CHAPTER 2075: CHAPTER 2073: ALREADY ENTERED MY HEART

Within the secret realm of the Enlightenment Tablet, Bai Zepei was drenched in sweat, much like a drowning victim who just emerged from the water. The amount of sweat he produced highlighted his physical torment. If this continued, he might pass out from dehydration due to excessive sweating.

"Since you like her, why can’t you?"

"Why? Are you a coward?"

"Go for it, don’t let yourself regret it!"

Countless voices still echoed in his mind, continuously tormenting his willpower, relentlessly enticing him to delve into the abyss of desire.

This was an obsession magnified countless times. Even a trace of obsession could linger in one’s memory for a lifetime, let alone one amplified infinitely? It was exceedingly difficult for Bai Zepei to withstand it!

Suddenly, he heard a voice, "Zepei, I’m hungry."

His body shivered, and his mind instantly cleared significantly.

Indeed, he had already grown accustomed to his foodie little wife beside him, always declaring hunger, or pulling him around to find food. Over time, he found it to be a kind of life’s pleasure.

Moreover, although she was thin-skinned and easily embarrassed, she always acted flirtatiously towards him, which often amused and delighted him greatly.

Yes, being with her was quite entertaining.

A faint smile appeared on Bai Zepei’s pale face as the countless voices of curses, regrets, and complaints grew quieter and eventually faded from his mind.

At this moment, he finally understood that Si Yihuan had entered his heart. Even the magnified obsession could be suppressed by just a single word from her. He didn’t realize her importance in his heart until now, which was utterly foolish.

Bai Zepei’s smile broadened, but it was okay. He had a lifetime to verify this discovery and a lifetime to play the flirting game with his little wife. He had no regrets anymore.

As for Ruozhu, regardless of who she was, she was his most beloved sister—his biological sister.

A flood of light surged into his brain, where strange symbols continually emerged, along with spots of light connected by various lines.

He didn’t have time to think much about what they were, only striving to commit these images firmly to memory.

By this time, it was already night outside. Some people hadn’t left, while others had gone home for dinner and returned out of boredom to watch.

Lanterns illuminated the perimeter of the altar, adding to the especially bright moon, vividly lighting up the Main Gate of the Enlightenment Tablet.

Just then, the originally flickering yellow light suddenly went out, and Elder Su’s face turned ashen as he wobbled, almost collapsing.

Jiao Ling exclaimed and fainted.

The other members of the Bai Family were not as informed as the Jiuli Clan members. Jiao Ling hadn’t explained much earlier out of concern they would worry, and in this moment of bewilderment, they panicked when they heard the crowd’s discussions.

But this moment was brief, as the Main Gate suddenly blossomed with dazzling light, the colors shifting to green, then blue, followed by red, and finally, the red faintly tinged with purple, causing the onlookers to practically explode.

"Oh my, it’s blue, it’s blue! Six years ago, the Bamboo Sea in the Enlightenment realm was only green, but he’s..."

"Red! My god, how can Bai Zepei possess such extraordinary talent?"

"Do you all see a hint of purple light? Am I seeing things?"

"Yes, yes, the Jiuli Clan has a promising future!" An elderly person cried out in joy.

Bai Yihong and Lin Ping’er stood dumbfounded, wondering what this meant. Was it saying their Er Lang was okay and performed superbly?

The couple turned their shock into joy, with Lin Ping’er weeping tears of joy, laughing amidst her tears.

Fen Jiu hurriedly shook the unconscious Jiao Ling awake, continuously saying, "Zepei is alright. He was just transitioning, now it’s red light, turning purple!"

Jiao Ling gradually woke up, tears streaming down her face. Upon comprehending Fen Jiu’s words, she laughed again, wiped her tears fiercely, and said, "This rascal just knows how to scare people; he’s really going to drive his aunt crazy."

Nearby, Si Yihuan remained indifferent, as if nothing could affect her. She stood with her hands clasped over her heart, eyes fixed intently on the Main Gate, her gaze firm and intense.

She knew her husband would be fine; she believed no one in this world could match his prowess.

The rumbling sound of the opening gate echoed as the heavy Stone Gate slowly opened. A figure emerged, clothes still damp with sweat, hair slightly disheveled, yet no one saw him as disheveled at this moment. On the contrary, he seemed enveloped by a newfound aura, as if bathed in radiance.

Several Jiuli girls took deep breaths; my god, Bai Zepei looked even more handsome!

The women of this era might not know what ’handsome’ meant, but they thought Bai Zepei was stunningly handsome, elegant, resembling an Immortal descended from the heavens above.

Such an outstanding man would undoubtedly become the Jiuli Clan’s most prestigious individual. What honor it would be for someone to become his wife?

As for his ordinary wife, whether she could pass the clan’s examination remained to be seen.

"Husband!" Si Yihuan suddenly dashed out with such speed it shocked Lin Ping’er and the others. Who would have thought this gentle girl could run so fast?

Danliang aristocratic women had strict rules, one of which forbade running in public. Even if in a hurry, they could only walk briskly, not run like this, highlighting how Si Yihuan disregarded everything at that moment.

Bai Zepei greeted her with a smile, pulling his little wife into his embrace.

"I’m fine, don’t worry."

Held tightly by him, Si Yihuan’s heart raced wildly, as if it would leap out of her chest.

Bai Yihong and Lin Ping’er exchanged knowing smiles, relieved that Er Lang was safe, allowing the young couple to have their moment. They wouldn’t intrude on the joyous occasion.

"How’s my little sister?" Bai Zepei frowned slightly, sensing the intense stares around them as he released Si Yihuan to inquire.

"She hasn’t come out yet; they say she’s reached the heart of the trial. They all say Ruozhu is very fortunate," answered Si Yihuan.

Bai Zepei nodded, "With my sister’s abilities, she’ll be fine. Let’s go reassure dad and mom."

With that, he took Si Yihuan’s hand and strode towards Bai Yihong and the others, unconcerned by the watchful eyes. Holding his wife’s hand was his rightful privilege.

Several women nearby were preparing to offer congratulations, but seeing them embrace and not let go shattered their glass hearts...

On the stands, the Second Elder’s face turned a shade paler, while the Fourth Elder beside him could hear the grating of his teeth. Silently, the Fourth Elder edged away, sensing that the Second Elder was verging on a meltdown.
