Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 314: Chapter 314 Heavenly Master 21

Wang Jianyong saw his dad frowning and knew what Wang Wei was thinking. He felt a little helpless too and didn’t care about Duan Chengming squatting next to him. He sighed and explained to Wang Wei.

”Dad, I told you just now that this friend of mine is especially brave, and he’s also an atheist. I’ve been so exhausted these past few days that I couldn’t take it anymore and went to find a hotel to get a good night’s sleep, who would have thought I’d run into him.”

At this point, Wang Jianyong looked even more helpless, ”It’s also because I couldn’t keep my mouth shut and accidentally mentioned the haunted house situation at home. Then he got interested, insisting that it wasn’t a ghost or something mysterious like that, but something that science could explain. So he insisted on coming home with me to find out the real reason behind these so-called hauntings.”

Speaking of this, Wang Jianyong felt a splitting headache. This Duan Chengming was so stubborn, no matter how he explained or refused, it didn’t work. Eventually, driven to his limit, he even ran away, only for this guy to end up stalking him all the way to his doorstep.

Having followed him here, Wang Jianyong couldn’t keep him outside any longer. Kind words can’t persuade a diehard ghost, so he reluctantly let Duan Chengming into the house.

Duan Chengming could see that Wang Wei and Wang Jianyong were not welcoming his visit, but they were kind-hearted people. Although Duan Chengming found the belief in ghosts and gods laughable, he didn’t want to be annoying and spout atheistic beliefs to upset anyone.

So Duan Chengming just smiled, ”Uncle, you don’t have to worry about me. I’m just a curious person, always wanting to see and understand everything. You don’t mind me; I won’t cause you any trouble. I’m just here to satisfy my curiosity.”

Wang Wei’s eyebrows twitched as he sighed and thought, since he had invited a master today, with the master around, nothing should go wrong. So he said no more, figuring that with how stubborn the boy seemed, more persuasion would likely be useless, so he decided not to waste his breath.

He shook his head and said helplessly, ”If you want to stay, then stay. Just don’t act recklessly on your own accord; listen to the master.”

When Wang Wei mentioned the master, Wang Jianyong and Duan Chengming only then noticed there was a little girl in the yard! Because Situ Shuangshuang’s presence was too weak, but this was intentional on her part as she was too lazy to interact with people. It was easier to tone down her presence so no one would come over and engage with her.

Wang Jianyong and Duan Chengming were both stunned when they saw Situ Shuangshuang. Duan Chengming gave an inquisitive look at Wang Jianyong as if to ask why he wasn’t allowed to come but would let such a little girl come over. What was that supposed to mean?

Wang Jianyong was puzzled too, looking at his dad with confusion. Their house was supposedly haunted, so how could they let such a little child come here? What if she got scared out of her mind by a ghost?

Wang Wei wasn’t surprised by their expressions. He wouldn’t have believed that Situ Shuangshuang was just an ordinary little girl if he hadn’t seen her skills before. So Wang Wei sternly told his son, ”This is the master I invited; do not be disrespectful.”

Wang Jianyong’s mouth twitched. Was his dad kidding him? What family has a master this young? They better not fail to catch a ghost and instead let the ghost catch her!

Duan Chengming, on the other hand, looked doubtfully at Wang Wei and Situ Shuangshuang, thinking Wang Wei might be out of his mind for believing a little girl was a master! Furthermore, the way he looked at Situ Shuangshuang was peculiar, as if he was looking at a fake little cultist!

Honestly, it wasn’t just Duan Chengming who thought this way. Even Wang Jianyong seriously considered whether his dad’s intelligence had declined. Otherwise, how could he believe a child as a master! There’s no way this little girl is truly a master; he’d never believe it!

Wang Wei wasn’t surprised at Duan Chengming’s reaction. But seeing even his son giving him a doubtful look, he felt a bit displeased and couldn’t help but turn back and call out to Situ Shuangshuang, ”Master, look here!”

Wang Wei intended for Situ Shuangshuang to show off a bit, to astonish his foolish son. However, Situ Shuangshuang merely looked coldly at the locust tree in front of her and said frostily, ”The hour is approaching; if you don’t dig now, it’ll be too late!”

Wang Wei was instantly jolted awake by Situ Shuangshuang’s icy demeanor. He was currently busy dealing with ghostly matters, not having time to care about what his little scoundrel son thought! He immediately nodded, ”Don’t worry, Master, I’ll start digging right away!”

After speaking, he lowered his head and started working diligently, shoveling briskly. He couldn’t help but admire how calm the master remained in the face of direct questioning; truly impressive psychological resilience!

Wang Wei had no idea that the one he thought to have a good temper was actually silently chanting the Heart Clarity Spell to avoid impulsively throwing two Curse Talismans at the two men who looked at her as if she were a fraud!

Situ Shuangshuang didn’t know where her anger came from! Her rational mind clearly understood they had every reason to doubt her as a fraud. Think about it, if she were an ordinary person encountering a ghost, she’d most definitely find someone appearing more seasoned and ethereal more reliable, certainly not suspecting a young girl of truly being a master. Rational as she was, anger flared up regardless!

While Situ Shuangshuang was busy calming her anger, Wang Jianyong and Duan Chengming were shocked, watching Wang Wei dig faster and faster, quickly excavating a large hole in the ground.

Duan Chengming couldn’t help but whisper to Wang Jianyong, ”I didn’t know your dad was so fit!”

Wang Jianyong was equally puzzled, when did his dad become so strong? Normally, when accompanying him to hike, he always needed to take the cable car up and walk down, and even then he’d be exhausted. How was he so powerful today?

But soon, Wang Jianyong and Duan Chengming didn’t bother questioning this because Wang Wei, while digging, unexpectedly unearthed something pale. At first, Wang Wei didn’t realize what it was. But after a few more scoops, he saw clearly—it turned out to be a human skeleton!

This frightened Wang Wei half to death; he immediately tossed the shovel aside and clambered out of the pit, collapsing to the ground and asking Situ Shuangshuang, with chattering teeth, ”M-M-Master, wh-what is th-this?”

Wang Wei’s voice cracked out of fear from the sudden appearance of a human skeleton in his backyard. Even the watching Wang Jianyong and Duan Chengming were startled, similarly filled with shock and fear!

Duan Chengming, however, lived up to Wang Jianyong’s description of him as bold. After his initial shock, he became intrigued by the exposed skeleton in the pit, showing a keen interest in jumping down to fully excavate the bones.
