Chapter 489: The Yellow Weasel Seeks Enchantment, Clarifying Who I Am
“The girl named Xiaofang in the village, she is beautiful and kind…”
A child around ten years old hummed a country tune as he walked alone on a dark path. This person was none other than the recently enlightened “Changsheng.”
Since gaining enlightenment, Changsheng’s thinking had become clearer.
At the same time, he understood that the best way to understand his identity was to follow his own feelings. Because since childhood, there has always been a voice deep within his heart guiding him.
However, just as Changsheng was contemplating these things, a voice interrupted his thoughts, causing him to stop.
“Little one, do you think I look like a human or a deity?”
Looking at the yellow weasel in front of him with wild grass on its head, who was as tall as himself, Changsheng first froze, then said:
“Are you here to seek enchantment?”
Hearing this, the yellow weasel was immediately stunned.
Because it never imagined that a ten-year-old child would not be afraid of it.
“Little one, aren’t you afraid of me?”
“Of course I am afraid, and I’m very scared, but for some reason, my body isn’t afraid of you. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Of course I understand what you mean. So, do you think I look like a human or a deity?”
“Of course, you look like a deity.”
As soon as the words fell, a surge of aura emerged from Changsheng’s head and entered the yellow weasel’s body.
Seeing this, the yellow weasel immediately smiled: “Born with an yin body, I can now be deified. I finally have the chance to join the ranks of immortals.”
“Little one, this has damaged your fate, but I will compensate you next time.”
Just as Changsheng spoke, the aura floating above his head changed.
Immediately, the yellow weasel’s eyes widened, saying: “This is the Disenchantment Technique, you are not…”
Before the yellow weasel could finish, all its flesh turned into paper money and dissipated into the air, leaving only an empty pelt.
Seeing this, Changsheng picked up the yellow weasel’s pelt, cut it a few times, and made a simple vest.
After replacing his old clothes with the vest made from the yellow weasel’s fur, Changsheng continued on his journey.
All of these actions were taken by Changsheng’s will.
To be precise, even Changsheng himself didn’t know why he did this, but he firmly believed that it was right.
Thus, Changsheng continued walking aimlessly.
And this walk lasted for three whole years.
…
“Excuse me, can I ask for a drink of water?”
A bright-eyed teenager stood at the door of a farmer’s house. He wore a yellow fur vest.
He wore a white hat on his head and a string of animal tooth bracelets on his wrist.
Listening to the voice, a teenager of about the same age peeked out from inside the house.
Only, strangely, this teenager’s face was extremely pale.
“What are you doing here?”
“I’m just passing through. I’m very thirsty, can I ask for a drink of water?”
Upon hearing this, the teenager who peeked out pursed his lips and said: “There’s no problem with drinking water, but my grandfather doesn’t let me go out today.”
“Why don’t you come in and drink? The water jar is right there.”
Facing the teenager’s words, the beast skin teenager looked at the open courtyard gate and waved his hand.
“I won’t come in. There’s a red-dressed sister outside who looks very fierce.”
“You’d better move as soon as possible. Otherwise, that red-dressed sister might take your life.”
Having said that, the beast skin teenager turned to leave.

The Beast Skin Youth stood at the doorway of the farmhouse. He was wearing a yellow fur vest and a white hat on his head, with a string of animal tooth bracelets on his wrist.
The youth inside the house, whose face was extremely pale, looked out and asked, “What are you doing here?”
“I’m just passing by. I’m very thirsty. Can I have some water?”
The pale-faced youth replied, “It’s fine if you want water, but my grandfather doesn’t allow me to go out.”
“Why don’t you come into the courtyard and drink? The water jar is right there.”
The Beast Skin Youth looked at the open courtyard gate and waved his hand.
“I won’t come in. There’s a red-dressed sister outside who looks very fierce.”
“You’d better move as soon as possible. Otherwise, that red-dressed sister might take your life.”
After saying this, the Beast Skin Youth turned to leave.
—
“Wait!”
Just as the Beast Skin Youth raised his foot to leave, a voice called out to him.
Looking closely, the person who called out was an old man dressed in coarse hemp clothing.
Although dressed like a farmer, his demeanor was far from that of a typical old farmer.
The old man carefully examined the Beast Skin Youth and then bowed, saying, “Young man, your tiger-like aura is quite intimidating. May I invite you to come inside for a chat?”
“I won’t go to your house unless you cook me pork knuckles.”
“Agreed!”
—
In the farmhouse courtyard.
The Beast Skin Youth was enjoying a hearty meal of pork knuckles.
This scene caused the pale-faced youth great distress.
“Grandpa, why are we giving him our pork knuckles?”
Facing the complaint from the youth, the old man immediately comforted him, saying, “Rain Life, if a pork knuckle can get him to help you, this is the best deal in the world. He could be your chance to survive!”
Hearing this, Rain Life asked in confusion, “Does he have any special qualities that I haven’t noticed?”
“You haven’t noticed because your cultivation is insufficient, and your yang energy is too weak.”
“The fur vest the young man is wearing is made from the skin of a yellow weasel.”
“And judging from the completeness of the fur, it seems to be the entire skin of a yellow weasel.”
“A yellow weasel of such size is likely already a half-deity.”
Upon hearing this, Rain Life gasped and said, “A yellow weasel that is a half-deity was defeated by him. How powerful must he be?”
“His power goes beyond that. If I’m not mistaken, the hat on his head is made from white fox fur.”
“And you noticed, didn’t you, that the beast skin hat has three fox tails behind it.”
“This means he killed a three-tailed white fox demon.”
“In addition, the aura of the string of animal teeth in his hand is chaotic, containing all sorts of auras.”
“Most of them belong to fierce beasts that have cultivated to a high level.”
“Only someone so formidable has the right to save your life.”
Hearing this, a glimmer appeared in Rain Life’s eyes.
But soon, the glimmer faded away.
“Let it be, Grandpa. Why should someone help us when we’ve just met?”
“And I don’t want to harm him because of this.”
Facing Rain Life’s words, the old man wanted to say something but found himself speechless.
“Rain Life, it’s all my fault. I couldn’t protect you.”
“But you’re right. We shouldn’t harm others’ lives because of our own matters.”
After saying this, the old man stopped eating the Beast Skin Youth’s feast.
Before the old man could speak, the Beast Skin Youth bit into a piece of pork knuckle and said indistinctly, “I asked the red-dressed sister.”
“She said your family owes her something, so she won’t help.”
“I can help you with this matter, but you also need to help me.”
Hearing this, the old man’s eyebrows lifted, and he said, “Young friend, do you have a solution to this matter?”
“No.”
“But I believe I can handle it. If you trust me, I can give it a try.”
“But you have to help me first.”
“As long as you can save my grandson’s life, I will do anything. What do you want me to do, young friend?”
Hearing this, the Beast Skin Youth put down the pork knuckle and said calmly, “It’s simple. Help me figure out who I am.”
