Chapter 590 The wound in his heart is getting bigger, memories are returning, and his hair and eyes
Chapter 590 The wound in his heart is getting bigger, memories are returning, and his hair and eyes are changing.
Jiang Chacha looked at Zun Yin and nodded: "Indeed, there is no hatred or anger in this world without a cause!"
He knew her; Zun Yin had also been to the M31 star system and knew her, so this was their first meeting here. She was fierce and looked down on him, as if she wished him dead.
Zun Yin's eyes grew increasingly wary and vigilant: "Jiang Chacha, what are you laughing at? You don't think that the great golden dragon in the M31 star system is the current Chongming God, and that's why I'm afraid of you?"
"Let me tell you, you have consumed my cultivation over tens of millions of years. I will not rest until you return it to me. I will definitely find a chance to kill you, devour you, and reclaim my cultivation."
Jiang Chacha took a step toward her.
Zun Yin subconsciously took a step back.
Jiang Chacha stopped in her tracks: "Did the God of Chongming threaten you?"
Zun Yin was startled to realize that he seemed afraid of her, and straightened his chest somewhat to cover it up: "You only found out because he threatened me. Let me tell you, if it weren't for the fact that I can't beat him, I would have killed you and swallowed you long ago."
Jiang Chacha suddenly said, "I'm sorry!"
Zun Yin's pupils dilated in shock. He summoned his magical artifact and sternly shouted at Jiang Chacha, "What are you? How dare you impersonate Jiang Chacha? Show your true form right now, or I'll beat you to a pulp!"
Jiang Chacha: "..."
She apologized to her, but she started to exaggerate.
Could it be that the demon persona she portrayed during the period when she lost her memory was different from her true demon self?
Jiang Chacha suddenly smiled: "Zunyin, you don't need to be nervous. I apologize to you because I want to tell you that I cannot return the cultivation I consumed from you."
"Whether you fear the God of the Deep Sea or not, whether he exists or not, if you attack me, I will fight back with all my might, because I don't want to die either."
Zun Yin frowned and looked her up and down: "Jiang Chacha, are you really Jiang Chacha, that annoying green tea tree spirit?"
Jiang Chacha's smile remained unchanged: "It's the real deal."
Zun Yin hesitated: "You seem a little different."
Jiang Chacha countered with, "Really?"
Zun Yin put away the magical artifact in his hand: "Yes, it's different now."
Jiang Chacha replied, "You've mistaken me for someone else."
Zun Yin: "..."
Did she see it wrong?
How could a great demon like her be mistaken?
She's different, but you can't quite put your finger on why.
Jiang Chacha withdrew her gaze and reached out to knock on the door of Shan Zhige's office.
Shan Zhige and Hua Taotao both looked over when they heard the knocking.
Jiang Chacha pushed open the door and went inside.
Hua Taotao and Shan Zhige stood up at the same time: "Great Demon Senior, you're back! You're so fast!"
"Jiang Cha Tea Fairy, you're back! You've worked hard. Come, have a seat!"
Jiang Chacha walked to their desks and said, "I won't sit down. I've found out how to resolve the issue of a demon and a half-demon, half-human signing a marriage contract. Do you two still need it?"
Hua Taotao's eyes lit up, and she nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I need it so much, Great Demon Senior."
Seeing her eagerness, Shan Zhige also said, "It is necessary. Making her my demon servant is already going too far by my father. I cannot bind her for eternity."
Jiang Chacha casually waved her hand, and a palm-sized green tea leaf landed on their table: "The solution to your marriage contract is on my green tea leaf. See for yourselves."
Hua Taotao quickly grabbed the green tea leaves, and on the palm-sized leaves, the law of marriage contract was written with magic.
After reading it, Hua Taotao slammed the green tea leaves onto the table, placed her hand on them, and looked at Jiang Chacha: "Great Demon Senior, this is the solution. Is there no other way?"
Jiang Chacha nodded: "Yes, there's no other way."
Hua Tao blurted out, "Wouldn't he just become an ordinary person?"
Jiang Chacha replied, "Yes, he becomes an ordinary person, but you are still you, and you will not be harmed in the slightest."
Hua Taotao then asked, "If that's the case, how does he make a living?"
Jiang Chacha: "That's his business, it has nothing to do with you."
Hua Taotao hesitated: "This..."
Jiang Chacha took in her expression: "You're struggling and hesitating, which means now is not the time to resolve the marriage contract. Think it over carefully, there's no rush."
Hua Taotao secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay..."
Jiang Chacha reminded her again: "I am not in the Three Realms of the Great Dao recently. Think it over carefully. Find Lord Xuanhu Mountain and tell him that I asked you to find him. He will protect you when you resolve the marriage contract and will not let you suffer any backlash from the contract."
