All the preparations that had been made for her to ascend the throne were now carried out with the grandeur of a wedding. After a discussion initiated by Yan Ye, the two teachers, and the four Venerables, the City Lord of Zhongzhou City actually revoked Beiting Huang's qualification to become empress and formally confirmed Nan Ling as the acting City Lord.
Beiting Huang was stunned when she heard the news and complied with becoming the bride, "Hmm, it's better to be the empress. I don't have to worry about anything, and I still have actual power."
Thinking this, Beiting Huang contentedly went about her days as the bride-to-be, trying on wedding gowns and watching her brother pine after Xu Xiaomo, too scared to confess his feelings. Occasionally, she would practice her cultivation and refine the Life Light.
She was well aware that there would be a price to pay for Yan Ye's marriage proposal lie in the end.
