<h4>Chapter 402: They’re Actually Husband and Wife!</h4>


    The Soul Calming Beast continued to watch. She saw Sheng Xiao’s memories from when he was 16 to 26 years old. Finally, a special girl appeared in his memories.


    It was a girl called Yu Huang.


    Ever since that ugly monster called Yu Huang appeared in Sheng Xiao’s life, Sheng Xiao’s memories suddenly became exciting and vivid.


    The Soul Calming Beast continued watching. She only stopped when she saw Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang getting married and attending the Saint Tomb together.


    The Soul Calming Beast opened her eyes and stared at Sheng Xiao in the corner with aplicated expression. The disgust and disdain in her eyes disappeared and she became kind.


    “You’re a good man. You can indifferent when facing all sorts of women, but when facing your true love, you can treat her warmly even if she’s ugly.”


    Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang opened their eyes.


    Sheng Xiao told the Soul Calming Beast, “Appearance is our first impression of people, but character is more important than looks. Although my wife’s looks were ruined, she had an unyielding character.”


    After a pause, Sheng Xiao said something sweet. “She’s very attractive to me. The ce where she is is where my gaze stays.”


    Hearing this, the Soul Calming Beast couldn’t help but think of her life, and tears welled up in her eyes.


    The Soul Calming Beast asked sadly, “Why was that little girl called Yu Huang able to meet you, but I couldn’t meet a man who treated me like a treasure?”


    Sheng Xiao couldn’t answer the Soul Calming Beast’s question.


    Sheng Yang suddenly said, “How can that be? Doesn’t Prime Master Tie Feng treat you like a treasure?”


    The Soul Calming Beast suddenly jumped up angrily and scolded in exasperation, “Tie Feng, that bastard, treats me like a treasure? If he really treats me like a treasure, would he lock me in here? How boring is this ce? There’s no man, no sea. I’m so idle that birds are about to grow on my head!”


    Hearing this, Sheng Yang shook her head forcefully and said, “But Prime Master Tie Feng trapped you here to protect you!”


    The Soul Calming Beast was stunned.


    “Protect me?” The Soul Calming Beast frowned and said, “I didn’t do anything evil. What do I need him to protect me?!”


    Sheng Yang told the Soul Calming Beast, “Back then, you ate more than two hundred male cultivators. Because of this, the cultivation world was enraged and rmended that Prime Master Tie Feng kill you. However, Prime Master Tie Feng didn’t kill you and even hid you in the Saint Tomb. Isn’t this to protect you?”


    The Soul Calming Beast was somewhat puzzled. “Is that so?”


    She carefully recalled her first encounter with Prime Master Tie Feng.


    However, after seriously recalling, she realized that she couldn’t remember anything at all. She only remembered that she was the Soul Calming Beast in the Prime Master Tie Feng’s Saint Tomb. She didn’t remember anything else.


    “How strange. I can’t remember the scene of me meeting that bastard Tie Feng.” Something was wrong.


    Sheng Xiao thought of something. He suddenly took out an ancient book from his interspatial ring. This ancient book recorded the life of Prime Master Tie Feng.


    Sheng Xiao opened thest page of the ancient book and saw the words—


    [Year 8004 of the Holy Spirit Continent, Prime Master Tie Feng was ordered to go to the Divine Sea to kill the sea song demon. He was charmed by the sea demon’s singing and fell in love with and married the sea demon. He took his wife and escaped to the distant Xixia Sea.


    Year 8007 of the Holy Spirit Continent, the top ten powerhouses of the Merman Race besieged Prime Master Tie Feng and his wife on the Saint Sun Ind of the Xixia Ocean. After three days and three nights of battle, Prime Master Tie Feng was seriously injured and escaped into the Saint Tomb with his wife. A Prime Master of a generation died regretfully.


    Sheng Xiao was shocked after reading the record.


    So that was it.


    Sheng Xiao handed the ancient book to the Soul Calming Beast. He told him, “Senior, this ancient book records the life and deeds of Prime Master Tie Feng. The author of the ancient book is an elder of the Sheng family, so the contents are definitely true. Senior, you can take a look.”


    After knowing the Soul Calming Beast and Tie Feng’s real identities, Sheng Xiao called the Soul Calming Beast a senior.


    The Soul Calming Beast extended her hoof and stepped on the ancient book. She looked down and awkwardly realized that she didn’t recognize the words on it.