Without even thinking, Hua Taotao asked, "If I am not affected by the backlash of the contract, then Shan Zhige is?"
Jiang Chacha nodded: "Yes, this is how our demon race resolves marriage contracts, so it naturally benefits us demons."
Hua Taotao's voice dimmed: "Okay, I'll think about it some more."
Jiang Chacha nodded: "Take your time to think it over, I'm going back to rest."
Hua Taotao respectfully saw her to the door, and when she returned, she saw that Shan Zhige had already picked up the green tea leaf and was looking at it.
Hua Taotao clutched her skirt as she walked over: "Master, I... I never thought that resolving our marriage contract would have such severe consequences for you."
The solution to the marriage contract is to sacrifice Shan Zhige's physical health in his cultivation. In other words, once the marriage contract is resolved, Shan Zhige will no longer possess any spiritual cultivation, and will have nothing to do with talismans, spells, or divination.
Even his current healthy body will become weak and frail, and his internal organs will develop problems, making him a short-lived person.
Dan Zhige put down the green tea leaves and walked over, pulling Hua Taotao to sit in the office chair. He bent down and placed his hands on either side of the chair.
“Hua Taotao, you are a wild peach tree spirit over a thousand years old. You have never done anything bad. You should not have been imprisoned underground by my father and allowed to bloom for a thousand years. You should not have been forced by my father to enter into a marriage contract with me.”
“All the unfair treatment and grievances you are suffering now are caused by my father. It is my father’s fault, it is my fault, and you are the only one who is not at fault.”
"If it weren't for my father, if it weren't for me, you would be a free and unfettered wild peach tree spirit, you wouldn't need to call anyone 'master,' you would be your own master."
"I think the method Jiang Chacha Fairy brought to resolve the marriage contract is quite good; at least you weren't harmed at all."
“You don’t need to worry about me. Even if I lose my cultivation, can’t be a sorcerer, and can no longer do this job, I can go and teach.”
"Also, you forgot, my father left me a lot of gold and silver treasures, antiques and paintings in his tomb. If I ever run out of money, I'll just go and open his tomb, take a painting or two pounds of gold."
“I don’t eat much. Oh, my family still has land on our old house in the mountains. We can grow fruits and vegetables, so we won’t starve.” Hua Taotao looked at him. He and his father, Shan Chenzi, were completely different kinds of people. His father was cunning, scheming, and wicked, while he seemed to be very considerate of Yao, not forcing her to do anything, and even empathizing with her.
Seeing her staring blankly at him, Shan Zhige reached out and smoothed her hair: "Hua Taotao, freedom is good, you should be free."
Hua Taotao's heart suddenly raced, and the scent of peach blossoms wafted from her body. She panicked and dared not look him in the eye, so she suddenly pushed him away.
Shan Zhige was pushed away.
Hua Taotao jumped up from the chair and rushed out as if fleeing, not forgetting to say, "Let me think about it, I'll go consider it."
Dan Zhige was speechless, then raised his voice to tell her, "Don't rush, don't panic, take your time to think it over. I'm always here for you."
Hua Taotao's face flushed, and her ears turned bright red: "Oh, I understand."
She rushed out of his office like the wind, leaving behind a strong fragrance of peach blossoms as she passed through the office area.
Zun Yin, who was still in the office area: "..."
These two demons are acting like they're sick. If it weren't for the latest agreement in the Three Realms, or if she weren't unable to defeat her sister, she would have devoured all these demons, humans, and monsters.
However… Jiang Chacha is really different. She needs to investigate her thoroughly and see if she can find a suitable opportunity to kill her and eat her.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Jiang Chacha returned to her room in the Great Dao Three Realms, a sharp pain shooting through her heart. She clutched her chest and coughed violently, as if her heart was being torn apart.
Warm blood overflowed from her heart, soaking her clothes and dripping out from between her fingers as she covered her heart.
After Jiang Chacha finished coughing, she spread out her hands, which were covered in scarlet blood. She moved her fingers and felt the blood was so hot and thick, and her heart ached.
She didn’t know why it hurt so much. She didn’t remember anything. It was just the Kunwu sword that pierced her heart, not fatally. Why did a huge hole appear in her heart, and why was the hole getting bigger and bigger?
She consumed so many pills and drank so much celestial dew; divine and demonic power shone upon her and nourished her body. Why is she still like this? Why?
Could it be that this is punishment, punishment for her not remembering anything, punishment for her forgetting her vow to Chongming?
Yes, given her personality, when she loves someone and falls in love with someone, she will weigh the pros and cons and think things through carefully. Once she accepts someone, she will promise them forever and ever.
