So from what I've seen, Seiga got Yoshika to infect Kasen with a brain-eating worm in order to turn her into another Jiang Shi?...Holy fucking shit, indozou.
Speaking of Seiga's evilness, what did she do in canon again to earn her title? Besides faking her death, becoming a hermit, getting Miko to become a hermit, resurrecting Yoshika as her Jiang Shi (as well as possibly killing her), and stealing a bunch of people's stuff?

She refined her Taoist beliefs and techniques for many years, though apparently many of the things she did toward this end were somewhat taboo, including gaining an unaging body, and she ended up being feared by the common people. Heaven also did not acknowledge her, thus giving her the title of a "wicked hermit" – her willingness to trick her family and fake her own death without any remorse points towards a personality that higher beings didn't consider to be a good thing.
Are you telling me Seiga's title of "Wicked Hermit" has nothing to do with her morality, and everything to do with her eccentricity?
Come to think of it, do we ever actually see Seiga steal from anyone in an official work, or is that only Akyuu's assumption in SoPM?
It's both. She's simply not a good person and she subverted the natural death cycle. Even those who cheat death in other ways still get death gods sent after them every so often, like Tenshi.
