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 fly 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 wa chewing 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 and 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 will 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 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 infatuated with 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 .

The purple pear brightened . I hold it . Today I found Chu Kong’s immortal soul . If I give him this immortal soul back, there would only be a mortal soul left before his soul was completed . If by that time, his thoughts were still the same as now……

I’ll go back to Yue Lao and continue to watch the doors for him .

While I was thinking like that, suddenly I heard a voice sobbing on the other side of the lake . This sound was so familiar . I looked up and saw meatball Kong standing at the edge of the other side of the lake with a face full of tears and snot . Facing the moonlight that made his face sparkling, I saw him crying so pitifully . I was startled .

I stood up and called: “Chu Kong, you……” Why aren’t you staying home? Why did you come here?

I haven’t even asked when the meatball Kong at the other side cried with a hoarse voice: “Wu wa! Xiao Xiang! Wu wa!”

He cried so pitifully, making me take half a step back . Because this child had a crippled soul since small, his reactions were relatively slow . So he didn’t show many feelings . This sudden burst of him couln’t help but made me alarmed .

He saw me take a step back and looked more panic stricken . He didn’t care and stepped into the lake and ran staggering to me . He didn’t wait for me to help him and plummeted in front of me . With a body full of cold water, he rushed to me . The water wet my shoes . The meatball who wasn’t tall enough, stretched his hand and hugged my waist . His head glued to my belly . He began to cry out: “Don’t go, Chu Kong is wrong . Chu Kong won’t make you angry anymore and won’t go down the mountain to play anymore! I am wrong!”

I froze for a long time: “Did the demons on the mountain come and beat you out of revenge when I was away?”

His face rubbed twice against my belly, making me full of snot .

“You’re an immortal, wu……Da Hua said you went away and went to heaven to be a free and happy immortal…… . you’ll live very happily, and……and will never come back! You wouldn’t want me anymore……wu wu . ”

His voice was muffled and mixed with hoarseness . I heard vaguely what he said . I was startled, hesitated and said: “I just went to catch a demon . ”

Meatball Kong hugged me tighter: “Xiao Xiang, don’t run away with the demon . ”

I didn’t know if I should laugh or cry . When I could react again, my heart felt warm . I didn’t know what kind of nerves had been satisfied . It slowly pulled my mouth up .

Him being like this, must be because he was afraid that I’m leaving . Even if he didn’t want to cultivate and didn’t want to listen to me but in meatball Kong’s mind I’m still someone special with whom he couldn’t part with .

I seemed to hear the wild laugh from the depths of my heart . I squatted down . I looked at the immortal soul in the purple pearl slowly drift into his eyebrows . I touched his head: “Is Chu Kong afraid that Xiao Xiang won’t want you?”

To him, a soul entering his body didn’t have much feeling . He honestly nodded . With a face full of tears he answered me: “Afraid . ”

My mouth couldn’t help but rise again . I restrained the joy in my heart, dropped my eyes and said sadly: “But the two days that you went to play down the mountain, I thought you didn’t want me anymore . ”

Chu Kong immediately shook his head . He seemed in panic: “I didn’t! I I……Xiao Xiang……I’m wrong . Next time I won’t be like that anymore . ”

He raised his head and hugged my neck . His head rubbed against my neck .

“Xiao Xiang, don’t be angry . I really know I’m wrong . ”

I glanced at him, pinched his cheek and pulled him away . My heart burst with excitement . So when the intelligence and power were above of other, it would hold such a sense of superiority . At this moment I understood why in the lifetime of silly Xiang, Chu Kong liked to pinch my face . So this was the perfect feeling of the combination of possessiveness and superiority .

While I was being happy in my heart, I didn’t forget to tease Chu Kong . I said: “Let’s make a deal . ”

I held out my pinky and indicated for Chu Kong to hold out his pinky .

“In the future if you still need me, I’ll always be by your side . Always stay with you . ”

Chu Kong froze for a moment . The tears began to fall again . He wiped his tears . His hand tightly clutched my pinky: “Mm, I’ll always want Xiao Xiang . Forever want . ”

Before, I always put a face of shifu and never calculated Chu Kong like this . I always had a solemn face more than a laughing face, covering my original character with seriousness . At this point I knew that I should also combine education well with incentives and penalties . Like that I could achieve a faithful dog . I squeezed Chu Kong’s face and said laughingly: “Good child . ”

Chu Kong looked at me blankly for a moment . He raised his hand and touched my face: “Xiao Xiang laughing like this is the most like you . ”

I was startled . He also froze: “Yi……I don’t know why I said those words . ”

Because with one more mortal soul, Chu Kong’s soul will be completed .

I asked him: “Does Chu Kong still not want to practice cultivation?”

He looked at me somewhat afraid: “Xiao Xiang, I’m sorry . I really don’t like cultivation . ”

I nodded . I understand him, but still felt a little sad . Meatball Kong really didn’t want to become the Chu Kong in my heart .

A few days passed after that night . These few days I no longer forced Chu Kong to practice cultivation . He was also not like the past looking for opportunities to slip out and play with the demons on the mountain . He was only staying at my side, guarding me . He followed me everywhere I go . It seemed that I left for half a day a few days ago must have frightened him .

Today was a fine day . I was feeding the chickens in the backyard . Grains fell on the ground . Suddenly I felt a burst of wind with evil . I didn’t need to say about the grains which have been blown away, but even the chickens had been blown away . I looked up . It was the deer-horse demon I hit a few days ago . This demon didn’t have a change of heart and actually has been seeking me out for revenge . He actually found here .

The deer- horse demon stomped his hoof and hissed in the air . His voice was full of anger .

I looked left and right . Here was my home . Chu Kong froze behind me . He must not have seen such a big demon and has been scared to death . Here, I couldn’t fully concentrate on dealing with him . I could only distract him and lead him away .

I took the opportunity while he was hissing at the sky, picked up some chicken poop and throw it in his mouth .

“What’s there to hiss about? If you want to fight come with me!”

I put an enchantment around Chu Kong and protected him inside it .

“Hide well inside it”

I said that to him and didn’t care about how he  pounded and stomped inside it . I went away on a cloud and flew from the foot of Lu Hua Mountain .

In the past Chu Kong always made that move on me . Today finally our roles changed . I felt a sense of satisfaction and pride .

After swallowing the chicken poop, the deer-horse demon became more furious . He hooved pounded on the ground and followed behind me while catching up .
