Chapter 641: True and False White Lies
As my soul floated up to the crystal coffin, the Grand Steward and the eight Ghost Guards all looked at me in unison.
Obviously, they can see soul bodies that ordinary people can't see, and I'm not surprised by this, after all, these eight ghost guards are ethereal soul bodies, and the chief steward has mastered spiritism, so it's reasonable to see me.
It's just that I could feel their look at me in amazement, and I instinctively looked down and understood why.
It turns out that the surface of my soul body is wrapped in a golden luminous film, which is completely different from ordinary soul bodies, either dark blue or dark gray, and it is indeed rare for a soul body like me to emit golden light.
That's because since I married Yan Susu, the ghost princess of the underworld, I have become a member of the royal family, so the golden light emitted by my soul body is a symbol of the royal family.
"Boom!"
Perhaps recognizing my dignity, the eight ghost guards suddenly knelt down and saluted me.
"Get up. β
I hurriedly spoke.
"Ninth Prince, why is your soul body so special? What is your identity? Can you actually make our Murong family's ghost guards so in awe of you? To be honest, although the ghost guards were cultivated by our Murong family using secret techniques, they are only loyal to our Murong family. I've never seen them do this to anyone!"
The chief steward also looked at me in surprise when he saw the ghost guards suddenly kneel, and when I asked them to get up, and they stood up respectfully.
"Boss, to tell you the truth, ten years ago, my mother and I were kidnapped and almost died in the ruins, but we happened to be rescued by Lord Yama in the underworld, who was also trapped in the ruins. It's just that my mother's injury was too serious at that time, and she had no way to recover. It was my mother who begged Lord Yama to save me before she died. In order to save the three-year-old me and help him and his daughter Princess An He get out of the demon ruins that have been trapped for many years, he asked me and his three-year-old daughter to sign a soul contract through a magical wrench, and then he took his daughter and I to successfully leave the demon ruins and return to the underworld with the powerful power of signing the soul contract with the wrench. After that, I grew up in the underworld, and thus became the identity of the master of the underworld. Therefore, the golden light emitted by my soul body is a symbol of the royal family of the underworld. And the ghost guard itself should be specially trained by the undead from the underworld, so it makes sense that they can recognize my royal identity at a glance. β
I replied without any subtlety.
The reason why I will truthfully inform the chief manager of my identity as the master of the underworld is that I know that in his mind I am Murong Susu's fiancΓ©, and it is impossible for him to harm me, plus the chief manager is quite a shrewd person at first glance, and ordinary lies can't hide from him, so I don't have to deliberately hide anything from him.
Second, this statement is a lie I made up carefully in order to pretend to be the ninth prince, and I have said this to the third princess Youyou before. I believe that sooner or later it will spread throughout the entire palace, and even the entire Demon Domain, so soon the Grand Administrator will also hear about this matter, and it will not make much sense for me to hide it.
What's more, at this moment, the golden light film on my soul body has been discovered by him, and he has let the eight ghost guards perform such an unprecedented salute, I might as well tell him personally, but it is a wise move.
Of course, although this statement was made up by me at the time, it is better to have truth and falsehood, and I am indeed the identity of the master of the underworld, so it is easy for people to see through it.
"I see! It seems that the old man is really not mistaken, you are indeed the kind of pride of heaven who is one in a million and has great luck! My Miss Murong can be considered her blessing to marry you. However, the old man has one thing that he doesn't know, that is, you and your mother and concubine are members of the royal family of the Demon Domain, who dares to harm your mother and son? And since you were rescued by Lord Yama to the underworld, how did you return to the palace? It stands to reason that it is not a very simple thing for people in the underworld to want to enter the Demon Domain?"
The chief manager suddenly sighed with emotion, and asked with great confusion.
"Hey, it's because someone is jealous of my luck, in order to prevent me from blocking someone's ambition to inherit the throne of the Demon Realm, that they attacked our mother and son. As for who the other party is, you must be able to guess a thing or two, but I don't have evidence yet, so I'll tell you when the right opportunity arises in the future, right? And the reason why I returned to the palace again is because the Yin and Yang rooms also faced the crisis of complete destruction, and even my wife An and Princess Ann disappeared. In the end, in order to ensure my safety, Lord Yama used a secret method to forcibly send me back to the ruins to avoid the crisis. He continued to look for his daughter, Ann and the princess. If it weren't for the words of my eldest brother and third sister who went to the demon ruins to pick flowers on the other side more than a month ago, they happened to see me unconscious. I'm afraid I've turned to blood-colored dirt and died in the ruins. After that, Sister Sanwang and I returned to the palace with the help of the magic worm in her hand that could escape thousands of miles in an instant. Because the demon worm sucked a lot of my blood to evacuate, I was unconscious for more than a month after returning to the palace, and I didn't wake up until just now. You know what happened after that. β
I sighed and patiently explained.
