Chapter 50 - Rua!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle..
The corpses, under the scorching of the flas, emitted an indescribable odor.
Luo He, still within Su Huanhuan's body, dispersed the spiritual energy that constituted the Autumn Maiden Sword's body and looked at this slender jade hand, falling into deep thought.
It wasn't anything else he was thinking about, but rather his surprise at being able to adapt to a new body so quickly...
It really was quite handy to use, Su Huanhuan's body.
Even because her height was short enough, so moves that originally required slightly lowering his stance to dodge could now be disregarded.
Indeed, for a swordsman, being a bit shorter was actually a good thing...
"Hey, how much longer do you plan to stay in my body?"
Su Huanhuan's own voice sounded from within his mind.
After Luo He took over her body, her own soul had been squeezed by Luo He into the spiritual platform, staying together with that black lotus flower.
Looking inward at himself, Luo He could see a small, human-shaped Su Huanhuan floating before him, tapping at his field of vision.
"Don't be hasty, let look a bit more."
"What's there to look at!"
"Mmm..."
Unable to figure out the reason for a while, Luo He could only temporarily attribute it to his and Su Huanhuan's exceptionally good compatibility.
"However, you really are quite formidable. Clearly using a woman's body, yet it hasn't affected your performance at all."
"I actually feel it's not much different from before."
"...What do you an by that?"
Luo He looked down, mm, and saw the tips of his shoes.
Clearly, she had misunderstood his aning.
However, Luo He wouldn't specifically explain this either.
He collected his mind and exited Su Huanhuan's body.
Su Huanhuan's expression was dazed for a mont, then imdiately returned to clarity.
At this mont, twilight had already fallen; the entire bamboo forest was suffused with the sll of blood and a scorching aura.
Luo He didn't much like this sll appearing in the bamboo forest.
But he currently lacked the ability to dispose of the corpses.
So, he looked eagerly at Su Huanhuan, who was currently collecting sothing from those people's bodies.
"I'm dealing with the imprints on these people, to prevent them from finding again imdiately... Why are you looking at like that?"
"Help dispose of the corpses."
"Can't you just throw them in the river?"
"No."
That was a river that could beco my mother.
"...How co I never realized before that you were such a troubleso person."
Su Huanhuan sighed, took out a small bottle from her person, and poured its contents onto these corpses.
"Alright, alright, in a little while these people will beco fertilizer for this place. Satisfied now?"
"Mm.”
Luo He nodded his head.
"You stay here for now and don't move. I'm going over there for a bit and will be right back."
Su Huanhuan watched Luo He walk towards the other side of the bamboo forest, recalling their conversation just now... she suddenly felt like laughing.
A situation she had thought was a narrow escape from death had suddenly vanished.
A person she had thought was already dead had suddenly appeared before her just like that.
Behaving as if they had only not seen each other for two days.
She savored Luo He's face and voice in her mind, squatted on the ground, and, tilting her head, smilingly watched Luo He's departing figure.
That should be his real appearance and voice, right? Truly an extraordinary male fox...
Ah.
Su Huanhuan suddenly rembered a very important matter.
Gu Jing was also in this city.
Damn it, what kind of coincidence was this?!
...
And Luo He, having walked to the side, naturally also had things to do.
During the battle just now, he had sensed that soone else had snuck in here, and it was soone he had t once before.
As for why he wanted to avoid Su Huanhuan, it wasn't for any complicated reason.
Out of consideration for her own safety, she would definitely hope that the fewer people who knew her whereabouts, the better.
It wasn't impossible that she might want to conveniently finish off this overly curious naive young fellow.
Luo He didn't doubt Su Huanhuan would entertain this thought; it was just that she probably wouldn't show it in front of him.
Therefore, he could only send this little unlucky fellow away himself.
He walked to a place where the bamboo forest was dense; he clearly heard the sound of soone holding their breath.
