56: Chapter 56 Immortal, Please Spare My Life 56: Chapter 56 Immortal, Please Spare My Life Weasels, foxes, and snakes are the most spiritually endowed creatures apart from humans.
Throughout history, there have been countless rumors and anecdotes involving demons transformed from these three creatures.
Ge was simply an ordinary person; it was impossible for her to be a transformed weasel.
“This Weasel Demon must be the entity behind Mrs.
“The so-called magic she practiced was actually using the Mana of the Weasel Demon.”
“There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
The Weasel Demon lent its Mana to Mrs.
Ge—what price did she have to pay in return?
Or perhaps her lifespan?”
Upon seeing the weasel’s shadowy figure behind Mrs.
Ge, Chen Hai suddenly realized and had many epiphanies.
He practiced self-cultivation.
In his view, this was the proper method of cultivation.
Ge, who took shortcuts by borrowing mana, were obviously of a lower order and probably counted among the heretics.
As the shadowy figure of the weasel gradually solidified, it transformed into a flash of white light and vanished.
And at that moment, Mrs.
Ge, who had been muttering to herself, foamed at the mouth and collapsed to the ground.
“Young lady, there’s a divide between yin and yang.
Why bother persisting in entangling with him?”
“What do you mean I’m persisting?
After being trapped for countless years, only he helped me escape my confinement.
I owe him my life; it’s natural to give myself to him in return.”
“I can feel that he is very infatuated with my body.
I just want to stay with him forever—eternally united.
What, you want to break us apart?”
“Young lady, he’s not like you.
You can live indefinitely, but if he exhausts his yang energy, the only thing awaiting him is the scattering of his soul.”
“I don’t care; I just want to be with him.
Whoever tries to stop me is my enemy!”
Ge’s eyes had rolled back.
But eerily, two completely different voices were coming from her mouth.
One was rough and male, the other high-pitched and female.
At first, these two voices merely contrasted with each other, but eventually, they started to argue loudly.
This scene unfolded plainly in front of everyone.
Li Hanchu’s face was pale, and his countenance had lost much of its color.
Zhang Xiu, the woman, had somehow produced a pair of scissors and was holding them, looking warily around with full alertness.
Alas, she heard the sounds but, except for Mrs.
Ge lying on the ground, she couldn’t see any other unusual figures before her.
Sitting next to Chen Hai, Sun Jinzhong appeared calm and composed, but his legs were shaking uncontrollably.
The last time, at the Garden Hotel, when his cousin Chen Hai was divining for Boss Li, it was straightforward with no anomalies.
He’d never imagined encountering such a bizarre situation now!
“Cousin, what’s with the voices of the man and the woman?
“It must be the entity behind Mrs.
Ge negotiating with the thing that’s clinging to Sun Jinzhong.”
“No, the two parties seem to have started fighting!”
Although Chen Hai had promised earlier that he and Sun Jinzhong would only watch and not speak, Sun Jinzhong, with his legs trembling non-stop, still couldn’t help but whisper a few words to Chen Hai.
As the two of them spoke, another incident occurred with Mrs.
She, who was previously unconscious, now had her eyes wide open, and was wailing and thrashing about on the ground.
“Great Immortal, spare me!
I won’t meddle in others’ affairs anymore!”
“Let’s go, I’ll leave right away!”
Although there was clearly no one beside her, at that moment, she seemed to be viciously beaten by someone.
Bruises, one after another, eerily appeared out of nowhere on her exposed skin.
To the average person, such a sight would seem utterly baffling.
But within Chen Hai’s range of vision, he could clearly see that the Weasel Demon’s ghostly figure was punching and kicking Mrs.
And the Weasel Demon’s ghostly figure, at that moment, looked equally disheveled and wretched.
Its already ethereal body bore wounds that were so ferocious to look upon.
Perhaps, right after the Weasel Demon’s apparition had vanished, it had clashed with an unknown entity that was entangling Li Hanchu, ultimately suffering a significant loss.
Unable to defeat this unknown entity, it could only vent its anger by beating Mrs.
Ge, the one who had summoned it.
Under normal circumstances, such ghostly Demon Souls would be incapable of directly interacting with physical matter unless they reached a certain level of strength.
The reason the Weasel Demon’s apparition could inflict direct harm on Mrs.
Ge stemmed mainly from the special relationship between them, which, to some extent, was a shared existence.
Chen Hai roughly estimated that the strength displayed by the Weasel Demon’s apparition was even weaker than the Toad Demon he had previously consumed.
To him, this Demon Soul was nothing more than a weakling.
Unfortunately, the conflict between the Weasel Demon and the unknown entity entangling Li Hanchu seemed to occur on a different frequency.
Chen Hai had not witnessed that scene and thus could not gauge the true strength of this unknown entity.
The wailing continued nonstop as Mrs.
Ge still tossed and turned on the ground.
Although she kept begging for mercy, the Weasel Demon obviously hadn’t vented its frustration completely, and the punishment was not yet over.
“These Demon Souls, not a single one is good.
How could it bear to beat and kick an old lady ?”
“Helping others is the nature of a benevolent person.
Ge so pitiful, I might as well lend her a hand!”
With a light sigh, Chen Hai’s soul leaped out from his body.
He immediately turned into a gigantic leech, taller than a man, and pounced toward the Weasel Demon’s ghostly figure.
A cultivator?” The Weasel Demon’s apparition was obviously shocked.
Before, Chen Hai had only manifested a pair of compound eyes, with the majority of his Soul Body hidden within his Physical Body, and he was seated in a corner, utterly inconspicuous.
At that time, the Weasel Demon Soul had obviously not noticed his presence.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so shocked at this moment.
Had it been a fellow human cultivator, Chen Hai might have exchanged pleasantries with it.
However, now, a Weasel Demon Soul was nothing more than nourishment for him, and he had no interest in idle chatter.
As the Weasel Demon exclaimed in surprise, the giant leech Chen Hai had turned into was already firmly attached to its chest.
Pure and potent soul energy flowed into his body through the sucker in gentle streams.
In just a blink of an eye, Chen Hai felt that the benefits he gained were equivalent to more than ten days of arduous cultivation.
The Weasel Demon howled with agony, but no matter how it clawed and thrashed or rolled on the ground, it couldn’t shake off Chen Hai.
In a moment of desperation, it transformed into a white light and burrowed directly into Mrs.
Apparently, a human’s Physical Body offered better protection to a Soul Body compared to a demon’s, with a seemingly stronger effect.
Right after the Weasel Demon Soul entered Mrs.
Ge’s body, it took less than a breath for Chen Hai to be forcibly expelled.
Chen Hai had managed to consume at most a third of the Weasel Demon Soul’s strength.
Faced with the current situation, he had no choice but to temporarily return to his own body.
“Immortal, I beg you, spare my life!” Mrs.
Ge, her face bruised and swollen, covered in contusions, stood up again.
With a look of fear, she approached Chen Hai, bowed respectfully to him, and pleaded for mercy.
