Xie Yunnan asked his father again: “You and Duan Changqing knew each other early on?”

“No, I didn’t know him at all before… When I first found you, he was not pleasing to the eye.” The Ghost King replied.

Xie Yunnan was a little surprised.

The Ghost King didn’t hide it either as he touched his nose and coughed lightly. “Wasn’t he taken away the night you awakened as a priest? Actually, I took him away. I knew he had secrets to hide, so I took him away to interrogate the truth, but he crushed me with his strength.”

Xie Yunnan suddenly realized that his father’s attitude towards Duan Changqing changed after that day.

He thought it was because Duan Changqing removed his makeup and revealed his true face, but it turned out to be because… he was beaten by Duan Changqing?

He didn’t know what to say.

“He taught me all the exercises I taught you.” The Ghost King talked to Xie Yunnan for a while longer, and left after explaining everything Duan Changqing had done.

Even though Duan Changqing was on the bed motionless, in fact… he heard everything.

Very good – Xie Yunnan doesn’t look angry.

After the Ghost King left, Duan Changqing slowly opened his eyes.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Xie Yunnan sitting beside his bedside.

“How do you feel?” Xie Yunnan noticed that Duan Changqing was awake, and immediately used some divine power to examine Duan Changqing’s body.

Without Duan Changqing by his side, his cultivation speed was very slow. With his continued practice, any divine power he regained would be immediately used to heal Duan Changqing’s injuries.

“I’m fine, I just need some more rest.” Duan Changqing smiled at Xie Yunnan.

The situation now is very similar to when they first met, however, at that time Xie Yunnan was full of pity for Duan Changqing, whereas now his mood is complicated.

“Do you want something to eat?” Xie Yunnan asked.

“Yes.” Duan Changqing said.

Xie Yunnan quickly brought some food.

“I can’t lift my arms.” Duan Changqing blinked.

Seeing him like this, Xie Yunnan took the food and fed him little by little.

Duan Changqing ate very slowly, but Xie Yunnan was not impatient… After eating for a while, Duan Changqing said, “Yunnan, I’m sorry, I lied to you before.”

“It’s okay, you didn’t mean it.” Xie Yunnan said.

Duan Changqing could feel that Xie Yunnan was really not angry, but he still felt restrained.

This is inevitable.

He stretched out his hand and took Xie Yunnan’s hand.

His hand didn’t have much strength, so he could only put it on Xie Yunnan’s wrist lightly. “Yunnan, I didn’t mean to lie to you, actually… I’m not the Ghost King. I’m not even a person from this world.”

“You, what?!” Xie Yunnan was stunned.

He just accepted that Duan Changqing is the Ghost King, but now Duan Changqing tells him that he is not the Ghost King, and that he is not from this world?

Duan Changqing explained: “I used to live in another world, and I was a powerhouse in that world. Later, I died unexpectedly, and woke up in a different world and found myself floating on the river… This body is not mine, the original owner was already dead. You knew the condition of my body at that time, it was very weak. If it weren’t for you, I might have died.”

Xie Yunnan’s face was full of disbelief, giving Duan Changqing the opportunity to slowly talk about his previous life and sell misery.1as in talk about his life as miserable and get XYN to pity him

He was really miserable in his last life. He was captured at a young age, controlled, and used as a human-shaped weapon.

Duan Changqing was constantly observing Xie Yunnan’s face as he spoke, noticing that Xie Yunnan’s eyes were full of distress. Not only that, Xie Yunnan also clenched his hand.

Slowly, steady.

Xie Yunnan should not be angry with him anymore!

“When I was rescued by you, I didn’t have amnesia. I didn’t understand the world at all, and I didn’t know anything. I learned everything from TV, but I learn things fast and almost never forget.”

After Xie Yunnan discovered that Duan Changqing was a strong man, the most unacceptable thing was that Duan Changqing pretended to know nothing… At first, Duan Changqing talked like a child, which made him think that he had been ravaged and lost his memory.

Realizing that all this was fake, he was naturally a little depressed.

However…

Isn’t this too fantastical?

Xie Yunnan always felt that this was fake. But because it was too fake, even if Duan Changqing wanted to deceive him, there was no need to weave such lies to deceive him.

So, Duan Changqing really isn’t from this world?

“Yunnan, I really like you. The first time I saw you, I liked you very much.” Duan Changqing said. He chose to confess completely because he didn’t want to have any more misunderstandings between them.

Since he has identified Xie Yunnan as his partner, he should naturally know everything.

After explaining things cleanly, there won’t be a need to fear misunderstandings again.

Duan Changqing’s expression was very sincere, and what he said was obviously not a lie.

In fact, before today, Xie Yunnan had been very sure of this. That is, he was a little skeptical before, but now…

Xie Yunnan remembered one thing: “How old are you?”

If Duan Changqing is not the Ghost King, he shouldn’t be fifty or sixty years old like he originally thought. But hearing Duan Changqing talk about his previous life… the span of years should be quite large.

Duan Changqing: “…Yunnan, I’m a little dizzy…”

Xie Yunnan: “…” Why does he feel that Duan Changqing is very old!

Duan Changqing said again: “I swear, I have never been in love before. I don’t know if the original owner of this body has any emotional experience, but I’m sure he has never had a relationship with anyone.” The yuanyang2male virginity or something similar, but fictional of this body is still there!

