Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 319: Chapter 319: Heavenly Master 26

The mouth being stuffed like this hurt a lot, but what hurt more was the area around her heart, burning painfully as if it were on fire, unbearable! Yet what terrified Cui Cui the most was Chen Lijuan standing in front of her, trembling with a blood-stained kitchen knife held high!

Chen Lijuan’s face was filled with fear and panic, but within that fear and panic was also a trace of ruthlessness! She held the blood-stained kitchen knife high, with fresh red blood dripping steadily from the tip, dropping onto Cui Cui’s extremely frightened face!

Cui Cui was dumbfounded with fear; she squirmed desperately, begging Chen Lijuan with her eyes not to hurt her! She wanted to call for help, to plead, but her mouth was tightly blocked, and she could only make small, meaningless whimpering sounds from her throat!

Seeing Cui Cui wake up, Chen Lijuan’s hand holding the kitchen knife trembled incessantly, tears streamed from her eyes, her voice quivering as she said to Cui Cui: ”Cui Cui, I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I tried to let you go! I tried to send you back! You wouldn’t go! You wouldn’t leave! Don’t blame me, Cui Cui! Don’t blame me! Aunt Chen didn’t have a choice! If I had a choice, I wouldn’t hurt you, Cui Cui! Don’t blame me! Don’t blame me...”

Chen Lijuan kept repeating like a mantra ”don’t blame me” while tremblingly reaching for a towel with one hand, and then shuffled restlessly as she covered Cui Cui’s eyes, which were filled with terror and pleading, staring blankly at her!

The intense pain in her chest continued, and Cui Cui could feel Chen Lijuan continually chopping at the area around her heart with the kitchen knife. Perhaps because her eyes were covered, her senses became even sharper!

Cui Cui could sense every slash of Chen Lijuan’s knife on her body, even feeling the sensation of the cold blade being scraped against her wound by the trembling of the one holding the knife, clear and distinct!

Fear, the inescapable fear of facing death! Pain! The pain! The unbearable pain of having one’s chest torn open alive!!!

The skin was torn open! Bones were hacked through! Then her still-beating heart was grasped by icy cold hands and violently pulled out of her chest alive!!

The heart-extraction pain made Cui Cui’s whole body convulse! Painful! So painful! Painful to the point of being unbearable!

The heavy smell of blood filled her nostrils, the smell of her own fresh blood, the towel covering her eyes was already stained red with blood, everything in front of her eyes turned a dense bloody red!

Cui Cui didn’t know how long she was in pain until she finally felt relieved when she couldn’t feel the pain anymore! She felt herself floating lightly upwards, her vision returned, and the first thing she saw was her own mutilated body, her heart gouged out, soaking in a pool of blood!

Beside the corpse, holding her heart in a daze, sitting dumbfounded on the ground was Chen Lijuan! Cui Cui knew she was already dead, dead at the hands of Chen Lijuan, who usually showed her kindness, someone she trusted even more than her own mother!

Cui Cui frantically wailed and cried, pouncing onto Chen Lijuan, biting, kicking, and clawing! But it was useless, she was already dead, no matter how much she mourned and cried, Chen Lijuan couldn’t hear her, no matter how hard she bit and kicked, Chen Lijuan couldn’t feel it!

Cui Cui could only watch helplessly as Chen Lijuan wrapped her heart in plastic wrap and put it in the fridge, and then watched as Chen Lijuan shivering washed away the bloodstains. As the bloodstains disappeared, Chen Lijuan’s trembling lessened, and her expression changed from panic to calmness!

Cui Cui didn’t understand, how could a person do this, murder with tears, and then swiftly calm down to handle her corpse, was she born a devil? Didn’t she feel any guilt towards her?

She watched Chen Lijuan dig a large hole in the backyard, then bury her body, and plant a locust tree over it as a cover for her digging in the backyard.

Cui Cui drifted around following Chen Lijuan constantly, cursing Chen Lijuan with hate and venom that she’d die a terrible death! Then tirelessly, she bit and kicked at Chen Lijuan, until Cui Cui saw her gaunt and exhausted mother finding Chen Lijuan to inquire about her whereabouts.

Cui Cui watched Chen Lijuan put on the face of a good friend, sympathetically leading her mother to believe that her disappearance was due to her eloping with a man!

Previously, Cui Cui had stirred up a rumor to annoy her mother about her plan to elope with a man, causing a big uproar that nearly everyone living nearby knew. This resulted in, despite her school and acquaintances never having seen her boyfriend, everyone firmly believing it was a secret relationship, and nobody suspected that instead of eloping, she was brutally murdered!

Cui Cui’s parents searched far and wide for the missing and allegedly eloped Cui Cui, Cui Cui wanted to follow her parents, but her resentful energy was too strong, she couldn’t leave her bones too far, unable to follow her parents away, Cui Cui could only continue to resentfully and unwillingly follow Chen Lijuan who killed her!

Three days after Cui Cui was killed, Chen Lijuan’s husband Wang Wei and her son Wang Jianyong returned, and at that time Wang Jianyong still appeared dazed, whatever he did seemed slower than others, he just didn’t look smart.

Cui Cui watched as Chen Lijuan took out the heart, which she had kept frozen in the fridge after extracting it alive from her chest, sliced it into thin slices, divided it into three portions, set aside two portions, and made a soup with one portion. After the soup was done, Chen Lijuan burned a talisman, mixed the ash into the soup, and then served this one-third heart soup to Wang Jianyong.

One serving a day, after drinking it for three consecutive days, Cui Cui watched as Wang Jianyong suddenly became intelligent, his grades soared, and he was no longer dazed, finally understanding why Chen Lijuan cut open her chest and took her heart away alive!

But what good would knowing the truth do, even if she made the motion of gouging out her heart around Chen Lijuan every day, it was useless, she was just a ghost, incapable of causing any harm to the living.

Until one day, Cui Cui accidentally discovered that as long as she returned to her own bones and leaned against the locust tree planted over them, her power would grow, and gradually, she began to influence Chen Lijuan, making Chen Lijuan see her form, inducing hallucinations in her!

Chen Lijuan, terrified by Cui Cui’s ghost, was mentally tense and disoriented every day, which filled Cui Cui with frenzied joy, feeling that her time for revenge was near!

But before Cui Cui could take revenge, Wang Wei made money from his business, bought a big house, and moved Chen Lijuan and Wang Jianyong away, leaving Cui Cui who was bound to her own remains, resentful yet stuck in this house!

As she stayed in the village, watching her parents drain their savings trying to find her, left old and dependent on nothing, Cui Cui’s hatred towards Chen Lijuan only grew, and she also lamented her own childish stupidity!
