The first time I met Ning Ying, we were in a room behind the ancestral hall. Normally, this was a forbidden area that no one was allowed to enter.
But today, they suddenly told me to come here. They said that from now on, this place would be under their control and that I had to properly worship the thing inside.
Yes, the thing they said.
At that time, I understood that the thing inside was something they didn't like but couldn't get rid of.
So, they told me to go.
Pushing open the old door, the creaking sound was long and sharp.
The room was quite spacious. There was a table with an incense burner and a jar on it.
There was a seal on the jar.
The seal was very old. I walked closer to take a closer look. From the faded seal, I could vaguely make out that it was my great-grandfather's handwriting.
Great-grandfather, in that chaotic era, he led the family through it peacefully. He was the most recent hero of the family.
Just as I looked at the seal, the jar suddenly shook. Cracks appeared on it, and it shattered into countless pieces in front of my eyes.
Smoke seeped out of the jar. When the smoke dissipated, a completely naked woman stood in front of me.
Her expression was sinister. As soon as she saw me, she pounced on me, as if she wanted to kill me.
Naturally, I wanted to fight back. But before I could take out the talisman, she suddenly collapsed to the ground.
I held the talisman up and stood in place. At that time, I was probably at a loss.
Although she was a ghost, she was a female ghost.
Because of the family's rules, ghosts that were raised by the family were either indebted to them or felt guilty toward them. They couldn't be killed.
After seeing her naked body, I had no choice but to take her back to my residence.
I didn't dare tell others, afraid that they would use it to make things difficult for me.
At that time, I wanted to reseal her. She was in a deep sleep and looked very weak. I tried several times, but I couldn't reseal her.
Left with no choice, I could only raise her.
She didn't wake up until three years later. At that time, I was eighteen years old and had just moved out of the family residence.
I didn't expect her to lose her memories. Apart from remembering that she was called Ning Ying, she didn't remember anything else.
I took her away, but I didn't want to run into other people's schemes. At that time, I accidentally formed a ghost contract with her. I thought about canceling it, but then I thought that since I'd raised her for so many years, it didn't matter whether I had a ghost contract or not.
She was very obedient. She would do whatever I told her to do. Occasionally, she would also ask some questions.
But every time, she would be blocked by my cold attitude. After a long time, she would only be respectful to me.
Later, I sent her to Nalan Ying's side to find his weakness.
However, I didn't expect that before I could find her weakness, she would become a completely different person when I saw her again.
That day, I couldn't sense her for a long time, so I went to the neighborhood where she stayed for the longest time.
I saw her walk around the neighborhood several times. I didn't know what she was looking for, but the expression on her face was something I had never seen before.
It was very lively, with both joy and anger.
However, I couldn't understand the true emotions in her eyes.
I watched her for a while before appearing in front of her.
I had expected her to treat me with the same deference and distance as she had in the past.
However, she didn't do that this time. The moment she opened her mouth, she started complaining. Her tone was filled with disdain and disdain.
She said that she didn't want to stay by Nalan Ying's side. She even said that Nalan Ying was a pervert. At that time, I didn't know why, but I asked her to go back with me.
I wasn't used to her change. She was too noisy.
She wasn't like the Ning Ying of the past, but the ghost contract clearly told me that she was Ning Ying.
I didn't understand what was wrong with me. In the past, whenever Ning Ying appeared in front of me, I would feel annoyed. But now, even if she made a ruckus and tore down my house, I just felt that she was too noisy. I didn't hate her.
Her attitude towards me was also a little strange. She always wanted to touch me.
To tell the truth, at that time, I thought that she had betrayed Nalan Ying and wanted to kill me.
But she was right. With her abilities back then and that strange Iron Sword, if she wanted to kill me, she didn't need to spend any effort to get close to me.
So what did she want?
That night, when she pressed down on me, she sent a strange force into my body.
That force rampaged through my body before gathering around my heart. It was as if it had been tamed and became extremely docile.
Waves of familiarity rose from the depths of my heart.
I seemed to have hugged her like this before.
That kind of subconscious action was faster than my brain.
After that, I felt a wave of anger. She touched me so recklessly. If she wasn't careful, she would've turned to ashes. But I couldn't bear to blame her.
Couldn't bear to …
When those three words appeared in my mind, even I was a little stunned.
I actually couldn't bear to part with her.
She told me with an arrogant expression.
Feng Jin, I'll protect you from now on. If anyone dares to touch you, I'll send them to hell.
At that time, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Where did her confidence come from?
Why was she so arrogant?
But I couldn't help but admit that I had fallen for her.
That kind of familiarity that came from my soul made it impossible for me to deny that she was slowly taking over my heart.
What happened after that made me even more certain that I had fallen for her.
Neither of us said anything. It was as if being together was something that came naturally.
She was afraid that she would suck away her Yang energy, so she only touched me with kisses. Moreover, it was very light, the kind where lips touched lips.
But she was ruthless to herself. I couldn't describe how I felt when I saw her in such a sorry state in the cemetery.
My heart hurt so much that it almost went numb.
So that night, I ignored her objections and took her by force.
The feeling of losing Yang energy was terrible. It was as if my body had been hollowed out. Weakness, exhaustion, and coldness followed one after another.
No wonder she was so against it.
But she was willing to go so far for me. If I couldn't even bear that, what kind of man would I be?
I wanted to help her return to the living world, but she wasn't willing. She worked hard to increase her strength.
For a long time, I didn't understand why she refused, until I remembered something she once said.
He's human. He's very weak.
She knew that if I helped her return to the living world, I'd have to pay a great price myself.
She didn't want me to take risks, so she'd rather work hard on her own.
She really doted on me. It felt like she was going to dote on me to the heavens. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry every time.
Those who were forced to acknowledge me back then all envied me later on.
I was very glad that I brought her back.
But deep down, I knew that if she was still the original Ning Ying, I wouldn't have liked her.
She was different.
She was Ning Ying, but she wasn't.
