It's time to become a fairy.

"What a shameless fellow! It seems most people with mixed blood from two worlds are thieves after all. They get caught stealing by their master but still don't want to admit it?"

"You're shameless! And your excuse is so casual. Even if you were sold, you wouldn't be worth a fraction of the spirit ring's value!"

"Hurry up and return the spirit ring to admit your mistake. Go to the city lord's mansion to confess your crime. Maybe you can get a lighter punishment. It will only take breaking one of your arms. Otherwise, it won't just be about one arm. You, little girl, can't afford the subsequent compensation."

A few voices echoed from somewhere in the nearby crowd, and in an instant, the entire crowd began to condemn the little girl. The little girl opened her mouth as if to say something, but she couldn't say anything at all. She only felt that she was surrounded by malicious words and eyes, and she didn't have a chance to defend herself. Tears began to well up in her eyes.

A hint of excitement flashed in the slightly overweight man's eyes. Seeing that public opinion had been successfully stirred up and the tide was on his side, he turned fierce and reached out to grab the little girl's arm: "You still won't admit it even when you're about to die? Come with me to see the city lord. The city lord is a figure from the Canghui Sect. He is absolutely fair and just, and will give us justice."

"You admitted it was only about an arm before, but now that you've been caught in public, you still won't admit it. According to city regulations, this is an extremely serious offense. If you're caught, you'll not only have to return the item, but you'll also have to pay compensation of equal value. Can you afford to pay? If not, then use your body... Who are you?"

Just as the slightly overweight man was about to touch the little girl, a delicate hand reached out from nowhere and grabbed his wrist first.

The slightly overweight man's face was ferocious as he looked at the newcomer: "Another accomplice of that wild girl. Don't think that bringing an accomplice will make you useful. I'm not afraid of you. I've already contacted the city guards, and they're on their way. If you dare to make a move, not even the gods can touch you!"

"Really? Accomplices?"

Ye Qingge revealed a wicked smile, slightly tightening his grip on the slightly chubby man's hand, causing a crisp cracking sound from the bones. At the same time, he released an aura of righteousness from his body, which combined with the aura of the first level of the Heavenly God Transformation, creating a sacred aura that spread throughout the entire area. He said, word by word, "Say it again!"

Chapter 86 The Method to Break the Stalemate: The Heavenly Azure Sect's Departure from the Boundary

"Upright and righteous spirit!"

The slightly overweight man looked astonished. In the righteous world fostered by the Taicang Sect, the existence of Righteous Qi was known to all, but very few could actually cultivate it. In the initial ten thousand years after defeating the demonic cultivators, Righteous Qi had even become one of the essential divine abilities required to join the Taicang Sect, to prove absolute justice and impartiality!

Unfortunately, the later the era, the fewer people were able to cultivate this ability, and in the present era, it has been tens of thousands of years since a single person has cultivated this righteous spirit.

Cultivating righteousness means having a clear conscience and acting only for justice. However, the concept of justice is subjective and varies from person to person. What may be considered demonic by others may be seen as righteous by one's own values.

After tens of thousands of years of exploration, people have gradually figured out the pattern: the so-called justice is the justice recognized by heaven and earth, which is equivalent to heaven and earth endorsing you. Those who cultivate righteousness will be absolutely good people and will never have any moral problems.

Once someone does something against the laws of Heaven and justice, even the most righteous and noble spirit will vanish in an instant!

Looking at Ye Qingge's calm expression, he took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the pain in his hand, and finally lowered his head, wincing in pain as he said, "I apologize for my abruptness. I take back what I said earlier. A person who can cultivate righteous energy should be a role model for us all, and it is impossible for them to be an accomplice of this thief."

The slightly overweight man's eyes darted around, his mind racing, countless thoughts swirling in his head. He said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist would never steal, but this wild girl might be. Being able to cultivate righteous energy, Fellow Daoist must be a reasonable person. I can open my spirit ring to prove that this item belongs to me. Please give me a chance."

“This spirit ring has not been used for many years. The sealing method left by its former owner is outdated. Without the replenishment of spiritual power, it is extremely weak. It is not difficult to open. You can even force it open. Your method is inappropriate.”

