My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Panda Novel

Bai Qiao was surprised by her question. “This technique… was created by Xin Han. It was to help me return to my fox body after my immortal ascension.”

“That means to say, he taught you this technique?”

Bai Qiao nodded and continued, “When he me brought along for the ascension, he had to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation for the two of us. I was already heavily injured when I was in the Lower realm. So he had to create this technique…”

“Oh…” Shen Ying turned to look at Yi Qing. He immediately understood what she meant and his expression darkened.

“Why are you asking this?” Lonemoon and the others were puzzled.

“Creating a technique is not that easy.” Yi Qing explained. His sword technique was also self-created, but it was created only after years of hard work and experimentation. Even now, he was still making improvements to it. Creating immortal techniques involved the same process. “Moreover, none of the celestial emperors in the immortal realm have heard of this soul swapping technique.”

Everyone’s expression changed upon hearing this.

“Xin Han was only an Earth Immortal when he had his first immortal ascension. Yet he was able to come up with this technique under pressure when Bai Qiao was badly wounded.” Yi Qing frowned and said, “Unless he has God-given talents, or …”

“He knew this technique from the start!” Shen Ying said, completing the sentence for him.

“That’s not possible!” Bai Qiao’s expression changed. She seemed to catch their meaning. Shaking her head vigorously, she said, “He created this technique for me… He said that he would love me no matter how I changed. He won’t lie to me!”

“Let me guess.” Shen Ying ignored her and continued. “You said you did not know how you entered that Yun Xuan’s body. That means you were only a soul in the lower realm. What is the procedure for souls descending to the lower realm?”

Everyone fell silent for a moment before turning to look at Chen Ge.

“…” Why are all of you looking at me? Chen Ge looked baffled, but he answered nevertheless, “Naturally they would have to enter the Three Realm’s Samsara and be reincarnated.”

“That… that was an accident!” Bai Qiao’s face turned increasingly pale and he body started to sway.

“What if it was not?” Shen Ying continued, “A cultivator from the mortal realm accidentally finds a wandering immortal soul who needs to be reincarnated. And coincidentally, this cultivators knows a soul swapping technique. This wandering soul is a female. What is more, this cultivator happens to have a lover who is unable to withstand the immortal ascension. What do you think he would do?”

“Swap souls!” A look of stunned realization spread across everybody’s faces. “Once in the immortal body, she would be able to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation and become an immortal directly.” She could bypass the immortal ascension and become Stygian Immortal once she entered the immortal realm!”

“Yes.” Shen Ying nodded her head. “But this technique has a flaw. There was no guarantee that it would work, that was why…”

“That was why Yun Xuan died in the soul swapping process!” Lonemoon said, “Xin Han made a mess of the matter and then pretended he knew nothing about it!” Holy shit! He had seen many shameless people but this fellow took the cake!

“He needed the Spirit Convening Lamp because he knew there was a flaw in the soul swapping technique.” Shen Ying munched her apple and looked at Bai Qiao and Xuan Tong. “I guess the flaw is… is that for it to work, it requires that the primordial spirits of both parties be highly unstable.”

“That explains why, during Little Tong’s Heavenly Tribulation, her body was accidentally swapped with Bai Qiao’s!” exclaimed Qi Chengyu. Little Tong’s primordial spirit had been damaged by the last bolt of Wildfire, while Bai Qiao had also damaged hers while trying to save Xin Han, hence the two were able to swap their bodies successfully!

Shen Ying finished munching her fruit and switched to another one. Looking at Bai Qiao, who was now as pale as a sheet, she said slowly, “You are not the one responsible for possessing his wife’s body. You were caught in their scam. You were the one who was deceived for ten thousand years, not him!”

Bai Qiao back away in despair. Her legs gave way and she fell to the floor. She lay there lifelessly but her tears gushed out like water from a broken dam.

Everyone let out a sigh. Perhaps Bai Qiao herself had had her suspicions about the matter, but love had blinded her from seeing the truth.

What Xin Han said about taking revenge for his Dao partner simply did not make sense. If he had really loved Yun Xuan, he could not have failed to tell the real Yun Xuan from the fake. He had kept on with the pretense on account of Bai Qiao being the daughter of Emperor Bai Ti.

Xin Han was not heartless because of his practice of the Heartless Dao, the only person he loved was himself. He had chosen to abandon Yun Xuan to achieve immortal ascension, so naturally, he had no qualms abandoning Bai Qiao now!

Lonemoon looked at the devastated Bai Qiao and shook his head. It looked as if he would not get any more answers out of her today. Turning to Xuan Tong and Yu Hong, he instructed, “Take her back. Inform Emperor Bai Ti about this matter and ask him to fetch her back.”

“All right!” Yu Hong answered. With Xuan Tong’s help, she carried Bai Qi out of the room. Qi Chengyu and the other disciples left as well, as did Chen Ge…

Xuan Tong looked back at the man following her. She frowned and said reflexively, “Scram!”

“OK.” Chen Ge turned back and sat down.

Shen Ying: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Lonemoon: “…”

What happened to this child? Even the script had changed. The female lead was supposed to have a one-sided crush on the male lead, but now the roles seem to have reversed. And wasn’t Chen Ge supposed to be trying to save his disciple? Why was he following her instead?

“Er… It looks like we can’t take the risk of Xuan Tong and Bai Qiao swapping their souls back?” Lone coughed awkwardly and stole a look at Chen Ge. The changes to the plot was getting too weird for him. They could not simply beat the two girls up to damage their primordial spirits just for the sake of swapping their souls back. They could only wait for Bai Ti to come and let the guardians of the girls decide on the matter. “But at least this problem has a solution.”

“What solution?” Shen Ying asked suddenly.

“What do you mean?”

“That Sin fellow…”

“It’s Xin, Xin Han!” Lonemoon’s mouth twitched in exasperation. You can’t change a person’s name at will!

“Yes, that’s right. If he was the one who masterminded the soul swapping affair, don’t you think it’s strange that he abducted Green Tea (Hui Ling)?”

Everyone stood up in shock. Shen Ying was right. If he were truly the mastermind, then being the heartless man that he was, why would he swap Hui Ling’s soul into Bai Qiao’s body? He was already a celestial emperor; he had no reason to risk offending Bai Ti.

“Master! Xuan Tong told us that the aura inside the tunnel was very strange.” Yi Qing suddenly recalled. “Do you know what it was?”

“Demonic Qi!” Before Shen Ying could answer, Chen Ge finally came out from his reverie and cut in, “There was demonic Qi inside the tunnel!”

Lonemoon: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

The crowd: “…”
