The Charm of Soul Pets

Chapter 1618

......


Chu Tianmang was familiar with the workings of the chaotic s.p.a.ce. Due to owning a Strange Mane Demon, he had often encountered s.p.a.cetime currents and spatial storms when entering and exiting some of the isolated s.p.a.ces.


However, drifting between the two realms for a long time like that was a first for him.


Without oxygen, food or water, he had to continue avoiding the devastation from the chaotic s.p.a.ce. It was absolutely fortunate for him that he was able to survive from such a collapsed s.p.a.ce.


Unfortunately, Chu Tianmang had fallen unconscious before he could return to the normal s.p.a.ce.


He could not remember really anything after he had fallen unconscious. He only sensed that someone was carrying him to a certain place.


Feeling the numbness from his body, he opened his eyes hazily. He noticed that he was lying on a bed in a well decorated room. A silver new moon symbol was drawn on the ceiling above him. The afternoon sunlight was s.h.i.+ning gently onto a jadestone table beside the window. There were medicines and herbs of various hues spread out on top of it.


Turning his gaze slightly to the side, he saw a blus.h.i.+ng girl standing next to him who was focusing on tending to his wounds. She did not seem to notice that he had woken up......


“Ahem,” Chu Tianmang coughed lightly.


“You’re awake?” The girl revealed a smile on her face and it looked rather pure.


Chu Tianmang did not reply, he only focused on this girl who had helped with his treatment.


“This is New Moon Palace, uncle Bai Yu had saved you and he had asked me to treat your injuries,” The girl seemed to be rather lively and told Chu Tianmang the situation oh her own.


“New Moon Palace?” Chu Tianmang was surprised by what she said.


“Yeah, you must have heard it before, right?” said the girl.


“Yes,” Chu Tianmang would have never thought that he would be rescued by someone from the New Moon Palace, and the famous Half Devil Bai Yu at that.


When he was trapped between the realms, he could only sense someone who similarly possessed the spatial ability nearby. So, he kept knocking on the s.p.a.ce within that region and hoped that the other party could somehow chip open a small hole in the s.p.a.ce. He had never expected such a coincidence would occur.


Chu Tianmang and Bai Yu had a little friends.h.i.+p from back in New Moon Land. At that time, Bai Yu had not become a half devil yet.


After so many years, Bai Yu could not properly recognize him.


It was rather normal since his face was now full of scars. There was no way Bai Yu could really recognize him.


Not to mention Bai Yu, even Liu Binglan probably could not recognize him as he was now.


“Your Honor Female Supreme, you have arrived,” Suddenly, a sweet voice of a maidservant came from outside the room.


Chu Tianmang immediately recognized the light and orderly footsteps. This caused him to feel slightly awkward. Speaking of the devil, did she find out already?


“Pleaes don’t move. Your body is covered in wounds, just lie down. Her Honor Female Supreme may seem cold from the outside, but she’s a nice person inside,” whispered the girl.


Chu Tianmang smiled bitterly in reply. How could he not know whether she was nice or not?


Not long after, a beautiful, charming and mature woman walked into the room from behind the screen. Her elegant robe perfectly emphasized her serene and n.o.ble aura, as well as her well proportioned body.


She had an astonis.h.i.+ngly beautiful face that could easily mesmerize people. Of course, if that face did not display a coldness that rejected everyone, it would have been even more perfect.


Chu Tianmang had not seen her from up close in a long time. He had to admit that, no matter how many years had pa.s.sed, her beauty was still truly captivating.


Many youths would clearly s.p.a.ce out for a long time after they saw Liu Binglan. They would even mess up their own words and become fairly nervous. Chu Tianmang was not as inexperienced as them after all. After snapping back to reality, he examined Liu Binglan’s expression very seriously, trying to see if she had recognized him......


Unfortunately, Liu Binglan had an icy expression on her face most of the time. Her gaze showed no signs of fluctuation of her emotions at all. Chu Tianmang could not even make a guess as to what she was thinking. So he decided to simply talk and silently hoped that the scars on his face to be either very little, or way too many.


“How’s his injury?” asked Liu Binglan after taking a glance at the girl who greeted her.


“He’s mostly fine, just that there are quite a lot of wounds all over his body and it will be really difficult to treat them,” answered the girl with blushed cheeks.


“Use these medicines,” Liu Binglan opened her spatial ring and pa.s.sed the medicines that were refined by Ye Qingzi to the girl.


“Yes, I have already applied the ointment to his wounds. Once the medicinal effect of those ointments is absorbed, I will change to these,” replied the girl positively. She carefully put these medicines into another medicine cabinet.


Liu Binglan approached the bed and closely examined this refugee who was covered in wounds.


After a long silence, Liu Binglan looked at the eyes of the refugee and spoke, “Have we ever met before?”


Chu Tianmang’s heart instantly skipped a beat, thinking: It shouldn’t be possible. I’m already this disfigured, how can she still recognize me?


Chu Tianmang and Liu Binglan did not really hold a wedding ceremony. The time that they were together was also not as long as most of the other married couples. If not for Chu Mu, they would probably have been on their own paths by now.


