Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Qi Shuangshuang finished speaking and carefully glanced at the Mountain Spirit and Ziteng in front, still feeling uncomfortable.

Li Yu folded her arms and watched the one in front floating leisurely, yet just at the right speed, completely allowing Ziteng behind to keep up.

Another was following close behind, maintaining an extremely close distance, and lightly said: ”Their demeanor is too intimate.”

Qi Shuangshuang realized with a nod, blaming her preconceived notion that Ziteng, hurt by love, naturally felt no warmth toward men.

This Mountain Spirit was a male ghost, and Qi Shuangshuang thought, given Ziteng’s condition, she wouldn’t be close to a man, hence she didn’t notice the intimacy between these two.

This was pointed out by Li Yu, and Qi Shuangshuang realized how close they were, and seeing Ziteng, it didn’t seem intentional, as if it was instinct to be close to him.

This was indeed strange. Ziteng, despite being a Monster, even in death, is a Demon Soul much stronger than a lowly ghost like the Mountain Spirit.

Not to mention Ziteng was once hurt by her beloved, how can she naturally follow a male ghost Mountain Spirit without any sign of discomfort?

Thinking for a while without clarity, Qi Shuangshuang put it aside, considering that according to Pei Shaosen’s record, Ziteng never lied, any other variables wouldn’t matter.

The group quickly arrived at the entrance of a magnificent cave where Ziteng’s Great Demon friend lived.

Ziteng’s Great Demon friend is originally a peacock, though her appearance isn’t stunning as she is a female peacock.

As everyone knows, among birds, males are beautiful, while females are mostly dull-colored, unimpressive in appearance, and upon monsterization, they wouldn’t become more striking.

This Peacock Demon called Que Xi is incredibly powerful, known in the area, where no other Great Demon is her match, making her the undisputed boss in the vicinity.

If Que Xi weren’t powerful, she wouldn’t have rescued Ziteng’s Demon Soul from that Evil Taoist and protected her safely for so many years.

Seeing Qi Shuangshuang and Li Yu, Que Xi already understood the purpose of Qi Shuangshuang’s visit, she had sent Ziteng to find the Yin Yang Inn just for this day.

Que Xi straightforwardly told Qi Shuangshuang that the Mountain Spirit knows the hiding place of the Evil Taoist, and as long as Qi Shuangshuang takes the Mountain Spirit, she’ll find the Evil Taoist.

Originally, the Mountain Spirit was bound by Da Shan and couldn’t leave, but by releasing his identity and returning to a pure soul, he could leave this mountain that turned him into a Mountain Spirit and head to reincarnation.

Que Xi intended for the Mountain Spirit to guide Qi Shuangshuang, clearly wanting to use Qi Shuangshuang’s hand to release the Mountain Spirit’s identity, allowing him to return to a spirit form and have a chance at reincarnation.

Que Xi didn’t hide her intention from Qi Shuangshuang, who didn’t mind, as aiding the Mountain Spirit in becoming a human soul again was simply a matter of a talisman for her.

Thus, the Mountain Spirit quickly reverted to a pure soul, but even upon returning, he was entirely cloaked in a large black cape from head to toe, preventing anyone from seeing his true form.

Ziteng seemed accustomed to this, continuing to call him Brother Dashan without any special reaction.

With Dashan’s guidance, Qi Shuangshuang and the others quickly found the Evil Taoist’s location.

The opponent hid well, and when they arrived, he was in seclusion, cultivating; Qi Shuangshuang sensed his aura, discovering the Evil Taoist’s seclusion seemed aimed at prolonging his life.

Qi Shuangshuang’s eyes gleamed with golden light, threads of fate flashed before her, most being black.

This indicated the Evil Taoist, though still alive, has continuously done evil, with bloody hands, his lifespan long exhausted.

Now, he’s alive only by using Evil Path methods to forcibly extend his life, as with Ziteng’s Demon Essence before, sufficient for prolonging his life by ten to twenty more years.

While Qi Shuangshuang could easily end the Evil Taoist’s life, it wouldn’t be Ziteng’s revenge but her punishing the evildoer.

To relieve Ziteng of her resentment, Ziteng must personally eliminate her enemy, to unleash the grudge within.

Qi Shuangshuang raised her hand and gently pointed twice, instantly sealing the mountain where the Evil Taoist resided within a massive Barrier, preventing escape.

After setting the Barrier, Qi Shuangshuang waved her hand to place a small Barrier on Li Yu, Ziteng, and Dashan, before leading them into the Barrier.

Upon entering the Barrier, Qi Shuangshuang waved her hand again, causing a large field of Manjushaka to spontaneously emerge at her feet, spreading to encompass the entire mountaintop.

The serene fragrance of Manjushaka gradually dispersed, gathering in the air, growing denser, all of which surged towards the Evil Taoist’s seclusion spot.

The scent of Manjushaka can unintentionally spark memories of one’s lifetime but, if harnessed deliberately, will draw one into the Illusion Realm, even a Heavenly God and Immortal cannot escape its encroachment.

After the Manjushaka scent dispersed, Qi Shuangshuang beckoned Ziteng over, lifting her hand to draw a talisman on Ziteng’s forehead.

The talisman glowed with gold, instantly vanishing into Ziteng’s Demon Soul, which became solidified and gleamed with brilliant golden light.

Ziteng perceived, realizing her Mana had returned! No, it should be said her Mana had become stronger, unprecedentedly powerful, far exceeding her peak upon living.

Qi Shuangshuang pointed to the Evil Taoist’s seclusion spot and said to Ziteng: ”There lies your enemy; now for you, he’s like meat on the cutting board, ready for you to manipulate.

Do not fear, boldly go forth, demand justice for yourself, exact your revenge personally, relieve the grudge within, then we shall go find your next enemy.”

Ziteng looked at the Evil Taoist’s seclusion place, then at Qi Shuangshuang, finally taking a deep breath, she gracefully bowed to Qi Shuangshuang in gratitude: ”Thank you, Shopkeeper, your help is immeasurable to Ziteng!”

Thanking Qi Shuangshuang, Ziteng swiftly flew towards the Evil Taoist’s seclusion, her expression carrying deep hatred, with murderous intent on her brow.
