Looking at the statue of Shi Yueyao in front of her, Sheng Ning turned to Bai Ze behind her and asked, "Lord Bai Ze, may I borrow your chick for a moment?"
Bai Ze was also looking at the statue of Shi Yueyao.
Hearing Sheng Ning call his name, he immediately pulled out the branch he had tucked into his waistband. "Here, take this."
"Chirp chirp!!!"
Sheng Ning caught the little bird tossed to her and smiled when she saw the twig that had softened into a noodle from sadness.
"Your master may seem cold on the outside, but he's warm on the inside. He responds better to gentle persuasion than force. If you just act cute and charming, he'll continue to take you in."
Chirp thought she made sense, and immediately turned back into a hard little twig, "Chirp!"
"Not sad anymore? Can you help me with the chores now?"
Sheng Ning tapped it, and it tapped its head back. "Chirp chirp!"
Then Sheng Ning released several Gatling guns from his consciousness space and threw them on the ground. These were improved versions specially crafted by Guan Yunchuan.
The guns she always carries are all top-grade spiritual weapons.
Standing to the side, Tian Cang's eyes widened as he watched her unleash so many high-grade spiritual artifacts.
"Wait, does your family wholesale high-grade spiritual artifacts? What are you planning to do with so many high-grade spiritual artifacts?"
Then Sheng Ning curled the corners of her lips and handed three or five Gatling guns to Qiu Qiu, telling her to hold them with vines.
He then picked up a Gatling gun and approached the goddess statue, saying, "I'll ask you a question, and you answer it, or I'll blow this goddess statue to smithereens."
Tiancang's eyes, though not large, were already wide open to their fullest extent.
Hearing that Sheng Ning was actually going to destroy the goddess statue, he was so frightened that cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. "You...you...you...can you talk this out?"
Sheng Ning pointed the gun at the goddess statue's nostrils, "What is the relationship between Chang Le Fang and the Demon Clan?"
Tiancang's back was covered in cold sweat.
He gritted his teeth, hesitating whether to answer, when he saw Sheng Ning tap his head.
"Look at me, if I take this, it will definitely attract a lot of attention. Chirp, don't do it yet."
Under the watchful eyes of Tian Cang and the others, Sheng Ning took out the high-grade spiritual weapon that Guan Yunchuan had previously crafted for her—a composite crossbow.
After slipping the compound crossbow onto her arm, a satisfied expression finally appeared on her face. "This is good. It's small and lightweight, and can kill without leaving a trace."
Upon seeing the sharp, short arrow, Tian Cang's face instantly turned pale. "Don't be impulsive!"
Sheng Ning nodded, then stepped back slightly and aimed the short arrow at the nose of the goddess statue. "Now you can tell me, what is the relationship between Chang Le Fang and the Demon Clan?"
Her antics had already terrified Tian Cang to the point of weakness and limp legs.
If it weren't for the immobilization talisman on his body, he would have been so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
Fearing the goddess statue would be harmed, he quickly said, "It's a transit station!"
Upon hearing the word 'transfer station,' Sheng Ning raised an eyebrow. 'Aren't you afraid of being discovered by the Taixu Sect for setting up a gambling den here?'
Tian Cang glanced at her. "You are... a disciple of the Taixu Sect?"
Sheng Ning scoffed dismissively, "Tai Xu Sect? They're not worthy!"
Upon learning that Sheng Ning was not a disciple of the Taixu Sect, Tian Cang breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "There's a traitor within the Taixu Sect, so nothing will happen."
really.
There may have been a traitor within the Taixu Sect long ago, but because the Taixu Sect is so large, no one has discovered it.
Seeing Sheng Ning deep in thought with his eyes down, Tian Cang immediately spoke up, "Have you finished asking? Put down the arrow now, or you'll regret it if you hurt the goddess!"
Why did you erect this statue here?
In the lobby downstairs, Sheng Ning also saw the statue, but at that time she also saw a statue covered with a light veil, so she did not pay attention to it.
If Takura hadn't repeatedly emphasized how powerful the goddess was, she might not have noticed the statue placed in the gambling den.
Even if the demons and demonic cultivators regard the goddess as a faith, they can keep her for their own viewing and worship. Why do they need to recruit ordinary people to see her and make them pray to the goddess?
The more I thought about it, the more something seemed off.
Sheng Ning patted Qiuqiu, who immediately pointed the gun at Tian Cang's face, "If you don't talk, your goddess nose might..."
"I'll talk! I'll talk, okay?" Tian Cang cried, his face contorted with grief. "The goddess is collecting faith; she wants lots and lots of faith."
"Belief?"
Sheng Ning chewed on the word, and the original story popped into her mind: Shi Yueyao had entered the Northern Secret Realm after killing Liao Qifeng.
After that, she returned and continued to do good deeds. Some people even erected a statue of her and burned incense and made offerings to her every day.
It was precisely because of the faith and following of these ordinary people that she was shielded from two fatal lightning tribulations during her ascension.
So that's why...
Sheng Ning narrowed her eyes and touched her chin.
If Shi Yueyao already knew that collecting the faith of ordinary people could help her successfully pass the tribulation.
Did she also know something?
So they've been hiding and refusing to confront the Invincible Sect?
However, since she wants to collect faith, how can Sheng Ning not lend her a hand?
With a smile that deepened, Sheng Ning grabbed a crossbow and fired a burst of bullets at Shi Yueyao's statue amidst Tian Cang's scream.
Later, she complained that the composite crossbow was too slow, so she simply dragged Qiuqiu along and started shooting at the statue.
Tiancang stood to the side, his eyes wide with anger and sorrow, his beady green eyes turning completely red.
"The demons will kill you! They will kill you!"
Sheng Ning shrugged and smiled at him, "That depends on whether you can find me."
As she spoke, she stuck an acceleration talisman on her body, activated her spiritual power, and then grabbed Bai Ze and rushed out.
She has already reached the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, and she also has an acceleration talisman on her body.
So fast that even the Golden Core stage demonic cultivators in the casino didn't notice, she had already ripped off all the goddess statues in every cubicle on the second floor.
By the time the people downstairs noticed the commotion upstairs and went back up, Sheng Ning had already put on an invisibility talisman and sneaked downstairs during the gap in their ascent, where she smashed the goddess statue again.
As soon as Fox Princess and the others went upstairs, they heard a commotion coming from downstairs.
Fox Princess opened the door to the cubicle and saw Tian Cang looking at her with a mournful face. "Fox Sister, please go down and take a look."
"She was a nun, and she destroyed all the statues of the goddesses!"
The destruction of Chang Le Fang is a minor matter.
The destruction of the goddess statue is a serious matter.
Upon hearing that the two people she had brought upstairs had actually destroyed the statue of the goddess, the fox spirit immediately dropped her alluring expression.
She rushed out of the cubicle and, hearing that there was no more noise downstairs, immediately released the pressure of her Golden Core stage cultivation.
"Since you two young friends dared to come, why did you sneak away?"
Sheng Ning was a cultivator at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, who had not yet broken through to the Golden Core stage.
Just as she and Bai Ze had reached the entrance of Chang Le Fang, a powerful pressure, like a mountain, suddenly pressed down on her from behind.
She lost her footing and nearly fell flat on her face.
Fortunately, she managed to maintain her balance and didn't fall while holding Bai Ze.
Unfortunately, this also exposed her and Bai Ze's identities.
