Legend of the Great Sage

usness faded slightly.
He came up with a plan with a single thought.

If he punched down right now, he could definitely kill Dai Mengfan.
However, while she claimed that she would not resist, she would definitely do so desperately when the time arrived, which would cost him another bead or two.

“Alright then, I’ll give you an opportunity.
Attack the Pavilion of Heavenly Tomes with me!”

If the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance could not allow a traitor like her to exist and would suppress her like how he suppressed Pi Yangqiu, that would be equivalent to giving him one more chance to strike at full strength.

Li Qingshan suddenly understood Dai Mengfan’s plan.
The reason why the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance would rather give him the chance to strike at full strength and still crush Pi Yangqiu to death was to stop the direct disciples from dispersing, which would prevent them from wearing him down.

But now, only Dai Mengfan remained, and she behaved like she had completely given up on resisting.
If the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance crushed her to death as well, not only would he get nothing out of it, but he would even give him a chance to strike at full strength for nothing.

Of course, if it were Li Qingshan instead, he would rather give the opponent an advantage and still butcher this traitor first! However, the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance had always been known for his rational thought.
He probably would not be so impulsive.

What a genius!

Li Qingshan could not help but sigh inside.
She was able to view the overall situation with such clarity despite such stress and still make a decision like that with the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance’s pressure.

“I refuse!”

Dai Mengfan turned down Li Qingshan’s request firmly.
She would be insane if she decided to attack the Pavilion of Heavenly Tomes with Li Qingshan.
That was basically giving the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance a reason to kill her.

Li Qingshan’s face sank.
Dai Mengfan explained in a hurry, “I have to stay here and protect junior sister Miaozhen!” Then she tugged Yang Miaozhen’s sleeve, giving her a pleading gaze.

Despite the situation, Yang Miaozhen only said with difficulty, “Senior sister Dai has been quite nice to me…”

“Alright then!”

Li Qingshan decided to do this for Yang Miaozhen’s sake.
After all, she was his woman, and she had even been imprisoned because of him.

At the same time, Dai Mengfan’s cultivation had already reached the peak of Yang Soul.
She had a very good chance at undergoing the sixth heavenly tribulation and becoming a Human Immortal, and she was very talented at administration.
She could be regarded as a special kind of genius among cultivators, so it was a pity for her to die here.

Even if he insisted on killing her, it was a waste of strength, so he was better off saving this energy to destroy the formation.

Hold on.
When he thought like that, perhaps even his own thoughts were a part of her plan.

It was commonly said that those who did not plan for the overall situation would not even succeed with minor plans.
Even chess pieces could understand the thoughts of the chess players and make their own decisions.

Li Qingshan left as quickly as he came, vanishing from the underground prison in the blink of an eye.

After a moment of silence, a new round of explosions began from the direction of the Pavilion of Heavenly Tomes.

I’m alive!

Dai Mengfan eased up inside and let out a great sigh of relief.
She basically wanted to cry from joy.
Only now did she realise that her clothes were soaked from cold sweat.

Not only had she managed to survive under Li Qingshan’s fist, but even the bone-chilling coldness had vanished.
The Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance no longer paid any attention to her.
Of course, she had technically bought some time for the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance as well.

Her hand suddenly turned cold.
Yang Miaozhen shoved the sumeru ring back into her hand and said indifferently with her head lowered, “I don’t want things that aren’t mine.” She did feel slightly disappointed inside.
Li Qingshan did not even spare her a second glance.

What a great child! Dai Mengfan was very touched, finding Yang Miaozhen more and more pleasing to the eye.

If it were not for Yang Miaozhen, she probably would not even get the opportunity to speak.
Even if she had a multitude of plans, she would not be able to break out of the situation.
If Li Qingshan bothered with some chatter with every single direct disciple, just how much time would he have to waste? He depleted a tremendous amount of spiritual qi with each passing second to fend off the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance’s suppression.

“Miaozhen, would you like to take me on as your master? I can give you regular guidance on your cultivation, and I’m in charge of all of the cultivation methods and resources!”

Yang Miaozhen was quite interested in that.
