Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 321: Chapter 321 Heavenly Master 28

The resentful energy of Cui Cui, released by Shuangshuang, was overwhelming. Her eyes were blood-red, her entire body engulfed in swirling black energy, and her features twisted. Her appearance morphed into the gruesome state she was in right after being brutally disemboweled in death. She looked at Shuangshuang with hatred, evidently blaming her for not allowing revenge!

Shuangshuang sighed lightly, aware of Cui Cui’s unfulfillment. So she tapped on the table and said calmly to Cui Cui, ”I know you don’t want your enemy to live, but you should think of your parents. Over the years, they’ve exhausted their family wealth searching for you. Now, without support in their old age, how will they live? I don’t need to spell it out for you.”

Cui Cui’s face, originally filled with intense hatred and resentment, froze for a moment at Shuangshuang’s words. The black aura on her face gradually faded, replaced by a deep sadness!

Seeing Cui Cui’s pitiful state, Shuangshuang felt an ache in her heart, but she continued, ”If Wang Wei wants to save Chen Lijuan, he will inevitably have to give your parents a substantial amount of money in exchange for a letter of forgiveness. This way, at least your parents can enjoy their old age in peace. I can arrange for you to meet with your parents. If you insist on Chen Lijuan’s death, just ensure your parents don’t issue a forgiveness letter under any circumstances. But if you want your parents to live well, let them accept Wang Wei’s money and provide the forgiveness. Take your time to think it over calmly!”

After speaking, Shuangshuang got up and left, leaving Cui Cui in the house, full of unwillingness but unable to refuse planning for her parents’ future.

Cui Cui was truly unwilling. She hated Chen Lijuan and wanted nothing more than to gnaw her bones and devour her flesh! But she couldn’t bear to see her parents live in misery!

Just as Cui Cui painfully decided to abandon her revenge, a chubby little spirit baby suddenly ran in through the wall from outside, pounced onto the table, holding a stack of black talismans, and exclaimed excitedly, ”Wow, sister really drew these talismans that can control people!”

This little spirit baby was naturally Little Shun. As he spoke, he glanced secretly at Cui Cui, but she was so absorbed in her painful thoughts that she didn’t notice Little Shun at all!

Little Shun’s eyes darted around, and he floated in front of Cui Cui, brandishing the talismans, saying, ”Sister, since we’re both ghosts, I’ll share these talismans with you. Let me tell you, these talismans are interesting. They’re Yin Talismans and can be used by us ghosts. Just stick them onto a human, and you can control them to do or say anything. It’s super fun!”

Hearing Little Shun’s words, Cui Cui, immersed in her grief and unwillingness, finally laid her eyes on the two black Yin Talismans in Little Shun’s hand. Her heart stirred, and she reached out, taking one of the Yin Talismans from Little Shun’s hand, pondering over the talisman in her hand.

Little Shun wasn’t bothered by Cui Cui’s distraction. He giggled, waved goodbye to Cui Cui, and ran out through the wall!

In the room, Cui Cui looked at the table where Little Shun had picked up the talismans. There, neatly arranged, was a whole stack of Yin Talismans identical to the one in her hand! Cui Cui remembered that it was right where Shuangshuang had tapped with her finger on the table moments earlier!

She floated over, picked up the stack of talismans, and placed them in the gaping wound in her chest, then swept her hand over the wound, and the split chest closed up again, storing the stack of talismans within her spirit!

In the kitchen outside, Shuangshuang was making sweet and sour ribs, keeping a small plate aside. Little Shun was sitting there, munching on the ribs with his mouth full of oil, boasting to Shuangshuang while eating, ”Sister, I did well, right!”

Shuangshuang’s response was to pat Little Shun’s head and offer another small plate of sweet and sour ribs as a reward. Merry Little Shun squinted his eyes with laughter! His tiny white teeth, pearl-like, peeked out!

After eating, when Shuangshuang returned to the room, she found that Cui Cui had completely calmed down. Seeing Shuangshuang enter, Cui Cui showed an expression of gratitude and gave a deep bow to Shuangshuang, ”Lord Heavenly Master, thank you. I’m willing to persuade my parents to issue the forgiveness letter. Please arrange for me to meet with my parents.”

