3408 Ponder Deeply
He didn’t know what Mo Chen had experienced in the past few years, or what he had encountered. Even though he didn’t want to take any notice, it was obvious that the way he treated her was not the same anymore.
However, he also knew that he was restraining and suppressing his emotions. It was precisely because of this that he found it strange and couldn’t help asking this question at this moment in time. He wanted to know her thoughts.
When she heard his words, Feng Jiu’s expression changed slightly and also thought of the changes in Mo Chen along the way. Compared to Mo Ze, as a woman, she was naturally more sensitive and had noticed the difference in the way Mo Chen treated her, especially the words he had said to her.
So, she stretched out and held his hand, and said softly: “Don’t imagine things, we are going to get married soon. Besides, Mo Chen has become the Holy Son of the Holy Temple, and it was said that he had cultivated in that Holy Tower for five years to rid himself of seven emotions and six desires. I think he only feels the responsibility of protection towards me! After all, his Master had instructed him to follow me all the time, and…”
As she spoke of this, her voice paused and her eyes flickered slightly.
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Mo Ze asked: “And what?”
Feng Jiu paused, then said: “He told me once that his past life was connected to mine. He said that he has a life and death calamity, and whether it was life or death, only I can solve it.”
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Mo Ze frowned slightly, and he remained silent without speaking.
“But he also said that we will have a life and death calamity, and that he will protect us. So I once wondered if the two life and death calamities are related.” Feng Jiu turned her face and looked at him. When she saw that his brows were furrowed tightly, and his expression was serious, she couldn’t help but chuckle and nudged him: “Fine, let’s not overthink things. At least we haven’t encountered any calamity at the moment.”
As she spoke, she withdrew from his arms as she heard Leng Shuang say that the bath water was ready. So she stood up and said: “I’ll take a bath first.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze watched her walk behind the screen, then he sat at the table and pondered deeply. With their current strength, who else could threaten them? If there was a life and death calamity, when would that be?
There was still no news about the few ancient lotus seeds that she had mentioned. The Demon Lord who had disappeared without a trace had also not shown up for a long time. There was also that person who possessed the World Annihilation Black Lotus…
When he thought of this, his face turned cold. He was not afraid of the ones in the open, he was afraid of the ones who were hiding in the dark. After all, it was easy to dodge an open spear thrust but hard to guard against an arrow fired in the dark. It was a serious problem to not deal with those people hidden in the dark. It seemed that after they got married, this matter still needed to be investigated by their subordinates to see what actions those people had taken in the recent years.
After an unknown amount of time, he regained his composure from his deep thoughts and realised that Feng Jiu had been in the bath for a long time. He didn’t hear the sound of water, so he got up and walked behind the screen.
He saw that she was leaning back against the bathtub filled with floating red petals. Her sculpted shoulders were exposed above the water, and her slender and beautiful snow-white neck was covered with a few petals and droplets of water. She looked very attractive.
At this moment, both her eyes were closed tightly, she was leaning there as if she was soundly asleep. She didn’t even realise that half her chest was exposed out of the water seductively.
When he saw that she had fallen asleep in the bathtub, Xuanyuan Mo Ze stepped forward and took a bath towel that was hanging on the side. Then he picked her up in the towel and wiped the water off her body, and carried her to the bed…
