Feng Xing stood there unmoving and watched Senior Zhou Yu’s tall back gradually disappear as he walked away.
She carried a dazed smile and an un-disappearing blush on her face.

It wasn’t until Senior had left for a while that Feng Xing finally moved her numb legs and jumped upstairs.

This building inhabited all types of scums.
On the first floor, there were a bunch of mean, cheap and greedy gossiping aunts.
On the second floor lived disgusting shut-ins who haven’t left their apartments in years.
And on the third floor, resided the worst scum of all, Wu Yun Yi.

Feng Xing happily hummed a tuneless song, fished a key out of her pocket and unlocked the old wooden door.

“I’m back, Mom.
How are you?”

First day- loose all strength.
Second day- cutting of the flesh.
Third day- breaking of bones.
Because of this, this type of witch craft has been banned- Mi Hun.

(Orange: T’was a hard sentence.
I wasn’t sure how to translate them when the author gave me 2 words on what the spell would do.
Eh, close enough.
I also used “mi hun” instead of the literal translation for spell because it was “confusing the spirit” which is basically bewitchment, but like “bewitching” is kind of what most spells do, so I’ll just use the pingyin down for it.
It’s also pronounced “Mí hún.”

Today was the first day of the three days; and her adoptive mother was no longer able to perform her disgusting magic.

Feng Xing walked into the living room.
In the middle of the room sat a huge cage.
The cage was originally used to shut her in whenever she was disobedient, but now, there was someone else being locked in.

The middle-aged woman with disheveled hair in the cage stretched out her thin arms in an attempt to grab Feng Xing.

“You! You! Freak! How dare you do such a thing to your mother! You will face retribution for this!” The middle-aged woman screamed.
Her formerly plump cheeks have now become dry and shriveled up.
Her, once, bright eyes, have dimmed and is full of hatred.

Feng Xing did not speak, but laughed as she circled around the cage.
Her laughter carried a feeling that made one lose one’s nerve and could drive them insane.

Wu Yun Yi felt her power fade away and her heart filled with fear.
She didn’t know how the little bastard was able to learn this type of witchcraft.
Due to her years practicing sorcery, she was able to recognize this spell- mi hun- one of the three forbidden spells.

Once this spell has been cast, it could only be voluntarily stopped by the spell caster, otherwise there was no cure for it.

“Let me go, my daughter.
I will never experiment with you again.
I will pass down all my knowledge to you.
You will become the greatest witch ever lived! I promise! As long as you let me go! We’ll be the closest family ever!” Wu Yun Yi looked at the little bastard standing in front of the cage and mustered out a smile.
Her voice was soft with flattery and enchantments.

Feng Xing stopped laughing, and crouched down, looking at her foster mother in the cage.
It seemed that she was really bewitched.
Slowly, she reached into her pocket and took out a key.

Wu Yun Yi eye’s lit up, staring at the key expectantly.
She mocked Feng Xing in her heart.
She was truly a little bastard, just as foolish as her parents.
All she needed was to coax a bit, and they would obey her.

Suddenly Feng Xing smiled and threw the key far away.

After seeing her adoptive mother’s shocked expression full of despair, she burst out laughing.

Mom, did you know that I have always been waiting for you to be gentle and caring towards me.
Every since childhood, you have tied me up in the cage, forced me to drink bitter medicine, and cut me with a knife till I was bleeding all over.
At those moments, your smile was softer than it is now.
So, such a gentle other must be able to experience all the pain I’ve suffered right? Only that kind of mother is my mother!

Feng Xing’s eyes turned cold and her laugher became more strange.

Wu Yun Yi face twisted in an instant.
She could see clearly that this little rascal has already gone mad and is refusing to let her go.

“Humph! Little bastard! Do you really think I’m your mother? Ha! When I’m dead, you wouldn’t be able to find our who your biological parents are anymore!”

Feng Xing laughed even harder, ignoring the women who had turned ugly and crazy under the threat of death.

Wu Yu Yi’s face sank and hatefully admitted, “I knew it.
You little bastard never really had amnesia! That’s right! Your biological parents were killed by me when they came looking for you.
Otherwise, why do you think I would be hiding this place for years? Your parents were truly idiots! They wanted me to die with them, and ended up destroying half of my life’s work!”

