NOVEL NEXT Chapter 411 Heavenly Master 118
So Shuangshuang was even rougher with Lu Tianxing and his wife, directly using her mana to envelop them, then with one kick, pushed them both back into their bodies!
This time Shuangshuang's movements were even more violent. Once Lu Tianxing and his wife re-entered their bodies, they fell to the ground crying out in pain, only feeling as if countless tiny cuts were made all over their bodies, the pain bringing them both to tears.
Dong Wentao and Duan Ze were also startled by Shuangshuang's rough actions. However, recalling her previous words to the Lu couple, they could understand her fury. Yet, if re-entering was this dangerous, Shuangshuang entering herself would surely be even riskier!
The most crucial part is that this danger was entirely avoidable, but due to the Lu couple's capriciousness, Shuangshuang had no choice but to intervene. Not just Shuangshuang, even her friends Dong Wentao and Lu Tianxing's friend Duan Ze felt the couple went too far this time!
After violently kicking the life souls of the Lu couple back into their bodies, Shuangshuang lifted her head, her voice as cold as ice, and said to Duan Ze, "Tell your friend, even if their family gets chewed alive by ghosts in the future, don't come looking for me!"
With that, Shuangshuang didn't give Duan Ze a chance to reply, turning away and leaving directly. Dong Wentao managed only a gentle smile at Duan Ze before hurriedly following after Shuangshuang!
All along the way, Dong Wentao trailed closely behind Shuangshuang, carefully observing her dark expression, not daring to say a word.
Duan Ze, who was left behind, wore an expression of helplessness. He regretted slightly in his heart, fearing Shuangshuang might take her anger out on him. It's not that he feared revenge from Shuangshuang—after dealing with her so many times, Duan Ze knew she had a bad temper but wasn't narrow-minded!
The main worry was that if Shuangshuang did transfer her anger, he might find himself without help should he need to seek her aid in the future! Duan Ze had dealt with masters before, and one didn't need to say much about their abilities, which was evident from what happened to his precious daughter Duan Tong.
Shuangshuang was the most proficient master in dealing with ghosts and exorcism he had ever met. Such abilities were to be held in high regard, with any offense likely to backfire. Consequently, for his old friend Lu Tianxing, he might have just offended her, and Duan Ze regretted it more with each thought!
Carrying her belly full of anger, Shuangshuang hailed a taxi to take her and Dong Wentao home.
You'd wonder why Shuangshuang suddenly opted for the luxury of not using the Thousand Miles Talisman and using a taxi instead. Naturally, it wasn't because she was suddenly too angry to be frugal, but due to Dong Wentao trailing along, who, aside from having a pair of Yin Yang Eyes that made Heavenly Masters envious, had no other abilities.
With Dong Wentao's physical constitution, if Shuangshuang dared to use the Thousand Miles Talisman, at a speed of a thousand miles in an instant, she'd risk Dong Wentao losing body parts!
After returning home, Shuangshuang decided to first find a place rich in Spiritual Energy for Dong Wentao to learn how to channel Spiritual Energy into his body, at least to first become a Heavenly Master. Moreover, because of the Lu couple's incident, Shuangshuang had decided not to help people with ghost-catching or exorcism for the time being!
Dong Wentao was shocked by Shuangshuang's decisive actions; he hadn't even considered whether he wanted to become a Heavenly Master and see ghosts every day! However, seeing Shuangshuang's face, now colder by several degrees, Dong Wentao shamefully cowered and dared not raise any objections.
Additionally, claiming not to want to become a Heavenly Master and face ghosts every day was just his wishful thinking. Dong Wentao knew that with a pair of Yin Yang Eyes himself, returning to an ordinary life was impossible. If he wanted to preserve his life, becoming a Heavenly Master was the only way.
Grateful that Shuangshuang was willing to teach him, Dong Wentao, who wasn't ungrateful, was indeed very thankful to her. However, unable to restrain his fear of ghosts, he subconsciously resisted the destiny of becoming a Heavenly Master someday.
Shuangshuang made the decision to take Dong Wentao out for cultivation on the day following her return from Lu Tianxing's house. Unexpectedly, though, the Lu family managed a quick response.
Early the next morning, Lu Tianxing brought along a now-recovered Lu Lei and Duan Ze, who was brought over through Lu Tianxing's pleading after knowing Shuangshuang was angry, as well as Lu Lei's mother, to express their gratitude. Shuangshuang was uninterested in seeing this annoying family! She directly avoided meeting them.
Lu Lei, although a good person, lacked mental resilience, which Shuangshuang despised. A person who could muster the courage to die but not to live? What's more, Lu Lei wasn't at a desperate point yet, but showed such disregard for his own life!
When alive, he treated those stray animals so well, but upon death, he didn't think at all about their well-being or consider what might happen to the animals should Lu Tianxing vent his anger on them!
As for Lu Tianxing and his wife, Shuangshuang couldn't even think of these two now, as the very thought of them made her fury rise. Thus, when she heard that Lu Tianxing, accompanied by his family, had come, Shuangshuang didn't even consider Duan Ze's face, but instead entrusted Dong Wentao to host them.
Fortunately, Dong Wentao's strength lay in dealing with people, so although Shuangshuang didn't appear, Dong Wentao managed to somewhat alleviate Lu Tianxing, Duan Ze, and the others' worry about whether Shuangshuang was angry.
As they were leaving, Lu Tianxing left Shuangshuang a three million sum, taking the previously suggested price from Duan Ze as a reference!
Once everyone had left, Shuangshuang finally came out. After receiving the three million, Shuangshuang naturally planned to donate one million to an animal rescue shelter, saving the remaining two million!
It must be said, due to Lu Tianxing and his wife's actions, not even Shuangshuang's love for money could significantly elevate her mood.
Once the unwelcomed had departed, Shuangshuang took Dong Wentao with her, backpacks ready, and left.
On the journey, Shuangshuang walked ahead with an icy face, carrying a huge travel backpack on her back, while Dong Wentao, red-faced and with a lighter pack, followed her out of the city.
This time, Shuangshuang intended to take Dong Wentao to a mountain outside the city for cultivation, heading towards the place she had previously sought help from Mr. Hua of Locust Wood. It had been a while since Shuangshuang visited him!
Regarding Dong Wentao's question as to why they had to walk entirely, Shuangshuang discussed cultivation beginning now, with walking being a means to hone Dong Wentao's endurance. Naturally, Dong Wentao had no choice but to comply.
Of course, Dong Wentao wouldn't know the real reason behind Shuangshuang's decision: as since Dong Wentao had no mana, he couldn't use the Godspeed Talisman or the Thousand Miles Talisman. Mr. Hua's place wasn't a village and had no station, so the only way to get there was by taxi to the entrance to the mountains.
