On My Wedding Day, I Went to Kill My Junior Brother—Why Are You Crying When I'm the One Leaving? - Chapter 1:

Chapter 1: Rebirth on the Wedding Day

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the once lively wedding banquet came to an abrupt and dismal end.

Hun Yu, dressed in a bright red wedding robe, stood dazed as he looked into the distance, his face void of any joy.

He hadn’t expected it—he had actually been reborn, and it was on the very day of his wedding.

The events were exactly the same as in his past life. On the wedding day, Mu Qingwan, his bride, didn’t show up. He was left alone in his red robe, waiting the entire day in vain.

She didn’t come because their little Junior Brother had gone out in search of treasure and was supposedly injured by a demonic beast. She had gone to care for him.

Not only that, even the other Senior Sisters and his master didn’t come that day.

If the Junior Brother had truly been gravely injured, Hun Yu might’ve understood. But what he later discovered was that the Junior Brother hadn’t been hurt at all. He had faked the injuries, and everyone rushed to take care of him for one reason: to stop Hun Yu’s marriage with Mu Qingwan.

In his previous life, Hun Yu had been deeply in love with Mu Qingwan. Even though she didn’t show up on their wedding day, he still forgave her and even went into the mountains to gather herbs for the Junior Brother’s recovery.

Despite everything, he barely managed to marry Mu Qingwan. But the days that followed were tormenting and filled with pain.

After the marriage, he never shared a room with her. Mu Qingwan refused. For three years, he never even kissed her.

She moved out right after the wedding, saying she was going into seclusion for cultivation. But in reality, she stayed by the Junior Brother’s side, showering him with affection.

Hun Yu once thought he simply wasn’t good enough. So, he read and cultivated day and night, trying to become someone worthy of her.

Just because Mu Qingwan mentioned she needed a rare herb for her cultivation, he risked death to enter a 5th-tier demonic beast’s lair and brought back a Heavenly Star Blue Moon Grass.

Even when Hun Yu returned gravely injured, she didn’t show any concern. She didn’t even ask how he was doing. She happily took the herb and ran off with it. In the end, the herb he nearly died for ended up in the Junior Brother’s hands.

The Junior Brother even flaunted it in front of him, saying, “Sister Qingwan treats me best. Whatever I want, the Senior Sisters will give it to me without hesitation.”

Hun Yu lay bedridden for three months before his injuries finally began to heal. During that time, no one came to check on him. No one called a physician for him.

He endured the pain alone, cooked for himself, and struggled just to get out of bed. Only he knew how he made it through those days.

When he finally recovered, broken and disillusioned, he planned to confront Mu Qingwan. But then she said a few words of thanks, and he felt rejuvenated, as if hope had returned.

As time passed, not only did Mu Qingwan never repair their relationship, she grew even more infatuated with the Junior Brother and eventually had an illicit affair with him.

After that, Hun Yu became a shell of himself, even more despised by others. In the end, he was expelled from the sect and lived a miserable century.

His thoughts returned to the present. Hun Yu’s gaze was clear and cold.

Unlike his past self, he didn’t throw a fit at the banquet. Instead, he tore off his red wedding robe and walked away.

“Tsk tsk~ I knew it! How could Sister Qingwan ever marry that useless scholar?”

“Shh~ He’s the sect master’s personal disciple, you know. He may be a good-for-nothing who can’t cultivate, but he sure dreams big! He almost married Sister Qingwan!”

“What nonsense! He was picked up by the sect master when he was a kid. It’s been eighteen years, and he’s still barely cultivated anything. And he wants to be Senior Brother? Wants to marry Sister Qingwan? A toad lusting after a swan!”

On the high platform, several elders frowned and opened their mouths, wanting to offer some comforting words. But in the end, they said nothing.

Hun Yu turned and looked at the setting sun. For the first time in his life, he felt that sunset was breathtakingly beautiful.

He muttered, “Hehe… how could I let down the vast mountains and rivers of this land? How could I miss such a magnificent view again?”

With that, his gaze grew resolute, and he walked with a light step toward the place he had hated most in his past life.

In a warm chamber, a few figures paced anxiously inside, frequently glancing toward the pale-faced, unconscious young man lying on the bed.

A beautiful young girl sat at the bedside, her face slightly panicked. She held the youth’s hand in her palms, gently stroking it.

Finally, the youth’s eyelashes fluttered, and he slowly opened his eyes. Seeing Mu Qingwan gazing at him with concern, the corner of his lips curled into a fleeting, sly smile.

His voice was weak as he said, “Master, Senior Sisters, it’s all my fault for making you worry. I’m fine now!”

A charming woman stepped forward, her eyes full of concern as she gently said, “What silly words are those? You are master’s dearest. Seeing you so gravely injured nearly scared me to death. You must never be so reckless again!”

The youth tried to get up, but Mu Qingwan pressed him down firmly and said, “You’re badly injured. Don’t get up. Just speak while lying down.”

The youth smiled bitterly and said, “I’ve troubled Master and the Senior Sisters. It was my carelessness that provoked that demonic beast. But with you all here, I feel at ease.”

Mu Qingwan frowned and tapped his forehead, saying, “You’re our beloved Junior Brother. Isn’t it only right that we care for you? Why are you being so polite?”

Just then, another girl stepped forward and scolded, “You little fool! You scared your Second Senior Sister to death! No more doing dangerous things! If you want anything, just tell me. I’ll get it for you!”

“Exactly~ With us around, do you still need to risk yourself? Do you think our Third Senior Sister’s cultivation is that weak?”

“Xiao Han, tell Fourth Senior Sister what’s going on. You’ve never been this reckless before. Why today? Don’t you know how powerful that demonic beast is? Even I might not be able to defeat it. Why did you provoke it?”

The youth named Xiao Han looked guilty. He hesitated for a long time before saying, “Today… it’s Sister Qingwan and Brother Hun Yu’s wedding day. I heard there’s a Heaven’s Oracle Cold Star Grass that helps gather spiritual Qi. I wanted to retrieve it as a wedding gift for Brother Hun Yu, hoping he could restore his spiritual veins soon and live happily with Sister Qingwan.”

Just then, the door opened.

Hun Yu stepped inside.
