The Counterattack Plan of A Villain With Ten Thousand Fans - Chapter 234 (Patreon)

Chapter 234

Han Chen looked a bit conflicted, seriously recalling for a while, "There are still two papers I haven't written, I think that's all."

Ling Chunann laughed, "Just kidding."

098: "..." It's rare to meet such a straightforward protagonist.

Hearing Ling Chunann say this, Han Chen breathed a sigh of relief, "So, what do we do now?"

Ling Chunann looked at him, "I have a way to take care of him, but..."

"But what?" Han Chen hurriedly asked.

"If we take care of him, he might never be able to transcend in the afterlife," Ling Chunann sighed.

Upon hearing this, Han Chen frowned, "Is there any other way? After all, he's just a kid." And according to Ling Chunann, he hasn't harmed anyone. Although he scared them, it wasn't a crime deserving death.

Seeing his thoughts, Ling Chunann smiled, "There's another way."

"What is it?"

"Help him transcend."

"Transcend?" Han Chen mulled over the word a few times, then asked, "How to transcend?"

"Come closer," Ling Chunann said with a smile.

The method to help a ghost transcend is to resolve its attachments, which can be simple or difficult to do.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you must be able to see it.

When going downstairs, Han Chen was floating aimlessly, almost missing a step at the last few stairs. Fortunately, Ling Chunann was beside him to lend a hand, preventing a fall.

"Be careful," Ling Chunann reminded.

"Okay." Han Chen found it fascinating. When Ling Chunann touched his forehead, he felt a warm flow enter his body, and when he opened his eyes again, the world seemed different, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly what had changed. Everything looked novel.

Not long after they left, He Qingyu's mood had significantly calmed down. Han Chen noticed a beautiful girl in a white dress with long hair sitting next to her and was about to ask when he heard Ling Chunann's voice, "Chen, look."

Following the direction Ling Chunann pointed, Han Chen gasped. Under the tree outside the window stood the kid they had seen at He's house before... he followed them out.

"The malicious aura around him is getting stronger. If it's not dealt with in ten days, he might harm someone," Ling Chunann said, adding encouragingly, "Chen, you can do it!"

Han Chen was spirited, "Okay!"

098: "..." The host's skill in fooling people is getting deeper.

After being sent out by Ling Chunann, Han Chen and He Qingyu walked down two streets before he suddenly realized, "Xiao Yu, who was that girl sitting next to you just now?"

"Ah?" He Qingyu looked at him puzzled, "I've been alone downstairs the whole time, there was no one next to me. Cousin, you must have seen wrong."

"I see, maybe I did see wrong." Han Chen touched his nose and smiled, but his smile faded as he turned around. He was sure he hadn't seen wrong, but indeed, when he came back to his senses, she was gone. Thinking of the kid, Han Chen couldn't help but touch his brow.

After they left, Ling Chunann asked Mu Yunsha, who reappeared, "Yunsha, did you find anything?"

Mu Yunsha saluted Ling Chunann, "My lord, Xiao Tang and I followed that tainted energy and found it originated from an ancient tomb located beneath Ancheng. Recently, the ghostly energy within a thousand miles has increased significantly. The little ghost was likely awakened by this energy."

"Hmm, tell Xiao Tang to come back. Leave this matter alone."

Hearing this, Mu Yunsha breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, my lord."

After Mu Yunsha left, 098 couldn't help asking, "Host, why is the plot advancing ahead of schedule?" According to the original storyline, the opening of Ancheng's ancient tomb should happen three years later.

Ling Chunann shook his head, "It seems we need to go ahead of schedule. 098, keep an eye on the male lead. If there's any danger, remember to inform me."

098: "Yes." Then it realized, "You mean the male lead might be in danger?"

Impossible, right? The male lead is a central character with a protective aura.

Ling Chunann smiled, "Maybe I'm overthinking."

Two days later, Han Chen sought Ling Chunann again, "Xiaoyan, I thought the kid had committed suicide, but these two days, I asked around his neighbors and found that things might not be so simple."

"What do you mean?" Ling Chunann tilted his head and asked.

"The neighbors said that a family lived there a year ago, and they all died, but only the bodies of two adults and the

lower half of the child were found. The child's head was missing." His voice was a bit strained saying the latter part but soon regained composure, "It's said that the parents killed each other in a fight, then decapitated the child and lost the head. Since that family had just moved in and hadn't fully paid for the house, the previous owner suppressed the news to avoid difficulty selling the property. So, this incident wasn't reported, and the He family took over the house."

