Chapter 184: A Blood Pact Marriage

“You met the person you wanted to meet?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lu Ying and the King of Hades looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other’s eyes.

“It’s Uncle-Master Lu’s daughter, Lu Sheng.”

Chu Sihan lowered his eyes, a smile on his thin lips. “Father said before that I was going to experience the tribulation of love in the human world, and the target was Uncle-Master Lu’s daughter. I’ve always wanted to see her, but I didn’t expect that she would actually be by my side.”

It was no wonder that Lu Sheng was destined to be his.

“You’ve met?”

The King of Hades chuckled. “That child is obedient and cute. I remember the last time I saw her, she was only seven or eight years old.”

“Really?”

Lu Ying smiled and said, “I’ve never met Junior Brother Lu’s daughter. It looks like I have to find some time to meet my future daughter-in-law.”

After the King of Hades and Lu Zhou decided on this marriage, she gave the jade bracelet to Lu Zhou and told him to give it to her when Lu Sheng turned eighteen.

Lu Ying’s jade hairpin was handed over to the King of Hades so that he could give to Chu Sihan as a love token of exchange.

“Speaking of which, there’s something that I really don’t understand.” Chu Sihan looked at the King of Hades and asked, “Father, why did Sheng Sheng address Uncle-Master Lu as ‘Master’ and not ‘Father’? Has Sheng Sheng already reincarnated once?”

“That’s not true.”

The King of Hades explained, “Originally, you shouldn’t have reincarnated in this world, but in another one. However, your soul power was damaged during the lightning tribulation, so you couldn’t reach that world. Xiao Sheng had no choice but to be pulled into this space-time dimension.”

“What do you mean?” Lu Ying asked curiously.

The King of Hades continued to explain, “Junior Brother agreed to this marriage. At that time, there was a blood pact. If Han Er could not reach that world, Xiao Sheng would be dragged to this space-time dimension. This marriage was destined not to be destroyed.”

Chu Sihan narrowed his eyes. “So, Sheng Sheng did not reincarnate but her soul came over?”

The King of Hades nodded. “You can say that.”

Chu Sihan nodded and asked, “Then why did Uncle-Master Lu become the Third Prince?”

“In order to find Xiao Sheng, he disregarded heaven’s will and broke through this space-time dimension. The price he paid was to lose his original skin. He happened to meet the dying Third Prince when he came over, so he directly used that body.”

“Even if that’s the case, why did Sheng Sheng call him ‘Master’ in private? Could it be to conceal his identity as the Third Prince?”

Chu Sihan was puzzled.

The King of Hades said helplessly, “That’s because your Uncle-Master Lu never told Xiao Sheng that he was Xiao Sheng’s father. He told Xiao Sheng that she was abandoned halfway up the mountain when she was young and was later adopted by him.”

“I see!”

No wonder Lu Sheng always called Lu Zhou “Master” but never “Father”.

Lu Ying raised her eyebrows and looked at her son. She teased him with a smile, “Look at how you keep calling her Sheng Sheng. It seems like you’re very satisfied with your Uncle-Master Lu’s daughter, right?”

At the mention of Lu Sheng, Chu Sihan’s thin lips curled up subconsciously.

“After this period of interaction, I feel that she is the candidate for my wife in my heart.”

He had been a ghost for so many years that he had long forgotten how it felt to have a heartbeat, let alone his heart beating rapidly.

Later on, he entered the cycle of reincarnation and lost his original memories. Although he had a heartbeat, it wasn’t much different.

It could be said that Lu Sheng was the only person who made his heart race.

The King of Hades laughed out loud. “Father was originally worried that your Uncle-Master Lu wouldn’t raise Xiao Sheng well. Now, it seems like this isn’t the case.”

He knew how unreliable Lu Zhou was.

If Lu Ying wasn’t a ghost, he would have long suggested to Lu Zhou to send the child to the Netherworld to be taken care of by Lu Ying herself.
