Chapter 37 Follow Up (1)
Looking at Father on the bed, Han Chiyou held Wuyou and wailed.
“Elder sister, will father die?”
Wuyou placated her sister. Although Wuyou did not like Uncle Han, she also showed some respect to him since he was a man who was crazy for love. Han Qianyi could give up everything merely for her mother, which touched Wuyou a lot. Wuyou felt relieved at the fact that her mother married Han Qianyi now.
“He’er.”
Xu Yinchang and Lin Xiaosa entered the inner room. Little Blacky stared closely at Han Chiyou in Wuyou’s arms. Han Chiyou’s miserable look with tearful eyes considerably disturbed him.
“Senior Brother, what happened to the uncle of the Han family… Was he find just now?”
The little black-haired man stared at the man on the bed, calculating inwardly that, “If I save him, that girl will fall in love with me! At that time, I am the savior of the Han family.” At the thought, the little black-haired man felt a hundred times confident.
“Senior Brother, isn’t the Mentor’s Resurrection Jar still here? How about letting me have a try?”
“Why is Junior Brother so anxious? It is a pity that only using Mentor’s spirit pill can the Jar work.”
Lin Xiaosa winked at Xu Linghe, and Xu Linghe fully took a hint. It turned out that Junior Brother had a liking for the Han family’s daughter. But there were some weaknesses in Junior Brother’s Spirit Power. However, for the sake of Junior Brother’ love, Xu Linghe decided to help him secretly.
The Heaven and Earth Pouch was changing in Xu Linghe’s conjuring. When the Jar fell on the hands, the little black-haired could not wait to cast the Spirit Power that his Mentor had taught him. Then, the Jar floated above Han Qianyi’s head. The little black-haired condensed his Spirit Power, and the Jar gleamed with blue Spiritual Qi. But to his surprise, Han Qianyi showed no sign to wake up in the nourishment of the Spiritual Qi.
Xu Linghe knew that it required the Mentor’s Pill, but it was too late to go to the Kunlun because Uncle Han could not hold on until then. So Xu Linghe decided to use reincarnation mirror to call Uncle Han’s souls back. Whether Uncle Han could rouse himself depended on his fate. After all, the reincarnation mirror could call the dead spirit. So Xu Linghe was not sure whether he could wake Uncle Han up or not.
“Junior Brother, take it!”
Xu Linghe took the reincarnation mirror from the Heaven and Earth Pouch, and Little Blacky caught it steadily.
The Spirit Power was injected into the reincarnation mirror, and immediately, the five-colored Spirit Power reflected from the mirror. Rays of Spirit Power floated in the Spacetime and gathered little by litter.
Little Blacky was pale, since he had exhausted his strength to use his Creation-of-Heaven eyes, so he felt strenuous. Xu Linghe secretly collected his Spirit Power and infused it into the Junior Brother. Little Blacky clenched his teeth. And a streak of spirit light came out of the reincarnation mirror and injected into Han Qianyi’s body.
Xu Linghe breathed a sigh of relief and patted his Junior Brother’s arm. The little black-haired man looked at him with gratitude. “If it weren’t for Senior Brother’s help, I was afraid that I would have harmed Han Qianyi’s life.” Han Chiyou couldn’t believe her eyes and stepped to the bed. Her father came back to life finally!
“I didn’t think that it would be him to save Father’s life!” Han Chiyou hugged her father, crying with joy.
“Father, you can wake up finally. You scared me!”
Han Chiyou helped her father to sit up, and Little Blacky kneeled in front of the bed.
Han Chiyou jumped up in shock and pointed at Little Blacky with incoherent words. “You…you…” Her face turned red.
“Father, this person saved you now.”
Han Qianyi looked at the savior who knelt in front of the bed, about to stand up and thank you. Then, Little Blacky spoke first.
“If Uncle Han wants to repay the favor, please betroth Chiyou to me.”