Of course she knows.
When she was three years old, the young Feng Xing, who always believed that she was loved by her mother, met a strange couple.
They held her in their arms and wept, wanting to take her way, but was stopped by her adoptive mother.
They were deceived into going to an remote area and were brutually murdered.
It was also at that time, Feng Xing realized that the mother who had always been strict with her was not her real mother.

However, she was too weak to revolt, so she had to pretend to faint from shock and have amnesia to escape the slaughter.
Then, for the next decade, she wandered around with her adoptive mother, only settling down in the city because her adoptive mother was getting old and frail, unable to bear the sufferings of wandering around.

Her foster mother has grown old, but she has grown up, no longer the foolish naïve girl of the past.

Feng Xing didn’t speak and continued to hum her song as she circled around the cage.
She also took out the voodoo doll from her packet and starting playing with it.

Seeing that doll with her name on it, Wu Yu Yi felt an immense pain which caused her scream hoarsely and uncontrollably.

“Ah! Let me go! Let me go! Ahhhhhh!!

Feng Xing ignored the ruckus and continued to concentrate on playing with the doll.
It was useless for Wu Yun Yi to roll around screaming for her to stop, just like how she used to used to desperately cry in vain for it to stop.

“Ahhh! Little bastard! If I die, don’t think about living either! Your body’s gu has already penetrated deep into your bones.
If I die, you’ll die with me!!”

(Gu: it’s a type of insect that’s highly venomous.)

Feng Xing smiled and stretched out her palm, showing her adoptive mother the tiny bug, then gently crushing it in her palm.

Wu Yun Yi stared at the bug with large eyes, the interconnected gu in her body began to counterattack.

Soon, she was overwhelmed and distracted by the pain, eyes already having lost focus.
The gu she had placed onto Feng Xing had rebelled against her, and now she had to endure the counterattack.

She madly murmured, “I don’t accept this! I don’t accept this! I can’t accept this! It was almost finished! I was supposed to be the world’s most powerful witch! I just needed one last dose of medicine- one last dose! And this body will be mine!”

With that, the middle-aged woman in the cage neared her final breath.

The woman’s voice died down and also became slightly obscure, “Little bastard, don’t think you’ve won just yet.
The magic’s counterattack is about to start! You’ll be the same as me….lo….lo…ah!”

Feng Xing squeezed tightly around the doll in her hand.
Once she saw that the woman had lost her voice, she smiled and put the doll away.

The woman in the cage had died under her own witchcraft.

When Feng Xing was young, Wu Yun Yi had planted the gu in her body.
When Feng Xing squished the bug to death, she will naturally feel the bug’s retribution.

Feng Xing felt a bit regretful.
It was a shame that she wasn’t able to personally end the woman’s life under mi hun.
She could only blame the woman for her own stupidity.
The gu she planted would actually back-fire and take her life.
She was too arrogant, thinking that the gu spell she casted herself wouldn’t be broken.

Looking at her adoptive mother in the cage, Feng Xing again expressed her regret.
It was a pity she hadn’t learned the woman’s spells on ghosts and other supernatural beings, otherwise she would had drawn out the woman’s soul to torture and torment.
Fortunately, her adoptive mother liked to take notes which recorded all her magical knowledge.
She usually forbid her from seeing them, but now everything was hers.

Feng Xing picked up a mop and started mopping up the bloodstains, happily singing.

“Oh~Oh~La~!”

The mop fell onto the ground from Feng Xing’s hand as touched her neck in surprise.
She seemed to be able to speal.

“Ah.
Learn.
Chapter.
Nest.
Can speak!”

It must be that the spell cased by her foster mother had failed! HaHa!

Feng Xing was like a child who got a treausured gift.
She wandered around the living word, saying random words, and enjoying the feeling of the vibrations made when she spoke.

She could talk!!!

Feng Xing was so overjoyed that she didn’t notice strange things happening to her body.

Her facial featured had become rougher and more pronounced, as if…..
she had turned into a boy.

(Orange: Ho Ho Ho??? aladskflsdkgfa;sldgf;skf;.
Is that you male lead???)

***********

【Entering the world.
May the reincarnators please prepare.
There will be five new recruits this time.
Each survivor will be rewarded 500 points per person.】

Splits and cracks appeared in the sky, but was automatically repaired by the world in the next instant.
However, the things that had appeared with the cracks had already silently entered the world.

