Chapter 5 — Mien Mien Tuyet Lac

I shook my head — No! No matter what, we can't leave him alone. No matter how strong Hong Du is, in the end he is still just a reindeer - how can he compete with someone like Ly Yem who is about to become a God and Demon? What's more... after many days of traveling together, Hong Du in my heart is no longer just a spirit beast. If I have to die, I would rather die with him than live alone and lose the person I love. Hong Du seemed to have seen through my thoughts and smiled slightly. That smile was so gentle, yet it made my heart feel bitter and bitter. He bowed his head and gently placed a kiss on my lips, as a final promise. "Be good, Mien Mien... Haven't you always been curious about my true identity?" “If you just leave here, very soon… there will be an answer.” My nose stung, tears almost fell. For some reason, I saw his smile at that time... carrying a hint of farewell. I know very well — if Hong Du really has the ability to fight to the death with Ly Yem, then my existence will only make him more entangled. Biting my lip, I wiped my tears, forcing myself to turn around and leave. But just as I turned around, a strange voice as if coming from Hell slowly rang out: "Senior sister... Do you really think... you can escape from this place?" I immediately turned my head around. Tong Khanh, his whole body seemed to be swallowed whole by demonic energy, stepping on layers upon layers of corpses, slowly walking out of the darkness of the cave. Her eyes were bloodshot, filled with resentment and madness. I frowned: "Tong Khanh, do you still know what you are doing?! You colluded with Ly Yem, killed fellow disciples, are you still worthy of being a member of the True Cultivation World?" Tong Khanh laughed, her voice twisted and distorted, as if she was no longer herself: "Why not? Isn't it all because you forced me?!" "I am little sister, someone who should be cherished and loved... But why? Why does everyone only see you?" "Why are you born so smart that you can make a contract with a fairy? Why is even Ly Yem - the divine bird Tat Phuong, willing to kneel under your skirt?" "I am the one who is willing to do everything for him, but he has never looked at me once! Tell me, why?!" "It's all your fault! You shouldn't exist in this world!" "But it's okay... I have power now! I only need one hand to crush someone like you!" “Le Tieu Mien, next year today... It will be your death anniversary!” After finishing speaking, she screamed, her eyes turned into a devil, rushing straight towards me! I immediately mobilized my spiritual energy to fight, and at the same time glanced at Hong Du - I discovered that he was still fighting with Ly Yem, but... not at all in a defeated position. I silently breathed a sigh of relief. But I also realized that because he was distracted protecting me, he couldn't use his full strength. Thinking of this, I gritted my teeth and immediately lured Tong Khanh back towards the exit gate of the secret realm. Just drag her out of the battlefield and Hong Du will no longer be bound. On the way to escape, many surviving monks were attracted by the battle between me and Tong Khanh and gathered together. As soon as they saw her demonic energy swirling and her eyes bloodshot, everyone understood that she had entered a demon and could not turn back, so they immediately rushed up to help. I hastily shouted: "Don't be eager to fight! Quickly withdraw from the secret world, who will survive?" If you miss me, run immediately!” After a chaotic battle, all the surviving disciples finally withdrew safely from the secret realm. At this point, I don't need to continue "acting out" with Tong Khanh anymore. Seizing the opportunity, I turned around, spiritual energy condensed on the tip of the sword, and one move went straight through her chest!

“Phew——!”

