Chapter 381: Si Mobai’s Confession

Feng Tianlan shook her head and said, “Yunzhu, it’s nothing . Let me help him inside so he can rest . ” The red patch between her eyebrows had been as caused by the natal contract . It would be fine after two days .

Luo Yunzhu stood aside, looking at the two of them as they went into the room . Now that they both had red skin dots their eyebrows, they looked even more like a couple .

Feng Tianlan helped Si Mobai lie down and fed him some water . He was a bit annoyed that he had to lie down right after regaining consciousness .

“How do you know about the natal contract?” Feng Tianlan asked and sat by the bed . The natal contract was very ancient . Initially, the agreement had only existed between humans and divine beasts . Later on, because the number of heavenly creatures had decreased (or some other reason), the contract was now forged between tow humans .

However, when a natal contract was signed between two humans, several harsh terms were involved .

The stronger party could not forcefully sign a single-sided natal contract with a weaker party . That would be a misuse of the deal because the weak party would die if the strong one did . Therefore, such a contract could not succeed without the more vulnerable party’s consent .

Another type was the one that Si Mobai had signed, where the stronger party forcefully agreed to a single-sided contract with the weaker party . However, this was a protection contract . Therefore, the weaker party’s consent was not required .

Si Mobai peered into Feng Tianlan’s beautiful face and replied, “Because I am not from the Guiyuan Continent . ”

Hearing these words, Feng Tianlan’s heart clicked . She looked at Si Mobai in astonishment . He was not from the Guiyuan Continent?

“Did Si Ming come by when I was unconscious?”

“Yes,” Feng Tianlan said . Her vision was focused on the Zhusha dot on Si Mobai’s forehead again . His powerful spiritual force was sealed once again .

“Si Ming is not my father . He’s my subordinate . ”

“Uh… . ” Feng Tianlan was stunned for a while . Finally, she muttered, “You don’t have to tell me anything more . ”

This was his secret . He had no obligation to reveal it to her . He may have already entrusted her with too much .

Si Mobai reached out and took Feng Tianlan’s hands . “Lan’er, there are some things that even I do not know . I think you must have known that my Zhusha was a seal . Therefore, when we return to the city this time, I cannot be by your side all the time anymore . ”

“Si Mobai . ”

“There are a lot of things that I do not know . There are also some that I can’t say right now . Si Ming is not our emperor . He is a subordinate who serves us both . ”

Feng Tianlan looked at Si Mobai . She was shocked by his words . Emperor Si Ming was just a subordinate? Then, what was his true identity?

“In the future, just go for it . No matter where I am, as long as you need me, I will instantly appear by your side . ” This was why he’d signed the natal contract with her .

He had broken the seal once before . Even though it had been resealed, and the person who had unsealed it had been killed, he’d still been made vulnerable to detection by the opposition . Therefore, it wouldn’t do either of them much good if he were to continue staying by Feng Tianlan’s side .

He couldn’t protect Lan’er all the time . However, he could sense when her life was in danger and appear beside her . This would also be good for her training .

Feng Tianlan’s eyes sharpened . This matter was making her heart tremble . This was yet another reason why he’d signed the natal contract .

“Si Mobai, don’t treat me so well . I don’t deserve it . ”

Feelings were not meant to be repaid . She couldn’t accept his goodwill so easily . If they were indeed in love, then they would make a double-sided pact rather than a single-sided one .

Right now, it was unfair to Si Mobai to give so much .

Si Mobai smiled faintly and stated, “I like you . If I am not good to you, then whom would I be good to?”

In this world, she was the only girl who could make his heart flutter . She was the only one who could affect his emotions . He was supposed to treat her well because she made him feel the joy of life .