Luo He couldn't be bothered to play any hide-and-seek either. His body passed directly through the bamboos, and with a muffled cry of surprise, he pulled out this young girl.
It was precisely the bamboo-shoot-gathering young girl he had encountered a few days ago when he ca out of the mountains.
At this mont, her eyes and trembling limbs were filled with terror.
"Don't, don't... Don't kill ..."
Liu Miao's teeth were chattering; she hugged her limbs and curled up on the ground, pleading for rcy in a faint voice.
Just now, she had seen it very clearly: this ghost had possessed that woman's body, and then, swish swish, slash slash, had cut down that whole group of seemingly formidable people.
If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have craved that bite. Incited by that gang of little wenches at the flower shop, she had again wanted to get so winter bamboo shoots to braise with at... thinking that anyway, the last ti she encountered this ghost, it hadn't done anything to her.
Now look, today she had stumbled upon the scene of a fierce ghost murdering people.
Liu Miao, you idiot, are you a panda* or sothing...
[N: Implying she's rare for being so unlucky or foolish to be in this situation repeatedly, or perhaps a reference to pandas being clumsy.]
Looking at the young girl before him, trembling like sifting chaff, Luo He tilted his head. He figured she wouldn't be able to go back on her own for a while and needed so comforting.
So Luo He squatted down and looked at her.
"Don't be afraid, I'm a good ghost."
"......”
The young girl timidly opened her eyes, her throat moved a little, and then she tentatively said:
"But, but you just killed people, ah..."
"......"
This silly girl, couldn't she just follow my words, comfort herself a little, and then quickly leave? What's the aning of contradicting ?
"You're right, I was just lying to you. I'm a bad ghost, and now I'm going to kill you and suck out your soul."
"No, don't, I beg you..."
"Today's matter, you'd best not speak of it to anyone. Although I won't kill you, that elder sister over there is a bad woman."
"If it were her instead, you'd probably lose your little life imdiately, understand?"
"Oh, oh..."
After Luo He spoke a couple of sentences in a kind and patient manner, Liu Miao cald down slightly and nodded as if half-understanding.
"Is that an elder sister? She looks even younger than ..."
"If you have the guts, you can say it to her face."
"I don't want to..."
Liu Miao gradually climbed up from the ground and looked at this seemingly easy-to-talk-to male ghost before her.
"......"
"...?"
Luo He habitually tilted his head and looked at her.
And then Liu Miao looked until her own face turned red.
Pah, pah...
She inwardly despised herself for still having such wild thoughts at a ti like this.
Although those formidable cultivators dressed in black, whose moves were also incredibly sinister, didn't seem like good people either, Liu Miao, for the ti being, still understood the principle that soone who kills bad people isn't necessarily a good person.
"You, you said that elder sister is a bad woman, but, you were the one who killed people just now, ah..."
"Rua!"*
[N: "rua" is an onomatopoeia, often used in online contexts, representing a sound of affection (like nuzzling, rubbing, or petting, similar to a cat's purr or gentle kneading), or sotis playful aggression or teasing. It's a very modern, informal sound effect.]
"Wuaah!!"
This scatterbrained young girl was finally willing to pick up her legs and run.
Watching the young girl's fleeing figure, Luo He then pulled two bamboo shoots from the ground and accurately tossed them into her back basket.
Liu Miao felt a weight on her back but didn't have ti to think carefully about the situation and continued to run towards Xianfeng City without looking back.
Although their interaction was very short, Luo He thought this girl was quite cute.
A reward.
Luo He satisfactorily clapped his non-corporeal hands and gradually walked back.
Over there, Su Huanhuan, who had been seizing the ti to recover her state, opened her eyes and watched this ghostly figure erge from the darkness of the night.
"Hello, little mute who died and died again, welco back."
She sat on the ground clutching her chest, bean-sized beads of sweat dripping from her forehead, clearly enduring sothing.
She forcibly took a deep breath to suppress the pain and smiled at Luo He:
"I think, tonight, we will both have many stories to share, right?”
