Is It Fate Or Destiny (Part 1)

  The blue smoke slowly drifted away in all directions, and the ashes of the burnt offering had almost fallen.

  I stared at the three burning sandalwoods, let out a long sigh and closed my eyes to leave. It seemed like he wasn't there; otherwise, he wouldn't have ignored me.

  As I returned to my room and pushed the door open, I really hoped that Ming Yan had woken up, but unfortunately it was just my fantasy, he was still lying there in a semi-transparent state.

  Sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand to probe around, still able to feel it, only then did he let out a sigh of relief.

  The door that was closed was pushed open by an external force, and Chang Yu walked in with a yawn. He looked very sleepy, his usual sharp brown eyes looking dull today, even more so than my panda eyes.

  Through getting along, I'm no longer as afraid of Chang Yu as before. Ming Yan is like this now, and I don't care about that bit of fear in my heart. Grabbing Chang Yu's hand, the cool feeling reminds me of his non-human identity.

  Disregarding all that, she pulled him and pointed at Ming Yan, asking: "After I woke up, he didn't say a few words before ending up like this. Quickly tell me how to save him? And what exactly happened, you said he was a ghost immortal, why is it like this?"

  Chang Yu was dazed by me and sat down on the edge of the bed to calm down before looking at Ming Yan, seemingly not worried that he would disappear. He waved his hand casually and said: "He is indeed a ghost fairy, but the premise is that he is also a ghost. Ghosts can't see sunlight, this fool only recovered because of your blood yuan Shen. These days, going in and out of the room with you, his spiritual power has almost been exhausted. After realizing he misunderstood you, he sensed danger and didn't care about anything else. Fortunately, that drop of your blood still had some protective ability, otherwise, even a ghostly shadow would not be seen now."

  I slumped on the bed, shaking my head in self-reproach and repeating his words: "You mean he ran to the bottom of the sun to save me, that's why it ended up like this!"

  "It's not entirely his fault, after all, he is a ghost immortal. Naturally, he's different from other ghosts. The state he's in now, I think it's because when his vital energy was severely depleted, he improperly entered the body of a living person and did something that went against the heavenly way. Didn't you return home safely? Don't you find it strange? I took his place to subdue the evil spirit last night, and he said he would send you back. Do you think he would use what method to send you back? He's a ghost immortal, and this punishment for breaking the law is already considered light." Another yawn, and with a sideways glance at Ming Yan, he cursed, "Idiot."

  No wonder, no wonder strangers would know where I live and send me back so accurately. It turns out that Ming Yan controlled the body of a living person to do something for me that was worthy of heaven!

  I was shocked, wiping away the tears on my face, staring at Chang Yu and grabbing his sleeve to ask: "Tell me, how can I wake him up?"

  "Do you want to save him?" Chang Yu looked at me with that intriguing gaze of hers, as if probing something.

  I stared at him in shock, my hand slightly loosening its grip on his icy wrist. What did he mean by this? Ming Yan had sacrificed himself to save me; shouldn't I repay his kindness?

  I looked up at him and said seriously, "Yes, he saved me and protected my innocence. Even if it's just to repay him, I need to know how to save him. When people get hurt, they go to the hospital. As for ghosts, this is the first time I've heard of such a thing. Apart from being able to communicate with spirits, I don't know anything else. You must know how to save him, so stop wasting words. I don't want to owe anyone a favor."

  "It's not hard to save him, just drip your blood into his mouth or pass it through the sun, that's all. The ghost will slowly recover its energy after coming into contact with a living person's vital energy. However, if you really want to help him, you'll also need to find someone to bury his bones properly. Last time was too simple and wouldn't have lasted long. He had already exhausted his spiritual energy, but your blood restored his scattered spiritual energy. This time, he really risked everything to save you; that fierce ghost would have hurt him even more if I hadn't been there." Chang Yu sat cross-legged on the floor, rubbed her eyes, and stretched lazily.

  "I took his place and sent that wild ghost to hell yesterday, originally planning to sleep well and come out again. But smelling the incense you lit, I still couldn't resist the temptation to come out and take a look. Now your problem is solved, the rest is up to you to handle, I'm going back to sleep." As he got up, his lower body had transformed into a python's body, twisting away with a snake-like waist from my room.

  I opened my eyes wide, and it took me a long time to come back to my senses. I swallowed some saliva, and Chang Yu was actually so brazenly revealing his true form in front of me, although only the snake tail part made me adapt, but I still couldn't catch up for a while.

  He turned to face the semi-transparent flames, took out a small fruit knife from the drawer, and hesitated before cutting his finger. Tears could pass through his body, blood, could he really digest it?

  I've thought about giving him a sunny day, but to give my first kiss in such a way, I'm not quite willing. Many things I clearly know what I want in my heart, but reason still reminds me, the impossibility between me and Ming Yan, after all, he's no longer human, humans and ghosts are on different paths.

  The blood dripped into Ming Yan's mouth, with some remaining at the corner of his lips. It was truly miraculous that it hadn't passed through his body and been absorbed by him instead. I found it unbelievable and stared at him, observing the changes in him.

  All I saw was his transparent body absorbing my blood, slowly recovering from its transparent state, and the pale color on his face improved a lot. His long eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes slowly opened with a gentle lift of his eyelids.

  Woke up, finally woke up!
