He Jinghua, the biological son of the background parents and the older brother with the false identity, is currently being trained as an heir by his background parents. He, the newborn, is being left to fend for himself.

In short, the new persona has money, looks, and plenty of free time, seemingly just a decorative vase, currently unattended. Since she's unfamiliar with the background characters, there won't be any significant changes to the 'plot,' and Yu Ling won't feel awkward taking over.

It couldn't be more perfect.

The system hacked the real-name registration of that live-streaming account and replaced it with a new identity. It can be said that Yu Ling's speed was astonishing.

Let's turn our attention back to the Taoist temple.

Hearing Yu Ling tell him so decisively that this person not only immediately had a candidate after reading the book, but could also quickly bring this unlucky fellow over and start having his good disciple set up the Resurrection Formation.

The speed of this efficiency left Xuan Qing in a state of bewilderment, unable to comprehend it.

"Could it be that you started looking for and trying to revive people a long time ago? Getting involved in this kind of thing rashly can cause injury. Why are you doing this?"

Xuan Qing couldn't fathom Yu Ling's thought process at all. Although he absolutely supported her being human, he couldn't help but ask her a question.

"I have heard that a powerful ghost like you has escaped the suffering of the cycle of reincarnation and is invincible to everyone and every ghost. Even a capable person like myself has few rivals."

Moreover, ghosts can exist for a very long time, unrestrained by any constraints. Why did you choose to be a human, with such a short and weak lifespan?

Yu Ling: Do you think I want this?

It's because this side quest is keeping ghosts from surviving!

However, it's impossible to tell the truth directly; one can only make up some high-sounding things to gloss over the situation.

Yu Ling thought for a moment and replied as follows:

"Humans and ghosts are different. Even if a ghost was once a human, the two are not the same kind. I just want to find my past and don't want to be devoured by my violent and cruel instincts.

Thank you to the original owner for leaving her a body without any dark history, which allows her, a demon, to speak such words so naturally and righteously.

Xuan Qing listened and said: "It's so touching, I must write it into a book." — He himself was the author.

Tan Yiman was even more dull than the original owner of the body, lacking any extra rich emotions. Yu Ling's words had no effect on her, but the mentally challenged Tan Yiman still agreed with them.

As a Taoist priest, she had seen many ghosts that Yu Ling described as having lost their humanity.

There are far too many people who disregard everything and drag everyone down with them, and there are also many ghosts that can disguise themselves. This is one of the reasons why she never lets the original owner go.

It was Yu Ling who kept trying to communicate with her, which led Tan Yiman to choose to follow her feelings and deal with the ghost.

So Tan Yiman put down her book and, in the midst of her master's embarrassing moment, became serious: "I'll go with you. We can set up the formation anywhere outside the Taoist temple."

"That would be wonderful, thank you."

Yu Ling's idea was, of course, to get things done as soon as possible. She wanted to become human as soon as possible, learn the Taoist's techniques to exterminate ghosts, finish the side quests, and survive for another year so she could start grinding for the next mission world.

After experiencing so many missions, she concluded that survival points are mostly useless and the rewards from side quests are much more valuable.

Yu Ling and Tan Yiman, one human and one ghost, said a brief goodbye to Master Xuanqing and boarded the train together to the location of their new identity, He Jingrui. This matter was quite important, and she even turned down a message from Ji Hongxi asking her to participate in the next live broadcast of a supernatural adventure.

Even if it's something the original character would do, it has to give way to the side quest.

Yu Ling didn't start her live stream on her alternate account immediately after receiving her new identity; she just sent a message saying she'd wait a couple of days.

Once this ghost identity comes to a perfect end, Yu Ling will no longer be bound by the original owner's character and identity. Apart from completing side quests, she can do whatever she likes.

—The kind of live broadcasts organized by Ji Hongxi, which relied entirely on acting, were incredibly boring for Yu Ling.

She had long wanted to quit.

On the inter-provincial train, people came and went. Yu Ling seemed to be isolated from the world, confining herself to her seat. Tan Yiman was reading her newly acquired book, and they did not disturb each other.

After getting off the bus, Yu Ling, who was already playing two roles, didn't need to waste any time. She immediately took the female lead, her helper, and hailed a taxi to give directions, speeding towards the location of her new account.

"Young lady, are you going to find your boyfriend? Everyone living in Anfengyuan is rich. They won't let you in without a resident to show you up. You should have your friend talk to the security guard beforehand or have him pick you up at the gate."

Yu Ling: "Just drop us off at the door."

At this moment, the new body 'Fu Jingrui' was already on its way.

After taking the two into his detached villa, the smaller account obediently put on a melodramatic scene in front of the female lead, pouring out their hearts to each other. The scene was as dramatic as the most popular melodramatic soap opera in the world.

Then came the part that Yu Ling had been most looking forward to: replacing her joints.

The preparations needed for a ghost to return to life are actually not many, especially for someone like Yu Ling who is compatible with both sides.

Tan Yiman quickly set up an array in the garden of the detached villa and affixed a talisman to Yu Ling to suppress the yin energy of ghosts.

Since Yu Ling had already "stolen" some knowledge when she took the wrong book, she had a slight understanding of the Taoist magic of this world. The cooperation was excellent, and the process went smoothly.

The new identity generated by the character card is a pure yang body. The yang energy in the body can interact with the original owner's yin energy like tai chi, mutually generating and restraining each other, nourishing the physical body.

Afterwards, the ghostly body that originally belonged to the owner will gradually fade over time until it disappears into nothingness.

The remaining sliver of "meager intelligence" will take the human body as its new form, or one of the two will coexist, or both will exist.

As long as the body can survive, it will gradually adapt to the soul remaining in its body until they are completely integrated.

No one could have imagined that the souls within this human and ghost were actually Yu Ling, a demon.

Therefore, the entire process of resurrection was so smooth that there was no rejection reaction at all, which was beyond even Tan Yiman's imagination.

After completing half of the side quest and successfully reviving, Yu Ling discarded Tan Yiman after using her, using the excuse that she needed to adjust to her new body.

Then, having acquired a healthy and handsome male body, he began to enjoy the long-lost high-quality life. Look at the luxurious amenities in this villa—this is the life he'd always dreamed of!
