“So, I was going to marry you?”

Priests can’t get married, right?

She never heard of Xi Chu before. Maybe its background is different and priest can get married there...

Ling Yan shook his head. “You are just guarding me. However, you can marry me now.”

“You think too much,” Ming Shu scorned. “A knowledgeable and beautiful lady like me should appear extravagantly and leave with a good reputation. Who has the time to spend with you?”

Ling Yan: “...”

Very shameless.

You can only become an infamous person in history.

You broke my train of thoughts for my script... where was I?

Ling Yan contained his emotions and continued, “Two thousand years ago, demon tribes flourished and killed humans. Civilians suffered greatly. Grudges were everywhere. Although the demon tribes were killed in the end, the hatred garnered can’t be destroyed.”

“So you used your body to carry this hatred selflessly?” Ming Shu interrupted Ling Yan. “I can’t tell that you are such a selfless person.”

Ling Yan: “...”

F**k, can you not interrupt me? It was not easy for me to memorize the script!

Ling Yan took a deep breath. “Someone suggested it. The priest is very powerful and this was what those things liked. If the priest used his body to lured the hateful spirits and then form an array, they could be destroyed.

“This was the only way. In order to deal with the demon tribes, we lost a lot of capable people. As a priest, I needed to sacrifice for the human race.

“They spilled my blood little by little. The hateful spirits smelled it and rushed over, fighting to enter my body... but they failed in the end. I lived and became like this. They were afraid and scared. I don’t know why I remained conscious, but I heard them thinking of various ways to deal with me.

Ling Yan’s hand, which was holding Ming Shu’s, tightened. Although he’d just inherited the memories, they were so painful that he could feel it too.

Ling Yan suddenly fell quiet.

At first, Ling Yan was holding her hand. Now, she held his hand. She waited for a moment before asking, “What happened after that?”

“After that...” Ling Yan looked at the woman in the coffin faintly. “When I woke up, they buried me alive. They used some treasures to form an array and I couldn’t get out.

He suddenly turned his head. “However, they were worried and that was why you came. They said that you are here to guard me, but in reality, you are the last portion of the array. If I still wanted to get out, you could use the array and the treasures to die together with me.

“Maybe it was because of some incident, but your spirit didn’t appear beside me. I stayed here alone until, many years later, someone let me out. It was an era when Taoist masters prevailed. Not long after, I was locked up in the 19th level of Hell and never saw daylight again.

“I didn’t want to leave. The 19th level of Hell was very quiet and peaceful. It let me feel less pain.”

Ling Yan paused.

“Then why did you come out?”

Ling Yan seemed to be in deep thought. “Because someone touched the treasures used to make the array.

“When I was let out, these treasures sucked in much hatred. This meant that indirectly, these treasures kept my powers and we helped each other mutually. As the thing that is supposed to balance the hateful spirits in my body, I will still be affected even if I am in the 19th level of Hell.

“If we don’t place the treasures back in their original locations, I will lose control one day, just like...”

Just like last time.

Ming Shu squatted on the ground and looked at the woman in the coffin. If it wasn’t for the fact that she wasn’t breathing, she would seem to be asleep. A tinge of red was still on her face.

The coffin had been opened by someone, but the person inside was still her. This was because...

“Ah—”

Ming Shu retracted her hand. Ling Yan pulled her up and his fingers stroked the burn on her hand. He even held it to his lips and kissed it.

Ling Yan said, “No human or ghost can touch this body.”

“But I am her spirit, can I still go back?” Ming Shu wanted to try. If she was a human, she could eat whatever she wanted.

Ling Yan looked at her strangely. His expression seemed cold. “You want to be human?”

“Isn’t it good to be human?” You can eat all kinds of snacks.

Ling Yan suddenly sneered, “Don’t even think about it.”

“Mister Ling Yan, I need to remind you. As a qualified admirer, you need to satisfy all the wishes of the person you like.” Ming Shu started talking nonsense seriously. “My wish is to be human. Can you make that happen?”

“No,” Admirer Ling Yan said with a cold face, “don’t even think about it.”

Ming Shu shouted, “You should go to the great wall and take a queue number!”

Ling Yan: “...”

You only have one admirer and that’s me. Do you think you are loved by everyone? Where did your face go!

Ming Shu didn’t care about what Ling Yan thought. She walked around the coffin and examined it. How could she get inside the body?

The results were infuriating. She couldn’t get in.

Ming Shu lost interest after a while and sat to the side to eat her food.

Ling Yan started digging around the coffin.

Ming Shu’s eyes turned. She suddenly said, “Ling Yan, do you like me or do you like the one in the coffin?”

Ling Yan sneered, “Both are the same.”

Ming Shu thought about it and realized he was right. “Then do you like the me from 2000 years ago or do you like the me now?”

Ling Yan stopped his actions and turned around. The young girl sat among the messy stones with folded legs. Her thick dark hair flowed down behind her. She wore a gentle smile like a bright-colored peony that bloomed in a calligraphy painting.

He turned back and continued digging. The entire place turned quiet. There were only the sounds of digging.

“I like you.”

He liked her, not the An Ge from 2000 years ago. The person he liked was the An Ge that made him so angry, he wanted to kill her.

Ling Yan was stunned.

[Lord Nine, you are dead.]

Ling Yan kept quiet and sighed. I am dead.

He actually fell in love with his target, and the love came about so suddenly. He seemed to have known her for a very long time, such that the moment he saw her, he wanted to love her...

He must be ill.

[Don’t be anxious, Lord Nine, we have the technology to erase your memory. You will forget everything when you get back.]

Ling Yan didn’t want to tell the system that he was very against this technology now. He didn’t want to forget her.

Ling Yan shivered. How could he fall in love with this idiot? His illness was quite serious. I wonder if it can still be cured.

While Ling Yan was brainwashing himself and telling himself that he was ill, Ming Shu smiled and said in a clear and pleasant voice, “Ling Yan, if you can find me ten pig trotters now, I will agree to be together with you.”

Crazy.

Where can I go to find pig trotters for you?

He ignored her and continue digging.

“Hey, don’t you want to be with me?” Ming Shu went closer. “Ten pig trotters and we can be together. Are you not willing to give it a try?”

Ling Yan suddenly pulled up his sleeves and put an arm in front of Ming Shu’s mouth. He stared at her coldly. “Take a bit and see if it tastes like pig trotters.”

Ming Shu avoided it. “You don’t cherish such a good opportunity. Continue working hard then.”

I want to eat pig trotters.

I want to eat pig trotters made by my chef.