"Ninth Prince, don't worry, since you are now the uncle of our Murong family, in the future, I and the ghost guards will absolutely protect your safety, and will never let anyone hurt you and our family's Miss Murong for the sake of the so-called throne. As for the person who intended to kill you and your mother ten years ago, the old man will also secretly help you investigate clearly. This is no longer your personal grudge, but a major event for our Murong family. Anyone who dares to hurt our Murong family will definitely get the most severe punishment! It's just that this is all later, and the top priority at the moment is to resurrect my family's Miss Murong first. By the way, did the old man memorize the cheats he gave you so quickly?"
The Grand Steward assured me with a solemn face.
"It's all in my mind, and there will be absolutely nothing wrong, so please rest assured. β
I gently pointed to my temple with my right index finger and replied confidently.
"Okay, then the old man won't delay you, you hurry into Miss Murong's eyebrows and start resurrecting her." Don't forget to use the spirit cocoon to keep in touch. β
The chief manager said briskly, and gave a simple admonition.
"Okay, Grand Administrator. Hurry back to your room to eat and get some good sleep. It must have been quite hard to get here from the Netherworld for more than a month, right?"
I nodded and urged understandingly.
"Yes, the old man is indeed a little tired, and after watching you enter Miss Murong's eyebrows, I will go back to my room to rest. You're busy with yours, don't worry about me. β
The Grand Steward replied with some weariness.
After that, I didn't say anything more, turned around and floated into the crystal coffin, looked at Murong Susu's eyebrows, and got into it without hesitation.
When I entered Murong Susu's eyebrows, I saw Yan Susu's soul body sitting there a little distracted, not knowing what he was thinking.
So, I hurriedly floated to her side, sat down too, stretched out my hand to gently help her wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said softly: "Susu, it's hard for you these days, it's my husband who is not good, he failed to protect you, and made you suffer." β
When my fingers touched the skin of Yan Susu's eyes, she instantly looked at me, took my hand in surprise and asked, "Husband, didn't you ask you to find a way to get me out outside? Why did you come in too? Even if you can't get me out, there's no need to be stupid enough to come in and be trapped inside with me forever! As long as you and your daughter are well outside, I will be relieved." β
"Wife, let's not say that I have a way to get you out, then I can't let you be trapped inside forever. It's not stupid, this is my responsibility as a husband, understand? We are husband and wife, and we will always depend on each other for good and evil. In the future, no matter where our family is trapped, I am not afraid, I have a way to get out. What I'm most afraid of is not seeing you and my daughter, you know? Since the last time we parted, it seems as if millions of years have passed for me, do you know how much my husband misses you? Do you know that my husband has been looking forward to meeting you again these days? So don't say such stupid things in the future, you will always remember that as long as you and your daughter are around, it will be the happiest home for me. Got it? Silly lady. β
I held Yan Susu's hand tightly, stared into her eyes, and said solemnly.
"I hate it, you're the stupid lady! Hmph! Ignore you!"
After listening to my words, although Yan Susu looked obviously moved and wanted to cry, he still pretended to be dissatisfied and pouted and said angrily.
"Haha, my husband loves to see the cute way you pout, it's cuter than our family. Hmmm. β
When I saw Yan Susu pouting, looking extremely cute and a little woman, I couldn't help but laugh and said, and at the end I kissed her pouting mouth in a good mood.
"Ahh
Yan Susu wiped her lips and threatened me with her teeth and claws.
"Since you went out, you took your daughter back to her parents' house and ignored me, so I didn't bother to study this cheats and save you out. It's better to be trapped here forever, at least with your cute little belly and chicken intestine wife, it's better than going out and being a bachelor, right?"
I said in a broken tone of pretending to be broken.
"Cheats? husband, are you saying that reading this incomplete cheats will save us both?"
Yan Susu snatched the cheats in my hand, flipped through them, and asked suspiciously.
"If you want to know the answer, you have to let me kiss it again, and promise me to tell you!"
I deliberately put on a sinister expression and said with a wicked smile.
"Ahh
Yan Susu looked at me with disdain and retorted.
"Haha, here you go again! Threaten this horse master with the princess mansion again! Hey, good men don't fight with women, okay, count you ruthless! Come, come to the arms of this horse master, this horse master kisses you, and slowly tells you about it. β
I laughed a little speechlessly.
After finishing speaking, he took Yan Susu in his arms and kissed her heavily again, ignoring the way she stared at me with a blushing face while wiping her mouth, picked up the cheats and began to tell......
