Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight
Chapter 185: The Powerful Minister’s Painted Demon White Moonlight (33)
But at this moment, a pair of bloody hands carefully held the butterfly and presented it to her, and Xiao Fuci's eyes were filled with hope.
"Aci, can you tell me what's going on?" Yue Bai raised his hand and wanted to touch Xiao Fuci who was outside the formation, but his hand was burned, and his already pale soul became more transparent.
"I know you have a lot of questions to ask me now, but Yuebai, come out first and I'll take you home." Xiao Fuci passed through the formation and placed the butterfly next to Yuebai, "Don't worry, we are husband and wife after we swore to heaven and earth, you believe me."
Yuebai hesitated and tried to touch the butterfly, nodded at Xiao Fuci, and then attached herself to the butterfly.
Xiao Fuci took the hairpin and immediately asked Baihu to take him out, but as soon as he came out of the scroll, he saw the mansion outside was in a mess and he had no time to get angry.
A wind blade came whistling, and then a man in a purple dragon sheath gauze dress appeared in front of him. He held a purple water fan in his hand, which was as long and thick as water waves, but it was filled with a fierce murderous intent.
Xiao Fuci reacted very quickly and put away the hairpin, unsheathing the soft sword at his waist: "Who are you? Why did you break into my mansion without any grudge?"
At this time, the man seemed to be crazy. He didn't answer but just kept attacking with deadly moves.
At this time, the butler appeared with his guards. Seeing the fierce battle, he shouted anxiously: "Sir, he is a mermaid, the mermaid with an unpleasant voice."
Xiao Fuci finally understood, but after looking him up and down, he realized that this was a man. He had never heard that a mermaid's gender would change after their legs were transformed. He frowned and blocked another attack.
"Yuebai is fine. I can let you see her."
Sure enough, after hearing this, the man quieted down: "You'd better not have done anything irreparable."
His voice was no longer as hoarse as before, but now as cold and clear as the broken jade at Kunshan. No wonder there was a legend that mermaids could use their singing to lure people into committing suicide.
"Qi Ji?" Xiao Fuci called him because of the butler's words just now and the man's reaction when Yue Bai was mentioned.
Qi Ji obviously had no intention of hiding his identity from him. He nodded, but without any extra explanation, he moved the long silk fan closer to Xiao Fuci's neck.
"You know I'm a mermaid, a demon. I have plenty of ways to kill you." The murderous intent in Qi Ji's eyes never disappeared.
Xiao Fuci blocked the fan with his sword, waved his hand to let the servants and guards step back, and took out the ebony butterfly hairpin.
Feeling a familiar breath inside, Qi Ji instantly suppressed his murderous intent. The white tiger appeared gracefully with cat steps, and tapped the butterfly on the hairpin twice with its soft flesh pads.
A wisp of green smoke rose slowly and eventually transformed into the appearance of Yuebai. When Yuebai, who was released, saw the two people, he forgot to react for a moment.
"Yuebai, I'm Qiji." Qiji walked forward and wanted to hug Yuebai.
Xiao Fuci was just about to remind him that this was just a wisp of soul, but Qi Ji actually hugged Yue Bai and did not pass through empty-handed as he thought.
Yuebai patted Qiji's shoulder and said, "Qiji, how come you have grown so big?"
Qi Ji's eyes were red. Yue Bai had obviously never experienced such a thing. She looked at Xiao Fuci at a loss.
Xiao Fuci also shook his head, but Baihu spoke up: "This mermaid has grown up, but this is not the place to talk."
Looking around, they saw the room was completely destroyed by the mermaid who had just reached adulthood, and they all went straight to the side yard.
Baihu gave Yuebai an identical bell: "If you carry this bell with you, you can transform into a physical body. When the Ji family gathers souls for you, they will rebuild your physical body for you."
Yuebai, with the bell on, could finally be touched by Xiao Fuci. Xiao Fuci almost held Yuebai's hand and didn't dare to let go.
Having experienced so many things, he had so many things to say, but he didn't know where to start. After watching Yuebai recover and be touched, Qi Ji sat aside and calmed down.
Yuebai noticed him and asked, "Qiji, do you mermaids change your gender when you become adults?"
"We mermaids have no gender before we reach adulthood, but most of us tend to be of a certain gender, so we will transform into traditional appearances. We can only truly have a gender when we reach adulthood." Qi Ji said, "I didn't know it in my ignorance. It's because you taught me since I was a child that I feel like I am the same as you."
Yuebai was silent for a moment and said, "You looked so delicate when you were a child, so I thought..."
"You thought I was a woman? Actually, you're not wrong, but mermaids are born with exquisite looks. Yuebai, I just wanted to become the person you expected me to be." The pair of strange purple pupils on Qi Ji's delicate face were filled with an incomprehensible dark color.
It seems to be admiration, but it is also full of nostalgia, as well as the joy of reuniting with an old friend and the relief of recovering what was lost.
Yue Bai had no idea why this merman had become like this just after reaching adulthood. He turned to look at Xiao Fuci, and still had to ask some questions: "How many years is it now?"
"The eighth year of Ruichang." Xiao Fuci replied.
"I remember that our wedding was during the reign of the previous emperor, right?" Yue Bai said with emotion, "It has been eight years since the new emperor took office. What rank does Lord Xiao hold now?"
After saying that, Yue Bai took back the hand that he was holding tightly. Xiao Fuci felt the softness of his hand slowly leaving his palm, and it seemed as if something in his heart was taken away.
"Yuebai, I don't know the Xiao family's intentions. I was also confused by them. Yes, I once thought of relying on you to get a high position and high salary, but I also refused to take the Xiao family with me. I know that I am not good to you after all. Then you can ask me to do anything..."
"Master Xiao." Yuebai interrupted him, "Are my family members safe?"
Xiao Fuci knew that Yue Bai was worried about the safety of his family. After all, since the Xiao family knew the secret of the Ji family and were ambitious to show their prowess in the court, they were even willing to raise many demon catchers, so they would not easily let go of the Ji family's fat meat.
However, Xiao Fuci has been silently fighting against the Xiao family and suppressing the aristocratic families over the years, so the Xiao family did not get what they wanted.
Xiao Fuci replied: "Don't worry, Yuebai, your father-in-law and mother-in-law are doing well. They have already gone to look for the remaining souls for you. When they come back with the fragments, we can resume our relationship."
Yuebai just curled her lips and chuckled, but did not respond to Xiao Fuci's words about rekindling their past relationship.
In the end, Xiao Fuci had to arrange for someone to take Yuebai and the mermaid downstairs to rest, but the mermaid didn't want to leave Yuebai at all, and Xiao Fuci didn't notice Qi Ji at first.
His earliest knowledge of Qi Ji was that he was just a little pet raised by Yue Bai. His younger sister from the side branch of the family would sometimes raise some pets and play with them when she was happy, and throw them aside when she was unhappy.
