Chapter 1864 - Master of Psychology
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said angrily, “Huh?! Your sister gained weight! How can a treasured sword like me gain weight?”
“...” Song Shuhang.
Sorry, my sister hasn’t been born yet.
Also, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, you’ve really grown larger. Before you left, you were still about the size of one-handed swords, but now that you’re back, you’re as large as greatswords. You’ve grown much beyond your previous size. What exactly did you just go through?
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword continued, “I’ve evolved, understand?” Afterward, a pair of pure white arms drilled out of the spatial gate, and opened it a bit further.
“!!!” Song Shuhang.
F*ck, what kind of terrifying style is this?! Its crossguard has become a pair of slender white hands?
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, are you sure that you evolved, and not demonized? A treasured sword having a pair of arms for its crossguard looks to be more in style with an evil sword of a demon king “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, I think that your old model looked a lot better,” Song Shuhang sincerely said. If possible, I feel that it would be best if Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword returned to its original state.
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword’s figure paused, but it chuckled after a while, and said, “You don’t think I look handsome now?”
Song Shuhang quickly said, “No, it’s not that, but your style feels like it has gone a bit off track.”
When Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword heard this, instead of being angry, it said happily, “I also feel that I look pretty ugly right now.”
Song Shuhang said, “I didn’t mean ugly. It’s just that you look more like an evil weapon. In fact, after looking at you in consideration of that, I feel that you look devilishly handsome.”
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword laughed, and said, “No, I’m ugly. I admit it myself, especially my sword hilt. You’ll know when you see my head later... It came as a surprise even to me that this world can have such an ugly sword hilt!”
“...” Song Shuhang. Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, have you given up on yourself?
How can I comfort Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword and give him confidence?
How to encourage a depressed divine weapon? Waiting online, very urgent...
Should I give Senior three consecutive instances of the (Saber-Nurturing Technique) to restore some of its spirits?
While Song Shuhang was in thought, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword squeezed out of the spatial gate little by little.
Past the pair of small white shoulders, there was a matching white neck.
It was honestly rather unbearable to look at.
As soon as Song Shuhang imagined how it would look to hold Scarlet Heaven Sword as it was swung around, he felt his image of Scarlet Heaven collapse.
“Isn’t my neck beautiful? This is the part of my body that I’m proudest of at the moment. And then- Finally, onto the most exciting part of my body!” Senior Scarlet Heaven then forcefully pushed itself out of the spatial gate.
“Little friend Shuhang, tell me honestly, isn’t my head handsome?” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said triumphantly. I don’t believe that you can bring yourself to say it’s ugly!
“...” Song Shuhang.
As Scarlet Heaven Sword said that, Song Shuhang saw that its head was very similar to his own face—at least 50% similar.
With such a head, how could he possibly say that it was ‘ugly’?
Su Clan’s Sixteen blinked, and said, “Mm-hm, very handsome.”
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword laughed, and gave Su Clan’s Sixteen a thumbs-up. “Little Sixteen truly has an eye for appreciation.”
It looked at Song Shuhang again. “Shuhang, is it handsome?”
With a stifled heart, Song Shuhang said, “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, why is it my
face?”
Scarlet Heaven Sword narrowed his eyes, smiled wickedly, and said, “Perhaps it’s because you used the (Saber-Nurturing Technique) on me so much?”
Song Shuhang asked tentatively, “Heavens, can you change your face?”
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “No, Scarlet Heaven is very satisfied with my current form.”
“...” Song Shuhang.
Why is Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven satisfied with this form? Does Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven like fighting others while holding a neck in his hand?
If Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword is always going to be in this form, and Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven gets used to it being in this form... Then in the future, when Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven runs into an enemy, it would be like I was by his side as he grabs my neck and fights with his enemy...
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “I’m just joking with you. My evolution should not be complete yet. I feel that I can still continue to evolve and take on a different form in the future. I just wanted to startle you by showing you my current form.”
After saying that, its sword body converged, and it returned to its original form.
At this moment, Soft Feather ran over, and said seriously, “I think that Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword’s current evolved form is a lot more interesting.”
Ordinary things were not attractive to her. Instead, she found herself liking the sword with white arms, a white neck, and a head that looked like Song Shuhang’s.
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Soft Feather, your aesthetics are too wild.”
Soft Feather giggled. “Senior, did you call me for something?”
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said quickly, “Let’s discuss the plan of the ‘incarnation of the demon’. During the period when my main body and Scarlet Heaven have to stay out of the limelight, I want to make a clone and stay in the main world.”
“Good idea,” said Song Shuhang.
Soft Feather frowned, and said, “However, there isn’t much time. I need time to make a plan for Senior.”
Su Clan’s Sixteen pondered for a moment, and then said, “We have the ‘Time Box’.”
