Chapter 288 Story about a ghost
His chest was empty and transparent.
“Dispersed?” He Danggui was surprised. If he was dispersed, who was she talking with? She asked, “What are you?”
Regardless of her rudeness, Qi Xuanyu replied after dressing himself, “I was a memory. You can see me as the reflection of my resentment. Resentment will not easily dissipate after one’s death.”
He Danggui agreed with him. She squinted Qi Xuanyu and asked, “That Taoist guy is in Nihon now. Why don’t you go there to kill him?”
Qi Xuanyu smiled, “I have my reasons. However, the point is that you are connected with Zhu Quan this life. You will become his wife eventually.” Seeing her unbelievable expression, he added, “When my memory was attached to that eagle, I flew to Lord Ning’s Mansion three months later. I saw a dying woman in the water dungeon. I was so anxious, but I was unable to save you. I controlled that eagle to peck the lock, but it didn’t work. Just at this point, Bai Yangbai arrived. He cast a spell to transform you out of the dungeon without opening the lock. He covered you with the snow before arranging a tactical matrix and finding the antidote for you. Later, Zhu Quan got there and destroyed the fence to find you. Soon, I realized that I was too weak to do anything for you. I knew you are the reincarnation of my princess, but I couldn’t save you.”
“You don’t have to blame yourself.” He Danggui comforted him, “You have a happy life now. You can feel free and easy to live in the Mansion without worrying about the passage of time. You are unfettered.”
“That’s right.” Qi Xuanyu answered, “We followed the young Zhu Quan to come to the mansion, and then I still live in the eagle’s body. However, the spirit of the middle-aged Zhu Quan kept lingering the young Zhu Quan around. He spared no effort to influence the young buddy to make him fall in love with you. He wanted the kid to marry you as soon as possible so that he could correct his fault. But things did not go as he wished. The young one started to hate you. He thought you were the cause of his nightmares.”
He Danggui got his point. She said, “No wonder I didn’t see him in the past three years. It is not his style to give up his favorite thing.”
Qi Xuanyu laughed, “Miss He, Zhu Quan is not that bad. He is a reasonable person. You can try to communicate with him. I believe you will fall in love with him again.”
He Danggui became angry, “You are his lobbyist.”
Qi Xuanyu waved his hands, “Hold your horses. Today, the spirit debris of the middle-aged Zhu Quan has been fused with the young Zhu Quan. But that debris is too little to manipulate the young one. In other words, he is completely gone. So, the young buddy does not love you at all for now. In the previous life, we were only partners in small cooperation. Therefore, I’m not in a position to help him.”
“Then why did you say that we will marry?” He Danggui angrily said, “Don’t you see my sufferings? Why do you want me to marry him? You should at least have a little heart!”
Qi Xuanyu, as a reflection of resentment, showed his calmness after experiencing a lot. He did not take He Danggui’s accusation seriously. Instead, he answered slowly, “In the course of their fusion, I also did something. I made this Qizhen Fantasy Dream according to what I learned from Bai Yangbai in my previous life. On the one hand, I find myself a place to live in; on the other hand, I duplicate these figures in the Mansion for Zhu Quan to recall your love under my guidance. If he could love you again, you two will have a happy ending.”
He Danggui was so angry that she stamped her feet, “None of my business! I don’t care who he is, nor who he loves. I only have one thing for sure that I won’t connect with him. I will try my best to keep away from him.”
Qi Xuanyu was slightly surprised, “I thought you were touched by the memories. A person like Zhu Quan became a nut and even got his spirit dispersed. Don’t you have any feelings?”
He Danggui sneered, “Why don’t you use your third eye to see how much I have paid? He deserved that a terrible ending because he did so many bad things. By the way, I didn’t make him die in that way, and I will never marry him in this life for that stupid reason.”
“What about for Meng Xuan?” Qi Xuanyu asked.
“Excuse me?” He Danggui froze there. How dared this fucking ghost-like thing threaten her with Meng Xuan?
Qi Xuanyu held his hands behind and laughed, “I am the Master Prophet. I can predict people’s future. You are one of the most important persons to me, so I’ve been watching you since I came here. I predicted your future several days ago when you were fourteen-year-old. You and Meng Xuan had a predestined relationship. However, after the spirit fragments of Zhu Quan came into this life, your relationship was broken. What’s more, his resentment even threatened Meng Xuan’s life.”