Ye Qingge shook her head, reached out and gently touched the spirit ring in the little girl's hand, and smiled, "I happen to have a method that can see the true face of the owner of this item. Let me use this method to determine whose this ring is. Does anyone have any objections?"

With the opening of the second level of the Heavenly God Transformation, Ye Qingge's aura became increasingly sacred and vast. Combined with her righteous energy, her innate credibility was much higher than that of the slightly chubby man. She glanced subtly at several people who wanted to stir up trouble, then unleashed her spiritual pressure, forcing them to swallow their argumentative words and successfully gaining the approval of the other onlookers.

When Ye Qingge used the Soul-Binding Technique, she did not activate it at full power, proving that the owner of the ring did not need to restore the scene. Under her control, a male phantom that looked three or four parts similar to the little girl appeared, but it quickly collapsed in just a few breaths.

She looked at the slightly overweight man with a half-smile and said, "I wonder what else you have to say?"

The slightly overweight man broke out in a cold sweat. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word of rebuttal. He tried to pull his arm back with all his might, but found that Ye Qingge's hand was like a large clamp that held him firmly, making him unable to move. Instead, she tore his sleeve to shreds, and with her ferocious expression, he looked extremely disheveled.

"He claimed to have a spirit boat and would never covet that little girl's spirit ring. I never expected this guy to be the real thief, openly trying to steal her things. Send him to the city lord's mansion!"

"Yes, yes, send this bastard to the city lord's mansion!"

"When I first saw this guy piloting a spirit boat, I thought he was really something. I guess that's how he got his spirit boat."

Ye Qingge calmly asked, "Are you going to walk by yourself, or should I force you to walk?"

"Myself..."

The slightly overweight man gritted his teeth, but before he could answer, he heard a burst of applause coming from afar.

A young man in plain clothes walked over with a smile and said, "Excellent methods, truly excellent methods, and impressive skills. I never expected to see a cultivator of righteous qi who has never appeared in the world for ten thousand years in the Fengdu Realm. My servant was blind, please forgive me, fellow Daoist. Take him away and cripple him!"

With a wave of his hand, two tall men stepped out from behind the young man and walked towards the pale-faced, slightly overweight man.

Ye Qingge narrowed her eyes slightly. The young man seemed to understand Ye Qingge's meaning. Before Ye Qingge could speak, he waved his hand, and two more burly men brought in a box of rare and precious herbs and placed it in front of everyone.

He smiled and said, "I will apologize on behalf of my servant for this matter. These two boxes of resources are my sincerity. Please accept them, young lady. My servant will be crippled and thrown into the wilderness to fend for himself, in accordance with the city lord's rules."

The young man bowed to the little girl, his gesture impeccable, before saying slowly, "However, I treasure this spirit ring in the little girl's hand. I wonder if the little girl would be willing to part with it? I can offer ten boxes of such rare and precious materials to buy it!"

With a snap, the young man flicked his finger, and the two large treasure chests opened, revealing various spiritual plants that were well-preserved and rich in spiritual energy. The onlookers nearby gasped for breath.

His confident gaze fell upon the little girl; the value represented by this rare and precious treasure was so great that it could tempt anyone.

But to his surprise, the little girl firmly rejected the supplies he confidently presented.

The little girl suddenly hid behind Ye Qingge. Luckily, Ye Qingge had changed her height, otherwise she might not have been as tall as the little girl in front of her. She glanced at the box the young man had taken out, tugged at Ye Qingge's sleeve with her little hand, and shook her head, saying, "I don't want these things. I can't keep them. Give them all to this older sister."

"Sister, you are very capable. I wonder if you can heal my grandmother? If you can heal her, I can give you this ring."

The little girl stared intently at Ye Qingge. She was still young and didn't understand profound truths, but her recent experience made her realize that even if she had these things, they wouldn't improve her life.

Why not use this opportunity to get Ye Qingge to help? She has seen Ye Qingge's strength and she is sure she has the ability to heal her grandmother.

On the other side, Qing cleared his throat, his gaze sharp, and a confident smile appeared on his face: "My surname is Fang, fellow Daoist..."

