I Became a Monk in Japan and Exorcised Demons of Other’s Housewives

Chapter 26: Disadvantages of Joyful Meditation!

She turned into a vengeful spirit and personally witnessed that scumbag using the same method to kill her parents and seize her family’s assets.

Because of her intense resentment, her soul could not find peace after death.

Eventually, one day, she transformed into a demon.

Since she was killed by that treacherous couple, after becoming a demon, the thing she hated most was beautiful men and women.

Whenever she saw these lonely young men and women, she would take on her demon form and reveal herself.

Using the same method, she would turn others into monsters just like her.

This had been going on for several years.

However, for some unknown reason, the number of times she could manifest was limited.

She could only appear when the yin energy was at its strongest each month.

And each time, she could only punish one person.

It seemed as if some unseen rule was binding her, preventing her from acting recklessly.

However, this rule could be broken under special circumstances.

That is—when encountering someone who could see her.

Although most of the time she couldn’t manifest, it didn’t mean she didn’t exist.

It was just that, for certain reasons, she couldn’t appear and couldn’t harm ordinary people.

It seemed that the world she existed in and this world were in completely different dimensions.

Entities from different dimensions could not interfere with each other.

But if someone could see her, it meant they had appeared in the same dimension as her.

Naturally, she would be able to harm those who saw her.

Although such people were rare, over the years, she had encountered a few.

However, most of them were just ordinary people with slightly stronger spiritual sensitivity.

They could see her but couldn’t harm her.

As for someone like Lu Jin, a special existence, this was the first time she had encountered one.

“Tsk!”

After hearing the slit-mouthed woman’s words, Lu Jin couldn’t help but click his tongue.

A love-struck rich girl falling for a scumbag with ulterior motives.

He originally thought this kind of story would only appear in brainless soap operas—he never expected to encounter it in real life.

However, more than that, he was interested in something else.

An ordinary person, just by harboring resentment, had transformed into an immortal demon.

How did that work?

Lu Jin curiously asked the woman,

“The process of turning into a demon?”

The slit-mouthed woman was momentarily stunned and shook her head.

She only remembered dying full of resentment, with thoughts of revenge filling her mind.

Then, her consciousness fell into darkness.

When she woke up, she had become what she was now.

If there was anything unusual—

During the time her consciousness was silent, she seemed to have heard a voice.

But the voice was too faint, and she couldn’t understand what it was saying.

After that voice, a beam of light suddenly appeared, and then she woke up.

“A voice, a beam of light?”

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow but didn’t dwell on it.

After all, judging by her confused expression, she probably didn’t even know how she became a demon.

Still, he silently made a note of it in his mind.

Lu Jin didn’t continue to focus on that question but instead asked another, “What’s your name?”

Even though she had become a demon, she was once human, so she must have had a name.

Compared to calling her ‘slit-mouthed woman’, he preferred to use her real name.

The slit-mouthed woman fell silent for a moment, as if thinking, or perhaps recalling something.

After a while, she softly uttered a name, “Tanaka Saya.”

Tanaka Saya?

That name sounds quite decent.

Lu Jin nodded and continued asking, “Do you still remember where your home is?”

Since this woman was once rich and had all her assets stolen—

Then, as long as he found her home, wouldn’t he also find her enemies?

Lu Jin still planned to help the slit-mouthed woman find peace—no, he should say, to help Tanaka Saya.

Resentment was like an inner demon. It might seem harmless at times, but it could erupt at any moment.

One second, she might be chatting and laughing, and the next, she could suddenly become an irrational beast.

Once someone fell into madness, their humanity was lost.

Although his Vajra prayer beads were imbued with Vajra’s power, naturally restraining all evil energy and resentment—

It was better to be safe than sorry.

If this woman suddenly lost control at a critical moment, he wouldn’t be able to handle it.

The only way to keep her by his side for Buddhist cultivation without fear of her going berserk was to dissolve her resentment.

Not that his mind was full of discussing Buddhist teachings with female believers.

A normal man has normal needs.

Finding a female devotee every now and then for physical offerings isn’t unreasonable, right?

But ever since he fused with that Vajra Scepter, he had clearly felt his desires and needs increasing at an alarming rate.

Like a raging fire, constantly burning his body and mind.

Only by practicing the Joyful Meditation could he temporarily escape this torment.

This change—he didn’t even need to think about it—it was obviously a side effect of the Joyful Meditation.
