Chapter 896 My love for Ling'er will last until death!
Finally, on a starry night, they sat side by side under an ancient spiritual tree.
The spiritual flowers around are blooming with charming fragrance, and the rich aroma permeates all around, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Chang Sun Ling leaned quietly on Bai Yongchang's shoulder, feeling his warmth and breath.
Bai Yongchang gently stroked Chang Sun Ling's hair.
Neither of them spoke, but their minds understood each other at this moment.
Bai Yongchang tilted his head slightly and gazed at Chang Sun Ling affectionately: "Ling'er, do you know that from the first time I saw you, my heart can no longer be calm."
"From that moment on, I knew that you were the one I wanted to be with for the rest of my life. I am willing to be with you hand in hand and never leave you."
Chang Sun Ling's cheeks flushed as she responded, "Yongchang, I am also willing to live and die with you and spend the rest of my life with you."
Just like that, they made a solemn vow to stay together for life in this dreamlike forest.
However, good times are always as short-lived as morning dew.
Their love affair ultimately failed to escape the eyes and ears of the public and was keenly noticed by Changsun Yinshi's family.
When the elders of Changsun Yinshi's family learned about this, they were furious.
They believed that Chang Sun Ling and Elder Bai's romance seriously violated the family rules.
Therefore, they strictly ordered Chang Sun Ling to sever her relationship with Elder Bai immediately, otherwise she would be severely punished according to family rules.
The family rules of Changsun Yinshi's family are very strict, and it is strictly forbidden for family members to fall in love with people who are not from the Yinshi family.
This regulation aims to maintain the purity of the family and the purity of the bloodline, and to prevent family members from having too many entanglements and connections with the outside world.
However, Chang Sun Ling committed a big mistake on this issue.
She has been engaged to the Ximen Yinshi family since she was young. This marriage was carefully arranged by the family elders to consolidate the relationship between the Changsun family and the Ximen family.
But Chang Sun Ling had no interest in this marriage. The person in her heart was Elder Bai.
This made the elders of Changsun Yinshi's family even more unable to tolerate her relationship with Elder Bai.
Inside the family's meeting hall, the atmosphere was so solemn that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.
The elders sat around a huge round table, and everyone's face was extremely serious.
Their eyes were as sharp as torches, staring intently at Chang Sun Ling.
Among them, the white-haired patriarch of the Changsun Yinshi family was furious, his eyes were wide open and his face was full of anger.
He slammed the table so hard that the teacup on the table began to tremble and some tea spilled out.
He shouted sternly, "Ling'er, you are so bold! How dare you violate the family rules and secretly get married to Bai Yongchang! Do you know how much trouble and impact this will bring to the family?"
"You must sever ties with him immediately, otherwise, don't blame the family rules for being ruthless!"
Chang Sun Ling was so frightened by the old patriarch's scolding that her whole body trembled.
Her pretty face turned pale in an instant, her body trembling slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes, ready to burst out.
But she tried hard not to let her tears fall and fell to her knees.
She pleaded with a trembling voice: "Grandpa, father, mother, elders, please help me and Yongchang. We love each other sincerely, and it's not just a momentary impulse. I know I violated the family rules, but I really can't give up my feelings for him."
However, in the face of Chang Sun Ling's pleading, the elders of the Ximen family remained indifferent.
Chang Sun Ling knew very well that the family rules could not be violated, and she felt extremely distressed.
She tried to argue with the family elders and tell them the true feelings between herself and Elder Bai, but in the face of family interests, all her words seemed pale and powerless.
When Bai Yongchang learned about this, he was extremely anxious.
He couldn't bear to watch his beloved suffer so much pain and suffering.
He was determined to give this relationship one last fight, even if it meant giving up all his pride and self-esteem.
He knew that this might be his only chance and his last hope.
So, Bai Yongchang began to carefully prepare a generous gift.
This gift not only represents his deep affection for Ling'er, but also is his way of expressing his sincerity to Changsun Yinshi's family.
After several days of hard work, he finally got everything ready.
On a sunny day, Bai Yongchang, dressed in a gorgeous white gown and holding a carefully prepared gift in his hand, set out on the road to the Ximen family.
Along the way, he was nervous, but his steps were extremely firm.
When he arrived in front of the residence of the Changsun Yinshi family, he took a deep breath and walked into the reception room with steady steps.
There, the elders of Changsun Yinshi's family sat upright, looking at him expressionlessly.
Bai Yongchang walked to the center of the living room, feeling a little nervous.
But he still took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then respectfully bowed to the elders of the Ximen family and said, "Dear elders, I am Bai Yongchang, a junior, and I have come to see you today."
His voice was low and powerful, revealing a firmness and sincerity.
Then he continued: "My feelings for Ling'er are known to all, and my love for her comes from the bottom of my heart. In order to be with her, I am willing to accept any conditions of the Ximen family."
"Even if I have to give up my own cultivation path and marry into the Ximen family, I will do it. I only ask that you can help us and let Ling'er and I stay together forever."
After saying this, Bai Yongchang bowed slightly, waiting for the response from the elders of the Ximen family.
However, the elders of Changsun Yinshi's family scoffed at this.
One of the elders with a stern face snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Humph, do you think you can impress us with such words? You are just coveting the cultivation resources of the Changsun family."
The elder's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Bai Yongchang's heart.
He couldn't help but blush and wanted to explain, but was interrupted by the elder.
"What's more, Ling'er already has an engagement with the Ximen Yinshi family. This marriage is absolutely impossible!" The elder's voice was cold and resolute, leaving no room for negotiation.
Another elder also spoke up: "Bai Yongchang, you should know the rules of our Changsun Yinshi family. We will never marry anyone outside the Yinshi family, and we will definitely not let Ling'er marry someone without background and strength."
Bai Yongchang's heart tightened, but he did not give up.
He continued, "Everyone, I know that my current conditions may not be comparable to your Changsun Yinshi Family, but I believe that as long as you give me time, I will be able to prove my ability."
Another elder sneered: "Time? We don't have that much time to wait for you. Besides, even if you become powerful in the future, how can you guarantee that your feelings for Ling'er will not change?"
Bai Yongchang said hurriedly: "Everyone, please believe me, my feelings for Ling'er will last until death. No matter what happens, I will not change my feelings for her."