“Yes, Little Sixteen is indeed smart. I also thought of the same thing. Soft Feather, you and I can enter the box, and we can complete the plan there. Anyway, it’s the energy of the Great Southern Emperor that we’ll be extracting, so there’s no need to be shy!” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword laughed loudly.
Soft Feather giggled, and said, “If I have enough time, then it won’t be a problem.”
“Then I will have Pavilion Master Chu assist you,” said Song Shuhang. He then opened an entrance to the Inner World, and let Scarlet Heaven Sword and Soft Feather enter. At the same time, he transferred the drunk Lady Onion into the Inner World as it was likely that Pavilion Master Chu was going to need the help of Lady Onion’s body to activate the Time Box.
With this, Soft Feather, Scarlet Heaven Sword, and Lady Onion all entered Song Shuhang’s Inner World.
When Scarlet Heaven Sword entered, it suddenly thought of something, and said to Song Shuhang, “Shuhang... When I leave my inner demon clone by your side, don’t you even think about turning it into food. Your (Heavenly Tribulation Grand Banquet) makes me a little worried.”
Song Shuhang replied, “Don’t worry, Senior. I’m not that starved for food.”
“Are you looking down on my inner demon clone? Are you trying to say that it isn’t of good enough quality to be eaten?” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said with dissatisfaction in its voice.
“...” Song Shuhang.
What is going on with Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword today?
“It might be having difficulty adjusting because it just had its gender awakened,” Senior Turtle, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said. “According to what I’ve learned in psychology, when Fellow Daoist Scarlet Heaven Sword evolved this time, it should have been a critical point when it became doubtful of its gender. From its arms and its neck, it clearly looks like it was supposed to be female, yet its head had taken on an appearance similar to yours. It now has both male and female characteristics, so that might have caused doubts within its mind, causing it to now act very awkwardly.”
Heavens, Senior Turtle’s analysis is so thorough!
All of those psychology books that Senior Turtle read were really not for nothing.
A turtle that understands people’s hearts, how terrifying!
Young Master Phoenix Slayer suddenly jumped to the table next to Song Shuhang while licking his little hand, and asked, “Then, Senior Turtle, can you analyze why Doudou is so caught up on Chu Chu?”
Doudou’s ‘Chu Chu Complex’ was extremely strange, and even Venerable Yellow Mountain had no idea when it had appeared.
“A mental illness like this where one acquires a strong fondness for a certain name is most likely due to the one in question having lacked something when they were a child. And since Doudou lacked ‘Chu Chu’ when he was a child, he eventually acquired a strong urge to love Chu Chu,” Senior Turtle said solemnly. “All of that was just made up by me.”
“...” Song Shuhang.
Senior Turtle continued, “I haven’t had much contact with Doudou, so how am I supposed to analyze him? Psychology isn’t a magical technique, there is a science to it.”
Young Master Phoenix Slayer responded, “I see.”
Fairy Lychee also came over, and asked curiously, “But why would Doudou want to give everything around him the name ‘Chu Chu’?”
Reasonably speaking, ‘Chu Chu Complex’ should only account for having a fondness for ‘Chu Chu’. It didn’t make sense that it would involve naming those around you ‘Chu Chu’ and then falling in love with them.
“Just now, he wanted me to name my first daughter Chu Chu. Naming a daughter is a parent’s business, and I refuse to let others interfere,” Song Shuhang said proudly.
Sage Monarch Spirit Butterfly in the distance silently approved of Song Shuhang’s words.
“Perhaps Doudou wants to marry Song Shuhang and give birth to a Chu Chu?” Young Master Phoenix Slayer suddenly said. “Don’t forget that there’s a chance that Doudou might be a girl, Senior Yellow Mountain even thought of marrying Doudou off.”
“!!!” Song Shuhang.
Young Master Phoenix Slayer, that is simply too frightening of a possibility to even think of.
After Young Master Phoenix Slayer said that, the fellow daoists in the surroundings turned their heads and stared at Venerable Yellow Mountain.
“Don’t worry, I won’t marry Doudou off to little friend Shuhang,” Venerable Yellow Mountain calmly said. “After all, Doudou is already engaged to someone.”
Doudou is engaged again? He’s going to get married once more?
“I see.” Senior Turtle nodded, and said, “Doudou is probably suffering from premarital phobia. Those with this disorder would choose to escape from their marriage or hope that their companions would also get married so that they can face what they deem horrors of marriage with their companions. Some others hope that their companions naturally bring up the topic of ‘marriage’ so that they could discuss it thoroughly and seek some comfort through the discussion. I feel that Doudou was trying to rope Song Shuhang into a discussion on marriage by talking about his daughter. Unfortunately for him, the discussion was interrupted midway.”
“...” Song Shuhang.
Meanwhile, outside Heavenly Field Island.
The Almighty Merchant had finished his call, and he had agreed on the location of the delivery with the person on the other side of the call.
When he ended the call, he turned his head and saw ‘Soft Feather’.
