<b>Chapter 8 – Because Of That One Mistake Long Ago, He Must Now Bear A Neverending Regret</b>
Because his skin was so delicate, marks became more obvious and didn’t fade easily.\nAlthough the two of them had been separated for nearly a hundred years, Qiu ChangFeng was intimately familiar with Bai YueSheng’s body. This kind of love mark was left by sucking forcefully on the skin and if medicine wasn’t used, even if several days passed, the mark wouldn’t disappear.
This was undoubtedly a hickey.
A kiss mark that someone else had left behind.
After realizing this, Qiu ChangFeng’s heart felt as though it was being beaten with a hailstorm, his blood felt as though it was filled with lead. The violent suffocation was followed by intense rage.
Bai YueSheng was sensitive to Qiu ChangFeng’s change in mood. In the beginning he had wanted to just go along with him and just do it. If it could send this plague god back to his own world, then doing it once wasn’t a big deal.
But Qiu ChangFeng had suddenly stopped and was staring at him with a dead gaze, his expression filled with a look of murder.
Bai YueSheng quickly realized what had happened.
Dammit, that heavy-handed bastard Jeremy had left countless marks on his body. If he took off his clothes, then Qiu ChangFeng would probably destroy half of the earth.
Bai YueSheng forcefully pushed away Qiu ChangFeng.
Qiu ChangFeng’s gentle appearance had disappeared, replaced with his true nature of dark obsession. He said in a sinking voice, “Who was it?”
He knew it wasn’t the boy from the western restaurant – if his body had carried Bai YueSheng’s scent then he would have killed him on the spot and would never have let him just walk away.
Bai Yuesheng frowned and raised his head to look at him. “What does it have to do with you?”
Qiu ChangFeng’s eyes became dark and his lips thinned into a line. He repeated the question. “Who did you make love to?”
Bai YueSheng laughed lightly and looked away. He didn’t look at Qiu ChangFeng, merely walking around him to the bathroom.
“Bai YueSheng!” Qiu ChangFeng’s voice was filled with rage.
Bai YueSheng didn’t reply. He only said coldly, “That’s my freedom.” His voice lowered and he spoke again in that voice that Qiu ChangFeng was both familiar with and hated with passion, “You already know what kind of person I am, don’t you?”
Peng. Bai YueSheng shut the door of the bathroom.
Left standing in that unfamiliar apartment, Qiu ChangFeng was left suffering tremendous pain, feeling himself being swallowed by despair and yet unable to do anything about it.
Because of that one mistake he made a long time ago, he must now bear a neverending regret.
In the bathroom, Bai YueSheng removed his clothes, gazed at himself in the mirror and sighed.
He was too careless. He had forgotten to take care of the marks. But after all who could have thought that within two or three days, another man who should not have appeared had indeed appeared?
Bai YueSheng reached into his space bag and and retrieved the ointment. He rubbed it onto his skin and those marks, both light and heavy, disappeared at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.
Even though he used his words to pressure Qiu ChangFeng and scare him into temporary submission, he didn’t want to push him too far. When that guy became crazy no one could control him.
As Bai YueSheng tried to think of a good strategy, outside Qiu ChangFeng was still frozen. He had not moved an inch from his original position. Hundreds of years ago, in that other world, he had also stood frozen like this in front of that mountain gate, silent as a lonely statue as he was blown by the cold wind, waiting, waiting, only hoping to see Bai YueSheng one more time.
That was when he had made his first mistake. He had then been cast out of the mountain by Bai YueSheng, thrown down with the words, “From now on, we will have no more to do with each other.”
At that time he could only feel one thing, and that was to move the heaven and the earth.
{T/N: Sorry I also don’t know exactly what the author means by this.}
There were some people whose from birth, their very existence was already a mistake. Ever since Qiu ChangFeng was very young, probably only two or three years old, his family had all died. After that he ran into a demon, the man that completely insulted the name of “Shifu”.
He was treated as a human scabbard and every day he bore the pain of the spirit sword piercing through his bones. Every day his bones were broken, every day his flesh was hacked into pieces, the constant pain eroded his mental state and plunged him into the deepest pit of hell.
Qiu ChangFeng tried to escape countless times but each and every time he was dragged back, and was tortured with even more painful measures.
He had originally thought he would never be able to escape from this hell, until the day Bai YueSheng had appeared, saved him, and shown him a beautiful new world.
At that time Bai YueSheng was the unparalleled high ranking Elder of the Jiu XuanZong, his cultivation was extremely high, not only that but his face was peerlessly beautiful.
When Qiu ChangFeng first saw this heavenly person, he unreservedly called him “Shifu” but deep in his heart, at the moment they met, the obsession was also born and which from that day never left him.
If there was really a god in this world then Bai YueSheng was that- he was his God.
Back then the low and humble Qiu ChangFeng had this thought his head.
But in the end he imprisoned his God.
Bai YueSheng came out from the bathroom and saw Qiu ChangFeng still standing in the living room. His whole person seemed to be wrapped in a black aura, there was no light coming from that cold man.
Bai YueSheng recalled the time when the youth stood outside the Jiu XuanZong’s gate for an entire month, he had stood so long he had almost turned into a ice sculpture in the cold winter wind.
Back then Bai YueSheng was extremely angry after realizing he had raised a snake. At that time he had been controlled by that disgusting love drug, he was looking desperately for an antidote, not realizing he was being manipulated by the person closest to him, and had for no good reason been rolled in the bed by him for five years. When thinking about it he really couldn’t get passed it!
