Translator: Cash

Shortly after, it seemed like Wu Jiuge has realised something and turned to Xiao Yu, “Sorry, I can’t return this person to you this time.”

Xiao Yu was mad, but also surprised. She never heard Wu JiuGe called anyone “human” before but always used “product” instead. After all, this is a market for trading ghosts and goblins. Some demented Taoist monks were willing to use ordinary people to attract demons, so usually the goblins that are easily captured will be sent here for inspection.

But Xiao Yu will not argue with Wu Jiuge, because his strength and identity are unknown to her. Some demon said that he is an ordinary human, so secretly they wanted to fight against the Wu Jiuge. However, nobody had ever seen him since then. Thinking of it, how can someone who bring benefits to the goblins are just a normal person. But he did not have a demon aura, which means he is not demon. What would he be?

“Can you tell me the reason?” Xiao Yu did not like other goblins who would fight till the end and thought that if they capture someone and they must belongs to them. It’s the law of the jungle. She wouldn’t bother to get involved with Wu Jiuge, but she wants to know the reason. After all, this was really a very attractive prey.

Wu JiuGe raised his head indifferently and said unhesitatingly, “Because he is the person I want, I can’t give him to you.”

Xiao Yu didn’t know that Wu Jiuge was waiting for someone. When she heard that, she guessed that he might be a living dead. After all, there were so many many women not willing to reincarnate because of love. Wu Jiuge was no different than any of them. However, she didn’t expect that she had a chance to capture a prey that seemed so good this time, but yet she had to give him away.

Xiao Yu spread her arms, “Alright, alright. I will let him go, but I can’t just leave empty-handed. The Thunder Doom of Nai Fu is coming soon, I think…”

Before she even finished her sentence, two bottles were thrown over to her. There were two small bottles of pills. One was red and the other was blue. “The red ones can help her absorb some of the power from the Thunder Doom. One pill for each doom. Eat it before the doom starts. Eat the blue one after the doom, it will help to regain some strength and mana. It’s also one pill for each doom. Don’t take any more.”

Xiao Yu happily put away the two bottles of pills, then said goodbye to Wu Jiuge, “Thank you, then I’ll leave you alone. We’ll leave now.”

Wu Jiuge waved his hands, the iron door opened. Xiao Yu carried the white rabbit Nai Fu and left.

The young man on the ground suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Wu Jiuge. His eyes are so charming, purple as violets.  In a moment, he suddenly smiled. He looked at Wu Jiuge’s face the face and asked softly, “Girly man?” ”

It seemed like Wu Jiuge did not expect that the boy would say that or he was surprised that he would be called out. Wu Jiuge’s pupils narrowed, he then walked behind the curtain, Xia Mingyu sat up, crossed his legs and looked around this place.

After Wu Jiuge changed his clothes, he came out.  Xia Mingyu’s had a different facial expression, he stared at Wu Jiuge warily with his amber cat-like eyes and seemed like he was ready to fight back.

Wu Jiuge changed his outfit to a traditional chinese male costume. He is all dressed in white like jade, and his body looked longer than before which seemed like his bones were extended.

“Who are you?” Xia Mingyu knew that the condition of his body would attracted demons and monsters, so he was very vigilant. He pulled out the Moon Tang Knife and pointed at Wu Jiuge, “Back off! I won’t be easy on you.”

Even saying so, his hands were trembling. He never killed anyone with a knife or even fight with anyone before. To be honest, he was scared and afraid that he would lose…

Wu Jiuge’s looked at the Night Pearl on Xia Mingyu’s wrist and narrowed his eyes. And then he said, “You don’t have to be afraid of me, I’m not a demon. And I’m the only person you can trust in this world.”

What does he mean? Is this person sick… “Why should I trust you? Back off! Didn’t you hear me?” Wu Jiuge advanced on the boy, and he stepped back and leaned against the wall in the end. He didn’t dare to make any move. He didn’t know if Wu Jiuge is a human or a demon, he didn’t want to be reckless.

Wu JiuGe fend off the knife and walked closer to Xia Mingyu. And instantly blocked the the boy with a condescending attitude. “I already toled you, you can only trust me. You are the child of the spirit of heaven, and I am your soul keeper.”

He didn’t understand what Wu Jiuge was saying, but subconsciously he felt like a voice in his mind was saying “Trust him”. Xia Mingyu lowered his head anxiously, “I don’t understand what you’re saying. Where is this place?”

“Kulle, Xinjiang.” Wu Jiuge still maintained the same position,and looked at Xia Mingyu. His face looked like a pool of stagnant water with no ripples. Even though it didn’t make him feel hostile, it was still unsettling.

Xia Mingyu’s pupils immediately narrowed. He couldn’t understand why he had only fainted for a while, and then he went from Luoyang to Kulla in Xinjiang. Also, the poison in his body.. Xia Mingyu went warily checked his hand, and he found that the bruise were gone. It seemed like somebody helped him after he passed out…

“Why am I here?” He raised his head to ask Wu Jiuge. Wu Jiuge replied directly, “Two demons sent you over for inspection. I kept you here. As I said, you can only trust me because I will protect you.”

