Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Because she was worried about Cai Ruoyang, after waiting for a month, Ziteng could no longer hold back. She decided to go down the mountain to find Cai Ruoyang, afraid that he had been locked up by his parents.

However, before Ziteng could leave the courtyard, Cai Ruoyang returned. But the situation was extremely dire; his lips were pale blue, looking as if he was about to die.

Cai Ruoyang told Ziteng that after he returned home, his parents refused to let him be with Ziteng and locked him up. He then threatened them with suicide and took poison, which forced his parents to let him return to Ziteng.

Ziteng was not skilled in medicine, but she could sense that Cai Ruoyang’s breath was very weak, almost non-existent, as if he were indeed dying, which made Ziteng cry in panic.

Ziteng sought the help of many doctors to treat Cai Ruoyang and detoxify the poison, but unfortunately, all the doctors could do nothing and advised Ziteng to prepare for Cai Ruoyang’s funeral. Naturally, Ziteng could not bear to see her beloved die.

Since the doctors couldn’t save Cai Ruoyang, Ziteng was left with no choice but to take desperate measures. She extracted her own Demon Essence, the core of a demon’s cultivation.

The energy of the Demon Essence is pure, and Ziteng planned to split half of her Demon Essence and give it to Cai Ruoyang, hoping this half would save her beloved’s life.

However, Cai Ruoyang was human, and she was a demon. Ziteng had no idea what would happen if Cai Ruoyang consumed half of her Demon Essence.

There was a considerable chance that Cai Ruoyang might die from the powerful force of the Demon Essence ripping him apart, or he might transform into a half-human, half-demon monster.

This was the reason Ziteng had been hesitant to use her Demon Essence to save Cai Ruoyang, but now he was about to die, leaving Ziteng with no option but to use her Demon Essence to save him.

Unexpectedly, just as Ziteng was about to divide her Demon Essence, it disappeared from her hand.

Simultaneously, a Taoist suddenly appeared in the courtyard, holding Ziteng’s Demon Essence.

At the same moment, Cai Ruoyang, who had seemed weak and on the brink of death, suddenly stood vigorously behind Ziteng.

He plunged a Seven Stars Sword ferociously into Ziteng’s back, the blade piercing through her body, causing a surge of blood to gush forth, staining her pure white dress red.

Ziteng turned back in utter shock to look at Cai Ruoyang, unable to believe that her beloved scholar would treat her this way!

Ziteng was a demon who had transformed and thus possessed resilient Life Force. Even though her Demon Essence was seized, and Cai Ruoyang had stabbed her in the back, she did not die and was still alive.

In such agony, Ziteng looked at her lover desperately, as he indifferently discussed with the Taoist how to fully utilize her, the demon.

They plotted to use her Demon Essence to craft an elixir that would extend life and preserve youth, planning to extract the last of her value completely.

Somehow, the Taoist used certain means to revert Ziteng into her original form, immersing her in a thick black potion.

In that potion, Ziteng felt the last remnants of Life Force within her being constantly stimulated, her Spiritual Energy gathered to bloom clusters of Purple Vine Flowers.

Those Purple Vine Flowers absorbed Ziteng’s final Life Force and Spiritual Power, and after being made into Purple Wisteria Flower Cakes, they were even more effective in strengthening than before when Ziteng gave them to Cai Ruoyang.

Once Ziteng had completely exhausted her last shred of Life Force, the Taoist wanted to refine her spirit into an Evil Artifact.

Fortunately, a big demon friend of Ziteng realized she was in trouble in time and saved her Demon Soul, though the big demon couldn’t defeat the Taoist to avenge Ziteng.

Ziteng was in great pain and despair, not understanding why the lover for whom she was willing to forsake her Demon Essence was so heartless!

Because of the insurmountable resentment, Ziteng couldn’t enter the cycle of reincarnation, yet the Taoist was too powerful for Ziteng to exact revenge. Her big demon friend constantly watched over her, fearing she might act impulsively and endanger herself seeking revenge.

But Ziteng could no longer hold back, and with no other choice, her big demon friend told her, "If you wish to seek revenge, go to the Yin Yang Inn. The inn can resolve all guests’ obsessions."

Thus, Ziteng arrived at the Yin Yang Inn, hoping to borrow the power of the Yin Yang Inn to help her avenge herself.

Upon hearing Ziteng’s story, Li Yu sneered and remarked, "You little demons are just simple-minded! You fall for a man, give everything away, and then come crying after being betrayed.

If you had known this earlier, why act that way at the beginning? If you had cultivated into a big demon, you wouldn’t be bullied by a Taoist and a mortal to this extent, even if your man betrayed you, you as a big demon could easily deal with him."

Li Yu’s words were harsh, but his fingers were tapping restlessly on his arm, showing he was rather agitated.

Feng Lin shot Li Yu a glare, dissatisfied, "What are you saying? Miss Ziteng is already so miserable, can’t you stop with the sarcastic remarks?"

"Feng Lin, don’t speak recklessly." Qi Shuangshuang suddenly interrupted Feng Lin.

Abruptly interrupted, Feng Lin seemed to realize something, glancing at Li Yu with discomfort and guilt, and after a long moment, muttered softly, "Alright, I misspoke."

After speaking, he carefully observed Li Yu’s somber expression and couldn’t resist adding, "Though I exaggerated a bit, you shouldn’t keep dwelling on the past.

Miss Ziteng is already suffering greatly now, and it wasn’t her fault in the first place. She was just a bit naïve, trusting others too easily.

Moreover, she was naturally raised, with no guidance, how could she know so much? No matter how angry you are, it changes nothing, so why say such harsh words to make her feel worse?"

Qi Shuangshuang looked towards Li Yu, feeling concerned. Li Yu’s strong reaction to Ziteng’s matter was indeed related to his past.

Li Yu had a sister who he relied upon, but she fell for a human and was ultimately betrayed and killed.

Li Yu’s sister died tragically, her Demon Soul shattered upon death, and if not for Li Yu saving her in time, even that fragmented Demon Soul would’ve been lost.

Li Yu’s power was strong enough, allowing him to avenge his sister immediately, but he was helpless in saving her shattered Demon Soul, eventually having to seek help from the Underworld.

Li Yu was inherently powerful but carefree, loving freedom, not the sort to quietly work for the Underworld.

Yet, for sending his sister’s shattered spirit into reincarnation, he had no choice but to sign a contract with the Yin Yang Inn, working for the Underworld to offset the cost of restoring his sister’s soul.

A big demon who cherished freedom became bound to the small Yin Yang Inn indefinitely; such a price for Li Yu was indeed heavy.
