After failing her ascension, metaphysics master Bai Mian is banished to the mortal world, inhabiting the body of a young orphan girl who died prematurely. Taken in by an elderly Chinese medicine do...
Chapter 190 Jinjiang Debut
Hearing this, Bai Mian took off his blindfold and saw the person in front of him clearly. He had neat short white hair, snow-white skin, and red pupils in his eyes. He was looking at Bai Mian intently.
"noob."
Although he turned into a human form, Bai Mian still recognized him at once by the smell on his body.
"No wonder I couldn't find you. You are here."
Xiaobai smiled and said, "Master, do you like me like this?"
Bai Mian carefully examined him and saw that his personality had changed drastically, completely different from before: "You are controlled by Morakshasa?"
He said disdainfully, "What do you mean by controlled? This is the real me. Have you forgotten? I am a demon! I was originally a great demon in the world, but was subdued by the Moon Goddess and turned back to my original form. For so many years, I have been suppressed by you. Now, I can finally release myself."
Bai Mian was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and directly grabbed his ear and said, "Since you have been bewitched by Morakshasa, I will not bother with you this time. Just tell me what your desire is and I will help you break the illusion."
Xiao Bai was held by Bai Mian's ears. He looked at her with infatuation and disbelief: "It's been so long, don't you understand? My desire, the only thing I want in my heart is you, my master, Bai Mian."
Bai Mian remained silent. Xiao Bai's voice became more hoarse, with a hint of begging in his humbleness: "For hundreds of years, I have always been by your side, but you only treat me as a pet. Have you ever taken me seriously?"
As he spoke, Xiaobai stretched out his hand, and a spirit bead flew up from his palm. Scenes from the past were projected into the spirit bead, which was his secret love that he could not express.
In fact, during the years in Yuehan Palace, Xiaobai slept under the osmanthus tree every day and absorbed a lot of spiritual energy. He could have cultivated himself into a human form a long time ago, but the Moon God had always been strict with him, so he did not dare to transform into a human form. Only when the Moon God came down to earth would he dare to become a human.
In order to prevent Bai Mian from being disturbed, he would only transform into a human form when Bai Mian was asleep and silently guard her. The osmanthus tree in Yuehan Palace witnessed everything.
Under the osmanthus tree, Bai Mian was sleeping soundly. Xiaobai was lying beside her pillow, staring at her long eyelashes and drawing her appearance with a brush.
On the osmanthus tree, Bai Mian was sleeping with her legs crossed on a branch. Xiaobai considerately spread a thick quilt under the tree, fearing that she might fall and get hurt accidentally.
Next to the osmanthus tree, Bai Mian dozed off on the table. Xiao Bai secretly sat in front of her desk and completed today's homework for her stroke by stroke to prevent her from being blamed by the Moon Goddess when she came back.
…
Countless scenes flashed before Bai Mian's eyes, and she couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart. It turned out that he had been in love with her for so many years.
The memories ended, and the spirit pearl in Xiaobai's palm was crushed. He said in a distorted voice: "For so many years, I didn't dare let you see my thoughts. I was afraid that you would hate me and drive me out of the Nine Heavens. We have different identities. You are an immortal, and I am just an ugly demon."
"So I kept holding it in, but the more I held it in, the more the thoughts in my heart grew. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I couldn't hold it in anymore—"
As he spoke, Xiaobai changed his offensive. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he broke free from Bai Mian's hands. He stood in front of Bai Mian, lowered his head to her, smiled wickedly, and his red pupils became darker, filled with boundless desire.
He grabbed Bai Mian's neck with his hands: "So, I am possessed by this demon. As long as I have him, I can have boundless power and I can have everything I want, that is - you."
Xiaobai slowly lowered his head, preparing to forcefully kiss Baimian, but Baimian waved his hand and slapped him: "You're dreaming."
After a loud slap, half of Xiao Bai's face turned red. He touched his red face and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "I like it. One more."
Bai Mian did not waste any time and directly swung his sword to fight with him. Now Xiaobai was possessed by Morakshasa and his mind became distorted. Only by knocking Morakshasa out of his body could Xiaobai return to normal.
After all, Xiaobai was a great demon in the past, with a strong talent for cultivation. Coupled with the spiritual power of Marakshasa, he had the upper hand at the beginning, but after a few moves he began to be unable to resist. Finally, Bai Mian slashed at him with a sword, and the tip of the sword just hit his Adam's apple, just short of piercing his throat.
Bai Mian poked his chin with the sword, and Xiao Bai's neck was slightly sweaty. His eyes were red, and he pretended to be pitiful and begged for mercy: "Master, are you really going to kill me?"
