Hearing her words, no one was surprised that she was already married, since the hairstyle and other details they saw in the coffin indicated that she was dressed as a married woman.
As for the husband she mentioned, everyone's gaze turned to the black-haired monster beside them—of course, now the black hair on his body had decreased a lot, and it could be vaguely seen that he was a rather heroic man, but it seemed that because he had never seen the sun for many years, his face was extremely pale, like a zombie.
Before Zu'an could answer, the beautiful woman had already landed beside the black-haired monster, using her body to shield him from the flashlight beam, which slightly relieved the monster's pain.
The woman held the other person in her arms, her eyes filled with sorrow.
Seeing that she didn't react at all when the flashlight shone on her, Zuan knew that she was not an undead creature. He hesitated for a moment, then moved the flashlight slightly to the side, no longer shining it on the black-haired monster.
Of course, he wouldn't be foolish enough to turn off the flashlight, since it was only the last chance to use it. It would automatically turn off after an hour, so he had to make the most of the last bit of time to prevent the black-haired monster from suddenly attacking again.
"Thank you, young master!" The woman bowed to Zu An upon seeing this, her eyes filled with gratitude.
The black-haired monster was still whimpering, clutching its head as if in great pain, but the woman gently patted its body and sang a lullaby in an unknown tune, and the monster gradually calmed down.
He seemed to enjoy being in her arms, and even adjusted his position. The fierceness on his face disappeared, replaced by peace and affection.
"How should I address you, Madam?" Zu'an asked in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on between you two?"
“Everyone calls me Madam Fisher.” As soon as the woman finished answering, Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue looked at Yu Yanluo with strange expressions. Why does she sound so much like her?
Yu Yanluo was also puzzled. She could feel the warmth and affection emanating from the other person when they were in the jade coffin, and now that they were alive, that feeling was even stronger.
It was as if the other person was a family member, even though she was clearly not a Medusa.
Then the woman slowly said, "This is my husband, the former ruler of the State of Sui, whom people called Marquis Sui."
"Sui Kingdom?" The group of people on the stone platform looked at each other in bewilderment. Neither the human nor the demon race had ever heard of a Sui Kingdom.
Zu An's heart skipped a beat. Sui Guo, Sui Hou?
There really was such a country on Earth in my past life.
Noticing the blank looks on everyone's faces, the woman was somewhat surprised: "Never heard of it? It seems that it has been too long, and the Sui Kingdom has disappeared into the long river of history."
Then, with her slender fingers, she gently smoothed the monster's hair in her arms, as if...
As she recalled, she answered, "I first met my husband in a broken valley. I was severely injured after a life-or-death battle with my nemesis, my body was almost broken in two, and I could no longer maintain my human form. He happened to be passing by, and instead of being disgusted by my appearance, he had his men treat me and even personally bandaged my wounds, taking care of me all this time..."
"He really is a very kind person." The woman looked down at the monster in her arms, her face inexplicably gentle.
Everyone was startled, and they all thought of the murals they had seen when they first entered the ancient tomb, which seemed to depict this story.
However, the snake that was broken in two in the original painting was actually a large snake.
Yu Yanluo's gaze toward the woman became more fervent. This woman was indeed one of her kind, but why couldn't she sense any aura of kinship from her?
Sun and Moon Splendor
The subtle pressure emanating from the other party did not come from strength, but from the suppression of bloodline. Could there be a snake clan in the world with a bloodline more noble than Medusa's?
"Suihou Zhu!" Zu'an finally remembered where he had heard a similar story before.
The He Shi Bi and the Sui Hou Zhu were the two most famous treasures in China during the Spring and Autumn Period. However, the Sui Hou Zhu disappeared very early on, so it is less famous than the He Shi Bi.
The woman was somewhat surprised: "Oh, you actually know about this past event? That's right. After I recovered from my injuries, I returned to him to repay his kindness and gave him my natal pearl. People do indeed call it the Suihou Pearl."
For a moment, Zaun was in a daze. After arriving in this world, he discovered many relics and legends related to his previous life, but these were more or less tinged with mythology. Were they really the history known in his own world?
“But according to the records, it was a giant snake that brought a pearl to repay the kindness. Could it be that you are…” Zu’an asked hesitantly.
The woman nodded slightly: "That's right, I am a descendant of Nuwa, and I do have some snake blood in me."
The people on the stone platform were somewhat confused. They had never heard of Nuwa before, but upon learning that she was indeed a member of the snake clan, they all glanced at Yu Yanluo.
Yu Yanluo's breathing quickened. They were indeed of the same clan, but why had she never heard of the Nuwa clan?
"Nuwa?" Zu'an was shocked. In Chinese mythology, a huge hole appeared in the sky. Nuwa not only patched the sky, but also used the remaining five-colored divine clay to create humans.
The woman explained, "The ancestor is just a legend; we, his descendants, do not possess such extraordinary abilities."
She looked down at the man in her arms again, a gentle smile appearing on her face: "He saved me, and during that time we spent together day and night, I unknowingly fell in love with this gentle man. So later, not only did I come to repay him with a pearl, but I also specially transformed into human form to meet him."
Our meeting seemed destined by fate; he quickly fell in love with me too.
