The Charm of Soul Pets Chapter 1593: Princess Jinrou Wakes Up

Chu Mu sat on the side. As he looked at her, he thought about the past.
She would awaken, and would no longer be untouchable like before.
He could smell the fragrance from her body, could touch her delicate face, and kiss her bewitching lips.
When she was in her spectral form, she enjoyed hugging Chu Mu from behind. And now in the future, Chu Mu would be able to truly feel this sudden hug.
His thoughts unconsciously began to float off.
……
Chu Mu silently kept watch. He wanted the first thing she saw when she woke up to be him.
If he cultivated, he would do it next to her. The Devil Soul territory was full of a lively spirit aura, and cultivating here would increase cultivation speed by a bit.
He closed his eyes, and entered his own mental world.
He didn’t know how long he spent cultivating. There was no day or night in Nightmare Holy Region. Each time he opened his eyes, he would wondrously find that Princess Jinrou’s hair had grown a bit.
Her body that had been preserved in ice was slowly gaining warmth, and her cheeks were beginning to show color.
Chu Mu knew that she was going to awaken soon, and that her soul had merged with her body.
When he looked at her, her body had life force again. It was no longer icy cold and devoid of life.
Chu Mu closed his eyes again, and continued his cultivation.
Chu Mu had absorbed too much grievance aura in this war. If he didn’t purify the grievance aura in time, it would influence his mood. Indeed, the grievance aura contained many people’s memories which had sorrow, anger, hatred, and too many other negative emotions. If he couldn’t withstand it, it would seep into his emotions and influence his character.
Moreover, this energy in Chu Mu’s body wasn’t very stable. Chu Mu needed to refine it into his own energy.
Chu Mu only planned on making a quick trip to Evil Temple. However, he was a bit unwilling to leave. He wanted to be the only person there when Princess Jinrou woke up.
……
The Devil Souls were like small fairies that lithely flew and danced in between the rocky mountains.
The creatures living in Nightmare Holy Region would never attack the Devil Souls. In fact, there were many creatures who intentionally protected these creatures that had no fighting strength.
The Devil Soul and Nightmare species had a symbiotic relationship.
The Nightmare species had extremely fast reproduction rates, and the Devil Soul’s spirited nature would be able to raise the souls of the Nightmares.
On the other hand, the Devil Souls’ reproduction rates were very slow, and they were very weak. They needed the protection of a powerful and trustworthy species.
Princess Jinrou’s ice altar was located at the center of the Devil Soul tribe. Her body had been placed here after she became their queen.
As if they could feel some special life aura, there was a group of Devil Souls circling above the ice altar today. They were letting out melodious cries as if they were greeting something.
Chu Mu was still sitting there with his eyes closed, and focused on cultivating.
He didn’t notice the abnormality of the Devil Souls. While in Nightmare Holy Region, he didn’t need to release his soul remembrance, because there was nowhere safer than this.
The joyously melodious cries of the Devil Souls were like a song.
The song was mellow and lovely. It also contained some special magic power.
Unwittingly, halos of holy and beautiful light emerged around the ice altar. The halos of light made the woman silently lying on the ice altar seem even more pure and beautiful…
The halos of light illuminated Princess Jinrou’s face.
She had a peerlessly beautiful complexion. In the past, she enjoyed wearing veils. It wasn’t because she wanted to hide this peerless beauty. Instead, she only wanted to show it to the person she liked the most.
She had told Chu Mui that wearing a veil was a habit.
But this habit came from a story. In this story, the woman, after the age of fourteen, always wore a veil. She would only take it off when she met the person she liked.
When this girl would take off her veil and show her beautiful face, the nearby boys would probably be happy, because the girl had likely fallen for one of them. At this point, a tacit connection would truly exist between the two people, and it could be observed for a lifetime.
This was a story Princess Jinrou had heard at a very young age from her mother.
After her mother left, she acted in accordance with this story and from the age of fourteen, began wearing a veil.
When in Tianxia Realm, many people heard that Princess Jinrou had peerless beauty. However, very few had actually seen it.
Chu Mu wasn’t able to detect these details about Princess Jinrou’s, nor did he notice when she had taken off her veil…
A gentle light illuminated her face. Her lips grew ampler. Amidst the pink was a slight smirch of pale white, making it look beautiful. Even without any lipstick, it couldn’t help but make one want to go up and kiss those lips.
These beautiful lips faintly opened as a fragrant breath that came out from her mouth.
A deep breath and an exhale. A deep breath and an exhale.
Her chest began to undulate as she breathed. Her arms, fingers, stomach, and legs began to show signs of movement.
Right now, she was a sleeping woman that looked at peace and was silently beautiful.
