Chapter 1373: Demon Sect Leader VS Righteous Maiden (Part 11)

Zhu Yue looked at the person in front of him.

He replied, "Before I saw Ye Li, I didn’t know why I was so determined to come here, but after seeing Ye Li, I understood."

"I came for you."

This answer obviously satisfied Gu Shengyin very much.

Her eyes, clear as glass, were filled with laughter, and she looked at Zhu Yue so directly, as if with endless implications: "You came for me? For what?"

Zhu Yue felt like his mind was about to get lost in those beautiful eyes.

He followed his heart’s desire and spoke of his deepest longing: "I came for you, wanting to stay by your side, wanting to embrace you, wanting to make you mine."

"If such words spread, I fear I might be regarded as a heart-ensnaring goblin."

Zhu Yue, looking at her smile, thought to himself: "Aren’t you a goblin? The moment I saw you, I felt there was nothing else in the world that mattered."

Gu Shengyin’s expression turned serious as she looked at Zhu Yue: "You admire me?"

Zhu Yue nodded, "I admire you."

Gu Shengyin stopped playing coy: "Well, that’s quite the coincidence. I rather like you too."

Zhu Yue’s face lit up with joy.

Although he could more or less guess her thoughts from her words and actions, hearing her admit it herself brought an uncontrollable surge of joy in his heart.

Gu Shengyin looked at him and smiled: "Zhu Yue, the moment I saw you, I wanted to capture you into my Demon Sect and make you the Sect Leader’s Wife."

Such words already sounded a bit disrespectful.

But Zhu Yue simply nodded: "Not a bad idea. It’s a pity I don’t remember my first meeting with Ye Li. I wonder if I also wanted to take Ye Li back then, to make him the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch’s Wife."

He then switched topics and said: "But being the Sect Hierarch’s husband doesn’t sound bad either. It’s not too late now, what does Ye Li think?"

Conversations between two straightforward people are so direct.

If such a dialogue were to spread through the Itinerant, who knows how many jaws it would drop.

However, given their personalities, they aren’t the type to care about such things.

Gu Shengyin felt a momentary rush in her heart upon hearing Zhu Yue’s words.

In her past life, she regretted not being able to stay together with him; she didn’t know if Zhu Yue’s personality in this life was also influenced.

But making such hasty decisions is irresponsible to both.

She looked at Zhu Yue and shook her head: "Even though I would love to announce to the world right now that you are mine, it’s not right."

"Wait until you recover your memories, and if you still think this way, how about I promise you a grand wedding then?"

Zhu Yue nodded with a smile.

Afraid that by then, someone else might be better suited to host the wedding.

Elder Li hurriedly returned from outside seeking an audience with the Sect Leader, only to find that all the attendants who usually served the Sect Leader closely were waiting outside the Waterside Pavilion.

He was somewhat puzzled: "The Sect Leader isn’t here?"

A white-clad maid replied: "The Sect Leader is hosting an esteemed guest."

Elder Li wondered about the identity of such a guest, and then saw their Sect Leader walking out shoulder to shoulder with a young man.

Seeing Zhu Yue, Elder Li’s gaze narrowed.

The Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, whose disappearance after a poisoning incident had been rumored far and wide, was here in the Demon Sect.

And with their Sect Leader!
