Chapter 298 2 (1/2)

She is my Reverse Scale

When he shifted his gaze to Xi Ran, his eyes suddenly turned cold.

He did not know why this silly loli would decide to marry him all of a sudden. Neither does he know why she argued with the female corpse. If it was just a joke, he would at most have a laugh and forget all about it. But just now, Xi Ran clearly intended to harm the female corpse! Even though both of their strength was almost on the same level and Xi Ran’s technique would never really hurt the female corpse, she still acted in the end. Because of that, Ning Fan was unable to tolerate her anymore.

“She is my wife. Anyone who hurts her shall die!”

Xi Ran felt aggrieved. In her mind, she was unable to understand why Ning Fan would take the female corpse’s side but not hers in their dispute while looking at her with a cold, indifferent look as if he was staring at a stranger.

Unfortunately, she did not know that if it was not because of Wu Yan, he would have killed her because of the earlier matter where she tried to hurt the female corpse!

The female corpse was Ning Fan’s reverse scale, be it in this life or his previous one!

Without showing much concern to Xi Ran’s feelings, Ning Fan’s gaze eventually landed on Yue Lingkong and his eyes became frigid cold.

“There will be no next time!”

As a matter of fact, this fight was instigated by Yue Lingkong who was bored to the extreme. However, Ning Fan did not care about how elevated her identity was in the past or how domineering her attitude was. As long as she was in his hands, she was not allowed to create anymore troubles for him.

“Hmmph…”

Yue Lingkong’s snorted lightly with a diminished aura. Despite that, she did not dare to utter any words. The current Ning Fan gave her an extremely solemn feeling. If they were to be in the usual times where there were less tension, she would have cracked a joke. But now, Ning Fan had actually revealed his killing intent.

In the past, Yue Lingkong thought that the female corpse was merely a refined corpse to Ning Fan, even though he was quite doting on her. She had never expected that that woman had such a significant position within his heart.

With her tyrannical behavior, she should have felt displeased after being reprimanded by Ning Fan. But now, her heart felt an unusual feeling other than dissatisfaction for the first time.

It was the feeling of admiration.

She admired the female corpse for being able to make a devil lord who was cruel and cold to reveal such a violent killing intent.

In the past, Yue Lingkong only had the ambition of dominating the entire Internal Endless Sea. There was not a single moment where she would ponder over the affairs between men and women. Moreover, when she was plucked by Ning Fan, she only thought that she was just being poked by a cucumber. Her former self would never have admired a woman who was being loved and doted upon.

Wu Yan gently lowered her head and sighed. The first time when her heart was moved by Ning Fan was when he was infuriated for Lu Wan’er after finding out she was injured by others. There was not a romantic theme where gentle breeze was blowing, bringing flowers and snow across the sky under the moonlight. There was not a romantic scene where the man hugged his woman, immersing themselves in long-lasting love. There was only a cold but solemn vow.

“She is my wife. Anyone who harms her shall die!”

“Being able to become his wife is truly a bliss…” Wu Yan laughed at herself. She knew that she was not going to have the honor and chance for that.

“Light…Don’t…be…angry…She’s…my…friend…”

The female corpse slightly stood in front of Xi Ran, blocking her away from Ning Fan as if she was worried that he might suddenly do something ruthless.

Upon seeing what happened before her eyes, Xi Ran was stunned. It was way beyond her expectations to think that the female corpse who had been squabbling with her would be so protective of her. Feeling ashamed of herself, she pursed her lips so tightly that it almost looked like an earthworm and then spoke with a low voice.

“I’m sorry…”

The female corpse shook her head and forced a smile.

“No…argue…let’s…play…”

Suddenly, she turned her head to Ning Fan and pleaded for the first time.

“Light…don’t…hurt…her…”

“Okay…”

Feeling slightly upset, he looked at the female corpse compassionately and stroked her hair.

“Mm. I won’t hurt her.”

You were this silly in your previous life. Falling in love with a butterfly and giving up everything for it.

Your silliness still has not changed in this life. Just to save a dying young man, you gave up your chastity.

Even though you have become a corpse and had lost your spiritual intelligence, abandoned your Sea of Consciousness and lost your memories, you still would forgive your enemies, showing compassion to them…

You always make an embroidery of a pair of butterflies which are flying side by side… Despite forgetting everything from your previous life, you still remembered that you are waiting for a person, a person who would transform from a butterfly; a person whom you would marry; a person whom you decided to save your chastity for… You still remember these but you don’t recall that I… was the butterfly…

A deathly silence fell upon the atmosphere within the abode. Each and every one present at the place harbored their own thoughts.

Eventually, Ning Fan turned his gaze to Xi Ran and said, “As you can see, I am a merciless person who kill without batting an eyelid. Do you still want to marry me?”

“No…I don’t want to…” Xi Ran hurriedly shook her head like a pellet drum. She was literally scared.
