Chapter 190: Chapter 189: Angry with Grandpa Heaven

Mianmian still had something to say, but she held it back. She actually wanted to perform a ritual to set the Phoenix Fairy free.

Little Bun thought so in her heart but didn’t say it out loud, afraid that Phoenix Fairy would be disappointed.

As she was contemplating how to proceed, she heard Cui Liang and Zhou Jing’s voices, "Little Auntie, why don’t you give Phoenix Fairy a break?"

Mianmian looked up at the couple and pursed her lips tightly without speaking.

Thinking Mianmian was displeased, the couple’s faces turned a bit awkward. Cui Liang even hurriedly apologized, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Little Auntie. We’re just ordinary people, we don’t understand the rules."

Mianmian ignored them both, only asking Su Chenjin to put her down.

Upon landing, Mianmian followed the invisible chains on Phoenix Fairy’s body to where they began.

The place happened to have a resting chair, which must be where Phoenix Fairy’s body was after she committed suicide.

Mianmian squatted on the ground, seriously touching the chains with her tiny hands, contemplating what to do next.

Green, who had been hiding and unseen by all the mortals, quietly spoke to Mianmian, "Are you going to perform the rites for Phoenix Fairy’s soul to ascend?"

Mianmian shook her head and answered in a tiny voice, "No, I want to set Phoenix Fairy free."

A ghost who committed suicide can neither enter the cycle of reincarnation nor be taken away by those with cultivation. To leave, they must find a substitute to die in their place.

But even after finding a substitute and being successfully taken to the Underworld, they still can’t be reincarnated; they’ll be captured and immediately thrown into the eighteen levels of Hell to be punished, having committed the sin of murder.

This rule is the punishment from the Heavenly Grandpa for those who don’t cherish life. It’s extremely inflexible; even if someone had a reason for suicide, there would be no forgiveness.

Mianmian’s desire to set Phoenix Fairy free was tantamount to opposing the well-established rules.

"You really are bold," Green mused. "The Jade Emperor’s Heavenly Laws are already very rigid. Yang Jian opposed the Jade Emperor to save his mother, enduring countless difficulties before succeeding. And here you are, a little brat, thinking of defying the Heavenly Dao, to break the laws established by it."

The words from Green made Mianmian worry.

Her little mouth pouted, she said indignantly, "If Heavenly Grandpa doesn’t agree with me doing this, I’ll be angry with Heavenly Grandpa and give him the cold shoulder!"

Green couldn’t help but laugh after hearing this.

Getting angry with the Heavenly Dao and threatening to give it the cold shoulder?

"How are you going to do that? Throw ice cubes at your Heavenly Grandpa to fight?"

Mianmian, hearing Green’s explanation of a cold war, also burst into laughter and said, "Green, you actually don’t know the meaning of cold war, Green, you blockhead~"

As she laughed, she summoned her Flying Sword and stood up in a stance, gripping the Sword with both hands and chopping towards the chains on the ground.

Having decided to do it, she might as well give it a try.

She didn’t care about the consequences!

Little Bun thought haughtily, only to feel the Sword hit something extraordinarily hard.

Clang—

The sound of the Sword colliding with the chains rang out next to Mianmian’s ears.

It was a sound only Mianmian could hear.

The chains trembled, and a nearly imperceptible crack appeared.

It was a scene only Mianmian could see.

Mianmian’s eyes brightened, knowing this had an effect. She swung the Sword again.

Stroke after stroke, suddenly, dark clouds gathered overhead, and fierce winds blew, chilling people to the bone. The terrifying phenomenon made Su Chenjin frown.

He realized that his own Little Auntie seemed to be doing something dreadful that even angered the heavens.

And yet, despite having briefly opened his Heavenly Eye and being able to see ghosts, Su Chenjin still couldn’t see what his Little Auntie was doing, only guessing from her posture that she was using a Sword to chop something.

With each strike, dark clouds hovered above Little Bun’s head, crackling with electricity.

At the same moment, residents living nearby witnesses this anomaly of Heaven and Earth. Some tried to enter the Amusement Park to see what was happening and why there was thunder from clear skies, but were blocked by the Su Family’s staff at the park’s entrance.

