Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 388: Chapter 388 Heavenly Master 95

Situ Shuangshuang could tell that most of these people didn’t really believe she had genuine abilities. They were probably here more to appease Zhu Yanhua, coming with the idea of humoring a child.

There were also a few young people present, likely siblings or cousins of the same generation as Zhu Yanhua. These young people looked at Situ Shuangshuang with expressions of curiosity, clearly intrigued by her identity as a Heavenly Master.

In the eyes of the world, a Heavenly Master is either so mysterious as to be unfathomable or a swindler deceiving superstitious people. Given her age, Situ Shuangshuang was undoubtedly considered a fraud by many.

Situ Shuangshuang was accustomed to such skeptical looks. Nowadays, although people still believe in supernatural forces, even those who pray and burn incense daily for good karma in the next life, often hold disbelief deep in their hearts.

Fortunately, even though disbelief was written all over their faces, no one said anything unpleasant. As long as Situ Shuangshuang maintained her aloof and unapproachable demeanor, there was no need to engage with these people.

So, Situ Shuangshuang merely glanced perfunctorily at the people in the courtyard before moving to the table to check the items she had previously asked Zhu Yanhua to purchase.

There weren’t many items on the round table: a flawless, beautiful large white porcelain basin; a bunch of freshly gathered green grass; and a large map covering the entire country down to the village details, about three meters square! The preparations were carefully made, and Situ Shuangshuang was fairly satisfied.

Situ Shuangshuang first picked up the bunch of grass and began braiding a grass figurine. Her hands were deft and quick, and she soon fashioned a lifelike grass figure.

After crafting the figurine, Situ Shuangshuang pulled out a piece of talisman paper and ignited it with her Palm Fire, infusing a warm yellow glow into the grass figure.

Next, Situ Shuangshuang took out her vermillion charm pen, dipped it in vermillion, and wrote Zhu Yanling’s birthdate and eight characters on the back of the grass figure, which she had obtained from Zhu Yanhua earlier.

After writing down the birth details, Situ Shuangshuang picked up the grass figurine and aimed it at Zhu Yanhua’s face, saying, ”Blow a breath onto it!”

Since Situ Shuangshuang started, Zhu Yanhua watched her actions with both anticipation and confusion. Now hearing Situ Shuangshuang’s command, she reflexively blew a breath toward the grass figurine in Situ Shuangshuang’s hand!

Then, something mysterious happened! After Zhu Yanhua blew on it, the grass figure in Situ Shuangshuang’s hand transformed at a speed visible to the naked eye into a palm-sized little person identical in appearance to Zhu Yanhua! The only difference was a small black mole on the little person’s chin!

Witnessing this, Zhu Yanhua was utterly shocked. She watched the grass figure in Situ Shuangshuang’s hand twist and move its limbs, as if it really had life, and couldn’t stop herself from exclaiming, ”Sister!”

Not only Zhu Yanhua, but the surrounding onlookers also went from looking bored to being just as shocked as Zhu Yanhua!

Indeed, the little person in Situ Shuangshuang’s hands looked exactly like Zhu Yanling, Zhu Yanhua’s elder sister!

Not only did Zhu Yanhua excitedly call out ”Sister,” but suddenly everyone rushed over excitedly, both old and young, all clamoring to call Zhu Yanling’s name. Each of them seemed very emotional, clearly showing they were all really Zhu Yanling’s family, with deep feelings towards her!

Seeing them all so worked up, Situ Shuangshuang poured cold water on their excitement with a detached tone, ”You needn’t call out; this is just a substitute. Essentially, it’s still a grass figure, not the person, it has no wisdom and won’t respond to you.”

Saying this, Situ Shuangshuang shook the grass figure in her hand. The little grass person flopped and sat in her palm!

But the shaken grass figure showed no response, its expression remained wooden and blank, staring vacantly at one place, as if its eyes couldn’t move at all. Clearly, although the grass figure could move and act like a real, miniature living person, it indeed had no wisdom.

Realizing that the little figure truly had no wisdom, Zhu Yanhua and her family members displayed disappointment, but soon their hopeful and eager gazes all turned back to Situ Shuangshuang. Being stared at by so many pairs of eyes, Situ Shuangshuang felt a little uncomfortable and frowned.

These people crowded around her so tightly that Situ Shuangshuang found it difficult to proceed with her next actions. Particularly with her quick-tempered nature and rather strong inner fire, she was prone to sudden outbursts. Just as she was earnestly working, being surrounded so tightly that she couldn’t act made her inner fire flare up!

Feeling her frustration rise once again, Situ Shuangshuang quickly suppressed it, repeatedly chanting in her heart, you have to understand, these people are all Zhu Yanling’s relatives, having worried for years and now suddenly seeing hope. It’s understandable for them to be excited, understandable! Besides, they haven’t done anything wrong, they’re just watching you, don’t get angry!

After muttering for a while to hold back her anger, Situ Shuangshuang took a deep breath, planning to continue her work. But as soon as she turned around, she found the people still surrounding her just as densely, making it difficult to move even slightly. The inner fire she had just suppressed suddenly flared back up!

Though she tried to suppress it again, seeing all those faces still staring at her, all those eyes fixed unblinkingly on her like thieves, she found she couldn’t hold down the surging flames of her inner fire!

What’s more, fueling Situ Shuangshuang’s growing frustration was the relentless chatter from these people, not only crowding around her but also bombarding her with questions.

”Wow, this is the real deal, Master! You’re so amazing! At first, I thought you were a fraud because you’re so young. How did you cultivate this, did you start practicing in your mother’s womb?” asked a curious young man, probably a brother of Zhu Yanhua.

”What’s this kid saying! Master has genuine skills, don’t mind this immature little brat, Master. He’s just a childish kid who hasn’t grown up, just ignore him!” chimed in an elderly middle-aged woman, though she seemed to forget that Situ Shuangshuang was actually younger than the kid she was referring to.

”Master, where exactly is my granddaughter? Do you really have confidence in finding her?” asked Zhu Yanhua’s anxious grandmother.

”Master, just as long as you can find my granddaughter, we’ll double the reward we’re offering for finding her!”
