"Because there are other people's souls inside your bodies."
Sisi slightly raised her eyes, and the sky suddenly darkened. Feng Yue gritted his teeth, "What do you want to do? Take someone else's soul? Who exactly are you?"
She is not the eldest princess at all!
Fu Yuan also realized, "Are you a demon?"
"Impossible! How could the eldest princess be a demon?"
As soon as Nalan Ce finished speaking, he saw Fu Yuan's gaze sweep over him. "She is. Otherwise, how could she have saved you? You were a weak woman who couldn't even kill a chicken. You were being chased and killed. How could she possibly have stood up to you?"
Yes, how could a weak woman possibly save her? But she…
Nalan Ce suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head and fainted from the pain. Fu Yuan clenched his fists and said, "You monster, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Sisi waved her hand, causing him to faint as well.
"Feng Yue, tell me, among the three of you, which one is Zhou Qiyan's physical body?"
Upon hearing this name, Feng Yue's face turned deathly pale.
He dreamed of this name more than once, of this person who looked exactly like him, and that he had taken his place and stayed by the prince's side.
They did many intimate things, saw many sights and people, and had only each other in their eyes.
Therefore, when His Highness looks at him, he is looking at that person. Even if he takes him back, it's only because he looks like that person.
Even Nalan Ce was one of them.
They were all Zhou Qiyan's stand-ins.
"Your Highness's words are truly hurtful."
Feng Yue's voice was strained, "Is the person in Your Highness's heart really among us? But the three of us have independent souls. If you find him, what will happen to the soul of the original body?"
"Naturally, their souls will be scattered and their spirits will be destroyed."
He raised his eyes. "So, Your Highness thinks that Zhou Qiyan's body is my body, and Your Highness wants my soul to be scattered? That's how much Your Highness hates me?"
Sisi looked at him calmly, "I don't hate you. I'm just different from you. When I love someone, I don't want anyone else but him."
"Your Highness is referring to Yu Xue?"
He suddenly laughed, but as he laughed, tears fell. "I have never loved Yu Xue. From beginning to end, I have only loved Your Highness."
"Love needs to be seen. Love that can't be seen isn't love. Feng Yue, I'm not the princess who picked you up. You don't need to be sad."
Where is she?
Sisi shook her head. "I don't know where she is. My appearance made her disappear. Maybe if I disappear, she will appear. I won't stay for long."
Feng Yue stopped talking.
Sisi opened her hand, and three beams of white light flew swiftly toward the hearts of the three men. In just a moment, the three souls were pulled out.
What happens if you choose the wrong body?
Feng Yue laughed, a hint of malice in his eyes, "Will Your Highness never see Zhou Qiyan again from now on?"
"I won't make a mistake."
The three souls flew towards Nalan Ce, and Feng Yue's pupils shrank. "Didn't you say that my body was the right one?"
Sisi ignored it and watched as the three souls successfully merged into Nalan Ce's body before she smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you, the reason Zhou Qiyan's soul split was because I wanted him to have a spiritual root."
The Ghost King has no spiritual root.
Fu Yuan, on the other hand, was an ordinary person from beginning to end.
Only Nalan Ce felt the strongest sense of familiarity, along with the spiritual root within his body that had been sealed away.
Feng Yue chuckled, "In the end, Your Highness still thinks that my status is lowly."
No matter how hard he tried to become strong and free from humiliation, in her heart he was still a slave.
"If you belittle yourself, who will respect you?"
Sisi smiled faintly, "The wedding will proceed as scheduled tomorrow. You can cancel it at any time if you do not wish to."
"Fine, if Your Highness wants me to marry him, then of course I will." Feng Yue said this with a hint of defiance, but Fu Yuan happened to hear it, and the two started fighting, both with a hint of anger in their voices.
Fu Yuan was no match for Feng Yue.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, his face extremely pale. "Even if you beat me to death today, you'll never marry Xue'er!"
Feng Yue disdained to take his life and left coldly.
Sisi's gaze was no longer on him. Fu Yuan clutched his chest, blood gushing from his mouth. "You're a monster, and he's a monster too. No wonder you took him back. What's your purpose?"
Sisi ignored him. She saw Ayan's eyelashes tremble, and that familiar feeling made her heart beat faster. She reached out and took his hand.
Her voice was soft and trembling, "A-Yan."
The man gently opened his eyes, and her image was reflected entirely in his dark pupils.
"lady?"
Sisi smiled and hugged him.
Zhou Qiyan smiled weakly, "Madam, I've been waiting for you for so long, you've finally arrived."
"Yes, I'm here."
Am I still the same old, faded woman?
Sisi cupped his face in her hands, her eyes glistening with tears. "No, you've become younger, just as handsome as before."
"So, did I live a long life?"
"certainly."
Sisi released the seal on his spiritual root, and Zhou Qiyan sensed its presence almost instantly.
My whole body was enveloped in a strange warmth.
Should we go back now?
Sisi knew where he meant by "going back." She pulled him up, but before she could say "definitely," Fu Yuan suddenly looked at the two of them coldly and said, "It is said that the eldest son of the Marquis of Zhenguo is bound by a seal and is a ghost or demon. Today, I have seen that it is indeed true."
He laughed again, "Nalan Ce, don't you know? The Taoist priest who sealed you back then said that if the seal were broken without cause, your whole family would be drained of their life essence and die a violent death in the streets!"
Zhou Qiyan no longer has Nalan Ce's soul in his body, and he has no memories of Nalan Ce, so he does not understand what he is saying.
Sisi remained calm and said, "I will go to the Zhenguo Marquis's residence myself, so there's no need for Young Master Fu to worry about it."
Where are you going?
Watching the two leave hand in hand, Fu Yuan couldn't help but shout, "Long Sisi, you are a princess! You can't leave the princess's residence! If you fancy this man, just bring him into the residence! You..."
Sisi walked very fast, and she didn't hear what was said after that. Zhou Qi looked at the person beside him with longing and held his hand even tighter.
Thank goodness, he's back.
This time, he won't leave again.
A major incident has occurred at the Zhenguo Marquis's residence: the eldest son has gone missing, and the Buddhist amulet enshrined in the Buddhist hall has been broken.
The matriarch of the Nalan family led the Nalan clan in kneeling before the ancestral tablets in the Buddhist hall overnight to pray.
A maid rushed in to report, "Grandma, Master, Madam, the eldest young master is back, and...and..."
The old lady's cloudy eyes lit up, and seeing her flustered and unruly appearance, she scolded, "What are you stammering for? Tell the truth!"
"Young...Young Master, you've brought the Princess back. The two are holding hands, looking very..."
The Marquis of Zhenguo slammed his fist on the ground, yelling, "Where is that damned brat now?"
"He's sitting in the main hall."
