A-Cha Returns
"she is?"
"Her name is Chihuang, she's my friend."
Yuanli herself hasn't figured out Chihuang's identity yet, so she can only say that they are friends for now.
Seeing that Chi Huang was not displeased, she continued to introduce: "Chi Huang, this is Cha Suxun, my fiancé."
The two nodded at each other, which meant they got to know each other and greeted each other.
Yuanli briefly told Cha Suxun the story of the ghost mother.
"A-Cha, you must have a way to take these souls into the netherworld and hand them over to the ghost messengers without anyone noticing after I release them, right?"
"Yes. It's been a long time since we last met. It turns out that our A'li can liberate so many special souls. She's amazing." Cha Suxun touched her head, his eyes full of praise and pride.
"Hehe, Chihuang taught me that. She's really amazing."
“They’re all amazing.”
"Then let's get started."
After that, Yuanli used the Tianfan Lantern to start praying for the souls of the dead. When the light of the lantern shone on the souls of the dead, they were able to regain consciousness and escape from the wall.
On the wall of the lantern in her hand, there were some vivid shadow puppet murals, which simply and quickly depicted the short life of the souls, and finally froze and disappeared, leaving a miniature of them trapped in this wooden house in the corner.
Among these dead souls, there were no children like those in Yuanli’s dream.
After cooperating with Cha Suxun to release the souls and send them into the underworld to be handed over to the ghost, Yuanli commanded Cha Suxun, the only physical body, to cast a spell to hide his whereabouts and dug up the garden thoroughly.
In total, sixteen earthenware jars for raising little ghosts were dug out.
Cha Suxun's expression changed after he saw the talisman pattern on the lid of the altar.
He summoned Abang Ayi and brought back the sixteen earthenware jars, along with several ghost boys who had grown from ghost fetuses and were left there by the ghost mother, to the underworld.
"A-Cha, cast another spell to investigate. Are there any other trapped souls here?"
"There are no souls in this small wooden house. But I'm not sure about other places. After all, the person behind this can hide it from Youming and me, and trap so many souls here. After the investigation, I'll have to trouble A Li to use the Tianfan Lantern to search the entire Lingdie City for me."
Yuanli telepathically said to him, "You're wrong. You and I are one and the same. We can't use polite words like 'trouble' to alienate each other. If you need me, just say it directly."
Cha Suxun used his spiritual power to transmit his voice and asked, "Can I tell you directly if I need anything?"
Without waiting for Yuanli to answer, Chihuang found a reason to avoid exposing his existence and returned to the lantern.
There were only two of them left in the wooden house.
"If you need anything, you can tell me."
"I need you to hug me. I miss you so much."
"I miss you too, A-Cha. I miss you so much. But I'm a spirit now. Can I hold you in my arms?"
Cha Suxun took the initiative to hold her in his arms, bent down slightly, buried his head in her neck and rubbed it twice, then froze to observe her reaction.
She didn't resist at all and buried her head again.
According to my previous understanding of him, Cha Suxun would usually be so clingy when he was extremely insecure or jealous.
"A-Cha, are you jealous because you saw my body stuck to Heng Jin? Or are you just having wild thoughts because you thought about how he and I were locked up together for eight days? Of course, if it were me, I'd be unhappy too. When we get home, you can see my memories."
"I am very jealous, very unhappy, and I have some wild thoughts, but your anxious explanation is enough to make my joy overshadow the unhappiness caused by jealousy."
He hugged her tighter, "Ari, I really like the feeling of being cared about by you."
"Alright, alright. I'll coax you back when we get back. Now we have to go see what the Ghost Mother is up to. The most important thing is to get my body back before she's targeted by the Heavenly Punishment. If it gets chopped to pieces, you'll end up marrying a ghost."
"As long as I'm here, I'll never let you be without a body and just a soul."
"Besides finding me a body, what else can you do? Ah Cha, Ah Cha, you are the Lord of the Underworld who controls the reincarnation of souls. You cannot commit such a taboo that goes against the laws of nature."
Cha Suxun looked into her eyes and said seriously, "How could I let you suffer by using someone else's body? This kind of method is not allowed to be discussed outside the house. If you really want to know, let's talk about it when we get home. Let's go and find your body."
He took Yuanli's hand and walked out of the house in a swagger.
Yuanli pulled him back and said worriedly, "Wait, if you go out like this, will the Psylocke tribe discover your presence?"
Cha Suxun transmitted his message through telepathy, "No, when I first arrived, I noticed traces of the Huangquan Clan's formations being used here. I was afraid something bad might happen, so I was especially careful to conceal my whereabouts. Unless I really wanted to, even if I sneaked into the old man's hall in the sky, it would be unobstructed and easy, and no one would notice. Are you relieved at this level?"
Yuanli transmitted a telepathic message, "Don't worry. Eh? Have you ever sneaked into the Heavenly Monarch's palace?"
Cha Suxun sent a telepathic message: "Do you still remember the conflict between me and the Heaven Realm?"
