Grudge Breaker

Chapter 392 General Barbie -
"Speak up if you have something to say, you, don't come any closer."

Looking at the "Song Weichen" in front of him, Mo Tingfeng felt the urge to run away for the first time.

"Mr. Mo, your reaction is a bit too..."

"Li Kan" stopped, looked at himself with a wronged expression, pouted, and his sharp general eyes were filled with an inappropriate "resentment," which made Mo Tingfeng's skin crawl.

"No, no, Weiwei, cough... It's too sudden, let me adjust for a bit, just a moment."

Mo Tingfeng subconsciously stepped back, while glancing out of the corner of his eye at Gu Cangyue, who was still meditating and concealing his divine sense, completely unaware of his surroundings. For the first time, he envied him so much...
.
Half an incense stick's time.

Song Weichen decided to swap souls with Li Kan. Seeing the reluctance and worry on Mo Tingfeng's face, she tiptoed and casually put her arm around his shoulder like a buddy.
"Mr. Mo, your expression right now looks exactly like that 'sullen face' meme, you know?"

"Don't you understand me? I'm such a selfish person. I'm definitely not doing this to help Sichen Mansion get rid of trouble, let alone to save Old Longjing. It's purely to get off work early. I really can't stand this godforsaken place for even a second longer."

"So please help me out. If you see the necromancer later, you'd better kill him outright. Don't let him get away again, understand?"

"slight……"

Mo Tingfeng felt a lump in his throat. Even now, she was still pretending to be relaxed, still trying to ease his guilt. But the more she acted this way, the more indebted he felt.

Fate is mostly a giant whirlpool.

He tried his best to push her away from danger, but it backfired; she was instead drawn into the center of the vortex even faster.

Mo Tingfeng took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

The Cursed Blood Case is shrouded in mystery and intricately intertwined; Goddess Peak is the last chance to decisively resolve the situation! From this perspective, Song Weichen's choice is not only wise but also urgent!

……

"Okay, Weiwei, promise me that after the souls are swapped, your biggest task is to protect yourself from getting hurt. Leave everything else to me."

"Okay, okay," Song Weichen patted his shoulder. "Xiao Mo, I believe in you! Go for it! You'll take down that mere necromancer in one go!"

After saying that, he turned around with a grin and went to find Li Kan. When he saw Li Kan smiling at him meaningfully, his arrogance immediately diminished.

Soul swapping... What kind of cliché plot is this? And can you even switch back smoothly after swapping bodies? Holy crap, could I have fallen for this dead prince's scheme to possess my body and return to life...?

She walked towards Li Kan with a sheepish expression, each step feeling like a thousand pounds. "Forget it, I trust those I employ," Song Weichen shook her head forcefully, clearing these distracting thoughts.
"You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub, and you can't catch a rogue without risking your wife. Li Kan, let's begin..."

Li Kan glanced at her.
"Don't look down, it makes you look shorter."

"Besides, it is clearly I who suffer the loss. With your broken body, it would be an injustice to my soul to replace you."

"Alright, alright, you're putting a big Buddha statue in a dilapidated temple. I'm sorry to trouble you."

Song Weichen didn't want to argue with him.

"I appreciate your malice. Let's begin."
.
"Then I will trouble Lord Sichen to protect me."

As soon as the words left his lips, Li Kan took out a silver needle and pierced the middle fingers of both of them, drawing out their blood. He then used their blood to draw talismans on each other's palms and smeared their blood on Song Weichen's lips. After that, he picked up Song Weichen's finger, smeared the remaining blood on his own lips, and then released her.

"This...this is it?"

Song Weichen glanced at the scribbles on her palm, then looked at Li Kan with a puzzled expression—she didn't feel anything at all? Was this jerk playing a trick on her?

"Madam, please don't worry, there's only one last step left."

Li Kan's lips curled into a smile, and he pulled Song Weichen closer.
"When souls and consciousnesses are exchanged, they must use breath to facilitate the process."

Without warning, he lightly kissed her—though he didn't actually touch her, it was practically the same as kissing her.

"Clap!"

Thunder rumbled again outside the cave, much like Mo Tingfeng's mental state had collapsed.

"Li Kan, don't force me."

Before the words were even finished, the blade in Mo Tingfeng's hand was already at the back of Li Kan's neck—almost at the same instant, Li Kan forcefully pushed Song Weichen away.

The latter, without any force, stumbled and fell heavily to the ground.

"Stinking rogue!"

Ignoring the sword at the back of her neck, "Li Kan" bent down, grabbed "Song Weichen" by the collar, and pulled her up. A fist the size of a sandbag was about to land on her face!

At this point, even the slow-witted Mo Tingfeng knew that the two had switched souls; Li Kan was now Song Weichen, and Song Weichen had become Li Kan.

"slight!"

Mo Tingfeng rushed to block, even though he knew rationally that the current "Li Kan" was the real Song Weichen, he still couldn't help but protect "Song Weichen" in front of him.

He gripped "Li Kan's" wrist to prevent Song Weichen from harming her body, then turned to look at the person he was protecting behind him.

Are you alright? Did you get hurt in the fall?

……

Song Weichen looked at Mo Tingfeng as if she had swallowed a fly.

"Lord Sichen is really attached to appearances."

She stood up, sneering and disgusted, avoiding Mo Tingfeng's protection.

