Hearing the noise at the door, Tianning continued flipping through the storybook in his hand without paying any attention.
She said casually, "Don't be shy, make yourself at home."
Goddess Lingyue: "?"
Ghost Doctor: "..."
Anyone who didn't know better would really think this was her own home!
"You're not an ordinary person?" The Ghost Doctor frowned slightly.
The things in this room don't belong to Ghost Doctor Valley, especially that outrageous storybook in her hand. A mortal couldn't possibly conjure it out of thin air, so there's only one possibility—the mustard seed bag!
He was mistaken; he failed to recognize that this was a cultivator disguised as a mortal.
"Who sent you? The Four Holy Temples or the Ten Great Sects?"
Unlike the Eastern Continent, which is mainly managed by the Six Sects and the Eight Great Families, the Ten Sects in the Western Continent have always been overshadowed by the Four Holy Temples.
The location of Ghost Doctor Valley is at the border between the mortal realm and the Eastern Continent. They have always been cautious in their actions and never target cultivators, so they have never encountered any problems.
This is the first time an accident has happened; they actually let a cultivator in!
After the Ghost Doctor finished speaking, he immediately whistled.
Immediately, Shadow One led nine men in black through the window, each holding a weapon and pointing it at Tian Ning!
Goddess Lingyue: "..."
No, she waited a hundred years, how come this problem happened as soon as she arrived?
The atmosphere at the scene became extremely tense.
The Ghost Doctor waited for Tian Ning to speak, while Ying Yi and his group were on high alert.
"Old man, why would you do such a thing if you're so cowardly?" Tian Ning calmly turned a page of the storybook. If she didn't look around, everything would seem peaceful and serene to her.
At first, the Ghost Doctor didn't realize that the "old man" was calling him.
After learning that Tian Ning was a cultivator, he kept staring at her face. He suspected that there was a traitor in Ghost Doctor Valley who had leaked the face that the Goddess Lingyue needed, which allowed Tian Ning to infiltrate the valley!
After looking you over for a while, he said with some surprise, "Your face is natural!"
The Ghost Doctor's words made the Goddess Lingyue, who was about to leave, turn back.
She had been wondering if Tianning's face was faked using some kind of face-changing pill. If so, then this trip would have been a waste!
But I never expected that this face was indeed natural.
The Goddess Lingyue looked at Tianning's face; it was too similar...
If this girl were handed over to Immortal Venerable Tianqi, she would probably gain his boundless favor just because of her face. After all, she had observed that the Immortal Venerable was always much more lenient towards those who looked somewhat similar to Tianning!
If she could get that face, her progress in winning over Tianqi would surely be much faster!
"Ghost Doctor, the contract remains the same. This goddess will help you resolve this trouble." Goddess Lingyue spoke, a greedy glint in her eyes, desperately hoping that face would be swapped onto her own!
The fact that the Goddess Lingyue had made her stance clear relieved the Ghost Doctor, at least it made it clear that it wasn't the Star Moon Temple that wanted to deal with Ghost Doctor Valley.
The Ghost Doctor replied with a smile, "With Her Highness the Goddess's assistance, that would be the best!"
No matter how much nonsense they spouted, Tianning remained steadfastly engrossed in reading the storybook.
You know what, it's actually quite interesting to watch this kind of drama between the ideal woman and her stand-in, a change of pace from time to time.
"Let's do it!"
At the Ghost Doctor's command, the shadows immediately attacked Tian Ning!
However, before they could get close to Tianning, they were blocked by the barrier of the defensive talismans. It was only then that everyone noticed that there were countless defensive talismans pressing down on Tianning.
She... actually used a defensive talisman as a cushion?
Seeing the countless defensive talismans piled up beneath the girl, the Ghost Doctor was stunned. Even the Spirit Moon Goddess, accustomed to the extravagance of the temple, was somewhat taken aback; they had never seen such waste...
That entire pad of defensive talismans must have contained at least tens of thousands of them, right?
"Hmph! Even if you use this method to buy time, it's useless. Shadow One, continue!" Ghost Doctor said, "Your defensive talismans will run out sooner or later. Let's see what you'll do then."