    “The light here is dim, and my vision is bad. Read it for me.” The Soul Calming Beast refused to admit that she was illiterate.


    The Soul Calming Beast kicked the ancient book in front of Sheng Xiao and his sister. Sheng Yang bent down and picked up the ancient book. She read it softly, “In the year 8004 of the Holy Spirit Continent, Prime Master Tie Feng was ordered to go to the Divine Sea to kill the sea demon. He was charmed by the sea demon’s singing and fell in love with her…”


    At this point, Sheng Yang’s face turned pale with shock.


    What?


    The Soul Calming Beast was actually Prime Master Tie Feng’s wife!


    When the sea demon heard this, she immediately shook her head andughed. “What nonsense is this? Me and Tie Feng were married? Heh!” The sea demon pointed in the direction of the main tomb and said sarcastically, “Me and that guy were lovers? What a joke!”


    Sheng Xiao said to Sheng Yang, “Continue.”


    Sheng Yang could only listen to her brother and continue reading. “…A Prime Master died regretfully.”


    After the sea demon heard this recording, she still didn’t believe it.


    She said, “If the two of you want to pass my test and obtain the inheritance of that bastard Tie Feng, you don’t have to fabricate such a story with so many mistakes to deceive me! Me and Tie Feng got married? Hahaha, do you know that only couples who have been married under the witness of the heavens are considered married? All married couples have marriagepacts!”


    The Soul Calming Beastughed out loud. She spun around and shook her head. She asked Sheng Xiao and the others, “Look, do I have a marriagepact?”


    Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang stared at the horn on the Soul Calming Beast’s head in shock.


    Sheng Yang carefully extended her index finger and pointed above the Soul Calming Beast’s head. She swallowed hard and stared at her while saying softly, “Isn’t there a red string tied to your horn?”


    The Soul Calming Beast was stunned.


    She shook her head vigorously, and a red string really fell from her horn. The Soul Calming Beast stared at the red string and was silent for more than ten seconds.


    A momentter, the Soul Calming Beast turned around and looked in the direction where the red string fell.


    The red string started from the horn of the The Soul Calming Beast and extended along the passageway of the Saint Tomb to the depths of the passageway. The Soul Calming Beast hesitated for a moment before moving her hooves and searching in the direction where the red string extended.


    Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang looked at each other and chased after her.


    The three of them passed through the winding passageway and arrived at the tightly shut door of the main tomb. The red string reached into the main tomb through the gap under the door.


    Seeing this scene, the Soul Calming Beast’s body suddenly trembled slightly.


    “No…” The Soul Calming Beast suddenly didn’t dare to approach the door. She was afraid that after the stone door of the main tomb opened, she would see a scene that she couldn’t ept.


    The Soul Calming Beast retreated step by step. She only stopped when she bumped into Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang.


    “Senior, do you really not want to go in and take a look?” Sheng Xiao knew what the Soul Calming Beast was resisting, but he knew better. The more afraid a person was, the more curious they were about that matter.


    The more the Soul Calming Beast didn’t dare to approach the main tomb, the more curious she was about whether the other end of the red string was tied to Prime Master Tie Feng.


    The Soul Calming Beast stared at the door for a long time before roaring angrily.


    “Roar!”


    Upon hearing her angry roar, the tightly shut main tomb door really rumbled as it opened on both sides.


    The Soul Calming Beast looked in the direction where the red line fell and found that the red line extended all the way into the coffin and disappeared.


    Seeing this scene, the Soul Calming Beast understood.


    She and Tie Feng were really husband and wife!


    The Soul Calming Beast walked to the side of the coffin step by step. She pushed open the coffin lid with her hoof, and Prime Master Tie Feng’s corpse appeared in front of her.


    It was unknown what had been done to Prime Master Tie Feng’s body, but he didn’t rot.


    Prime Master Tie Feng was wearing a long ck robe with a few red maple leaves embroidered on it. At his cor, someone had even written a crooked word with a red thread—


    Ying.


    Ying!


    At this moment, the Soul Calming Beast seemed to have heard a man shouting behind her, “Ah Ying.”


    Ah Ying.


    Ah Ying.


    His voice was gentle and affectionate.


    The Soul Calming Beast stared at Prime Master Tie Feng’s face. The memories that Prime Master Tie Feng had deliberately erased were all recalled—


    She recalled the scene when she first met Prime Master Tie Feng.


    It was a bright and clean night. She stood on the beach of an uninhabited ind and sang to the moon. In a daze, she seemed to see a ck shadow flying down from the full moon above her.