"But that's just what the neighbors said. I think there's more to it."

After listening, Ling Chunann nodded, "Why don't you ask the child?"

Han Chen slapped his forehead, "You're right! I'll go ask now. Thanks, Xiaoyan, I'm off."

As he was about to leave, Ling Chunann called out to him, "Wait."

Han Chen turned back, "What's up?"

Ling Chunann handed him a small mirror, "Take this with you."

This mirror was more exquisite than the one Ling Chunann had given to Han Chen before. After being enlightened by Ling Chunann a few days ago, Han Chen also began to sense the presence of spiritual energy within him and naturally felt the abundant spiritual energy emanating from the mirror. He was touched, then handed it back to Ling Chunann, "This must be very precious. I can't accept it."

Ling Chunann didn't take it back, "Just use it. Return it to me when you no longer need it."

"Okay, then consider it borrowed." Han Chen said, "Thank you, Xiaoyan."

After Han Chen left, Tang Shouxu, who had been silent, said, "Darling, so you wanted me to teach you how to make magical tools for him."

"Should I give you one tomorrow?" Ling Chunann raised an eyebrow at Tang Shouxu.

Tang Shouxu seemed tempted but shook his head, looking seriously at Ling Chunann, "Just kiss me."

Ling Chunann smiled, then climbed onto Tang Shouxu, wrapped his arms around his neck, and kissed his face, dragging out his voice, "Is that okay?"

Tang Shouxu's eyes were filled with laughter, "There's the other side too."

098: "..." These people always find new ways to show off their love. It's exhausting being a single system.

In the following days, Han Chen did not appear. After ensuring his safety, Ling Chunann did not inquire about his whereabouts until Han Chen called on the fifth day.

"Xiaoyan, the little ghost is gone," Han Chen sounded anxious, "Ever since that day at your place, he returned to his house. I've found some clues about the family tragedy these past few days. Today, when I wanted to check with him, I found him missing."

"Did he follow someone else?" Ling Chunann asked.

"No, there's no trace of yin energy in the He family's yard anymore. It's like he's disappeared," Han Chen spoke rapidly, "And I've noticed several places that used to have a bit of yin energy have now been cleansed. Could it be that another Taoist priest has cleared them all?"

Ling Chunann looked at Tang Shouxu, who shook his head. He then said into the phone, "Where are you now?"

"I'm at He Qingyu's place, Xinghe District, No. 34."

"Okay, don't leave. I'll be there soon."

After hanging up, Tang Shouxu said, "Recently, a strong force came from the southeast, but since it didn't bother my people, I didn't care. Darling, do you need my help?"

Ling Chunann shook his head, "No need, just drive there."

"Okay."

Arriving at Xinghe District, the security let them in after hearing they were visiting No. 34, but their expressions became a bit strange, probably because of Han Chen's recent actions.

After a few days of rest, He Qingyu's spirits had improved. Seeing Ling Chunann again, she was both nervous and shy, barely managing to say "hello".

"Hello, He Qingyu," Ling Chunann nodded to her, then entered the yard.

As Han Chen had said, the yard was clean, with no trace of yin energy.

"I've found out that the house's previous owners were killed by a burglar during a fight, and coincidentally, the burglar was hit by a car while fleeing. The area was under renovation last year, and the surveillance wasn't adequate, so they failed to capture the burglar's image, and the incident was overlooked, treated as a domestic dispute," Han Chen said.

Ling Chunann inwardly praised the male lead's efficiency, "So, what about the child and the suicide note?"

This question seemed to stump Han Chen, who sounded unsure, "I believe the suicide note

was written by the child, but I don't think he committed suicide. It's more likely the burglar decapitated him and took his head."

Ling Chunann hummed in response, then looked at the tree in the yard.

Han Chen followed Ling Chunann's gaze, "Is there something there?"

"Yes," Ling Chunann answered, then turned to He Qingyu, "Do you have a hoe?"

"A flower hoe? My mom uses it for gardening," He Qingyu replied.

"That will do. Could you get it for me?" Ling Chunann smiled at He Qingyu, "Thank you."

"No, not at all. I'll go get it," He Qingyu, blushing, quickly returned with a delicate little flower hoe, "Here you go."
