Against The Sky Supreme

Tan Feng remained silent for a long time after hearing this.

He still did not turn around.

Yuyan's expression grew heavy as she continued, "I know my actions were unforgivable, but I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me."

The air was thick with tension, and the weight of her words hung heavily between them.

Finally, after a long silence, Zhang Sun Xuan Qi slowly spoke, "It's in the past. There’s no need to dwell on it."

Yuyan felt a mix of relief and regret. She had hoped for a different response, one that might hint at a chance for reconciliation.

But the distance between them felt insurmountable, as if the very fabric of their connection had been torn apart by the events of the past.

“I will prove myself to you,” Yuyan declared, determination burning in her eyes.

“I will show you that I have changed.”

Zhang Sun Xuan Qi took a deep breath, the pain of past betrayals still fresh in his mind.

“Actions speak louder than words,” he replied, his tone firm yet somewhat softened by understanding.

“I’ll be watching.”

With that, he finally turned his back to her, walking away with a resolute stride.

Yuyan stood there, her heart aching, yet a flicker of hope began to kindle within her.

She knew that the road to forgiveness would be long and arduous, but she was determined to walk it, no matter the cost.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Sun Xuan Qi still did not turn around. She remained silent for a long time before finally saying, “I accept your apology.”

After saying this, Zhang Sun Xuan Qi and Bai Xi Supreme vanished from everyone's sight.

At this moment, Yuyan felt quite unsettled. In her view, since she had killed Zhang Sun Xuan Qi, the latter would surely not forgive her so easily. However, she never expected that the other party would accept her apology just like that.

Watching Zhang Sun Xuan Qi's disappearing figure, Tan Yun sighed deeply, lost in thought.

At this moment, no one disturbed Tan Yun.

They understood that from Tan Yun’s perspective, to be frank, he felt guilty towards Zhang Sun Xuan Qi, guilty towards this woman who had loved him for countless years.

Thus, the other women did not interrupt Tan Yun.

Time passed second by second. Tan Yun was in a daze for a full hour, until night fell, before he finally withdrew his gaze from the distance.

After that, Tan Yun and the other women stepped on the accumulated snow and walked into the Supreme Military City, arriving at the Council Hall.

Following the extermination of the Heavenly Demon Army, the surviving nine billion troops stood neatly outside the Supreme Military City.

Inside the hall, Xuan Yuan Rou looked at Xiao Yutian, her gaze somewhat cold. “Father, Little Shadow said that you did not want to kill him for his cultivation technique the night before my wedding to Tan Yun. What is going on?”

“If there is no reasonable explanation, I may acknowledge you as my father, but I will not forgive you.”

Before Xiao Yutian could speak, Bai Xi Supreme stepped forward, taking Xuan Yuan Rou's hand and telling her the background of what Old Master Tan had disclosed.

Upon hearing this, Tan Yun finally understood that after learning he was an ominous person, Xiao Yutian wanted to use the pretext of wanting to seize his cultivation technique and kill him to make him leave Xuan Yuan Rou, and did not truly intend to kill him.

The reason why he successfully escaped the night before the wedding was that Xiao Yutian deliberately did not kill him.

Tan Yun took a moment to think, standing in Xiao Yutian's shoes. If he were to learn that his daughter was to marry a man who was ominous, he might not act better than Xiao Yutian.

When the misunderstanding was resolved, Xuan Yuan Rou knelt in front of Xiao Yutian, bowing her head and saying, “Daughter pays her respects to Father.”

“Good daughter, get up quickly.” A heartfelt smile appeared on Xiao Yutian's face, which was marked by the passage of time.

After that, Tan Yun found someone to prepare wine, and he drank with Xiao Yutian…
