Chapter 32: Mirror Realm
"Tian'er, Tian'er, don't run too fast." Walking through the brown corridor, Ximin suddenly found that Bai Tian, who was walking in front of her, was nowhere to be seen. She couldn't help but frowned. From today on, Tian'er will live here with her. Her heart felt inexplicably warm. It was the first time she was willing to live with a member of the opposite sex. Although Tian'er was still young, she believed that he would soon return to his true form.
"Ah," Apple suddenly covered her mouth.
Following behind the two all the way, Apple rubbed his eyes in disbelief as he watched Bai Tian suddenly disappear, wondering if he had seen it wrong...
"That's right. I clearly saw this damn girl entering Xuanyu Pavilion with my cousin. She was walking in front of my cousin, but she disappeared out of thin air while walking." At this moment, there was indeed no one in front of him, except for the dark corridor and the scarlet carpet reminding him that he had arrived at Xuanyu Pavilion.
Apple swallowed and felt her whole body go cold. She couldn't help but pull her thin skirt closer. The urge to curse disappeared, and the urge to hit someone was inexplicably shaken.
I couldn't help cursing in my heart: "This damn girl, she's so elusive. I saw her come in, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye. I said she was a monster. I must tell my cousin today."
Why, why? Thousands of years later, you are still devoted to her, and even the six reincarnations are biased towards you, allowing you to protect her for generations. Why, why can such a woman be favored by you, while I have to give for generations...Haha, Hai Xiner laughed until tears covered her face...
"Miss, your..." Before the waitress could finish her words, she heard a snap and five finger marks appeared on her pink face.
"Get lost, you little jerk. It's all because of you. It's all because of you." Hai Xin'er stood up like crazy. Screams could be heard from inside the house...
"Master, then, then..." Hen Guo stammered as he stood in front of the hall. He was as elegant as a jade tree in the wind, with a straight posture, and his eyes as cold as a deep pool exuded boundless murderous intent.
Ming Yan rubbed his brows, glanced at him, and hummed softly: "Speak."
Hen Guo calmed himself down and said, "Ever since Hai Xin'er came to Jiumen, all the maids here are afraid of her.
I just passed by Sansi Hall and heard the screams of a female servant inside. "
Ming Yan closed his eyes and said nothing.
Seeing this, Hen Guo bowed and said, "I have said too much. I will leave now."
"Hen Guo, are you blaming me?" Ming Yan didn't raise his head. Hen Guo's eyes dimmed, and he replied, "I dare not. The master must have a reason for doing this."
There was a hint of evilness on Ming Yan's lips: "Your body has recovered a lot."
"I will never forget the life-saving grace of the Sect Master." Hen Guo bowed.
Ming Yan stood up, glanced at Hen Guo in a bewitching manner, and whispered: "Keep an eye on this woman. What did she do? With whom? Especially with Yang Baitian..."
He frowned slightly.
Have questions? Ming Yan's eyes wrinkled slightly.
Hen Guo felt a sudden pain in his head and then bowed and left the hall.
Yang Baitian, Yang Baitian, I seemed to have heard it somewhere, why did I have this feeling... Hen Guo rubbed his forehead hard and disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
"Cousin, it's true, it's true that this damn girl disappeared in the blink of an eye. She disappeared right here. You were clearly walking behind her. You saw it, didn't you?" Apple suddenly stepped forward, pulled Westminster and pointed to the end of the corridor. Although her body was still shaking, she looked a little proud as if she had found the real culprit.
Westminster already had an inexplicable fear of the Xuanyu Pavilion in her heart, and she felt inexplicably annoyed when Apple reminded her of this again.
"I said Yang Baitian was abnormal, you see she was elusive." Apple looked around nervously.
Ximin was a little unhappy: "It's so late, Tian'er is a child after all, it's normal for him to run faster."
Apple pouted and said, "A few days ago, you said she was your wife, and today you said she was a child. I don't believe a child can run so fast and disappear without a trace."
Westminster sighed and waved Apple to go back quickly.
Apple's heart ached. Her delicate face was diminished by the scar. She shed tears and said, "Cousin, you were not like this to me before. You have changed since Yang Baitian came."
Ximin felt a headache. "Apple, you are my cousin forever. There are some things I can't explain to you clearly at the moment. I have asked my classmates abroad to bring back scar remover for your scars. Just apply it regularly and they will be gone."
Apple pouted: "I don't know how many boys are chasing me, but in your place, I am not even as good as a few-year-old kid, right?"
Westminster frowned, "You're just my cousin, Apple, stop being childish."
"Cousin, you are so childish. How old am I? Am I childish or is this dead girl Bai Tian just a child? Cousin, please wake up." Apple hugged Westminster's arm tightly.
Westminster couldn't help but scratch Apple's nose and said, "Okay, okay, you are an adult, so please go back to sleep."
"No, I want to stay too. I want to live with my cousin." Apple blushed and clung tenderly to Westminster's arms.
