"Don't worry, I have my own plan to deal with it." Chu Chu transformed into a double-headed bird and flew high. With a light flap of its colorful wings, countless light feathers fell like raindrops. Each light feather contained the power of purification, and those dark tentacles disappeared as soon as they came into contact with them, gradually weakening the faceless man's offensive.
"It seems you are more difficult than I imagined." The faceless man's voice finally became serious. He stood still, no longer hiding, revealing a face shrouded in black mist, with no facial features at all. "But the game has just begun."
"Game? You are wrong. This is our battle, about justice and truth!" Lu Chenguang shouted angrily, and his sword became more powerful. The golden sword light condensed into a beam of light and rushed straight towards the faceless man.
"The truth? Humph, what you call the truth is nothing more than what you're willing to believe." The faceless man sneered, and black energy surged around him, forming a solid barrier that blocked Lu Chenguang's fatal blow. At the same time, he twisted his body again, appearing behind Chu Chu in an instant, attempting a sneak attack.
"Don't even think about succeeding!" Chu Chu reacted extremely quickly. She stretched out her body and turned into a stream of light, easily avoiding the faceless man's attack. She took the opportunity to release a powerful purifying light with the tip of her beak, hitting the faceless man's heart directly.
"Ah!" The faceless man roared in pain, and the black mist began to churn violently, as if it had been greatly impacted. At this moment, Lu Chenguang seized the opportunity and pierced the black mist with a sword, pointing the tip of the sword directly at the faceless man's true body.
"Who... are you?" Lu Chenguang asked sternly. The tip of the sword trembled slightly, but it did not actually fall. He seemed to be waiting for an answer.
The faceless man gasped for breath, and the black mist gradually dissipated, revealing a familiar yet unfamiliar face - it was actually a sect elder who had disappeared many years ago. He was once a hero admired by everyone, but now he looked like this.
"I... I'm cursed, my soul devoured by greed and desire." The elder's voice was hoarse and painful. "I've been searching for a way to escape, but I've only fallen deeper and deeper, ultimately becoming this half-human, half-ghost."
"Curse? There must be a conspiracy behind this." Chu Chu frowned. She knew very well that things were far from as simple as they seemed.
"Yes, everything is manipulated by that person..." A trace of determination flashed in the elder's eyes. "Although I can't turn back, I hope you can stop him, reveal the truth, and restore peace to the six realms."
After saying this, the elder's body began to dissipate, turning into specks of starlight and eventually disappearing into the night sky, leaving only Lu Chenguang and Chuchu looking at each other, their eyes full of determination and resolve.
"We will definitely find the mastermind behind this and uncover all the secrets." Lu Chenguang gripped his sword tightly, his voice firm.
"Yes, for justice and truth, we will never back down." Chu Chu agreed.
Lu Chenguang, a celestial pride who had weathered many storms and finally achieved redemption, has now officially been restored to his rightful honor: the throne of Ronglin Celestial Monarch. His heroic spirit has not only revived his former prestige, but also guided the celestial realm towards new prosperity with compassion.
At the same time, Ye Xuan, the once unruly demon princess, also led her people to gradually get back on track after experiencing various twists and turns. The tension between the two tribes quietly eased, bringing an unprecedented light of harmony to the six realms.
Chuchu quietly returned to the Gu family and received news from the underworld.
The ghost messenger's voice was filled with awe and mystery as he reported a piece of ridiculous news to her: "Princess, your Highness, Rong Qi Tianjun, that venerable person with whom you have a deep connection has secretly descended to the mortal world and reincarnated into the Song family in the human world. He has become the newborn child of your second uncle in the human world. The baby your second aunt just gave birth to has been named Song Qi."
Hearing this, Chu Chu couldn't help but stroke her forehead, a complicated smile forming at the corner of her mouth: "There are so many things in this world. The word fate is really wonderful."
"He really knows how to choose a place. The Song family is one of the richest families in the human world. I think no matter how many reincarnations he has, he is destined to be rich and noble."
The ghost seemed to see through Chuchu's thoughts and whispered, "Actually, all of this was arranged by Lord Pluto."
This statement was like a bolt of lightning, causing Chuchu's eyes to flash with surprise. She sighed softly, feeling a little more understanding and empathy for her aloof father, the Pluto. "My Pluto, he's probably worried about Rong Qi returning to heaven, so he might harbor some resentment. However, now that the matter is settled, it's futile to dwell on it."
Chuchu's gaze passed through the window lattice, gazing at the boundless night sky, she silently prayed in her heart: "I hope that in this life, Song Qi can bathe in the warmest sunshine in the world and grow up to be an upright and kind person. I hope that he can forget the grudges of his past life and only have simple happiness and joy in this life."
Fifteen years later
The changing of the four seasons over the past fifteen years is like a delicate scroll slowly unfolding, and every stroke carries the weight of time.
As the wheel of time quietly moves towards another solemn milestone in life, Chuchu is just 18 years old in the human world, but she has to face a farewell that is both solemn and tinged with sadness.
As dawn shone and dusk fell, her beloved grandmother, Ms. Shu Wan, with the serenity and composure forged by nine decades of life, gently closed her eyes, which had witnessed countless worldly events, and stepped into the gentle embrace of the world beyond. It was a farewell gently embraced by time, and the highest tribute to the dignity of life.
Chuchu's heart is gripped by an indescribable emotion. Standing on the threshold of youth, she looks back on the warm moments she shared with her grandmother. In the final, tender chapters of her grandmother's life, the hands that wiped away her tears countless times, offering her courage and comfort, now seem to hold her entire world. Their fingertips convey not only warmth but also love and hope that transcends life and death.
