Heibai Daxian is not a ghost.

"I died unjustly, so after death, I didn't go through reincarnation and my soul lingered in the human world," Ghost Snake Yan Zhao continued telling his story.

"One day, I accidentally met Black and White Immortals. They caught me and said they wanted to kill me and scatter my soul. After pleading with them, they asked if I wanted to be resurrected. Of course, I said yes. They told me that it was possible but only if I obeyed their orders. What could be more wonderful than being alive? So of course, I agreed," Yan Zhao spoke while grinning wickedly as he revealed a sharp fang from his snake mouth.

"So they stuffed you into the body of a Python reticulatus? Didn't you resist?" I sneered and asked.

"I had no chance to resist," Yan Zhao smiled bitterly and continued: "They said that when doing business before my death, I engaged in speculation and did many evil deeds besides keeping a mistress which made me morally corrupt; therefore only suitable for becoming a snake again. So they put me inside the body of a large snake while helping me resurrect at the same time by scattering its soul completely so that now it's truly mine."

Yan Zhao stole a glance at me proudly saying: "But there are benefits to becoming a snake too! Do you know snakes are naturally lustful creatures? Moreover, with my profound Taoist skills combined with this huge size...hehehe...ever since being reborn as a snake king here on Mount Modu all female snakes belong to my harem! Whichever one I want to play with is mine! The best part is when once in the mountains; there was this woman whom upon seeing her scared unconsciousness out of her wits then took advantage of her while she slept discovering how much better it felt compared to when still alive because each male serpent has two penises, you know? When one gets tired, I can use the other. Hehehe..."

"You're disgusting! And I've noticed that all of you ghostly spirits have a hobby of using animal bodies to rape women," I said with some frustration while looking at Yan Zhao.

"It's not my fault. After all, in my mind, I'm still human," Yan Zhao shrugged and continued: "Besides, Black and White Immortals already told me that as long as I obeyed them, whatever actions were taken would be fine. So later on, I tried it out with humans too. These are just small things though; after being resurrected what I wanted most was revenge but when seeing my wife working hard managing her business while taking care of our children without complaint made me soft-hearted so couldn't bring myself to do it anymore especially since this whole thing was originally my fault anyway. Therefore, eventually forgave her and began living peacefully as the Snake King."

"You're quite bold," reaching this point; unable to resist any longer asked Yan Zhao: "What do Black and White Immortals look like? Can you describe them for me? Have you seen them again after becoming a snake?"

"They looked very ordinary, one wearing white clothes with a gray-black complexion and a fierce appearance, the other wearing black clothes with fair skin and a sharp expression. They were similar to the legendary Black and White Impermanence, but they were still human after all. Therefore, they weren't as terrifying as Black and White Impermanence. The reason why they could catch me was because of their skills. They claimed to be hidden masters who roamed the world just to exorcise demons. After turning me into a snake, they never appeared again," said Gui She Yan Zhao.

"Wait," I couldn't help interrupting Gui She Yan Zhao's words when I heard this. Then I frowned at it and asked: "What did you say? You mean that Black and White Impermanence are humans? Are you sure they're humans?"

This was significant information! Before this, I had always thought that Black and White Impermanence were ghosts; I didn't expect them to be human beings instead.

"Of course, they're humans! Don't you know?" Gui She Yan Zhao looked at me doubtfully.

"It's nothing; I'm just asking." I furrowed my brows then asked it: "Do you know where we can find Black and White Impermanence?"

"I don't know about that; their whereabouts are unknown." Gui She Yan Zhao replied.

After obtaining almost all the information available from it, I told Gui She Yan Zhao: "Okay then, you can go now. But let me remind you that right now you're a ghost snake with an inner core so your strength is quite good. However, please don't harm innocent people because someday karma will come back around."

"Don't worry; I won't hurt anyone," said Gui She Yan Zhao while twisting its bloated body before leaving. "I'll go home now and only protect my wife and children from now on. I won't do anything else."

"That's good. Since you have a heart for doing good, let me give you another piece of advice. Mount Mo Du will soon change; something big is going to happen in the near future. If you don't want to be involved, it's best to stay away and come back after the disaster has passed," I said.

"Thank you," it turned its head and looked at me helplessly before saying: "Although you broke my physical body."

"When two tigers fight, one will get hurt. It's not my fault." I smiled then said: "You can go now; perhaps this is an opportunity for a new beginning."

"Hehe," that bastard cursed me in his heart then twisted its body and left.

I took a deep breath and slowly opened my eyes before looking at Chi Qing Shuai and asking him: "How are things going?"

"There was nothing abnormal about him. He was a businessman who had a mistress and was burned to death by his wife. Afterwards, he was stuffed inside the body of a python by the Black and White Immortals. However, I did gain an important piece of information from our conversation. The Black and White Immortals are not spirits, they are living people!" I paused for a moment before continuing, "Live people?" My words caused both Chiqing Shuai and JIETOU to be taken aback for a moment, then they both pondered, "How can they be live people?" "So I am also very curious," I looked at Chiqing Shuai and said, "Master, do you think there is any mystery behind this?" "There shouldn't be much mystery, those two people, unless there's something unexpected, should also be ghost possessions. The only difference is that their spirits are not captured, but are coming out of Motu Mountain. If I am not mistaken, they should be ghost possessions that are about to reach the state of crossing the tribulation, their power is very strong, but they will not be struck by heavenly thunder, so they were sent out to do this job," Chiqing Shuai said, furrowing his brow, "I just don't know if they have any other goals. If there are no other conspiracies, then we can just mind our own business and do what we need to do."
