Chapter 9: If You Don't Love, Then Don't Mess Around

  On the other hand, Lily also started walking towards me. I saw her take a step and her facial skin fell off, slowly revealing a bloody face that was unrecognizable. She stuck out her tongue and licked me once...

  "Lily, we know each other, don't be like this." But Lily didn't care about me and continued walking towards me.

  "Zi Chuan! You still haven't made a move," Master said, while dealing with the ghost infant covered in maggots and worrying about me at the same time.

  "Lily, don't blame me..."

  "In the midst of it all, metal, wood, water, fire and earth, three births and five elements, wielding a golden sword, slaying evil spirits, all soldiers in battle formation stand at attention!"

  This is my first time using the Ghostly Blade Technique, and I see a watermelon knife slowly gathering in mid-air.

  "Go!"

  The fruit knife stabbed towards Lily...

  The fruit knife stabbed into Lily's body, and I felt the place where I was stabbed slowly disappearing, leaving only a head without skin.

  And that head was still floating in mid-air, its mouth wide open as if flying towards me...

  It's getting close to me! My heart was so panicked at that time, what should I do? What to do?!

  "In the midst of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, three births and five elements, separated from fire and born, separated from fire and burned, all soldiers in battle arrayed before!"

  Master helped me at this critical moment, and I still see that same prospect...

  Heavenly fire sea!

  A cluster of fireballs came down, continuously falling on Mengmeng, Lili and Guiying!

  Pfft! A burnt smell wafted into my nose! It smells terrible!

  Lily is gone again...

  The maggots on the ghost infant's body were all burned to death, and its originally black skin turned bright red, panting on the ground. Mengmeng was being scorched by the fire as if it was uncertain whether she existed or not!

  "You weren't burned to death by the fire of separation in the underworld, do you think you can escape in the world of the living?!" I saw Master scolding Mengmeng with a stern face.

  Meng Meng struggled up and threw the ghost baby out of the window. "Child, run quickly!"

  Nowhere to run, the outside was laid down by the master's soul-fixing array, and just as it was thrown out for an instant, a wall-like thing with golden light appeared outside the window, shaking the ghost baby back!

  "Spare my child's life!" Mengmeng begged, seeing that she couldn't escape, pleading with my master.

  "The evil infant cannot be allowed to stay in this world! It must be exterminated." The master also ignored her pleas, saying this.

  "Master, just stay... it's no big deal about the ghost baby," I helped Mengmeng say some comforting words, and as a result...

  "You know nothing, it's just that this ghost baby has only just been born, once it gets to the back end, it can't be stopped!"

  It wasn't until later when I encountered a ghost baby that I realized what Master said was all true...

  Meng Meng saw that his master was not using it and thought he should beg me for it.

  I recall Zhang Ting being tormented, back when she still wanted to be sworn sisters with me. I was quite resentful of her at the time, but I'm the kind of person who gets wronged by others and can't wrong them back - or maybe that's just a nice way of saying I'm too soft-hearted.

  "Zi Chuan! I'm begging you, please talk to your master about this. All I want is for my son to see his father's face once, I don't want my son to disappear from birth without even seeing his own biological father."

  "Master..." I admit I wavered... "Master, help them..."

  "Alright! Subekawa, since you know the cause and effect of this matter, it must be settled. Fine, let's do as you say."

  "I'll take you to find his father, but you have to promise me not to harm him, or else don't blame me!" I said seriously to Mengmeng. Normally, I wouldn't dare say this, but now Mengmeng was very weak, so I wasn't afraid either.

  "Hmm...... thank you. Kid, come over... it's time to meet your father." Mengmeng called out to the child, and then saw the bright red ghost infant slowly crawling over, crying twice along the way. This scene is really heart-wrenching...

  "Zi Chuan, I'll put them in the jade for now, and then you can take them tomorrow to fulfill your heart's desire. After it's done, bring them back to me, got it?" The master took out a jade from his waist, which was different from the one he gave to Zhang Ting earlier. The jade was made like an ancient copper coin, with the words "Tian Yuan Di Fang" engraved on it.

  The master bit his finger and smeared a circle on the jade, writing two characters that read " Imperial Decree".

  "With jade's spirit collect its soul and store its vital energy."

  "Soul Return!"

  Just then, Mengmeng and her mother turned into a mist and were absorbed into the four-square hole in the jade. The master's jade was faintly glowing. In a flash, I vaguely heard "Thank you..."

  "Let's go." The master handed me the jade and called out to me to leave. Our master walked out of a building on campus, saw the master say a word "receive" to the dustpan.

  The feather duster floating in the air automatically floated into his hand, on the way back, Master told me that this jade is a soul container, called Sifang Baoyu, which was passed down to him by his master.

  I walked to the school gate, and my master handed over some things to me before leaving on his own. I walked back to the dormitory, with the Four-sided Jade pendant tied around my waist, and I could always feel a cool air rushing into my body.

  It's already very late, I don't even know if Zhang Ting is thinking of me or not...

