Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild - Chapter 516
Chapter 516: She’s Dead
“Ah Dian, help me inform Master and get him to tell Grandmaster that the Emperor Ghost is in Lin Jiang Mansion in Xuan Yue Country. Ask them to come over quickly.”
After instructing Shangguan Dian, Lu Zhou hurriedly tore the void and left.
“Hey—”
It was too late for Shangguan Dian to stop him and ask in detail. He could only leave Green Peak in a hurry to find Sect Master Kong.
“Hey, why is the Demon King in a hurry? Where are you going?”
Shangguan Dian had just entered Sect Master Kong’s courtyard and happened to bump into Wen Yin and Chunyu Dong, who came out.
“Ah Zhou said that the Emperor Ghost is in Lin Jiang Mansion. He has already gone over and asked me to inform Sect Master Kong.”
“What?”
Chunyu Dong and Wen Yin exclaimed in shock.
“Lin Jiang Mansion?”
Chunyu Dong pursed his lips and said to Wen Yin, “Junior Sister, wait for Master. I’ll find Junior Brother.”
“Remember to be careful!”
Chunyu Dong nodded and left.
Lu Zhou was not an impulsive person. Even if he heard about the Emperor Ghost, he could not have gone ahead of time.
Something must have happened.
“Demon King, please come in!”
As soon as Chunyu Dong left, Wen Yin brought Shangguan Dian in to find Sect Master Kong.
“You’re saying that Ah Zhou asked you to tell me that the Emperor Ghost is in Lin Jiang Mansion?” Sect Master Kong frowned.
“Yes!” Shangguan Dian said in a low voice, “He left after speaking. He seemed to be in a hurry. I’m afraid something will happen to my niece.”
In Sect Master Kong’s room, Elder Sen and the State Minister were also there.
“Miss Lu’s fate has changed.”
The State Minister’s fingers moved slightly and he spoke in a deep voice.
“What do you mean?” Wen Yin asked.
“His Highness Yan’s love tribulation was completed in advance, so her fate changed.”
The State Minister stood up and said in a low voice, “Let’s go.”
Sect Master Kong said, “Go ahead. I’ll inform Master Yin.”
They nodded at the same time and headed to Lin Jiang Mansion.
—————
“No—”
Under the light of the Night-Luminiscent Pearl, blood was already flowing out of the corner of Lu Sheng’s mouth.
She tried her best to pry the Emperor Ghost’s hand away, but could not.
Chu Sihan rushed forward many times, but could not get close to them.
“The son of the King of Hades, right?” The Emperor Ghost looked at Chu Sihan and said disdainfully, “In my eyes, you’re no different from an ant.”
The age difference between the two of them was too big. Even though Chu Sihan had talent, he could not compare to the Emperor Ghost who had lived for tens of thousands of years.
Moreover, it had an indestructible body. Other than the seal, it was impossible to kill it.
Lu Sheng forced herself to turn her head and look at Chu Sihan. She said silently, “Don’t come over!”
“Didn’t you want my body? I’ll give it to you. I’ll give you my soul as well. Let her go!”
Chu Sihan wiped the blood off the corner of his lips and suggested with a trembling voice.
“Oh?”
The Emperor Ghost raised an eyebrow. “How touching. However, the two of you will be my food sooner or later. Does it matter who dies first?”
Chu Sihan took a deep breath and looked at it. “In that case, let me die first!”
The Emperor Ghost pondered for a moment and nodded. “Alright. Since you’re in such a hurry to court death, I’m willing to fulfill your wish.”
It threw Lu Sheng to the ground.
“Sheng Sheng!”
Chu Sihan ran over and hugged her.
“Cough, cough—”
Lu Sheng coughed lightly and grabbed his hand tightly. She shook her head and said, “Ah Han, don’t!”
Chu Sihan planted a deep kiss between her brows and said softly, “Hang in there. Uncle-Master Lu, Father, and Mother will be here soon.”
He had promised Lu Sheng to protect her.
But now… he was probably going to break his promise.
In a trance, Lu Sheng felt a liquid drip onto her face. It was cold, like… tears?
Chu Sihan was crying!
“Enough of your sweet talk. It’s time to go on your way.”
Before the Emperor Ghost could finish speaking, a long black hand suddenly reached over. Lu Sheng used some unknown strength to push Chu Sihan away.
The black hand pierced through her heart.
“No—”
A shrill scream pierced the clouds.
The surrounding boundary collapsed immediately. Lu Zhou, Chu Yun, and the rest nearby walked in this direction.
“Sheng Sheng—”
Without the boundary’s restraint, Chu Sihan’s eyes instantly turned red, and his clothes gradually turned red.