"That's enough, cousin Apple. You will always be my sister and that won't change." Westminster frowned, pulled back her arm, and walked into the inner room without looking back.
You, Apple was so angry that he covered his face and ran out.
Watching Apple stumble out, Westminster sighed and rubbed his temples gently. "The corridor of Xuanyu Pavilion was dark and endless. Even though it was covered with animal skin carpets, Westminster could still hear his own footsteps. The heavy sound was like a Western clock in the middle of the night, which was particularly harsh. Taking a deep breath, Westminster still walked forward.
The carved patterns rendered with red lacquer inexplicably emitted a strange light, as if the color had changed because someone had come, and it was particularly red. I heard that this Xuanyu Pavilion was integrated with the Yiji Bagua, and someone had been trapped inside forever. But I had walked through it when I was a child, so today I was familiar with it, but how could Tian'er run so fast?
When I think of this, I always feel like there is a pair of eyes watching me in the dark.
"Tian'er, Tian'er, why are you running so fast?" Ximin called out softly, but her voice was unusually hoarse.
"Brother Ximin," a pure and soft voice came.
Westminster looked up. In the attic, at the window frame, the veil fluttered lightly...
A beautiful figure is like a light white butterfly, with a white dress that is whiter than snow and hazy in the warm sun. Her scattered hair is like a black waterfall rushing down to her waist, as bright as a rose, as beautiful as a guerlain, and her icy skin and bones are like a fairy or a demon.
Ximin was extremely happy and whispered, "Tian'er, is that you?"
"Brother Ximin, of course it's me. Brother Ximin, you obviously like me, so why don't you tell your cousin that you love me?" Tian'er's beautiful little face was full of unhappiness.
Ximin's face flushed instantly, and the heavy feeling hidden in her heart was instantly filled with joy. She immediately stepped forward and hugged Tian'er tightly in her arms: "My dear Tian'er, it turns out that you know my heart. I have already told her with my actions, haven't I? I will wait for you to grow up quickly."
"You don't need to wait for me to grow up. I have already returned to my true form, look." Tian'er smiled sweetly while lifting her skirt.
Ximin was immersed in Tian'er's warmth and loveliness: "I forgot that our Tian'er is not a child."
"My Lord, this Second Young Master actually..."
Seeing the second young master of the Xi family sincerely confessing his love to the young lady in the mirror, Wuxin felt a chill inexplicably in his heart. He stole a glance at his master's face. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he secretly cried out in his heart, God knows how the master would kill this kid.
"Hmph," there was an astonishing silence in Xiye's body, which gave people a feeling of extreme depression, as if the air was filled with roars, as if to tear someone's heartbeat apart.
"Wuxin, this magic mirror is indeed a good thing." Xiye's mouth curled up slightly.
"Thanks to the Lord's thoughtful consideration, this mirror is simply the monologue of the human heart." Wuxin looked at Xiye with some worry.
Xiye nodded, "Wuxin, you can do whatever you want."
Wuxin's expression brightened, he bowed his head in agreement and then walked out.
"At the end of the corridor, Westminster kept talking to the wall pillar, and his behavior was quite strange, completely different from his usual handsome and sunny appearance.
"Brother Ximin, what are you doing?" I was scared when I saw his strange behavior.
"Brother Ximin, I'm here." Seeing that he was still holding the pillar tightly, I became a little anxious.
"Ah." Ximin suddenly turned around with a start, looking at Bai Tian, who was still a little girl, in confusion and at a loss, looking at herself timidly.
"What's wrong with me?" Looking at the girl in front of her who was still as delicate as before, Westminster shook her head awkwardly.
I pouted and complained, "I don't know. I just saw you hugging the pillar and calling me. I was clearly behind you. Didn't Uncle Jiu let me live in Xuanyu Pavilion as well? Have you forgotten?"
"Well, ah, nothing. I just seemed to see you in front of me, but I didn't expect you to suddenly appear behind me." Westminster wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"I just fell asleep in the attic. I haven't slept so comfortably in a long time. I like it here very much." I stretched and yawned, wanting to lie down again.
"Falling asleep?" Ximin was stunned.
"Well, I'm so sleepy." I yelled with a frown.
"There are many rooms in Xuanyu Pavilion. You can choose a good bed for yourself." Westminster rubbed his eyes tiredly.
I nodded and suddenly pointed behind him.
Ximin looked back in confusion, then asked, "What's going on?"
Looking at those down-and-out people twisting their bodies and doing strange movements, I widened my eyes in curiosity, finding it both funny and strange.
Ximin only felt a slight chill on her back, and looking at Baitian's eyes, she knew there must be something dirty. "Tian'er, what did you see?"
"Well, nothing serious, just some naughty pranks." I yawned and shook my head.
Westminster frowned, realizing why she had behaved strangely just now. It must be those dirty guys playing tricks on her.
