Chapter 2172: Honeymoon Extra—The Monster Emperor’s Beloved Husband (Part 16)

Upon hearing Gu Shengyin’s response and her respectful term of "Elder," Sect Master Bai Xiao and his wife felt quite complicated.

However, purely talking about age and experience, it wasn’t unreasonable for this newly ascended Monster Emperor to call them "Elder."

What could they do? When they first heard their son bringing back someone he liked, they weren’t holding the intention to embarrass the girl or force them apart.

And so...

The group began to enter the main hall.

After all, no matter how humble Gu Shengyin spoke, her status was obvious, and the welcoming banquet was still quite grand—even though it was the kind of importance without any intimacy.

This was the most courteous approach.

However, after seeing their son’s interaction with this Monster Emperor, the sect master couple felt they might have been blind, thinking they possibly made a mistake.

Even with so many outsiders present, the couple’s behavior was quite restrained.

Nonetheless, that son who gently smiled at his beloved, personally poured her wine, served her food, and ate what she served him effortlessly...

Was this really their son, the one who was so aloof from worldly matters?

In the grand hall, there were quite a few elders—many of whom were millennium-long singles—all dazzled by this young couple.

Honestly, they didn’t quite understand. This young couple wasn’t doing anything excessive, just occasionally sharing a smile, or pouring wine, peeling a Spirit Fruit for each other.

They had seen much more outlandish behavior than this.

But the strange thing was, although these were very common behaviors between partners, there seemed to be an enveloping atmosphere of harmony between them, making it feel like there was no room for any other presence.

They must be very in love and happy.

Everyone who saw this scene in the hall thought this, including Sect Master Bai Xiao and his wife.

The couple exchanged glances, seeing the emotions in each other’s eyes.

After the banquet ended, Ji Yu took Gu Shengyin to his parents’ residence at White Sky Peak.

The sect master couple seemed to know they would come, waiting there.

No one knew what they discussed at White Sky Peak.

It was only known that the Monster Empress Bai Yin just incidentally remained at White Sky Immortal Sect.

More than half a month passed until Gu Shengyin returned to Monster Emperor Mountain, while Ji Yu stayed behind.

Meanwhile, a piece of news spread from White Sky Peak—Three months later, He Qionglou would marry Monster Empress Bai Yin at White Sky Immortal Sect.

The news spread, causing an uproar.

No one expected the White Sky Immortal Sect’s attitude to be so straightforward.

Did they just agree?

What happened to the torturous, life-and-death inter-species romance stories in those scripts?

Turns out it’s all deceit!

In reality, where is all that drama!

The White Sky Immortal Sect couple had an open mind, seemingly seeing that their son and His Majesty the Monster Emperor were truly in love with genuine intentions and plans to spend a lifetime together.

Since that’s the case, why would they commit the morally wrong act of breaking up a loving pair?

Of course, there was another reason they agreed so quickly, which was Gu Shengyin declaring a vow in their presence to the Heavenly Dao, swearing to love He Qionglou alone for life, and if she broke it, she would face tribulation thunder, leaving no trace.

For the Monster Race, the once-in-a-millennium Tribulation Thunder is the most terrifying thing in this world.

A vow to the Heavenly Dao like this can be considered quite decisive.
