Ximen Yanyan shouted in shocking, “Daddy...”

Yang Dingtian also hurriedly said, “Uncle, didn’t we agree before not to do this? Don’t force Yanyan to marry me.”

Ximen Wuya ignored their words. He stared at Yang Dingtian and slowly repeated, “Yang Dingtian, I betroth Ximen Yanyan to you as your wife. Will you love her forever, protect her forever, and take care of her forever?”

He stared at Yang Dingtian, his gaze filled with his numerous thoughts. At the same time, there was actually only one main thought.

Yang Dingtian said sadly, “You will be alright. You don’t have to do this.”

“Answer me, Yang Dingtian,” Ximen Wuya instructed word-by-word.

“Yes, Uncle.” Yang Dingtian affirmed. “I will take care of Yanyan forever. I will protect her forever.”

Ximen Wuya’s gaze turned back to his daughter. Then, he said word-by-word, “Ximen Yanyan, I betroth you to Yang Dingtian. Are you willing to love him forever, treat him as your heaven and earth, and manage his home for him?”

“Daddy...,” Ximen Yanyan cried.”Why do you have to be like this? Why do you have to be like this?”

“Ximen Yanyan, could it be that you want to disobey your father’s order just like Dongfang Bingling?” Ximen Wuya asked fiercely.

“I....I don’t dare,” Ximen Yanyan stuttered.

Ximen Wuya then asked, “Then, tell me right now. Are you willing to marry Yang Dingtian? Are you willing to love him forever, treat him as your heaven and earth, give birth to his children, and manage his home for him?”

Ximen Yanyan cried and fell to the floor. She said sobbingly, “I will! I will! I will do anything as long as you recover. Don’t scare me. Don’t scare me.”

Ximen Wuya’s face turned serious. “Alright, then you both will get married today. We’ll hold the ceremony here.”

“Uncle!” Yang Dingtian rushed to say. “Let’s talk about it after we reach Cloud Sky City...”

“Do it right here,” Ximen Wuya said with determination. “Are you both going to disobey me?”

“We don’t dare!” Yang Dingtian and Ximen Yanyan both lowered their heads.

“Good. Then, both of you stand up,” Ximen Wuya ordered.

Yang Dingtian and Ximen Yanyan stood up.

“Face east and bow to heaven and earth!” Ximen Wuya ordered.

The two of them kneeled facing east and bowed.

“Dingtian, where are your parents?” Ximen Wuya asked.

“They are not in this world,” Yang Dingtian replied.

“Then, let me take their place!” Ximen Wuya said. “Kneel facing me. Bow a second time towards your parents!”

Yang Dingtian and Ximen Yanyan both kneeled facing Ximen Wuya and bowed!

“Husband and wife, bow to each other!”

They both kneeled facing each other. They bowed before slowly standing up. Yang Dingtian was a little embarrassed when he saw Ximen Yanyan’s eyes brimming with tears.

“Both of you, come over.” Ximen Wuya waved at them.

Yang Dingtian and Ximen Yanyan both walk forward. Ximen Wuya grabbed both of their hands, looked at Yanyan with a warm and loving face, saying: “Good daughter, your cultivation is a lot lower than Dongfang Bingling’s. Your popularity is also lacking when compared to hers. But, you have always been daddy’s precious gem. You are my baby girl. No matter how strong or weak you are, I am proud of you. Since you were a child, daddy couldn’t bear to scold you, couldn’t bear to let you suffer. Whenever I thought about your getting married when you grew up, I got both excited and upset.”

“I never thought that this day would come so fast. I haven’t pampered you enough, and you are already getting married. I really am reluctant.” Ximen Wuya sighed, staring at his own daughter.

Then, Ximen Wuya used an unprecedented gentle tone to say, “From today onwards, my daughter will have another man to love her. Don’t worry, daddy chose the best husband for you. He will protect you just like I did and will be reluctant to let you suffer even the slightest.”

“Yang Dingtian, am I correct?” Ximen Wuya looked at Yang Dingtian and asked.

“Yes, yes. I will definitely do that.” Yang Dingtian forcefully held in his tears and nodded.

Ximen Wuya grabbed Yang Dingtian’s hand tightly. “Son, I won’t be able to protect you in the future. You need to rely on yourself and remember what you’ve promised. I have passed my baby daughter, Cloud Sky City and even my dreams to you.”

At this moment, Ximen Wuya’s gaze was like a flickering flame, getting smaller and smaller, dimmer and dimmer.

“Ah...” Then, Ximen Wuya spat out a mouthful of black blood that flew several dozen meters away. A bunch of black gas emerged from his blood, causing the flowers in the cabin to instantly dry out and die off.

“Uncle, what happened? You were completely fine when the fight ended!” Yang Dingtian exclaimed. “How do I save you? Please tell me.”

