It had only been seven years since the three-year agreement. In such a short period of time, even an outstanding genius like her, who was ranked in the top 30 of the Prodigy Tournament and had the secret technique of the Imperial Dynasty to nurture her, had only advanced to the late Star Rank.
Initially, Nangong Yao thought that as long as she continued to work hard, she would have a chance to catch up to Shen Ping. At that time, she would marry him and the two of them would be a match made in heaven.
She did not expect Shen Ping to have already advanced to the Star Platform. She had stayed in the Imperial Dynasty and knew that even the Star Palace experts would need at least a few thousand years to break through to the Star Platform. This was even if they had outstanding talent and bloodlines.
“Star Platform…” A bitter smile appeared on Nangong Yao’s lips. She did not even dare to look up at Shen Ping. She had once said that she wanted to pursue the peak of her bloodline. She wanted to stand at the peak and look at the scenery. She did not want to be restricted by love. Yet now, not only did the gap between them not shrink, but it also widened again to the point where it was difficult to catch up.
Could it be that love really wouldn’t affect cultivation?! For the first time, Nangong Yao’s belief was affected.
“Sister Yao.” Shen Ping looked at Nangong Yao. “Have you thought it through?”
Nangong Yao took a deep breath and nodded slowly. “I’ve thought about it. Brother Shen, I’ll immediately ask my great-grandfather to choose an auspicious day.”
Shen Ping smiled and reached out to place his hand on the edge of Nangong Yao’s waist. Then, he exerted a little force and the latter leaned into his arms. He lowered his head and looked at the face that looked like Immortal Venerable Yao’s. His lips moved closer.
Nangong Yao closed her eyes. Soon, she felt the warmth between her lips. As expected of someone with a fire-elemental bloodline, even her lips were warm.
After kissing for a while, the beautiful woman in his arms tensed up. He could even clearly feel the muscles in her legs contract. He did not continue. “The world is in chaos. Sister Yao, stay in Jizhou City and cultivate in the future. Use the blood beads I gave you when you should.”
“Yao’er will listen to Brother Shen.”
Ten days later, Jizhou City became lively. On this day, not only would Shen Ping marry Nangong Yao, but he would also marry Lian Nishang and Ling Yu’er. As for Ling Qing and Ji Ruyue, due to their ident.i.ties, they could only perform a simple bow at night.
It was not yet noon when the various aristocratic families of Jizhou, as well as the factions of the other continents, including the Ji Family and other aristocratic families in the Imperial Capital, all sent important Star Palace cultivators to his residence to congratulate them.
The other members of the Demon Suppression Division also arrived.
Although Shen Ping was still a guardian so far, no one dared to be negligent when they knew his strength. Even Mount Ba and the other sects of the Demon G.o.d Sect had sent experts to send congratulatory gifts.
After the Imperial Dynasty found out, they even asked the prince to personally visit them. This shocked the aristocratic families in Jizhou who did not know Shen Ping’s true strength.
In the courtyard of the mansion, the Cheng Family, the Wu Family, Old Ancestor Nangong, and the other Star Realm experts didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. Looking around, almost every bloodline aura carried pressure. Clearly, they were all at the Star Palace Realm. However, they deliberately restrained themselves with smiles on their faces. No matter who they met, they were polite.
“Nangong, w-what’s going on?”
“That’s right. Guardian Shen has extraordinary potential. There will naturally be many factions congratulating him on his wedding. But, there shouldn’t be so many big shots coming, right? Even the princes of the Imperial Dynasty are here, and there are many Star Palace realm demons…”
Old Ancestor Nangong was also shocked. He really could not understand this scene. However, no matter what the reason was, his Nangong family’s reputation would definitely soar after this.
The wedding lasted for three days and three nights before the commotion died down. Under the red candle in the room, Shen Ping lifted his cold face. Nangong Yao lowered her head. “Husband, I’m sorry for making you wait for so long.”
“For you, I can wait as long as I want.”
Shen Ping kissed her again. His broad palm slowly stretched across Nangong Yao’s fair skin and crossed the stream from her thick b.u.t.t. Instantly, Nangong Yao’s entire body seemed to have melted as she collapsed on the bed.
As his bones. .h.i.t the depths of her meridians, the fire bloodline surged and completely enveloped the bone. Unlike Lian Nishang’s shyness and boldness; Ji Ruyue’s hot initiative carried a hint of tenacity,Nangong Yao did not frown and let Shen Ping continue even if it was the first awakening of her bloodline.
A full six days pa.s.sed. Shen Ping only stopped when he felt Nangong Yao’s meridians expand. His gaze landed on Nangong Yao’s pink body and he smiled. “What do you think, Yao’er?”

Although Nangong Yao didn’t care about this body, after such a long time, she finally experienced a different joy from cultivation. She was a newly wedded wife after all, and found it difficult to speak about this matter.
He did not continue to tease her. He stood up and instructed the maid to prepare something to soak in. Then, he carried Nangong Yao and soaked her in the wide wooden bucket.
Late at night, Shen Ping sat cross-legged in the air under the night sky deep in Mount Ba. Large amounts of flames surrounded his body, like a phoenix that had been reborn from flames. The aura of flames continued to rise, and in a short period of time, he rose from the Rank 1 Awakening Realm to the Star Realm. Then, he reached the Star Palace Realm. After opening the first fireelement palace, the missing complete star map was finally complete.
He looked at the scroll. On it clearly marked the location of the Black Abyss. Runes appeared on the surface of each palace. These runes formed a way to activate the Black Abyss.
