Chapter 209
The first life came to an abrupt end.
The little fox thought that was the conclusion.
Little did it know that this was just the beginning.
【Second Life】
【Third Life】
【Fourth Life】
…….
In every life, Jiang Chen would appear beneath the Enlightenment Tree in the Hengduan Mountain Range, saying they were destined.
In every life, Jiang Chen would find it in the Upper Domain and then save it from the heavenly thunder with that ancient yellow bell.
Likewise, it would fall into difficult choices in every life, thus influenced by the Heavenly Dao, splitting into another personality.【Ninth Life】
In this life, the little fox could clearly sense the loss and exhaustion in Jiang Chen’s eyes.
But this life, too, had no change.
Even though he was weary, even though he had completely despaired, Jiang Chen still found it in the Hengduan Mountain Range.
Only this time, Jiang Chen did not protect it until it broke through to become a Demon King but left early.
The ending was no different.
Even though Jiang Chen racked his brains, trying every means to change everything… as long as the man and the fox met, they were doomed to a fate of mutual destruction.
Once again, watching Jiang Chen being pierced by the black blade, the little fox’s psychological defenses were completely shattered.
Jiang Chen said that a lifetime is too long…
Jiang Chen kept his promise but also broke his word.
Because…
“You said a lifetime was too long, so why did you protect me for nine lifetimes?”
Watching Jiang Chen’s body being burned yet once again, the little fox shouted in question.
After speaking, ghostly fire burst forth from between its brows, shooting straight into the sky like a pillar.
It wanted to burn the heavens with the ghostly fire.
But alas, its cultivation was limited, and it was not skilled in controlling the ghostly fire.
Soon, the ghostly fire bloomed like a flower and then dispersed, vanishing without a trace.
This made the little fox once again experience its own powerlessness.
Overwhelmed with intense guilt and sorrow, it stood in a daze for a long time.
When it came back to its senses, its once lively fox eyes were now filled with towering rage.
【Tenth Life】
Watching Jiang Chen bully his fellow disciples and tease the Junior Sister, the little fox finally understood.
It turns out Jiang Chen had given up completely in this life.
He was no longer kind, no longer sincere, only wanting to live freely as a thorough villain.
So the Jiang Chen it smelled was foul…
The little fox was happy.
Because Jiang Chen’s nine lifetimes of kindness were met with misunderstanding and blame from everyone.
In this life, he deserved to live unrestrained.
No one, nothing, should bring him back into the nightmares of the past.
…….
Nine cycles of reincarnation came to an abrupt end.
The little fox suddenly woke up in surprise.
The roar of battle still echoed in its ears, leaving it somewhat dazed, as if a thousand years had passed, yet by the measure of time, only moments had gone by.
The tremendous noise of the fight had scared away the birds and beasts, and the cultivators had fled in all directions.
The little fox remained frozen in place for a long time, its mind filled with the smile of Jiang Chen and the various events within the nine cycles of reincarnation.
Suddenly, the little fox’s ears twitched, sensing someone rapidly approaching.
It could feel it must be Jiang Chen, drawn by the sound of battle, worried that Chen Sheng might have encountered trouble, thus he was hurrying over.
“Jiang Chen…”
The little fox whispered softly, wanting to rush to Jiang Chen’s side.
It wanted to tell Jiang Chen that it remembered everything, it wanted to tell Jiang Chen that in this life, it would not take the surname Bai, nor would it seek out the fated one again.
But after taking just one step, the little fox felt dizzy and on the verge of falling back into slumber.
It maintained consciousness through the burning of its ghostly fire, but it also stopped in its tracks.
In the nine cycles of reincarnation, it had mostly brought harm to Jiang Chen.
It felt unworthy. Unworthy of appearing by Jiang Chen’s side again, unworthy of causing him further worry.
It even felt undeserving of the name “Jiushuang” that Jiang Chen had given it.
Because even with all understanding and knowledge, it was still the Nine Heavens Mystic Fox, still a fox that would continually forget and always hurt people’s hearts…
“Jiang Chen, take care.”
In the end, the little fox fled.
