Chapter 943: A Sliver of Compassion

~8 min read 1,410 words

"You would develop feelings for a human cub?" Chen Yu felt it was inconceivable.

"Hehe, I am indeed not human, but I have also had the experience of being a mother. Although we monsters accidentally obtained a sliver of good fortune and had the hope of achieving human form, I often think, if my descendants could also take human form, would I be able to enjoy the happiness of family life now?"

"That is likely not very realistic." Chen Yu shook his head and said, "You being able to comprehend a sliver of Heavenly Dao and achieving human form was an accident in itself. A beast is a beast; they have no Spirit. It is unknown how many lifetimes of blessings you cultivated to have gained intelligence like this."

"Moreover, for someone of your type, you are one in ten thousand, so for you to imagine enjoying the happiness of family life like a human is impossible."

"Yes, it is impossible. Immortal, you are human, and you are one who has obtained the good fortune of heaven and earth and received the pity of the heavens, so your Cultivation is very fast." Qianshou Xian sighed, "But for things like us, wanting to achieve human form requires immense good fortune."

"So sometimes, it is not that we want to harm people, but that humans cannot tolerate us. I saw this little girl was cute, so I felt a sense of compassion. I know I am not human and cannot take care of people, so I wanted to keep her by my side for a few years and then send her away."

"She can only live normally in the human world, but now, I cannot see that day."

"Granny, don't cry. Yinyin won't leave. Yinyin will be with you forever." The little girl was ignorant and did not know what had happened. Although Qianshou Xian's appearance was old and ugly, she was the only person who was good to her.

And now she vaguely felt that this only person who was good to her was leaving, so she was extremely reluctant to part.

Chen Yu sighed, then retracted his right hand, and the sword hanging in mid-air finally vanished. He said indifferently, "Forget it, I will let you go this time."

"Let me go?" Qianshou Xian had already prepared herself for certain death, but Chen Yu saying this took her by surprise.

"Yes, let you go. Although you did evil in the past, after coming out of the Underground Dark River, you can be considered to have turned over a new leaf. Also, remember, what saved you was this one act of kindness. If not for this little girl, you would not have escaped death today," Chen Yu said.

"Thank you, Immortal, thank you." Qianshou Xian's expression was agitated. She never imagined that an unintentional act of kindness would actually save her own life.

"Actually, whether human or monster, there is no inherent distinction between good and evil. The Lu Family are humans, but the things they did caused heaven's wrath and people's resentment; they are not even as good as you, a monster." Chen Yu waved his hand and said, "You go. I will take this little girl; it is not appropriate for her to be with you."

"Yes, Immortal." Qianshou Xian knelt on the ground respectfully.

"I don't want to, I don't want you, I want to be with Granny." Yinyin hugged Qianshou Xian tightly and would not let go.

"Be good, Yinyin. Go back with this uncle, and Granny will definitely come to see you," Qianshou Xian also said with reluctance.

"I won't, I don't want to leave..." Yinyin shook her head.

"How about this, you take her first and let her live with you for a few more days. It will be easier for me to find someone to arrange a good family for her." Chen Yu saw that the little girl was truly reluctant, so he said, "And you can also interact with that family as an ordinary person and see Yinyin often in the future."

"Good, good, thank you, Immortal, thank you so much." Qianshou Xian was overjoyed. She knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Chen Yu repeatedly, and then left with Yinyin.

The Lu Family was finished. Lu Ye looked at his own father, who had become a bloody skeleton, and he was completely stunned.

"Lu Ye, do you have anything else to say?" Chen Yu stared at Lu Ye. Of the three generations of the Lu Family, only this one person remained.

"Haha, my Lu Family is the best under heaven. With our ancestor sitting in command, who dares to touch our Lu Family? Ya ya ya." Suddenly, Lu Ye burst into a fit of wild laughter, then ran around the courtyard in a crazed state. He jumped and laughed, which actually left Chen Yu bewildered.

"This guy is crazy?" Chen Yu sent out his Divine Sense and then shouted sharply, "Lu Ye."

Lu Ye's body stiffened, but he did not stop and continued to run wildly in the courtyard. He laughed frantically while running, and Chen Yu also felt a trace of disorder from his consciousness.

He was truly crazy. Chen Yu shook his head helplessly; since he was crazy, then let him be.

The end of the Lu Family was incomparably miserable. From then on, the Xianyang Lu Family had completely disappeared. Moreover, there were many different opinions regarding the disappearance of the Lu Family; some said it was an enemy seeking revenge, and others said it was the ancestor worshipped by the Lu Family who was dissatisfied with them and ate the whole family.

Having resolved the Lu Family matter, Chen Yu turned and left. He had stayed in Xianyang for a few days, and after sending Lu Ruxue away, he took Yu Sichen and continued westward.

Xianyang had a long history and many places to visit. Chen Yu took Yu Sichen to relax properly. After shopping for a day, the two found a shopping mall to eat.

"Brother Chen, why does A Fu never eat?" While eating, Yu Sichen saw A Fu sitting to the side without moving. He would sniff things from time to time, but he would not take a single bite.

"He doesn't need to eat; just smelling it is enough," Chen Yu laughed.

"Why?" Yu Sichen was puzzled.

"Because..." Chen Yu thought for a moment and said, "He is not human."

"Ah?" Yu Sichen was startled and immediately took a few more looks at A Fu.

This A Fu had appeared suddenly, and he followed them almost everywhere except when eating or sleeping. She had thought he was a bodyguard, but she had not expected Chen Yu to answer like that.

She did not doubt Chen Yu's words in the slightest, because Chen Yu would not lie to her.

"Boss, I won't be a third wheel here. I'm going to go look around." A Fu stood up tactfully.

"Go ahead." Chen Yu gave a warning: "Don't hit on little girls, or you'll be sorry. You're an old ghost who has lived for hundreds of years, yet you're still so lecherous."

Indeed, A Fu now had no resistance to pretty young girls. Whenever he saw one, he could not help but hit on them. In the past two days, Chen Yu had already cleaned up his mess several times, but this guy just refused to change.

"Okay, okay, I know, Boss." A Fu gave a silly laugh and turned to leave.

But this guy still caused trouble. After receiving a call from the mall security, Chen Yu stood up, feeling both amused and annoyed: "Sichen, you eat first. That rascal caused trouble again; I'll be right over."

"Okay, Brother Chen, go ahead." Yu Sichen covered her mouth and giggled. She actually thought A Fu was quite interesting.

When Chen Yu rushed to the security office, he saw A Fu sitting to the side with an innocent look on his face, while a young man and woman were also there.

This pair should be a couple. The man was looking at A Fu with a face full of anger, while the woman had her hands clasped and was looking at A Fu with stars in her eyes.

As an old ghost who had lived for hundreds of years, A Fu was skilled at flirting with girls. In just a short while, he had already charmed the young girl.
