Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 313: Chapter 313 Heavenly Master 20

Under normal circumstances, when a ghost wants to harm someone, the Yin Qi and resentful energy would spread everywhere, and it would not specifically restrain its Yin Resentment Qi, nor would it care if its resentful energy would harm the innocent. But the ghost haunting Wang Wei’s house actually restrained its Yin Resentment Qi, clearly not wanting to harm the innocent!

This is interesting. Since it doesn’t want to harm the innocent, it indicates that this ghost is not a malicious one. Yet, it clings to Wang Wei’s family relentlessly. Situ Shuangshuang feels that this ghost probably holds a grudge against someone in Wang Wei’s family!

Wang Wei, standing aside, watched Situ Shuangshuang, who was assessing from outside the door but didn’t enter, looked around together. It’s still the same house, isn’t it? Nothing special! He couldn’t help but curiously ask, ”Hmm, Master, does my house have something peculiar?”

Situ Shuangshuang shook her head without answering, stepped forward, and pushed the door to enter the courtyard. As soon as she entered, she couldn’t help but frown—the resentful energy inside this courtyard was too dense!

Previously, when she subdued Little Shun, the resistance from the resentful energy was like water, not very strong. But here, the resentful energy was so dense it felt like glue, making it difficult to even take a step.

Situ Shuangshuang felt a little annoyed; her cultivation level was still lacking, which was why the resentful energy affected her. If her mana were high enough, she could move through any resentful energy as if walking on flat ground, unaffected.

Wang Wei, lacking mana, couldn’t feel the resistance that Situ Shuangshuang felt. But after entering the main door, he subconsciously bent over a bit, and since entering he felt exhausted, wanting to sleep soundly. This was a new problem he developed since the haunting—wanting to sleep the moment he got home.

Wang Wei didn’t know that his reaction was entirely because of the dense resentful energy in the house. Although resentful energy can’t be seen by ordinary people, it doesn’t mean it has no effect on them. On the contrary, the impact is even greater.

Long-term exposure to resentful energy makes a person mentally exhausted, constantly sleepy yet never rested enough, unknowingly draining the body, even more troublesome than the misfortune-bringing Yin Qi.

Situ Shuangshuang took out a Breaking Barrier Talisman, lit it with Palm Fire, and a flash of white light appeared, rapidly dissolving the surrounding Yin Qi and resentful energy. The resistance she felt while walking disappeared, and even Wang Wei beside her felt refreshed, no longer tired and sleepy.

Situ Shuangshuang circled the house but didn’t see any ghosts, however, she did find the place where the resentful energy was the thickest.

Wang Wei’s old house has two courtyards: a large and spacious front courtyard, though bare, and a smaller back courtyard with a solitary shaded small pagoda tree. The source of the resentful energy was at the roots of this pagoda tree.

Situ Shuangshuang asked Wang Wei to fetch a shovel, then led him to the small pagoda tree, instructing him to dig along the roots but without harming them.

Wang Wei didn’t know what Situ Shuangshuang intended to do but thinking about the scene he witnessed earlier, he felt that such a master wouldn’t fool him. So, he started digging earnestly.

Wang Wei, not unfamiliar with labor since he experienced hardship as a child. But after years of luxury as his business expanded, his body was no longer suited for labor, especially hard labor like this. After only a few shovels, he was panting heavily and wanted to sit down to rest.

Situ Shuangshuang frowned, the efficiency was too slow! Seeing Wang Wei was almost rested and ready to continue digging, Situ Shuangshuang took out a Strength Talisman, lit it, and slapped it onto Wang Wei’s body!

Wang Wei had no idea that Situ Shuangshuang placed a Strength Talisman on him. He held a small folding spade and, without proper control, used too much force with one shovel! The entire spade got buried in the ground! Only a small piece of the iron handle was left sticking out.

Wang Wei, seeing the spade stuck in the ground, didn’t dwell on how his strength suddenly increased. His first reaction was to grab the small exposed piece and pull hard. With one excessive pull, he yanked out a large chunk with both the spade and the soil, then stumbled backward and fell on his butt!

Just as Wang Wei fell on his butt and was about to get up, he heard a man’s voice shouting from afar, ”Dad! How did you fall?”

Along with the voice came a twenty-something handsome man running over to help Wang Wei up from the ground, worriedly asking, ”Did you hurt yourself? Do you need to see a doctor? Dad, how did you fall?” This concerned man hovering around Wang Wei was his son, Wang Jianyong.

Wang Wei pushed away Wang Jianyong’s helping hand, shook his head, and said, ”Just tripped, it’s nothing! You’re making a fuss over nothing.”

By this time, Wang Wei had already realized his unusual strength. To prove it wasn’t an illusion, he bent to pick up the spade from the ground and tried digging again under the pagoda tree!

Sure enough, what used to be a struggle where he could barely scrape off a little dirt now felt like cutting through tofu, as he effortlessly scooped a large piece of soil with the spade!

Wang Wei immediately understood that Situ Shuangshuang had helped him because he was struggling with the labor. Feeling reinvigorated, Wang Wei energetically dug one shovel after another!

Wang Jianyong, standing aside, watched in silence as his father inexplicably dug in their backyard. He approached Wang Wei, ”Dad, why are you digging in our yard like this? I brought some friends home to play today, and you should meet them!”

Hearing that his son brought friends, Wang Wei paused his digging to look up. Sure enough, beside his son Wang Jianyong, was a young man, dressed in designer clothes and handsome-looking, watching curiously.

Wang Jianyong saw that his father had looked up, quickly introduced, ”Dad, this is my college classmate Duan Chengming; he’s very bold and came to our house specifically to play!”

At this moment, the handsome young man smiled politely and took the initiative to greet Wang Wei, ”Hello, Uncle. I’m your son’s good friend. I’ll be disturbing you these couple of days, so please don’t mind, Uncle.”

Wang Wei gave a perfunctory response, slightly frowning. What’s fun about their place? This house was just an ordinary urban village dwelling, nothing special, not some historical site or alley to explore or play archaeology, except for the recent haunting!

Thinking about the haunting, Wang Wei felt a bit annoyed with Wang Jianyong. Their family was already being tormented by the ghost, barely surviving, and at this time, how could they bring outsiders home! If they also got unlucky and got entangled with the ghost, wouldn’t it be their family’s fault?
