Seven Unfortunate Lifetimes (Love You Seven Times)

Chapter 46

Following the purple pearl, I went out of the boundaries of Lu Hua Mountain. My heart felt strange. It was just a missing mortal soul of Chu Kong. How could it run so fast? Chasing till midnight, I felt a faint burst of a demon’s energy coming at me.

I once heard Yue Lao say that there was deer-horse like demon who ate scattered souls. Could it be that Chu Kong’s soul……had been eaten by this guy?!

My heart was frightened. I sped up my cloud and went straight into the sky. I flew to the demon. The deer-horse demon looked like it could endure a thing or two. With shaking head, he hurried to me. It felt like he was in joy. If you think about it, it was right. A demon that only ate souls could be that powerful. At this point, I didn’t know what he was chewing on and wanted to gulp it down to his stomach.

The purple pearl hanging on my neck, brightened. My heart became ruthless. I shouted: “Spit it out!”

I kicked the deer-horse demon severely on the side. This kick came suddenly, the demon screamed loudly. Many souls flew out of his mouth. The souls drifted away with the wind. I immediately chased the souls that were drifted away. The deer-horse demon behind me chased after me while screaming. I didn’t have a mind to mind about him. I followed the purple pearl and rapidly chased after the souls.

A scattered immortal soul could float really fast. It didn’t take long before I caught up. I read the spell to collect the immortal soul. Chu Kong’s immortal soul obediently went into the purple pearl. The horse-deer demon also sounded in my ears. I dodged sideways and didn’t want to fight with him. I raised my hand and said: “Cloud come.”

The cloud of the midnight rapidly came to me. The cloud wrapped the deer-horse demon in the direction of the sky and the sun. The sunlight blinded the deer-horse demon. I turned around, ran away and left him far behind me.

I clutched the purple pearl. In the dark, I finally returned to Lu Hua Mountain. I followed the dark road and walked home. The closer I came to the wooden house I made, the more profound the depressed feeling became. The words that meatball Kong said before he left the house echoed in my ears. He didn’t want to cultivate. He didn’t want to become the celestial Chu Kong of the past. He…..only wanted to live freely in the human realm.

Since he had already said that, what significance did the thing I do now have? Using all my power to search for the souls he didn’t want. Using my best efforts to teach him cultivation……

I suddenly had a shame that would leave my face hot and my ass cold.

I looked up at the moon in the sky. I turned and walked in the direction of the forest of Lu Hua mountain.

During the day the little demons of Lu Hua Mountain had been beaten by me. During the night a lot disappeared. All the way I only heard insects. Unconsciously, I walked to the lake of the mountain. I looked at the other side of the lake and was lost in thoughts. How many years ago had it been,  when I was a tiger did a wild boar appear at the other side of the lake and quietly stared at me……

Even in such a depressed mood now, when I thought about that scene, I laughed with a “pu” sound. I laughed alone at the lake while stomping my feet. But the night was really too cold, letting me gradually close my mouth.

That Chu Kong……who bickered and fought with me, maybe would never come back.

I lowered my eyes. My mood was difficult to describe.

I walked up along the side of the lake. The sound of the lake tinkled in my ears. The sound of the water made me feel somewhat lively and cheerful. I found a place with grace and sat down. I quietly stared at the sky full of stars. For the first time, I felt that the future was confusing. If I was not obsessed over Chu Kong anymore, then what should I go do? How were the days like before I met Chu Kong? I actually couldn’t remember them anymore.