“How do you even know this? Are you sure?”

“I’m sure.”

“Then why did he look like that?” Xie Yunnan asked.

“Look like that?” Duan Changqing was puzzled.

Xie Yunnan reported his initial guess.

Duan Changqing was speechless. Xie Yunnan always regarded him as someone who had been bullied… a weak shou?

He knew that Xie Yunnan felt sorry for him, but he really didn’t know why Xie Yunnan thought so.

After calming down, Duan Changqing said, “Those injuries were caused by me bumping into the river at the time. As for what I wore… I threw the coat away.”

So it was.

Xie Yunnan had to admit that he was still very happy that Duan Changqing had never been wronged.

However, at this time, Duan Changqing said again: “By the way, Yunnan, I am not the Ghost King. The real Ghost King is actually your father. He misunderstood me as a warrior beside the High Priest, or the one who betrayed the High Priest, and lent his identity to me.”

Xie Yunnan: “…”

Then, Duan Changqing threw one more bomb out. “That… Wen Che arrested me because he thought you really got the inheritance of the High Priest and wanted to find the High Priest through you. When chatting with him I discovered… when I transmigrated over, this body was wearing the clothes of the High Priest.”

Xie Yunnan: “!!!”

After blasting Xie Yunnan with a few thunders, Duan Changqing fell asleep again.

Xie Yunnan sat beside the bed and rubbed his forehead.

He’s been through a lot during this time!

In layman’s terms, he’s in a relationship and got married. But why is his partner’s identity so complicated?

Duan Changqing… turned out to be the High Priest?

Is this really not a joke?

Xie Yunnan suspected that Duan Changqing was lying to him, but to be honest, Duan Changqing spoke so well, and there was no need to lie to him again.

Taking a deep breath, Xie Yunnan pushed Duan Changqing to the side of the bed, and then lay down beside Duan Changqing.

No matter what happened in the past… Duan Changqing said that he liked him, and they have been together for a long time… So be it.

He also likes Duan Changqing. Since he likes him, he can’t push him away just because he has a grudge in his heart.

As for Duan Changqing’s strength… Duan Changqing has been helping him improve his strength. He just needs to seize the opportunity and work hard to become stronger!

Thinking that Duan Changqing’s suffering this time was all for himself…

The Xie Yunnan who was no longer close to Duan Changqing after learning the latter became a strong man was no longer conflicted, as he held Duan Changqing’s hand.

Few people would help him like this, without placing any demands on him.

He is really a very lucky man.

It was a quiet night.

When he woke up the next morning, Xie Yunnan figured it out.

Duan Changqing’s health is really bad, and he has to take good care of him. Unless necessary, Duan Changqing shouldn’t use any strength.

After clearing the air, there was no lack of warmth of affection between Duan Changqing and Xie Yunnan.

But on the other side…Wen Che, Meng Yan, Jiao Qinyun and others just met.

Yesterday, after the Ghost King brought Wen Che and the others back, he arranged for them to live in the manor.

Wen Che was slightly injured, so he didn’t go out at that time and stayed in his room until this morning, when he finally met Meng Yan and the others.

In the previous rebellion in Holy City, although Meng Yan and the others didn’t do anything, they were all on the opposite side of the High Priest, and Wen Che didn’t like them.

When they saw Wen Che, they could only gloat over the misfortune: “Oh! We have another friend!”

“What friend? You and I are not friends at all!” Wen Che frowned.

Still thinking that Wen Che was being controlled like them, one of them gloated. “You’re already here, so why bother denying it… After trying to kidna him, what do you think?”

Meng Yan and the others obviously knew about Duan Changqing’s situation… After learning that he had kidnapped the “Ghost King”, Wen Che also felt he was a little stupid.

Meng Yan said again: “We’ve both fallen from grace, and will be colleagues from now on. Don’t think about resisting, so as not to have a headache.”

Wen Che: “What resistance? What headache?”

Meng Yan and Jiao Qinyun: “…you don’t have a headache from being controlled?”

“What control?”

“Then why did you come here?”

“I want to repay a life-saving grace.” Wen Che replied. The Ghost King told him not to reveal Duan Changqing’s identity, so he didn’t say much.

But Meng Yan and Jiao Qinyun had already figured out one thing – Wen Che isn’t controlled.

Why?

Why are they so miserable, but Wen Che can be at ease?

Is this fair?!

Meng Yan and Jiao Qinyun immediately disliked Wen Che.

Wen Che didn’t think they were pleasing to the eye, and the atmosphere was not very good.

Until the Ghost King appeared…

The small group of people immediately cleared their expressions, and Meng Yan and the others also avoided the Ghost King.

The Ghost King strutted over, feeling that it was quite good when everyone was afraid of him.

Seeing that he was a little proud, Wen Che couldn’t help but say, “Brother, why do you use such a disguise? Using such a disguise and charming others… Everyone who sees you will doubt life.”

As someone well-informed and experienced, Wen Che can tell the Ghost King’s face is fake at a glance.

Hahaha –

XYN: … you seem to have a lot of life experience.

DCQ: No! Wifey, you’re wrong! I’m not that old.
