After walking for a while, the two arrived at a house. In front of the house was a withered maple tree with a swing hanging from its trunk. Unlike the other houses they had seen on the road, there were no other houses or ghosts within a ten-mile radius of this house.
"Mother..." Xiaoxiao tugged at Fengguang's hand, successfully bringing the person who was lost in thought back to reality.
Feng Guang smiled unconsciously, "I'm just... a little nervous."
Their separation was only a few days for her, but for him it felt like more than seven hundred years.
Undeniably, she felt guilty and ashamed.
"Mother, don't be afraid, Father won't forget you." Xiaoxiao simply thought that her mother was afraid that her father would forget her.
Fengguang was pulled into the house by Xiaoxiao. After passing through the desolate courtyard, they arrived at a house.
"Mother, Father is inside... He hasn't come out for a very, very long time..." Xiaoxiao has never been able to keep track of time, so she didn't remember how many days Father hadn't come out. She said pitifully, "Mother, when you go in and see Father, can you please say a good word for me and ask him not to be angry with Xiaoxiao anymore? Xiaoxiao promises she will never wear red clothes again."
"Okay... I'll talk to him." Feng Guang squatted down and lovingly stroked her soft hair. "Xiao Xiao, be good. Mommy will go inside and talk to Daddy first, okay?"
"Okay! I'll play on the swing by the door. Mom and Dad will take me out to play after they finish talking!" Xiaoxiao happily let go of Fengguang's hand and ran out again.
Feng Guang stood up, and after Xiao Xiao's figure disappeared, she looked at the closed door, took a deep breath, and then placed her hand on the door. The barrier set up on the door was useless to her; she only needed to touch the door lightly, and the door opened by itself.
The ghost realm, devoid of sunlight, was already gloomy, and the room was even darker, with only one or two candles casting a faint glow.
Feng Guang walked in without hesitation, and the door closed automatically.
The room was not as small as it appeared from the outside. Only those who went inside knew that it was a huge space. Such space-expanding techniques were not difficult for people with cultivation. Even her little bamboo house had been expanded.
I'll see him soon...
Suppressing my excitement, I walked deeper and deeper into the scenery.
"Who are you?" As a woman's voice suddenly rang out, she stopped in her tracks.
Fang Yue... he actually kept a mistress behind her back!?
Another female voice asked, "Who are you?"
Fengguang: "..."
Holy crap, he's keeping more than one woman!
A third voice appeared, "This isn't a place you can just walk into."
"It will be very dangerous if we don't go out soon."
"Yes, you should go out now."
...
One after another, female voices rang out from different directions. After instinctively feeling angry, Feng Guang felt something was strange... because all the voices were the same female voice.
In the dimly lit room, she couldn't see her surroundings clearly, so she took out the Immortal's Bright Lamp from her storage bracelet. Even though she had lost her magic power, the lamp lit up automatically as soon as she took it out, and the room was instantly brightly lit.
Startled, Feng Guang dropped the bright lamp in his hand, but the rootless flame inside continued to burn, illuminating the room.
The warm firelight illuminated every woman in the darkness; some were smiling, some were expressionless, but they all wore the same face…
It was her face.
"Who is it..." A gloomy voice came from the corner. In the blink of an eye, Feng Guang felt her neck being grabbed. She saw a pale-faced man whose body was weak and seemed vulnerable, but the hand gripping her neck was still very strong. He said in a weak voice, "Is it you? You unruly... puppet."
A hot tear fell onto the back of his hand, and his body trembled. Then he heard her soft sobs. When he met her eyes, which were filled with tears, he looked blank for a moment, but soon his dark eyes widened. His trembling hand landed on her arm, and he pulled her tightly into his embrace.
The women in the room instantly transformed into rays of light, flying into his body and becoming... the ribs that should have been part of his body.