“It’s useless!” Ximen Wuya smiled at Yang Dingtian. “Zhu Qingzhu’s strike has almost completely extinguished my life. His Xuan Energy has some sort of property that is capable of swallowing everything: my veins, blood, Xuan energy, Sea of Energy....”

“I’ve already tried to overestimate the danger he posed, but I still never expected this. The Yin Yang Sect Great Elder’s attack did not hurt me much. Dongfang Bingling’s Yin Yang formation also did not take my life. However, Zhu Qingzhu’s soft strike destroyed my life force, and he hadn’t even used all of his energy.” Ximen Wuya’s breathing was getting weaker and weaker. “Son, remember to never fight Zhu Qingzhu in the future. His Xuan energy is the absolutely destructive type. Even if a little of his energy enters your body, it will spread and swallow your entire body, turning your Xuan Energy and blood into a dark energy. Very quickly, your entire body will be filled with this type of dark energy, which will eventually consume your life.”

“You can be saved. You can be saved. Just tell me how. Tell me how!” Yang Dingtian said.

“I can’t be saved. The dark energy has already spread to my Sea of Energy and heart. Most of my blood has already turned black. You know what happens after this dark energy reaches the Sea of Energy and the heart?”

Yang Dingtian shook his head.

“I will become a Blood Thirst monster, completely insane and only knowing how to kill. I will kill everyone on this ship,” Ximen Wuya said.

Instantly, Yang Dingtian and Ximen Yanyan were stunned.

“You won’t. Daddy, you definitely won’t do such thing,” Ximen Yanyan cried.

“This type of Xuan energy is called Soul Eater. I’ve only seen it in books but never thought that this evil technique would appear again in the world.” Ximen Wuya smiled and said, “I’ve used every possible means to control this Soul Eater energy but still failed. Look at my eyes. The surface of my black pupil is growing larger and larger. When it completely covers my eyes, I would have become a Blood Thirst monster!”

“You both don’t want me to be that kind of monster right?” Ximen Wuya smiled. “Remember to not tell anyone about the Soul Eater, or it would cause a disaster.”

“Time is up!” Ximen Wuya looked at Yang Dingtian. “Son, I believe that you will do well!”

“Protect Yanyan. Protect Cloud Sky City.....”

“Yang Dingtian, Uncle can no longer protect you. You need to depend on yourself in the future!”

After he finished talking, Ximen Wuya suddenly struck his heart with a powerful strike. He was so fast that he couldn’t be stopped.

“Daddy, don’t...”

“Uncle, don’t....”

Yang Dingtian and Ximen Yanyan yelled at the same time. Ximen Wuya then spat out his last mouth of blood, closed his eyes, and stopped breathing.

“Daddy, don’t leave me.....” Ximen Yanyan cried so hard that she suddenly fainted.

Yang Dingtian couldn’t hold his tears in any longer. They rushed down his face.

“Foster father...” Ximen Yan rushed in from outside. He knelt in front of Ximen Wuya and burst into tears.

Instantly, the people of Cloud Sky City rushed in and looked at Ximen Wuya disbelievingly. They were stunned as if they had been struck by lightning. In their hearts, Ximen Wuya was as strong as God, unbeatable and immortal. But now...

Everyone slowly knelt down, as if heaven and earth were disrupted. Maybe it felt like that to them because Ximen Wuya was the Lord of Cloud Sky City.

Ximen Yanyan slowly woke up. Looking at the crowd crying in the cabin, she yelled, “What are you all crying for? My dad isn’t dead yet. He is only deeply injured and is meditating to recover.”

“This time, he will meditate and rest for three years. In three years, my father will wake up,” Ximen Yanyan declared. “So remember, these three coming years will be the most dangerous period for Cloud Sky City. In order to survive, we must work together. What’s the point of crying here now? My father has protected you all for so many years. It’s time we relied on ourselves.”

“Go back to your own designated positions. Do what you are supposed to do. Remember, in the future, tell outsiders that my father is meditating. Anyone who spread what happened today will be stripped of his/her cultivation and be thrown out of our faction.”

Instantly, everyone stopped crying. Their faces even showed a glimmer of hope.

“Still not leaving?” Ximen Yanyan asked. “My father needs to meditate in a quiet environment. Remember to send Fifth Rank Recovery Pills every day. Burn them beside him. In this way, his recovery would progress faster.”

After she said this, everyone started believing that Ximen Wuya was really just meditating.

“Yes, Miss!” Then, everyone bowed and left.

Ximen Yan stayed back and waited until everyone else left. “Yanyan, you can lie to others but you can’t lie to me. Foster father has already passed on.”

Then, he stared at Yang Dingtian, full of hatred. “It’s because of you that foster father died. You are such an unlucky person.”
