Empress, we got promoted! Thank you so much for taking care of us, we caught several powerful things!" The adorable little imp giggled and said to me.I wryly smiled and said, “I’m truly sorry, I migh...As soon as I stepped out of the mud-brick house, I realized that the entire exterior was covered in bundles of talismans, connected to the large trees on all four sides. The whole thing formed a huge barrier, with layers upon layers that seemed impossible to count!

Qiyun… can you hear my voice

This week's wind carries a strange scent, I seem to have walked into a space parallel to the world.

I saw the zombie-maker's village nestled in the mountainside, but now it was littered with limbs and pieces, with two giant zombies chained up, fighting a gang of men with silver armlets.

"What kind of spell are you chanting" the man carrying me blurted out.

"...No, no, I'm afraid. I was just thinking about my husband." I said cautiously.

He carried me, and to keep my balance I had to grasp his neck with one hand, or else he'd shoulder me in the stomach.

"Liar," he sneered. "So the words of beautiful women are not to be believed."

"If you're calling for help, even if you shout a thousand times, it won't do any good. This place... isn't a world of 'people' anymore..."

His tone suddenly turned chilling, my heart pounded in my chest, I was so scared that I couldn't even speak. But him carrying me like this, and the scattered limbs everywhere... it made me want to vomit.

My gagging sound made him frown. He growled in a low voice, "Hold it in! If you puke on me, I'll throw you into the Thames!"

The Mi River... it really exists.

Why aren't these marked on the map Shouldn't something like this be impossible to erase

Those under the witch king’s command were ecstatic to see him carrying me out. At his whistle, everyone boarded the ship.

He put me in the hold, his men jeering as they slammed the hatch shut. I was left with him and only darkness.

His eyes held a deep, azure blue.

Seriously, it's not human.

"How did you get a child in your belly" He stared at me intently.

This... shouldn't we just not say it

"Be clear, I'll decide your fate depending on the situation. It's best not to deceive me, woman. The word 'witch,' it reaches the heavens above, connects with the earth below, and in between—"

"The Middle Kingdom people." I replied.

"It seems you're not an ordinary person either. A yin-yang fetus isn't something anyone can carry." He said coldly.

I took a deep breath to calm myself. This Shaman didn't seem cruel and brutal, or he wouldn't be speaking to me so kindly right now.

I withheld information about Jiang Qiyun's identity and only mentioned the child's background.

He sat cross-legged in front of me, arms crossed and silent as I finished speaking.

"How did you end up with your spooky husband" he suddenly asked.

I was stunned, my scalp tingling: “... Is this private or not”

"Privacy" he sneered. "I could throw you out right now, and those hillbillies outside would be delighted to see you. You're talking to me about privacy"

This fellow, as expected, is not a good person.

I bit my lip and replied, “Just like that…”

"How are you"

“You…”

"Answer me, or be thrown out. You choose." His voice was icy.

I dare not curse him in my heart. People in this line of work are incredibly perceptive and he would definitely hear any curses.

I had to grit my teeth and say, "… I don't remember the specifics. There was a period before where I almost did it every day... Later on, I was afraid of aggravating my condition, so I did it much less."

Is that a complete answer What does this guy want to know!

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly sneered, “So you’re saying you’re not afraid of evil spirits entering your body at all”

…Was he wondering about this You could just ask him directly!!

I was so angry my face turned red! This guy looks muscular, but he's really mean.

"Hey, woman, what's your name" he asked.

"... You go first. I heard your last name was Mu, and I thought you were from our family..."

"My name is Mu Wanchen, Mu from bathing, Wan from connecting arms, and Chen from stars." He said in a deep voice.

Your name doesn't match your image at all...

"He said," he glared at me coldly.

"My name is Mu Xiaoqiao. Unlike your Mu, mine means... adoration and envy." I said as I drew in the air with my hand.

"...I can read," he gritted out.

I am so embarrassed. I really thought he wasn't very literate, after all, this image is so... rough and tough.

He pondered for a long time, then said, “Well, although you already have a man and can’t be my wife, but… You’re not afraid of evil spirits entering your body. Why don’t you give birth to a child for me, and I’ll let you go.”

"Pfft! What kind of conditions are these!" I roared. "Why are all of you here so messed up! Don't you see people as people! Having children, having children... Have you even asked a woman's opinion!"

He stared at me coldly, the blue in his eyes deepening.

I bit my lip, no, I need to stay calm...

But some things need to be made clear.

"My lord Shaman King, if you force me, I would rather give up my child and my life."

It's no big deal if I die and start over. I can just jump back into the well, anyway Jiang Qiyun will find me. Besides, waiting another ten or twenty years is better than this.

He snorted coldly: "You think I'm interested in you If it wasn't for…"

Why

"You... you're the Witch King, aren't you" I ventured cautiously. "Don't you rule over a lot of villages Picking out a few beauties shouldn't be a problem! I bet lots of people would volunteer."

He shook his head: "...I've tried, but no one could live to the second day. I'm too lazy to find ordinary women anymore."

"Mu Xia Qiao, you think I have any plot No! It's only because my gu is a male and female pair. The female gu can't find a suitable host, so it hasn't been able to become the Gu King until now." He glared at me huffily.

I suddenly feel so much safer, it's great! This guy has a bottom line after all!

"But you can help me, I'm full of poison, but none of it is as sinister as yours. Since you're fine, then you should—"

"Shut up! I was also seriously ill! It's just that later my husband changed his approach, and after two years, he helped me get used to the yin energy."

He frowned immediately upon hearing that, two years

"I'm just an ordinary person, with no cultivation or magical abilities. I'm incredibly weak, which is why I'm constantly targeted and tormented…" I couldn't help but tear up.

A mortal, yet entangled with a deity.

This must be karma, right

"Why are you crying" he sneered. "If you don't give birth, you don't have to. But you have to give me some conditions before I let you go."

"......You, a witch king, such a legendary figure, still come to me asking for conditions What could I possibly offer" I frowned at him.

He sneered, "Marry me, and you won't be able to harbor the female Gu worm. Have children You'd rather die. Then... just spend a few days with me!"

Get out!

I gritted my teeth, and he sneered, "Don't want to play Without my protection, try walking out of this basin in one piece..."

"Let's go, we're here—"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!otten married yet, so I wouldn't want to become a monk. He kept trying to persuade me, so I had no choice but to be a lay disciple. This time he sent me to help.""Are you a descendant of that old monk...
