Chapter 378 Ling Ji Saves the Day
It's a pity that it was still unable to reverse the situation in the end. The small world where it was located was destroyed by the devil. When the people in the fairy world saw the monster in the tower, they threw it into this world. Later, it was discovered by the Tianji Pavilion and became their treasure.
Li Yuru was so angry that her hands were shaking. "So, she told you everything about the situation in the tower?"
"What else?"
Everyone was speechless. They thought you were so great, but it turned out you were just instigating Ta Ling to rebel. This group of people wanted to put on a show to deceive you, so you just watched them act and pretended to comment on their poor acting. Finally, you told them that the play had been spoiled. Who wouldn't be angry if this happened to them?
Tian Ming Zhenren didn't understand, "Mei Er, why would you betray me? My Tianji Pavilion has always regarded you as the treasure of the sect."
"But it was Zhong Ling'er who saved me last time in the ghost realm. I like her way of doing things. If I have to give a reason, it's that I like women."
Tianming Zhenren should be the first person in history to be abandoned by the artifact because of his gender. He now has only one idea, to kill Zhong Ling'er. Since she appeared, he has not had a single easy day.
Zhong Ling'er took Mei'er's hand and kept stroking it, "You are willing to follow me, not because you like women, but because you want to return to the right path."
"You sacrificed yourself to the pagoda for justice and became a pagoda spirit. Justice is engraved in your bones. So when you were still a human being in Tianji Pavilion, you were willing to listen to them. But when you found that they had fallen to the point of being no different from evil spirits, you naturally abandoned them and were unwilling to be associated with them."
Mei'er's face turned red. She was really a little shy. "I'm not as good as you say."
"No, Sister Mei'er, you are just that good."
Zhenren Tianming couldn't bear to listen any longer, and simply slapped out with a wave of his hand. A strong palm wind came with a powerful pressure, and while everyone tried their best to put up a shield to resist, they were also forced to kneel down.
"Bai Ze, if you don't come out to save me, I will kill you."
Suddenly, a door opened in the void, and a wild and domineering voice sounded.
"You little jerk, you bully my sister!"
A graceful black figure suddenly appeared, stood directly in front of Zhong Ling'er, and slapped the palm hard.
A hurricane suddenly appeared in the space, and a force even more powerful than the pressure of the tribulation swept towards Tianming Zhenren and his men, knocking all of them into the air and then causing them to fall heavily.
Tian Ming Zhenren barely managed to stand firm in the air. When he saw that the person coming was Ling Ji from the underworld, his expression changed twice, and then he put on a smile and said, "So it's Lady Ling Ji who has come. I wonder why you are here?"
"Humph, I didn't know that there were many ghost officials from the underworld imprisoned in the Demon Subduing Tower of the Tianji Pavilion. The King of Hell asked me to come and ask for an explanation, otherwise I will take you all to the underworld and talk to him in person."
Zhong Ling'er pulled the corner of Ling Ji's clothes, "Sister Ba, the Tianming Pavilion Master said that he sent the Ghost King and the Ghost Cultivator back to the underworld."
Ling Ji snorted coldly, "He sent them to the gap between the underworld and the world of immortal cultivation. It's not certain whether they can come back alive. Fortunately, the one following you is the Ghost King's avatar. Now the Ghost King has gone to rescue them. When he left, he specifically told me to spare their lives. He will settle this account personally."
Tian Ming Zhenren's face looked very ugly, but he still forced a smile and said, "Misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding. I just wanted to send him back to the underworld, but I didn't expect something went wrong."
"Besides, there is nothing serious between us. Miss Zhong accidentally entered the Demon Subduing Tower, and I brought people to rescue her. How could I bully her? Lady Ling Ji rarely comes here, so why not let me do my duty as a host."
Zhong Ling'er was shocked. Master Tianming changed his attitude so quickly. With just a few words, everything was a misunderstanding. It seemed that their several life and death experiences were all just a joke.
Ling Ji glanced at Zhong Ling'er and frowned, "What happened between you and Zhong Ling'er was just a misunderstanding, but the fact is that I was imprisoned by the ghost officials of the underworld."
Zhong Ling'er felt that there was something wrong when she heard the question. With Sister Ba's personality, she would definitely fight if she was not convinced. She was impatient to reason with others or seek justice. She always wanted to fight to her heart's content first, and there must be a reason why she did not take action.
Tian Ming Zhenren looked helpless, "Fellow Daoist, you don't know, there are fallen gods in our world, who knows if there are exiled ghost officials. We don't know why those ghost officials are not in the underworld, and they are all contaminated with demonic energy, so we think they came here because they made mistakes."
"Speaking of which, there hasn't been an envoy from the underworld for ten thousand years. We don't have a chance to verify it. Besides, when you came last time, you didn't say that the ghost official was lost and you wanted to look for him."
Zhong Ling'er could hear Ling Ji's grinding teeth, but what Tian Ming Zhenren said later was correct. The underworld had ignored this world for tens of thousands of years and had no intention of looking for the missing ghost officials, so he could not be blamed for this.
When it comes to eloquence, Ling Ji is definitely no match for Tian Ming Zhenren, so Zhong Ling'er took over the topic.
"Since this is all a misunderstanding, let's go out and talk it out. My brother is injured and needs to find a place to recuperate."
Zhong Ling'er helped Yu Chengpeng, who smelled of medicine, to make it clear that what she said was true.
"These people behind you must stay!"
The words of the Lin family head made Zhong Linger laugh, "Why? Are they criminals? Tell me what mistakes they made. Oh, I made a big mistake today. I didn't connect to the Taiqiong Mirror. Wait, I'll put away the Clairvoyance and you can talk first. Let everyone in the cultivation world come and judge."
Zhong Ling'er took out her clairvoyance and was about to cast a spell, but the Lin family's patriarch immediately shouted, "Young friend Zhong, there's no need to do that. Why do you need to make this known to everyone? I'm just saying that they are not creatures of this world, and they will not be tolerated by heaven when they go out."
Zhong Ling'er put away her clairvoyance and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Patriarch Lin. These are nothing to me. As long as they are willing to follow me, you don't have to force them to stay."
Zhong Ling'er dropped a huge spirit beast bag and said, "If you want to leave here with me, just get into the bag. If you don't want to leave, I won't force you to stay."
Everyone looked at the oversized spirit beast bag and felt humiliated.
"I know you may feel that putting you in a bag is too disrespectful to you, but I have no choice. Before you pass the Heavenly Dao, you can only hide here. Do you still want to stay in this tower?"
The snake demon stamped his feet and said, "I don't want to stay here anymore."
It's just a spirit beast bag. Compared with freedom, temporary humiliation is nothing. Besides, staying here might be even more humiliating than entering the spirit beast bag.
With him taking the lead, the rest of the humans and monsters all obediently entered the spirit beast bags, which made Ling Ji's eyes widen.
She felt that it was a good thing that she recognized Zhong Ling'er as her sister, otherwise she would be put into this bag by her one day and she would have no point in living.
