C125 (1/2)
Madam Xu was dumbstruck. She had imagined that young lady, who had just lost her husband, would be miserable and weak, helpless and vulnerable to others. In the past, Mu Xiaowan had been in her hands for more than ten years, and every time she heard her voice, she would tremble.
But right now, it was obvious that Xiaowan still had not gotten over her anger. She bent down and grabbed Madam Xu's neck, scaring him so much that she grabbed at her and asked her to let go.
However, her neck was being pinched so tightly that she couldn't breathe, she couldn't care less and could only desperately break Xiaowan's hand, struggling to say: ”You little slut, let me go, let me go … …”
”Do you remember? If I see you again, I will definitely make you meet the King of Hell. ”Next time you see me, stay away from me. Don't even let me see you.” Xiaowan's entire body was filled with a ruthless aura, as though she had lost control of it, she roared, ”Those who want to live, scram.”
Madam Xu rolled on the ground, holding onto her neck with much difficulty as she gasped for breath and coughed, trembling as she looked at Xiaowan.
This person no longer had his old shadow, nor did he look like a dead man's wife. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent, almost like a devil.
Uncle Biao walked up and pulled Madam Xu up like a little chick and threw him out of the door. She rolled a few times, then crawled up from the ground while crying and wailing.
Xiaowan was so angry that she moved up and down, gasping for breath. Little Pei came out from nowhere and climbed up the hem of her skirt. Xiaowan carried him in her arms, and his son's fat little hands touched her chest.
”Mother isn't angry. Mother, don't be angry.” Little Pei earnestly comforted his mother. His eyes were sparkling and translucent, a single tear fell onto the hem of Xiaowan's clothes. In that moment, the ruthless aura around her body dissipated.
”Little Pei...” Xiaowan felt very tired, he couldn't even hold her son anymore, so he could only sit to the side and rub her son's head, ”Mother scared Little Pei, is that right? Little Pei isn't afraid, Mother wouldn't do that to you.”
However, her son comforted her gently and helped her calm down. He said in a baby voice, ”Mother and Little Pei.”
The scene just now was in the eyes of both the Uncle Biao and the Aunt Zhang. The Xiaowan seemed to have become a completely different person. Hatred? Would there be a day when she would be completely engulfed by this hostility?
However, Aunt Zhang said to Uncle Biao, ”How does she have to endure the pain of killing his husband? When that day comes, it will be our fate.
As for the fact that the Madam Xu had crawled and rolled back to Qingling Village, when the people nearby saw her in such a sorry state, they all knew that Ling Xiao Inn was not to be trifled with.
Just like this, everyone spread rumors and added fuel to the fire. For a while, all sorts of rumors were spread. The people in the town had first been splashed with cold water by the county magistrate, and now they heard that the people in the inn were not to be trifled with.
Little Pei was obedient and considerate, the Xiaowan felt that it was not that she was taking care of his son, but rather his son taking care of her. However, she couldn't rely on Little Pei, nor could she force him to fear.
”Mother seemed to have no reason today. She scattered all the hatred in her heart onto that person. She only wants some silver. Why would I want it?” Seeing that her son was sleeping soundly, Xiaowan said to herself, ”Mother knows, once the evil in my heart is released, I will not be able to control it. Little Pei, are you very worried for Mother?”
Little Pei could hear her, but he pretended to be fast asleep.
”Little Pei, mother will properly control his emotions. ”Otherwise, as time passes, I will change and go to see your father on the Road to River Styx. He won't be able to recognize me.” Xiaowan buried her face in her son's small arms and looked at the sweet scent of milk.
”Little Pei, I'm sorry. Mother frightened you.” ”But no matter what, Mother will protect you, protect the inn, protect Grandma and Aunt, Mother is your father's woman, I am Ling Chaofeng's woman.”
Xiaowan closed her eyes as she muttered in her heart, ”Husband, will you fall asleep?”
This kind of call could be heard thousands of miles away. Although Ling Chaofeng couldn't hear what his wife was saying clearly, he could clearly feel the sorrow, joy, and anger that came late at night.
This was a very strange thing, this life was already over, he should cut off this previous relationship, and have nothing to do with Mu Xiaowan anymore.
It was as if he had watched over the lives of others, and it had nothing to do with him. The people he had met in that lifetime, no matter what, would never affect his emotions again.
”Monster!”
The Chaofeng who was crouching on the Announcement Hall could see all six paths clearly, and could see any movement within the imperial capital's capital. At that moment, he only saw a gust of demonic wind pass through the main hall, attaching onto a Palace Maid who was holding tea, heading towards the Qingming Pavilion.
Ling Chaofeng flew out, pulling the monster away from Palace Maid and stepped on it. This was a fox spirit that had thousands of years of cultivation, it was able to break through heaven's weather and disturb the Emperor's mind.
”A thousand years of cultivation is in ruins. Bastard, die!” Just as Ling Chaofeng was about to tear the demon spawn into pieces, a gust of wind blew past.
He kindly said to his brother, ”Penglai Island is short of a man who cleans the back mountains. I will take him there. She is not a bad person, she just likes to play.”
Ling Chaofeng cupped his fists: ”Please punish this demon.” After he finished speaking, he immediately returned back onto the overhang of the Announcement Hall.
When the Captive Cow arrived and saw that his brother was trapped inside the stone statue, he could not bear it anymore and said: ”Chaofeng, I wonder if you could sense that your relationship has not been broken off in this life.”
Ling Chaofeng replied in a heavy voice, ”Yes.”
The Captive Cow said: ”Even though your soul has returned to your Immortal body and you have been demoted to the mortal world to guard the Sovereign King, your fate has not ended. Your ninth life does not seem to have ended yet.”
