Chapter 50: Spiritual Body (2/2)

The man clenched his chest. Not only was he feeling angry, but also shocked. Several years ago, when he went to the secular world, he met a baby with a special body constitution. The body’s constitution was very suitable for hosting an evil spirit inside it. Therefore, he performed an evil incantation on the baby girl.

Originally, he wanted to bring the baby girl back to the sect, but he was afraid that the moment he brought her back, her body’s constitution would be discovered by the sect’s elder, causing the effort he spent on the incantation to be wasted.

Furthermore, the evil spirit needed to absorb a large amount of vitality from people. If he were to bring her back, she would not be able to absorb any vitality. It would be impossible for him to be killing cultivators everywhere just for her, right? Therefore, it was better to leave her in the secular world.

Not only would this prevent her discovery by other sects, she could also absorb a large amount of vitality over there. Since he was able to sense the evil spirit and have a contract with it, wherever she cultivated was not an issue for him.

All these years, because of the little girl, his cultivation had soared. He had already reached the Golden Core Stage last year. The sect started to nurture him, leading him to become an elite disciple in the sect. He had managed to receive more cultivation benefits and also the secluded cave he was in now.

However, he didn’t expect that someone was able to exorcise his evil spirit. What’s more, it all happened in the secular world! Could it be his sect’s secular world disciple?

Because he had a soul contract with the evil spirit, since the evil spirit had been exorcised, it had caused his soul to be heavily injured. This injury would need at least two years time for full recovery. How could he not be angered by this?

He decided that he must definitely make a trip down to the secular world and investigate the matter the moment his injury started to recover.

When they reached Yunhai Airport, it was already past 7 pm. Wu Chang didn’t want Cheng Yu to fetch him, so he took a cab back.

On the way back, Wu Chang’s body was still experiencing the after effects of what he had seen in the afternoon. This caused the flight attendant to think that he was a recovering drug addict. What happened during the afternoon caused him to be astonished. As Wu Chang was an open-minded person and atheist, he had never once believed that god or evil spirits existed.

However, a few hours ago, he had personally experienced evil spirits appearing out of nowhere. If not for the monk’s talisman, he wouldn’t even be alive. The evil spirits were too scary. They had a ferocious appearance and produced miserable shrieks. Even the monk was almost unable to block them. It was all because of Cheng Yu having some extraordinary means. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to make it back.

While they were on the plane, Keke woke up. When he saw her playing with the white rabbit inside the aircraft, Cheng Yu felt very peaceful. [2]

When he reached home, he carried Keke into the house.

“Whose child is that?” When Cheng Meiyan saw that it was Cheng Yu who opened the door, she wanted to scold him for disappearing without informing them, but she noticed that there was a little girl in his bosom so she asked him curiously.

“Haha, she’s my sister. Her name is Cheng Keke,” Cheng Yu laughed.

“What! She is a child from your mother?” Cheng Meiyan was shocked. Zhao Minglong who was seated on the sofa was also stunned. Cheng Yu’s mother had actually raised such a big child, wouldn’t it cause the family to be in chaos?

“Hey! What are you thinking about? I didn’t say that this little girl was from my mother,” Cheng Yu was speechless.

“Not from your mother? Ah! Could it be from your dad?” Cheng Meiyan’s thoughts were going further astray.

“Enough! Keke is a child I adopted. She doesn’t have any family, therefore I let her become my sister and follow me with my surname. Come over here Keke. This is your auntie. Call auntie.” When he saw Cheng Meiyan was having those strange thoughts, he explained everything to her.

“Auntie,” Keke called obediently.

“Oh? So obedient. Come over. Let auntie carry you. So it’s like that. It almost frightened me to death.”

“Keke, this is your uncle. Call uncle.”

“Uncle,” Keke called out obediently again. This caused Zhao Minglong to be extremely elated.

“Auntie, I wish to hire a nanny to take care of Keke since all of us don’t have much time to take care of her,” Cheng Yu sat on the sofa and said.

“True. I will head down to a domestic service company tomorrow and find one,“ Cheng Meiyan carried Keke and said happily.

At night, Cheng Yu actually prepared a room for Keke to sleep. However, Keke insisted on sleeping together with Cheng Yu. Without any other choice, he could only carry her into his room.

As he looked at Keke who was sleeping soundly on the bed, Cheng Yu smiled. He covered Keke with a blanket as he sat on his bed and meditated.

When he closed his eyes and was about to start cultivating, he immediately opened back his eyes and looked at Keke strangely. When he had closed his eyes just now, he suddenly felt a rich and dense spiritual Qi drifting out from her body.

Cheng Yu tried closing his eyes and felt it again. He confirmed that there was spiritual Qi drifting out of her body. Cheng Yu frowned as he looked at Keke for a long time. He finally understood what was going on as he found out the reason as to why someone placed an evil spirit in her.

It’s the spiritual body!
