Xiao XiRan's proclamation to marry Marlene made everyone dumbfounded. Except from Mo Yao Wang; whose face instantly turned black as a pot.
Mo Yao Wang looked at Xiao XiRan with indifferent gaze; trying to stop himself to strangle his playful grandson. After all, he brought a big destruction due to his selfishness.
It's not that Mo Yao Wang doesn't want Marlene to be Xiao XiRan's wife, but she was previously a witch queen; who made a lot of sacrifices to prevent his grandson from getting killed.
Moreover, even though Marlene is no longer the queen, it cannot hide the fact that she has a royal blood; a lower ranking creature which is only allowed to marry a human.
Since Xiao XiRan has a blood of a Xuè mó; the highest ranking creature in demon realm, the witches are considered as their slave a thousand years ago.
Yes, slave. Witches had used to serve demons and become their blood bank before the war between creatures happened. But they were freed from being slave after an unanticipated separation of all beings.
There were a lot of demons who went against the new law. But unfortunately, they can only follow, unless they wanted their kind to be annihilated.
With the past conflicts between demons and witches, the prohibition of mixed blood is one of the reasons why he cannot marry a witch.
Accompanied by the fact that Xiao XiRan is a Hùnxie, he also kidnapped Marlene who was a queen three years ago where it created a chaos at Medieval land.
"You idiot! Are you crazy?!" Marlene seethed in anger after she had come back to her senses which made everyone recovered from shocked.
When Marlene heard Xiao XiRan's proclamation about getting married, her heart skipped a beat. It began jumping like a rabbit while she recalled his words at the forbidden forest.
Asking her to marry him once he survives from trying to save his dying baby sister, Marlene of course would definitely love to marry Xiao XiRan.
Unfortunately, she can't. Knowing the consequences of breaking the prohibition of living, Marlene's heart felt like being twisted by a terrible cyclone.
Marlene gritted her teeth while she tried to suppress both excitement and sadness to their unfortunate situation and seethed in anger. "Who said that I wanted to marry you?!"
Xiao XiRan: "…"
Xiao XiRan's face instantly turned dark. He slightly looked down at Marlene who has a gloomy face. But he gently tightened his arms around her waist, pulling her closer to him.
He had forgotten his sudden fear of YuYan's warning. Xiao XiRan coldly asked. "You don't want to marry me? Do you want me to chain you again?"
His voice sounded with a threat while his eyes show a dangerous glare. How can he not? Xiao XiRan's possessiveness and fear to lose Marlene immediately spread through his veins.
Marlene: "…" This stupid man!
Marlene's gloomy face turned black. Her fear towards Xiao XiRan disappeared while thinking about the risk of what he wanted to happen. "Did you forget about the prohibition of living?!"
"I don't care, as long as you will officially be my wife." Xiao XiRan said sarcastically. But a heavy knock from Marlene's fist fall on his head right after he finished his words.
Xiao XiRan: "…" Isn't she afraid of me?
"Stupid! Do you want to create another war?!" Marlene retaliated with annoyance on her voice. She wanted to strangle Xiao XiRan for not thinking straight.
Xiao XiRan: "…" War? Why would there be a war?
Xiao XiRan's eyebrows wrinkled. He has no idea why would there be a war just because of marrying a witch queen even though he has a Xuè mó's blood.
"Aren't you thinking straight?! You're the most stupid person I ever met!" Marlene said sarcastically. She felt having a headache knowing that Xiao XiRan doesn't care at all.
While thinking about the previous conflicts between demons and witches, Marlene sighed and said. "It is not as simple as you think, there are things that you need to consider."