Tong Khanh's eyes widened, blood flowed from the corner of his lips, his bloodshot eyes were full of panic and unwillingness. “You… how could you… defeat me…?” I smiled coldly: "Just relying on you, you still want to kill me?" "I've been involved with you for so long, I'm just using your hand to cause a stir and lead other disciples to come." Her eyes immediately froze, she died without closing her eyes, collapsing to the ground like a pile of broken mud. I didn't bother to look back, stepped over her body, and strode out of the secret place. At that moment, as if there was a vague spiritual connection, Hong Du on the other side of the battlefield immediately changed. I saw his body flash and instantly transform into his true self - but it was no longer the familiar snow-white reindeer. He grew divine wings, his body took the shape of a lion with a dragon's tail, his whole body was covered with snow-white hair, each strand emitting dazzling divine light. Noble. Intense. Terrifying. Monks everywhere immediately shouted in surprise: "What is that?! Oh my god… what kind of magical beast is so beautiful!” “Spirit beast? Don't talk nonsense! That… that is the magical beast Bach Trach!” “Bach Trach?! Oh my God! The legendary beast Bach Trach, why did it appear here?!” Amidst the loud chatter, a sharp phoenix crow shook heaven and earth. Ly Yem has also transformed into her true self - the divine bird Tat Phuong, her whole body is as red as a flame, her aura is so blazing as if it wants to burn the whole sky! Two divine beasts - Bach Trach and Tat Phuong - appeared at the same time, causing heaven and earth to tremble, and the aura to riot continuously. Two giant figures, each as big as a mountain, collided, exploding heaven and earth, their magic power rushing like a tsunami. I held my breath, my eyes didn't blink once, just intently watching Bach Trach's figure in the sky - Hong Du... You're really not a reindeer... You're a god. Fortunately, a moment later, Ly Yem was finally defeated. The divine bird Tat Phuong was completely suppressed by the Bach Trach divine beast Hong Du. He could not even maintain his human form, and finally returned to his original form - only a dying white crane, barely alive on the ground. Without saying a word, Hong Du picked up his poisonous leg, dragged it out of the secret world, and then threw it hard on the ground like trash. After that, he hugged me tightly, burying his head in the crook of my neck as if he wanted to bury his soul in his breath. Ly Yem looked at that scene, her red eyes cracked open, screaming and begging: "Mien Mien! In your previous life you saved me, in this life you will definitely be able to do it too! Can you help me again…?” "You've seen it too, I'm really Tat Phuong, as long as you give me a chance... I will definitely marry you and make you the happiest person in the world!" “Mian Mien, believe me, I…” I looked at him - broken, bloody, pitiful, but couldn't help but laugh out loud. Laugh coldly. Hong Du lifted his foot, stomped hard on Ly Yeem's back, his laugh was like the snowy wind in the winter sky, full of coldness: "Don't dream anymore. The person she loves in this life is me. People who can give She is happy… Only me.” I frowned, about to open my mouth to ask something - Before I could say anything, Ly Yem suddenly struggled, used the last of her strength to flap her wings, and rushed straight towards me as if she wanted to salvage some hope for the last time. But I have long since lost my soft heart. A sword cut through the wind and slashed out, the sword's aura was as bright as a meteor. “Whoosh!” His head fell down, blood splattered all over the ground. The feud of the past life — Finally ended by my own hand. Returning to the sect, I recounted all of Tong Khanh's crimes, from demonization to colluding with Ly Yem to kill someone and steal the pill. Master just sighed softly, his eyes complicated: "Everything... is karma." Returning to the small yard, I hugged Hong Du's neck, leaned my head on his shoulder, my eyes sparkling and not forgiving: "Say it, say it quickly. What is the story of the past life? I don't believe you are just a simple Bach Trach!” He was silent for a long time, finally unable to overcome my stubbornness. Sighing, he said: "Okay, you forced me..." Then... From his mouth, the truth about his past life was revealed little by little. It turns out... Ly Yem's spirit pill was destroyed, he was seriously injured and lost his cultivation, all because of Hong Du's hand. The two had been at odds since they were in the God Realm, then when Hong Du went out, Ly Ye secretly killed all the servants in his palace. {Read full on page Nguyet Hoa Cac} When Hong Du returned, he saw the whole palace's blood flowing into a river, the fire of hatred choked his heart and he couldn't swallow it. He decided to fight to the death, a battle that caused Ly Yem to fall to the mortal world. And he, because he wanted to personally witness the scene of his enemy's downfall, also followed suit. Unexpectedly, the person who should have lived like a stray dog - was held in the palm of his hand by a girl who was considered a precious treasure.

“Actually, in my previous life... I was always by your side. Just… never appeared.” “I watched you and him enter into a contract, traveling everywhere for him, risking your life to rush into dangerous situations…” “How many times was I jealous in my heart — How could a good person like you be captured by that broken bird?” “If it were me, I would definitely cherish her and love her well.” “When he tore up the contract and let her suffer the betrayal, I stood there watching without any way to help.” “So I returned to the God Realm, spent all my effort to find the Samsara Mirror, just for everything to start again…” “I swore, in this life… I will always be by your side, not letting you fall in love with someone else.” As soon as the words ended, tears fell like rain. I used to think it was just a random rebirth, but I never knew it was a love so deep that it went against destiny. Fortunately - In this life, everything has been perfect. Hong Du sighed softly, gently kissed the tears at the corner of my eyes, his voice was low but warm: "Mien Mien, don't cry. From now on, I will always be by your side.” I nodded slightly, closed my eyelids, and proactively kissed his soft lips.
