[Reincarnated type Childhood friend]'s embarkment

The 8th day on the third month of the lunar calendar year, the break of dawn.

I who was tidily outfitted made a final check onto those items carried on me.

All sorts of talismans, buddhist prayer beads, a few pouches of small beans, charm-water, a couple of peaches..........and for precaution's sake, also bringing along a cross, as well as garlic.

What's needed to be prepared were already fully prepared.

Because the time was very rushed, the preparations that I've made weren't that adequate..........and I too don't know if those things were to be sufficient.

Although it may looked to be rather exaggerative, but I must have the worst expectation in mind, and about that point, I must never ever be negligent.

Since it's the Qing Ming festival today..........one of the three big ghost festivals.

During this day, the doors of hell were left wide open without closing up, with masses of ghosts freely able to explore the human realm.

Though a huge portion of ghosts during Qing Ming festival were benevolent or house ghosts, along with the festive being slightly more peaceful compared to the other two ghost festivals, the power of ghosts would be exponentially increased for today, and it's a irrefutable fact that their mood will also turn psychotic as well.

Especially for within this block of city presently, it's not known on why there would be a ginormous amount of ghostly existences having gathered at here, hence the situation being quite dangerous.

Recently, all those variants of corpse splicing and murdering events occurring were in truth 'ghosts causing havoc'..........those evil chaos-intending ghosts, they definitely would take some sort of action today.

However, about what sort of ruckus those ghosts will be creating, it would be out of my reach already, as those were the jobs of the exorcism squad, having completely no relation to me.

I'm only concerned.........if 'she' would be enacting any sort of overboard actions.

That young lady, known as Jiang Xue Qing, who's right by Jun Cheng-dàren's sides, had a ghostly white complexion, being expressionless and wordless, along with a murderous aura encompassing around her, with its stench of blood being abnormally thick.

Judging from her appearance as well as the aura that she's emanating, it's indisputable that she had already been possessed by a ghost.

Especially that unnatural grayish hair, it's undoubtedly due to having being possessed by a ghost for a long period of time; a conditional aftereffect resulted from unrestrainedly utilizing the power of ghosts.

When that grayish hair completely turns white, along with her pupils fully becoming scarlet red, plus her entirety emanating out an ominously malevolent aura thereafter, that young lady would have then downright transformed into a true ghost.........

When that time comes, she would definitely lose control, transforming into a ferocious human-eating ghost that completely lacks any form of reason, and would even bring harm to Jun Cheng-dàren.

Plus, the most probable moment of when this sort of transformation would be happening..........was today!

As such, for this period of time, I devoted my entire efforts onto looking for ways to counteract it, searching for solutions against ghosts within my previous reincarnations' memories, cultivating out a few Taoist skills at the very last minute, as well as having prepared a few items.........but there's still the sensation of it still not yet being fully adequate.

The ghost that possessed Jiang Xue Qing was an extremely powerful entity, and I'm unable to guarantee that those last minute cultivated skill sets and items would be able to stop her..........

However, I have no choice but to do my best.

As no matter what, I must protect Jun Cheng-dàren.

Even if I'm to throw away this life of mine, I must also ensure onto Jun Cheng-dàren's safety.

After I've once again firmly become resoluted, I set off from home, proceeded to Jun Cheng-daren's area of residence and quietly waited.

After about half a time period later, Jun Cheng-dàren had a frantic appearance as he pushed open the doors, dashing out.

(TL: one time period = 2 hours; see footnotes)

Setting off at this timing seemed to be a little too late, had the always punctual Jun Cheng-dàren actually waken up late already? Looks like there's seemingly something happening yesterday which I'm not aware of..........Uuu, although I wanted to always wait by Jun Cheng-dàren's sides, but recently, in order to cultivate Taoism skills, I definitely would have some oversight in that aspect.........it also couldn't be helped.

After today, I'll go investigate about it then.

Today, Jun Cheng-dàren will be attending Ji Lian Bing's anniversary feast, and I'm not sure of what would be happening when he proceeds there during this very day, hence I must accompany Jun Cheng-dàren throughout his entire journey, with his safety then being guaranteed thereafter.

During this lifetime, Jun Cheng-dàren seemingly also had the appearance of having loveship's blessing. It wasn't loveship's luck however, instead being loveship's omen.

There's a lot of young females unknowingly gathered around his sides, each of them being as pretty as flowers, thoroughly captivatingly beautiful.

And that ancient proverb expressed it out well, beauty engenders calamity.........these girls would not be able to bring happiness to Jun Cheng-dàren, merely continually spawning misfortune to him.

Especially for within those girls; most of them were merely pinkish skeletons. After peeling off that layer of 'cosmetics', their revealed true appearance would be extremely terrifying, even being comparable to demons as well.

Like that female, her true name being Ji Lian Bing, currently going out with Jun Cheng-dàren, seemingly appearing cheery, but in reality saturated with killing intentions.

That sort of killing intentions, was due to her being unable to obtain onto something that she wants, being unable to have her urges being satisfied, resulting in feelings of dissatisfaction in which she concealed within.

And hence, it's deducible that perhaps she had wanted to obtain something from Jun Cheng-dàren, and that would be the true motive of her getting close to Jun Cheng-dàren.

It can't be said to be of love at all, merely only wanting to satisfy her personal urges.

I must think of a way to make Jun Cheng-dàren understand onto this woman's true appearance. The best outcome would be for them to immediately break up, afterwards never ever being in contact with each other, and that way, I'll be able to.........um..........

I, I.........this is only a safety consideration for Jun Cheng-dàren, and it's not because that I want to solely monopolize Jun Cheng-dàren.

Then again, speaking of which, allowing me to stay by Jun Cheng-dàren's sides was also the best choice. If it's me, a person who understood him the most to stick close to his sides, not only I'll be able to closely protect him, but also would have ensued that he'll be spending his current lifetime in happiness and comfort, and that should be what Jun Cheng-dàren hopes for.

However, there's also a girl, namely being Lan Hua who was obsessed with Jun Cheng-dàren.........there's also a sense of danger potentially within her.

Along with a few demonic monsters too having pestered onto Jun Cheng-dàren.........

And also, being a blood-related younger sister, she's still being too overly attached to her elder brother, and there's seemingly an inclination of it developing into a forbidden love..........

Thinking about those things which became even more harder and harder for me to manage, I frowned my eyebrows uncontrollably.

It's really a huge catastrophe for this lifetime.........it's still not yet the year of maturity, yet already being afflicted with such amounts of karmic conflicts, does it imply that it's destined for Jun Cheng-dàren to not be ordinary for this lifetime?

(TL: the year of maturity she's referring to the is traditional ceremonial crowning age, which is 20 y.o)

Hence heavens giving me another chance to meet upon him, allowing me to aid him through these disasters, huh?

.........That's right, it must be that case.

These things needed to be resolved, but it's bad to be poorly dealing with all of these at once, hence I must handle them one at a time.

Considering from an urgency standpoint, Jiang Xue Qing would be an immediate calamity.

I'm also not aware of when she would be deciding to manifest, so I must have my wariness be reinvigorated!

After casting the art of concealment onto myself, Jun Cheng-dàren wouldn't be able to feel onto my presence anymore.

Jun Cheng-dàren didn't proceed to board the metro or public transport, running towards a direction opposite towards the destination where he should be headed instead.

Where's he going to?

Given Jun Cheng-dàren's personality, shouldn't he not be doing such promise-breaking conducts at all? Mm.........but it's also fine this way, being able to avoid having any sort of contact with Ji Lian Bing as much as possible.
