Chapter 10 Transition 2
"Immortals?" Caihua was somewhat skeptical. "But you are different from the Bodhisattva statue my mother worships, and you are different from the Kitchen God in the kitchen. Are you really immortals?"
“Yes, that’s right, we are immortals.” Lu Renkui felt that Caihua wasn’t so easy to fool, but she continued to try—maybe she would succeed—she said, “The gods you usually see have already attained enlightenment. As for us, we are just a little short of attaining enlightenment. Once we attain enlightenment, we will be exactly the same as the gods you usually worship.”
“Yes, yes, yes,” System WQBYRZM quickly echoed.
"The reason we two are traveling in spirit is to experience the myriad aspects of the world, gain insights from them, and ultimately attain enlightenment and become immortals. Today, you are destined to be with us, so we have separated our spirits to enter your body and enlighten you."
Ayaka seemed to believe it somewhat, and Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM breathed a sigh of relief. Then, Ayaka knelt down before them with a thud.
"This humble one greets the Immortal." Caihua knelt before Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM.
Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM fell silent as they watched Ayaka suddenly kneel down.
Good news: Ayaka believed the nonsense they were spouting.
The bad news is that the lie that they are immortals might be difficult to maintain.
"System, what should we do if she kneels down?" Lu Renkui asked, leaning close to the system WQBYRZM's ear.
"Hiss, let me see if there are any safe opportunities around that the male protagonist Jing'an obtained in the original text." The system opened the search function. Since they weren't leaving until tomorrow anyway, they might as well help this child. The little maid named Caiyue said that Caihua was not in good health. Let's see if this opportunity can help Caihua improve her health. Consider it compensation for taking up Caihua's body to complete the mission during this period.
"Are you free tomorrow?" System WQBYRZM asked Ayaka.
Caihua thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow is the day when the students from the manor go out for training. My mother will also take me with her to follow behind the students and help them with their meals."
The system WQBYRZM then asked, "Where are you going...?"
"It is... Bai Nai Mountain, the closest mountain to the Prince's Palace."
"Alright, when you go to Bai Nai Mountain with them, find some free time, pack some dry rations, sneak out, find a cave on the mountain, go inside and take a look. There are some treasures in that cave. If there are any pills, you can take some. They might be good for your health."
"Thank you for your blessings, two immortals." Caihua remained kneeling on the ground, showing no intention of getting up. Finally, Lu Renkui couldn't bear to see her like this anymore and told Caihua to get up, only then did Caihua stand up.
Lu Renkui looked at Caihua, who was standing respectfully in front of them. He turned to the system WQBYRZM and asked, "Now that she's awake, we can't keep occupying her body forever. Should we return it to her? But if we leave now, it would be too dangerous for such a small child to go treasure hunting alone."
System WQBYRZM pondered for a moment, then said, "Then let's wait until tomorrow, after she finds the treasure, before we leave."
One person and one system reached a consensus.
In the demon realm, Zhang Chenmian fled back from the spiritual cultivator's territory, leaping through her window and back into her room. Yesterday, she dreamt of two strange women plotting to possess her body and train her younger sister to become a spiritual cultivator. From these women, Zhang Chenmian learned that her sister would later become devoted to a man who suddenly appeared—a spiritual cultivator! This spiritual cultivator had tricked her sister into bringing him to the demon realm, and after she discovered him and stabbed him to death, their relationship deteriorated.
And that man somehow entered the body of a demonic cultivator and was reborn. After his rebirth, he wiped out Zhang Chenmian's entire family except for his sister.
Zhang Chenmian absolutely wouldn't allow this to happen. So, after hearing the address of the man who would later deceive his sister, she ruthlessly pulled the two women away and quickly rushed to the location of the man they called "the male lead." Unexpectedly, that guy was quite lucky. Not only did he dodge her attack, but he was also discovered by the Wang family and almost trapped there.
Zhang Chenmian slammed her hand on the table in anger: "Damn it, I was so close! I could have chopped that bastard's head off. I should have stolen some Swiftness Pills from my father. This little bit of time is not enough for me."
Zhang Chenmian decided to go to the spirit world again sometime. Since they had already been discovered tonight, the spirit world would definitely strengthen its vigilance. She needed to find a time when the spirit world was relaxed before going there.
dong dong dong.
There was a knock on Zhang Chenmian's door, and then a little girl opened it.
"Sister!" Zhang Chenmian's younger sister, Zhang Xi'an, threw herself into Zhang Chenmian's arms. "Where did you go tonight? Parents have been looking for you everywhere."
"Little Jing, be good." Zhang Chenmian stroked Zhang Xi'an's head and said, "Sister is going to take care of the trash."
"Disposing of garbage?" Zhang Xi'an tilted his head and thought for a moment before asking, "Is it those subordinates that give Father a headache?"
"Pretty much." Zhang Chenmian compared the male protagonist's danger with that of his subordinates who were always thinking about how to seize power, and finally came to the conclusion that the two were about the same.