Ye Qingge suddenly smiled and interrupted, "I agree."

The young man's smile froze instantly.

Without giving the young man a chance to react, Ye Qingge flipped the two treasure chests and directly put away the spiritual plants, elixirs, and other resources. Her plan was in dire need of resources, and since the young man had offered them up voluntarily and the little girl had given them to her, she wouldn't be polite.

After doing all this, she gave the young man her signature wicked smile, grabbed the little girl's shoulder with one hand, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

At the very last moment before leaving, I don't know if it was just my imagination.

An unknown force seemed to descend upon the spot, resisting the Heavenly Transformation and Righteous Qi released by Ye Qingge. However, Ye Qingge's current condition made it impossible for her to stay for long. After a brief struggle, her figure disappeared.

A moment later, the young man's face turned angry. Unable to suppress his anger, he roared, "Bastard!"

He regretted it as soon as the words left his mouth. It was unbelievable that someone of his upbringing would utter such vulgarities in public.

However, what he didn't expect was that something even more incredible was yet to come. After he uttered those words, the people around him actually began to agree with him.

"Yes, how could this person be so humiliating, exposing such a shameful act in public? If someone like this happens, they should just be handed over to the city lord's mansion. Criminals also have human rights!"

"Why did that woman just take the little girl away? At first I thought she was a good person, but judging from her actions, she's clearly a demonic cultivator!"

"I never imagined that in this age of great prosperity for the righteous path, someone would still commit such a demonic act in public, witch!"

"Quickly inform the city lord! We must find that witch and ensure the little girl's safety..."

The young man's expression froze as he looked at the crowd in front of him, who had become angry because of his words and were even starting to head towards the city lord's mansion. He felt a sense of absurdity rising in his heart.

Many of these people's words are completely illogical. Do prisoners need human rights? Does taking away a little girl make someone a witch? And... although he shouldn't have such thoughts from his perspective, he still has basic judgment and knows right from wrong, but these people have turned them into excuses for condemnation.

At first, the rumors were outrageous, but they still followed the truth. However, as the story progressed, they began to deviate from the truth, gradually portraying the scene as a female demon who had oppressed the kind and kidnapped little girls descending upon Fengwei City, causing widespread panic.

more importantly……

"I actually thought they were right!"

The young man's face was strange, and his mind told him that these things were absurd, but for some reason, he had a feeling of agreeing with them.

This startled him, and he quickly turned and left, muttering, "What a strange thing, what a strange thing."

On the luxurious spirit ship

The young man returned to his spirit boat with a strange expression. His spirit boat was extremely luxurious, with a simple spatial array inside, making it much larger than it appeared from the outside. As soon as he entered, he saw an distinguished-looking old man already waiting there. The old man bowed respectfully and asked, "Young Master Fang, the spirit ring hasn't been retrieved yet, what should we do next…?"

"check."

The young man's eyes were cold as he sat down in the soft chair, his hand tightly gripping the sash beside him: "The spirit ring contains our sect's confidential documents, which are the key to activating that weapon. It must be retrieved. Furthermore, we can't just make this one preparation; we must also capture that little girl. Time is running out, otherwise we won't be able to use that weapon at all!"

His consciousness gradually returned to calm, freeing him from the interference and influence of the unknown force. Just as he was pondering how to handle the matter, the old man suddenly sensed something. He glanced at a strangely shaped bead in his hand, his expression instantly changing. He said, "Young Master, our asset transfer has run into trouble. We were attacked by those damned demonic cultivators of the Demon Sealing Sect. And these people are extremely cunning; after their sneak attack, they used a backup plan to leave this world. We..."

The young man's face darkened again. He turned to look at the slightly chubby young man who was being carried by two strong men outside the spirit boat, his cultivation completely destroyed and slumped on the ground. He said coldly, "I'm leaving the little girl's affairs here to you. If you don't handle it well... then you'll perish along with this world."

The slightly overweight young man looked frightened and quickly stood up, repeatedly assuring everyone.

One person was left to watch over the slightly chubby young man. The young man surnamed Fang closed the window of the spirit boat, and soon the spirit boat sailed away from the place.

