Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 521: Soul Recovery

The voice was from a female, and it was soft and calm but still held enough authority that could not be mistaken. It was coming from the yellow soul flame that everyone calls her Madam Wei. 

"Still not leaving?!" Madam Wei said her voice now laced with annoyance. 

After Madam Wei said that, most of the flames had no choice but to leave reluctantly. 

There were still two floating spirit flames that stayed, which were the yellow and the blue flame. 

A deep heavy sigh was heard in the room after the others left. "We are all being impatient to leave. It is still most important to preserve life." The blue flame voice was heard. This blue flame was mostly called Uncle Chi, and he was a priest from a spirit tribe. 

Then she saw the blue flame slowly changing its shape into a silhouette of a man. The shape then solidifies into an older man with a white beard who has a gentle smile on his face. It was an illusion of magic-using its soul. 

Madam Wei snorted, "Show off. You are the only one who can do that Chi Ma. Don't make me envious." She said with disdain. 

Chi Ma chuckled, "Looking at flames to talk to all the time may make our Miss crazy. What will happen if she arrived at the Mortal Domain? She may think all flames are ghost-like us!"He said to Madam Wei before speaking at her, "Miss, you are our only hope. A soul from a living body was still the strongest. The higher your cultivation, the stronger your soul will be. However, if your soul was injured, it would take so many years to heal. On rare occasions, it won't be able to recover at all. Despite that being rare, we still cannot gamble on it. So always be very careful." 

"Our Miss bloodline is divine! Her soul energy will surely get replenished as soon as possible!" Madam Wei said. The yellow flame then circled around her. "Have you really not seen any glimpse of the outside? Was it just plain black void?" She asked curiously. 

With pursed lips, she shook her head. She did not tell them that she seemed to have seen the outside world because, in her heart, she did not want them to expect too much and eventually be devastated when she failed. 

"I can try again" She replied softly before she sat and crossed her legs as if ready to meditate. 

"Don't do it now, Miss. It can wait. As I said earlier, we have waited for so many years, and waiting some more won't make a difference." Madam Wei said seriously. 

"That is correct. Miss, please make sure to recover completely. We will watch out for the cracks and send your toys out there as much as we can so you could tamper with later. Do not worry. I will make sure to help you every step of the way later." Uncle Chi Ma said with assurance. 

When she was left alone, her bland expression immediately showed traces of guilt. 

There were countless of pawns sent out for information, and most of them were things. Those pawns only have her spiritual imprints so she could track them in the future. If she was not able to track them, these paws have magic spells that automatically return any things it saw and heard when it was utterly destroyed. 

At first, she told everyone everything that she saw. The more she tells them about it the more she noticed them being impatient to leave the place. However, she was not so confident to be able to do so completely. 

The soul flames were generals, and she was not. 

After noticing the generals' impatience, she started to filter some information that she received from destroyed pawns. 

However, she did not stop looking for ways to be free with them. It became her only goal in life. 

Eventually, she tried to create a pawn with her own soul fragment and sent it outside their confinement. It was a very painful process, but she endured and managed to do it. Because of this as well, she was able to see a different world. 

To continue doing so, she knew that recovery was very important. 

***

Since her recovery could not be compared to anyone else, thus she did not know if it was slow or fast enough. 

An unknown number of days had already passed when she opened finally opened her eyes. She felt her soul was now completely healed. 

Instead of trying to reach out to her pawn again, she left her room and looked for the soul flames of the generals. 

She stepped out of her room and walked on the stone corridor that, if not because of the torches won't be bright enough to see the path. 

It was not actually needed since she grew up in the place and could find her path with her eyes closed. 

The passageway was narrow and long, but it did not take much time to be able to reach the end. She then arrived at a wide-open circular floor that seems to connect to all passageway. 

There were more than eleven passageways. Each one had rooms that some of the flame souls occupy. 

The floor was made of jade stone and painted with white. There were intricately designed symbols in blue as well on the entire floor surface, forming a magical circle. What if she tried to step on it now?
