The Wife of a Ghost - C268
I can no longer express my feelings with shock.
Compared to the truth that I have to face right now, I want to hear Mu Yu say that Zi Sangan brought her here, that she colluded with Zi Sangan to kill me and Zi Sang Ming, that she took the Ghost Seal on the day that the Ghost Seal was opened, and that she was the king in the underworld.
On the contrary, Mu Xue Nan used her own strength to save me when I was changing my body with Sang Ming. It even caused her primordial spirit to be seriously injured and fall into a state of false death.
It was obvious that she was the same as me, and was not willing to accept this fact. However, there was nothing she could do, as she had seen the entire process, and was even saved by Mu Xuenan in the midst of this battle. She also wanted to thank this person.
Mu Yu suddenly rolled her eyes at me. “Thanks to all of you, I won’t be able to take revenge on my enmity with Mu Xuenan.”
I am helpless. Not only are you unable to avenge me, my grievances have also suffered a loss due to your words.
When fusing with this body, I saw the fake record of Mu Xue Nan. Although I didn’t know what method Zishan Ming used, or rather, I should say that Mu Xue Nan had something that this fake person needed. In short, it was just as Mu Yu said, I have to thank Mu Xue Nan for being able to use this body right now. Moreover, I had initially planned to suppress all my hatred and slander towards Mu Xuannan and stop it from flaring up. In the end, I didn’t expect that what awaited me was this kind of situation.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this for now. Where’s Zishan Ming? Let’s wait for him to come out.”
I hurriedly stopped Mu Yu from speaking any further. Right now, the two of them are both lacking in money. Other than being anxious, there isn’t any other effective way to solve the problem in front of us.
If we don’t wake up in time, it will be very easy for our souls to leave our bodies. At that time, our debt will be even greater, and it will be very likely that we will have to shoulder it for the rest of our lives.
No, absolutely not.
Mu Yu brought me to the room next door. With a wave of her hand, I undid the seal on the door. Zi Sang Ming’s Dharma Body appeared before my eyes. He sat upright on the bed. Her clothes were snow-white, and her face was as white as paper.
“Zi Sang Ming.” I wanted to rush over to hug him, but just as I moved my feet, I was stopped by Mu Yu.
“Don’t worry, His Highness’ body is weak and recovering right now. Wait a moment.”
After saying that, I was forcefully pushed back into the chair by Mu Yu.
A faint layer of faint golden light surrounded Zishan Ming’s body. He hadn’t seen it when he first came in. Now that he had calmed down, he could feel a strong power from this faint light.
“What is this?”
I asked Mu Yu.
Mu Yu frowned and said solemnly, “The Royal Family’s protective barrier is like a protective film. It only appears when the Royal Family is extremely weak.”
They only appear when they are particularly weak.
The Zi Sang Ming in my memory is still that proud and arrogant person who would turn into a noble who would tease me in the middle of the night. I never thought that one day, he would be so weak that he would need to use a protective barrier to protect himself.
The one who made him act like this is obviously me.
I lowered my head, unknowingly tears in the eyes, in the heart of a mix of mixed feelings, it is hard to say what it is.
It just hurts.
After three days and three nights passed, I saw the light golden light on Zishan Ming’s body change from light to clear before returning to light once again.
“The protective barrier is not an ordinary protective barrier. If it wasn’t for the Wang family members, others would have been killed by the protective spiritual energy if they had rushed over. It was not easy for you to get a body, so stay here and don’t cause any trouble.”
“But will he be in danger!” I forced myself to sit down and asked Mu Yu with a frown.
“Right now, we are all outsiders. Only His Royal Highness knows if there are any dangers or not, so we should just wait and see.”
I knew she was trying to calm me down, but it reminded me of what the doctor had told the family of a critically ill patient at the hospital — that we had done our best to wake up and see if the patient had the will to do so.
“Zi Sang Ming!” Hearing Mu Yu’s words, I didn’t touch the protective barrier, but I didn’t obediently return to my seat either.
I stood in front of Zi Sang Ming and looked at his face. I whispered to him, “It doesn’t matter if you can hear me now or not, I still want to tell you.”
“Before, I had always felt that I was still a mortal, that I had to live in the mortal realm. After that, I had experienced life and death before returning to the mortal realm. I had always wanted to let you become a mortal, and then we would be happy together by my parents’ side.”
“But now, I feel that I am wrong. There are many things that I should accept and admit since they have already been clearly laid out in front of me. “Since my Rakshasi blood has already awakened, I should accept my identity, and should know that my previous thoughts are now completely unsuitable for the current me. Moreover, everyone has said that to marry a chicken to a dog, and since I have already acknowledged you and even have your child, I should follow you. It doesn’t matter if you are a mortal in the mortal world or an emperor in the mortal world, I should still be by your side.”
“Zi Sang Ming, how about you wake up? As long as you wake up, I will follow you to the Underworld, regardless of whether you are the King of the Underworld or not.” Also, I’ve always wanted to tell you that we should redo the wedding ceremony. Don’t you think that the first ceremony was a bit too hasty? We started over again, holding a wedding ceremony that didn’t require many guests, even if it was just the two of us, we would properly bow to each other three times. I especially wanted to hear that line: “First bow to heaven and earth, second bow to high hall, husband and wife bowing to each other.”
