Chapter 135 - 132: Heart Moon Fox Transforms into Diao Chan
As the four companions traveled together, they arrived at Hedong where they saw a red light descending from the sky. It was a Constellation undergoing reincarnation, aiming to align with the Heavenly Dao amidst the chaotic world.
The quartet flew on clouds and reached Xinzhou, only to see a house enveloped in red light, which seemed to be the place.
Lu Dongbin, most familiar with the Immortals of the Heavenly Court, said, "This is the East Yi Wood Constellation, the leader of the Heart Moon Constellation reincarnated to face the tribulation."
Inside the house, they saw a young girl lying on a bed, pale and breathing rapidly. Though young, she already possessed the grace and beauty of blooming youth.
The girl’s parents were by her side, in tears. Her mother said, "Poor my Diao Chan, so young yet stricken with a severe illness. We are too poor to afford medical treatment and can only watch our daughter suffer..."
The father, with a hunched back, also wept, "Being a man yet unable to support even my own daughter, it truly is a disgrace!"
Daoist Equal to Heaven found the name "Diao Chan" familiar. It seemed to be a humble name given by country folk, believing it would help in raising her; thus, names like Gou Dan, Gou Zi, and Da Niu were common in the countryside, taken by parents for good fortune, hoping their children would thrive with humble names. However, Diao Chan’s name sounded much nicer than those.
Thinking on this name reminded Daoist Equal to Heaven that this Diao Chan was a legendary beauty, renowned in the Three Kingdoms and even surpassing Eastern Rivers’ Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. He smiled and nodded to himself, "Ah, that’s it."
The four’s mana was much higher than that of the Heart Moon Fox, who naturally couldn’t detect them standing in the clouds above, using their Heavenly Eye to look down.
The Heart Moon Fox thought to herself, "Once this Diao Chan dies, I will guide my Primordial Spirit and Soul into her body, and then I can follow the Heavenly Dao and achieve great fortunes in the next life."
As Diao Chan was about to die, the Heart Moon Fox was about to replace her, similar to the Nine-tailed Fox from the Ancient Era of Deification, and then use her body for her plans.
