Chapter 5 — Thanh Bich – Meeting Once in a Hundred Years

The 10 billion sisters have shown their true form, only a demon snake that has lost all its cultivation, but still tries its best to crawl towards the rainbow, hoping to fly up. But her spiritual energy was exhausted. Suddenly, she turned around and madly rushed towards me, her eyes blazing with resentment. Phap Hue immediately controlled her and did not let her hurt me. The older sister screamed as if her throat was tearing: "Phap Hue! What are you doing? Let me go! I have to kill that vile demon! It's him! It's him who made me unable to become an immortal!" I took a few steps forward, my voice calm: "I hurt you so you don't become an immortal? So I ask you, where did I hurt you?" Sister saw me approaching, opened her mouth to bite me with poison - I immediately moved aside. I said coldly: "At this hour, you're still thinking about biting me? You no longer have spiritual power, becoming an immortal is already impossible. What's the use of biting me?" The sister hissed, frantically: "Thanh Bich! I won't let you go! Even if you become a ghost... I won't let you go!" I looked at her and said softly: "Okay, if you really want to be a ghost, then let me send you the last part of the way." I raised my hand to kill her — but Phap Hue was staring at me. That look — cold, stern. It's like if I make a move, he won't hesitate to kill me. Phap Hue is still the same - only knows how to destroy monsters with killing thoughts. I lightly waved the demon blade in my hand, just wanting to... test to see how he would react. If I really kill Bach Chi — will he kill me? The demon sword fell, rolling towards the rainbow. At that moment - Long Than transmitted his voice and decreed: "The predestined relationship has not ended, the cause and effect has not been completed, Thanh Bich, I see that you still have an unfulfilled predestined destiny. I give you the opportunity to ascend, make you a Black Mountain God, and ascend to the position of High Immortal. Do you... wish to step onto the rainbow?" I stopped. In my previous life, before I could enjoy the life of a fairy, my sister used the secret Black Mountain method to kill me. Unexpectedly... the previous life's destiny still follows me until this life. Hearing that, the older sister was so angry that she swung the snake's tail and banged it on the ground, screaming: "Based on what?! It's clear that I have done so many good deeds! I opened a medical shop and saved people for free! Why is it that in the end, it is he who becomes a fairy?!" No one responded to her. Ascending to become an immortal, Black Mountain God - those things were once the dream I longed for all my life. But now... I am no longer the snake demon of the past, I only want to steal the true hearts of others. Now, I hesitate. In this mortal world... there are still people we are attached to. I raised my head to look at the rainbow, its bright light shining — but I no longer had the courage to step forward. I want to... stay on earth, stay with Phap Hue. 11 I turned my head to look at Phap Hue, thinking... he wouldn't understand the hidden meanings in my eyes. Yet... just facing each other for a moment, he walked towards me. Phap Hue's eyes were red, his voice trembling slightly: "Thanh Bich... even if you don't choose me, I'm still willing to protect you so you can ascend." I immediately objected: "It's not like that! It's not what you think, Phap Hue! I never didn't want to choose you!" I reached out my hand to wipe away the tears rolling down his face, my heart felt like it was pricking with needles - it hurt so much that it was hard to breathe. Phap Hue pursed her lips and said angrily: "That day... you didn't choose me like in your previous life. You let me be led away by Bach Chi. Isn't that like you abandoned me?" I was stunned. It turns out... not only I was reincarnated, Phap Hue was also resurrected! The fact that he didn't say a word and secretly helped his sister - could it be because he misunderstood me? Is it because of resentment? But… if so, does he still have me in his heart? I opened my mouth to explain, but for a moment... I didn't know where to start. I did not step onto the fairy bridge, not because of hesitation - but... I am no longer the snake demon of the past who only knew how to desire other people's hearts. I miss Phap Hue. Phap Hue saw that I was silent and didn't say a word, so he gently pushed me towards the rainbow. "Thanh Bich... you and I, lovers on different paths. You becoming an immortal... is a destiny that cannot be reversed. Humans and immortals... are even more fruitless relationships. We... in the end are still fateless." He gently pushed me to the edge of the fairy bridge. If I just lifted my foot one step, I could step onto the flying path - but I couldn't do it. I can't bear it. I can't bear to leave Phap Hue, Nor can I bear to leave this world - a place that holds so many beautiful memories. At first, I just wanted a human heart — to help me transform. I never really