The grievances and resentment emanating from old-fashioned novels are palpable.

Jiang Si cursed inwardly. Who could stand being labeled a "scumbag woman" like that?

Anyway, she couldn't stand it anymore. Jiang Si rolled up her sleeves and was about to speak when she went up to her.

Agares stood in front of her, staring at Shu Xubai who held a blood-stained blade, his voice icy cold: "Your Excellency, my wife had no prior marriage before we were legally married. Perhaps you have some misunderstanding!"

"Or perhaps you've been hurt by your beloved and can't stand seeing others in love, so you're here to cause trouble!"

Jiang Si stared in astonishment at her cheap husband's sidelong glance, her heart pounding faster. He didn't question her, nor did he doubt her.

He stood before her with eyes full of trust, shielding her from the wind and rain without asking any questions.

How could this straight man, a highly intelligent man who likes to nitpick, be so good at touching people's hearts?

"Misunderstanding?" Shu Xubai completely disregarded Agares: "You brat, this is between her and me, it has nothing to do with you. If you insist on interfering, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Agares gripped the Tang sword, slowly raising it with the tip pointing at Shu Xubai: "Your Excellency is questioning my wife. I'm going to pay for this. If you want to fight, I'm ready. Please!"

"You brat, since you're courting death, I'll grant your wish!" Shu Xubai's blood-stained blade exuded a strong stench of blood as he slashed at Agares's neck.

With a resounding clang!

Jiang Si's Tang sword blocked his bloody blade.

The murderous aura of the Tang sword enveloped his blood-stained blade, rendering it unable to move.

Shu Xubai's pale face flushed red with anger: "Jiang Si, you really are..."

Jiang Si scoffed and sneered, "I'm really heartless. Didn't you already know that? You call me shameless, but you're the one who has a shame?"

"You're getting on in years, that's enough. Stop fighting and killing all the time, making yourself look like a villain!"

"Outside, the spring sunshine is bright, and there are countless galaxies. Go sightseeing and enjoy the rest of your life. I can provide you with some travel expenses. Just don't cause any trouble, isn't that great!"

"How good is it? Without you, nothing is good!" Shu Xubai forcefully swung the blade in his hand, which carried a powerful aura of ferocity and the smell of blood, and pressed down on Jiang Si.

Jiang Jiang, who was standing next to him, was pressed to the ground by the powerful malevolent aura. The little bat dragged him backward by his tattered collar, away from the battlefield where the big shots were fighting.

Agares frowned and swung his sword, but unexpectedly felt a weight around his waist. A green willow branch wrapped around his waist and pulled him backward, trying to take him away from this life-or-death duel arena.

Agares was dragged along, his knife stuck in the ground to steady himself. He then pulled on the willow branch and broke it.

When he looked back at his young wife, all he saw was a whirlpool and a cloud of dust.

Shu Xubai and Jiang Si were inside the vortex. Their powerful spirits enveloped the vortex, creating a barrier that Agares could not break through no matter how hard he tried to cut with his Tang sword imbued with spiritual power.

Shu Xubai reversed the blood-stained blade in his hand, picked up a drop of blood from it, put it in his mouth, and sucked it clean: "Jiang Jiang, your blood is still so delicious!"

"For 3,000 years, no one's blood has been as sweet or as beautiful as yours!"

Jiang Si exhaled and flicked a lump of meat off the tip of her knife. "Shu Xubai, after 3000 years, your meat still smells so bad!"

"I told you not to drink blood, I told you not to eat meat, but you wouldn't listen! You stink so badly, you're useless even if you're alive!"

He stabbed her with a blood-stained blade.

She used the tip of her knife to slice off a chunk of his flesh.

Neither of them gained anything, and neither of them benefited from the other.

They're all bastards, inhuman. When they fight, they don't care about family or friends; they only want the other person dead.

"If I don't drink blood and eat meat, will you stay by my side?" Shu Xubai gripped the blood-red blade and walked towards Jiang Si, his blood-red eyes and sharp teeth filled with excitement: "As long as you stay by my side like you did when we were kids, I'll do whatever you ask. I won't kill that brat outside!"

"I don't mind if you sleep with that brat, and I certainly don't mind if you have a marital relationship with him!"

Jiang Si, carrying a Tang sword, walked towards Shu Xubai, her eyes reddening and her gaze sharp and filled with murderous intent: "Childhood? Lab? Do you know that I never had a childhood? I escaped from the lab, and the first thing I did was get an MRI. I got an MRI a total of 29 times!"

"I almost died on the operating table, just to forget the lab, to forget my childhood. And you're talking to me about the lab, about my childhood, trying to rekindle old feelings?"

"Shu Xubai, what I hate most is the laboratory, what I hate most is you telling me that compromise and obedience will bring freedom!"

Shu Xubai stopped in his tracks, his face full of astonishment: "You performed the MECT 3000-year-old human memory erasure method 29 times?"

Jiang Si walked up to him, swung her Tang sword and slashed at his shoulder, saying firmly, "Yes, MECT, I did it 29 times, just to forget the lab, to forget you all."

Shu Xubai was slashed on the shoulder, and bright red blood gushed out. He seemed not to feel the pain and reached out to touch Jiang Si's face: "Jiang Jiang, do you know that I have been planning our future? For our future, I infected myself with the zombie virus and became the zombie king, just so that I could be with you forever!"
