Chapter 819: Becoming Soul Mates
Summit of Chasing the Deer.
"I heard Your Majesty brought the mistress back! Is that true?"
"Of course! I saw it with my own eyes! Your Majesty treats the mistress really well! I've never seen Your Majesty be so attentive to any woman!"
"Before I heard those rumors I was still doubtful, but now I really believe it!"
The servants of the Summit of Chasing the Deer gathered together, discussing heatedly.
Not far away, Lady Lan brought a few maidservants and overheard this conversation; one maid said, "Madam, I used to think Fu Hanxiu loved Ye Qingran so much, but I never expected he still hasn't realized that this Ye Qingran is no longer that Ye Qingran!"
A hint of mockery appeared on the maid's face.
Lady Lan gave a dismissive smile, "What's so strange about that? Men are all like that—where is there any lasting affection? In the end, nothing can withstand a night of spring passion."
Just then, a guard came running in. "Madam, Fu Hanxiu took Luo Qingcheng to Lu Shen Feng."
Lady Lan raised her brows, pondered a moment, and asked, "What are they going to do?"
"I heard Fu Hanxiu is going to become soul mates with Luo Qingcheng!"
"I wouldn't have guessed, he's actually quite deep‑feeling!"
You should know, the so‑called soul mate is akin to a contract: it binds the two souls together, and neither party may betray the other, or else both will be annihilated!
Moreover, after becoming soul mates, their fates are intertwined; if one perishes, the other will surely follow!
"But Fu Hanxiu is utterly foolish! He has no idea that the Ye Qingran he loves is already dead, and the person he's with is the enemy who killed Ye Qingran!"
Lady Lan's maid narrowed her eyes, her face full of mockery toward Fu Hanxiu.
Lady Lan chuckled upon hearing it, "Come, let's also go to Lu Shen Feng to have a look. You say after they finish the soul‑mate contract, I'll tell him the truth—won't he be devastated?"
Just imagining Fu Hanxiu learning the truth made her feel immensely satisfied.
Although Fu Hanxiu is her son, she especially loathes him, for all the suffering she endured was brought by this evil spawn Fu Hanxiu!
"Madam, he definitely will! But what then? He wouldn't dare do anything to you, and as for Luo Qingcheng, their souls are bound—would he really dare to kill her?"
"Madam, the Summit of Chasing the Deer is right ahead."
Outside the Summit of Chasing the Deer, Fu Er pointed at the magnificent, sprawling palace before them.
Ye Qingran had no mind to admire it; at this moment she took off her cloak, revealing a completely unfamiliar face.
She had encountered this body by chance. At that time the girl had just breathed her last, her soul had barely dissipated, and she seized the corpse once more.
Unfortunately, this body is very weak, making her ill‑at‑ease; without Qiongqi's help she wouldn't know what to do.
Of course, everything about this body is quite ordinary; lacking memories, she also doesn't know why the original owner committed suicide.
At that moment, a peak somewhere on the Summit of Chasing the Deer suddenly flashed with lightning and thunder, and heaven and earth changed color.
"It's Lu Shen Feng!"
Fu Er's expression changed, and Ye Qingran caught it.
"What's wrong with Lu Shen Feng?"
"Madam, Lu Shen Feng is inscribed with a Great Array; it is not only a channel for the Summit of Chasing the Deer to communicate with the outside, but also has the ability to resonate with the laws of heaven and earth."
Fu Er's face grew very solemn.
Whenever Lu Shen Feng shows any movement, it is never a good omen!
"What on earth is going on?" Ye Qingran asked in a low voice.
"Madam, Lu Shen Feng is exhibiting this disturbance now; I think it's extremely likely that Your Majesty intends to become soul mates with Luo Qingcheng!"
Soul mates?
Ye Qingran's pupils trembled, "Let's go!"
The two shot toward Lu Shen Feng at top speed.
Lu Shen Feng.
"Hanxiu, is this the Lu Shen Feng you spoke of?"
Luo Qingcheng occupied Ye Qingran's body, casting a shy glance.
Across from her, Fu Hanxiu was handsome and imposing, like an emperor.
Luo Qingcheng's heart pounded.
This was the first time she had been this close to the Emperor Sovereign!
His aura made her heart sway.
Indeed, the Emperor Sovereign of the Summit of Chasing the Deer is the most perfect man in this world—far surpassing those male favorites she had known before!
"Not bad, this is Lu Shen Feng."
Luo Qingcheng bit her lower lip, gazing at the Great Array before her, feeling blissful.
The Emperor Sovereign said he would become soul mates with her, so that they would forever belong to each other.
The Emperor Sovereign also said that after they become soul mates, he will marry her with a ten‑mile bridal procession!
She would soon become the Emperor Sovereign's woman, the mistress of the Summit of Chasing the Deer, and the envy of all in the Profound Void!
"Go on, I've already opened the Soul Binding Array for you."
"You're not coming?" Becoming soul mates should be a matter for two people, shouldn't it?
"You go first; I need to give Fu San a few instructions."
Luo Qingcheng didn't think much, obediently walking toward the Great Array.
With each step she took, her smile grew a bit brighter.
She was walking toward happiness!
After Luo Qingcheng walked away, Fu Hanxiu turned and looked at Fu San, who stood silently not far behind.
"What are you thinking about?"
Fu San furrowed his brows, unsure whether to speak or stay silent.
"Speak quickly."
"Your Majesty, I always feel that she is not the real lady!"
During this period of interaction, Fu San increasingly finds Ye Qingran abnormal.
What shocked him most was that when she learned Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen had left the Peak of the Pursuing Deer, she showed not the slightest reaction, merely allowing Han Xing Leng Yue and a few others to search for them.
This is too abnormal!
A dark glint flashed in Fu Hanxiu's eyes. "Stop overthinking; later, follow my command to activate the Great Array." Saying this, Fu Hanxiu handed a Talisman for activating the Great Array to Fu San, who, distracted, took it and gave a perfunctory nod.
At this moment, Luo Qingcheng was already standing on the Great Array, waving at Fu Hanxiu, "Hanxiu, come quickly."
"I'm coming." Fu Hanxiu nodded and walked toward Luo Qingcheng.
Fu San watched the scene, frowned, and muttered to himself, "Is it really not just my illusion? She really is so different from before!"
At that moment, a footstep sound came from behind him; Fu San turned his head and saw Lan Furen and her party arriving.
"Lan Furen!"
Seeing Lan Furen, Luo Qingcheng bowed from afar and greeted.
"I heard the servants say you two are to become Soul Mate, so I came to see. Qingran, Hanxiu, you truly are a match made by heaven and earth!"
Lan Furen smiled gently, her eyes also warm, presenting the demeanor of a benevolent mother; no one could have imagined she once would abandon her own child.
When Lan Furen appeared, Fu Hanxiu's face became cold and composed, as if he were seeing not his mother but an enemy.
"Alright, you may begin quickly; I can't delay you for long!"
Lan Furen waved her hand and urged.
She was already impatient to see Fu Hanxiu's joke!
At that moment, Fu Hanxiu gave Fu San a look; Fu San nodded in response, preparing to trigger the Great Array.
"Hold on!"
At that instant, a clear shout rang out, and in the next moment two figures landed on Lu Shen Feng.
