Three times married to Yama

Why is Yan Jinyue here?

I looked down at the earring on my lapel and remembered the note he had left me.

It seems that the earring can transmit the sensed danger to him.

I was originally planning to take action against Aunt Hui, but since he's here, I'll just have to hold back a bit longer.

At this moment, Yan Jinyue was wearing a black silk nightgown, her black hair was loose, and her indifferent eyes held a hint of listlessness.

He was wearing the same earring as the one on my collar on his left ear; it seems they must be a pair.

He walked up to me, his figure looming over me, his voice cold and clear, "Didn't I tell you that you could use your spiritual flames to communicate with me when we're in danger? Why didn't you listen?"

It's true that I was in danger, but I could handle it myself. I didn't even consider asking him for help.

However, my eyes are a little sore now, and I can't help but blink gently, letting the tears I had been holding back fall.

A tear fell at his feet. He looked down and tilted his head slightly.

I replied, "I don't want to trouble you."

This is the truth.

"You cried?"

I didn't say anything, intending to feign pitifulness, but before I knew it, tears were welling up a bit too much.

After a moment of silence, his voice rang out again, "During our marriage, if you encounter any danger, you can call me, and I will not let anything happen to you."

"After all, you are my wife in name only. As long as you don't have any other thoughts, I will try my best to meet your reasonable requests."

Yan Jinyue's words stirred something within me. I must say, as a husband in name only, Yan Jinyue is a qualified one.

However, he always says that I can't have any other thoughts, and I've decided to ask him about that. Otherwise, if I accidentally step on his landmine one day, he might turn me into a memorial tablet and put me in his room.

"Your Excellency, if I may be so bold as to ask, what exactly do you mean by 'other thoughts'?" I asked cautiously.

Upon hearing the question, his gaze instantly locked onto me, and he answered frankly in response to my sincere look and question.

"Don't fall in love with me."

His words made me frown. So all my previous ninety-eight brides were killed by Yan Jinyue because they fell in love with him?

But there's nothing wrong with love itself. If you don't love them, just drive them away. Why kill them?

"What? You have a problem with that?" His voice turned cold when he saw me frown.

I shook my head. "No, I just think you're overthinking it."

I admit that Yan Jinyue's temperament and appearance are unparalleled in the human world, but for me, his only function right now is to prolong my life.

I would never risk my life for love.

He'd better not show up for the next three years. I can just get a divorce then, so I don't have to live in fear every time we meet.

Yan Jinyue nodded lightly, his gaze turning to Aunt Hui behind me.

"She poses a great threat to you; perhaps I can take her away."

Should we just take Aunt Hui away?

Although I really hope Yan Jinyue will take Aunt Hui away directly, Aunt Hui knows my true identity. If she reveals to Yan Jinyue that I am not Qin Zhi but Lan Yin, then I will be doomed.

Amidst my turbulent thoughts, I said to Yan Jinyue with righteous indignation, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord, but she committed a crime in the mortal realm and should be punished by the laws of the mortal world. You just need to render her incapacitated, and leave the rest to me."

Yan Jinyue pondered for two seconds, then nodded. "Yes, that makes sense."

He raised his palm and flicked it towards Aunt Hui, and something white was caught in his hand.

"Alright, she won't be able to resist at all, you can do whatever you want with her," Yan Jinyue replied.

"Thank you, Your Excellency."

The surrounding blue light faded, and Yan Jinyue's figure also became fainter.

Just when I thought he was about to leave, he suddenly said to me, "I will come to see you again in half a month."

Seriously? You're coming to see me again?

I feel like my brows are so furrowed they could trap a fly. What does he want from me now?

I didn't want to spend too much time with Yan Jinyue, because the longer we spent together, the easier it would be to expose my true colors.

As Yan Jinyue left, the feeling of being imprisoned also disappeared.

Aunt Hui, who had been frozen in place, collapsed limply to the ground, staring at me with horrified disbelief in her eyes.

"What...what did you do to me?"

I replied innocently, "Aunt Hui, I didn't do anything."

I'm telling the truth.

The short-haired woman standing opposite was still holding the talisman. Once she was freed from her frozen state, she shouted, "Don't hurt that little girl! You want the talisman?... Hey? Oh my god, why are you lying on the ground?"

She suddenly felt very confused. "What just happened?"

I rushed to the short-haired woman and hid behind her. "Sister, save me! I don't know what happened, she suddenly lay down on the ground, and she seems unable to move."

The short-haired woman patted my shoulder reassuringly, "Don't be afraid, I'm a public servant, protecting you is my duty."

Because of Aunt Hui's previous behavior and her assault on the police, she was arrested by the officials who arrived later.

Aunt Hui kept cursing and swearing at me, but I pretended not to hear her.

Having killed so many people, she'll never get out once she's inside.

The other two bodies were dug out by the short-haired woman and her men. Later I learned that the short-haired woman's name was He Chu, and she was a police officer.

Perhaps He Chu had doubts about what I had said before, but since the suspect, Aunt Hui, had already been arrested, she didn't ask me about my dream anymore.

After I cooperated with the statement, He Chu let me go home. When I left, I secretly took the talisman paper that I had peeled off the corpse.

These talismans were suppressing the souls of the Tian family. I burned the talismans to release the suppressed souls inside.

The Tian family suffered an undeserved misfortune. Aunt Hui came to Changyue Village to find me originally because she wanted to obtain the Hundred Ghosts Record. However, when she saw that I did not have the Hundred Ghosts Record, she had other evil intentions.

She randomly selected a family, used the ghosts she kept to kill them, buried their bodies, and created a soul-trapping array around Changyue Village, attempting to kill everyone in Changyue Village to refine her evil magic!

But she never expected that I would find the body she had buried.

She was very unwilling to accept it; she always felt that the Hundred Ghosts Record was on her.

Of course, these are all things that happened later; He Chu told me about them afterward.

Before leaving Changyue Village, I held a memorial service for the Tian family for one night. If Aunt Hui hadn't come looking for me and hadn't been so heartless, they could still be living a good life.

I am somewhat involved in the cause and effect of this tragedy.

The future will eventually come to an end in other ways.

As dawn broke, I picked up my suitcase and left the place where I had lived for twenty years.

I, Lan Yin, am about to embark on a new chapter in my life.
