Chapter 181: Soul retention

Translator: Henyee Translations       Editor: Henyee Translations

Old Madam Gu was in tears. It was only because her sons supported her that she did not fall down. She called out to Gu Teng, “My daughter, don’t scare me, wake up.”

Xiao Jing did not believe that Gu Teng would die. He was about to run out and was stopped by Gu Yu. “Where are you taking my sister?”

“I’m going to the Soaring Cloud Sect to find Master Song Yun.” Xiao Jing said anxiously, “Gu Teng’s final words were about her Master, she must want me to look for her.

Yunbao was so anxious to see her mother that tears fell. Gu Lin quickly stood at the door and stopped Xiao Jing. “Master Song Yun previously said that she was going into seclusion in the Soaring Cloud Sect. Now it must be inconvenient to rush over with my sister like this, it would be better to directly send a letter to the Soaring Cloud Sect to invite her over.”

Xiao Jing also knew that he was impulsive. He held Gu Teng back to the sofa and put the person down. Yunbao stood on the side and held her mother’s hand. “Mom, open your eyes and look at Yunbao.”

She said that while transmitting energy to her mother, it would be useless to enter continuously. Gu Teng was still lying on the sofa without any breath.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Shan pulled Xiao Jing aside and said, “If Gu Teng dies, you can’t be stupid. Say a few good words to the Gu family to fool them. Don’t say that you won’t marry in the future. Our Xiao family is still counting on you to carry on the family line.”

Xiao Jing knew that his father was very shameless, but he was very angry at his shameless words. He shook off his hand and said, “If you want to carry on the family line, why don’t you marry someone yourself?”

After saying that, he asked the bodyguards to invite him out. Xiao Shan saw that he couldn’t persuade his son, so he could only go back first. However, if Gu Teng really died, he had to quickly find his next daughter-in-law.

Yunbao held Gu Teng’s hand tightly and did not let go. She could even sense that Gu Teng’s soul was about to leave. It was as if something was guiding Gu Teng’s soul to leave quickly.

The amethyst bracelet on Yunbao’s wrist shone brightly. Purple Eye said to Yunbao, “Hurry up and use your blood to keep your mother’s soul. Otherwise, she will really leave.”

Yunbao did not hesitate. She picked up the fruit knife on the table and cut her finger. Ignoring the pain, she smeared the blood between Gu Teng’s eyebrows. Then, she chanted an incantation with Purple Eye and finally fixed Gu Tengs soul in her body.

“What’s going on?” Song Yun’s voice sounded in the hall. She stood at the door with Zhao Ning and asked in surprise.

After saving her lover, Song Yun was too ashamed to face Yunbao. She decided to go into seclusion in the Soaring Cloud Sect to accumulate strength. When the time came, she would pass all this energy to Yunbao as compensation.

However, Gu Teng had sent the invitation to the birthday banquet to the Soaring Cloud Sect. She did not expect her disciple to still think of her. After thinking about it again and again, she decided to attend the banquet.

However, there were some twists and turns on the way, so she did not arrive here on time. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered, she saw Gu Teng lying on the sofa. Everyone looked sad.

Song Yun quickly rushed to Gu Teng’s side and reached out to sense the energy fluctuation of Gu Teng. She did not expect to not feel anything. It was as if Gu Teng had died.

Yunbao sobbed and said, “Master, Mommy’s soul almost flew away just now. Please save Mommy.”

Originally, Song Yun did not understand what had happened to Gu Teng, but what Yunbao said about her soul flying away reminded her. Wasn’t this the Soul Assimilation Technique from the ancient books sealed by the Soaring Cloud Sect?

As long as one set up a formation in advance to extract energy, they could take a person’s soul away when the time came.

This kind of spell was a disgrace to the Soaring Cloud Sect, so it was sealed in the deepest part of the library and not allowed to be learned by disciples. Mao Feng was the person who stole this book.

Thinking about how Mao Feng reconstructed Gu Teng’s body, Song Yun had a terrifying deduction. “He wants to take Gu Teng’s soul away and wash away all the memories on her soul to create a new Gu Teng.”

Mao Feng fell in love with Gu Teng and caused those things in the past. Now that Gu Teng had returned to Xiao Jing’s side, he naturally could not accept it.

According to his thoughts, as long as Gu Teng forgot Xiao Jing, she would fall in love with him. The way to make Gu Teng forget Xiao Jing was to cleanse the memories in Gu Teng’s soul.

However, this spell was incomplete. During the cleansing process, it was very likely to cause damage to the soul. If he was not careful, Gu Teng would become an useless person who would only eat and sleep without any thoughts.

When Song Yun thought of this, anger rose in her heart. She could not help but smash the table with her fist.. “What a shameless person!”
