Chapter 805: The Recovery of Wei Wei’s Spiritual Aura

Helian Wei Wei retracted her hand. “What’s wrong?”

“You actually carry spiritual aura with you!” This is definitely a noteworthy matter. Why does Brother Wei look so indifferent about it?

Helian Wei Wei understood why Zhuge Yun was surprised. She smiled and replied, “Oh? I used to have spiritual aura, but I lost it for some reason. However, I have recovered my spiritual aura after I ate the Sarira.”

“But, this is so powerful!” Zhuge Yun had yet to recompose himself from the scene that he had just witnessed. “The efflorescence of spiritual aura? I’ve never seen this before!”

None of the exorcists had met anyone who could materialize the spiritual aura. In a greater shock, they stared at Helian Wei Wei with their mouths agape.

“Fine. It’s not the right time to be impressed.” Helian Wei Wei grinned as she told the others, “Let’s resume our task. No one would have expected us to enter the city in disguise. However, we need a guide to bring us into the Ni residence.” Helian Wei Wei paused and turned to look at Zhuge Yun with a purposeful gaze. “We need to find Madam Zhuge first.”

“My mother?” Confused, Zhuge Yun widened his eyes as he rubbed his nose.

Old Li furrowed his brows. “But, didn’t Brother Wei say that we are thought to be possessed by hostile ghosts now? If we go to Madam Zhuge at this instant, aren’t we sending ourselves to an early grave? The Zhuge family has always been a defender of the righteous path. I’m positive that Madam Zhuge will not make an exception for us just because the one who is possessed by the hostile ghosts is her son.”

“But, what if Madam Zhuge knows that Zhuge Yun will never be possessed by a hostile ghost?” Helian Wei Wei smiled. “The heirloom of the Zhuge family must have its use. It’s the Dharma Bone of the Bodhi. The one who wears the heirloom will be immensely blessed. He or she will never be possessed by any ghost. Being the head of the Zhuge family, it’s impossible for Madam Zhuge, the mother of Young Master Yun, to not know about this fact. Therefore, we can conclude that Madam Zhuge is the only person who is not deceived by Ni Feng.”

The exorcists were stunned by the statement.

Just like the others, Zhuge Yun was dumbstruck. He was astonished by Helian Wei Wei’s ability to analyze the entire situation correctly.

“Brother Wei, how did you know?” Zhuge Yun was absolutely impressed.

Helian Wei Wei looked at him and answered, “I merely made a simple inference. Madam Zhuge cares for you dearly and she will not simply acknowledge your misadventure. Meanwhile, Ni Feng expected some survivors among us. As you’ve been blessed by Buddhist gospel since birth, you will certainly be one of the survivors. Therefore, Ni Feng might have spoken more to Madam Zhuge than to the others. She would insist that you’d been possessed by the hostile ghost, hoping that Madam Zhuge would despair. However, she had yet to learn about Bodhi’s Dharma Bone. Madam Zhuge has always been a sharp woman and she could easily tell that Ni Feng was lying. Now, every exorcist in the city, save the disciples of the Zhuge family, is standing by for the war. Just like what Old Li said, the Zhuge family has always been a defender of the righteous path. Under the current circumstances, where the Exorcist City had been encircled by monsters, it’s unlikely for Madam Zhuge to not provide aid, unless she has discovered Ni Feng’s agenda.”

The exorcists studied their surroundings after they listened to Helian Wei Wei’s explanation. Then, only they noticed that they had not seen any disciple of the Zhuge family. We wouldn’t have noticed this if Helian Wei Wei hadn’t mentioned it… She’s so sharp-eyed that she can detect any flaw with a brief glance.

“It’s normal for one of the madams of the four influential families to visit the Ni residence with a few of her servants.” Helian Wei Wei continued, “The chance might be slim, but we need a contact within the city. We need to find Madam Zhuge.”

“Sure.” The exorcists agreed to her unanimously.

Helian Wei Wei grabbed the Bodhi in her hand before she turned to look at the son of the King of Hell who was playing with the monsters. She asked, “Is this Jing Wushuang’s Dharma Bone?”

“Hmm? You’re interested in him?” The son of the King of Hell continued to toy with the already dizzy monster before he stuffed it into his Qiankun Bag. Sucking on the pacifier, he added, “I told you that this man is always a well-prepared man. If you want to be reborn, you need the help of both hell and Light of Buddha. He will undoubtedly hold something in reserve to fight with destiny. The string of Bodhi is probably his last piece of Dharma Bone. Back then, he knew that you needed Dharma Bone for your reincarnation. Hence, he removed the Dharma Bone in his body, hoping to attract the brilliant Light of Buddha.”

Helian Wei Wei mulled over the boy’s words before she looked into the son of the King of Hell’s crimson eyes. “You have constantly talked about our destinies from the very beginning. Destiny brings him to mistake someone else as me, right?”

“You’re smart.” The son of the King of Hell continued to suck on his pacifier. “I’ve always liked to befriend intelligent people. He’s the Bodhi who has sailed across the sea of agony. Every man had to walk past him before they could turn into Buddha. Do you understand the meaning behind this? He used to represent Buddhism. However, when Buddhism forbade the existence of anomaly on earth, he helped you to reincarnate and reborn. His act rebelled against Buddhism and he became one of their enemies. But, as he is a quick-witted man, he has prepared an alternative strategy to save himself. Regardless of your identity, that is the only way to bring the real Phoenix back to life. But, of course, he will live with regret if he mistakes someone else as you.”

Helian Wei Wei remained silent.

The son of the King of Hell raised his brows. “Why? Have you recalled something? Please share.”

“Nothing much.” Helian Wei Wei lowered her gaze. “Someone told me before that, to deceive the others, the man has to first deceive himself. For instance, I lost my memories because my Dharma Bone was removed. If that’s the case, could Jing Wushuang possibly have lost a part of his memories too?”

The hat on the head of King of Hell’s son moved as he shook his head. “I’ve never pondered upon this question.”

“His real body is a Bodhi. Therefore, his most important bone will definitely be Bodhi too.” Helian Wei Wei tightened her grip around the Dharma Bone. “Why did he leave his most important bone unattended?”

The son of the King of Hell widened his eyes. “You’re saying that…”

“We have to locate the magical mirror first.” Helian Wei Wei grinned. “You’re right. All the answers are hidden in the past.”

The son of the King of Hell nodded before he coughed gently. “I have to make it clear that I’ve never intended to separate you and the Great Demon King. If you discover any difference between the past and the present, you must remember that you are the Great Demon King’s wife. Your love should never waver!”

“You told me to never tolerate domestic abuse and divorce him as soon as possible.” Helian Wei Wei threw a nonchalant glimpse at him.

The son of the King of Hell chuckled. “When you’re with him, he will only abuse you. However, when you’re not by his side, he will abuse every living person and will most probably take their lives too…”