“Captain, the world this time has supernatural beings.
I’ve seen the movie before! It was really popular back then.
Hey, hey, I really like the fierce ghost little sister’s face.
It was very beautiful!”

“Nonsense! Have you forgotten about the sequel? That fierce ghost turned out to be a male!”

“Aiya! Captain! Why are you doing this? Leave me some good memories okay? The sequel was destroyed by the public for ruining their female goddess! Alas!

“Enough.
Get ready, the plot is about to begin, we only have 20 minutes to prepare!”

******

After Zhou Yu walked Feng Xing home, he started going home, not stopping at all on the way.
He had forgotten that he needed to get home earlier these days.
QAQ.

The sky was getting dark when Zhou Yu saw his house door.
He finally let out a long sigh of relief.
Nothing bad had happened during the journey home.

“Oh! Xiao Yu is back! The bigger you grow, the more handsome you get!” The old man from the next-door apartment house had came out from his home and saw Zhou Yu’s relieved face so he greeted him.

Zhou Yu also smiled and chatted a few words, “Grandpa where are you heading to this late? Do you need any help?”

“No need, no need! I-ah, it’s just my body feeling weak, so I wanted to go out and relax a bit.
Go home quickly kid.
It’s cold at night! Don’t come out if you don’t have anything to do!”

Zhou Yu also wanted to go home and relax, so he nodded his head and was ready to head home.

The originally nervous mood had calmed down.
So it was true that talking to other people or just not thinking about anything would make you feel much better.

The nanny was in the process of reheating the dinner when Zhou Yu got home, “Young master, I’ll heat up the dinner.
It has gone cold.”

Zhou Yu did not realize that the nanny was still there.
He laughed, embarrassed, “Oh, sorry I’m late today, making you stay longer.
In the future, you don’t need to wait for me anymore.
Just go home after you finish cooking!”

“No no no! I can’t do that.
Young Master is already paying me so much, I can’t just do the bare minimum.
Young Master, you go take a seat, the meal will be ready in just a moment!” the nanny was truly greatful for Zhou Yu’s parents giving her this job.
The pay was good and the work was easy.
She wasn’t an ungrateful person so naturally she will serve Zhou Yu with her heart and soul.

“It’s alright! You still have children to take care of in your own family.
I know, just listen to what I said.
Aunty, you aren’t allowed to say no, otherwise I’ll get angry!”

The nanny saw Zhou Yu’s stubborn expression and conceded.
After all, the child in her family was only three years old.
If the old people of the family aren’t around, it’ll be difficult to take care of the baby.

The meal was ready quickly and Zhou Yu started eating.
Suddenly, he heard some noises outside, “Aunty, what’s the matter outside? Why is it so noisy during the night time?”

The nanny was washing the dishes when she heard this.
She glanced outside and said, “Oh, it’s this matter.
Uncle Wang from next door died this afternoon.
I heard that he fell down when he went out for a walk.
Alas, he was already that old, so, it’s a funeral arrangement.

(Funeral arrangement: It’s different from the norm, it’s for the people who live a good old life)

Zhou Yu choked and coughed for half a day before he was able to swallow it.

He didn’t offend any gods recently, right? That old man just now, was he just a ghost?

*********

The next day, Zhou Yu went to school, sporting a darker set of panda eyes.
His whole body looked dispirited.

He has finally understood.
Ever since he arrived in this world, he would bump into ghosts all the time.
He must go worship in a temple some day.

While walking on the road, Zhou Yu saw a familiar figure.
Wasn’t that Feng Xing? Ah, why are you walking so fast?

“Feng Xing! Hi! Good morning!” Zhou Yu jogged a few steps to catch up to the fast moving Feng Xing.
His smile was as warm and as bright as the sun.

Feng Xing flinched, surprised.
She raised her drooping head and peered at Zhou Yu.

Only then did Zhou Yu discover that Feng Xing was dressed strangely.
Her hair was still scattered.
She was dressed in a long overcoat and long red scarf.
She had wrapped herself so tightly that he couldn’t see her face clearly.
This was totally the opposite of what a person should wear during the weather they are having now, which was the early summer type of weather.

“Little junior sister, are you sick?” Zhou Yu looked worryingly at Feng Xing.
