Poor her she was bound by him. What’s worst was this old man seemed to have swallowed iron weight that she couldn’t move him at all. Su Zimo now dared not to do anything but curse Mu Yunxuan in her heart. She was afraid to be beaten by him. His strength was different from ordinary people. Even her mouth couldn’t subdue him.

“Woman, you are wrong again, this lord is not bullying you. According to the law, you are my wife. It’s only natural to cultivate our feelings. Our heart is linked as one.”

When he thought that she was his wife, his heart became even more excited. Her appearance made him feel like his boring life became colorful.

“Hmph! We are ghost husband and wife, but we are strangers now that we are alive. Mu Yunxuan, I’m telling you, in this life, you better dispel this thought of yours. Aren’t you afraid to be hated by your charming Miss Ling Qiushui?”

“What? You’re jealous.” The smile in Mu Yunxuan’s face never disappeared. He had never felt like this before. His mood had never been this comfortable.

“Mu Yunxuan, don’t pull the grass to lead the snake, you might have a bitter life. Send be back quickly.”

Su Zimo doesn’t want to spend time with Mu Yunxuan. What was he’s saying? Why would she be jealous? She hated him, she doesn’t have any feelings for him.

“You go to Jiuhuashan with this lord first.”

Mu Yunxuan doesn’t feel any slight anger. Today, for the first time in his life, he was slapped by a woman. But he was not only angry but feeling a bit happy. He never thought he will enjoy being abused.

While the two were bickering, they have arrived on top of the Jiuhuashan.

“Nine wings, go down.”

“Yes, master.”

By the time the nine-winged golden dragon landed on the open space, the sky was already getting dark.

Seeing the sky gradually darkening, fear also gradually rose in Su Zimo’s heart. Her facial expression became more and more ugly. As the voices of magical beast sounded in the surroundings, her body trembled nonstop.

Since she fell off the cliff at that time, she stayed alone the whole night in the darkness. And because she was injured and couldn’t move, she feared to be swallowed by the beast.

“What’s wrong?”

After the nine-winged golden dragon went back to his dantian, Mu Yunxuan looked back and saw Su Zimo’s abnormal facial expression.

“Send, send me back now, I, I don’t want to stay here.”

Su Zimo said while stuttering as she wrapped her arms around her shoulders. Even up to now, her heart still remembered the fear and helplessness she experienced at that time.

“Aren’t you hungry? There are a lot of delicious wild fruits here, so I brought you here.”

“I don’t want to eat!” Su Zimo looked up and grabbed her mask in Mu Yunxuan’s hand, then put it on her face.

“Fire Phoenix.”

Her voice hasn’t completely fallen, but Su Zimo already sitting on a red phoenix.

“A fairy demon of heaven, fire phoenix?”

Mu Yunxuan looked at Su Zimo in surprise, she made a contract with the flame phoenix beast?

“Mu Yunxuan, you and I are strangers. I don’t want you to appear in front of us, mother and child again.”

As soon as she finished, she went away with full of determination.

“Damn woman, are you leaving like this? We are not strangers. Su Zimo, the moment you appear in front of me, we can no longer be strangers.” Mu Yunxuan glared at Su Zimo’s departing figure. He clenched his fist in anger, but he had some doubt in his heart. What is she afraid of? When his good mood disappeared, Mu Yunxuan could only go back home.
