Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess 260 Su Luxi 48

The search went on for some time. Unfortunately, n.o.body managed to find them.

After all, the woman kept casting the same spell just she could swiftly get away from them. 

To where she reappeared next?

At least, nowhere in the enemy's sight.

Even though the G.o.ddess made an unnecessary move when she revealed herself instead of quietly lurking in the shadows, the goal, to take away her prophet's family from there, was still achieved.

...

In reality, since there were only two G.o.ds in the world, even though the G.o.ddess of Light successfully brought Jiang Li's family away, the Creator actually had a method to locate her no matter where she was.

He only remembered this after regaining his senses. By then, the search had been ongoing for more than five minutes and his subordinates had reported quite the number of bad news, a few not only about the lack of results from their side but also from those confronting the Emperor.

When his anger had subsided, he connected to the divine realm and personally did the search there. A minute pa.s.sed and he finally sensed some irregular fluctuations in the mana of the divine realm. Without any hesitation, he hurriedly tracked it.

Actually, a while ago, this was also how the G.o.ddess traced his location, scanning the divine realm and checking where an abnormal movement of mana was occurring.

Now, he was the one applying the same principle to her. A matter which could only be blamed on the fact that even though their vessels could be considered mortals and could exist in the material world, the divine power used to maintain the bodies were still from the divine realm. There were only two people in that place, so of course, if the Creator was not the one pulling out mana from there, it could only be the G.o.ddess. 

"There you are, rat," he sneered and then commanded half of his forces to go with him to the east.

A chasing game ensued after, with the Creator acting as the cat, and the G.o.ddess the fleeing mouse. 

...

While this was happening, something was also taking place outside of that world.

Once again trapped inside the blue gem of the fortune-teller's earring was the fortune teller's son, Dong Lan, in his spirit form. He was raining curses upon his adoptive mother and venting his frustrations about his recent transfer. As he was busy erasing the b.l.o.o.d.y and pitiful scene of his death in his mind, he didn't notice that the gem had already entered a new world. A normal one, where he would start a new life oblivious to the purpose of the fortune-teller for making him do so.

...

A couple of minutes before Jiang Li made the latest requests to the system...

In the void where the fortune teller once visited a confined 'spirit', a voice rang. It was from a man, and he didn't say h.e.l.lo or whatever greeting like the fortune-teller.

"Twenty-fifth..." It began, alerting the spirit who was in the middle of the darkness, immersed in pretending to be a product of black technology towards his so-called 'host', Jiang Li. The child-like being did not answer, but he did cut off his connection with the world-hopper and let out a sound of surprise before going back to silence.

The male voice softly continued, "I have seen how he is faring... All is well... You've done a great job."

"Thanks," the spirit humbly responded. "... but this one is not worthy of the praise. I am just doing my job." 

"Hmmm... Anyway, he's back on track, which is a good thing... The only problem is that he encountered an outsider... and I think I know what this outsider wanted to tell me."

"What is it? That fortune-teller is a suspicious person. So I've been thinking we should be cautious of her and pay no heed to what she said."

The male voice answered after chuckling, "No need to be that wary. I think I know her. But you're right. We have to be cautious. No one should interrupt our business here. This is why in the next few worlds..." He paused for a while before decisively adding, "Erase his memories of the previous lives and only retain some basic awareness of his missions."

After a long while, the voice of the young boy replied in a hesitant and careful manner.

"To erase just like that... Have you really thought about it?" His tone suggested unwillingness to carry out the given orders when he reasoned out, "I'm sorry to say this, but I really don't get why we need to delete all his memories... What about his memories of the real objective... Why are we erasing them? Shouldn't we let him retain those so that he won't get out of track again?"

"There's no harm in being careful... And you are with him. You don't even worry about him committing so many mistakes. You are also setting up a few whatever rules to entertain yourself. So what are you fearing?" A low chuckle resounded after that.

The other was silent even though deep inside, it wanted to argue about the 'whatever rules' that he thought it had invented.

However, knowing arguing about something negligible with the other being was a waste of time, the child-like spirit chose to let go of the annoyance in his heart. Thinking of the real matter, he then asked, "Hey, do we really have to go this far? Remember, I only appeared in his life as a fake system because he refused to reincarnate. But he's fine now."

"It's your master who wants things this way. He wants to a.s.sist that woman in ascending. Who are we to go against his wishes? Anyways, if you think my measure is not appropriate, sorry, but keep your opinion to yourself. Your master has designated me as the one in charge. I am the one to be followed with regard to this matter." The tone of the unseen man was indifferent this time.

He bade his farewell not long after. "I'll be going now."

However, the spirit was still busy digesting the words the other party said, so he was reluctant to let him go. In case there were things he would have to clarify later, who would he ask then?

"Wait... Before leaving, aren't you going to tell what's going on at your end?"

"There's not much happening up there." The male voice answered in a way rendering the child-like spirit to imagine a guy in a long moon-white robe shrugging, "It's a peaceful era. So I was a bit surprised when that fortune-teller said there will be a change in the heavens. But I realize there's no harm in speeding up the process. If you can do something so that guy could complete a thousand or so worlds, do it."

"... A thousand or so worlds... You made it sound so easy." The spirit grumbled with mild irritation. "Is that all? When are you going to check on us again?"

"I don't know. Anyway, you are here to oversee and I'm sure you will do your best since you're extremely devoted to your master. I won't be contacting you in a thousand or so years."

"... So irresponsible."

Not saying any more reply, the presence of the person then vanished without a trace, leaving the gloomy being in the caged of darkness.

A sigh resounded after, and it sounded a bit tragic since the voice seemed to be from someone so young.