Bai Mian could see that it was the Marakshasa in Xiaobai's body begging for mercy. Marakshasa was possessed by Xiaobai, and if Xiaobai died, Marakshasa would die with him.
Bai Mian was not one to be soft-hearted. She retracted her sword, stretched out her hand to grab Xiao Bai's neck, tied his hands and feet with the immortal rope, then dragged him out of the house and stuffed him into the incinerator in the next door room.
Bai Mian turned on the incinerator and adjusted it to the maximum firepower. Before starting the fire, Bai Mian knocked on the door and said, "Either you come out by yourself, or you die with him."
The flames burned and instantly filled the entire furnace. With Bai Mian's blessing, the furnace was burning with spiritual fire. Xiaobai's whole body was burned, and he wailed in pain in the incinerator. Marakshasa also felt the same pain. He controlled Xiaobai's body to make sounds of begging for mercy and cursing. No matter what he said, Bai Mian refused to open the door. After persisting for a while, he finally jumped out of Xiaobai's body out of fear of being burned to death.
Bai Mian opened his third eye and saw a transparent ghost figure jumping out of the incinerator. He quickly caught him and turned off the switch of the incinerator. Xiaobai was burned back to his original form, turning into a little rabbit. His fur was burnt all over his body and he lay motionless in the furnace.
"You finally showed up."
Bai Mian looked at the transparent ghost in his hand, grinned, took out the golden talisman and prepared to send him off.
Suddenly, the environment she was in changed. She returned to Yuehan Palace. Everything in Yuehan Palace was the same as before. There was a woman sitting on the osmanthus tree in front of her. She was very familiar with the back of that woman.
"Sister——" Bai Mian shouted excitedly.
The elder sister slowly took off the white veil on her face and smiled back at Bai Mian:
"Little darling, I'm back. I promised you that I would come back safely."
The scene in front of her was so beautiful that Bai Mian couldn't tell which was real and which was fake. She walked forward aggrievedly: "Sister, I had a nightmare. In the dream, I asked you to take me to fight, but you didn't take me. You went alone, and then... they said you were dead, but the fairy bone was not found... I think, maybe you didn't die at all..."
The Moon Goddess flew down from the tree and gently touched her head: "Silly child, of course I'm not dead, you just had a nightmare, stop imagining, go drink a bowl of osmanthus soup, and then you should practice calligraphy. I'll supervise you this time, so don't be lazy."
"Yes," Bai Mian nodded vigorously, as if she had turned back into her childhood self, "I must practice calligraphy well, sister. You know, my handwriting is very good now. I can use spells by myself. In that dream, I helped many people. My magic became very powerful. Also, I met my parents..."
Bai Mian kept talking like this, as if she could not finish in a whole day and night. Her sister did not interrupt her but just listened patiently.
"Sister, I don't blame my father anymore. I understand his choice, but -" Bai Mian changed the subject, "I will make the exact opposite choice from him."
"Oh?" My sister was a little surprised.
"If it were me, I would choose all living beings—"
Bai Mian said as he broke off a branch of the osmanthus tree and pierced his sister’s heart with it.
She was willing to sink into this dream, even though she knew clearly that it was just an illusion and that Marakshasa was just taking advantage of her deep desire for her sister.
To see his sister again is Bai Mian’s greatest wish, and also Moraksha’s final killing move.
But no, she had something more important on her shoulders.
The sister disappeared, the illusion disappeared, Bai Mian returned to the incinerator, her hand pierced Moraksha's chest, and the most cunning demon in the demon world finally died in her hands.
The ghost of Marakshasa disappeared, but strangely, his sister's immortal bones did not fall out of his body after his death.
The sacral bone is not with him.
Bai Mian couldn't help but wonder, his sister died in the battle between immortals and demons, and her immortal bones disappeared at that time. If her immortal bones were not hidden by the demon, could they have been taken away by an immortal?
Bai Mian was thinking when Xiao Bai in the incinerator started to move. He jumped up and kept shouting, "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, where is this? Where is my master?"
Seeing Bai Mian outside, he jumped out excitedly, hopping and skipping to find Bai Mian. All his fur was burnt, and the little white rabbit turned into a little black rabbit.
"Xiaobai, I can't find my sister's fairy bone." Bai Mian was a little frustrated.
Xiaobai thought about it, and suddenly shook his ears, and a small bubble floated out of his ears. This is a memory bubble from the fairyland, which can transmit a memory.
