Perhaps it was because Qing Wu's eyes were too unfriendly, Xiao Chenyan slightly restrained his smile.
The couple pretended to talk for a while, but then the shadow cat's tail turned into a substitute and it had to roll back to Nanling to be a target.
As for the shadow cat who swore that he was "protecting" Xiao Chenyan and that he took action against the crown prince and the seventh prince in order to retrieve his "treasure" for Xiao Chenyan, we can only listen to it for now.
The cat couldn't explain its origins, nor what its 'treasure' was. It didn't seem to have any other use except to make the situation more confusing.
Qing Wu and Xiao Chenyan both felt that there was no need to worry about these details. To figure them out, they only needed to find out one thing, which was the secret of Xiao Chenyan's identity that was hidden in him, something that even he himself didn't know.
Qing Wu had a hunch that perhaps the self-immolation of the Eastern Palace, the death of the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion and the disappearance of the souls of 100,000 soldiers in battle were all related to this secret.
To find out the truth, Qing Wu has to go back downstairs in person.
"In the short term, you will be with your little pet day and night, inseparable, so you better be careful."
Qing Wu said something caring in a firm tone.
"good."
Qing Wu choked with surprise. She used to bicker with Xiao Chenyan, but lately he had been so obedient that she didn't know what to do.
I often feel powerless, as if I had punched someone in the face.
"I have something else to do tonight, so you should go to bed early."
Xiao Chenyan didn't ask her what she was going to do, but just asked: "Can you come in and sleep tonight?"
Qing Wu pursed her lips and glared at him.
The man looked normal, serious and could not find fault with him: "It's easy to lose vigilance at night. I feel more at ease with you by my side."
His Highness the Prince Yan, who is full of evil spirit, still needs to find a sense of security in a delicate girl like her?
Qing Wu: "...You really don't have any ulterior motives?"
"You figured it out?" The man raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled slightly on his golden and jade-like face: "I have other intentions. I want to stay with you forever."
Qing Wu was caught off guard by his direct hit, and her heart skipped a beat. She was silent for a moment, sighed, and said earnestly: "Xiao Chenyan, as a human being, you can't... at least you shouldn't fall in love with a female ghost. Believe me, there will be no good result if you really do that."
He stared at her with clear eyes and said softly, "Why, if I fall in love with you, you'll go to hell?"
Qing Wu's facial features were all wrinkled up: "It's even worse than this. Mainly because I'm afraid of retribution. If we were together, either you would be drained of your Yang Qi, or I would break the rules and suffer retribution."
"If we insist on getting together, won't it be like two enemies trying to cheat each other? It's not worth it, it's extremely not worth it!"
Xiao Chenyan was amused by her.
"Are you talking business with me?" He couldn't help but reach out and tap her on the forehead.
Qing Wu glared at him, put her hands behind her back, and said with a serious look: "Think carefully about whether what I said is right or not. The world is so fascinating, why should you love only one flower?"
“Young man, look around more, there are always better places to go.”
Xiao Chenyan's head started to hurt again.
"Yes, that makes sense." He nodded: "Have you finished reciting the sutra, Master?"
Qing Wu's power was instantly broken, and she turned back into a grinning evil female ghost.
"Xiao Yantai, you are such a stubborn and stubborn person!"
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Just wait, your love for me is fruitless, and sooner or later you will get your comeuppance, and you will be in big trouble!"
"Well, now I know. Don't underestimate yourself."
Qing Wu: “…”
Forget it, I'm tired, let it be destroyed.
"Don't you have something to do?" The man looked at her calmly, "Still?"
The ghost girl sighed tiredly: "That's it."
"Come on, come back sooner rather than later."
Qing Wu’s expression is hard to describe.
Xiao Chenyan rubbed her head and couldn't help laughing: "Think of other excuses to reject me next time, sloppy."
"You are beyond help." Qing Wu said this and ran away in big strides.
Only after she was out of Xiao Chenyan's sight did Qing Wu let out a long sigh towards the sky.
"Why won't he listen?"
Judge Pen: "Yes, why is Yantai so depressed?"
The Judge's Pen instantly appeared in Qingwu's hand. She had a fierce look in her eyes, and the Judge's Pen immediately cried out, "It hurts, it hurts, it's going to break, it's going to break!"
Qing Wu: "I can scold myself, but you dare to scold me?"
Judge's Pen:Ծ‸Ծ
Awu, you are such a bad ghost! The officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps!