Gradually, her eyelashes began to tremble and she opened her eyes, slowly.
These eyes were pure like the snow on a mountain and carried a trace of confusion in them.
She blinked her eyes and as she lay there, she saw the Devil Souls flying twenty meters above her.
Each Devil Soul was as innocent as a child. They circled in wreath shapes, celebrating her awakening.
Princess Jinrou looked at their adorableness and her eyes smiled as they formed a beautiful crescent moon.
She subconsciously tried to get her body to float up…
“That’s strange.” Princess Jinrou let out a confused murmur.
She felt that her body had become heavier. In the past, she only needed to think about it, and she would be able to fly very high in the air. However, today, flying was very strenuous.
When she shifted her body, a cold feeling suddenly coursed through.
Her body had been rested against ice all this time. Initially, she wasn’t able to feel anything abnormal from the ice. However, when she shifted her body, a cold feeling coursed through her whole body.
Princess Jinrou placed her hand on the icy place she was lying on. Soon, coldness passed through her palm.
As she propped her body up, her hair was strewn and a few strands brushed by her cheek. It was an itchy feeling.
“Hu~~~~~”
A cool breeze blew past, faintly lifting her hair. She noticed the cleansing feeling of the comfortable wind brushing past her face.
“This…”
Princess Jinrou stretched out her hand and felt her hair. Then, she felt her body…
It was real! A very real feeling!
This wasn’t a spectral body. She was no longer transparent and illusory. She had genuine skin and warmth.
Moreover, she was breathing/
Each breath was distinct, and she could smell something distinct.
Princess Jinrou looked at herself with a hint of disbelief.
“I… I was truly resurrected? I was truly resurrected??” Princess Jinrou felt that she was dreaming.
Princess Jinrou had had countless dreams of waking up with a corporeal body. These fleeting feelings of nostalgia were incomparably real in her dreams.
However, every time she suddenly woke up and saw her illusory body, she would descend back into a sense of loss.
This time, it was also very real. In fact, it was so real that she was unable to distinguish if this was a dream or reality.
She turned around and discovered Chu Mu sitting next to her like a statue, unmoving.
His face was serious and cold. However, those who actually knew Chu Mu knew that his character was actually very good. There were times when they could even make fun of him.
Princess Jinrou looked at Chu Mu. An unspeakable feeling of happiness emerged in her heart.
She didn’t want to think about whether this was all real. Even if it was a dream, she had her own blood and flesh here. She ought to enjoy a dream that brought her happiness like this.
Princess Jinrou slowly stood up.
She wanted to walk, but her body was very stiff and sluggish.
Perhaps it was due to not moving for a long time, but her body was a bit rigid. She probably had to get used to it again.
“This dream is very interesting,” Princess Jinrou muttered to herself.
In her previous dreams, she was able to move freely like normal. However, this time, her body was rigid.
According to normal logic, after sleeping for so many years, a situation like this should occur when she woke up.
Yes, yes, this dream was more logical than the previous ones.
However, speaking of her previous dreams, Princess Jinrou couldn't remember anything that happened that defied logic. But every time she woke up, she would feel the dream was very absurd.
Therefore, after she woke up this time, she would also feel it was absurd.
Princess Jinrou slowly got used to her body and even felt the blood flowing to each part of her body. It was like a formation slowly being activated by energy.
She tried one thing at a time. First, she tried moving her fingers.
Eventually, she tried walking.
She walked a circle around Chu Mu and from those initial difficult first steps, she was able to break into a jog.
These most basic movements may have been senseless to many people. However, to Princess Jinrou who had experienced a deep sleep and a state of half death for many years, being able to experience these feelings of being alive was incomparably precious.
After being able to move as she pleased, she discovered that a Devil Soul had flown next to Chu Mu and was ostensibly trying to wake up Chu Mu.
Princess Jinrou placed her finger on her lips, telling the small Devil Soul not to disturb Chu Mu.
The small Devil Soul tactfully moved away while Princess Jinrou carefully walked up to the silently cultivating Chu Mu. She widened her beautiful eyes and moved close to Chu Mu’s serious and resolute face, carefully examining him.
Princess Jinrou was like a small curious cat. She slowly moved her lips closer and secretly kissed Chu Mu’s lips.
It was warm and bitter. She didn’t know who had told her that a kiss would feel sweet.
Perhaps it was secret kisses like this that were bitter?
Thus, she wondered if she should awaken him.
Thinking about Chu Mu’s surprised and happy expression when he woke up and saw her, a smile rose on her face. She was slightly looking forward to it but was also slightly nervous. It was as if her heart rate had sped up.