“Zi Sang Ming, you’ve always been so nice to me, so you definitely won’t reject this request of mine right? You wake up, we’ll go pay our respects, get married again, and I’ll solemnly marry you.”
“Alright.”
As I said this, I cried so much that I couldn’t see the light protective barrier clearly in front of my eyes. I cried until my ears started to hear hallucinations.
I think I heard him say yes.
My tears were too heavy and my body was too weak. I cried so much that I couldn’t stand up straight. I staggered and squatted down. Suddenly, an ice-cold hand fell on the top of my head.
My body stiffened, then I jerked my head up.
Zi Sang Ming smiled as he looked at me. He enunciated each word clearly, “I’ll give you an even bigger wedding. Yan Nuo, marry me, okay?”
Good, good, good, I’ll marry you!
I stood up and threw myself into Zi Sang Ming’s arms. I cried until I was completely hysterical. You scared the hell out of me. “Don’t take such a big risk in the future, okay? Don’t make me worry again, okay? I’m scared, I’m really scared.”
Zi Sang Ming stroked the hair at the back of my head and nodded, “Alright, I won’t let you worry about me in the future.”
I don’t know how long I cried in his arms until no more tears came out. My voice was hoarse as a dry cough sounded from behind me. I remembered that we weren’t the only ones in the room. He quickly pushed Zi Sang Ming to the side.
Zi Sang Ming’s face darkened. He glanced at Mu Yu and asked in a deep voice, “Is there something you need?”
Mu Yu rubbed her nose and said: “I’m really sorry for disturbing Your Highness’ intimate time with your highness, but I also have an urgent matter that needs to be resolved by the hall. If I don’t say it now, Mu Xue Nan’s soul will probably be shattered.”
After hearing Mu Yu’s reminder, my heart tightened. Only now did I remember that Mu Xuenan was still in her fake death state.
We have already been here for three days, could Mu Xuenan’s condition have worsened?!
“Take her to the Underworld to find Black Impermanence.” Zishan Ming glanced at Mu Xue Nan and said to Mu Yu, “There won’t be any danger within ten days after you have faked your death. However, after ten days, you’ll be scared out of your mind every day. Three days have already passed, you have to go quickly.”
Mu Yu frowned as she glanced at the messy building from the corner of her eyes, as though she had something to say.
I could already tell from when Mu Yu told me that she wanted to thank Mu Xue Nan. She already forgave Mu Xue Nan from the bottom of her heart, and even though the two of them were unhappy and even hated each other, but now, after experiencing this matter, Mu Yu has already forgiven Mu Xue Nan. After all, they were twins. There were many things between them that I could not see clearly, nor could I give a fair evaluation from the perspective of someone else. Since the two parties involved had already been completely put down, I should still respect them.
This was a territory that Mu Xuenan fought for with one hand after entering the meat forest. Mu Yu would hesitate for a moment and not immediately bring Mu Xuenan away, as she was probably worried that this place would be monopolized by the evil spirits in the meat forest after they left.
“Go ahead. There’s no need to worry about this place. I’ll handle it. When will you return? The master of this place will still be you.”
Mu Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly kneeled down and gave me a huge bow. “Thank you, Your Highness. Little Highness.”
“Alright, there’s nothing to thank. Hurry up and go, we don’t have much time left.” I supported Mu Yu up as I spoke.
Zishan Ming once again gave Mu Yu a identity token, “Your identity card will tell you where to go. Give this to Black Impermanence when you find him. He will treat Mu Xuannan.”
Mu Yu expressed her thanks once again before bringing Mu Xue Nan along with him as they walked quickly towards the direction of Sang Ming’s identity plate.
It’s getting closer and closer to the time for the Ghost Seal to open, and the Skeleton Maiden’s stay in my mother’s body is also getting longer. After sending Mu Yu and Mu Xuenan off, we didn’t delay any further and covered the side of the building with a Royal Family barrier, continuing to think about our next departure.
“Do the words you said while I was recuperating still count?” After exiting the meat forest, I made a hand sign for Cheng Yun to carry Zi Sang Ming. He hugged my waist, put his head against my shoulder and asked, “I heard everything you said.”
My face flushed.
At that time, Zishan Ming fainted. Because I was worried, I didn’t look into his eyes when I said that, so I said a lot. Now that I was mentioned by him and recalled it again, those words came back to my mind word by word.
I lowered my head and didn’t answer him.
I want to go!
“This King is more serious. Since you said that, then I will take it as the truth. You said that you will follow this King and follow the lead of a chicken and a dog to become this King’s wife. Now, are you really prepared to accompany this King in the underworld?”
I’ve never thought about it. I’m willing to stay with you all the time.
I blushed and nodded in agreement.
In the end, when I wasn’t paying attention, Zi Sang Ming lightly pecked my lips.
“Oh, I’m sorry I didn’t see it on purpose.”
