In a blink of an eye, as Zhang Chen’s mind stirred, he directly marked the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, an invisible chain linking the two.
At this mont, the steel needle was already in front of Zhang Chen, but Zhang Chen was not flustered. A flow of water appeared out of nowhere, turning into ice that froze the steel needle in midair.
Since Zhang Chen was prepared to act, how could he not be ready?
He had long stored at least a ton of water beneath the floor of the room, hidden so that ’Xie Lingyun’ didn’t notice when entering.
"Hmm? What?"
’Xie Lingyun’ looked at the suddenly appearing water that froze his steel needle, stunned, but during this pause, Zhang Chen acted again, his spirit entering the black-and-white world, grasping the chain and pulling it effortlessly, only to see a black lotus being pulled out of Xie Lingyun’s body.
"What?" Zhang Chen’s spirit returned to his body, his eyes fixed on the lotus, filled with astonishnt. He was clearly pulling at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, so how did he end up pulling out a lotus?
As Zhang Chen was stunned, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon was even more dumbfounded, staring at the chain locked onto himself, then at Zhang Chen, who held the other end of the chain, and Xie Lingyun’s body behind him, his eyes full of bewildernt.
The next mont, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon spun around to return to Xie Lingyun’s body, but Zhang Chen pulled the chain, dragging the Great Freedom Celestial Demon towards him.
"What the hell is this chain?" The Great Freedom Celestial Demon looked at the chain binding him, utterly bewildered. What was he? A Celestial Demon that cos and goes without a trace?
How could he be ensnared by a chain?
He finally understood why Zhang Chen was so confident, and why he felt uneasy the mont he saw Zhang Chen—it was all because of this chain.
This chain was the culprit!
The Great Freedom Celestial Demon was itself a peculiar anomaly with no offensive power, possessing only the ability to traverse the void and dwell in the mind. Its strength relied entirely on the host’s power.
Though weak to the extre, it had a powerful ability: immortal, dwelling within the hearts of living beings.
Pulled from Xie Lingyun’s body, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon’s eyes filled with horror: "Damn, how could this be possible? How could there be such a terrifying ability in the world? This is my nesis!"
He already regarded Zhang Chen highly, but still ended up caught off guard.
He regretted it! So regretted that his guts turned blue. Clearly, if he had given the order, five hundred armored warriors could rush in and mince this kid for the dogs. But he couldn’t kick the bad habit of showing off, leading to this misstep.
"I think we can talk." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon looked at Zhang Chen, as gentle as one could be.
"Is she still savable?" Zhang Chen looked at Xie Lingyun.
"Savable! Of course savable! Her soul is rely sealed by . With a thought, I can remove the seal," said the Great Freedom Celestial Demon.
Zhang Chen looked at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, who imdiately understood and turned to blow air at Xie Lingyun. The next mont, Xie Lingyun’s eyelids slowly fluttered open, confusedly looking at the flas before her, seeing Zhang Chen, and the black lotus floating in the void.
That was Xie Lingyun’s Celestial Demon; she could naturally see it.
"Wasn’t I already possessed by the Celestial Demon and dead? Are you dead too?" Xie Lingyun’s big eyes looked at Zhang Chen, filled with confusion.
"You’re still alive. I happened to have so ans to pull the Celestial Demon from your body. You’re saved! If nothing extraordinary happens, you won’t be troubled by the Celestial Demon in the future." Zhang Chen’s eyes fell on Xie Lingyun, feeling she was different, a subtle change in aura, but couldn’t pinpoint exactly how.
"You’ve noticed she’s different, haven’t you?" The Great Freedom Celestial Demon turned to look at Zhang Chen.
Hearing this, Zhang Chen’s face turned dark: "You left a trick?"
"I didn’t leave a trick. I am rely the culmination of her greed, anger, and ignorance. By pulling out, you extracted all her evil, leaving her purely kind-hearted, a virtuous, genuine good person now," said the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, gazing at Zhang Chen.
"So, what’s your point?" Zhang Chen asked.
"She and I are two sides of the sa coin; if she lives, I remain immortal. You can’t kill ; even if you destroy , I’ll resurrect from her mind. So I think we can talk. What can’t be discussed?" The Great Freedom Celestial Demon spoke, turning to Xie Lingyun: "Miss, I didn’t an to harm you. Please forgive , as I’ve realized my mistake. I dare not harm anyone again."
Xie Lingyun ca to her senses, looking at Zhang Chen, then at the Celestial Demon, and suddenly asked: "Do you truly realize your mistake?"