"Here, this. One day after the Moon Goddess died, it suddenly flew into Yuehan Palace. You were not there at the time, so I saved it for you. I wanted to give it to you, but you were about to ascend to heaven and were about to jump, so I jumped with you."
Bai Mian took the memory bubble and gently popped it. A memory immediately entered Bai Mian's mind.
That was the day when the gods broke the Ten Demon Formation. The power of the Ten Demon Formation was enormous. Once the formation was formed, a catastrophe would surely occur in the world.
This time, the disaster brought by the Ten Demon Formation is a flood. A flood is about to fall from the sky and submerge dozens of cities on earth. This concerns the lives of tens of millions of people.
While the gods were busy fighting the demons, the Moon Goddess was the first to notice the unusual movements in the human world. Dark clouds were gathering on earth, and a disaster was about to happen. She had no time to hesitate and chose to block the disaster with her own body.
Before the flood came, she pulled out her immortal bone and let it fall on the earth, where it became a mountain, firmly blocking the flood and preventing people from dying in the disaster.
But the immortal will die soon after losing her immortal bone. In the last moments of her life, she chose to cast an amnesia spell to make everyone forget her death, including the gods who fought with her.
So no one remembered how the Moon Goddess's immortal bones disappeared, and the cause of Moon Goddess's death became a mystery.
Bai Mian understood her sister's reasons for doing this, so she used the amnesia technique, the key to which was to make all mortals forget the cause of the mountain, so as to avoid causing chaos in the world. Otherwise, if a mountain appeared out of thin air before their eyes, the world would definitely not be able to accept it.
Bai Mian saw the mountain in his memory. There was no tree on the mountain, and it was full of strange white rocks. From a distance it looked like white jade, so people called it White Jade Mountain.
This is her sister’s immortal bone. Bai Mian understood that she would never be able to get her sister’s immortal bone back.
Before her body dissipated, the Moon Goddess created this memory bubble and let the bubble fly to the direction of Yuehan Palace so that Bai Mian would know the cause of her death. She knew Bai Mian's character too well and knew that Bai Mian would definitely get to the bottom of it. Unfortunately, she was still a step too late. When the bubble flew there, Bai Mian was no longer in Yuehan Palace.
However, even if I cannot get my sister's immortal bones back, I have finally figured out the cause of her death, and I can go back to heaven to clear her name.
The system's announcement sounded in Bai Mian's ears for the last time:
"Congratulations host, you have completed the advanced main mission. This mission rewards 200 good karma points. Your current good karma point is: 1000."
"Host, your good karma value is full, please prepare for ascension--"
A golden light enveloped Bai Mian, and she could ascend at any time.
Xiao Bai then belatedly remembered what he had just done. His face instantly turned red and he quickly apologized to Bai Mian: "I'm sorry, Master, I didn't mean to do that. After I jumped down with you, I lost all my magic power and turned into an ordinary rabbit. I couldn't find you and was afraid of being eaten, so I wandered around the world in a daze for a long time."
"Then the devil came to me and said that if I let him possess me, I would have magic and would be able to find you. I was really desperate, so I agreed."
"I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't mean to hit you. I, I..."
Xiao Bai was worried that Bai Mian would abandon him. Seeing that Bai Mian was about to ascend, he asked timidly, "Master, do you still want me?"
"It won't happen again."
Bai Mian stretched out her hand, and Xiaobai quickly and happily jumped into her palm.
Although Xiaobai spoke rudely just now, I will let him go this time considering that he is possessed. Besides, this kid is quite handsome after turning into a human. Yuehan Palace is cold and lonely, so it would be nice to take him back and have him as a male concubine.
Just when Bai Mian was about to ascend, her cell phone rang. Someone called her. Bai Mian didn't want to answer the call, but this time there was a special red mark on the caller ID, which aroused Bai Mian's curiosity.
She answered the phone: "Hello?"
A mysterious voice said, "Is this Miss Bai Mian? We are the National Bureau of Paranormal Investigation, specializing in handling supernatural cases. We have been keeping an eye on you. In fact, your ability to regain an identity in the human world has also been approved by us."
"Thank you very much."
Bai Mian always felt that there was a force watching her when she was live streaming before, but this force was different from the police, and now it has finally shown up.
The mysterious voice continued, "We have been secretly observing you. In fact, people with supernatural abilities are not uncommon in this world. We keep an open mind. After observing you for a period of time, we believe that you are qualified and can become our partner."
"If you are willing, you can become a staff member of our bureau. There are many supernatural cases waiting for you to solve. Of course, you will get the reward you want."