……

……

In a simple brick house

After rescuing an elderly woman, Ye Qingge looked in the direction she had just left. Her divine sense could easily cover the entire city, and those words naturally could not escape her perception.

"Is this the power of your curse? It's incredibly strong!"

Ye Qingge was shocked. Even though she had seen the description in the introduction, she was still terrified to actually witness such a powerful curse.

It's as if they've been rejected by the whole world. No matter what they do, it will be seen as evil from all sorts of angles, and the more it's spread, the more distorted it becomes. Even saints will be portrayed as invincible demons.

Within her consciousness, An Lanmeng's voice echoed: "This is just the beginning. This curse is incredibly powerful; only the righteous energy you just unleashed can barely withstand it. But once the righteous energy dissipates, the power of the curse will descend once more!"

"Just watch, the little girl you saved named Ye Nanshuang will soon be hurling insults at you, and the old woman you saved will soon see you as a devil. The actions of us demonic cultivators are ultimately not understood by the world, and it won't be long before..."

Before An Lanmeng could finish speaking, Ye Qingge suddenly felt someone tugging at her clothes.

Turning her head, she saw a little girl named Ye Nanshuang looking at her timidly and whispering, "Thank you so much for earlier, sister, and thank you for Grandma's matter too."

In her mind's eye, An Lanmeng's voice suddenly stopped, and Ye Qingge also showed a surprised expression.

Having arrived here, she had already suppressed her divine transformation and righteous energy. Logically speaking, in such a short time, the power of the curse should have already descended.

But the little girl named Ye Nanshuang in front of her seemed unaffected, making her wonder if there was something wrong with the curse power on An Lanmeng.

She quickly realized that the problem wasn't the power of the curse, but that this little girl, Ye Nanshuang, was very special!

Behind Ye Nanshuang, the old woman who had been treated by Ye Nanshuang no longer showed gratitude. Instead, she grabbed Ye Nanshuang's arm with a look of fear and hurled insults at her: "I thought you were a kind person who saved me, but I didn't expect you to try to harm my granddaughter..."

Ye Nanshuang opened her mouth wide, wanting to defend Ye Qingge, but the old woman didn't give her the chance at all. She looked anxiously at Ye Qingge, only to see Ye Qingge smile at her slightly, which eased her tense mood.

The next moment, Ye Qingge had a thought and released a mental illusion.

The old woman, who had been speaking harshly to him, suddenly dilated her pupils, returned to her bed, and fell asleep.

Arriving at Ye Nanshuang's side, Ye Qingge casually comforted the little girl by mentioning the aftereffects of her treatment. Then, she stroked her little head, left a mark of soul-capturing magic on her, and after thinking for a moment, added a mind illusion spell.

However, unlike the previous mind illusion, this mind illusion is not aimed at Ye Nanshuang, but at other people who have ill intentions towards Ye Nanshuang. When it is activated, they will be affected by the mind illusion, giving Ye Nanshuang a chance to escape.

"It's rare to encounter such a spirited little girl, and she even shares my surname. It's a pity she's someone else's child. I'm currently in a possessed state, so I can't make the decision for An Lanmeng whether to take her away. Judging from her feelings for her grandmother, I can't take her away either... In that case, I'll try my best to leave her some means of survival."

Judging from the young man's expression, the matter was clearly not over yet. For An Lanmeng, it was nothing; An Lanmeng, who was an enemy of everyone, was not afraid of having another enemy. But the little girl was different. Ye Nanshuang was just an ordinary person living in the city, and she could easily become a target of retaliation.

Ye Qingge's original idea was to leave Ye Nanshuang a means of survival, depending on the available resources, and whether she could survive afterwards would depend on her own efforts.

But after realizing Ye Nanshuang's unique spirituality, she changed her mind and felt pity for the little girl. Unfortunately, she couldn't take her with her for protection in the current situation, so she could only leave some backup plans and help her when she had time.

"Furthermore, the most important reason why Ye Nanshuang was attacked should be this spirit ring."

Ye Qingge glanced at the spirit ring on her hand. This spirit ring, which was coveted by others, actually contained the core design blueprint of some weapon!
