Chu Nian nodded and said, "You're right, I'll be more careful about this in the future."
Lou Qianzong pursed his lips: Why is this woman so obedient?
Given her relationship with Lou Qianzong, Chu Nian really didn't want to argue with him. She felt that no matter who won or lost, she would be the one who got hurt—because Lou Qianzong was a part of her!
Lin Jingting said, "Bai Ze... he said he didn't want to face Chu Nian, but Lin Jingting felt he was afraid. Lin Jingting had a gut feeling that he was terrified of Chu Nian, but she didn't know why!
Seeing Lin Jingting hesitate, Chu Nian asked, "What's wrong? Is that beast afraid to come out and see me?" Lin Jingting was even more surprised: How did Nian Nian know about this? Bai Ze had clearly been inside his spatial artifact the whole time.
Chu Nian said coldly, "He doesn't dare to come out to see me, but you have to let him out. I have questions for him."
In fact, she had seen the little donkey more than once. Especially in the underworld created by Lin Jingting, the little donkey turned into a stone statue, but Chu Nian could immediately see through it as just an illusion created by the little donkey. It could fool others but not her.
So she summoned the little donkey several times, but it still wouldn't show itself. She even punched and kicked it, but the little donkey remained unmoved, acting as if it were just an ordinary stone statue.
Chu Nian couldn't think of any other reason for his reaction other than that he was too afraid to come out and see her. If he wasn't afraid of her, he wouldn't have stayed cowering there even after she had punched and kicked him.
Chu Nian felt that the little donkey's reaction was very abnormal at the time, and only now has she finally figured it out.
Lou Qianzong looked at Chu Nian and Lin Jingting with some puzzlement, feeling that the atmosphere between the two of them was a bit off today!
After thinking about it carefully, he understood a bit and asked Chu Nian, "Woman, you went to see Lan Nian and came back, why are you in such a bad mood? Is Xiao Linzi's divine beast related to Lan Nian?"
Chu Nian chuckled, gave him a cold look, and said, "You're quite something, kid, you hit the nail on the head!" Then he turned to Lin Jingting and said, "Hurry up and release that little beast, or I'll take action."
Although Lin Jingting was raised by her, she had never seen her with such a cold and stern expression. She was so frightened that her face turned a little pale. No matter how much the Bai Ze struggled and how unwilling it was, she still released it.
The little beast did not appear in its animal form, but rather as an extremely handsome young boy.
Lou Qianzong was somewhat surprised to see this and said, "I didn't expect that you, this beast, are actually a handsome young man."
Bai Ze pouted and glared at him with a wronged expression, then quickly bowed to Chu Nianshen and said, "I wonder what instruction you have given me, senior?"
"Oh ho!" Chu Nian laughed when she heard his words, as he showered her with all sorts of polite and ingratiating treatment. However, her voice was tinged with sarcasm and coldness.
She demanded, "Tell me honestly, what exactly is your relationship with that Lan Nian?"
Bai Ze, with an honest and simple expression, said, "I have no relationship with her whatsoever."
Chu Nian's expression grew even colder as she said, "Tell the truth!" Her voice carried a hint of murderous intent.
Bai Ze was sweating profusely, and his breathing became rapid. Suddenly, he knelt down with a thud and said, "I really have nothing to do with her. It's just that she was once imprisoned by my master. To prevent her from continuing to do evil, my master separated and sealed away that part of the evil spirit in her soul."
Chu Nian paused for a moment. Lan Nian's soul wasn't a complete soul, which would explain her somewhat madness. But Chu Nian knew very well that Bai Ze's words probably hadn't revealed the key point at all.
Chu Nian chuckled and asked, "Who is your master?" She glanced at Lin Jingting.
Since Bai Ze said "my master" in front of Lin Jingting at this moment, instead of explicitly indicating that it was Lin Jingting, it means that he has another master and has not been recognized as a master by Lin Jingting.
It wasn't Lin Jingting's beast, yet it spent all its time with him. Even after Lin Jingting created the Underworld, he allowed the beast to run rampant there. Doesn't this suggest that its master and Lin Jingting had a very close relationship?
Upon realizing this, a barely perceptible glint of understanding flashed in Chu Nian's eyes.
Upon hearing her question, Bai Ze hurriedly replied, "My master is a god."
Chu Nian: "A god? What kind of god could capture Lan Nian and then split her soul in two?"
Bai Ze had no choice but to add, "She is a very powerful deity."
Chu Nian suddenly raised her hand, and a whip crackling with lightning appeared in her grasp. She brandished the whip and said, "If you keep spouting off like this, I'll whip you!"
Unexpectedly, upon seeing the whip, Bai Ze burst into tears and cried out, "Senior, spare my life!"
Chu Nian was a little helpless and said, "Tell me honestly, what is the relationship between Lan Nian and the pen that created this world of books?"
Bai Ze: "That pen is called the Pen Knife by the gods. It is the main body. Lan Nian is the evil spirit that my master separated from the soul of the Pen Knife."
"Pen knife?" Chu Nian murmured, "How come I remember it being called pen tip?" That was what Lan Nian called the pen in her memory.
Bai Ze hurriedly said, "He has always called himself Pen Sharp, but the gods in the divine realm only call him Pen Knife. Because 'Sharp' has more powerful supernatural abilities and stronger offensive capabilities; but 'Knife' is obviously much weaker in terms of momentum."
Chu Nian pondered, "To create such a complex world with only half a soul's power, that pen knife must be an extremely powerful treasure. The gods call it a pen knife, not a pen tip. Could it be that with its strength, the gods look down on it?"
Bai Ze: "The gods certainly dared not look down on it, but my master sealed its magic power and separated half of its soul and sealed it away. What ability does it have to cause trouble? Since then, everyone has called it the Pen Knife."
Chu Nian snorted and said, "I saw Lan Nian urging that pen knife to write on the scroll in his memories, which is how he created these many worlds filled with resentment."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jingting suddenly realized and said, "Bai Ze, so it was you who activated that pen knife, which caused the pen's resentment to erupt uncontrollably."
Bai Ze retorted, "Yes, it was me. But if I hadn't activated that thing, causing so many worlds to appear, would you even exist?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Jingting was immediately speechless. He was right; without the worlds constructed by the penknife, there would be no him.
Chu Nian pondered again and asked, "What kind of divine object is the pen knife that can create three thousand worlds?"
Bai Ze rolled his eyes and snorted, "All those skills were given to him by my master, but after mastering them, he forgot who he was and now he's even trying to harm my master."
Chu Nian asked, "What kind of person is your master that he could even create such a magical treasure?"