"Let's be ghosts and not talk nonsense. What do you think, you bad ghost? I feel that Yan Tai is serious."
"I'm scared because he's really serious..." Qing Wu walked out, muttering to herself, with a flash of emotion in her eyes.
Judge Pen: "I feel like you're a bit weird too. You don't seem to have no feelings for him when you fall in love with him, but you don't have any feelings for him at all. Logically, you shouldn't be emotional."
Qing Wu didn't answer, but a dark light flashed in her eyes.
Yes, she should be heartless and emotionless.
As a god-given underworld official, you are destined to be ruthless. If you have feelings, you will develop selfish desires.
"Besides, why did it take you so long to refine that Soul-Replenishing Needle?" Judge Pen continued to grumble: "With your strength, that thing shouldn't be that difficult to refine, right?"
A hint of mockery flashed across Qing Wu's eyes.
Suddenly, "Do you know why the old man is in seclusion and won't come out?"
"Why?" Judge Pen was curious.
"Because there is something new in the old man's body." Qing Wu had a smile on her face, but it inexplicably made the Judge's Pen feel a little scared, and it suddenly didn't dare to ask any further.
"The netherworld controls the fate of mortals and the cycle of cause and effect, but it is difficult to distinguish good from evil and to weigh the difference between good and evil. Immortals and gods kill the three corpses, and people have seven emotions and six desires. The essence of the netherworld ghosts is the most concentrated greed, anger, ignorance and various delusions in the world."
"Once you have desires, you will develop obsessions, and it will be difficult to give in."
"Why do you think I am the God of the Underworld? Why was I born as the Princess of the Underworld?"
Judge Pen's voice was a little stuttering: "Isn't it because of you, Awu... You were born in the underworld, were you born like this?"
"Yes, you also know that I was born in the underworld." Qing Wu's eyes were full of human flavor: "So I was born with a responsibility that I couldn't cut off and give up. Coming to the human world is already a reckless act."
"After returning to the underworld in my previous life, I thought my tribulations were over. But now that I'm back in the human world, I realize that everything is just beginning."
Qing Wu twitched her lips, "Guess what will happen if I really fall in love with you and have selfish desires?"
The judge's pen was silent, not daring to even think about the outcome.
If that were the case, the order below would be disrupted, and regardless of Qing Wu's fate, the ghost kings in the underworld would first have to eliminate the source of evil that had disturbed Qing Wu's heart.
At that time, the first person to be killed was Xiao Chenyan!
He will face the entire underworld of evil.
Qing Wu was born with supreme ghost power, but her power is also her shackles.
This is also the reason for the contradictions between her words and her friends after she returned to the human world. Doesn't she want to be honest with her old friends?
I just want to.
She can see the fate of other people and everything around her, but she cannot see into herself. However, as she becomes more and more entangled with Xiao Chenyan, especially after they form a covenant, she can occasionally "foresee" the future.
Just like when they were in Nanling, she had that ominous feeling in her heart before Xiao Chenyan confessed his love to her.
She denied time and again that she was Yun Qingwu from the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion, just because she didn't want that premonition to come true.
And when Xiao Chenyan was about to express his feelings to her.
Qing Wu clearly felt the restraint of the shackles around her body. It was a warning from the underworld that she was destined to belong to the netherworld...
If she falls in love, it would be a betrayal and she would be retaliated against.
And Xiao Chenyan will be regarded as an enemy by the entire underworld.
If Xiao Chenyan was really just an ordinary person, and she was a little more selfish and only treated him as husband and wife for this short life, then things would be simple. With her ability, she could take advantage of this loophole.
But Xiao Chenyan is not...
His identity and background must be complicated, otherwise the underworld would not be so alert.
Qing Wu rubbed her brows and said, "Mi Yan left this needle behind. I don't know if it was an accident or if that chicken had foreseen it. It actually helped me a little."
There was a faint aura on that needle, which just concealed the bond between her and Xiao Chenyan. This was also one of the reasons why Qing Wu was hesitant to completely refine that needle.
The judge's pen is becoming more and more confused.
"Um... Ah Wu, you just said that something has grown inside Grandpa Fujun's body... Could it be that you mean that he has developed a love thread?"
Qing Wu curled her lips: "Oh, your brain is working quickly now."
The judge's pen is numb, it regrets it! Can it apply for a new brain? It doesn't want to know these secrets!