Bai Mian understood that the National Bureau of Paranormal Investigation had only been observing secretly before and was still hesitant about whether to use her. Now, after the report from Xiao Chen from the police station, they knew that Bai Mian was about to leave the world, so they rushed to keep her.
Bai Mian smiled and said, "I'm sorry, but I am indeed leaving the world and cannot provide you with any help. Thank you for your kindness. If you are willing, I will recommend someone with equal abilities to assist in the investigation in the future."
The person Bai Mian was talking about was her apprentice. Although she had not accepted any apprentice yet, she had already made up her mind that when she had an apprentice in the future, she would also let her come to the human world to gain some experience.
After considering it, the other party agreed to Bai Mian's proposal. The two parties reached an agreement and Bai Mian hung up the phone.
The golden light enveloped her, becoming warmer and brighter. Soon she could see nothing. Her soul gradually left her body, and she could only hear the rustling sound of the wind in her ears.
After the golden light faded, Bai Mian appeared in the heaven. She stood on the white clouds and wore the crown of the Moon Goddess. All the gods in heaven congratulated her.
Today, she officially became the new Moon Goddess of Heaven.
The first thing Bai Mian did when she returned to heaven was to clear her sister's name. She found Queen Mother and explained the cause of her sister's death. The Queen Mother informed the entire heaven of the truth, and all the gods knew that Cang Yue died to save all living beings.
After the succession ceremony, Bai Mian returned to Yuehan Palace. She looked at everything in the human world through the human mirror:
Master and his wife were having a great time in the south, Yinyin was watching the decoration carefully, and the store of Lame Brother and Hongdou had already opened. It was packed with people on the first day of opening. Sister Xiao Yang had recently received a salary increase and received several silk banners...
The sisters Lu Xue and Xia Mang are helping Bai Mian do an important thing - reburying the body left behind by Bai Mian.
Bai Mian originally borrowed Zhou Xinyu's body when he came to the mortal world. Now that the affairs on earth are settled, it is time for Zhou Xinyu to be buried again.
According to Bai Mian's instructions, the two sisters helped Zhou Xinyu hold a more grand funeral. Bai Mian calculated that Zhou Xinyu would have a happy life in the afterlife to make up for her misfortune in this life.
After becoming the Moon God, Bai Mian also learned more about the rules of the Moon God. The Moon God is the deity in charge of the moon. Every Mid-Autumn Festival is when the moon is the fullest, and it is also a festival for the Moon God. On this day, the Moon God can come down to earth to fulfill people's wishes.
However, one day in heaven is one year on earth, which means that Bai Mian can go back to the earth to see her old friends every day.
After everything was settled, another small bubble floated down from the osmanthus tree. This time, Bai Mian thought for a long time before popping it. His sister's voice rang in his ears:
"Little darling, you should have grown up by now, right? As for me, I am definitely no longer by your side. Don't cry. No matter how I disappear in the end, it is my own choice. I want to tell you that it is boring to live with one identity for a long time. I have been the Moon Goddess for so long, it is time to change my identity. We didn't say goodbye. I am just waiting for you in another reincarnation. As long as the six reincarnations never stop, we will meet again one day."
Bai Mian looked towards the osmanthus tree. The osmanthus flowers on the tree were glowing in the night. This was the message bubble that her sister had hidden on the tree a long time ago. When a new Moon Goddess succeeded to the throne of Yuehan Palace, this bubble would automatically appear. Her sister knew that Bai Mian would not be able to bear her departure, so she recorded this delayed message in advance.
This time Bai Mian didn't cry. She took a breath and smiled. She knew that, just like her sister said, they would meet again.
There are only two people left in Yuehan Palace now, but Bai Mian doesn't feel lonely. She forces Xiaobai to cook various dishes for her every day. After a trip to the human world, Bai Mian's taste has become picky, and Xiaobai has to learn cooking for her.
Cooking is not enough, Bai Mian has also learned a lot of human tricks. For example, today, she asked Xiaobai to cook for her while wearing a suit, and Xiaobai had to do as she was told.
Bai Mian took a sip of the shrimp and loofah soup, and took a chopstick of the fried eel shreds. He nodded with satisfaction and rewarded the little white boy by grabbing the rabbit tail sticking out from behind his pants:
"Not bad, you have improved compared to last time, but you are still far from my master's wife's skills. You should keep working hard."
Xiaobai's face quickly turned red, and she secretly put her hands behind her back and hid the cooking app on her phone.
A gust of wind blew, and many osmanthus flowers fell from the trees. For thousands of years, life in Yuehan Palace remained the same. The moonlight fell and spread all over the world.