Yuanli transmitted the message through telepathy: "Remember, you said that the heavens stole your treasure."
Cha Suxun transmitted the message through his spirit: "Yes, you are my treasure. When I found out that the dead bird had abducted you, it managed to make you ascend and be crowned as a god. I immediately went to the heavens and asked them to return you. They listed a lot of benefits and said that it would be more glorious and respected for you to be a god than a small will-o'-the-wisp. They also said that you have gone through the tribulation, which concerns the common people. If you are forcibly recalled, your immortal bones will be removed, and your godhood will be stripped away, which will damage your body and mind, as well as the common people, and you will be criticized and ridiculed for no reason. After the fight, I regained some of my sanity. They said Most of the benefits are real. I can't selfishly possess you and keep you by my side. But is it good or bad for you? Are you willing to be a god? It's up to you to decide. You were raised in my temple and don't quite understand being a god, so I'll let it go and let you experience it before you decide. Goodbye, Huisheng Bay. I don't know why you suddenly don't want to cling to me anymore and have become so distant to me. So, I have always kept the same distance from you, just to be by your side. As long as you say you don't want to be a god anymore, then I will do everything I can to bring you home.
She heard about it shortly after she returned to heaven after her first life ended.
When she first descended to the mortal world to experience tribulations, a man in black robes fought against thirty-three gods in the Heavenly Emperor's Palace and confronted the Lord of Heaven, demanding that the Heavenly Realm return the stolen items.
Although this matter was deliberately concealed, it was inevitable that the news would leak out.
At that time, some immortal friends said that the Upper Heaven was becoming more and more useless. Xie Yuan and a man in black robes, two outsiders, could come and go freely in the Upper Heaven, and they could hide from countless heavenly soldiers and generals and the beasts of immortals and gods, and go straight to the Palace of the Heavenly Emperor. It was really a joke.
She had secretly complained about it, but she didn't expect that it would be her Ah Cha who came to pick her up...
"I didn't mean to keep my distance from you. It was because the memories of you that remained in my mind at that time were all unfamiliar and polite. To erase my love for you, I naturally had to erase those memories that contained love. So I looked at you with the same reverence as a mortal would look up to a god or a bodhisattva. You are my savior. I didn't dare to have any evil thoughts about you, let alone get close to you or be intimate with you. It wasn't until you started walking towards me that the distance between us was shortened."
"It's my fault. If I hadn't been so timid, so timid, and so obsessed with random thoughts, and had made my feelings clear, things wouldn't have... It's all my fault."
"I am the biggest coward. The first time I fell in love with a man, I completely rejected him and ran away before even trying to win him over."
The grievances that had been hidden and suppressed in my heart with no one to confide in could no longer be suppressed at this moment.
Yuanli threw herself into his arms, buried her face in his chest, tears of grievance streaming down her face, and cried silently.
She thought that as long as she didn't make any sound, her tears wouldn't be noticeable.
But she forgot that she was now a soul. When her tears slid down, they emitted an extremely faint blue light all over her body, which would leave traces when they fell to the ground or stained A'cha's clothes.
"You don't know. When I ascended to heaven under the influence of Heng Jin's immortal grace, they all thought I was lucky and had a stroke of bad luck. After all, I didn't ascend by true ability, but purely by luck. It was natural to be criticized. But no one knew whether I really wanted this piece of shit. As a god of misfortune hated by everyone in heaven and on earth, I had to be intimidated by Heng Jin's bad luck. Before the tribulation, I was baptized by unkind eyes wherever I went, but I had no choice. At that time, I felt that I had nowhere else to go except the Star Lord Mansion, and I had no family to confide in."
Cha Suxun held her face and when they looked at each other, she cried even harder. He lowered his head and gently kissed the crystal tears that slid down her face.
Yuanli leaned back to avoid him and reached out to wipe away the remaining tears from his lips.
Cha Suxun put his arm around her waist and closed the distance between them again.
Their lips were very close, and he didn't kiss her for a long time, just rubbing the tip of his nose against hers.
"Ari, can you please... stop resisting me and pushing me away?"
"I just feel like my tears are dirty. Please don't kiss me with your mouth. I'm not resisting you."
"Ari, I need to kiss you."
Hearing this, Yuanli was both shy and speechless.
"If you want to kiss me, then kiss me. Why are you asking me? You don't ask a girl about this kind of thing."
"Ari taught me that if I need you, I'll just tell you directly. I listen to you the most."
After saying that, he kissed Yuanli on the lips.
"If you want to kiss me, I can. I don't need to ask you. You taught me this, and I can't go back on my word."
He pressed his lips against Yuanli's again, not content with just a light kiss, but went deeper.
His kissing skills had obviously improved, and he kissed her until she was almost short of breath and fascinated. So when he let go and faced her, the lust in his eyes had not yet dissipated.
Catching her reaction, Cha Suxun struck while the iron was hot. He placed his right hand on her neck and rubbed her delicate skin with his thumb with a tickling force.
"Ari, I really like the way you look at me."
