Chapter 41 Thoughts in the Coffin
A full moon floated in the dark sky, most of it obscured by murky clouds, making the sky appear even more eerie and dark.
In the secret room of the Nine Gates, the lights were flickering faintly, emitting a soft glow.
At this time, Ming Yan had his hair tied up high, and his long hair like flowing water gently brushed behind his back. He tilted his head slightly, leaned his back against the dark wall, and smiled inexplicably. His beauty, regardless of gender, gave people a thrilling charm.
At this moment, his face was serious, and he was carefully looking at the girl in the crystal coffin. "Her hair was a little yellow. When the breeze blew, I could seem to smell the faint fragrance of flowers and plants on her hair. Her neat bangs were neatly attached to her forehead, her eyebrows were slightly curved, and her gentle eyes were like stars in the Milky Way. When I got closer, I could vaguely see her long and thick eyelashes, but at this moment, she was quietly closing her eyes, resting gently like a butterfly's wings. Her nose was small and cute, her lips were pink and cute, and her skin was white, smooth and morbidly delicate, like the best mutton-fat jade, beautiful but slightly cold."
Ming Yan seemed to be bewitched. He reached out his hand and gently stroked the face of the girl in the coffin, as if he was admiring a piece of work of art.
The girl's hands were slender and flawless, and slightly cold, as if they were naturally without temperature, which made people feel chilled.
The corners of his mouth rippled slightly: "Girl, we meet again. When I first saw you, you were sleeping soundly. You are really a lazy cat. But why you? No wonder the ancient god Xi Ye is also fascinated by you..."
"Why you..." While muttering to himself, he suddenly stretched out his right hand and pinched the throat of the girl in the coffin. As her airway was blocked, the woman immediately opened her mouth.
Mingyan slowly moved down, and then traces of blood were seen flowing out from the corners of Mingyan's mouth.
Ming Yan frowned in pain, took a deep breath, clasped his palms together slightly, and tried his best to calm his fluctuating emotions.
After about an hour, when mist slowly emerged from above his head, Ming Yan gently opened his eyes.
I just sucked a mouthful of this girl's blood, and my Qi started to flow backwards. Could it be that I was also bewitched by this girl like that God of War...
After a long time, the door of the secret room slowly rose, and Ming Yan walked out with a rare chaotic emotion and a tired step.
Hai Xing'er, who had been waiting for a long time, came forward like a ghost and said, "How can the Sect Master be so exhausted after practicing in seclusion today?"
After saying this, a pair of jade hands wrapped around Ming Yan's arms like a water snake, massaging and kneading them gently: "Master, since you killed that bad woman, the whole world has become much quieter."
Mingyan said nothing, his eyes sparkling with tiredness.
You say this bad woman, what's so good about a young girl like her, that there are so many men in the world who like her.
"She has a name." Ming Yan's words were neither light nor heavy, but they sounded particularly cold.
Hai Xing'er was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Of course I know this. The Sect Master's tone today was so cold. Well, well, this Yang Baitian is really annoying. He won't let me scold him even though he's dead."
Hearing Yang Baitian's words, Ming Yan's brows furrowed slightly, but waves of emotion arose in his heart, layer upon layer, and could not be dispelled.
In the hall, when Hai Xing'er was about to continue making noise, she was frightened by Ming Yan's cold eyes.
I don't know how long it took, but I saw the secret guard come forward and whisper in his ear, and Ming Yan's slightly closed eyes twitched slightly.
The secret guard whispered, "Is the Sect Master in good health?"
Ming Yan raised his hand to indicate that there was no need to worry, but he was shocked in his heart: "Sure enough, he is here."
Haixing'er's eyebrows moved slightly, but her emotions could not be seen.
"He's here, why don't you go and see him?" Ming Yan chuckled.
Hai Xing'er looked at Ming Yan in disbelief, as if she wanted to confirm the facts.
"You don't have to doubt it. The god of war you want to see day and night is here." Ming Yan stretched lazily.
Hai Xing'er said coldly: "An enemy, he will come to avenge that bad woman after all."
"He is really obsessed with revenge for a dead person." Ming Yan said with his eyes slightly closed.
Hai Xing'er's heart ached, and the strength in her hands inexplicably became heavier.
Ming Yan snorted coldly: "I would like to see how this ancient god finds his wife. But, don't you want to meet him?"
