Chapter 213 : The Young Demoness, Ning Manman!
“What is it? I just happened to walk in.”
Ye Changge pretended to be flustered, as if he was frightened by her ferocious appearance. His voice was also trembling.
He looked like a mortal who had accidentally entered this place.
“Still pretending?”
The little girl had a disdainful look. She stood up and walked in front of Ye Changge and said, “Do you really think I can’t see that you have cultivation? You’re still too young to lie to me. I am Ning Manman!”
Sigh!
Ye Changge regretted it.
If he had known earlier, he would not have used his spiritual power to shatter the door.
By pretending to be a mortal, he should have been able to get more information from her.
‘Since things have already come to this, I won’t pretend anymore. I’ll lay my cards on the table!’
Ye Changge unscrupulously let go of his pretences, and at the same time, he activated the Spectator’s Freedom Scripture.
The pressure from the divine realm immediately made Ning Manman’s heart palpitate. After seeing the Spectator’s Freedom Scripture, her eyes widened.
“You… You’re a disciple of the Freedom Palace? Are the people of the Freedom Palace not all dead? How are things outside? How many people are there in the Freedom Palace?”
Ning Manman’s questions were like a series of shots from a cannon.
Ignoring Ye Changge’s terrifying presence, she grabbed his collar, and her face was very close to his. She was very emotional.
“The Freedom Palace is already gone, and the spiritual energy in the entire mountainous realm is on the verge of drying up. There shouldn’t be any other cultivators.”
Ye Changge said softly.
After hearing this, Ning Manman’s expression was filled with regret, and her voice began to tremble as if she had become a completely different person.
She was no longer as crazy, cruel, and cold-blooded as before.
On the contrary, she looked like a young girl. Her voice was clear and melodious, and she cried out like a bird, “Sob, sob… Grandma, I’m sorry…”
Her cries were filled with true emotion, and even Ye Changge felt a trace of sadness for her.
“It’s all in the past, Manman.”
Among the audience summoned by the Spectator’s Freedom Scripture, the old woman looked at Ning Manman with a kind expression.
Ye Changge was very puzzled. The Freedom Palace’s martial arts were a little strange.
A person who had been dead for many years was still able to occupy the spiritual energy gathered by the martial arts and converse with people across space.
As expected of the most repellant kind of martial arts in the history of time.
The old woman seemed to have seen through Ye Changge’s thoughts and spoke with a smile.
“It’s just that the remnants of my soul that I deliberately left behind back then sensed the combination of the Spectator’s Freedom Scripture and the characters in it. After this, my soul will completely disappear.”
“When I disappear, will you take care of Manman? Although she was possessed by an extraterrestrial heavenly devil which poisoned her mind, and caused her to kill many people, her nature is still that of a young girl who has yet to grow up.”
“I can’t let her wait for me here obediently. More than 400 years have passed. She hasn’t taken a step out, right?”
Ye Changge nodded. This was indeed undeniable.
Seeing that Ye Changge did not refute, the old woman continued, “After that time, she has become a being with two souls. A female demon who is filled with thoughts of killing, and a child who has yet to grow up and be obedient.”
Ye Changge understood what she meant. She wanted him to take care of her granddaughter on her behalf.
It could be said that he was the only remaining cultivator in this world, the only person who had the possibility of bringing her out of this dead world.
The old woman had no reason to miss this opportunity.
Moreover, he would not suffer any losses. He could still have one more disciple and receive a reward.
It was not a loss at all.
Ye Changge nodded and said, “If she is willing, I don’t mind. Also, do you know why the spiritual qi in this world is so scarce?”
The old woman saw that Ye Changge had agreed and smiled happily. “She will agree. As for the problem of spiritual qi, I know. It has something to do with Manman too.”
Ignoring Ye Changge’s doubts, the old woman continued to speak on her own, “The Human Mountain World is a special world. It has nurtured a strange object of heaven and earth, but it has yet to fully mature. Some people from the Great Xia World’s families have their eyes on this strange object and want to take it away. Hence, they have extracted all the spiritual qi in the Human Mountain World to speed up its maturation…”
“It should be maturing soon. If you’re not afraid of offending the experts of the Great Xia World, you can also take it away.”
Ye Changge rolled his eyes and said somewhat helplessly, “So you want us to take revenge for you?”
From the meaning of the old woman’s words, it wasn’t difficult for Ye Changge to guess that among the people who destroyed the Freedom Palace back then, there were definitely people from the Great Xia World.
He was the sect master of a large faction to begin with. He knew that if he wanted to completely destroy a faction, he would have to have a peerless expert whose strength far exceeded that of a world, or there must have been other powerful factions intervening.
If a peerless expert destroyed a faction, it would only be a mortal enmity. If the great world intervened, it meant that there was definitely a great treasure on the line.
The Freedom Palace perfectly met the conditions for triggering the great world to intervene.
Ye Changge also dared to make this conclusion.
Moreover, even if he guessed wrong, he would not suffer any losses.
When the old woman heard Ye Changge’s words, she nodded and said, “Indeed, if it wasn’t for the Great Xia devil lord sending people to interfere, just based on the other sects in the Human Mountain World, how could they destroy my Freedom Palace?”
It seemed that the other sects were presenting treasures to seek glory.
Choosing to sacrifice the Human Mountain World in exchange for their own sects being able to go to the Great Xia family.
It was really shameful.
He cut off the immortal path of tens of billions of people in the Human Mountain World just to become a dog for other forces in the Great Xia family.
Ye Changge despised this kind of sect in his heart.
If he did not rely on his own abilities to ascend to the Great Xia family and expand their territory, then he would forever be a dog for powerful forces.
Until he lost his value and completely disappeared.
The Great Xia family was as strong as a forest and their territory was incomparably vast. Until now, they had yet to explore the boundaries.
The powers within them were like the stars in the sky; they were numerous.
If they wanted to occupy an area here and become their own sect, then it would be impossible.
It would be impossible for them to not have strength.
This kind of territory, which was obtained by relying on the protection of others, would naturally make them unable to leave this protection.
They wanted to give out top-tier experts and become independent?
Where would they get the peerless cultivation technique and so many resources?
Moreover, the powerful higher-ups were not fools. If they really found a disciple of pure genius, they would have taken him long ago.
Therefore, it was impossible for this kind of strength to stand out in Great Xia World.
Ye Changge shook his head lightly, retracting his thoughts that had flown away.
He looked at the old woman and asked, “Then, where is that heaven and earth mystical object?”
“Doesn’t Manman have a map here somewhere? You can ask her. I’m going to disappear.”
The old woman looked at the crying Manman squatting in front of her. She seemed to have recalled something as she spoke.
“Manman’s twin soul is very special. She doesn’t want others to be born with a body housing two souls. When one soul controls the body, the other will be in a deep sleep. Manman’s body housing two souls was formed after birth. The two are inseparable, but they have their own thoughts.
“It’s like lake water. When one soul dominates the body above the surface of the water, the other will be watching from below the surface of the water. Then, the soul below the surface of the water will continuously affect the soul that dominates the body until the soul that dominates the body can’t hold on anymore… Then the two positions will exchange.”
“It will always be the same cycle.”
“It will never stop.”
“In other words, when Manman kills people, her heart is filled with regret and pain. When Manman saves people, her eyes are filled with malevolence and killing intent.”