“You mean that Zhu Quan wants to kill Meng Xuan?”
Qi Xuanyu shook his head, “I don’t know. No trigram could make such a detailed prediction. I only know that Zhu Quan will be angry about your marriage, and he will try to take you away from him. Besides, Meng Xuan will die at the age of twenty, and…”
“Stop it!” He Danggui interrupted him. “What kind of Master Prophet are you? You even didn’t know when you will die, and how dare you to define ours?”
“How do you know I didn’t?” Qi Xuanyu asked. “If the trigram told a 10% chance to live, I would hide in the mountains to avoid dangerousness. However, my trigram showed a 100% chance to die, and what could I do? I preferred to travel abroad before my death. Maybe I could learn where was the Tenth Princess if I was lucky.” Seeing He Danggui was stunned, he smiled and added, “Presumably, you don’t need love anymore. Don’t worry. After Meng Xuan’s death, you will remarry Bai Yangbai, and have a happy life.”
He Danggui continued to ridicule Qi Xuanyu, “I am done with your nonsense. If you feel bored, go chatting with Zhu Quan’s concubines right now. They love gossiping with a fortune-teller.”
But Qi Xuanyu continued his talking, “Well, Bai Yangbai is also not your destination. A few years later, you will leave him to marry Zhu Quan. Bai Yangbai will be sad because of your abandonment. He will die in an explosion of the pill furnace. After that, you will become Zhu Quan’s exclusive domain. I don’t know how he will treat you, but you will be the princess after Xie Qiaofeng’s death.”
He Danggui tried to explain, but she could finally say nothing but a promise, “I will prove you are wrong.” Anyway, she would never marry Zhu Quan even if he was the last man alive. Qi Xuanyu was a liar.
Qi Xuanyu sighed, “I wish you to skip the two marriages and marry Zhu Quan directly. If you do, Meng Xuan and Bai Yangbai may not die, and you will avoid two heart breakings. I will utilize the Dream to guide Zhu Quan to love you.”
“Where is he?” He Danggui interrupted him, “I mean the young Zhu Quan. I remember he was here just now.”
“I moved him to another place.” Qi Xuanyu smiled, “This is my place. I have a lot of useful matrixes and traps. Even if Zhu Quan is the apprentice of Bai Yangbai, he is not as strong as me here. By the way, his Kungfu doesn’t work here, because he wants to kill that Concubine He to stop Lord Ning from loving her in the Dream. If I don’t do that, he would destroy the Dream.”
He Danggui was silent for a long while before concluding, “You are good at prophecy, but I believe that man can conquer nature. Nothing is doomed. You cannot tell my life with several shells. If I believe what you said, to be a nun will be the best solution for me, because nobody will die for that.”
Qi Xuanyu was also silent. Then, he turned around, “The Dream is funny. Take your time to enjoy it. If you want to ask me for advice next time, it will be difficult for you to come here.”
“For what?” Though He Danggui did not want to come here again, she was eager to know the reasons in case of some emergencies. She asked, “How can I come back?”
Qi Xuanyu flew away instantly, leaving a lingering sound, “How did you come here this time?”
He Danggui frowned. She remembered that she entered the Dream when Zhu Quan bit her lip against the veil, because he wanted her to feel the pain in her heart.
So, Zhu Quan’s kiss was the key…
Damn it! She wouldn’t do it again! Anyway, she had gotten the information, but she would not come back again.
Qi Xuanyu must talk with her for some reason. She had never seen any selfless saints. She thought Bai Yangbai was her close friend, yet it turned out that he was only curious about her Yunqi Acupuncture. She used to ask him to help her deal with Zhu Quan, but he slipped away quickly as soon as Zhu Quan arrived at Luo’s Mansion. Apparently, he didn’t want to offend Zhu Quan. Moreover, Bai Yangbai was Zhu Quan’s uncle. No wonder he taught all his skills to Zhu Quan unreservedly, even though he hated Zhu Yuanzhang that much!
She should never believe a fortune teller wholeheartedly. Qi Xuanyu was a big mystery. If he loved the Tenth Princess, he should have wished to continue their story in this life. Why did he want her to marry that repulsive Zhu Quan?
If she didn’t want Meng Xuan to get hurt, maybe she should not marry him. If so, he would not be sad when she left, and he would not be hurt in the Dream. Thinking of that, she relieved and took a deep breath. She decided to fight Shangguan Mingri for another round.