Meanwhile, in the neighboring zoo, a male staff member stared at the overcast sky, his brow deeply furrowed.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he brought his index finger and middle finger together, chanting an incantation.

After finishing, the staff member’s face showed panic.

The little creature had not been called back, and he had also lost contact with it.

Could this be the anomaly caused by that little creature?

No, that can’t be right. The little creature only looks like a Qiongqi on the outside but is actually very weak, completely useless. There must have been something else that happened at the amusement park to have caused the sky to become so overcast.

Perhaps there was a powerful Daoist who, after divining, thought the place next door was a good place to face his tribulation, choosing to go through it and incidentally taking the little creature and that suicide ghost along with him.

It doesn’t matter anyway. The little creature wasn’t of much use to begin with. If it has been taken, so be it.

He could still create even more powerful strange beasts!

With these thoughts in mind, the staff member continued to observe the sky.

Mianmian had already chopped many times, and only a bit of the chain was still connected.

Just one more chop, and the chain would be completely severed. The thunder that had been building up in the sky was becoming lower and lower, lingering above Mianmian’s little head.

This time, the color of the thunder was different from the pale white that had made Mianmian bundle up her hair. It was a bright, golden yellow.

Mianmian could feel the danger too. She lifted her little head, her big, shiny black eyes almost turning golden yellow from the thunder hanging in mid-air.

In the dark, Mianmian seemed to hear someone asking a question.

"Su Mianmian, with this final strike, you will have completely broken the rules of Heaven and Earth and will receive the punishment of Heavenly Thunder. You could die, and you won’t even be able to save your mom and dad. Are you sure you want to continue?"

Mianmian was stunned by the question.

After breaking the chain, will she not be able to save her mom and dad?

While Mianmian was stunned, Phoenix Fairy was also taken aback.

He too heard the strange voice.

"Phoenix Fairy, 90 years ago you committed suicide by drawing your sword, dying in this very place. If your soul did not perish, you would forever endure the agony before death right here. Now the chains binding you are about to be destroyed, and the person destroying those chains will take your place in bearing the consequences. Are you sure you want her to continue, thereby gaining your freedom?"

These words shook Phoenix Fairy to his core.

Of course, he wanted to leave this place!

Back then, the land where he was born was invaded by another country, and countless compatriots who could not bear the humiliation were persecuted. Fortunately, he had a group of friends with the same high morals, and the entire opera troupe was willing to perish together with those executioners!

Actually, for safety, the troupe had already poisoned the invaders’ food and water. Regretfully, some of the invaders did not consume that food.

It was because of this that when a great fire started, burning everywhere in the troupe, those demons who had not been poisoned and found they could not escape started to torture them instead with the weapons they carried.

What did they have to fear from any threat, when they could not escape death anyway?

One by one, they resorted to every means to commit suicide, fearing they could not endure the abuse and preferring not to show an unsightly, pleading face on the stage they loved.

At first, some compatriots, like him, became ghosts and lingered here.

And those invaders who could not return to their homeland after death continued to fight with them. Later a group of Daoist priests came to this place. The Daoist priests took away those malicious spirits, and those who committed suicide and wished to escape this state and disappear were exterminated, leaving only him who did not want to leave.

He did not wish to be saved by the ritual, and the old Daoist did not force him, merely saying, "Each person has their own destiny," before leaving.

Time trickled by, and even though he knew somewhere in the dark that by causing just one or two deaths, he could be freed from his bonds and leave this place, he never did it. On the contrary, he felt distressed by a few unsuccessful attempts to prevent safety accidents in the amusement park.

Even if it was because of the presence of the little beast that he had to drive away the guests, Phoenix Fairy would just make a few scary faces, reverting to his normal appearance when the children cried, never going too far.

Of course, he too longed for freedom. Every time he repeated the pain of death, he thought how good it would be if he could regain his freedom.

Now, freedom was within his reach. The Little Bun in front of him seemed to be slashing away at something with her Treasure Sword.

Phoenix Fairy knew that those were the invisible chains that bound him. According to that voice, as soon as Little Bun cut through the chains, he would regain his freedom! He could go and see the world that had regained peace, see if the descendants of the guests he knew lived well.

This thought seemed to make Phoenix Fairy hear the sound of his heart beating from when he was alive.