"She could be blown over by the wind; this lady's appearance is truly useless."

"Li Kan!" "Li Kan," who had been stopped by Mo Tingfeng, stomped his feet in anger. "Don't pretend you're innocent after getting the benefit. You have to kiss me to switch souls. Why didn't you tell me this beforehand!"

"My dear wife, we are a proper married couple, kissing is just a normal thing, isn't it?"

"you!!!"

Seeing that "Li Kan" was about to attack again, "Song Weichen" not only did not avoid him, but instead pressed her face close to "Li Kan's" face.
"Come on, hit me here, I promise I won't dodge."

Song Weichen was furious and, disregarding whether it was her own body or not, was about to strike. Mo Tingfeng, however, couldn't bear to do it and once again stepped in front to protect her.

"Calm down."

"You're protecting him? You scoundrel, look closely, I am the real Song Weichen!"

"Li Kan" pouted, looking aggrieved, and tried to tug at Mo Tingfeng's sleeve. With his nearly 1.9-meter height and Song Weichen's expression, the impact was simply too great; Mo Tingfeng instinctively leaned back tactically.

"Speak up if you have something to say, you, don't come any closer."

This is the scene at the beginning.

Clearly sensing his resistance, Song Weichen became even more frustrated. "Hmph, men really are all visual creatures!"

She summoned Xiao Biezhi from the Puppet Realm; in crucial moments, her own phantom spirit was the most reliable.

"You little good-for-nothing, let's go." She said, and headed towards the cave entrance.

The little meatball was clearly stunned, hovering blankly in mid-air, looking at "Li Kan" who had summoned him, and then at "Song Weichen" who was being protected by Mo Tingfeng and was watching the show with a look of amusement.

"Huh? What's going on? I'm so confused."

The little creature, with its chubby belly, stared at "Li Kan's" back for three seconds, then nodded emphatically and flew onto "Song Weichen's" shoulder.

"Shuai Shuai, although I, the mouse, have made a pact with you in place of Big Sister, I will always be Big Sister's mouse. You want to elope with me? I'm not going."

……

"Fine," Song Weichen thought, "Illusionary Spirit promised to never leave me. I never imagined that just by changing my appearance, even that short-legged guinea pig would betray me."

"Open your beady eyes and look carefully! I'm your boss! I've swapped souls with Li Kan!"

The 1.9-meter-tall man exuded Song Weichen's tone and physique, causing both Mo Tingfeng and Xiao Biezhi to shudder.

"It's spicy, it stings my eyes..."

With a lift of its small, chubby paw, it buried its head in it.

"Dad! I feel a little sorry for you."

……

Well, Mo Tingfeng felt a little sorry for himself at that moment...

Although he rationally knew that Song Weichen had made great sacrifices to solve the case, emotionally... he really didn't want to get close to this General Barbie in front of him...

Sigh, well, as a mature man, reason must prevail in the end.

Mo Tingfeng tucked the little chubby girl onto his shoulder, walked up to "Li Kan," and somewhat "politely" and "ingratiatingly" placed the little ball of flesh on his shoulder.

“Little Biezhi, protect Big Sister well. Next, the Prince and I will set up an array to summon Ma Zhenchun. If everything goes smoothly, Weiwei and the Prince's souls will be able to switch back soon.”

The little ball of flesh stood on "Li Kan's" shoulder, and it felt like the field of vision and height were different. How to put it? It was a breadth that I had never felt when standing on Song Weichen.

"Dad, it seems like the current female boss is so strong that she doesn't need my protection..."

Upon hearing this, "Li Kan" sneered and glanced sideways at the little guinea pig on his shoulder.

"Thank you so much! Saitama is like, 'I went bald and became stronger,' but what am I? I changed my gender and became stronger?"

"Well...you're right." The little meatball didn't catch the derogatory meaning in Song Weichen's words, and instead looked at "Li Kan" with some anticipation.

"Handsome big sister, I think you're strong enough to easily kill a bull right now!"

"Crack."

Li Kan lightly pinched his knuckles. "How about I practice on you, you fat rat, first?"

"Alright, Weiwei, calm down."

Perhaps it was out of habit, or perhaps it was because the man's eyes were exactly like Song Weichen's, that Mo Tingfeng overlooked appearances and, as if possessed, grasped "Li Kan's" hand.
"The prince and I are about to activate the soul-guiding array. Remember, no matter what happens, do not interfere; just protect yourself."

"Weiwei, I'm sorry. I wasn't used to it just now. I'm sorry you felt bad. It won't happen again."

Their words were as tender as honey, and their fingers were intertwined with affection—all of this happening between two tall men of similar height. Even if the little guinea pig knew the truth, it would still feel a chill run down its spine—for a moment, it even thought it was getting an electric shock…

He buried his face in his paws again.

"It's spicy, it's even more eye-watering!"
.
"Clap!"

Another clap of thunder sounded outside the cave, and at the same time, Gu Cangyue opened her eyes.

After a round of breathing exercises, he clearly felt much calmer. When he opened his eyes, he saw "Song Weichen" standing gracefully not far from him. He felt an indescribable happiness in his heart—he wished that this could last forever, with her always there whenever he looked up.

Ignoring Mo Tingfeng's reaction, Gu Cangyue flashed behind Song Weichen and gently embraced her.

"slight."