Zhao Yun also said the same thing. Thinking of Zhao Yun, Xia Mingyu got a little more relaxed, and dropped his guard. “Then who are you?”

“A soul keeper, Wu Jiuge.”

“And I can trust you?” The boy asked. Wu Jiuge nodded. Xia Mingyu then asked, “Then can you send me back to Luoyang? My friends are still there, and I…”

His voice suddenly stopped. Xia Mingyu stared at Wu Jiugeng, who just leaned down and kissed his forehead. Xia Mingyu was completely frozen. A bright light flashed in Wu Jiugeng’s indifferent eyes as if a pact was made. “Yes, master. Wu Jiuge is willing to obey your orders.”

What just happened?

He could still felt the warmth left on his forehead. Xia Mingyu was immediately blushing. He held his forehead and froze,. Wu Jiuge suddenly reached out to lift his jaw. The expression on his face was still indifferent: “Master, have you been marked by someone?”

Mark? What mark? He looked at Wu Jiuge with blank stares. Wu Jiuge explained, “It’s a Blood Pact. And the smell of the other side were still there. It’s the immortals. My lord, when did it happen?”

The blood pact, Xia Mingyu knew about this. He remembered Mu Feng had explained to him it was to save him. He suddenly felt that was unfair to Zhao Yun. The blood pact bonded the people together. Because his capacity was low, which dragged Zhao Yun’s capacity down. It was very unfair to Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun was not obliged to save him after all.

“Is there a problem? This has nothing to do with you.” Xia Mingyu put the Moon Tang Knife between them, he thought it’s better to keep a distance from Wu Jiuge. He’s a Man. A Man! This demon kissed him! God!

Wu Jiuge reached out to covered his hand on the hand that Xia Mingyu was holding his knife with. He pressed down the Moon Tang Knife, and the hand that clamped Xia Mingyu’s lower jaw slightly forced forward. “Master, the blood contact is not a joke. Since you are bonded with a demon, then it is not worthy, I will end the blood pact for master.”

Wu JiuGe bent down. Xia Mingyu was shocked and covered his mouth with his spare hand in a rash. Wu JiuGe’s lips was right above the back of his hand. A warm feeling appeared, his body felt much warmer.

“Wait a minute, you… What do you mean? End the blood pact?” Xia Mingyu still wanted to back up, but there was against wall already and he couldn’t move anymore. He could only lower his body and tried to stay away from Wu Jiuge as much as he could.

Wu Jiuge was like an operating machine. Xia Mingyu asked, and then he explained. “Of course, the blood pact was not meant to be ended. But I am your soul keeper, I am the most compatible existence with my master. As long as I make a blood pact with master again, the previous blood pact will end. Naturally, the one who bonded with master before will disappear in this world.”

Xia Mingyu did not fully understand Wu Jiuge’s words, but he understood that if Wu Jiuge end the blood pact, Zhao Yun would die, so he wouldn’t do it.

“Then I make a blood blood pact with you.” Xia Mingyu said without hesitation. Wu Jiuge got closer again, and his thin lips almost kissed on the back of his Xia Mingyu hand. “Why?”

The back of his hand felt very itchy, Xia Mingyu felt like a cooked lobster, and then he curl up his body. His body completely fell on the ground. Wu Jiuge lay down and covered Xia Mingyu under him.

“Because… The person who made the blood pact with me is my friend.” Xia Mingyu said. Wu Jiuge stared at him, which made him very uncomfortable. As if he could be seen through in Wu Jiuge’s eyes, nothing could be hide from him.

“Friend?” Wu Jiuge said indifferently, “The child of the spirit of heaven does not need any friend. That will only harm you. Moreover, a friend would never made a blood pact with master. Master, tha person can not be trusted.”

The thin lips above his hand was so closed. The Moon Tang Knife had already fallen to the other side, and there was nothing to protect him. The hand that he used to cover his mouth was forcibly put away. Xia Mingyu struggled, but Wu JiuGe was able to restrain him easily, which made him unreconciled.

“Let go of me! I said I don’t want it! Why are you making decisions for me?” Everyone was like this, nobody had ever considering his opinions. They always just did whatever they wanted to do, and he hated that. So that’s the reason why he must get stronger enough to not to be controlled by anyone anymore.

A red heart mark suddenly appeared between his eyebrows. A rosy purple colour gradually appeared in his amber cat-like pupils. Wu Jiuge stopped and slowly got up, “Understood. Master, I overstepped.”

The purple colour suddenly disappeared like ebbing tides. Xia Mingyu’s eyes got bright and watery. “You…”

He didn’t expect that Wu JiuGe would listen to him. He was surprised but alarmed at the same time. Suddenly, Wu JiuGe dropped another kiss on his forehead. And the indifferent expression on his face had never changed. “You are my master, I will obey your orders. Since master does not want to end it, then I won’t end it. I will still protect you.”

“Why… are you doing this?”

“Because I am the soul keeper, the soul keeper naturally wants to protect the child of the spirit of heaven. It is my duty.”

It turns out that it was because of responsibility… then what did Zhao Yun want? Why was him so good to me…
