If it were a case of possession, Shen Sangruo's soul might still be in this body, suppressed by this unfamiliar soul.
It is in a very weak state, or... it has been broken up.
They were more inclined to believe that Bai Mumu used other methods.
They all knew how powerful Shen Sangruo's soul was, yet their bodies were still occupied by a strange soul.
It is clear that the other party came prepared, and the current situation is extremely difficult.
Shen Sanruo rarely made enemies in the cultivation world. Her only known enemy was the evil cultivator who had previously stated that he would target her.
Those present immediately suspected that the incident involved the group of evil cultivators.
Moreover, the act of possessing a body is very much like the work of those evil cultivators.
Adding to the fact that the evil entity stole the system some time ago, and since the system is also a kind of spiritual energy entity, it's hard for them not to connect this matter with the system.
When Shen Sanruo investigated the system before, she found that the system without a host was basically in a dormant state, and its functions in all aspects were limited.
The system is deeply bound to Bai Mumu and can only have her as its host.
If it really was the system's doing, even if they found it hard to believe, the soul in Shen Sangruo's body at this moment was most likely Bai Mumu.
"Are you Bai Mumu?" Daoist Wuwei frowned and asked tentatively.
Bai Mumu never expected that even her identity had been exposed.
Everyone accurately caught the fleeting change in her expression.
"It really is you! You're still alive! Did the system revive you again?" Song Weiyan's voice was excited. "The people of the Flying Cloud Sect are truly persistent!"
This is a truly lingering ghost.
Even though his soul was shattered by Chen Sangruo, he was still able to revive!
Now that things have come to this, Bai Mumu no longer needs to pretend.
He simply admitted, "Yes, it's me, so what? So what if you guessed it was me?"
Although the evil cultivation system ignored her, she could sense that the system still existed in her soul. As long as she didn't die, the system couldn't leave her on its own.
As long as the system is still there, she still has a chance to turn the tables.
Her soul had been swapped with Shen Sangruo's; she was inside Shen Sangruo's body, and they dared not easily lay a hand on her.
And if Shen Sanruo is under her control, then her current situation is entirely up to her.
She gave a sinister smile. "Chen Sangri has already been possessed by me. Possession, you know that, right? You native cultivators should know her current situation better than I do."
"I hate her so much, do you think I would keep her soul? Her soul has already dissipated!"
Seeing the expressions of everyone in front of her change and become extremely ugly, Bai Mumu felt extremely pleased.
She just couldn't stand how much they cared about Shen Sangruo, and now she felt better.
"Heh, if her soul had dissipated, how could I still be here perfectly fine without feeling anything?" Qi Yan's half-closed, peculiar eyes glanced at Bai Mumu. "If you're going to make something up, at least make it believable."
If Shen Sang dies, Qi Yan, who has a contract with her, will also perish, not to mention her soul will dissipate.
Hearing this, the others finally felt relieved.
Bai Mumu feigned surprise, "Oh dear, you actually saw through me."
"But so what? Can you still guess what I'll do to Chen Sangruo's soul?"
She adjusted her posture, using the rope formed by spiritual energy for leverage, looking completely fearless.
"Where is her soul? If you don't want to die, confess quickly." Immortal Lord Changli had exhausted his patience and only wanted to find the whereabouts of Chen Sangruo's soul as soon as possible to confirm her safety.
An overwhelming pressure poured out, and Bai Mumu's face immediately turned purplish-blue.
Despite the discomfort, she looked at Immortal Lord Changli, forced a defiant smile, and said with difficulty:
"Death? You can't kill me... I'm using your dear disciple's body right now... If you kill me, Chen Sangruo's soul will never return..."
"Threatening me? Your oppressive aura is all acting on Shen Sangruo's body, not damaging mine, hahaha..."
Seeing the incongruous smug look on Shen Sangruo's extremely familiar face, Immortal Lord Changli gritted his teeth and finally had no choice but to withdraw his oppressive aura.
Bai Mumu's expression gradually returned to normal, and after the oppressive aura dissipated, her smile became even more rampant.
Because she has found a way to control them.
His gaze swept over everyone present. "Hahaha, because of your Chen Sangruo, you can't do anything to me! A bunch of idiots!"
"I love the way you guys can't stand me, but you can't do anything about it!"
"You have no idea how interesting the expressions on your faces are right now. Do you want to kill me? Are you about to explode with anger?"
"This is much more interesting than just killing you all!"
Bai Mumu's provocative words echoed in everyone's ears, truly infuriating them.
But just as she said, they really couldn't do anything about her.
If they want to harm Bai Mumu now, they can only try to attack her soul.
However, among those present, including those within the entire Ninghua Sect, there was not a single person who was extremely skilled in soul magic.
"Go and send a message to the Hall of Ten Thousand Spirits." Immortal Lord Changli's face darkened completely. "Invite those in the Hall of Ten Thousand Spirits who are skilled in soul magic to come here."
He then looked at Bai Mumu and said in a deep voice, "How long do you think you can be so smug? Do you think we really can't do anything to you?"
From the great chaos ten thousand years ago to today, Immortal Lord Changli has experienced many storms. How could he be easily manipulated by Bai Mumu?
Bai Mumu was very confident in the soul-swapping spell. She believed that even if the people from the Myriad Spirits Palace came, they would not be able to find the whereabouts of Chen Sangruo's soul or swap the two souls back.
But then they could directly attack her soul, and she could no longer use Shen Sangruo's body as a shield.
Despite being incredibly flustered inside, Bai Mumu still put on a confident facade.
"Fine, go ahead and search! Shen Sangruo's soul is in my hands. If I am harmed, I will make her pay a hundredfold! And you will never know her whereabouts!"
"Even if I die, I'll drag her down with me!"
Unmoved, the crowd had already sent a message to the Wanling Palace, who estimated that the Wanling Palace would arrive at Ninghua Sect today.
Ignoring her, she continued talking to herself, "You all want to know about her situation, right? I'll tell you a little bit."
"I entrusted her soul to someone for safekeeping. Can you guess who it is?"
"It's Lu Shiqing."
Upon hearing this name, everyone finally reacted and turned to look at Bai Mumu.
"I forgot to tell you, I made a deal with Lu Shiqing. He helped me take over Shen Sangruo's body, and I gave him Shen Sangruo's soul in return."
"Lu Shiqing's feelings for Shen Sangruo are so intense, what do you think will happen if Shen Sangruo's soul falls into his hands?"