His words were like a thunderbolt. Han Chiyou was about to come up to kick him up and was stopped by Han Qianyi. “Unexpectedly, this guy wants to be my Han’s son-in-law.”
A man just stood tight and observed what was happening in the room, that is, Chidi. He could almost lose control of his excitement when seeing the divine device of antiquity times with his own eyes. “It is so close to the divine device. But it seems to take several days to deal with them to get it.” Chidi pretended to be calm and hid his thought as looking at the reincarnation mirror in the Heaven and Earth Pouch.
“Brother Han, are you better now?”
Chidi had no good feelings for Han Qianyi, but the richest man in Jiangnan was an old friend of Xu Yinchang’s. Since Chidi was wearing Xu Yinchang’s face, he had to put up with Han Qianyi. The man on the bed was depressed about a woman, for which Chidi disdained a lot.
“Thanks for prime minister’s care. I am okay now.”
Chidi approached the divine device in an attempt to touch it with his Spirit. However for some unknown reason, his Spirit Power did not work. “Is the young man alert to me?”
Chidi dissipated the Spirit Power and walked out of the inner hall, followed by Xu Linghe. Watching her mother sitting on the edge of the bed with a pale face, Wuyou wanted to console her, but was lost in words.
“Mother, I go out now.”
Wuyou rolled up the pearl curtains and stepped to the courtyard. Han Chiyou followed her closely all the way. “Elder sister’s back figure is very lonely.” No matter what happened to Father and Mother, Han Chiyou did not want to lose Wuyou, her elder sister.
“Elder sister, wait for me.”
Han Chiyou held Wuyou’s hand. Wuyou felt a sudden warmth in her heart. “This little girl is very considerate. It is good to have such a well-behaved younger sister.”
“Elder sister, do you still remember the Jiangnan backyard? At that time, I liked the fairy sister very much. I did not expect that you are my sister. But why do you change your look now? It is good anyway. Otherwise, you take after mother so much. How can I tell you from each other?”
Wuyou was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery of the backyard. Thinking Xu Linghe followed his father so closely, Wuyou guessed there must be something important and decided to take a look.
For Xu Linghe’s father, Wuyou still felt resentful, since Xu Yinchang almost took Xu Linghe’s life merely with a palm last time.
With the thought, Wuyou sped up. The entrance hall was deadly silent. Han Chiyou poked her head out and peeped into the hall. Then, she was pulled out by Wuyou.
A figure under the flower tree was observing them—she was Ming Zhu who had transformed into Di Li. Ming Zhu had intended to come to peek at Young Master Xu, but to her surprise, she encountered her disgusted woman. Jealousy flashed into Ming Zhu’s mind. “It seems that it is time to let the annoying woman disappear.”
“Elder sister, when will Brother Xu marry you? You don’t forget me when you have a husband.”
Han Chiyou narrowed her eyes and wanted to see her sister’s flushed face, but only received a snap from Wuyou.
“Chiyou, stay here and I will come and have a look.”
Wuyou transformed into a wisp of smoke into the room. Han Chiyou stared at the room and wanted to come in, but was afraid of being discovered by her elder sister.
Wuyou moved carefully. A demon aura floated in the dim room. She looked around and found no trace of Xu Linghe.
Wuyou was about to leave the room when the beams of the room began creaking. Wuyou turned around and chopped at the black figure. With Sunshine percolating through the roof, Wuyou saw it was her man, Xu Linghe.
Wuyou relieved. Xu Linghe was taken aback at first, then his eyebrows extended a bit when finding it was Wuyou. However, Xu Linghe looked a bit pensive when recalling what he had seen just now. At that time, Xu Linghe followed his father out, but unexpectedly he was enchanted by ecstatic spell. To Xu Linghe’s astonishment, in the illusion, his little woman became a devil and destroyed the human’s world. “Is it what is going to happen? But how can it appear in the illusion?”
