Seven Unfortunate Lifetimes (Love You Seven Times)

Chapter 31

Chu Kong pushed my hand away and gloomily said, “Do you want to be beaten?”

I ignored him. I felt like he wouldn’t use his hands against me right now.

The girl heard my promise. She stayed at the table for a while. Then, she floated excitedly over to me, repeating her thanks all the way along. But before she could reach my side, she stopped three steps away and said, “Your...your body has a bad smell.”

I was surprised, raised my hand, and sniffed. Chu Kong used this body to train together with the soldiers. It was tainted with men’s blood and sweat. But when we fell into the river, most of it had been washed away. At this point, there was really no smell on this body. I stared at the woman.

“There’s no smell, ah.”

“There is...” the girl said. “You have to be careful...”

She seemed to have remembered something and was about to speak, but no sound came out of her mouth. Instead, she clutched her head and squatted on the ground. It seemed very painful.

I was scared seeing her like that and was about to go to her, but Chu Kong pulled me behind him.

“Do you think you’re still an immortal? If a soul enters that body of yours, you could easily die.”

I was silent, though I earnestly listened and remained behind him.

That woman squatted for a while and then slowly stood up. With a weak voice, she said, “Excuse me...what was I about to say? I forgot again.”

I didn’t dare to let her remember anymore and said, “It’s alright if you can’t remember.”

The woman looked at me apologetically.

“Thank you for being willing to help me. I’m really sorry for frightening you before. Now I’ll send you out.”

Her body floated to the right side of the stone room, but she didn’t stop at the wall. Instead, half of her went right through it. She turned and beckoned to us. “Come.”

My mouth twitched. “Lady, we’re mortals. We don’t have the ability to walk through walls.”

Laughing, she said, “This is not a wall. Come and try it if you don’t believe me.”

Chu Kong went first while I was still stupidly standing there. Then he turned around, looked at me, and raised an eyebrow.

“Do you still want to stay here for a while? Seeing his things, thinking about that person?”

Inwardly, I really wondered why this guy was getting so angry...

Chu Kong was impatient and grabbed my hand. He dragged me to the wall the woman disappeared into. Chu Kong also went through, pulling me along. We crossed it easily.

We ended up in another cave. The woman was waiting for us by a cliff, and when she saw us arrive, she murmured, “Follow this cave and you will reach the exit.”

Her figure flashed and then disappeared into thin air. Only her lingering voice could be heard: “If you see Zihui, you must tell him that a Luo is still waiting for him. I...just remember this. Thank you.”

The sound drifted away. I turned and touched the wall that was blocking us just now. I put my hand through.

Surprised, I asked, “Illusion?”

A damaged soul that could create an illusion! This knowledge surprised me a lot. If this woman hadn’t been a god, then she must’ve been a demon who created great messes in the world.