wanted to become a fairy. But later... because of Phap Hue, because of the days accompanying him... I gradually became attached to that feeling - Becoming a fairy, but not because of glory, but because he led me step by step closer to the light. But in this life... things are different. I have a heart, I have feelings. I no longer have the desire to eat people's hearts like before, nor do I have the ambition to become a fairy anymore. Phap Hue saw that I was still standing still without taking a step, intending to force me to go to Tien Kieu. At that moment, Hua Xuyen pulled out his peach wooden sword and blocked it in front of Phap Hue, shouting loudly: "Let Thanh Bich go! She doesn't want to go!" Phap Hue frowned and objected: "Your peach sword can only kill demons, not harm people. Pointing at me, what's the use?" Hua Xuyen was stunned, not knowing how to respond, only seeing a bitter expression mixed with disappointment. He turned to look at me, his voice hoarse: "Thanh Bich... don't go. I... I will give my true heart to you... as long as you stay." I was bewildered, speechless. Two lines of tears silently rolled down Hua Xuyen's cheeks. He stammered: "I... I willingly offer my true heart. I truly..." In the sky, the fairy rainbow became increasingly pale, and the light where the Dragon God resided also gradually dimmed. The rainbow is about to disappear. Phap Hue frantically said: "Thanh Bich! Quickly step up! You have practiced for thousands of years, and will be reborn again to have a chance to become an immortal! This may be the only chance in your life!" But I — still didn't move. So, Phap Hue gritted his teeth and once again pushed me to the fairyland. It was windy, three heavenly thunderbolts arrived as promised - tearing apart the sky, thundering down. This time, I have enough for thousands of years of virtue - gritting my teeth to overcome all three heavenly tribulations. The clouds above were bright with golden light, lasting endlessly. Then, the clouds dispersed, it rained heavily, and in the middle of the rain, a brilliant seven-color rainbow crossed the sky. As for the snake demon in the human world — Thanh Bich... Soon he was nowhere to be found. 12. Time passes quickly, time moves like a shuttle. In the blink of an eye, the big day that many people have been waiting for has come - the golden exam strike. In a crowded sea of people, Hua Xuyen stood in the middle of the crowd, feeling both nervous and full of anticipation. Finally, he also found that familiar name — it was his name. From now on, he is no longer someone who only knows how to destroy demons. But he is a mandarin, taking care of the people for the world. What year was the peach wooden sword — he buried it in the ground. Forever no more killing love because of hate. Hua Xuyen wore a bright red dress, walking in the middle of the street with bright flower lights, filled with joyful laughter. In that joyful atmosphere, he suddenly remembered that blue figure. Now that person has ascended to become a fairy, perhaps... the snake's tail is long gone. Now no one uses their tail to hit him, no one scolds him for being a "rotten scholar", and no one calls him "stupid". While his memory was hazy, he suddenly saw a familiar figure passing through the crowd. He quickly chased after him - but that person was a cloth-clothed Taoist priest with a long sword at his waist. 13. Phap Hue, still in the human world to eliminate demons and save the world. As always, he did not care about hardship, quietly eliminating every disaster in the mortal world. The day I stepped onto the fairy bridge, he walked alone toward Hac Son. Hac Son - where evil energy is rolling, is a dangerous land, where the old demon Black Son used to rage, with countless little demons under his command. Phap Hue entered alone, fought fiercely, and destroyed all remaining demons. He is always like that - quiet, thoughtful, always thinking one step ahead of us in everything. I'm lazy and afraid of trouble. And he is always willing to shoulder everything for me. During three years in Hac Son, he not only eliminated demons but also did many good deeds. The first year, he built a thatched hut. The second year, build a shelter from the wind and rain. In the third year, he picked up dozens of abandoned children, raised them, taught them Dharma, and gave them a warm home. The reputation of "Fhap Hue to eliminate love" spread far and wide, attracting many people with ambition to come and worship the master. He accepted a few disciples and passed on all his knowledge, hoping that one day they would protect the human world for him. Later, he rebuilt Hac Son and named that place: "Thanh Bich Cu." When the disciples heard the name, they were confused. Someone asked curiously: "Master, this name doesn't sound majestic at all. How can it suppress demons?" Phap Hue just smiled and did not answer. In his heart, he secretly thought: "If the fairy Thanh Bich ever passes by this place, maybe she will remember that name... then come back... look at me once."
