500: Nearly Had a Heart Attack

By the time Tian Ya felt the shove, it was too late, and he was inside before he could react.

He only had time to hear Feng Wu say,” Ming Xi told you to leave,” before the passage closed behind him.

Tian Ya had a powerful urge to complain.
Did this girl forget? Ming Xi had told her to leave too!

Indeed, Feng Wu did forget – selective memory.
She forgot the parts she didn’t want to follow.

Ming Xi only realized Feng Wu was still there after the passage had closed.
Several emotions hit him.
He was shocked, happy, but also annoyed.

He clearly told her to leave.
Did she not realize what she would face by staying behind?

He couldn’t stay angry though.
His heart softened when confronted with the persistence in her eyes.

“Ming Xi, don’t be afraid.
I am with you.” Feng Wu said seriously as she looked at him fighting.

“Why are you willing to stay with him?” The little girl stopped attacking for a moment, her eyes full of envy and curiosity.
She wondered why the girl human was willing to stay with the golden-haired man.
Was it because he was good looking?

Even a spirit like her could tell he was really, really fine.
Well at least she had never seen anyone look as good as him in all her thousand years.

“He is the father of my son, of course I want to be with him.” Feng Wu answered the little girl seriously.

Master had said a wife and husband must not separate.
And since Ming Xi was Little Bun’s father, she had to be Ming Xi’s wife and him and her husband.
Therefore, obviously they had to remain together.

Besides all that, she was simply unwilling to leave him alone at this time.

“Is that so?” The little girl tilted her head in confusion.

“Yes.” Feng Wu nodded.

“Then are you willing to stay with me?” The little girl’s eyes were full of anticipation.

“I don’t want to.” Feng Wu shook her head and answered honestly.
Xiao Ye[notes] was still with the vice principal and she was looking forward to seeing him again.

The little girl’s face sank and her face stopped looking cute.
Now it was cold.
“Even if you don’t want to, you’ll still stay in the painting and accompany me forever.

Without another word, she began attacking again, but this time she was focused on Feng Wu.
Feng Wu’s refusal had apparently made her angry.

Ming Xi helped Feng Wu block most of the attacks.
Even if Feng Wu couldn’t do anything to the little spirit girl, she could still dodge and evade.

The long-forgotten, middle-aged man stood to the side watching the scene anxiously.
He knew nothing he said would matter.

Sweat dripped from Ming Xi’s forehead.
He struggled to block her attacks.
He wasn’t a necromancer, and it was hard for him to fight the little girl spirit.

Most of his attacks were actually defensive blocks.

The little girl sneered and increased the speed of her attacks.
She took advantage of a gap in Ming Xi’s defense and patted Feng Wu.

Ming Xi’s heart nearly stopped.
He knew the consequences of that little pat.
He was heartbroken when he thought about Feng Wu turning into ice and her soul being sealed in a painting.

Just when he thought he was about to watch a tragedy unfold, an inexplicable thing happened.

The little spirit girl let out an ear-piercing scream filled with panic.

A bang and a scream later and she disappeared to the living room as a stream of light as though something terrifying was chasing after her and she had to escape as fast as she could.

What? Ming Xi was speechless.
What just happened? Did Xiao Chun wake up?

Of course Xiao Chun was still asleep.
How could he wake up so quickly? It was Pure Flame.[notes] As Xiao Chun’s good friend, she couldn’t let something happen to Feng Wu.
She knew how much he liked Feng Wu.
So naturally when she realized Feng Wu’s life was in danger, she didn’t hesitate to strike.
The result was the moment the little spirit girl touched Feng Wu, Pure Flame was on her like a light and gave her a serious burn.

Who knew how many people the little girl had already killed.
The sins on her body were deep, so the moment Pure Flame touched her, it felt like the fires of hell were burning her.
No wonder she screamed like mad.

Feng Wu had thought she was a goner.
The sensation of dying left her feeling cold.
She had encountered death before, but it had never been as terrifying as this.
Honestly, her heart nearly stopped.

“Pure Flame! Thank you!” Feng Wu knew who had rescued her so she thanked her savior wholeheartedly.

Pure Flame, who had materialized as a little guy, nodded before disappearing back into Xiao Chun’s body.[notes]

Pure Flame wasn’t like Xiao Chun.
She did not recognize Feng Wu as her master, but remained by Feng Wu’s side because she was good friends with Xiao Chun.

Pure Flame would help if Feng Wu was in danger, but Feng Wu couldn’t tell Pure Flame what to do.

“Xiao Wu!” Ming Xi’s heart nearly stopped for a moment.
He had been so scared.
By the time he came back to his senses, his back had been soaked with sweat.
He stepped forward and pulled Feng Wu into his arms.
His heartbeat only slowed down after feeling the warmth from her body.

“Ming Xi. . .  it hurts.” Feng Wu pushed back at Ming Xi uncomfortably.
So tight.
It was hard to breathe.
Feng Wu thought ignorantly in her heart, but her face was still as stiff as ever.

“I’m sorry.
I hurt you.” Ming Xi coughed before releasing her slowly.
That moment just now, his heart nearly stopping, he did not want to repeat it ever again.

The surrounding walls were icy cold so he pulled Feng Wu to his side.
The little girl fled, but they didn’t know when she would return, so they had to stay on guard.

“Come here.
I want to ask you something.” Ming Xi looked at the middle-aged man hiding in the corner.

“What. . .  what did you want to ask?” He didn’t have extraordinary talent like the young miss who had cultivated for over a thousand years.
Spirits had a much harder time cultivating than their human counterparts.

Because he had been bullied by the young miss for so long, he never got the chance to improve his strength.
He had survived for over a thousand years but was still so incredibly weak.

“The child, where are her parents? Why do we not see them here?” This had been puzzling Ming Xi.
The dollmaker was there, so why weren’t her parents?”

“Oh them? The children ate them.” He had wanted the children to take revenge with their own hands when he released them all those years ago.
He knew they would retaliate and kill him, so he had been ready to die.

He never expected the children to be so cruel as to not only tear apart everyone in the mansion but to also devour their souls as well.

After that, the young miss had wanted to keep him to play with, so that was why his soul was still around in the weak condition it was in.