Seeing Cui Cui calm down, Shuangshuang was gratified. She had a good impression of this female ghost who, despite her brutal death, balanced her grudges clearly and didn’t vent her resentment on the innocent.

Cui Cui’s parents were renting a rundown basement. They were about the same age as Wang Wei but appeared as aged elders, their bodies hunched, and their whole demeanor utterly exhausted and expressionless. Shuangshuang, unable to bear seeing people in such a state, directly opened their eyes, leaving Cui Cui’s spirit with them, and stepped out.

This rare family reunion lasted quite a while. Shuangshuang had arrived in the morning and waited until the sky was full of stars when Cui Cui, rubbing her eyes, finally emerged. The tears of a spirit are like moon-white pearls, cascading down like pearls and eventually dissipating into the air.

Shuangshuang saw that Cui Cui’s parents also had red and swollen eyes, evidently having cried for a long time, but the spirit of the two elders had improved! Even their originally hunched backs had straightened considerably. Both elders thanked Shuangshuang profusely again and then asked if Shuangshuang could look after their daughter.

Cui Cui’s resentful energy hadn’t dissipated, and unless Chen Lijuan died, she couldn’t enter the Underworld. This was why the two elders pleaded with Shuangshuang to take care of Cui Cui, and Shuangshuang nodded in agreement.

Cui Cui, somewhat hesitant, looked at Shuangshuang and said, ”Lord Heavenly Master, I know this request might be burdensome, but I really can’t bear to leave my parents. Could you allow me to see my parents occasionally?”

Shuangshuang paused in silence and then said, ”You are a ghost. If you frequently meet your parents in your ghostly form, it would affect their lifespan. If your parents’ lifespan is reduced because of you, it would be a grave sin on your part when you enter the Underworld later. I can teach you the technique of linking dreams so that you can reunite with your parents in their dreams.”

Earlier, when Shuangshuang mentioned that seeing each other often would affect lifespan, Cui Cui’s parents were so moved they almost said they wouldn’t mind living shorter lives if it meant meeting their daughter. But upon hearing that their daughter would bear a grave sin if they died early because of her, the two elders had no choice but to give up.

Unexpectedly, Shuangshuang was willing to teach their daughter the technique of linking dreams, allowing them to meet in dreams! Although not a real meeting, seeing their daughter in dreams would satisfy them!

The two elders and Cui Cui thanked Shuangshuang profusely once more! Their gratitude even made Shuangshuang blush a little, but her usually cold demeanor hid it well.

Having had a good chat with their daughter, when Wang Wei came over to ask the two elderly to issue a forgiveness letter, after severely stressing Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong, Cui Cui’s parents accepted the ten million compensation from Wang Wei and wrote the forgiveness letter.

Chen Lijuan narrowly escaped death and surrendered herself obediently. Due to her good attitude and the forgiveness letter from the victim’s parents, Chen Lijuan was only sentenced to a suspended death sentence, which, barring unexpected events, would be commuted to life imprisonment in the future.

Chen Lijuan thought she could escape Cui Cui’s haunting once she was in prison, but only then did she truly experience what living hell was like! Worse than death!

Even in prison, she was still haunted by Cui Cui’s ghost night after night, undergoing various tortures. Having her chest sliced open and her heart gouged out became the mildest—the breaking of every bone and the slow dismemberment followed...

Tortured by Cui Cui to the point of being unable to live or die, whenever Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong visited her, Chen Lijuan wanted to tell them she was still being haunted, hoping they would find a master to perform an exorcism!

But to Chen Lijuan’s horror, whenever she wanted to let Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong know she was doing badly, what came across was a display of calmness and peacefulness. She wished to say she was haunted and miserable, but what came out instead was that she was doing well and merely felt guilty, urging Wang Wei to make occasional monetary contributions to Cui Cui’s parents.

Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong, already feeling guilty towards Cui Cui’s family, would obediently make a donation to Cui Cui’s parents every time they heard this!

The inability to voice her suffering left Chen Lijuan in agony and despair! Such torment pushed her to the brink of madness! She wanted to die, to lose her sanity, but Cui Cui’s ghost wouldn’t allow her to die or go mad. She could only continue to live, enduring the torment with a sober mind!
