【Law of the Abyss】

Chapter 21 Pretending

Lei Yiming settled Hongdie in Feng Yelan's room. When he came out, he said to her, "Let's talk."

Feng Yelan nodded and glanced at Mu Bei. Mu Bei understood and immediately walked out, leaving the space for the two of them.

Mu Bei stood at the door. He didn't walk far. On the one hand, he considered safety. If there was any movement inside, he could go in in time. After all, he promised the other person's father to ensure his safety. How could he take it lightly? On the other hand, he was also curious about what the two would say.

Soon, Lei Yiming spoke first.

"Hongdie is not my biological sister. She grew up in Fire Butterfly Valley, an orphan who lived with butterflies every day. Later, she met my father, who brought her back to the Lei family, and we grew up together. I have always treated her as my sister, but I never thought that she had feelings for me. I don't want to hide it from you, you have the right to know this. The marriage between our two families is based on interests and cooperation, but I still ask you to believe me, I will be a good husband and manage our marriage well."

Mu Bei was shocked when he heard this, Brother, you are really honest.

Feng Yelan was silent for a while and then said, "Thank you for telling me all this. I understand." She couldn't be as frank as him. After all, she admitted that she married him out of anger.

It's better this way, they owe nothing to each other. He didn't know that when Hongdie stabbed him, the expression on his face could not be hidden from her. He cared about Hongdie, at least she didn't just treat him as a sister as he said. Maybe he himself didn't realize this, maybe he knew it, but was just deceiving himself.

Lei Yiming came out, saw Mu Bei, and nodded to him. Mu Bei leaned against the door, and Feng Yelan asked him to go in and talk to him.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling sentimental?"

Feng Yelan smiled and said, "We're almost at the Lei family's house. Do you think I'll regret it in the future?"

Mu Bei comforted him: "Don't think too much, no one knows what will happen tomorrow."

"Yes."

Mu Bei glanced at the person on her bed and saw that the person moved. Hong Die had woken up a long time ago, so it should be said that she was fine. The sword stabbing into her looked scary, but in fact it couldn't hurt her at all. Everything that happened before was just an act. She was testing Lei Yiming. He really cared about her, at least not as indifferent as he acted. If that was the case, it would be easy to deal with.

"Why aren't you talking?" Feng Yelan asked curiously.

Mu Bei was sure that he was not dazzled just now. The red butterfly was clearly smiling. He always felt that she was planning something.

Thinking of this, he said to Feng Yelan: "How about you go to my room and I will sleep at the stern at night."

Feng Yelan looked back at Hongdie and said to Mu Bei, "No need, I'll still be here tonight. We are all girls."

At night, when Mu Bei was half asleep, he heard a scream coming from Feng Yelan's room. He rushed over immediately after hearing the sound.

The door of her room was open and there was no one inside.

Mu Bei hurriedly ran to find Lei Yiming, "Ye Lan is missing, and your sister is also missing."

Lei Yiming stopped the boat immediately. He and Mu Bei searched every corner of the boat but couldn't find them.

"Not good!" Mu Bei screamed. He saw Feng Yelan's whip fall on the stern. He rushed over and saw that Feng Yelan was hanging outside the stern. The woman named Hongdie was sitting on the butterfly. Countless butterflies followed her fingers and fell on Feng Yelan. She let out a low moan of pain.

"Ye Lan, what's wrong with you?" Mu Bei used his hands to drive away the butterflies. The butterflies landed on him, and their sharp mouthparts pierced his skin fiercely, causing burning pain. He gritted his teeth, grabbed Feng Ye Lan's hand, and pulled it up hard.

When Lei Yiming rushed over and saw the scene in front of him, he quickly came up to help. The butterflies dispersed instantly and he pulled Feng Yelan up.

He waved his hand, and the palm wind, mixed with a hint of thunder, hit the red butterfly. A red figure fell straight down, and Lei Yiming watched in a daze.

"Lei Yiming, I will never forgive you!" He paused, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably, and watched the red color disappear until it disappeared.

Mu Bei helped Feng Yelan back to her room. Feng Yelan's face and body were covered with pinpoint red spots, which were the marks left by the fire butterfly.

Lei Yiming walked in, checked her wounds, took out a bottle of red ointment and applied it on the red spots.

"I'm sorry, it was my negligence that caused you trouble." Lei Yiming felt very guilty.

Mu Bei was furious: "Your sister is really powerful. Our Ye Lan has not even entered the house yet and has to endure her anger. What will happen to us in the future?"

Feng Yelan grabbed Mu Bei and shook his head to signal him to stop talking.

"I will give you an explanation about this matter."

"Hmph, how can I give it to you? The person has escaped. How can I explain it? Maybe you let him escape on purpose."

Lei Yiming looked at Feng Yelan and said firmly: "Believe me, I will definitely give you an explanation."

"You go out first." Feng Yelan said.

As soon as Lei Yiming walked out, Mu Bei asked, "Ye Lan, what's going on?"

It turned out that Hongdie woke up in the middle of the night and alarmed Feng Yelan. She begged her not to marry Lei Yiming because she loved him, but she didn't like him at all, so why did she want to take someone else's love away? Although Feng Yelan felt a little guilty, he still patiently explained to her why they wanted to get married, but Hongdie said she had a way to help her after listening.

"What method?" Mu Bei asked.

"Hide the truth and replace the pillars with fake ones." Feng Yelan said with a dangerous smile on his face. Mu Bei instinctively stepped back. He looked at her steadily, but saw the look of another person on her face.

"You...are not Feng Yelan, you are Hongdie?"

Feng Yelan approached and walked to his side: "What should I do? You found me!"

Mu Bei wanted to turn around and run outside, but his way was blocked by a butterfly that appeared suddenly. Feng Yelan disappeared, and the person in front of him turned into a red butterfly.

"Interesting? I have used the Illusion Pill to disguise myself so many times and have never been discovered. How did you know?"

"Where is she?" Mu Bei asked.

"Don't worry, she won't die. You may not know that her lover has been following you for a few days. Now you finally have a chance to take him away."

Mu Bei was suspicious. Feng Yixing followed him? Then he thought again, "Why should I believe you?"

Hongdie smiled and said, "Believe it or not, if you don't believe it, just go to Leiming Inn and you will know the truth."

Upon hearing this, Mu Bei walked out immediately, but there were more and more butterflies in front of him and he couldn't move.

"Don't leave in a hurry. It won't be too late to leave after you send me to the Lei family." Hongdie said with a smile.

"Why?" Mu Bei thought about it and understood: "You are afraid that Lei Yiming will find out."

"Smart! My brother is very cautious. If you leave at this time, it will arouse his suspicion." Hongdie said slowly.

"I'm sure he won't doubt me." Mu Bei really didn't want to stay with her.

"No, wait until my brother and I get married, then you can leave."

"Have you ever thought about what to do if he finds out?" Mu Bei really admired her courage.

"You don't understand. My brother likes me, but he won't admit it due to worldly reasons. Now I finally have a chance to be with him. I would be willing to die soon. Besides, my brother won't find out. The Huanyan Pill can make me completely turn into her and no one will know."

"You are a little too confident." Mu Bei said sarcastically.

"I know you have your own purpose for coming to the Lei family. Although I don't know what it is, I can help you." Hongdie was confident that he would not refuse.

Mu Bei was silent. How did she know? If even he knew, how could Lei Yiming not know? He couldn't help but worry whether he could find the Thunder Dragon Pearl.
