The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1149 - 263: Borrow the Dead to Resurrect the Soul

Lady Zhu’s front tooth hadn’t been replaced yet, and when she finally arrived in the Capital Jingcheng, it was to learn that her favorite daughter-in-law had died and that Pei Qin had become General Pei of Tiance. At home, she was filled with both hate and regret, wishing she could snatch that glory and wealth for Old Pei’s House. But thinking of Pei Qin and her siblings’ temperament, Lady Zhu felt hopeless. Now they had even caused Wanxiu’s death and next, they would destroy Old Pei’s House!

Ever since he heard that Pei Qin was the legendary deity general Pei Hansan, Old Pei had regretted it so deeply that it nearly made his guts turn green. If only he had endured Pei Qin’s temper back then, taken in her and her siblings, and not let them leave. It was not just about the wealth, the glory they now possessed could have been Old Pei’s House’s! But now, that glory had nothing to do with them, and the enemies they had made were so powerful that they could only look up to them helplessly, at their mercy.

"What exactly are you planning to do?" Pei Houli couldn’t help but ask. He had asked Dalang at home several times, but he hadn’t said a word.

Pei Wenchen and Pei Wenli exchanged glances for a moment, and said nothing, "Let’s go inside first and then talk!" They had called everyone here for this matter, naturally, they had to inform them all.

A group returned to the residence of Pei Wenchen and Pei Zongli, and after a series of explanations, all were immensely shocked, "Is Pei Qin really a demon?"

"Indeed! Master Duxu personally said she is not from this world, she is using ’Borrow the Dead to Resurrect the Soul’! She isn’t the real Pei Qin! The real Pei Qin died at the age of fourteen falling down a hillside, this one has possessed her body! Think about it, ever since she fell down the hillside, hasn’t her temperament changed drastically? Isn’t she nothing like the Pei Qin from before!?" Pei Wenchen asked.

Everyone looked at each other, and nodded, "Indeed, she’s different from before! Initially, we thought she was traumatized, but now it seems she’s been possessed by a demon, taken over her body!"

"The old Pei Qin was just a village girl doing housework and farm chores, she couldn’t even read, let alone lead troops to war, create mortars and bombs, fireworks!" Pei Wenli sneered coldly.

This was too incredible to believe! freēwēbnovel.com

She isn’t from their world! Possessed by a demon!?

They had always heard of spirits, but they had never truly seen them. Pei Qin, possessing someone using ’Borrow the Dead to Resurrect the Soul’, was a real and tangible event happening right before them, and it came with a different kind of hate too. They were shocked to accept this truth.

"I’ve always said that villain was a demon! The things she knows, others don’t even speak of, let alone have heard about! All bizarre and strange! It must be something only a demon could do!" Lady Zhu ground her teeth in hatred.

Grandma Zhang also twisted her face, "No wonder she’s so seductive! Turns out she’s a demon possessing someone’s body! I told you before, she even made a fuss about marrying Dalang, and then suddenly turned her back, even dared to look down on us!"

"After possessing the body, her temperament changed drastically, even daring to hit the elders." Pei Houli had personally been hit. It was too unlike the obedient and sensible Da Ya from before! It must have been the demon!

"Now you all know! Pei Qin is a demon that brings calamity to the nation! If it hadn’t been for her, this war wouldn’t have happened! Those commoners regard her as a Deity General, every battle she wins, it’s all because she uses Demon Art! Even the Emperor has been bewitched by her Demon Art to set up regulations for women to hold official positions, breaking the ancestral laws, causing chaos between men and women in the world!" Pei Wenchen said furiously, clenching his fists.

"Since she’s a demon using ’Borrow the Dead to Resurrect the Soul’, how can we mere mortals deal with her?" asked Kong’s.

"That’s easy! She was a demon before, and now possessing a body, but the body is still mortal flesh! Once exposed to the world, those commoners won’t support her anymore! Instead, they will fear and despise her, wishing she would die immediately! With Master Duxu helping, Pei Qin the demon, will only reveal her true form and be reduced to ashes!" Pei Wenchen was brewing this disaster for Pei Qin, this time determined to eliminate this demon!

Kong’s saw them all spirited, furious and hateful, and pursed her lips without saying a word. If they succeeded, it would be fine, but if they lost, they might not survive.

Pei Wenchen and Pei Wenli, however, had already determined their resolve, ready to implement this plan immediately. Even though Pei Qin held a position ’Above First Rank’ and despite her profound meritorious services and the people’s love and support, she still had enemies! They weren’t fighting alone and weren’t powerless against her! This time, Pei Qin was doomed! Because she was a demon using ’Borrow the Dead to Resurrect the Soul’!
