After rebirth, I remarried the domineering 9000-year-old

As the man raised his hand, tremendous internal energy surged out. Within a few breaths, all the remaining men in black in the alley were killed.

Murong Yan held her breath, her fox eyes wide open, staring straight at the man who was walking towards her, not daring to blink.

Shen Yan's internal strength has not recovered yet. The one who can have such powerful strength must be her Shen Mu.

As the man got closer, Murong Yan could even hear her heartbeat getting faster and faster, like the beating of a drum.

Her fingertips tightly grasped his robe covering his body, and her eyes followed his steps, always fixed on his face.

Finally, it's getting close.

The man came to her and squatted down to check her injuries. Seeing the scars on her body, a strong sense of hostility welled up in his eyes.

After checking the injuries and making sure they were just superficial wounds with no damage to the bones, he looked up at her.

Although he was suppressing his anger, his voice was still filled with obvious displeasure: "How can you go out without guards? Do you know who these people are..."

However, before he could finish his words, there was a rustling sound of breaking air behind them, and a team of well-trained guards in black appeared in an orderly manner at the entrance of the alley.

Both of them looked over.

The black-clad guards all knelt down, the leader bowing his head and saying, "I am late in coming to your rescue. Please punish me, Master!"

Murong Yan frowned: "Who asked you to come? Get out!"

"Yes!" The leader took the order and led the guard team and disappeared in an instant.

The man frowned and turned to look at Murong Yan, a trace of disbelief flashing in his eyes: "Did you hire these killers?"

Although it was a question, it revealed a firmness.

Murong Yan's eyes flickered, and she lowered them somewhat embarrassedly: "Yeah."

"Are you crazy?" The man stood up suddenly. "These people are eight-star assassins from the Xingyue Pavilion. How can you be sure that your guards can defeat them? If I hadn't woken up in time, do you know how serious the consequences would be?"

"Why are you doing this?"

Thinking of the scene he saw when he opened his eyes just now, the man still felt scared. If he was even a little bit later, the consequences would be unimaginable!

No one knew the strength of the Star Moon Pavilion's eight-star killers better than him. Even he found it difficult to face dozens of them simultaneously...

Thinking of this, a strange thought flashed through his mind.

But before he could think it through, the woman hugged his neck, and his neck became wet.

The woman's sobbing voice was close at hand: "Because I want you to come back, Shen Mu... I miss you so much..."

The woman's words were like a bag of ice water falling from the sky. The man's whole body stiffened, and the chill that seeped from his heart almost froze him.

Connecting the events of the past few days, what else did he not understand? She wanted to wipe him out and let Shen Mu come back.

In order to stimulate Shen Mu to come back, she even risked her life and put herself in such a dangerous situation.

The worry in the man's eyes disappeared. He raised his hand and forcefully pushed the woman out of his arms. In the woman's astonished eyes, he looked at her coldly.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Yan'er."

"Didn't I tell you? Your Shen Mu died a long time ago and will never appear again."

"Why don't you believe it?"

"Heh." He pointed his index finger at his chest. "This body can only belong to me, Shen Yan, regardless of life or death."

After saying this, he didn't even look at the woman who was standing there in a daze, and strode away without any reluctance.

But before he even walked out of the alley, he suddenly vomited a large mouthful of blood and fell straight to the ground, unconscious...

When Shen Yan woke up again, he saw Murong Yan sleeping on the edge of the bed. Her hair was messy and her eyes were slightly swollen. She must have been crying.

He subconsciously raised his hand, wanting to push a strand of her hair behind her ear, but before he touched her hair, his hand stopped in mid-air.

She stayed with him because of Shen Mu, and cried because of Shen Mu.

It has nothing to do with him.

He withdrew his hand and wanted to turn over to face her, but found that he was so weak that he couldn't even turn over.

Shock flashed in his eyes. He clearly...

Before he could figure it out, the noise he made had already woken up Murong Yan who had been guarding him.

Murong Yan sat up straight and looked at him with concern, with obvious joy in her eyes: "You are finally awake, do you want some water?"

A trace of coldness flashed across Shen Yan's eyes, and he didn't even look at her: "Don't waste your time, I'm not him."

Murong Yan's eyes dimmed slightly, but she soon smiled: "I know you are not him, do you want some water?"

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he said in silence for a while: "Since you know I'm not him, why do you care about me?"

Murong Yan walked to the table, poured him a glass of water and handed it to him: "No matter what, you saved me and didn't let me lose my reputation in front of outsiders. Thank you."

Shen Yan sneered, "You're just trying to take care of his health. Why are you saying it so high-soundingly? You can't fool me."

Murong Yan took a deep breath and didn't want to argue with him anymore: "Do you want to drink it or not? If not, forget it." She pretended to put the water back.

Shen Yan: "I can't move, you feed me."

Murong Yan: “…”

She finally helped him sit up carefully, fed him the glass of water with her own hands, then helped him lie down and covered him with the quilt.

The two of them didn't say another word.

After finishing all this, Murong Yan stood up and left.

At the moment when he was about to push open the door, Shen Yan spoke up: "You don't care about his health anymore?"

Murong Yan paused and said, "I have something else to do. Two maids will come to serve you in a while. Now that you are awake, tell them if you need anything."

After saying that, without waiting for Shen Yan to speak, she opened the door and left.

Night fell again. Murong Yan climbed up to the roof alone and sat there, staring at the stars in the sky in a daze.

His body was now even weaker than when she had just rescued him. This was probably because he had forced himself to wake up in the alley the day before to save her and had overused his internal energy.

She had worked so hard for so long, but the situation had only gotten worse.

Shen Mu didn't come back, and this body became even worse.

Because she was worried that her trick wouldn't work, she took real action and hired an eight-star killer from the Xingyue Pavilion to defile her, hoping to wake him up in the most urgent moment of danger...

But why was it Shen Yan who woke up?

Murong Yan looked up at the stars with tears in her eyes. When she blinked, tears rolled down her cheeks one by one like beads that had broken off the string.

Shen Mu, are you really gone?

Or is it that you don't want to wake up because you don't care?
