Chapter 0121 – How Easy It Is to Forget – Absolute Returns

But she wasn’t slowing down at all, jumping off the cliff right after me.

It’s late at night, but the Ghost Gate is still lit up.

Ever since he became the young master of the Ghost Sect, Xu Kong (Ghost Spirit Son) has become a day-to-day person who hates having twenty-four hours in a day.

During the day, he had to learn the Ghost Sect’s secret “Ghost Shadow Trail Steps”, and at night, he also had to study “Reincarnation**”. This research was the long-time wish of the Ghost Sect for several generations, and the related books and materials were piled up like a mountain, with thousands of volumes.

This night, he was still in his study, picking his way through the night.

“With your diligence, if you used it to practice swords, I’m afraid you would have become the world’s number one swordsman long ago.” A familiar voice came from behind.

Without lifting his head, Ghost Spirit Zi replied, “With your qualifications, if you were willing to cultivate hard, I’m afraid you would have become the world’s number one expert a long time ago.”

The visitor was none other than his sister Xu Ran.

“If you keep fighting like this, sooner or later you’re going to wear out. If you collapse, all those things will fall on my head.”

“Don’t worry, I have an appointment with Yama, he won’t take me away until I finish this research.”

“Why haven’t I heard that from Hades?”

The ghost spirit finally put down the scroll in his hand and turned his head to look at his sister.

“Hey, my silly brother, look at you, you were already not good looking, and now you’re tired in this state, you’re really getting uglier and uglier.”

“Do I look that bad?”

“Only a mirror would tell you the truth, my silly brother.”

The ghost spirit laughed out loud. In the midst of the boring research day in and day out, only his sister’s flirting could make him feel a hint of relief.

Xu Ran placed the organized information on the table.

“Here, everything you wanted me to organize is here.”

“Hard work.”

“That’s right, I’m not like you, I’m naturally so smart. What you only need to read once, I need to read at least five times to memorize. How come these things are so hard to understand? It’s really killing me.”

“I know, I know.”

Ghost Spirit looked at his sister with heartache. She was in the prime of her youth, but she had to accompany herself to bury her head in the sand, it was really too much of an aggravation for her.

Xu Ran was not only beautiful, but also had a very cheerful and lively personality, so if she was willing, her suitors would definitely be able to break through the threshold. But now, she is trapped in this study, day after day with those boring books as her companion.

Xu Ran suddenly spoke up and asked, “Brother, do you really believe that ‘Reincarnation Reincarnation**’ really exists?”

“I believe it.” Ghost Spirit replied without hesitation.

“But is it really possible to change one’s destiny against the heavens?”

“I’m sure.”

How could the oni not understand his sister’s mind?

“It’s hard, isn’t it?”

“I just think that at this rate, we’re done for the rest of our lives. When we’re old and we have to give these things to our children, are we going to let them be stuck in this study for the rest of their lives, just like we were?”

“I will, in my generation, finish this research.”

“You’ll have to hurry then, I don’t want to wait until I’m old enough to have a few days of comfort.”

Xu Ran turned to leave, but then stopped at the door.

“Even if ‘Reincarnation Reincarnation**’ really exists, even if you can really go back to the past, then what? What are you going to do after you go back to the past? Are you going to continue your research by locking yourself up in your study like you are doing now? When you have researched the ‘Reincarnation Reincarnation**’, are you going to start researching the ‘Immortality**’ again?”

“!”

“If you already have another answer in mind, then that means that the life we’re living is wrong, and we should be doing what we really want to do, living the life we really want to live, shouldn’t we?”

The oni was silent, he knew his sister was right, but he couldn’t refute it.

Xu Ran didn’t continue, she knew that it was useless to say anything now.

“Get some early rest, look at you, how haggard you’ve become.”

After saying that, Xu Ran turned around and left the study.

Ghost Spirit leaned helplessly against the back of his chair and let out a long sigh.

My sister was right, if he could live in the present and cherish the people in front of him, he might not be obsessed with going back to the past. However, “Reincarnation**” was the long-cherished wish of the Ghost Sect for generations, and as the young master of the Ghost Sect, he was duty-bound to do so.

At that moment, an underling hurriedly ran into the study, bringing news that Ghost Spirit Son had been waiting for a long time: the person he had been waiting for would arrive at the Ghost Gate tomorrow.

Lee Ann Heart and I landed at an inn near the Ghost Gate.

Heart hung his mask at his waist, his face veiled, revealing only a pair of soulful eyes.

We asked for a room with two beds and went downstairs for dinner.

Along the way, we stayed in this kind of room. I had asked Heart if she wanted to live separately, but she said that she preferred to live with me so that we could talk at night and fall asleep at the same time.

We were sitting in the first floor lobby eating, and all the guests around us were talking about the Ghost Spirit’s wedding. It seemed that the wedding had become the talk of the neighborhood after tea.

“I didn’t expect the Ghost Sect to join forces with the Lin Clan’s Sword Sect.”

“Yeah, it’s really unexpected. I’ve heard that the Lin Clan’s Sword Sect has traditionally been married to a Sword Dao family.”

“I heard that it was Miss Lin who convinced her father to facilitate the marriage.”

“The combination of the Ghost Sect and the Sword Sect is truly a powerful combination.”

“Look, isn’t that the Ghost Sect’s Young Lord?”

Heart and I followed the gazes of the crowd, only to see a familiar figure appear at the entrance of the inn.

My heart trembled violently, that was none other than the young Ghost Spirit. When I saw him before, he had already entered middle age, and now that I see him again, a trace of youthfulness still remains on his face.

”It’s been a long time, onii-chan.”

Although before the reincarnation, he and I have only met a few times, but each meeting means decades of hard cultivation and search. When I think back to the time when I was looking for the materials for the “Reincarnation **”, I almost traveled all over the cultivation world, and only I know the hardships involved.

The ghostly spirit seemed to be waiting for someone, and he looked anxiously across the street.

Not long after, a group of men and horses came galloping from the distance, led by a valiant woman. When the men and horses approached, the woman rolled over and dismounted, and the attendants behind her also dismounted, seemingly all protecting her.

Ghostly Spirit greeted him with a quick step.

“Miss Lin!”

The person who came was none other than Ghost Spirit’s fiancée – Lin Xiang.

“Mr. Xu? Why are you here?”

“I heard you were coming, so I came out to greet you.”

Ghost Spirit looked at Lin Xiang, his eyes filled with tenderness.

“Thank you, thank you for saying yes to my proposal.”

“I believe you, that’s why I agreed to marry you.”

“Your father he ……”

“He has agreed, but …… it will take a little time.”

“I’ll try to get him to accept me.”

Ghost Spirit Zi didn’t care about the gazes of the people around him and said loudly.

“I will spend my whole life loving you and making you the happiest woman in the world. No one can stop us from being together!”

I looked at the scene in front of me in disbelief.

‘I thought you said your married life was a nightmare?’
