Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now! Chapter 1258 - 374: [Saint’s Schemes]_2

She bowed her head and pondered seriously, then let out a long breath.

"You are a Saint, and you have taken hold of my weakness. I cannot resist you, but... it’s hard for me to obey if you want me to attack Chen Yan."

Chen Yan immediately caught on to the key information in the little girl’s words: she was held by this Saintess Ghost? Her weakness?

What kind of handle or vulnerability does this Yunqiao Great Demon have to be threatened by the Saintess Ghost?

Seeing the little girl resisting her will, the Saintess Ghost did not get angry, only lightly snorted, and said indifferently: "Little Que’Er, you do know that loyalty without absoluteness is absolutely disloyal.

If there is even the slightest hint of dissent before me, that is disloyalty."

The little girl’s expression froze, but suddenly turned to the Saintess Ghost and knelt down with a thud.

Even though she was on the ground, she straightened her back and said loudly: "Chen Yan and I have a connection, and I owe him a favor, so... I cannot attack a friend.

If you want to punish me, then I’ll take it."

After finishing, she suddenly stood up, turned around and walked towards Chen Yan, saying loudly: "I can’t do anything, neither can I help you nor attack you, anyway... I’m sorry to you!"

After saying that, she suddenly shook her body, and with a swoosh, disappeared from where she was!

Chen Yan knew that this fellow had left here, jumped into the Mirror World.

What made Chen Yan slightly raise his eyebrows was that in the last moment before entering the Mirror World, the little girl shoved something into his hand, surprisingly it was the Mahjong tile that could block the Heavenly Dao!

Chen Yan suddenly understood the little girl’s intention... At the crucial moment, she defied the Saint’s order and threw in the towel!

By returning the Mahjong tile to him, she ensured that once she entered the Mirror World, he wouldn’t be able to come out.

"Heh..."

The sitting Saintess Ghost chuckled softly, her gaze at Chen Yan becoming more profound: "You are quite interesting, even this Que’Er dared to defy my will for you."

Chen Yan thought for a moment, then simply walked to the side and sat down on a chair.

"Honorable Venerable...", Chen Yan contemplated for a moment, then slowly said: "Actually, we are not meeting for the first time. In previous encounters, though you couldn’t speak at the time, I am thankful for you pointing out certain things.

Moreover... if you truly intend to engage in a fight, there’s no need to put up such a façade for me.

Therefore, if the Saint has something in mind, why not voice it to see if there’s room for negotiation?"

The Saintess Ghost shook her head: "A mere ant wanting to negotiate terms with me."

"A mere ant is fine." Chen Yan smiled: "This is not the Domain Realm, and in this world, there is no Saint. Honourable Venerable, the Heavenly Dao here is not the Domain Realm’s Heavenly Dao and won’t protect you"

Seeing the Saintess Ghost not speaking, Chen Yan waited until he was sure she had no intention to act before probing: "Actually... though I had thoughts, I didn’t actually do anything that undermines your plans, did I?

Since the Saint has come to this world, you must also be aware of its rules.

Even criminals have attempts without success.

I thought of stopping you but didn’t actually succeed, so..."

The Saintess Ghost sneered: "Didn’t you? You led my reincarnated body away from me, does that not count?"

Chen Yan laughed: "Does that count? It seems my earlier thought was right, taking Lu Sisi away indeed caused you trouble?"

The Saintess Ghost laughed again: "Trouble is an exaggeration, but it did cost me some extra effort."

Pausing, she looked at Chen Yan, her gaze meaningful: "You indeed are quite good, all my effort on you wasn’t wasted. Very good, son of the Chen Family, you are indeed good."

Chen Yan’s heart tightened!

So much effort? On me?

What does it mean?

Yet the Saintess Ghost gently exhaled: "Alright, since as you wish, let’s first talk. If we can’t reach an agreement, then I’ll take your soul and refine it into a Magical Treasure."

Before Chen Yan could change color, the Saintess Ghost had already chuckled: "Since we are to talk, there can be no tea."

As soon as the words fell, a graceful figure walked in from outside the hall.

In a plain white mourning dress, carrying a tea tray, she walked in submissively, arriving before Chen Yan.

Chen Yan looked at her, thoughts racing in his mind, sighed: "It’s you, it’s really you. You..."

Zhou Qingning at that moment lacked the previously gentle and submissive demeanor, her expression calm and indifferent, slightly saluted towards Chen Yan, saying calmly: "Lord Immortal Official, previously this girl’s soul was incomplete, and her memories had not recovered. Now that they are restored, naturally I cannot obey your orders any longer."

Chen Yan realized: "You... are you a Saint’s Disciple? You... weren’t you the adopted daughter of Luoyan Town Town General Jiang Yu?"

Zhou Qingning was slightly taken aback, unexpectedly looking at Chen Yan: "Did not expect you found out even this."

But she still explained: "I was an orphan adopted by Lord Jiang Yu, but after the Luoyan Array’s battle, I left the Immortal Platform, wandered the wilderness, and later fortunately chosen by the Saint, became a disciple, serving the Saint.

So, I am indeed a servant under the Saint, naturally should follow the Saint’s command. Defying the Lord Immortal Official’s will does not count as ingratitude."

Chen Yan sneered: "What a ’does not count,’ if not for me giving you Fire Copper days ago, you’d have scattered to pieces."

Zhou Qingning’s face slightly tightened, but there was little guilt in her eyes, shaking her head: "I know you surely are angry, but actually... hmm, the Saint’s scheme isn’t as simple as you imagine.