The Emperor Ghost was shocked. It did not expect Chu Sihan’s shout to break the boundary it set up.
“Sheng Sheng, wake up. Wake up!”
Chu Sihan hugged the blood-stained corpse and shook it carefully.
However, she lay in his arms like a broken puppet.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the Emperor Ghost extended his palm and sucked Lu Sheng’s soul over.
Lu Zhou happened to see this scene.
He quickly took out a talisman and sucked Lu Sheng’s soul in.
Seeing its prey got stolen, the Emperor Ghost was furious.
It turned to Lu Zhou and was about to attack him when a roar came from the sky.
A lightning bolt as thick as his wrist struck him, and his outstretched hand was instantly blown to ashes.
It was shocked and looked up into the sky. It realized that Sect Master Kong and Master Yin were flying in the sky with the disciples of the Five Peaks.
At the same time, the surroundings were quickly surrounded by the Peak Masters. A formation that had already formed descended from the sky and enveloped its body.
“No! No—”
The Emperor Ghost slammed the boundary with bloodshot eyes. It even used various techniques, but was still unable to break through the boundary.
“Emperor Ghost, you’ve committed a lot of evil and killed many people. You have to die.”
Master Yin landed in front of it and said expressionlessly, “This array formation is a new array formation developed by the Five Peaks over the past two years. It will grind away your evil aura and demonic nature and slowly make you disappear.”
“Master Yin, I won’t let you off!”
The Emperor Ghost lay on the array formation and glared fiercely at Master Yin.
Unexpectedly, Master Yin snorted coldly and said disdainfully, “You’re just an arrow at the end of its flight now. You can’t threaten me.”
“Lord…?”
When Chu Yun, who ran over, saw Chu Sihan in front of him, he suddenly did not dare to acknowledge him.
“What happened to Young Madam?”
Constable Ji looked at Lu Sheng, who was covered in blood and silently being hugged by Chu Sihan.
Chu Sihan did not speak and only hugged the person in his arms tightly with an ashen face.
“Sigh—”
The King of Hades, who rushed over, could not help but sigh softly.
“Lord, is Young Madam… alright?”
Chu Yun asked softly with reddened eyes.
Chu Sihan still did not speak. Everyone looked at him silently, not knowing what to say.
In comparison, Lu Zhou was much calmer.
He glanced at the corpse in Chu Sihan’s arms and sighed softly.
If not for Shenger, this should have been a corpse.
Now, she had returned it. As for Shenger, she had to return to her body. It was also time for her to return to her world.
“Han Er… Let’s bring Lu Sheng back first.”
After a long while, the King of Hades went forward to persuade him.
Chu Sihan shook his head and mumbled, “She’s not dead.”
“She’s already dead.”
Although it was cruel, the King of Hades had to remind him.
Wasn’t this the scene from Dongfang Yuechu’s dream?
So, it was not a dream, but an omen?
“Spit—”
Chu Sihan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His vision darkened and he fainted.
“Han Er!”
“Lord!”
Before he fainted, everyone ran towards him.
When he woke up again, he was already in the Chu Mansion in Lin Jiang Mansion.
“Lord, you’re awake!”
Chu Yun walked in wearing a black mourning robe.
“Where’s Sheng Sheng?”
Chu Sihan suddenly climbed up from the bed and asked nervously.
“Young Madam…”
Chu Yun lowered his eyes and shook his head.
Chu Sihan suddenly paused in his actions of getting off the bed. After a long while, he asked in a low voice, “She… is dead?”
“You’ve been unconscious for six days. In order to wait for you to wake up, Young Madam’s corpse has been frozen. Huang Yang Town has already informed Old Master, Madam, and the Lu family. They should be here tonight.”
“Bring me to her.”
Chu Yun thought that he would be very agitated. He did not expect him to be very calm.
However, the more Chu Sihan acted like this, the more worried he became.
“Brother Chu!”
In the hall, Shi Yi, Yun Ting, and the rest were there. Even Qi Dongjing was there.
Fu Sisi and Yu Mingyue’s eyes were still very red and swollen. It seemed like they had just cried.
“Cousin, Cousin-in-law… How did this happen? Wasn’t she fine before?”
Before Fu Sisi could finish speaking, she could not help but cry again.
She did not expect Lu Sheng to suddenly be gone.
When she cried, the others could not help but cry.
After all, the person who was still alive previously suddenly disappeared. How could everyone feel better?
“Sisi, enough!”
Yun Ting hugged the crying Fu Sisi and looked at Chu Sihan worriedly.
“I’ll go and see her. I’ll be back soon.”
Chu Sihan did not even raise his eyes and followed Chu Yun forward.
This was a cool place by the lake. It was already late autumn and a thin layer of ice had formed on the surface of the lake. The wind that blew seemed to be stinging.
