The spirit was Qing Ning's best friend since childhood, but she died in an accident.
In a state of extreme grief, Qing Ning awakened her supernatural abilities and successfully placed her spirit within her heart.
The spirit has been inside Qing Ning's body for fifteen years, and now all the necessary materials have been prepared.
Qingning decided that it was time to give the spirit its own body.
The spirit knows that the price to pay for resurrection is terrifying.
Even with Qing Ning's status, it took her many years working in the Assassin's Hall to barely accumulate enough.
The thought that Qing Ning had sacrificed so many years of her life for her sake filled the spirit with nothing but gratitude.
But she also knew that the reason Qing Ning was working so hard to complete the mission was to revive her.
Therefore, moved by the situation, the spirit decided not to change Lime's wish.
Otherwise, it would be too damaging to the lime.
[...]
Within the Dragon Kingdom, in Yan Province, on Xiaokun Mountain.
How much longer until we reach our destination?
The spirit thumped its legs, which were a little sore from climbing the mountain, and asked in its mind, "I've been climbing for two hours, I'm exhausted."
After leaving Yan Province Airport, they rushed to Xiaokun Mountain. According to Qingning, a Taoist temple on Xiaokun Mountain preserves a secret method that allows spirits to leave one's body.
Of course, the tiring task of climbing mountains was naturally left to the spirit, that great traitor.
Qing Ning lay comfortably in the soul space, even having the leisure to watch American TV series, as if she wasn't the one who came here to find a body.
This is what makes Lime's superpowers unique.
While changing bodies, one can also allow a spirit to take control of one's body and have the spirit do some hard labor in one's place.
"Hey, what's the rush? Honestly, it's just climbing a mountain. I'll tell you when we get there. You're making such a fuss over a simple climb, are you even a man?"
Qing Ning waved her hand impatiently, her two tofu-white legs swinging in the air. "You're disturbing my show, you bitch!"
"Nonsense, I'm not a man, I'm a woman! You can lie in there and not exert any effort, so you definitely won't get tired."
The spirit rolled its eyes and said irritably, "I'm like a damn fool, stuck here climbing a mountain in the middle of the day, not even having time to eat."
The spirit sighed again. Qing Ning was like a little princess, and she herself was the maidservant beside the little princess.
How could a maid disobey the princess's orders?
Qingning ignored the spirit's words and happily watched her American drama.
"By the way, didn't you say before... that you would have to stay in your new body for half a year before you could return to your own body?"
"Does that mean I won't be able to see you for another six months?"
The spirit was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered what Qing Ning had told her before.
Yes, it's clearly inside my body and it'll take half a year to come out, but judging from Qingning's tone, how come it can come out now?
"That's under normal conditions; it takes about six months to fully take control of the body."
Within the soul space, Qing Ning casually waved her hand, and a red lollipop quietly appeared in her small hand.
Qingning skillfully tore open the wrapper, popped the lollipop into her mouth, and tossed the wrapper behind her as she continued watching her American TV series.
Behind Lime, numerous candy wrappers lay scattered haphazardly, clearly all Lime's handiwork.
“I am different. I have a secret technique in the Taoist temple on this mountain that can allow you to come out ahead of time.”
The spirit nodded, then suddenly realized something and said, "You mean... I could have come out from the beginning?"
"yes."
Qing Ning nodded, glanced at the spirit with a puzzled look, and said, "Didn't I tell you?"
"No!"
The spirit's lips twitched, and several black lines appeared on its face. "You never told me that I could come out early!"
"Then just forget about it. Oh dear, why are you, a grown woman, being so petty?"
Qing Ning shook her head, her eyes filled with disdain.
"Okay, you're good."
The spirit rolled its eyes in exasperation. "By the way, how are you going to get out later? If I change bodies, will it affect you?"
“No, you can change it if you want, but… your body is at the Assassin Hall branch. I’ve found one for you. Remember to come find me after your spirit leaves my body,” Qing Ning said.
"Alright, that's the only way."
The spirit agreed.
"Ding-dong—"
The spirit sensed a slight vibration from the phone in its pocket.
The spirit took out her phone, and a text message appeared on her screen. It was a message sent by the Academic Affairs Office of Yan Province University.
"Damn it, I've already graduated, why do I have to go back to school?!"
The spirit was dumbfounded; her name was actually on the text message!
"I guess... it was arranged by the leader, since we went to find him together, and he discovered you too."
Qing Ning rested her chin on her hand and said thoughtfully, "But... this old guy really has a wicked sense of humor, actually wanting both of us to go to university?"
"That's fine too. Since we're in Yan Province anyway, I can take you to meet Luo Chen."
Qing Ning smiled and then said, "However, you should be mentally prepared in advance. Luo Chen is very abstract. If you are not prepared, I'm afraid you will be scared by him."
"Pfft, really?"
The spirit almost burst out laughing, then snorted and said, "Since she's your childhood sweetheart, then... I'll reluctantly agree."
"Oh dear, you've been wronged. Don't forget, I'm older than you! You should call me 'older sister'."
Qing Ning chuckled to herself, mocking the spirit.
"He's only two years older..."
The spirit said weakly.
"Even one day longer is still a big day."
Qingning then carefully pointed out the grammatical errors in the spirit's words.
Immediately, Qingning scrolled through the text message, her gaze landing on the name Sanran. Her beautiful eyes narrowed instantly. "Strange..."
"What's wrong?"
The spirit, somewhat puzzled, asked.
"It's nothing, you can go up the mountain first."
Qingning shook her head, keeping the matter to herself. "You're such a grown-up, don't be so curious."
"Fine, whatever you say goes."
The spirit sighed helplessly and then embarked on the journey up the mountain.
Qingning, who had won the verbal battle, was instantly happy and continued watching her show while humming a song.
After arguing with Qing Ning, the spirit body had a chance to rest for a while and now felt full of energy, no longer as tired as before.
