men in suits stood at the door. When they saw us, they nodded to us and said, "Our young master said that this Mu Yunliang inside is connected to a corpse of the Ghost King, and he can't be taken away...When Jiang Qiyun pulled me ashore, Bai WuChang was scaring those grave robbers. He rarely revealed his true form, but seeing it sent them running for their lives, wetting themselves in fear.

"Why, why..." My voice was hoarse from the cold, my teeth chattering as I bit my tongue.

Jiang Qiyun silently took off my wet clothes and wrapped me in the down jacket my brother handed him.

But wouldn't just wearing two legs be colder

He told Bai Wu Chang, "Get rid of those corpses."

"As you wish~~Hee hee, my lady, don't glare at me. I have a backup plan for you..." Bai Wu Chang smiled at me and took out a long staff from his sleeve, tapping it on my forehead.

It was like a bucket of ice water over my head, instantly bringing back the terror of being held by my arm and dangled over the well!

"You, you..." I hid behind Jiang Qiyun's back. This guy was really terrifying!

His coldness and wickedness were definitely an authentic performance!!

Before Bai Wu Chang threw me down, he tapped my forehead with his long staff. Could he have cast a spell on me then

"Little Empress~ I'm working so hard but nobody appreciates me! Alas, the divine beings don't even care about my plight~~" He complained as he walked towards the drifting corpses.

Jiang Qiyun used magic to draw a circle, and he walked me into it. I thought the opposite side was my room—he had carried me past it once before.

To my surprise, it was the small building of the Shen family. I had lived there for over a month before. He had cast spells there too

"Qiyun, what on earth is going on Why did Bai Wuchang throw me into Huangliang Well!" I feel like an ant, being toyed with by these gods.

Jiang Qiyun put me on the edge of the bed and smiled, "What's wrong Are you angry"

I... I really want to be angry, but I can't seem to get there right now.

He was right in front of me, and I felt like nothing else mattered.

"When I went to find the Tai Yi deity and separate its soul and spirit, one part of the spirit was damaged. So I filled in a new one." Jiang Qiyun chuckled lightly.

I listened quietly as he continued to speak.

"This foolish act was noticed by the old man Ziwei, who was already displeased with me. I had given him a blood curse that would last forever, so he challenged me to a duel."

In his eyes, mortal love is nothing more than a fleeting obsession, vanishing in the blink of an eye. He made Bai Wu Chang set my name as a forbidden spell. If you can't remember it, I cannot manifest beside you again, but...

His voice trailed off with a hint of triumph: “They have no idea how obsessed my little wife can be.”

"Mu Xiaoqiao, I said before, whether or not you will forget me depends on yourself."

" ... But it's alright, you remembered your husband's name after not being foolish for too long."

He tossed his dripping clothes aside as he spoke.

I lingered, savoring his words, until his icy skin pressed against mine, sending a shiver down my spine. Only then did I come to my senses: "Wait! Bai Wu Chang threw me into Huang Liang Well—"

"That well wasn't a dream, he didn't act on his own accord, but followed my orders to throw you into the Returning Yang Well. He lied to you."dle on my body and died himself. Long Xiao just 'pushed' him onto the car, saying maybe it would be useful..." I whispered.Mu Wanchen pressed my head against his chest, frowning slightly. "Since it wa...
