Chapter 249: The Regent Prince's Greatest Secret

With the Regent Prince's promise, the Prince naturally had no fear! He immediately ordered people to arrange to send things to Shen Qingli.

"That little slut is extremely greedy! She must be unwilling to give up the treasures I sent out! As long as she accepts them and puts them indoors, everything will be out of her control!" The Prince, upon recalling how Shen Qingli had openly robbed him before, concluded she was very greedy!

As long as she's greedy, it's easy! Isn't it just loving treasures? He just sent his family's most precious treasure to her!

And this treasure—

Shen Qingli really needs it!

But when things go awry, there must be something suspicious!

"Goddess, this is the Prince's compensation gift. Where would you like me to place it?"

The monk-official who came to deliver the gift held the treasure in his hands, asking cautiously.

In Shen Qingli's mind, the Fusang Divine Tree kept transmitting thoughts to her!

"Seize it! Seize it! This gold nugget can keep the fruit from falling for a short time."

"What is this?" Shen Qingli asked.

Zhan Yuefeng had actually already been explaining.

"This object, is it not the ancestral Buddha's relic of your sect?"

The Ancestral Buddha, the god who created heaven and earth in the Western Sect, is akin to the Pangu ancestor god of the Daoist court.

His status is illustrious, and his relic actually still exists in the world!?

Zhan Yuefeng never expected it; he had always thought it was just a legend.

"Exactly."

The devout, respectful, and careful monk-official actually didn't understand how the Prince could give away such a precious treasure.

Upon hearing what was inside the box, he was so startled he almost turned around! How could such a precious treasure be entrusted to him for delivery?

"It's too valuable." Shen Qingting felt she couldn't accept it, "Please take it back."

"Not bad. If we accept this gift, wouldn't that be rude?" Zhan Yuefeng also felt they shouldn't accept it.

The Fusang Divine Tree was very anxious, after all Shen Qingli had given it permission, and now it could sense the outside world!

"We can't not want it!"

"If we don't want the fruit, it will rot!"

The fruit in the Fusang Divine Tree's mouth was just one.

Di Jin, that is its most precious fruit now.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier that the fruit would rot?"

Shen Qingli held a doubtful attitude, but inside she was actually quite anxious.

The Fusang Divine Tree indeed felt a bit guilty, "Then, it'll be soon! Really, we can't not want it."

"I understand." Shen Qingli didn't directly promise the Fusang Divine Tree, first pressing it back.

Little Fusang, although a divine tree, seems young and doesn't understand the wickedness of human hearts.

She and the Prince have little acquaintance; him suddenly sending this must be suspicious.

But since it is such a precious treasure, not accepting it would be a disservice to Ah Jin's sacrifice.

"The Prince said, if the Goddess does not accept it, it means she is unwilling to forgive him."

"Accepting it wouldn't make us enemies of your sect?" Shen Qingting thought this person was quite scheming!

The monk-official said nothing; he indeed felt Shen Qingli was unworthy! But this was the Prince's intention.

He ultimately could only kneel and say, "I'm just here to deliver the gift; I've brought the item. If the Goddess wishes to send it back, please do it yourself, and please don't make things difficult for me."

"It's you Prince who's making things difficult for me; what does it have to do with my little sister? Take it!" Shen Qingting couldn't stand those who rely on their weakness to cause trouble for her little sister.

"If you don't take it away, I'll just smash it! If it gets damaged then, that'll be your sect's affair!" Shen Qingting also threatened.

The monk-official's face changed; he was indeed embarrassed.

"Forget it."

Shen Qingli sighed, looking pitiful.

"Since you're being made difficult, I'll send it back myself."

"Little sister?" Shen Qingting exclaimed, always feeling something was off.

"Thank you, Goddess, for your understanding." The monk-official immediately set down the treasure, hastily bowing and retreating, as if he were holding not a treasure but a hot potato.

After they left, Shen Qingli immediately stored the gift in her space, wanting to see what this thing was all about, why they insisted on giving it to her!