Hai Xing'er smiled sarcastically: "Now that Yang Bai Tian is dead, my hatred has faded a lot." "You want to kill her just for Xi Ye, but now you are different from before. It seems that this woman's love is not so true." Ming Yan flicked his pair of flawless white hands, as if he was admiring a beautiful work of art.
"I don't think the sect leader is really sincere towards me." Hai Xing'er was a little unhappy.
"Don't forget that this is a cooperation." Ming Yan's words were particularly cold.
Hai Xing'er's expression changed slightly.
"Forget it, I'd better go and take a look. It may be difficult to take this giant Buddha away." Ming Yan straightened his clothes and disappeared from sight.
Hai Xing'er followed him out.
At this time, Xi Ye was wearing a crescent-white brocade robe, with a thin figure, a picturesque face, and gentle eyes. He looked indescribably graceful and elegant, yet a little haggard.
"How can an ancient god become so haggard for a witch?" The bitterness in Hai Xing'er's heart suddenly choked in her throat.
Seeing Mingyan appear, Xiye clasped his fists and said: Sorry for disturbing the Nine Gates Master.
Ming Yan replied: "I don't know where the God of War is going."
"It's not a big deal, it's my wife's business." Xi Ye nodded slightly.
Ming Yan's peach blossom eyes were rolling, and he secretly cried out in his heart that something was wrong. He responded randomly: "The good story between the God of War and his wife has spread throughout the fairy world and the human world, which is enviable. Unfortunately, the wife's fairy-like appearance has never been made public. The God of War is visiting my humble home today. I wonder if there is anything important?"
"My wife is lovely and likes to travel around. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you. I think your tendons and veins are damaged. If you take the magic herb, you will be back to normal within three days." Xi Ye raised his palm in the air, and a human-shaped magic herb appeared in front of Xi Ye.
Ming Yan was very surprised that this God of War, whom everyone said was cold and aloof, not only came to visit him for his wife's sake, but he even lowered himself to give him this magical herb. It was just as the rumors in the fairy world said, he was truly a man of affection and righteousness.
At this time, the two of them inevitably have their own concerns and feelings.
Ming Yan chuckled and clasped his fists in thanks, saying, "Everyone says that the God of War is a true man of heaven and earth, and it is indeed true."
Xi Ye clasped his fists and smiled indifferently at him. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a few mocking voices.
They both looked back in surprise.
Hai Xing'er was full of resentment and sneered, "Why, it's been so many reincarnations, and you still want to lose your wife who is only a few years old? I think you, the God of War, are not doing enough to protect your wife."
"Oh, is this the sect leader's wife?" Xi Ye asked calmly.
Ming Yan's pretty face was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help but glance at Hai Xing'er with some annoyance: "The God of War misunderstood, this fairy was injured and temporarily stayed in my house. How come, it seems that she and the God of War are old acquaintances."
Xi Ye clasped his fists and said: "I have been fighting in all directions, and in my spare time I have been traveling with my wife, so I have no chance to meet the fairies.
After saying this, he bowed to Ming Yan and said goodbye. He apologized for bothering him today and said there was a long way to go. Then he disappeared from everyone's sight.
At this time, Hai Xing'er was already overwhelmed by love and hatred, and she didn't care about Ming Yan's indifferent look. She asked loudly to Xi Ye who disappeared: "Xi Ye, you are really so ruthless to me, don't blame me."
With a "pop" sound, Haixing'er covered her cheek.
Ming Yan's rosy face now showed only a stern expression: "How dare you talk nonsense in front of the God of War? Don't forget that this is in the Nine Gates. Don't cause trouble for me."
Hai Xing'er covered her cheeks and said bitterly: "Xi Ye didn't find anything at all, how could he guess that you killed her?"
"Now that Yang Baitian is dead, what else do you have to worry about? If you want to win a man's heart, it's not a good idea to throw a tantrum." Ming Yan's voice was like ice and snow in the cold winter, without a trace of warmth.
Watching Hai Xing'er enter the inner room, Ming Yan's heart could no longer remain calm. Hai Xing'er's untimely appearance had obviously made the God of War suspicious, and no one knew what Yang Baitian was doing now, and Hai Xing'er must not be allowed to know. Hai Xing'er had to be used well as a chess piece.