    At first, she thought that she had seen wrongly.


    However, when that person flew closer and closer, the Soul Calming Beast finally dared to believe that it was a person. The Soul Calming Beast immediately stopped singing and stared warily at the man who had suddenly descended beside her.


    The man held arge knife in his hand. He stood on the beach and tilted his head to smile at the Soul Calming Beast. He said, “Your singing is very beautiful. What kind of demon beast are you? I’ve never seen someone like you.”


    The Soul Calming Beast had met more than two hundred men, but Tie Feng was the first to see her true appearance without showing any disdain.


    The Soul Calming Beast blinked her beautiful eyes and whispered, “Soul Calming Beast.”


    “You can speak?” Tie Feng said curiously, “But among the sea demons, other than merfolk, aren’t the other sea demons unable to speak?”


    The Soul Calming Beast exined, “I’m a Soul Calming Beast. The Soul Calming Beast n is a divine demon. After marriage, we can transform into human form.”


    “I see.” Prime Master Tie Feng asked her, “Your songs can pacify people?”


    “Yeah.”


    Prime Master Tie Feng sat down on the beach. He held his saber with one hand and pressed his right index finger against his temples. He said with a headache, “More than thirty years ago, I was injured in a huge battle. My soul was severely damaged, and my head hurts every night.”


    After saying that, Prime Master Tie Feng suddenly took out a piece of mung bean cake.


    He handed the mung bean cake to the Soul Calming Beast and said with a smile, “You’ve never eaten green bean cake before, right? I’ll use the green bean cake in exchange for you to sing me a song. What do you think?”


    The Soul Calming Beast stared at the light green pastry and smelled the sweetness of the pastry. She nodded.


    She opened her mouth, and Prime Master Tie Feng handed the mung bean cake to her.


    The Soul Calming Beast ate in a hurry. Before she could taste anything, she swallowed the green bean cake. After eating, the Soul Calming Beast looked at Prime Master Tie Feng and couldn’t help but ask, “Is there anything else?”


    Prime Master Tie Feng immediately smiled.


    Prime Master Tie Feng wasn’t very handsome. He looked imposing and resolute, but when he smiled, he became more lively.


    Prime Master Tie Feng deliberately tempted her. “If you sing for me again tomorrow night, I’ll give you another piece.”


    The Soul Calming Beast felt that this was a good deal. “Alright!” The Soul Calming Beast squatted beside Prime Master Tie Feng and sang for him.


    The Soul Calming Beast’s song sounded, and the entire Divine Sea became quiet. As Prime Master Tie Feng listened to her song, his aching head actually felt much better.


    After the song, the sky was about to brighten.


    Prime Master Tie Feng hadn’t had such a beautiful and peaceful night for many years. The fatigued look on his face faded a little.


    Thus, Prime Master Tie Feng generously handed another piece of mung bean cake to the Soul Calming Beast.


    The Soul Calming Beast was ttered and opened her mouth to eat the mung bean cake.


    This time, the Soul Calming Beast finally tasted the sweetness. The mung bean cake was very delicious, and the Soul Calming Beast couldn’t bear to finish it in one bite, so she slowly chewed and savored it carefully.


    The Soul Calming Beast knew that since this human had rewarded her with a piece of mung bean cake, there must be a condition.


    As expected, Prime Master Tie Feng, who was beside her, spoke. He said, “Little beast, you ate my mung bean cake, so can you do me a favor?”


    There were indeed conditions.


    The Soul Calming Beast nodded. “What favor?” She had something in her mouth, so her voice sounded a little muffled.


    Prime Master Tie Feng asked the Soul Calming Beast, “You grew up in the Divine Sea, right?”


    “Yes,” The Soul Calming Beast said. “I’m a native of the Divine Sea.”


    “Then do you know a sea demon?” Afraid that the Soul Calming Beast didn’t know what a sea demon was, Prime Master Tie Feng specially added, “It’s a sea demon singer. It’s said that she’s very beautiful, like a fairy, and her figure is very enchanting.”


    The Soul Calming Beast swallowed a mouthful of green bean cake.


    She asked warily, “W-Why are you looking for a sea demon?”


    Tie Feng said, “The sea demon is evil by nature and had eaten many human male cultivators. I was ordered to kill her.”


    The Soul Calming Beast was speechless.


    She felt as if the mung bean cake in her mouth was no longer mung bean cake, but her brains.