Bai YueSheng didn’t treat sex as something that was too serious. He had lived for too long, seen too many things and not to mention he had the special nature of a transmigrator. All this had made him develop a nature where he didn’t want to deny himself anything he needed. Whether it be food, clothing, things he used as well as the needs of the body, he was very practical.
But this didn’t mean he was willing to be manipulated, especially to the extent where he constantly craved to make love.
At that time Bai YueSheng had accidentally ingested the drug. Every three days his body would need to have sex. Ethically he should not have touched Qiu ChangFeng, after all on the surface they were adoptive father and son. It was only that he accidentally ran into Qiu ChangFeng and so under the dizzying influence of the drug, they had had sex. Afterwards Qiu ChangFeng’s attitude had been seemingly very calm, and even put forward several points to help him analyze the situation.
Bai YueSheng’s position was very superior. If someone untrustworthy was to get wind of the situation, then there be trouble. Qiu ChangFeng was someone that had been beside Bai YueSheng for over ten years, and was also indebted to Bai YueSheng so he definitely would never betray him.
Even though they were adopted father and son, it was really only because Bai YueSheng pitied Qiu ChangFeng at the time and wanted to give him a better status. It was true that the age difference between the two people was very large, but in the cultivation world age was never a factor.
The most important thing was the two of them had already done it. It didn’t matter that it was an accident, once the deed was done it could never be undone. Thinking about all this Bai YueSheng thought that since he had to do it with someone, then it may as well be Qiu ChangFeng.
But who would have thought, in his endless quest for the antidote, the biggest obstacle in his way was in fact the person who shared his bed?
After realizing the things Qiu ChangFeng had done, Bai YueSheng was so angry he immediately cast him out of the sect.
Afterwards when he had calmed down, Bai YueSheng understood Qiu ChangFeng’s feelings, but even if he understood so what?
Was love an excuse to hurt someone? If so, then who would want that kind of love?
Bai YueSheng stood front of the bathroom door, staring unblinkingly at Qiu ChangFeng.
Qiu ChangFeng also looked at him. His eyes were like a dark abyss, sucking up all energy around him.
Bai YueSheng still had many suspicions. He softly asked, “You haven’t told me yet how you came here.”
He directly skipped over the part of the hickey but to Qiu ChangFeng this was an indirect way of admitting what had happened.
Qiu ChangFeng’s lips twisted slightly and his look was dark. “I missed you, so I came.”
Bai YueSheng frowned tightly. Clearly he was trying to avoid telling him the truth.
Qiu Changfeng stared at him unblinkingly, after seeing his demeanor, he suddenly became calm. The heavy, negative emotions coursing through his blood was temporarily suppressed and he said with a self-deprecating movement of his lips, “Don’t ask as you can’t know.”
Bai YueSheng narrowed his eyes, feeling there was a hidden meaning to his words.
But the strange thing was Qiu ChangFeng chose to seemingly forget about the hickey. Not only did he not mention it, he also didn’t get angry. He resumed his previously gentle and warm attitude and said softly, “What do you want to eat tomorrow morning?”
This was too bizarre.
After being cared for by Qiu “Resident of a Lunatic Asylum” Feng for a week, Bai YueSheng keenly felt that the world was becoming too unreal.
I really saw a ghost!* What the hell is going on?\n\n{T/N: “Jian Gui”/”Saw Ghost” is a Chinese way for emphasizing the situation is very strange or someone is acting extremely out of character.}
In the morning he would be called awake, after entering the bathroom the water in the bathtub had just the right temperature, even his toothbrush was prepared. After the bath, the clothes he needed to wear were hanging ready, even the underwear. The most scary thing was everything was to Bai YueSheng’s taste, extremely perfectly done.
After dressing breakfast would be laid on the table, they were all food he liked. Then he could go straight out of the door to school.
Bai YueSheng sat in the passenger seat and he really wanted to ask where Qiu ChangFeng had gotten such a limited edition car from…
OK, really there was no need to ask. A person who could lightly raise his hand to destroy have the world, it was nothing to get a car.
Bai YueSheng’s life was too comfortable, he even began to not really care what Qiu ChangFeng’s purpose in coming was.
At this time, Ah Jiu came back: “Young Master, you’ve been living well.”
Bai YueSheng: “……”
Ah Jiu: “This is the fourth world you went to, the cultivation world’s Qiu ChangFeng?”
Bai YueSheng said emotionlessly: “Student Jiu, you don’t seem surprised.”\n
{T/N: “Jiu” means Nine.}
Ah Jiu: “I’m quite surprised that his fellow hasn’t gone insane.”
Bai YueSheng narrowed his eyes: “You know something don’t you?”
Ah Jiu: “I had a wild guess, I didn’t think it would really come true.”
Bai YueSheng and Ah Jiu’s understanding of each other was almost like Siamese twins, he understood immediately: “You’re not telling me…”
Ah Jiu: “It’s quite possible.”
Bai YueSheng thought of all the worlds he had passed through and was filled with trepidation: “Then… then….”
Ah Jiu: “It is a promotion mission, how could we think it would be easy?”
Bai YueSheng: “If they really all come, who the F* can handle it?”
Ah Jiu: “You’re the one who didn’t listen to your elders, I told you not to pick so many flowers but you wouldn’t listen.”\n\n{T/N: “Pick flowers” is a Chinese way of saying flirting.}
“….” Bai YueSheng. “Get lost!”
Compared to the hell Bai YueSheng was experiencing, Ah Jiu’s mood was pretty good. He alerted him in a friendly manner: “By the way, the reason I came back is to tell you just now I vaguely felt the presence of Jeremy….”