Chu Tianmang was really confused. His physique should have already changed greatly after so many years had pa.s.sed. Be it his size, facial shape, gaze and aura, he was a completely different person from his past now. In addition to that, his body was now full of wounds and ointment, she should definitely not be able to recognize him!


“When I was a.s.saulted on Zhengming City’s street last time, were you the one who helped me? I remember your eyes,” Liu Binglan continued.


“......” Chu Tianmang opened his mouth and was about to admit to his ident.i.ty, but Liu Binglan’s words had abruptly stopped him.


So it’s from that matter, looks like she didn’t recognize me. Chu Tianmang heaved a sigh of relief.


“Yes, it’s me,” Chu Tianmang went along with Liu Binglan’s words and nodded in reply.


“Why did you help me?” asked Liu Binglan perplexed.


“Pa.s.sed by,” replied Chu Tianmang shortly.


“Oh,” Liu Binglan did not probe any further and spoke, “Rest and recover from your wounds.”


After finis.h.i.+ng those words, Liu Binglan turned around and briskly left.


Pa.s.sed by? Liu Binglan naturally would not believe that he had saved her just because he happened to have pa.s.sed by. However, since he was unwilling to speak about it, she also could not force him.


......


Chu Tianmang took half a month to recover himself. Bai Yu had visited him once during this period, but the two of them did not really talk much. Liu Binglan had visited him another two times. Chu Tianmang had too many things to take into consideration, so he did not really reveal anything......


After half a month had pa.s.sed, the masked Chu Tianmang bade farewell. Liu Binglan did not pay much attention about that. He had saved her once before, she had also helped him recover. So they both did not owe each other anything anymore. She naturally was not going to stop him if he wanted to leave. Just that it was unfortunate that she could not manage to recruit such an expert to New Moon Palace.


After leaving the New Moon Palace, Chu Tianmang went straight to Mu City. His injuries had not really fully recovered yet, just that he could move around freely now.


After reaching Mu City, he went directly into a private pavilion. Two statue-like men were guarding the pavilion. When they saw Chu Tianmang walking in, they immediately greeted respectfully.


Chu Tianmang quickly climbed to the highest floor of the pavilion. After pa.s.sing through a few screens, he could clearly see a n.o.ble-looking woman half leaning on the fence.


The back of that woman seemed to be a little lonely and gloomy.


There was another person standing next to that woman. He was middle-aged and had dark skin. He seemed really plain and might easily go by unnoticed.


However, Chu Tianmang was a little surprised after he saw him. He was the famous Dark Hand of the Darkness Sect. His strength was really close to those leader rank people.


He never really managed things in the Darkness Sect and was always uncontactable. However, he had showed up in Mu City this time and seemed to be acting as a guard. Did the terrifying Darkness Sect Magnate scheme something again?


“You’re not dead yet?” Dark Hand saw that the person approaching them was the rumored dead Heaven Slaughter and revealed a surprised expression on his dark-skinned face.


“Tenacious,” answered Chu Tianmang plainly.


After the woman heard Chu Tianmang’s voice, she immediately turned around and her gloominess was immediately replaced by surprise and excitement instead.


The woman was left speechless. She just rushed towards Chu Tianmang and held his waist tightly as she dove into his bosom.


“Miss......” Dark Hand did not expect her to really behave like that and was unsure whether to stop her or not.


Chu Tianmang was also startled by her actions. He did not think that Miss Si would suddenly hug him like that.


Fragrance lingered and a soft body in his bosom, Chu Tianmang knew that Miss Si was excited because of his survival and could not just push her away.


“I...... I was just thinking of a way to avenge you...... but now...... you’re actually alive......” said Miss Si incoherently.


“Has that Chief also escaped?” asked Chu Tianmang.


“Yes, he’s also heavily wounded,” replied Miss Si.


Chu Tianmang took a slight distance from Miss Si discreetly and spoke, “I will handle it myself.”


As Chief kept going after his life time after time, he had already grown quite furious. Once he gained the seventh Monument Tear, he would definitely make Chief pay dearly with his blood!


“Heaven Slaughter, why did you save that person? If you hadn"t save him, then you would have been safe,” asked Miss Si.


Chu Tianmang took a glance at Dark Hand. He did not really want Dark Hand to hear some of these things.


Miss Si also understood the meaning of Chu Tianmang’s glance, she led Chu Tianmang into another room.


“Si Yumi, I told you that before I had joined Darkness Sect, I had a son,” said Chu Tianmang.


“Is that him?” asked Si Yumi.


Chu Tianmang nodded.


“This time, New Moon Palace had saved me. I rested there for half a month,” said Chu Tianmang.


“You met with that woman? I know that she’s currently in Zhengming Main City,” Si Yumi’s tone was rather strange.


“We did.”


“Then, past love reignited?” continued Si Yumi.


Chu Tianmang took a glance at Si Yumi. He somehow felt that her tone was rather weird.


He and Liu Binglan were husband and wife. Although it was in name only now, they did not seek new partners after separating. It was normal to hold lingering feelings. How could she call it past love reignited?
