I'm a princess, so what if I have three husbands?

Chapter 223 Even if you're alone, you should take good care of yourself.

As she walked out, Zhongli Yueluo looked at her hands again, thinking it was time.

After Zhongli Yueluo left, Yan Ruoyu felt a surge of bloody sweetness and spat out a mouthful of black blood.

For a fleeting moment, he even suspected that Zhongli Yueluo had poisoned him; it seems he was still too suspicious.

He struggled to his feet from the throne, walked out, and then returned to his bedchamber with Zhongli Yueluo.

At this moment, Zhongli Yueluo had changed her clothes and was lying on the bed, completely calm.

Seeing him come in from outside, she simply moved a little further in on the bed; they really are an old married couple.

She just felt that Yan Ruoyu looked at her differently today; he was so youthful.

It felt like we had truly returned to the time when we first met many years ago.

"Ruoyu." She hadn't called him that in a long time.

We're all getting on in years, it's not appropriate to call each other so intimately these days.

Yan Ruoyu didn't say a word, took off her shoes and lay down on the bed.

He reached out and gently pulled Zhongli Yueluo into his arms.

"Am I going to die soon?" His blunt question left Zhongli Yuelu at a loss for words.

"What are you saying? How could you not live long? You are the number one demon lord in the world."

Zhongli Yueluo nestled in his arms, her hand gently resting on his chest, her eyes fixed on her own hand.

Meanwhile, Yan Ruoyu was pondering what measures Zhongli Yueluo would take if he were to die soon.

If this dream were to unfold according to her personality, she might be willing to pay with her life for it.

He was anticipating Zhongli Yueluo's prediction, but Zhongli Yueluo in his arms didn't say a word.

"Yue Luo?"

Zhongli Yueluo bit her lip, trying to suppress her emotions.

Then, her body twitched slightly, and you could feel her crying.

She didn't want to either. She's already so old, and it's not right for her to be crying in his arms.

"Why are you asking these questions out of the blue? Go to sleep. Oh, and come with me to Jinshan to see the stars tomorrow night."

Yan Ruoyu didn't know why Zhongli Yueluo wanted to see the stars for no reason, or if it was something he had promised her before.

According to astronomical observations, seven stars will be visible in the sky tomorrow.

With her special blood sacrifice, his physical condition could be regressed by at least five thousand years.

Of course she will die, but it doesn't matter, the world won't miss her.

However, without Yan Ruoyu, the four tribes that had been finally pacified would probably fall into chaos again.

Thinking of this, she wrapped her arms around his neck, gently rested her head on his neck, and kissed his cheek.

Although he was physically old, his heart was young, and he was still very moved when she kissed him.

Or perhaps his feelings for her had never changed over the years; he looked at her with deep affection in his eyes.

He gently kissed her forehead: "Go to sleep early, I'll go see the stars with you tomorrow."

She bit her lip, pulled him close, hugged him tightly, and closed her eyes. She really couldn't bear to part with him.

As the night passed, dawn broke, and Zhongli Yueluo got up early, wearing a blue dress.

Just like when they first met, with a little makeup, you couldn't tell their age at all.

But her gray hair could never be turned back. Yan Ruoyu sat up in bed and saw her like this.

He thought he was seeing things, as if he saw her as a young woman who had just come of age, smiling at him with her dimples showing.

"Get up, we have to leave after we finish eating, it's still quite a distance."

She twirled in front of him in her dress, looking charming and lovely. Then he looked at himself and saw his wrinkled hands.

He suppressed the urge to hug her.

He slowly sat up from the bed and tidied his clothes.

Then he went over and adjusted Zhongli Yueluo's belt, and swept her hair back.

He remains as gentle as ever after all these years, seemingly unchanged for a century.

"Ruoyu, what do you think would happen if we broke up? It seems like we've been together for so many years and have never been apart."

Hearing her say that, Yan Ruoyu, being a very intelligent person, felt as if she was giving him a heads-up.

He gently patted her shoulder and lightly touched her forehead with his fingers.

"I really don't know what's going on in your head."

Answer me.

Are you going on a long trip?

Zhongli Yueluo smiled and shook her head. This time it wasn't a long trip, but a permanent departure.

But she couldn't bring herself to say goodbye to his face, even though they had been together for so many years. Saying goodbye was just too difficult.

"I was just kidding. I'm not going anywhere far. I'll always be with you."

She held his hand, her heart pounding with sweat and a guilty conscience.

He wanted to see what she was up to, so after quickly packing his luggage, he and she got into a car and headed out.

In the past, one could travel in the blink of an eye without needing to take any transportation, but that's no longer possible.

The car seemed to be moving very slowly, as if it would never reach its destination. Zhongli Yueluo leaned on his shoulder.

He looked at her; her eyes were red. Slowly, the sky darkened, and a warm breeze blew in.

Amidst the scent of herbs, Zhongli Yuelu snuggled closer to him.

"Ruoyu, you are so beautiful."

"Your youthful beauty has faded, you said it yourself."

"Oh, I was just kidding." She wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, hiding her tears.

We arrived at our destination, and it was getting dark. The stars twinkled in the sky, and a thin layer of grass grew all around us.

Zhongli Yueluo sat casually on the ground, her hands resting on her knees, looking at the sky.

She was just waiting for those seven stars to align, at which point he would transform back into a handsome and refined young lord.

"After the world was at peace, it seems like we haven't had such a peaceful trip abroad for many years."

Zhongli Yueluo turned to look at him, and Yan Ruoyu was looking at her with a questioning look.

"Yes, yes, I should spend more time with you."

"We've always been there for each other."

Zhongli Yueluo turned her head away, no longer looking at him, and only watched as the stars slowly moved together, one by one.

Suddenly, shooting stars streaked across the sky, one or two, then a whole swarm, their elongated light flickering in his eyes.

She even reached out to touch the stars, but they lost their luster in an instant.

Yan Ruoyu draped a thin cloak over her shoulders, then put his arm around her, and she leaned against his shoulder.

"Ruoyu, from now on, you must also... take good care of yourself."

She reached out and grasped his other hand, their fingers intertwined, and the seven stars in the sky gradually formed a line.

He looked back at Zhongli Yueluo in his arms; her white hair was gradually turning black.

Even with slightly wrinkled skin, she looks like she's 1,800 years old.

Then her figure lit up with light, and beams of light shot down from the stars in the sky, enveloping Zhongli Yueluo.

He grasped her hand, and she slowly released it, her face becoming blurry: "Ruoyu, I don't want you to die."

"Yue Luo!"

"The Four Seas Demon Clan needs you, but not me, so this is the best choice."

Yan Ruoyu, however, held her hand tightly.

He has already experienced separation once, and this time he will not let himself be slaughtered!
