nTheir conversation that morning continues. Xue Hua had told Xie Mo about the reason why he is willing to marry him even though they had just met yesterday for the first time. It was because of this that Xie Mo decided to tell his wife his real identity.

nAfraid that his wife will run away he could only wrap his arms around his waist from behind and caged him within his embrace as he continued to talk.

nXue Hua lets himself be hugged but this sticky man is like in those dreams of his.

n

"Is this reason to marry you enough to calm yourself down?

" asked Xue Hua.

n

"It is enough but... Qizi, there is something you must know. I and you are not originally from this world. I am not talking about the vessel you are using right now but your real soul. In your eyes what do you see? Both you and I are covered in a golden aura. These are merits. The original residents of this world call it such but to use this is just a divine qi that our soul possesses. I and you are both not originally from here. This includes your elder brother, Xue Yan. He is also not a mere human being.

" said Xie Mo.

nXue Hua upon hearing that he and his brothers are not humans plus not original residents of this world stunned him. He couldn't believe it at first but the serious expression of Xie Mo is enough to show that this might be the truth.

n

"Who am I then?

" he asked.

nXie Mo answered,

"If you are asking your origin then my answer is that you are someone from the highest realm. This realm is called Vearth. There is a reason why you are entering those worlds from your dreams, those tasks to get my memories and soul fragments back. As for your current Identity then you are a world hopper. Your real name is Hei Anjing. You came from an independent space controlled by something called the Nether System. That glowing ball from before is your system, he helps you with everything in each world you've entered.

nBut the one choosing the worlds you've entered has always been you. The worlds you have chosen to enter were worlds where I am in it. You may not believe it, but this is the 9th world we've been together.

" There is a huge smile on his face while his eyes were full of love and tenderness while staring at his wife.

nXue Hua was shocked when he heard that this is the ninth world they've spent together but no matter how he thinks about it, he doesn't understand why he couldn't remember their past lives while his husband can.

nXue Hua hugged Xie Mo tighter,

"Why is it that Fujun is able to remember everything while I could not?

" He couldn't help but feel a bit depressed when he thought about how much he had forgotten while with his husband.

nXie Mo replied.

"Hm~ about this there is a reason why you didn't have the full memory you usually have. In the last world, we are in you have used your God Form despite being just a soul. In that world, I did something that made you really angry that you left me behind to live in that world alone. I will not tell you about that. I don't want you to hate me as soon as I find you.

"

n

"...

"

nXue Hua,

"Then are you telling me that instead of going through reincarnation, I will always enter a vessel that is suitable for me? This body called Xue Hua is not my real body but something I've chosen to use in this world? My elder brother Xue Yan is also not the real Xue Yan?

"

n

"Yes, your name is Hei Anjing and you are my wife in all those worlds. If you have some more questions that glowing ball is called System Yue he would be able to answer your questions. As if you have some time later...

" said Xie Mo.

nXua Hua could somewhat understand the theory behind his lost memories but could not accept the result at all. He couldn't understand why he chose to enter worlds without reincarnation. This man who was his husband is telling him that they are both from a world different from this one and the reason he doesn't have his real memories is that his soul was injured and had to hibernate for a while. All that is left within his soul is his love for his husband and memories of their past lives that come to him as dreams which shows his obsession and possessiveness. As well as a few gestures which seem to be something he did a long time ago, and those actions were fully integrated within him.

nXue Hua spoke,

"Does this means I've been your wife for 9 worlds adding this one?

"

nThe Ghost King's eyes wander on the necklace his wife is wearing on his neck. It was because of this that he couldn't feel his wife's soul anywhere in this world. This is clearly an artifact that protects and hides the wearer's soul presence but to Xie Mo, this is the very thing that hid his wife from him.

"Yes. I couldn't tell you everything as even if I do you wouldn't believe it much. After all, when you open your eyes in this world you have always believed that you are Xue Hua and...

" said the ghost king as he kissed his wife's lips while discreetly removing that annoying artifact hanging on Xue Hua's neck.

nTheir kiss was gentle at first until it turned aggressive and deep. Xue Hua has no other questions except those. Once he received his answers his confusion dissipated. The Ghost King carried his naked wife to the bathroom to clean up, but they took a whole hour inside the bathroom before they went down to eat breakfast. In the dining area, a feast was presented to the masters of the house. Xue Hua enjoyed the meal prepared for them by his husband's servants. Of course, the servants within the mansion are not humans but ghosts as well.

nThe ghost servants were trained like those eunuchs and maids from ancient times. It could be said that most of these servants were people who used to serve Xie Mo during his times. They were extremely loyal and there is no way for others to take control of them even shamans are unable to do so. Now even serving the doctrine and manners from the ancient times these servants' eyes couldn't help but show surprise when they saw their Lord Consort, Xue Hua.

nTheir Lord Consort is not only a man but an extremely beautiful man. Short white hair with few highlights of gold and those irises which seem to be dyed deeply with gold. His features were exquisite and flawless. Phoenix-shaped eyes, small tall nose, cherry-colored plump lips. Their lady's beauty is enough to cause chaos in cities and the world itself. But what attracts them is that his aura gives out a chilling feeling that heals their soul. It seems they were willing to fall under his feet following his command.

nXue Hua, who just finished eating, waited for her husband to finish breakfast before he started speaking.

n

"Fujun, did you punish those guys from yesterday. Though I wasn't in this body when they beat me up when it did become mine, the pain is so much that I didn't wish to move from the floor at all.

