The surroundings were still shaking. After an unknown amount of time, the shifting formation finally stopped. Bi Xie moved her little head and whispered, "Husband, don't hug me so tightly, I... I feel like throwing up..."
Ji Gui remained motionless, as if he were lost in some kind of fog.
Bi Xie called out again, her voice trembling with unease, "Husband..."
Ji Gui clearly heard this sound, because Bi Xie felt the man's hand holding the back of her head tremble.
"Husband, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly not talking?" Bi Xie's voice was very soft, but in this enclosed space, even the softest voice was amplified several times.
Suddenly pushed away, Bi Xie's eyes first showed confusion, then astonishment.
Ji Gui stared at Bi Xie silently for a long time.
Thin lips and scarlet eyes blended into one color. Slightly, the crimson lips curled up slightly, and his voice carried a dangerous undercurrent, "My lady, who are you looking at through me?"
Bi Xie's heart skipped a beat.
I felt a tightness in my chest.
Staring in shock at his blood-red eyes, it felt as if their very souls were being drawn into that crimson hue.
Ji Gui's expression grew increasingly gloomy, his handsome face covered in frost, and his once radiant peach blossom eyes now turned into a deep, blood-red sea, staring coldly at the woman before him.
Suddenly, he grabbed Bi Xie's arm, pulled her close, his handsome face near hers, his blood-red, magma-like eyes fixed on her, and roared, "I'm asking you, who are you looking at through me! Speak!"
Bi Xie opened his lips, and this was the first time in this world that Ji Gui had shown such a furious expression.
When he personally killed his scumbag master at the Immortal Peak, his expression was as calm as still water. When the divine birds welcomed the bride, and a hundred flowers paved the way, and when seven Nascent Soul True Monarchs self-destructed in front of him to stop him from marrying her, he only frowned slightly.
But at this moment, his anger was fully displayed on his face. His hands were bent into a bow shape and trembling slightly, as he tried his best to control himself from hurting her.
"My lady, when have you ever lost me? And who was the one you lost?" The man's voice was sinister and cold.
It seemed that as long as she uttered that name, he would search high and low, turn the world upside down, and find that person to tear her to pieces!
“Ji Gui, I…” Bi Xie wanted to slap herself. She had indeed thought of the burial, but she did not expect Ji Gui to be so sensitive that he had noticed it.
The nonsense he could spout at will suddenly caught in his throat when he met those eyes that were filled with two wisps of blood.
Or perhaps it wasn't just this once. From the moment she first discovered his eyes had turned bloodshot, and from the strange things she said on their wedding night, perhaps Ji Gui had already become suspicious.
Today, the doubts that had been building up in his heart finally erupted!
She had always been pampered by him and was too comfortable, so much so that she forgot that once the big boss of each world turned evil, he would be an extremely abnormal being.
Bi Xie's legs went weak. Her wrists had been tightened uncontrollably by Ji Gui. Taking advantage of the pain, she desperately squeezed out a few drops of tears.
She looked at him pitifully, "Husband, I wasn't looking at anyone. I was just wondering why your eyes had turned red again. You didn't drink my blood."
"Master!" Ji Gui's dark and deep eyes locked onto hers, and he called out to her with a hint of anger.
"In Master's eyes, is Ji Gui very foolish? Master tells me to be a good person, so I am a good person; Master tells me not to kill, so I do not kill; Master tells me not to kill the innocent, so I endure being injured by righteous cultivators and always spare their lives—"
"Master, do you know how hard I've been enduring this?" Ji Gui's voice suddenly changed, becoming low and suppressed, which made Bi Xie's heart tremble.
His voice was naturally cold, but in front of his favorite master, he had to pretend to be obedient and docile. She wanted an obedient, sensible, and kind-hearted disciple, and he did as she wished!
He could indulge her in everything, except for her heart.
Her heart should only be devoted to him, and there should be no one else in her eyes!
"Ji Gui, ouch...it hurts!" Bi Xie's wrist was almost broken, and this time the pain brought tears to his eyes.
This time, however, her tears did not earn her the man's tender care. Her bloodshot eyes were filled with madness and obsession. "Master, why? Am I not good enough to you? Why do I feel like you're not looking at me when you look at me!"
"Tell me, what exactly did you mean by having that ghost face observe who the man you spent the night with was? Tell me!"
His strength increased, and the blood in his eyes grew increasingly intense, the crimson color like the claws of an abyss, threatening to devour Bi Xie entirely.
"Ji Gui, let me go, and I'll tell you everything you want to know!" Bi Xie had no choice but to circulate his spiritual energy to protect his wrist from being broken.
Ji Gui paused, staring at the woman's slightly red eyes and tears on her face. His pupils flashed with various expressions, including violence, irritability, and regret.
Her thin lips parted slightly, then tightened again in an instant.
But he withdrew his hand, his gaze lingering for a moment on her red and swollen wrist before he frowned and quickly looked away, saying coldly, "You can say that, but I may not believe you anymore, Master. Have I been too lenient with you before?"
"You've become so lawless because of your indulgence, treating me like a plaything under your skirt?"
Bi Xie's heart skipped a beat.
Oh no, they're even referring to themselves as "this one" now!
She really wanted to retort, "Didn't you say you wanted to be my devoted follower? What's the difference between a devoted follower and a plaything?! Damn it, you change your mind faster than flipping through a book!"
But he only dared to mutter this to himself; Bi Xie's face was still clouded with sorrow, and tears streamed down his face as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Seeing her like this, Ji Gui felt a sudden surge of irritation rise within his violent and turbulent heart.
Why are you crying? She's the one who wronged him!
Holding him, yet her mind was on another man. Just for that, he wanted nothing more than to tear her and that other man to shreds!
Bi Xie lowered her head, casually wiping away her tears with her sleeve, and puffed out her small chest. "Yes, I admit it. Before you, I liked someone else..."
A single sentence made Ji Gui's handsome face turn so cold it was almost as if ice crystals could form.
Bi Xie ignored him and continued confidently, "So what! Who can't have a first love? My first love was more handsome than you, gentler than you, and knew how to cherish me better than you. He was simple-minded, unlike you who pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger, and ended up eating your own master!"
Ji Gui's face darkened.
Is first love what he understands it to be literally?
Bi Xie continued, sobbing, "I just like him, so what! He's better than you in every way. If he were still here, I would never—"
