Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 59: Su Qingyi

Li Mo frowned at the item he dredged from the river.

Because of it, the living rooms temperature dropped by ten degrees, giving off a bone chilling feeling.

It was the same item that the smart wraith used to recover its power.

No wonder you kept some of your memories. You understood life and death because of this Nine Yin Body.

What Li Mo fished out was actually a womans corpse.

The whole body was tied in iron wire and a heavy iron weight was fastened to it. When Li Mo found her, she was actually in a box covered in iron. 

This only led to one conclusion, homicide.

Her body was intact and, if it werent for the purple marks left behind by the iron wire, she would look no different from a living person.

But all of this wasnt enough to determine her time of death. Because of the very rare Nine Yin Body, she would never change even after a century, so long as it was put away.

This was the reason behind the smart wraiths constant return when fighting other wraiths.

This is Li Mo flipped the body and noticed on her snow white back a talisman.

Soul Exterminating Talisman!

Li Mo was moved, The culprit was truly vicious and knew fully well the Nine Yin Bodys ability. The Nine Yin wraith would never mature and, with time, would die under the effect of this talisman.

Such cruelty!

Li Mo now realized why Nine Yin Bodys wraith was so weak when fighting against other wraiths. A true Nine Yin Body wraith would be as strong as a millennia wraith even before starting cultivation.

Removing the talisman from the body is useless since it was carved into the soul. You mustve gone through hellish torture day after day, night after night.

Shriek~

The smart wraith let out a wail.

Luck had it you met me, that the culprit wasnt that strong, and that you still have time. Is this fate I wonder? Yao Xi, what you said

Uttering this name, Li Mo was startled then smiled.

Why is it that I have come back and the only person always on my mind isnt her, but my dear disciple

Li Mo put his hand on the corpses back. His hand glowed and the Soul Exterminating Talismans color faded until it disappeared.

Li Mo didnt stop there, however, using his qi to continue the refinement. The smart wraith shuddered and found itself unable to move.

Shriek~

Black qi tendrils floated out of the wraith and scattered like smoke.

After removing the Soul Exterminating Talisman, the smart wraith changed from black to transparent red.

Red represented hatred, while transparency pointed at Nine Yin wraiths true color.

Li Mo removed the iron wire from the corpse, then the clothes.

The red wraith hovered above the womans corpse.

You cant even possess a body? Just how can someone who knows nothing of cultivation meet such misfortune?

Li Mo saw the red wraiths act and grabbed it before squeezing it on the corpses head.

The body showed no movement.

Li Mo paused as he combed through his memories for the problem.

Even if the red wraith was the soul of this corpse, after death they would be separated as yin and yang. Without knowing possession, the wraith had no way to control its body. And when he forced it, he had to squeeze it inside. In this case let alone moving it, it couldnt even link with the corpse.

Soul Dao secret skill Undead Art.

Li Mo bit his finger and let his blood drip on the womans corpse.

A red light wrapped it and the purple bruises were slowly receding. Soon, it became white and unblemished as if it was still alive.

Undead Art was used on corpses to restore a corpse state to its previous condition, even if it had no soul.

Li Mo withdrew his arm and the corpses eyes flashed open. Her eyes flickered red.

You thank saving

She almost forgot how to speak for not using her voice for so long and even came out hoarse.

Li Mo said, Dont speak, you are still dead. In other words, you can no longer be alive.

You can now move as if alive thanks to the Undead Art I used on your corpse. But this magical art has limitations. With your souls strength, you can stay half an hour at most inside your body per day before being kicked out.

What is your name? Do you know who hurt you?

The woman corpse shivered and began sobbing.

Li Mo watched her calmly, This child doesnt look very old, and she doesnt seem to have died a long time ago either.

The girl cried for such a long time that  she was forced out of the corpse. Li Mo had no choice but to supply it with his qi and extend her time.

I am Su Qingyi. That bastard father, Su Mingyuan, killed me

The girl began retelling her story between sobs.

Before taking the Su surname, she was a Wei. Her real father was a merchant that was working with Su Corporations chairman, Su Mingyuan. It went well at first, but it wasnt long before disaster struck. Su Qingyis father and mother died in this disaster when she was only eight.

Su Mingyuan adopted her, for which she was grateful. But over time, Su Mingyuans nature came to light.

At 14, Su Qingyi was a charming beauty. And it was at this time that Su Mingyuan turned from a loving father into a lusting beast and began groping her. One time, he even pushed her down, but thankfully, his wife, Yang Hongyan, was there to stop him.

From then on, Yang Hongyan protected Su Qingyi until she turned 16. Su Mingyuan took advantage of Yang Hongyans departure on a business trip and locked Su Qingyi in a room with him. 

Su Qingyi had some understanding of the matters between a man and a woman and was begging all the time at that point. But Su Mingyuan was deaf to her pleas. In her struggles, Su Qingyi managed to phone Yang Hongyan. She thought of escaping while Su Mingyuan tried reasoning with Yang Hongyan when he overheard her.

Its not enough you killed her parents and now you want to kill her too?

Su Mingyuan smashed the phone and reached to grab Su Qingyi. She was forced to jump from the second floor and died when she met the living room floor.

Su Mingyuan went to her corpse and grabbed her disappearing soul.

I killed your parents since they didnt know what was good for them! Qingyi, havent I been treating you well all this time? Gave you food, gave you clothes. Do you know why? Because you have the Nine Yin Body. By sleeping with you often enough, my cultivation speed will increase greatly. You now have a choice. Obey me and I can bring you back to life!

Dont and I will destroy your soul, never to reincarnate again!

Su Qingyis eyes flickered red as she spat in anger, I will kill Su Mingyuan. I will definitely kill him!

I beg you immortal, please help me!

Su Mingyuan kneeled, kowtowing at Li Mos feet. She saw Su Mingyuans power and knew she was no match for him.

Li Mo helped Su Qingyi up.