Chu Sihan walked forward resolutely and stopped in front of a small house.
Lu Zhou, Shangguan Dian, and the King of Hades were sitting outside the house. When they saw him coming, they looked up at him.
“Go back first.”
Perhaps because he had been unconscious for too long and suddenly woke up, Chu Sihan’s voice was very hoarse and even carried a hint of decadence.
With Lu Zhou and the rest around, Chu Yun was at ease.
He nodded slightly and left.
Chu Sihan walked forward and stood opposite Lu Zhou. He lowered his head and sobbed. “Uncle-Master Lu, I’m sorry. I still couldn’t protect her.”
Lu Zhou sighed and patted his shoulder. “Life and death are up to fate. It’s not your fault.”
“But… she died to save me. If she didn’t save me, she wouldn’t have…”
“This is the fate she deserves. It’s just that we didn’t expect it.”
Lu Zhou’s reaction made Chu Sihan feel strange.
Given Lu Zhou’s love for Lu Sheng, he shouldn’t have acted so calmly.
“Uncle-Master Lu, Sheng Sheng’s soul…”
Lu Zhou’s eyes darted around and he said in a low voice, “I don’t know where she went. I’ve been looking for it for the past few days.”
Chu Sihan widened his eyes. “Didn’t the Emperor Ghost…”
He had always thought that Lu Sheng’s soul had been sucked by the Emperor Ghost.
However, it seemed like that was not the case.
“She’s fine. However, she should have returned to where she belongs. As to whether the two of you will interact in the future, it’s up to fate.”
Lu Zhou did not have any bad intentions, but he did not want Chu Sihan to have other thoughts.
With this body dead, Lu Sheng could no longer stay in this world.
Otherwise, she would be the one whose soul dissipated.
“Can’t we meet at the end?”
Chu Sihan was overwhelmed with emotions.
He was sad and glad. He was sad that he could not see Lu Sheng one last time. He was glad that her soul was not sucked by the Emperor Ghost.
He took a deep breath. The mighty and tall Lord Chu looked as weak as a piece of paper now.
It was as if the wind would blow him away.
Lu Zhou could not bear to see this. He could only say in a low voice, “Go in. Perhaps you can meet her for the last time.”
Chu Sihan’s gloomy eyes lit up. “Uncle-Master Lu, you’re saying that Sheng Sheng is inside?”
“How would I know if she’s there or not?” Lu Zhou guiltily moved his eyes away and said lightly, “Go in quickly. Perhaps you would be in time to say some words.”
The King of Hades smiled faintly and said, “Go in quickly.”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly and pushed the door open.
An unfamiliar girl stood in front of the coffin. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old and had a beautiful face. Her watery eyes were smiling at him.
“You are… Sheng Sheng?”
Chu Sihan asked softly.
“Ah Han.”
Although her appearance and voice were unfamiliar, this call made Chu Sihan smile with tears in his eyes.
He went forward to hug the person in front of him, but his hand passed through her body.
Both of them were stunned.
Her eyes darkened and she explained in a low voice, “I’m not a physical body. This is my soul.”
Chu Sihan nodded. A red circle appeared under his feet and Red Spider Lilies suddenly appeared around him.
His clothes also turned red.
“Done!” He smiled and reached out his hands to her.
Lu Sheng pursed her lips and smiled. She reached out to hug his waist and leaned into his arms.
“I’m leaving soon,” she said softly.
Chu Sihan did not speak, but his eyes were filled with determination.
“Don’t worry. No matter where you go, I’ll find you one day.”
Lu Sheng nodded. “I’ll wait for you!”
She retreated from his arms and looked at the corpse in the ice coffin. She said in a low voice, “Remember to bury this corpse well.”
“Okay!” Chu Sihan nodded slightly.
He loved the soul in this skin. Hence, when he saw that Lu Sheng’s soul was safe, the silent sorrow on his body immediately dissipated.
“You’re almost done chatting.” Lu Zhou walked in and reminded faintly, “She can’t stay outside for too long.”
Lu Sheng looked at Chu Sihan and smiled silently.
“Are you leaving already?”
His gaze landed on her longingly. His fists were clenched, and he seemed to be holding back something.
“Ah Han, we’ll meet again.”
Lu Sheng waved at him, then turned into a wisp of white smoke and returned to the yellow talisman in Lu Zhou’s hand.
Chu Sihan stared at the yellow talisman in Lu Zhou’s hand and his eyes flickered.
“Don’t have any bad ideas. If you accidentally destroy my daughter, I’ll kill you.”
Lu Zhou snorted coldly and kept the talisman.
Chu Sihan retracted his gaze silently and looked down at the person in the ice coffin before walking out.
