Chapter 37 part 1
A roar sounded in the air . I looked up and saw gold lights, falling down like snowflakes . The bloodthirsty spell had been broken .
I saw Chu Kon’s figure standing atop the snowy mountain, his long hair fluttering in the wind with his his robes . I couldn’t see his face, but it was unneeded . His silhouette alone was enough to leave me thunderstruck . I could feel how hard my heart was thumping inside my chest .
That thing…why was he posing in such a beautiful manner…
Suddenly, Chu Kong moved and turned in my direction .
Zihui, who was beside me, smiled, waved at him, and shouted, “Shifu, long time no see . ”
I couldn’t see Chu Kong’s expression, but the ground beneath my feet trembled . Zihui quietly put away the hand that was still on my waist and, with a face full of smiles, said, “Oops, I didn’t realize that Shifu is a god now . Looks like I can’t afford to mess with him . ”
I narrowed my eyes and looked at Zihui . So this was how it was; everyone was an animal that bullied the weak but was afraid of the strong .
“Whoever’s destroying the spell needs to die!”
The demon hadn’t left yet . He stood there shouting up at the sky .
I pointed at the long haired demon and asked Zihui, “What does that mean? The spell has already been broken . Does he think that if he shouts loud enough, we’ll be so scared that we’d lose all our nerves and drop dead?”
Zihui smiled with squinted eyes . “A Xiang lady is still just as funny and lovely as I remember . ”
“So noisy!”
Chu Kong’s shout came from far away . His body shifted, and the next time it appeared again was above the head of the long haired demon .
The long haired demon immediately jumped to get to Chu Kong .
Chu Kong only stood still . He didn’t hide or try to dodge . An immortal seal appeared in his hand, and he put this above the long haired demon . It stiffened and immediately stopped .
Zihui nodded in approval . “En, Shifu really has some tactical skills . ”
I was excited and ran to Chu Kong .
“Well done, Chu Kong! Let’s just kill and eat him! I’ll dismember him . You go make fire to barbecue him!”
“A Xiang…lady…”
I left Zihui’s voice far behind and ran to the long haired demon, stroking his smooth fur .
“This fur will be able to get a high price . I’ll ponder about where to knife him, but it can’t be here . ”
The light in my eyes was really quite brilliant . Chu Kong suddenly came over and grabbed my hand, pulling it away from the fur .
“I was the one who caught him . You’re not allowed to eat him . ”
“Why?!”
I was very angry . Chu Kong took one glance at me before looking at Zihui, who had just arrived . Then, he spat, “Don’t you have someone who’s willing to help you? You can let him catch one for you . This is what I’ve caught . I won’t let you eat it . ”
Zihui coughed twice . It seemed that he was quite embarrassed to have been caught in this quarrel .
Chu Kong glared at Zihui . At this point, I couldn’t be bothered with him and only glared at Chu Kong . I freely expressed my dissatisfaction about such childlike behavior .
“Between us, is there still a “you” and “me”? I scalp his fur, and the money that I get for it will be spent by us . I cut his meat and roast it; won’t that be eaten by us? Do you think it’s a fun joke to act up like this?!”
Chu Kong thought for a while and then he half turned to look at me . “Us?”
I was dazed and surprised . “Who else would it be?”
Hearing that answer, Chu Kong finally fully turned and looked at me . His mouth curved up, but he quickly suppressed it and, with a straight face, said, “Humph, alright, I’ll reluctantly let you cut it . Xiaoye wants the meat of the spine . You must not cut that part badly . ”
This guy…
I didn’t even bother to scold someone who got angry every three days . Instead, I turned my attention to the long haired demon and circled around his body . I felt that I should cut him from his belly . I told Chu Kong, “Turn him over . ”
Chu Kong was about to do it, when Zihui suddenly said, “I think…”
“There’s no part for you,” Chu Kong interrupted him and looked at him coldly . “Xiaoye is generous . I won’t bother with the past debt . Now, you must go and hide someplace far away . Don’t let xiaoye see you again . ”
Zihui sighed . “What I want to say is that this is a demon . You eating it, isn’t that a bit…”
I gave him a strange look . “Otherwise, what do we do with it?”
Chu Kong also looked at Zihui strangely . “Otherwise, what do we do with it? This is a demon, not an animal . He guards this bloodthirsty spell; who knows how many people’s lives he has harmed . Eating it won’t be a loss . ”
Chu Kong said it like it was the right thing to do . Staying in my company for so long had clearly done him some good; his level had greatly improved!
Chu Kong pulled up his sleeves . With a little strength, he turned the long haired demon over, letting the legs face the sky . I jumped on the long haired demon’s belly . Then, I stuck my hand out and said, “Knife . ”
Chu Kong stretched his hand out at Zihui and said, “Knife . ”
Zihui sighed . “I meant, eating something you don’t know isn’t a good habit . ”
Still, while he spoke, he took out a dagger from his sleeve . He wanted to hand it to Chu Kong, but retracted his hand at the last second . Then, he said, “If you use my dagger, it should add at least a few safety measures to your cooking process…”
Chu Kong’s expression turned cold . I hurriedly went in front of Zihui and said, “En,en, good . Later, I’ll cut the front legs for you . ”
Zihui willingly handed the dagger over .
The first cut would be in the middle of the demon’s collarbone . I raised my hand and was about to stab when the demon managed to say, “Broke…the bloodthirsty spell, the lord…will not…let you off . ”
I turned and exchanged a look with Chu Kong . Then I poked the demon’s neck with the tip of the dagger . “Come on, tell me honestly . Who is your lord? Where does he live?”
The demon no longer said anything . I exchanged a look again with Chu Kong . Chu Kong stroked his chin and said, “If he’s acting like this, someone must’ve put him under a spell . We won’t get anything from him . Just kill and eat it . ”
“Wait,” Zihui shouted . “You…really want to eat it? I thought you were just simply threatening it…”
I glanced at Zihui . “Do I look like I’m pretending?”
I blinked once and brought the dagger down with a “shua” sound . Blood spattered .
With a small spell, a flame began to spin and casted the shadows of three people onto the snow . The demon’s meat was fresh and plump . Chu Kong and I lied on the snow with round stomachs . Only Zihui, holding the legs that I promised him, didn’t move . Zihui sighed . “You really ate it…”
Dissatisfied, Chu Kong said, “Do you have any comments?”
He paused and seemed to grow angrier . “You’ve been standing there for so long… What do you mean by that? Who told you to come? Who let you stay here? Go away!”
A snowball directly hit my forehead . I was stunned and glared at Chu Kong . His glance toward me was cold, and he humphed before he said, “I think the you of now is no different from that silly Xiang . ”
I also humphed coldly . “The you of now is just the same as that lifetime! Proud, arrogant, and likes to bully people!”
Chu Kong turned and glared at me . He frowned tightly . I didn’t want to be outdone by him and also glared at him . As we were confronting each other, Zihui suddenly laughed and said, “As long as you two are acting like this…other people can easily come between you . ”
Chu Kong didn’t say anything, grabbed some snow, and threw it at Zihui . Zihui calmly dodged it .
“Most women like mature and calm men . Shifu acting like this isn’t good . A Xiang lady, isn’t it right?”
Faced with this question, I went silent for a while . Then, I straightforwardly said, “It’s true that I used to think like this in the past . ”
I looked at Chu Kong’s angry face, then I turned and looked at the sky . “But now, I think that everyone has their own personality . Someone’s personality is also not bad . ”
My cheeks felt warm . I paused and then continued . “And it’s quite unique . ”