It ran away from the man who haunted its dreams and filled its thoughts day and night.
The little fox dashed away, finding Chen Sheng and its grandmother locked in battle.
At this moment, Chen Sheng had been knocked to the ground by its grandmother, and from his uneven breathing, it was clear he was seriously injured.
Seeing the grandmother about to deliver a killing blow, the little fox immediately stood in front of Chen Sheng: “Grandmother, he can’t die. He’s a good person.”
A good person?
Upon hearing this, both the six-tailed old woman and Chen Sheng were dumbfounded.
Especially Chen Sheng.
After a brief moment of shock, he was furious!
He, Chen Sheng, had killed countless people in his life and was known as a demon!
To be called a good person now? That was slander!
What Chen Sheng didn’t know was that at that moment, the little fox had reversed the concepts of good and bad.
Through the nine cycles of reincarnation, it had seen Jiang Chen misunderstood and blamed so often that the little fox had grown to despise those righteous people.
Although they were nominally good, they were bad in their hearts.
On the other hand, Chen Sheng.
In the nine cycles of reincarnation, the little fox had heard Jiang Chen speak of this man.
It knew very well that Chen Sheng the protector had been truly kind to Jiang Chen.
Although nominally a bad person, he was a good person in his heart!
He still stank though…
“Grandmother, take me away quickly,” the little fox called out again.
“Did you see Jiang Chen?” the six-tailed old woman asked.
“There’s no time to explain, take me away, and I’ll tell you everything in detail,” the little fox said anxiously after sensing Jiang Chen getting closer.
“Alright.”
The six-tailed old woman hesitated no longer. With a light sweep of her sleeve, she and the little fox disappeared at the same time.
Seeing this, Chen Sheng was taken aback.
And while he was still in shock, Jiang Chen and the others quickly arrived.
“Old Chen, are you alright? Do you need the Jiang family to…” Seeing Chen Sheng extremely weak, Jiang Chen asked with concern.
“Young Master!”
Chen Sheng got up and interrupted, saying with ease: “No need to trouble the Jiang family. It’s a bit troublesome, but everything is under my control! That six-tailed old hag has been driven away by me!”
“Cough, cough!”
After speaking, he began to cough violently and spat out two mouthfuls of dirty blood…
“Uh, I have a lot of blood, it’s good for the body to spit some out,” Chen Sheng said with an awkward smile.
After uttering those words, he felt dizzy again, his body swaying.
Jiang Chen was speechless.
He had always known that Chen Sheng was extremely stubborn, not only wanting to boast everywhere about how awesome his young master was but also very concerned about face.
Helplessly, he had to quickly step forward to support him.
“Did the young master see that three-tailed white fox?” Chen Sheng asked after a while.
“Yes, I saw it,” Jiang Chen nodded.
“I scared it away with my bad smell and scolded away by me.”
“Young Master is awesome!”
Chen Sheng gave a big thumbs up.
To this, Jiang Chen could only sigh deeply.
Nine cycles of reincarnation; each time he died, his consciousness still existed until the arrival of the next life.
Therefore, even in death, he still witnessed the fate of people in the dark.
Indeed, in the nine cycles, the little fox’s trust and reliance on him were like a light in the darkness, illuminating his world.
But the ending was too tragic.
He didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes.
He doesn’t want the little fox to suffer in making choices anymore, nor does he want it to endure the pain of being burned by ghostly fire every day just to not forget him.
He tried hard and attempted to save the little fox and others, but the outcome remained unchanged.
Especially for the little fox, its ending of heart death and physical death was even more tragic compared to the original story.
This made Jiang Chen doubt for a while.
Was it because of his existence that the little fox lived in pain every day?
In this life, he wanted to be the villain.
Therefore, he could only stay away.
He had tried for nine lifetimes, so he was truly tired…
If everything is predestined, if he is doomed not to save the little fox, why bring more pain and torment?
In the cycle of nine lifetimes, the little fox’s physical death was due to Lin Feng, but its heart death was because of him.
Moreover, since he is the villain in this life, he will naturally become detestable.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
In his view, a human and a fox are also doomed to have no further intersection.
