The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity-Chapter 443 - 441: Seeing Mother’s Soul
Chapter 443: Chapter 441: Seeing Mother’s Soul
Upon hearing Chu Yan’s call, the person inside the house looked up.
That venerable yet beautiful face had appeared many times in Chu Yan’s dreams. Each time he felt he couldn’t continue, she would look at him tenderly, allowing Chu Yan to reaffirm his beliefs.
He had to make those who had bullied his mother pay the price.
"Mom."
Chu Yan’s eyes reddened, the usually cold Phoenix Eyes now slightly moist.
He staggered towards the house.
Chu Hanxu took his hand gently and said, "You’ve grown up, your clothes are getting tight. Let mom alter them for you."
The clothes needing mending on the table seemed to be the ones Chu Yan had worn as a child.
"How did you grow so tall? Mom almost couldn’t recognize you."
Chu Hanxu sat, needing to look up at him.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yan knelt beside her, resting his head on her lap and holding her waist.
"Did you know I was bringing Qin Zhao home, so you came to see us?"
Chu Hanxu didn’t speak, and Chu Yan continued, "I’m already settled down, you don’t need to worry about my life.
Soon, I will make those people pay, to give you closure."
"Ai."
Chu Hanxu sighed.
This sound seemed elusive, as if coming from the horizon.
Bang, bang, bang!
The cold wind outside was fierce, causing the doors and windows to rattle.
The weather suddenly turned grimly cold, the warm yellow light inside the room now seemed somewhat sinister.
Chu Hanxu stretched out her hand to touch Chu Yan’s head, when suddenly, her gentle expression vanished, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, and her slender fingers grew sharp nails.
"Have you seen Qin Zhao? She’s my favorite person, I hope you like her too."
Chu Yan had many, many things he wanted to say to his mother.
Because she had died early, he hadn’t even seen her soul.
Seeing her now, he knew this thing by his side was a ghost, but he didn’t care.
He just wanted to talk a bit more with his mother.
"The person you like, mom will naturally like."
As Chu Hanxu finished speaking, the sharp red nails were about to pierce the back of Chu Yan’s head.
With a loud bang,
The nearby door shattered into pieces, a ghastly ghost rushed in, its heavy ghost energy knocking Chu Yan to the ground and directly throwing Chu Hanxu out.
"Ah!"
Chu Hanxu screamed.
Chu Yan looked towards the door, only to see an extremely ugly female ghost floating there.
The female ghost’s face was all scarred from burns, and so was her body, her hair uneven, the ends charred, her features bloody and indistinct.
She looked at Chu Yan, opened her mouth as if trying to say something.
But she couldn’t make a sound, there was no tongue inside her mouth.
The female ghost pointed at the thrown Chu Hanxu, shook her head at Chu Yan, eyes filled with worry and urgency.
"Son."
Chu Hanxu’s weak voice came through.
"Mom!"
Chu Yan hurried to her side, seeing her face pallid.
"She’s going to eat me, save me!"
Chu Hanxu clutched at Chu Yan’s sleeve, trembling all over.
"What exactly are you? You better leave immediately, or don’t blame me for being rude."
Chu Yan looked coldly at the female ghost in the doorway, Phoenix Eyes showing a hint of murderous intent.
The female ghost froze on the spot, looking somewhat at a loss.
Her lips kept moving—she had so much to say but couldn’t get the words out.
The woman beside Chu Yan noticed his attention was fixed on the female ghost, who revealed a bloody, gruesome appearance and gaped at Chu Yan with a gaping mouth.
Her facial skin twisted in waves, looking nothing like Chu Hanxu!
The female ghost flew toward them, pulled Chu Yan away, and punched him in the face.
The surging ghost energy carried a fierce aura, and the room was filled with black mist.
"Ah! Son, save me!"
Chu Yan saw Chu Hanxu about to be dispersed by the female ghost’s blows. Anxious, he quickly struck at the female ghost.
The female ghost was thrown out, and her soul weakened considerably.
In her gaze toward Chu Yan, there was immense sadness and pain.
A pang struck Chu Yan’s heart, but he didn’t know why.
"Son, kill her quickly! She has been haunting me, wanting to devour me. I used to hide, but when I found out you and your wife were coming back from out of town, I came out to see you.
Wuwuwu, please help me kill her."
Chu Hanxu hid behind Chu Yan, shivering with fear.
"She is the Ghost King of this mountain, specifically preying on our kind of souls, preventing us from reincarnating."
Chu Yan raised his hand; spiritual power gathered in his palm.
With his current ability, he could easily disperse the female ghost with one palm.
But seeing the look in her eyes, he hesitated to strike.
"You leave now and don’t come back for my mom, or I won’t forgive you."
In the end, Chu Yan pulled back all his spiritual power.
The female ghost sat down on the ground, hugging her knees, with two lines of bloody tears rolling down her face.
Chu Yan didn’t know why she was crying; she was the one trying to hurt others.
Yet, seeing her cry made him feel terrible.
"Don’t cry anymore; just go."
The female ghost’s clothes were also worn and scorched in places.
She wiped her bloody tears with her sleeve and shakily floated up.
Her soul seemed much fainter.
Seeing her leave, Chu Hanxu sighed in relief.
Though the female ghost had left, she hadn’t completely gone away but rather hid herself.
She hung upside down from the window’s eave, revealing only her eyes that continued to watch Chu Yan inside.
Her gaze toward Chu Yan forever carried a faint sadness.
Inside, Chu Hanxu grabbed Chu Yan’s hand and said, "Son, I haven’t reincarnated yet. Can you do something for me?"
"What is it?"
"Tomorrow, can you find a woman with the same birth chart as mine and bring her to see me?"
"Why do you need someone like that?"
"If she worships me, it can make my soul stronger, so I can be reincarnated into a better life. Mom’s life this time has been too hard; I want a better next life."
"Can this really make your soul better?"
Chu Yan was skeptical; as a cultivator, he had never heard of such a method.
"I heard it from other ghosts; just try finding someone. Also, you’re my only relative; you need to fill a bowl with your blood and place it on my grave."
"What’s that for?"
"What else? It’s just to give me some peace of mind down there. You were born from me; all parts of you are mine, so giving me some blood shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
Hearing this, Chu Yan felt something was off.
Before he could think further, the sound of breaking glass came from the window.
The female ghost had returned with a fierce expression.
Apparently agitated, she wildly lunged at Chu Hanxu, seemingly determined to kill her.
"Stop it!"
The female ghost fueled her soul power, becoming incredibly strong, compelling Chu Yan to counter her with all his strength.
