Xueyan's jade fingers gently plucked, slowly opening the graceful music. Her fingers seemed to be dancing among the strings of the piano. The sound of the piano was soothing and smooth, spreading in the hall. Everyone in the hall listened quietly, and the sound of the piano was like the constant rushing lake water, washing their hearts one after another.
No one spoke in the hall, except for the sound of the piano. Everyone was listening attentively, as if everyone's consciousness was brought into Xueyan's sound of the piano.
After the song was over, everyone had not yet recovered from the sound of the piano, such a soft and beautiful rhythm still lingers in everyone's heart.
Such peaceful and quiet songs cannot be heard in the Demon Realm. The Demon Realm is full of noisy and exciting melody that inspires people to fight. It is rare to hear such a beautiful piano sound, and everyone is savoring it carefully.
Han Tian got up, walked down from the throne, and walked to Xueyan. Xueyan was stunned for a moment. After a song, her heart was much calmer, and even Han Tian could face it calmly.
Xueyan knew very well that she was just a trivial little demon in Han Tian's eyes. It was a great gift for him to die without a single palm. Now the Big King is going to plot to hurt him, and Xueyan cannot let such a thing happen. Since she cannot accompany him, it is better to protect him silently. She wants Big King to stop the conspiracy and the demons from fighting in the two realms. She wants Han Tian to live well. This is enough. Whether she can be with him forever is no longer so important.
"See Your Highness Hantian." Xueyan stood up and saluted. It doesn't matter if she met strangers, as long as I remember that I love you.
Han Tian did not pay attention to Xueyan saluting him, but pulled her up casually, held her face domineeringly, took off her mask, and looked at her with all eyes. Without the mask's cover, Xueyan's appearance appeared naked in front of Han Tian. The two of them just looked at each other, silent.
Leng Yue was shocked. She was afraid that Han Tian would face Xueyan. She was afraid that Han Tian would look at her so focusedly. She was afraid that Han Tian would think of her past with Xueyan. Once Han Tian remembered Xueyan, Princess Leng Yue would be nothing.
The little demon in front of him was so familiar, but Han Tian’s heart was empty. He searched every corner of his heart, but there was no trace of Xueyan. For some reason, he inexplicably wanted to get close to her. Xueyan’s breath made him feel very comfortable.
Leng Yue looked at the two of them anxiously, secretly regretting why she had just come out to provoke Xueyan, and regretting that she shouldn't provoke her. Now that Han Tian has noticed her, she can only secretly pray that Han Tian will not think of Xueyan.
"What's the name of this song?" Han Tian asked, his tone was not warm, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.
Xueyan's answer is only three words. "Hanxue Fu!"
Han Tian, you chose the name of this song? Have you really forgotten it?
Hantian and Xueyan looked at each other, and his eyes were still beautifully blue, but it was no longer a quiet lake, but a lonely and icy mountain top. Xueyan saw herself in his eyes. She was still the same as before, but she could no longer see the tenderness of Hantian.
Leng Yue saw that the situation was not good. She hurried over with the wine she had not drunk just now, deliberately hit Hantian, and spilled the wine in the glass on Hantian.
"Sorry." Leng Yue said apologetically, Han Tian and Xueyan's confrontation was interrupted.
"What are you doing?" Han Tian asked in a deep voice, with a slight anger in his tone.
"I...I didn't mean it." Looking at Han Tian's slightly angry face, Leng Yue immediately lost her beauty. She and Han Tian were about to get married. She didn't expect that Han Tian was angry just because of such a small mistake. She hurriedly wiped the wine stains sprinkled on Han Tian's clothes, and did not forget to block Han Tian and Xueyan, so that they could keep a distance.
"Brother Hantian, I'll accompany you to change your clothes." She raised her head and smiled, intending to interrupt Hantian and Xueyan's communication.
But Han Tian was still looking at Xueyan with concentration, as if he wanted to find the past he lost in Xueyan.
Leng Yue was a little panicked. She hurriedly took Han Tian's arm, pretended to be intimate and leaned on him, looking at Xueyan with a smile. "Brother Han Tian and I are going to get married, you must be very happy."
Xueyan looked at her in a daze. Han Tian became like this. Her heart was bleeding. She felt her heart hurt so much. She was addicted to sadness, but Xueyan knew that this was the best result for Han Tian.
"Didn't you give any blessings to Your Highness and me just now? Tell me!"
I can't give it to you, so let Princess Leng Yue give it to you. Xueyan sighed secretly, silently held the wine glass placed beside her, and raised it high. "May Your Highness Hantian and Princess Leng Yue... be united forever forever!" Xueyan paused for a while, endured the pain in her heart, and said it word by word. She looked at Hantian, and her eyes were filled with pain.
This is Leng Yue's blessing wine. In Xueyan's hands, it was like a glass of poison, indicating that Xueyan and Hantian would have no relationship. Xueyan closed her eyes and held back the tears in her heart. After drinking this glass of wine, she would be strangers to Hantian.
When Xueyan was about to drink it all, her wrist was suddenly held. Xueyan opened her eyes and it was cold weather!
Han Tian held Xueyan's wrist and stared straight into her eyes. The two of them were in a stalemate without saying anything.
Han Tian seemed to have something to say, but he didn't even know what he wanted to say, and there was nothing in his empty heart.
Until the wine glass in her hand was knocked down and the fine wine was spilled all over the floor. Xueyan stood there and watched all this. She wanted to embrace Hantian, but she couldn't. As the most kind spirit of heaven, she would never be able to give Hantian happiness. It would be better to just do it. Seeing him well is what Xueyan wants the most.
In fact, Han Tian didn't know why he knocked down the wine glass in Xueyan's hand. He just didn't want her to drink this glass of wine, and didn't want to see her so sad, but he didn't know why.
In today's cold sky, there is nothing but endless power and a blank heart.
"You guys come here and clean up the place." Leng Yue hurriedly took this opportunity to call many maids and hurriedly pulled Han Tian away. "Brother Han Tian, I will accompany you to change your clothes."
Xueyan did not pay attention to when Hantian and Leng Yue left. A group of people were busy packing a small wine glass at Xueyan's feet. Xueyan collapsed in her seat, biting her lips tightly, preventing herself from crying.
In the cold sky, I missed you after all. I wish you happiness in the future.
All this was seen in the eyes of the Ghost Emperor. He sat on the throne quietly, feeling sad. The Ghost Emperor did not expect Xueyan's love for Han Tian would be so unforgettable. He held the wine glass in front of him and drank it all, murmured in a low voice. "I really envy you, Han Tian!"
