That Day, the Spirit Ghost Became Pregnant

When Song Shuhang saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh.

He had already learned of the fate of the Jadewater Pavilion from Pavilion Master Chu, but when he saw the three thousand Demon Catchers rushing towards the Jadewater Pavilion, a sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart. He knew the ending, but was powerless to change it.

But Demon Catchers of Primordial Era really this ruthless? They didn't just target demons, they indiscriminately slaughtered even cultivators—could this be the reason why Demon Catchers suddenly disappeared later?

Just as Shuhang was deep in thought, Pavilion Master Chu's voice suddenly rang in Song Shuhang's ears. "Ah, let's skip this part. Because no matter how many times I see this memory, it makes me especially sad... Let's skip it."

As expected, Pavilion Master Chu intentionally guided him into this dream!

Then, Song Shuhang's screen went black.

Song Shuhang: "..."

With Pavilion Master Chu's interference, the sadness in his heart was completely transformed.

The screen lit up again, but the once prosperous Jadewater Pavilion was now a ruin, surrounded by blood, signs of battle, and traces of lightning.

In the dream, the severely injured Pavilion Master Chu knelt amidst the ruins, weeping bitterly.

At that time, the Pavilion Master Chu was overwhelmed with grief. Severely injured, she Chu Chu —and Tribulation Lightning continued to strike her from the sky.

It crashed down on Pavilion Master Chu with a thunderous roar.

She knelt in the ruins, motionless, letting the Tribulation Lightning strike her again and again.

The sight made Song Shuhang's heart clench.

At this moment, Pavilion Master Chu's voice rang in Song Shuhang's ears again. "I looked very beautiful back then, didn't I? I should say I had a particularly poignant beauty. If some men with certain tastes saw this scene, they would get excited, wouldn't they? A great beauty kneeling on the ground, crying as she is whipped by Heavenly Thunder, emitting painful groans."

Song Shuhang: "..."

Senior Chu, it would be better if you didn't explain.

"By the way, will you be excited to see this?" Pavilion Master Chu asked again.

Song Shuhang shouted, "Absolutely not!"

"It seems you lack the eye to appreciate 'beautiful things'," said Pavilion Master Chu.

Song Shuhang: "I'm not a pervert."

"What's wrong with being abnormal? You can't live without being crazy, and sometimes, it's the madmen who live better lives," Pavilion Master Chu sneered.

Song Shuhang: "Perverts and lunatics are two different species!"

The Pavilion Master Chu suddenly fell silent. Did she see madmen as perverts?

The next moment, Pavilion Master Chu decisively changed the subject. "Did you see the scene below? It's a pity. If I had broken through earlier back then, I might have been able to save the Jadewater Pavilion. At that time, the Tribulation Lightning I summoned all at once killed almost half of the enemies. I was prepared to die with them, so I deliberately attracted them to surround me before starting the tribulation all at once. The Tribulation Lightning rained down like rain, and those surrounding me were all reduced to ashes in an instant. Then, I chased after them for a long time, even enduring the Tribulation Lightning, and killed at least half of them."

Pavilion Master Chu was somewhat incoherent.

At this point, Pavilion Master Chu paused again, then said, "I never expected that I would actually succeed in overcoming the tribulation... Perhaps it would have been better if I had died then."

That Heavenly Tribulation lasted for a full ten days. At that time, she knelt in the ruins of the Jadewater Pavilion, being struck by Tribulation Lightning for ten days.

[Is Pavilion Master Chu hiding her own sorrow?] Song Shuhang was wondering whether he should comfort Pavilion Master Chu.

At this moment, Pavilion Master Chu said, "Let's show the scene of being struck by lightning again; it'll take many days. Next is what you're concerned about. After I successfully Tribulation Transcendence, I began searching the Jadewater Pavilion for any surviving companions."

What I'm concerned about, Senior Sister Ye?

In her dream, Pavilion Master Chu began searching through the Jadewater Pavilion, turning over ruins as she cried out and searched.

"This part of the story is also heartbreaking, let's skip it," said Pavilion Master Chu.

Song Shuhang: "..."

The screen went black again.

When the light returned, Chu Ge arrived at the edge of a dilapidated array.

There, Senior Sister Ye's body slumped to the edge of the great formation, half of her body petrified and then shattered into pieces.

There was no trace of life on her, not even a trace of a dead soul could be found—could the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning have destroyed any souls?

Song Shuhang's heart clenched.

Senior Sister Ye Si from back then, she's dead and her cultivation has vanished? Doesn't that mean she's completely finished?

"Haha, not bad expression. I just wanted to see your scared face," Pavilion Master Chu laughed.

Song Shuhang's eyes lit up. "Could it be that you, Pavilion Master, revived her?"

"No, she's completely dead. Her soul has vanished too. Even if I were Seventh-Grade Venerable back then, or even now, I couldn't bring her back to life after her body was petrified and her soul dissipated," Pavilion Master Chu replied.

Holy crap, my first love.

"Can't we try to save it again?" Song Shuhang asked.

"It's hopeless," said Pavilion Master Chu. "Don't worry, keep watching."

In the scene, when Pavilion Master Chu arrived beside Senior Sister Ye Si 'Ye Si body, a pale soul emerged from within her.

Senior Sister Ye is already dead, her soul has vanished, so what is this spirit?

Moreover, although this soul also has a female form, it doesn't resemble Senior Sister Ye at all.

"Spirit Ghost?" the Pavilion Master Chu in the scene said slowly.

