“Alright, since you accept the punishment, then I will…”
“Wait, I’ll decide David’s punishment!” said the Earth Fire Ancestor!
Huo Fentian was stunned, not expecting the Ancestor to speak personally.
He bowed respectfully: “Ancestor, please tell me, how should David be punished?”
The Earth Fire Ancestor’s fiery body rippled slightly, his golden flame-like eyes scanning back and forth between David and Huo Ling’er, finally revealing a meaningful smile:
“Since Ling’er says David is her man, then let the two of them marry immediately and become Daoist partners. In this way, David will no longer be an outsider, but the son-in-law of my Earth Fire Pavilion. The crime of trespassing into the forbidden area will naturally be waived.”
“What?!”
“Marry?!”
“Immediately?!”
A series of exclamations rang out in the cave.
Huo Fentian was dumbfounded.
The elders exchanged bewildered glances.
Huo Ling’er’s pretty face instantly flushed crimson, like a ripe apple, so embarrassed she almost fainted.
David was also stunned; he never expected the punishment from the Earth Fire Ancestor to be this.
“Ancestor… this…”
Huo Fentian opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
“What? My words no longer carry weight?”
The Earth Fire Ancestor’s voice deepened, and the temperature of the entire cave suddenly rose, the lava pool even boiling.
Huo Fentian hurriedly bowed: “This disciple dares not! But… how can a marriage be so hasty? Moreover, Ling’er is the princess of the Earth Fire Pavilion; the wedding should be grand, inviting guests from all sides…”
“Why bother with formalities?”
The Earth Fire Ancestor interrupted him, “With the Evil Path Palace army pressing in, where is there time for a grand wedding? Marry immediately and settle this matter. We can hold a celebration later after defeating the Evil Path Palace.”
He looked at David: “Little fellow, are you willing?”
David’s mind raced.
The Earth Fire Ancestor’s move, seemingly absurd, was actually brilliant.
Firstly, it would clear David’s name of trespassing into the forbidden area, making him a son-in-law and thus not an outsider.
Secondly, it would completely bind David to the Earth Fire Pavilion’s cause. With this relationship, David would have to wholeh

Thirdly, David possessed the Golden Dragon bloodline and extraordinary talent; becoming the Earth Fire Pavilion’s son-in-law would greatly benefit the pavilion’s future development and could even help him reshape his physical body.
As for himself…
David looked at Huo Ling’er.
Huo Ling’er was looking down, her fingers nervously twisting the hem of her clothes, her pretty face flushed crimson.
Although she was shy, there was no resistance in her eyes; instead, there was a hint of expectation.
To be fair, Huo Ling’er was stunningly beautiful, of noble birth, kind and brave, and deeply devoted to him.
To become her Daoist partner would be an absolute blessing.
However… David had other women in his heart, and too many unfinished business.
But then he thought again. He and Huo Ling’er already had feelings for each other, and Huo Ling’er had just publicly declared him her man, binding her reputation to his own.
If he refused now, it would not only hurt Huo Ling’er’s feelings but also cause her to lose face in the Earth Fire Pavilion.
More importantly, he still needed the power of the Earth Fire Pavilion to fight against the Evil Path Hall, and he needed the Earth Fire Ancestor to point out the location of the Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk… “
I do,” David took a deep breath and said slowly.
His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone’s ears.
Huo Ling’er’s body trembled, and she suddenly raised her head, her eyes flashing with surprise and disbelief.
“However,”
David continued, “although Ling’er and I are in love, marriage is a major event that requires Ling’er’s consent. If she is not willing, I will not force her.”
All eyes turned to Huo Ling’er.
Huo Ling’er bit her lip, looked at David, and her eyes glistened with tears.
She took a deep breath and mustered her courage: “I…I do.”
Her voice was as soft as a mosquito’s buzz, but in the silent cave, it was as clear as thunder.
The Earth Fire Ancestor laughed loudly: “Good! Since that’s the case, then let’s get married immediately! Fen Tian, you will preside over the ceremony!”
Huo Fen Tian smiled bitterly, but he dared not disobey the ancestor’s order.
He glanced at his daughter, then at David, and finally sighed, “Very well, since the Ancestor has given the order, and you two are mutually in love, then… let’s get married.”
He turned to an elder and said, “Pass down the order, everyone in the Earthfire Pavilion, prepare for the princess and David’s wedding immediately. It doesn’t need to be too grand, but the proper rites must be observed.”
“Yes!” The elder accepted the order and left.
The Earthfire Ancestor nodded in satisfaction, “Very good. After the wedding, David will go into seclusion in the forbidden area to help me restore my physical body. Once I have reconstructed my physical body, I will personally hold a celebration for you.”
He looked at David, a deep meaning flashing in his eyes, “Little fellow, treat Ling’er well. She is someone I watched grow up; if I dare to betray her… hmph.”
David solemnly clasped his hands, “Ancestor, rest assured, David will not betray Ling’er.”
“Good! Everyone disperse, prepare for the wedding.”
The Earthfire Ancestor’s fiery body slowly dissipated, merging back into the lava pool.
Everyone left the forbidden area.
Huo Fentian looked at David and Huo Ling’er standing side by side, his feelings complicated.
He patted David on the shoulder: “Kid, treat my daughter well. If you dare bully her, I won’t forgive you.”
“Don’t worry, Father-in-law,” David quickly changed his tune.
Huo Fentian’s lips twitched, but he finally sighed and turned to leave.
Soon, only David, Huo Ling’er, and the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord remained in the cave.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
The Crimson Cloud Demon Lord tactfully stepped aside, saying, “I’ll go for a walk outside. You two chat.”
After he left, Huo Ling’er blushed and looked at David, whispering, “David… I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to say that. I just wanted to save you…”
“I know,”
David said gently. “I should thank you. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have survived this ordeal.”
“But… but…”
Huo Ling’er bit her lip, “Now that the Ancestor wants us to marry, are you… are you really willing? If you’re not willing, I can talk to the Ancestor…”
“I am willing,”
David interrupted her, taking her hand. “Ling’er, you’re a good girl. It’s my blessing to become your Daoist partner.”
He paused, then said sincerely, “It’s just… I carry too many burdens, and there are other women on my shoulders. There may be many dangers in the future. Following me, you might suffer.”