But as soon as the treasure entered the space, the Fusang Divine Tree swallowed it up at once!

"You—" Shen Qingli didn't even have time to stop.

However, since she had taken it, it was originally meant for the divine tree.

She was only worried that the relic might have a problem, but after observing it a bit, it seemed fine?

"Little sister?"

"Little junior sister?"

The voices of Shen Qingting and Zhan Yuefeng called her back from the space to her senses.

"Accepting it like this, is there no problem?"

"What problem? I'll immediately become the wife of their Holy Buddha."

These words, Shen Qingting and the two really couldn't refute, but…

"Are you sure?" Shen Qingting doubted, that really is her little sister's husband!

Although we had guessed it, the fact before us is still quite shocking!

What is this? Charging straight into enemy territory and becoming their supreme god?

"I never imagined the little sister's husband would be such a ruthless person."

The little sister's husband in Shen Qingtong's memory was very well-behaved, always listening to the little sister.

Getting along with these elder brothers was also quite easy; could it be that the Dao Lord didn't say it, or was it the Holy Buddha?

"Worthy of being the little sister's husband!" Shen Qingtong was satisfied; only someone like this is worthy of the little sister.

Otherwise, if he were truly a delicate husband, there would be some regret; but the little sister's husband like this is equivalent to letting the little sister enjoy both wife and concubine—quite presentable and also very interesting!

"Worthy of being my Seventh Uncle!" Shen Qingtong said again.

Shen Qingli was speechless: "... How did this even drag my father into it?"

"Well taught." Shen Qingtong truly admired him, "What are you planning now—are you really going to personally send him back?"

"Impossible." Shen Qingli had no intention of returning it, "Whatever is in my hands, no one dare think of taking it away."

"The other party may have ill intentions." Zhan Yuefeng was a little worried.

"If we don't take it, they also have ill intentions. Since that's the case, why not take it?"

Shen Qingli saw it clearly: whether they take it or not, they are just trying to scheme against her.

Rather than doubt and worry, it's better to first eat the fat meat! As for the subsequent problems, we'll just solve them.

Otherwise, having been schemed against and gaining no benefit at all—wouldn't that be even more of a loss?

"Makes sense!" Shen Qingtong nodded, also comforting Zhan Yuefeng, "Don't worry, I've already sent our written request; the Golden Upper General surely has received the news, so no one will dare to make things difficult for the little sister."

"Let's rest first." Shen Qingli glanced at the sky, "The Western Sect actually really has a day-night distinction."

Before coming, although she had heard about the situation here, she was still quite curious what the night here would look like.

Could it be like Sheng Long Tian, with the sun rising and moon setting? But the sun and moon are both in the heavens, and the Western Sect is also in the heavens.

That night, after nightfall, besides there being no moon in the sky, it really was much the same.

"A Li, the Regent Prince seems rather dangerous—should we really go?"

Jiu Li curled up in Shen Qingli's arms, also quite worried—can't we just take a break for a moment?

"No, A Jin is currently in great danger."

Shen Qingli clearly understood that she must now help A Jin expand their advantage!

"You wouldn't really want to kill the Regent Prince, would you? We can't do that."

"Let's first scout it out."

What Shen Qingli most wants to know is still the relationship between Zhao Yue and the Regent Prince!

At first, she thought Zhao Yue was the Regent Prince.

After calming down, however, she felt there was another possibility.

The Regent Prince thought Zhao Yue was her heart-demon, deliberately appearing in this guise?

If that's the case, the Regent Prince might also be waiting for her to take the bait!

"Have you stopped? Aren't you leaving? Do you want to go back?"

Jiu Li felt uneasy inside, always sensing that something would happen.

Shen Qingli actually also faintly sensed the danger.

But they suddenly sent over a supreme treasure……

This disrupted her plan to first refine pills and then act.

Now, she gazed deep into the Court! Her bloodline faintly stirred.

She had a premonition that the Court's greatest secret might lie there.

Should she play it safe, or just go for it?