" Complained Xue Hua while pouting. Xie Mo smiled at his wife's cute antics.

nXie Mo lifted him up from his chair and let him sit on his lap.

"Qizi don't worry I've put a curse on those guys. Especially to that one who took the lead of beating you up.

"

nXue Hua,

"Then my elder brother?

"

n

n

"I'll send someone to look for him and tell him the situation. Qizi, there's a Ghost Festival at Han River next week. Do you wish to enjoy the festival with me?

" asked Xie Mo while hugging his wife.

nXue Hua, who heard about the Ghost Festival for the first time, nodded his head excitedly.

"Ghost Festival? I will go with you Fujun.

" He replied as he kissed his husband on his cheeks.

n---

nWhile our couple is enjoying their blissful married life, the Lou Clan who were bestowed with a curse from a Ghost King were in turmoil. The Leader of Lou Clan, Lou Ming, father of Lou Lan, Xue Hua, and Xue Yan. Together with the other elders of the clan were having a family meeting.

nLou Clan's Mansion. Conference Room.

nThe Clan Leader and the Clan Elders had all gathered surrounding the group of young men who were half-naked while groaning in pain on the floor. On their back carved on their flesh and blood is an ancient crest that signifies hell. A black demonic dragon. Among the young men on the floor is their clan's scion, Lou Lan.

nLou Lan while groaning in pain grabs his father's pants,

"Argh~ D-Dad… save me. so painful. Save me, Dad, ~

" on his bareback a black dragon crest is slightly wriggling. Blood flows out from his skin pores. The curse imprint on his back looks alive.

nLou Ming while hiding his disgust at the scene still coaxed his son,

"Don't worry. Dad will save you.

"

nLou Ming as his father felt pain for his favorite son. If not for the fact that he has the strongest spiritual qi among the cursed group, his ending would have no difference from the others writhing in pain and agony on the floor. The cursed youngsters slowly feel that their spiritual qi is being eaten away. Once their spiritual qi depleted, the one being sucking away is their vitality. Making them lose their young appearance as their hair slowly turned white beginning from their hair tips, their smooth skin slightly turning to wrinkles like how an old person's skin is.

nIn more than 3 hours half of their group turned from an old man to a young boy. Among them only Lou Lan was protected by his halo, his father and clan elders prioritized him and sent him to keep his youthful appearance. In exchange for sealing the curse for a short time, half of the clan elders lost their lives for Lou Lan. While the rest of the youngsters who were cursed with him all turned dry corpses in the end. Their qi, vitality, and life were sucked away by the curse.

nLou Lan and the remaining alive clan elders were now out of energy. Some of them even fainted. At the center, a half-naked Lou Lan had his bareback covered in blood-sealing characters. Surrounding them were countless dry corpses looking like withered trees as they were all sucked dry including their blood.

nLou Ming called for the other disciples and servants while caring for his son.

"Someone! Carry the unconscious elders to their quarters. Get someone to clear the bodies and prepare for the burial ceremony. The rest follow me.

"

nThe clan leader ordered as he picked up his son on the cold floor before carrying him inside. Following behind him were elders who were able to remain awake even after the Sacrificial Sealing Ceremony done on Lou Lan.

n

"Master. The curse is only temporarily sealed. It won't take long for it to break from the Ghost King overpowering qi.

" Said an elder.

nLou Ming replied,

"What should we do then? I can't lose this son. Lou Lan is our clan's only hope.

" While looking at the sleeping Lou Lan within his arms.

nAnother Elder replied.

"There are only two options.

"

n

n

"What is it?

" asked Lou Ming.

n

"First we go visit the Ghost King and ask for forgiveness, As long as the Ghost King forgives us and in exchange of enough compensation we should be able to beg him to remove the curse on the scion.

"

nA frown appeared on Lou Ming's face.

"No! What should we do if the compensation the Ghost King asked includes Lan'er? We can't lose the only child who awakened our clan's bloodline.

"

nHearing that the elders have all clamped their mouths shut. They knew how important Lou Lan is. He is the only hope of their clan's revival. The Lou Clan which used to serve Ghost King Xie has a special bloodline. They have an ancestral bloodline of Supreme Water Physique. This special physique can only be passed through the bloodline. Once a baby with a Supreme Water physique was born, it was destined that his mother would die. As the possessor of the physique needs to bathe in his own mother's blood to complete his physique.

nThis is the reason why Lou Lan is special. He is the possessor of Supreme Water Physique. Once he completely awakens his physique, a vast spiritual qi that is enough to qualify as a reservoir will be found in him. In short, Lou Lan was born as a furnace that can help the clan members to receive his endless spiritual qi and share it among them. Helping them to rise to a level and get even stronger. The way to pass his qi is through intercourse. Lou Lan's life will be hell when his physique completely awakens. As this clan he grew up to will see him as nothing but a charging tool to extend their life and let them upgrade.

nLou Ming asked,

"What's the other option?

"

n

n

"We heard the rumors that the strongest and youngest shaman from the Special Clan of Feng is in our city. We can ask him for a different option to remove the curse on the scion and... we can also ask him to seal or kill the Ghost King for us.

" Answered another elder.

nThis option made Lou Ming feel happier than the first one.

"This option seems better. Send people to look for the descendants of Feng. I heard that the Ghost Festival in Han will be open next week. Prepare people to attend the festival as well. The Feng Descendant might attend that event..

" Said Lou's Clan leader.
