The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation

Duan Tianyang felt a little impatient when he saw the masked man was so embarrassed. He asked coldly, "You have tied me up like this, are you still worried that I will do something else?"

The masked man seemed to sense his dissatisfaction. He slowly walked to Duan Tianyang and sat down quietly.

There was only silence between the two of them for a moment.

The masked man seemed to be accustomed to this kind of loneliness. He often gazed at the starry sky alone, enjoying the tranquility.

But to Duan Tianyang, this silence was like an invisible shackle that made him feel depressed.

Finally, Duan Tianyang couldn't help but break the silence. He asked tentatively, "Don't you have any interesting topics to talk about? For example, does Ling Ziyan have any unknown secrets?"

The masked man shook his head gently, his voice low and weak: "I seldom talk to people."

Duan Tianyang's curiosity was aroused, and he continued to ask: "Do others think you are ugly and don't want to get close to you? Then how do you spend your days?"

The masked man lowered his head, his voice revealing an indescribable loneliness: "Before the master assigned me to protect the princess, I lived alone in a place and rarely contacted the outside world."

Duan Tianyang guessed in his heart that perhaps it was after Ling Ziyan encountered an assassin last time that Yi Tiancai decided to let the masked man stay by her side to protect her.

From the few words spoken by the masked man, it seems that he was adopted by Yi Tian since he was a child, but because of his strange appearance, Yi Tian has always hidden him from outsiders.

Duan Tianyang couldn't help but ask curiously: "In a place as big as the City Lord's Mansion, you should have a chance to communicate with the servants, right? At least you have to eat, right?"

"Someone will indeed deliver food, but I don't know who it is." The masked man answered simply.

Duan Tianyang looked disgusted. What’s the difference between this and going to jail?

The masked man lowered his head. He seemed not used to being too close to others. His voice, as pure as a spring, was a little low: "You are the first person who is willing to talk to me so much."

If Duan Tianyang wasn't too bored, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to him. He only responded with a few words casually out of boredom.

It turns out that the masked man had rarely interacted with others before and was isolated from the world. Although he had special skills, in interpersonal emotional exchanges and daily interactions, he was like a blank piece of paper, pure and innocent.

Duan Tianyang suddenly thought of his martial arts, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "You said you didn't join any sect, then who is your master?"

A trace of barely perceptible sadness flashed across the masked man's eyes. He replied, "My master has passed away. He taught me all the martial arts, and nothing else. Before he died, he left me this Wanxiang and two soul-restoring pills."

As he spoke, he gently stroked the wrist guard on his wrist, as if feeling the final warmth from his master.

Soul-restoring pills? Could they be the two pills he and Hua Duoer took?

It should be!

No wonder the masked man was hesitant when giving the pill to Hua Duoer. It turned out that it was a rare elixir left by his master.

Duan Tianyang felt a little guilty. In fact, the masked man's life experience was quite pitiful, but he would never sympathize with the masked man.

Duan Tianyang decided not to dwell on the masked man's past. He changed the subject and said, "Oh, I'm really starving."

Hearing this, the masked man took out a cake from his bag.

Duan Tianyang glanced at it, his face full of disgust: "You still eat this thing? This thing is not for human consumption at all, it's simply pig food. Haven't you ever tasted delicious food like roast chicken and braised beef?"

The masked man held the cake, looking a little embarrassed: "If you don't eat it, you will have no strength."

Duan Tianyang couldn't understand it. After all, he was Ling Ziyan's bodyguard, so why did he eat this kind of thing every day?

Ling Ziyan is so ruthless, no wonder she has such a stubborn personality!

"You actually want me to eat something that even a dog wouldn't touch. Humph, if you like, eat it yourself. Don't even think about forcing it on me. I'd rather go to sleep."

Duan Tianyang had personally experienced the disgusting taste of stinky cakes once, and if someone asked him to eat it again, he would rather die than agree.

So he simply lay down on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.

The masked man just stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.

Duan Tianyang woke up the next day and found that he was still tied up by the masked man, but the man was no longer around.

He began to curse at the masked man. Suddenly, the masked man came running from a distance with a few drops of sweat on his face. It was obvious that he had run quite a distance.

He looked a little tired, and said softly to Duan Tianyang: "You woke up, I thought you would sleep a little longer."

Duan Tianyang responded rudely: "Where the hell have you been so early in the morning? I'm almost starving to death, how could I not wake up?"

The masked man gently wiped the sweat off his face, then unfolded the oil paper in his hand. Inside was a roasted chicken leg, which made Duan Tianyang salivate. He asked in surprise, "Where did this come from?"

The masked man was quite pleased with Duan Tianyang's reaction. He smiled and said, "You said you wanted to eat roast chicken, so I found a small town nearby. It happened to sell it there, so I..."

Before he could finish his words, Duan Tianyang grabbed the chicken leg and started devouring it.

The tenderness and juiciness of the chicken leg instantly dissipated the hunger he had felt in the past few days, as if he were reborn.

He gnawed on it with relish until only bones were left, and he still sucked on them with gusto.

The masked man took out his cake from the small bag beside him, and while tasting it, he looked at Duan Tianyang's satisfied expression. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise and he revealed a smile.

Duan Tianyang keenly captured the subtle changes in his expression, which made him feel that the masked man was really silly and cute.

Since he rarely interacts with others, any little kindness from others will make him feel flattered, and he will do his best to repay your kindness.

His attitude of trying to please you is like that of a forgotten stray dog. As long as you are a little gentle to it, it will wag its tail wildly, as if expressing its gratitude and joy to you.

Duan Tianyang has always been clear about gratitude and grudges. As his brother, he will give everything for you without hesitation, even at the cost of his life.

But if you offend him, he will remember it.

Whether in the real world or in this world he traveled to, the most humiliating moment for him was when he was with the masked man.

He would never forget the scene of himself kneeling in front of the masked man.

Therefore, he devised a clever revenge plan last night, which was to pretend to be nice to the masked boyfriend.

The masked man is simple and innocent. No matter Duan Tianyang asks him questions or directly, he will tell the truth.

Duan Tianyang's false friendliness often surprised the masked man, and then he would make excuses about what he wanted to eat or what he wanted, and asked the masked man to serve him in the scorching sun or in severe weather.