Meanwhile, Song Shuhang heard Pavilion Master Chu's explanation. "That's Spirit Ghost... but it's not Ye Si's."

"If it's not Senior Sister Ye's Spirit Ghost, could it be... that she borrowed it from somewhere?" Song Shuhang subconsciously thought of his own Spirit Ghost that had been 'forcibly borrowed'.

"You know quite a lot, don't you? Well, you're also a lucky cultivator with Spirit Ghost." Pavilion Master Chu continued to explain, "Yes, this Spirit Ghost can be said to be 'borrowed.' It's Spirit Ghost passed down through generations of the Ye Si family. It's been passed down with the Ye Si family's bloodline for generations, and when it reached Ye Si, it was already the fifth generation. I don't know which powerful figure lent it to the Ye Si Family."

"Is the Senior Sister Ye Si I'm seeing now this Spirit Ghost?" Song Shuhang asked with a wry smile.

Was my first love a Spirit Ghost?

I don't know why, but my heart aches so much. Even Senior Sister Ye's departed soul is better than Spirit Ghost; at least her departed soul is Senior Sister Ye herself.

"Hehe, you yourself possess Spirit Ghost. The Spirit Ghost and its master are connected in consciousness, and in a sense, they are one mind and two bodies. Do you think the Spirit Ghost would play love games with you under such circumstances? It's hard to say whether the Spirit Ghost's true master is male or female," said Pavilion Master Chu.

That's true!

But if it wasn't this Spirit Ghost, then what was going on?

Just then, the Spirit Ghost in the dream suddenly changed.

The Spirit Ghost's belly grew as big as an inflating balloon.

"This?" Song Shuhang was stunned.

"Yes, that's exactly what you think." Pavilion Master Chu nodded calmly.

Spirit Ghost pregnant?

This was the first time Song Shuhang had ever heard of Spirit Ghost being able to get pregnant.

By this time, Song Shuhang had a vague idea of what might happen next. "Then, she's not going to give birth to Senior Sister Ye, is she?"

"Hmm, surprised, aren't you? When I saw that scene, I had absolutely no idea what to say," said Pavilion Master Chu.

In the dream, pure white lotus flowers appeared beneath the Spirit Ghost's feet, enveloping her body.

Then, she looked longingly at Pavilion Master Chu and reached out her hand to Pavilion Master Chu. A contract mark appeared on her hand—she needed Pavilion Master Chu to provide her with energy.

In the dream, Pavilion Master Chu reached out without hesitation and made a pact with the Spirit Ghost.

It's not a 'Spirit Ghost Contract', because this Spirit Ghost already has an owner.

This is merely a contract that provides spiritual power to the Spirit Ghost — the Spirit Ghost's master, it seems, is unable to provide her with energy due to some kind of limitation.

Perhaps this is why she has always been 'lent' to the Ye Si Family?

Regardless of the circumstances, because of Ye Si, the then- Pavilion Master Chu signed a contract with the Spirit Ghost to provide energy without hesitation.

The runes of the contract settled into the Heart Aperture of Pavilion Master Chu.

The Spirit Ghost received energy from Pavilion Master Chu, and a giant lotus flower enveloped her entirely.

Pure white lotus flowers float on the ruins of the Jadewater Pavilion, a beauty tinged with cruelty.

After a very long time.

The giant lotus flower opened, revealing another figure besides the Spirit Ghost inside.

It was Senior Sister Ye Si.

Not an infant, but a complete, newborn Senior Sister Ye Si —within this body, there is also a complete soul belonging to Senior Sister Ye Si.

Ye Si's vanished soul was preserved by this strange Spirit Ghost, and then, a new Ye Si was born.

This is Senior Sister Ye now.

No wonder, when Senior Sister Ye loses control of her emotions, she feels so light that she can't even feel her weight.

In the dream, after the magical Spirit Ghost gave birth to Ye Si, it got up and bid farewell to Pavilion Master Chu.

The next moment, she was lifted into the air.

In mid-air, she donned a Daoist robe, and a Daoist crown was tied crookedly on her head. And so, the Spirit Ghost flew higher and higher, disappearing from Pavilion Master Chu's sight.

In the dream, Pavilion Master Chu held the newborn Ye Si and wept bitterly once again.

Ye Si, born from the conception of Spirit Ghost, is said to be human, but is closer to Spirit Ghost.

But calling her Spirit Ghost seems a bit inaccurate, because there is still a complete soul within her body.

"This is Ye Si," Pavilion Master Chu said calmly. "The reborn Ye Si has been in a coma for ten years. During these ten years, I used Real Illusion to restore everything in the Jadewater Pavilion."

"Ye Si, who later awakened, possessed the exact same memories as before—except for the memory of the destruction of 'Jadewater Pavilion'."

The memory of the destruction of the Jadewater Pavilion seems to have been deliberately erased by that Spirit Ghost... or perhaps, inherited and taken away by that Spirit Ghost.

Song Shuhang: "..."

My first love wasn't Spirit Ghost, that's wonderful.

But my first love was born of Spirit Ghost. What should I do?

"It's a pity, you've already formed a contract with a Spirit Ghost. Your Spirit Ghost is already showing signs of evolving into High-Rank Spirit Ghost. Otherwise, I would have liked to have you sign Spirit Ghost Contract with Ye Si," said Pavilion Master Chu indifferently.

Senior Sister Ye can be contracted like Spirit Ghost? Song Shuhang panicked.
