The clear lake water ripples, pink lotus leaves are everywhere, and a light boat moves slowly forward. Yu Nuan sits by the boat, gently paddling the lake water with her hands, with a leisurely posture.
Long Fei stood aside with a wooden face, his heart filled with confusion and no other emotions.
Long Fei, who had recovered his memory, knew about the evil corpse clan and was also clear about their characteristics, such as their proficiency in the flesh and their proficiency in poison.
But... not long ago, he saw with his own eyes that the evil corpse in front of him who controlled the power of death waved his hand and brought back life to the ruins of over a hundred miles!
Even though Long Fei had read many secrets of the dragon clan, he really couldn't understand how it was possible for someone with the attribute of death to revive life!
These are clearly two attributes that restrain each other!
What level of strength does one need to have in order to have the power to control life and death, to turn the dead land into a barren land in an instant, and to restore life in an instant?
Long Fei didn't know and didn't dare to ask for the answer.
"You must have a lot of questions in your mind, right?" Yu Nuan picked up a lotus petal and said softly.
Long Fei was silent.
You might not believe me if I say no, but to be honest... I'm afraid and don't dare to ask.
"Your guess is correct. My name is Yu Nuan, not the one you were with for a while before." Lotus petals fell into her hands and floated gently, and Yu Nuan continued.
After hesitating for a moment, Long Fei couldn't help but said, "You are Yu Nuan, then who is she? What's her name?"
Yu Nuan turned around and shook her head gently at him, "I can't tell you who she is or what her name is, but I can tell you why she is here."
"...Why?" Long Fei raised his eyebrows.
Why did that person appear in Daliang and in his life? Wasn't this just a coincidence, but was there a reason?
Yu Nuan tilted her head, pondered for a moment, and said, "How should I put it...she is a very strange person."
Long Fei immediately became confused, "Strange?"
Is that person weird? What does it have to do with his appearance in Daliang?
"When I was still alive, I was an ordinary person, and the place I lived in was just an ordinary small country. I didn't know about immortals or ghosts, and it was very similar to Daliang."
Yu Nuan smiled, looked at the lake and began to reminisce.
"I encountered a lot of bad things in my life. I was deceived by someone my whole life. I didn't regret it until the moment of my death."
Lifting her hair by her ear, Yu Nuan continued, "I thought I was doomed, but then she suddenly appeared in front of me and asked me if I wanted to live and seek revenge."
"The answer is of course yes, and then, she ended my life with her own hands." Yu Nuan laughed.
"Honestly, at that moment, the disbelief in my heart almost overflowed. I really wanted to question her. Didn't you promise to let me live? Didn't you promise to help me get revenge? Why... did you want to kill me?"
He said he wanted to save people, but actually he killed them. If it were him, he would probably go crazy, Long Fei couldn't help but think.
"When I woke up again, I had become like this. She transformed me into a murderous corpse!"
Refining? Long Fei looked at her in surprise.
He knew that there were some human monks who could refine evil corpses, but these artificially refined things sometimes had great flaws.
The level it is at when it is refined will remain at the same level afterwards, with no possibility of improvement.
Unless the refined product is put back into the furnace, and materials are added to refine it again.
Moreover, most of the artificially created corpses cannot retain their memories from their previous lives and rely on instinct to fight.
I can only roughly understand the master's orders.
Was Yu Nuan created by someone? Then how could she maintain such a clear mind and become so powerful?
Long Fei was a little messy.
"Don't you believe it? Do you think this kind of thing can't happen?" Yu Nuan asked back, then shook her head and said, "Actually, after spending more time with her, you'll find... nothing is impossible with her!"
"I used to not believe in miracles, but she herself is a miracle."
Long Fei was speechless for a moment. He didn't expect Yu Nuan to admire that person so much. How could there be such a person in this world?
He believed in creating something that others could hardly achieve, but he only believed in it. Miracles? That was an exaggeration.
"As for why I call her weird... because she always likes to help others while keeping them in the dark, not letting them know, or even making them hate her."
Yu Nuan paused and gently stirred the lake water with her slender hands.
"Don't disbelieve me, I was deceived by her for a long time. I was thinking about killing this bastard who performed various experiments on me all day long! Even if the corpse is numb to pain, it doesn't mean that I can't feel pain!"
"Later, I learned that the purpose of her experiment was to increase the potential of this corpse, allowing me to maintain my sanity while improving my own strength."
She raised her hand, letting the crystal clear water droplets slide down from her fingers. "She succeeded, but..."
But Yu Nuan didn't say anything else and remained silent.
After hearing this part of the story, Long Fei roughly understood what Yu Nuan wanted to say.
What she meant was that the person who occupied her body and came to him was helping him and wanted him not to resent her.
Regardless of whether the story is true or not, how could there be such a person in the world...who helps others without asking for anything in return, and instead causes resentment?
"Later I learned that her dream was to become a villain, and she even swore an oath to the heavens, haha..." Yu Nuan laughed happily, "Her villainy can only be considered a bad taste at best!"
Long Fei seemed to roll her eyes. "This story is getting more and more outrageous, isn't it? Anyone who believes this is a fool!"
"When you arrived at the cemetery, did you feel that everything was too coincidental? Everything seemed abnormal?" Yu Nuan asked.
"...Yeah." Long Fei admitted that it was too much of a coincidence that he met the grave-sweeper right after entering the cemetery.
"Because she deliberately led you there." Yu Nuan confirmed, "Two drunkards who made their fortune lately, grave sweepers, walked to the palace where Huai Ji was. Everything was done by her secretly."
Long Fei: "..." Just tell me, when did he start to think about me!
"Do you think she's thinking about your body? Haha... Under the influence of the dragon soul, how rare can a mortal body contaminated with dragon energy be?"
Long Fei opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything in rebuttal.
Before he had any memories, he might have insisted on his opinion, but now... that little bit of dragon energy is just a dispensable dessert for a high-level evil corpse.
Could it be that the man didn't take his life and found a reason to keep him, not for... saving enough food to sustain him, but for other purposes?
What was this other purpose? To help him? How... could that be possible?