"Cough cough cough, pfft!"
Jiang Chacha coughed again and spat out a mouthful of blood when she thought of the eight words "forever and ever".
"Tuk Tuk Tuk!"
Several knocks sounded on the door!
Jiang Chacha hurriedly reached out to touch her mouth. Her hand was already covered in blood, and wiping it on her mouth didn't remove the blood; instead, it smeared it onto her face, making her look even more disheveled.
She used her magic to cleanse the blood on the ground and the blood on her body, then took out a cloak, draped it over herself, and went to open the door.
Hua Taotao appeared at the door with a grin, looking innocent and adorable: "Great Demon Senior, I wanted to come and have a chat with you?"
Jiang Chacha opened the door: "Okay, come in."
Hua Taotao smiled brightly: "Thank you, Senior Demon."
Jiang Chacha closed the door and, with Hua Taotao in tow, went to the sofa by the French windows: "Sit down!"
Hua Taotao sat down, her smile both bright and somewhat forced and nervous.
Jiang Chacha pulled her cloak tighter around herself and sat down opposite her. "What do you want to talk to me about? Tell me."
Hua Taotao's smile vanished instantly: "Great Demon Senior, is this really the only way to dissolve my marriage contract with Shan Zhige?"
Jiang Chacha replied, "Yes, there is only this one. He is half-demon and half-human, and you are a demon. If he is human, demon or demon, pure, it would be better."
“But he is half-demon and half-human, and his body has demon blood, which is also from the demon royal family. This makes him even more difficult to deal with. I have already searched through all the demon contracts to find such a method.”
Hua Taotao bit her lip lightly: "He is a sorcerer from the mortal realm. He possesses cultivation; he can draw talismans, chant incantations, capture ghosts, trap demons, and even fight monsters. If..."
Jiang Chacha interrupted her: "You can't bear to part with it?"
Hua Taotao's voice stopped abruptly, her hands gripping her skirt tightly.
Jiang Chacha gave a pale, forced smile: "Hua Taotao, you can't bear to part with him. You've developed feelings for him after spending so little time together."
"You can't tell whether your relationship with him is based on a contractual master-servant bond, or simply because you're head over heels in love, and you don't even realize it, right?"
Hua Taotao opened her mouth, hesitated for a long time, and replied, "A little..."
Jiang Chacha asked again, "You want freedom, but you're also afraid, you're conflicted, because your freedom will kill him soon?"
Hua Taotao nodded: "Yes,"
Jiang Chacha: "So you came to ask me, wanting to find a way to have the best of both worlds?"
Hua Taotao: "Yes..."
Jiang Chacha took a deep breath: "Hua Taotao, there are no obstacles between you and him."
"His father imprisoned you for a thousand years, but did not harm you. In fact, he protected you to a great extent from the persecution of other demon hunters in the human world."
"After you were freed, he kept you by his side, fed you, gave you everything you wanted, and did not treat you as a demon servant."
"Even if you two were tricked into marriage by his father, he would be the one suffering and in pain during your tribulations. Even if you didn't want the marriage, he would agree to it without hesitation."
"He has no one he loves, no demons, no ghosts, no monsters, and neither do you. His closest relatives are dead, and you have no close relatives. There are no obstacles between you two."
"Great Demon Senior, what do you mean..."
"What I mean is, when you're unsure, when you're reluctant to let go, just wait and see."
"We are demons. If nothing unexpected happens, we can live for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. We have plenty of time to wait and to think. Of course, this is on the premise that there are no obstacles."
Dan Chenzi arranged their engagement, presumably because she knew they were destined for each other and that her son would be attracted to a simple, wild peach blossom fairy like her.
Most importantly, they faced no obstacles; no one would stop them from falling in love.
Unlike her, her maternal grandmother was stopping her. She couldn't turn against her grandmother, she couldn't question her grandmother's years of nurturing, and she couldn't abandon her grandmother to choose Chongming.
Hua Taotao remained silent for a long time before suddenly standing up and bowing to Jiang Chacha: "Thank you, Senior Demon. You are right. Instead of agonizing over it, being uncertain and reluctant, I should just wait a little longer."
"Once I'm sure I can let go, I'll dissolve my marriage with him. Anyway, it won't have any impact in the meantime."
Jiang Chacha's lips curled slightly: "If you've thought it through, then it's fine. I'm a little tired, so I won't see you out. Just close the door for me..."
"Great Demon Senior, what's wrong with you?" Hua Taotao's eyes suddenly widened, staring straight at her: "Your green hair is slowly turning black, and your green eyes are turning black too!"