  Back to the dormitory and fell asleep immediately, until the next day during the daytime, just let

  Contest for Hegemony in the World Without Pop-up Windows

  Zhang Ting's phone rang and woke her up...

  "Zi Jiang! Come and have dinner with me, you haven't had dinner with me for two days!" Zhang Ting said this and I remembered that I had neglected her for the past two days. I quickly got up, put on my jade pendant and went out to find Zhang Ting to have dinner together. After dinner, I planned to go find Qian Duo and settle this matter...

  "Zihe, were you tired last night?" Zhang Ting asked with concern as soon as she saw me. I was touched and remembered that I had told her before that I went to the cinema.

  "My legs have gone numb from standing."

  "Don't go to those places for part-time jobs anymore."

  What a wonderful girl! I feel like sighing in admiration - what more could one ask for?

  "Mmm..."

  After dinner, I told Zhang Ting that I had some homework left undone and made an appointment with her to go shopping together at night.

  This little girl heard that she would accompany her for a stroll at night and ran back to the dormitory with great joy.

  "Meng Meng, where does Money live?" I silently chanted the incantation of the character 'Jie', which can also communicate with evil spirits.

  "In A5-210." Mengmeng's four-square jade pendant trembled in response to me.

  "Alright, I'll take you there."

  A5 is not far from my dormitory, just a staircase away. I came to the door of 210, took a deep breath, pushed the door, and it wasn't locked...

  As soon as I entered, I saw that there was only Qian Duo in the dormitory, typing away on his computer. When he saw me come in, he paused for a moment.

  "Who are you?" Qian Duo asked me this sentence, I didn't rush to speak, slowly moving a stool to sit in front of him.

  He lit a cigarette and smoked it by himself, staring at him without saying a word. He was intimidated by my stare, "What do you do?"

  "Meng Meng... you know her?" Qian Duo's face also changed when he heard me mention Meng Meng, and he started to hurry me out.

  "I don't know!"

  I couldn't help it, and I kicked him over. He may not have thought that I would directly fight with him, my height is not as tall as his, but I am stronger than him, I am not used to fighting, but seeing this kind of person who dares not to take responsibility makes me unbearable!

  He reacted and started wrestling with me, he pulled me over, I didn't care how many times I could hit him, I just swung my fists at his body! I don't know how it happened, but his head suddenly bumped against the window, and he stopped, clutching his head.

  I wiped the blood off my nose and threw a stool directly at him!

  "Haha! Congratulations to you. You've become a father!" I said fiercely, while he listened with a bewildered expression, holding his head in his hands.

  "Don't you want to see your son?"

  I pulled up the curtains so that sunlight could not come in.

  Take out the jade from your waist and place it on top of another jade, then bite your finger!

  "In my name. Transform his body."

  "Rest in peace!"

  This was what Master told me last night when we parted ways about how to let Meng Meng and her mother out.

  I saw Mengmeng and Guiying appear before me, but without the resentment, restored to their original appearance in life. Looking at them like this, Mengmeng is also quite delicate.

  "Ah! Mengmeng... how did you... didn't you jump off the building?!!!" Qian Duo said, shrinking back in fear.

  "Have you ever thought of me?" Mengmeng said softly to Qian Duo, while I stood by smoking and staring at the scene.

  "Look, this is our child, how lovely." As Mengmeng finished speaking, the ghost infant crawled towards Qian Du. Originally looking like a normal baby, but as it slowly crawled over, it transformed back into that terrifying appearance from last night.

  "No, don't come over!" Qian Duo seemed to have collapsed, grabbing whatever was around him and throwing it away.

  "Are you afraid? What are you afraid of, this is your own child!" Mengmeng's face also changed, no longer delicate, and turned back into that broken face!

  I just saw that suddenly, a soul floated out of Qian Duo's body! Oh no! It was the life soul, one of the three souls! A person's life soul is in charge of their thoughts and wisdom. Without it, Qian Duo would become an idiot! I then saw that after the soul floated out, Meng Meng waved her hand, and the soul wandered over to them in a daze.

  "Nightmare... nightmare!" I had wanted to stop her, because last night we agreed not to harm him, but good and evil will be rewarded in the end, so I just let her be.

  Meng Meng swallowed the rich man's soul! I felt a little guilty in my heart, but thinking about it, I decided to let it be, serving him right.

  "Thank you, Zikawa, I'll take his soul with me too, as a companion." Mèngmèng said weakly.

  "Well, I'll take you away then."

  I once again picked up the Four-sided Treasure Jade and took Dream and her mother into it.

  When I was about to leave, I took a look at Qian Duo and saw that his eyes were dull and he was slapping the floor listlessly.

  Alas, if you don't love me, why bother with me in the first place?

  I wore a jade pendant and came into the bamboo house, seeing Master had already prepared everything...

  Released Mengmeng and her mother... while the ghost baby had been crying from the start.

  I watched as Master changed into a new set of clothes, and indeed put on a white Taoist robe!

  A shrine was placed in front of the house! Not far away, a large water tank was added!
