Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 320: Heavenly Master 27

Cui Cui lingered here, unable to leave, her resentment growing stronger day by day! With the nurturing of the locust tree, Cui Cui became increasingly powerful, her resentful energy thickening day by day, eventually reaching the level of a fierce ghost!

Fortunately, although the locust wood nourished ghosts, it also allowed them to maintain clarity of mind, so despite many tenants coming and going in this house, Cui Cui restrained her resentful energy and didn’t harm innocent people to vent her grievances!

As Cui Cui’s spirit brimmed with more resentment, she grew stronger and finally waited for the return of the family she resented—the family of Chen Lijuan, Wang Wei, and Wang Jianyong, who had never returned since leaving!

Wang Wei was a good man, unaware of the evil deeds done by his wife and secretly helped his parents over the years. Because of this, Cui Cui spared Wang Wei, deciding not to torment him.

Although Wang Jianyong was also innocent, Chen Lijuan had killed Cui Cui for him, and he had eaten Cui Cui’s heart himself! So an indignant Cui Cui tormented Wang Jianyong slightly, but she had no intention of killing him!

But for Chen Lijuan, Cui Cui was consumed with hatred to the point of madness! Simply letting her die wouldn’t quench her resentment! She wanted Chen Lijuan to suffer torture and die unwillingly! So, Chen Lijuan’s successive mishaps without dying was not because she was lucky, but because Cui Cui didn’t intend to let her die easily!

Though Cui Cui couldn’t leave this place, as her mortal enemy who incited all her resentment, Cui Cui could possess Chen Lijuan’s body and leave the vicinity of her own bones!

In this way, Cui Cui followed Chen Lijuan to the hospital, where during the day she possessed Chen Lijuan, making her body weaker day by day. Then every night, she scared Chen Lijuan, who was heavily injured in bed, making her experience the agony of having her heart ripped out alive, just like Cui Cui once did! Until Situ Shuangshuang forcibly summoned her with a Ghost Summoning Talisman!

Cui Cui’s memory ended here, and as everyone emerged from it, they saw Wang Jianyong vomiting bile to the side!

Since he saw himself eating Cui Cui’s heart in the memories, he had been vomiting nonstop. By now, he had already expelled everything in his stomach, even the acid, yet Wang Jianyong couldn’t stop retching!

It wasn’t just Wang Jianyong; aside from Situ Shuangshuang, who was accustomed to witnessing all kinds of grotesque ghosts, everyone else in the yard felt a queasiness rising in their stomachs!

After witnessing such a gruesome murder scene and seeing Wang Jianyong’s mother brewing a heart soup for her son, no one could remain unaffected. It wasn’t them who consumed it, so their reactions weren’t as intense as Wang Jianyong’s.

Wang Wei was the most reactant aside from Wang Jianyong because he couldn’t believe his wife had done such a thing!

Wang Wei couldn’t comprehend why Chen Lijuan would do this! Just to make their child cleverer, she took a life!

To Wang Wei, who loved doing good deeds and helping others everywhere, this was too unbelievable and difficult to accept! Yet the truth was before him; maybe people could lie, but a dead ghost full of resentment had no reason to!

After watching her memories, the black energy on Cui Cui’s face churned continuously, her hatred growing more intense!

She looked at Situ Shuangshuang pleadingly and said, "Lord Heavenly Master, you didn’t scatter my soul upon meeting me and gave me a chance to tell my grievances. You must be a kind-hearted person. I ask you to let me avenge myself, and even if you scatter my soul afterward, I will be content!"

Situ Shuangshuang was silent for a moment, not directly responding to Cui Cui, but instead looked at the dazed Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong, who had stopped vomiting yet were equally at a loss for what to feel. She asked softly, "What are the two of you planning to do?"

Pain was evident on Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong’s faces. Wang Jianyong closed his eyes; he couldn’t accept that his mother would do such a thing, but she was his mother, and everything she did was for him, so he didn’t want his mother to die!

Wang Wei was equally tormented, even knowing his wife’s malice, he couldn’t help but hope she would have a slim chance of survival, so he cautiously asked Situ Shuangshuang, "Can she turn herself in at the police station?"

Situ Shuangshuang silently looked at Wang Wei and then at Wang Jianyong, who looked at her expectantly after hearing Wang Wei’s words.

She understood Wang Wei’s intentions. After so many years, if Chen Lijuan voluntarily turned herself in now, she might receive a lighter sentence. Moreover, if Wang Wei could persuade Cui Cui’s parents to issue a letter of forgiveness, Chen Lijuan might not face the death penalty but life imprisonment.

A life sentence basically meant not having to die; with good behavior, life imprisonment could convert to indefinite imprisonment. Although, given Chen Lijuan’s age, a life sentence meant spending the rest of her days behind bars, that was better than death!

Situ Shuangshuang felt a rage burning inside her that she couldn’t alleviate. Wang Wei was a good person, but even good people have selfish desires. When it concerns their loved ones, can conscience truly not overcome familial affection? A crime like murder should be punished by death!

Situ Shuangshuang knew she couldn’t change Wang Wei’s mind. She could only suppress her anger, and with a cold demeanor, she gestured, collecting the eagerly waiting Cui Cui into the small coffin on her bracelet. She then coldly said, "Fine!" and turned to leave immediately, not wishing to stay another minute in that place.

Looking back at the courtyard still enshrouded in resentment and Yin Qi, Situ Shuangshuang sneered inwardly. The laws of the world might allow leniency, but the laws of heaven, impartial and merciless, offer no such indulgence!

Beasts can kill without guilt, for they act out of ignorance, merely seeking to fill their bellies. But humans, as the wisest of all creatures, if they kill with malice, it’s a heinous crime!

The Reincarnation Road won’t allow such souls to reincarnate as humans. Do they really think being human now entitles them to be human forever? In life, one must live blamelessly to reincarnate as human again!

If a killer can atone for their crime by serving a sentence in life, as long as they haven’t killed more than one person, an eye for an eye is enough. They could, at most, clear their sins in hell for a decade or two and then await reincarnation!

But Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong, unwilling to let their wife|mother pay for her crime, only assure that she can never wash away her transgressions even after imprisonment, leaving her no chance of reincarnating as a human! Her fate is to serve a thousand years in hell before being reborn as a beast!

For a beast to regain human form, immense merit is required. Yet, mindless as beasts are, once wisdom lost, to gain great merit is harder than ascending to heaven!

Upon returning home, Situ Shuangshuang gazed at the two adjacent, blood-red miniature coffins on her wrist that seemed ready to drip blood. With a slight shake, she released Cui Cui.
