My journey to Konoha

"Don't worry, I won't be involved in the affairs of Master Chu Yue anymore." Before Kikyo could speak, Chun spoke first.

"Hmm?" Kikyo obviously didn't expect Tsubaki's words, and opened her eyes and stared at her.

"I don't want to cause any more trouble to Chu Yue Venerable..." Chun lowered her head, "Fifty years have passed, and many things have changed... Although I long to, I can no longer stand shoulder to shoulder with Chu Yue Venerable."

"Why is it so?" the kind-hearted Yanzhu asked first.

"My soul has been possessed by a demon, my heart is full of jealousy, and I have committed many mistakes..."

"Chun, this..." Chu Yue wanted to say something but was interrupted by Chun.

"Anyway, this is the truth. I must pay for my mistake." Tsubaki said firmly.

"......" Kikyo said nothing more.

Yanzhu, Jieluo and Shenwu were all confused and could only remain silent.

Finally, Chu Yue sighed, "Chun, you don't have to be too hard on yourself. Everyone in the world makes mistakes. No one is perfect. In fact, each of us has a past, and it is not glorious."

Chun lowered her head and remained silent.

Chu Yue went on, "Jila, you can sense that it is a demon. Before it met me, it was naturally doing demonic things. Kikyo, although her past was enviable, she developed resentment towards Inuyasha due to the instigation of others. Enju and Kanna..." Chu Yue paused. She didn't know Enju's past, and Kanna hadn't even started her past!

"Venerable Chu Yue, I understand what you mean..." Chun said, "But I am different from them..."

Chu Yue was stunned, then fell into deep thought.

Indeed, Tsubaki is different from them. Tsubaki is still the most ordinary person, Kanna and Jieluo are monsters, and Yanzhu and Kikyo are undead. Monsters and humans have different values, and the resurrected Kikyo and Yanzhu, their time stays at the moment of death, and their thoughts at the time of death have a profound impact on them.

"So, Chun, what are your plans?" Feeling Chun's determination, Chu Yue stopped persuading her and just asked one question.

"I want to go to my master's Taoist temple and carry out his last wish... as a way of atonement..." Chun replied.

"Going back to the Taoist temple..." Chu Yue said, "Okay... I'll take you there tomorrow..."

"Um……"

That night, Kikyo and Jieluo did not look for Chuyue, and everyone was worried. Tsubaki's decision was unexpected, and everyone was thinking about their own things, except perhaps Shenwu...

The next morning, Chu Yue, Shen Wu and Chun were together in the courtyard, and everyone came to see them off.

"Okay, let's go." Chu Yue said, picked up Shen Wu and put him on her shoulders. Just as she was about to pick up Chun, Kikyo suddenly shouted, "Chun!"

"Huh?" Chun turned around.

Kikyo smiled and said, "Goodbye."

Chun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and responded, "Goodbye."

Chu Yue smiled, picked up Chun, and flew into the air.

……

The Taoist temple where the master is.

"We're here." Chu Yue put Chun down, and Shen Wu also jumped down.

“We’re here…” Chun looked at the Taoist temple and walked into it.

"Who is here?!" Two girls were standing at the door.

“Where do you think this is?”

"If you are a mortal, leave immediately; if you are a monster, don't blame us for being rude!"

"Haha." Chu Yue couldn't help but laugh.

"Get out of the way!" Chun took out the talisman from her arms, "I am the witch Chun, I come here to practice."

The two girls looked at each other, made way and let the three people in.

"It hasn't changed at all..." Chun sighed.

Behind him, the two girls were half-kneeling on the ground.

“My name is Sakura.”

“My name is Peony.”

"Are you two the only ones here?" Chun asked.

"We are the master's last disciples." Ying replied.

"I see..." Chun turned around and looked towards the Taoist temple.

"Is Senior Sister Chun also Master's disciple?"

"I'm sorry to ask, but how old are you?"

“You look very young.”

"I have received strict training." Chun said, "If you practice hard, you can do the same... But it's much easier said than done..."

"Why did Senior Sister Chun come back here?" Mudan asked.

"Master is no longer here, right?" Chun asked instead of answering.

"Yes... he passed away three years ago..." Mudan replied.

"Really... he has passed away..." Chun lowered her head, immersed in sorrow.

"Please accept my condolences, Senior Sister..." the two witches said in unison.

"Okay, Chun... don't be sad anymore." Chu Yue came over to comfort her.

"Hmm..." Chun looked up at Ying and Mudan, "Then, from today on, I will be the one managing this Taoist temple."

"Ah? Senior sister, you want to manage the Taoist temple?"

"Yeah." Chun nodded.

"Will Senior Sister also teach us magic?"

"Of course. You are Master's disciples, and you must not dishonor Master's name."

The two girls smiled at each other and said in unison, "Yes!"

"Venerable Chu Yue, this Four Souls Jade is now handed over to you." Chun took out the Four Souls Jade and handed it to Chu Yue.

"Haha, there's no rush for that." Chu Yue said with a smile, "Without the Four Souls Jade, you will get old. And..."

"Hmm?" Chun asked.

"It's just right. Inuyasha and his men will definitely track down the Four Souls Jewel. Let them come over first. I see that Sakura and Mudan have no experience fighting against demons, so let them deal with Inuyasha and his men."

"But..." Tsubaki immediately thought of Inuyasha's strength, "They have no chance of winning against Inuyasha!"

"It doesn't matter." Chu Yue said with a smile, "I'm still here!"

"That's... okay." Chun thought about it and nodded, "I'll leave it to you, Master Chu Yue."

"Um."

"Listen." Chun turned to Ying and Mudan, "Several demons will come here in a while, and they will break into the Taoist temple by force. This is your first task, to stop them." Chun carefully used the word "stop" instead of "eliminate".

"Yes!" Ying and Mudan immediately nodded in response.

"Okay, go and get ready." After Chun said that, he turned and walked into the house, followed by Chu Yue and Shen Wu.

Looking at the altar in front of her, Tsubaki fell into memories again...

"It's been sixty years..." Chun couldn't help but say.

"Really..." Chu Yue walked to the front, "It seems that the master was quite concerned about you back then..."

"Hmm..." Chun nodded, "Master cares about me a lot...but I let him down..."

"That's not the case." Chu Yue said with a smile, "Master will be pleased with this now."

"Thank you, Master Chu Yue..."

"Oh, by the way, without the Four Souls Jade you will age. I will teach you a spell to keep you young!"

"Is there really such a spell?" Chun looked at Chu Yue in surprise.