What Xu Linghe could not figure out was that his little woman in the illusion trampled on the three realms like a devil in the purgatory, but when he wanted to dig it out, he found surprisedly that he was still in the same place but could not see his father. “Is what I saw today auspicious or inauspicious? I’d better return to the Kunlun and consult the Mentor.”
“Linghe, is there any flowers on my face?”
Wuyou was confused about his complicated look. Xu Linghe comforted himself in his heart, “I am making foolish dreams. How can such a kind woman become a devil? I am so ridiculous!”
“My little woman, you should be good. If something happens one day, I will always stand on your side.”
“Do you want to abandon the Cannibal Devil?”
Wuyou teased the man in front, thinking that, “How can I become a Cannibal Devil? If it were true, I would rather ruin the true body than become the demon of the three realms.”
“If I become the sinner of the three realms one day, Linghe, please do not show any mercy for me and just let me die directly.”
“How come? Even if the three realms are destroyed, I can’t live without you.”
Xu Linghe clasped her hand out of the room. Chidi who had become invisible on the wall appeared. It seemed that common people all had seed for love, such as Han Qianyi and Xu Linghe.
“To obtain the divine devices to rule the three realms as a whole, it is necessary to drive a wedge between them. Although it is a conspiracy, it is okay if it works. How could some tiny sorcery shake Xu Linghe’s mind?
If one day his beloved woman betrays him and all he get are just illusions, what will he do?” Chidi wanted to see if it was unbreakable behind love.
“I want to see my elder sister happy. Sister in the red wedding suit must be the most flamboyant bride in the Qi Kingdom.”
Wuyou was bathed in the great sweetness and only hoped the wedding day would come soon.
When Wuyou was dressed in the marriage suit and looked at the mirror, she could see she was bubbling over with happiness. “I will be Xu Linghe’s wife today.” Wuyou took some girly steps and looked out of the window now and then. Han Chiyou giggled at the sight of such an impatient sister.
“I think, elder sister is waiting for the brother-in-law. Mother, I did not want to marry.”
Ablush, Wuyou flicked Han Chiyou’s small forehead. Little Lingchong looked at that with a face of pride, because its position declined disastrously after the master had a younger sister,
“Master, take it easy. In human’s world, there are too many trivial formalities in the wedding ceremony. It is totally unlike our Teal Hill. If a person has a liking for a girl, he can present flowers and then the ceremony is finished.”
“Hey, you are a bug. Don’t put on airs.”
Han Chiyou gave out some laughter with a proud look. Little Lingchong wanted to crawl into the master’s sleeve, but was lifted up by Han Chiyou and shaken. Little Lingchong stuck its tongue out with legs pointing up.
“You…”
Little Lingchong looked at its master pitifully, but now its master had focused herself on the male master. There was not a position for it now.
“After you are married, you cannot act arbitrarily. Although there are not so many cumbersome rules in the Teal Hill as in the human’s world, the daughter of the Teal Hill is also supposed to be into your husband. When I was married to your father, your father sent me a guardian Spiritual Stone. Now, I give it to you. You should be happy all the time, for your father and for me.”
Madam Hou Qing took a seven-colored necklace out of her chest and wore it around Wuyou’s neck.
“Mother, it would be great if father were here.”
“What’s wrong with this? On the great day, Mother and elder sister should be happy!”
Hou Qing held the elder daughter tightly. “My daughter is going to marry. I shall be happy. But Jiang Tian can never see how beautiful our daughter is in the marriage suit.” The happiness of a family’s union was the most common happiness in human’s world.
一
“Elder sister, brother-in-law is here.”
Through the thin window, Han Chiyou looked at her brother-in-law who was radiant with happiness. Hou Qing covered the bridal veil for Wuyou. That moment, Wuyou’s heart beat heavily.
The door curtain was rolled up by the wind, and Xu Linghe walked toward his little woman step by step. “From now on, this woman is my wife.” Xu Linghe held her little hand tightly.
