In the evening, after everyone went back to their rooms, Mu Qing came to the master's door and knocked.

"It's Mu Qing. What's the matter?" the master asked him to open the way and let him in, and then closed the door.

"Master, I overheard Jiu'An and martial uncle say yesterday..."

"Jiu'An has... Died once..." he couldn't say something, and his voice was dry and hoarse in the back.

"Master, I still want to hear you tell me, is this true?"

Master looked at him in silence for a moment, and Mu Qing looked at him too.

Mu Qing has always been a very calm temperament. Master seldom sees Mu Qing like this. He seems to be forcibly suppressing some emotions, and he seems to be about to collapse.

"Yes."

The sound fell. It seemed that a string suddenly broke in Mu Qing's mind. It also seemed that someone was holding a knife to gouge out his heart and scrape his bones. He could hardly sit still in pain.

"Master, can I know why?"

"Your martial uncle and I don't know yet. In this life, we will protect her. Don't worry."

"Master, I also want to ask..." Mu Qing lowered her eyes. "In the last life, Jiu'An... Why didn't I protect her?"

This is something he doesn't understand.

If he were there, he would not let anyone hurt his little junior sister.

Even if he can't resist, he will try his best to keep her alive.

How could... Die early!

"Or did I protect her, master?"

His voice was very quiet, like talking to himself.

He remembered Xing Jiuan's attitude towards him before, so alienated

Master was silent for a moment and didn't answer the question.

"Your martial uncle and I will always pay attention to this. Don't think too much lately."

Mu Qing stared at the master's eyes for a while. Her heart slowly cooled down, "OK."

"It's late. Go back and have a rest. Don't think any more."

"... master, you also have an early rest."

"Well, go back."

Mu Qing returned to the room and slowly recalled Xing Jiu'An's abnormality from that day to the present. He didn't sleep all night.

Xing Jiuan received a call early in the morning. She hurried out and didn't even eat breakfast.

"What's the matter?" Xing Jiu'An came in. Someone helped her open the door, and then closed the door after she came in.

"Boss, this guy suddenly vomited blood. I let the doctor see it. I didn't see anything wrong, but his body began to decline."

The young man led Xing Jiu'An as he spoke.

"In recent days, he has become more and more strange with the naked eye, and there are more and more spots on his face. His skin is dry as if there is no blood and flesh..." just describing it, the young man couldn't help frowning.

Xing Jiu'An was still wondering how it could change so fast for such a little time. However, when she saw it, her eyes could not help but be full of shock.

The person in front of us can hardly be called a person.

His face was thin, black and blue, his lips were blue and purple, and his eyes were chaotic.

The skin exposed on the outside is really like what the youth said, as if there was no flesh and blood inside.

"Boss, you said he wouldn't be evil." the young man said aside, "boss, I'm afraid. You protect me."

Xing Jiu'An glanced at him and didn't speak.

"Boss, he's really the most terrible person I've ever seen!"
