Mo Qing was heart - broken. He walked over, crouched beside Yaohua, and gently patted her back. "Look, your elder brother is fine now. Nothing's wrong with me."
Yaohua bit her lower lip and said nothing. After a while, she suddenly reverted to her original form and ignored all of Mo Qing's attempts to cheer her up.
"You didn't do it on purpose. If anyone's to blame, it's this old hag!" Mo Qing glared hatefully at the priestess.
The priestess sneered disdainfully. "So what? You almost died at the hands of your own sister!"
"You!" Mo Qing couldn't stand the provocation and was about to kill her on the spot.
But this priestess must know more than they did. How could they let her die at Mo Qing's hands?
Yaohua transformed back into human form and grabbed Mo Qing's hand. "Sixth elder brother, don't act impulsively!"
Then, she turned to the priestess, her tone turning cold. "What's the deal with that little bug, and where is the false god hiding?"
"Just kill me!"
The priestess snorted lightly, turned her head away, and refused to cooperate.
"Do you think we dare not kill you?"
Yaohua's pretty face turned cold. Having been taught by Chongming, she had unconsciously learned his cold and noble demeanor. At this moment, her look actually intimidated the priestess.
"If you kill me, you won't have an easy time either!"
The priestess slightly widened her eyes. Fear was evident in her black pupils.
"What exactly did you feed her just now?" Mo Qing suddenly stepped forward, grabbed her neck, and a storm gathered in his phoenix eyes.
Chongming's fingers trembled slightly, but seeing Mo Qing in such a rage, he slowly retracted his fingers into his sleeve.
He didn't know that this subtle movement was still noticed by the priestess.
"Of course, it's something to make her obedient." The priestess suddenly smiled. It seemed that the little princess was indeed the soft spot of these two. As long as she held her hostage, she was sure to escape.
How could Yaohua let her be so complacent?
"Do you think that thing just now could really affect me?" Yaohua sneered, condensed a sword in her palm, and pointed it at the priestess's throat. "You're wrong if you think you can use me to blackmail my master and elder brother!"
She slowly leaned over, imitating the priestess's previous look, and showed a look a hundred times more ferocious. "My master has the well - being of all sentient beings in mind. My elder brother upholds justice. Although I'm not very capable, I'm willing to sacrifice myself for all sentient beings. If you want to live, you'd better answer my previous questions!"
With her young face, at this moment, she made the priestess feel a chill.
The priestess opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but her lips moved, and her voice was pitifully small.
"Speak louder!" Yaohua shouted sharply, and the sword in her hand came closer.
But at this moment, the priestess's face contorted, and she struggled violently.
"Moon God... My Lord..."
Chongming quickly shielded Yaohua behind him to prevent her from being scratched by the priestess.
Unexpectedly, after struggling for a while, the priestess stopped moving.
"What's this old hag up to now?" Mo Qing murmured to himself. He gently poked the priestess with the whip made of phoenix fire in his hand.
The priestess slumped to the ground like a heap of mud.
She had died silently.
Although the priestess had kept saying for them to kill her, in fact, she was fearless, certain that they wouldn't dare to do so.
Yaohua looked around but didn't notice any suspicious people.
"Master, did you notice anything just now?"
Chongming's expression was solemn, and he slightly shook his head.
The appearance of the enemy had even escaped Master's notice!
At this time, the priestess's magic lost its effect, and the hidden believers in Henan Mansion gradually saw the situation below the altar.
"Priestess!"
The crowd quickly rushed towards them.
"The priestess has been killed!" someone exclaimed.
"They actually killed the priestess!"
"Quick, catch them and offer them to the Moon God as an apology!"
Seeing the situation was bad, Chongming was about to take them away when he suddenly froze.
"Master, let's go quickly!"
Yaohua urged. These people obeyed the priestess and trusted her extremely. Seeing the priestess dead, they would surely want to tear her to pieces!
Seeing Chongming standing still, Yaohua's eyes lit up. "Master, do you have another good idea?"
Chongming slowly looked at her. His eyes, which always seemed to contain the starry sky, held an indescribable meaning.
"My spiritual power has disappeared."
What!
The three of them were all stunned.
Who was Chongming?
He was a celestial god born in the ancient pre - historic era, invincible in the three realms!
But now he said that his spiritual power had disappeared?
"Master, you're not joking, are you?" Yaohua swallowed hard. Looking at the approaching crowd, she shivered violently.
Mo Qing had the same thought. "God Chongming, it's not the time for jokes!"
He had suffered a lot just now and was still a bit out of breath. But seeing Chongming's extremely ugly expression, he immediately understood what was going on.
"They're all coming!" Rong Chu urged. "Aren't you phoenixes? Transform back into your original forms quickly and leave here first!"
Yaohua immediately transformed. "Sixth elder brother, transform back quickly and take Master away from here!"
Although this matter was strange, there was no time to think about it now.
Seeing that they were gradually getting out of the range of the drill ground, Yaohua let out a light breath.
Bang -
A sound of heavy impact came from the front.
Yaohua looked up and saw Mo Qing's body falling continuously. Chongming, who was on his back, was also falling.
Yaohua was startled and rushed over quickly. Her thin body just managed to catch Chongming.
She was still young and couldn't carry Chongming, so she had to land slowly.
Mo Qing in front also slowly landed on the ground.
"Sixth elder brother, what happened to you just now?"
"There's a barrier that trapped us inside!" Mo Qing transformed into human form as soon as he landed. He covered the huge bump on his forehead, and his handsome face was distorted with anger. "I'll surely find out that false god, skin her alive, and make sure she never reincarnates!"
"This is not the time to say such things." Rong Chu's heavy gaze fell into the distance. "They're catching up."
They were the believers of the false god!
Yaohua gritted her teeth. After all, she was only ten years old and didn't know what to do.
Chongming looked around. Now that he was on the ground, his spiritual power had recovered a little. But strangely, as the believers got closer, his spiritual power seemed to be suppressed again.
The sudden disappearance of his spiritual power must have something to do with these people.
Chongming walked towards the barrier.
"Master, be careful!"
"It's okay." Chongming raised his hand and touched the barrier under Yaohua's worried gaze.
"The barrier appeared suddenly. By the time I realized it, I had already hit it." Nan Ming complained. His anger made his eyes even brighter and more startling.
After a while, Chongming withdrew his hand.
"Master, have you noticed anything?"
Chongming nodded. "It's the power of faith."
