After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 489 The Snow Mountain Goddess Will Be Great Again

Zhang Chi and Miao Yin's grand performance, Snow Mountain Goddess, was watched from beginning to end.

Originally, it was just a glance, but then I thought, since I've already watched this much, I might as well stay a little longer.

As a result, she successfully unlocked more knowledge.

Thinking about how this couple played around so much, Snow Mountain Goddess couldn't bear to look at Miao Yin anymore.

Mainly because she had also played the role of Miao Yin, and now Miao Yin was playing her...

Truly, the cycle of heaven is amazing, who can escape the heavens' will.

Not to mention, Miao Yin's acting skills are good, and Snow Mountain Goddess even felt a sense of identification.

Isn't this Snow Mountain Goddess herself?

Oh, Miao Yin also stayed in the divine realm for a while, so imitating the goddess's temperament is not a problem at all.

"All of this is a pit I dug myself..."

After watching the grand performance, Snow Mountain Goddess completely shut herself off.

Since she had already assigned all the tasks that needed to be done, she simply hid back in her Divine Domain and stopped wandering around.

After the performance, Zhang Chi and Miao Yin stuck together and chatted.

Talking about love, that's what they talked about first.

Chatting with each other from time to time brings their hearts closer, and only then will their bodies be closer.

Zhang Chi briefly talked about what had happened to him during this time, and mentioned his plans for the future.

"I plan to hone my swordsmanship in the Sword Sect realm. This is not a suitable place for cultivation. You can continue your cultivation in the Snow Mountain Goddess temple. When I have refined my swordsmanship, I will naturally come find you."

The most suitable place for Miao Yin to cultivate is the Snow Mountain Goddess temple, and if she encounters any danger, she can seek help from Snow Mountain Goddess.

With Miao Yin's current strength, there won't be many dangers she can encounter.

Miao Yin carefully stared at Zhang Chi for a long time and said, "Did something happen? I feel like you have a strange sense of urgency."

The previous Zhang Chi used to handle things calmly, as if there was nothing worth worrying about, as if everything was under his control.

But now, Zhang Chi has something on his mind.

"Actually, I used to be like this too, it's just not easy to see through it."

Zhang Chi and Miao Yin are already in such an intimate relationship, so he no longer minds showing his true self in front of her.

"Look, I used to appear calm and composed, but it was all an act. I'm actually timid, and I would imagine how others would harm me before I even encountered an enemy."

So every time someone made a move, I could predict it in advance, so it would appear that I was calm and composed.

Miao Yin: "..."

So that's how it is?

However, hearing Zhang Chi say this, she couldn't help but feel that Zhang Chi was even more amazing.

Others can remain calm and composed because they have the strength to do so.

Zhang Chi is different. He avoids all risks because his strength is not strong enough. Isn't this much better than those reckless men?

Miao Yin then realized that since Zhang Chi can always anticipate and avoid risks, why is he in a hurry this time?

"Are you facing an unsolvable problem now?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chi couldn't help but kiss Miao Yin on the face.

"Or maybe you understand me."

With just a few words, Miao Yin could also interpret what Zhang Chi was thinking, truly giving her a sense of being a confidant.

Of course, Zhang Chi also likes his silly and clumsy girlfriend Miao Yin, but there aren't many who can be as clingy and understand his thoughts like Miao Yin.

However, Zhang Chi didn't know that Miao Yin's mind was already clever, and she didn't need to think about anything else. She focused all her thoughts on Zhang Chi, so how could she not understand him?

Others haven't realized it yet, but Miao Yin has already figured it out.

She understands Zhang Chi's intentions the most and can appreciate the meaning behind every word he says.

With such a combination of inner and outer qualities, isn't she firmly in the position of the main wife?

The so-called main wife is not determined by Zhang Chi's nominal wife, but by who holds a greater place in Zhang Chi's heart.

In Miao Yin's view, Tang Ruoling is not a concern. Her lack of strength is a weakness, and while Zhang Chi will take care of her, it's difficult for them to truly connect.

Long Yan is even less of a concern. She's no different from a pile of bones in a tomb. Although she has been with Zhang Chi for a longer time, her heart is not pure enough to enter Zhang Chi's heart.

As for Chen Runyu, she's not even worth mentioning. She may have taken the position of a junior sister, but she hasn't had an intimate relationship with Zhang Chi, so she falls short.

Hong Li doesn't need to be mentioned either. She's just a tool for cultivation. She's gone somewhere now, and it's unlikely she holds any place in Zhang Chi's heart.

The only person that Miao Yin is somewhat wary of is Jin Ling'er.

Jin Ling'er, like her, is pure-hearted but also intelligent.

Someone like Long Yan thinks too much but lacks intelligence.

Jin Ling'er knows how to be tactful, appearing reserved in public but alluring in private.

It can be said that Jin Ling'er is the biggest competitor, and Miao Yin wants to surpass her.

Returning to the main topic, Miao Yin hit on Zhang Chi's worries, so he didn't hide anything from her.

"I happened to go out for a stroll this time and realized that chaos is about to erupt in this world. It may not take long, maybe tomorrow or the day after, or it could stretch out to ten or twenty years.

But I estimate that in my lifetime, I will definitely witness it."

Miao Yin: "..."

It's not a good thing, so why witness it?

After thinking for a moment, Miao Yin asked, "Can you tell me how you figured it out? I want to learn too."

When she looks at Zhang Chi, there is no doubt in her eyes, only admiration.

Zhang Chi also enjoys the pleasure of showing off in front of his wife, so he carefully explained the basis of his judgment.

"The fundamental reason is that the current resources in the Immortal Cultivation World can no longer keep up with the expansion speed of cultivators, leading to uneven resource distribution. The rise of new influential families has intensified conflicts with the old established families.

The direct reason is that the Wenren Family, an old aristocratic family, has killed a large number of outstanding descendants from the new influential families. This matter will eventually be exposed and may become the spark for a major war among the families.

The indirect reason is the disappearance of the Ghost Clan and Demon Race, as well as the decline of the Monster Race. Losing powerful enemies, internal conflicts cannot be transformed into external conflicts."

Zhang Chi, with a background in liberal arts, hasn't forgotten the three-part structure of answering questions after all these years.

Miao Yin listened with a puzzled expression, as if she understood and yet didn't understand.

She could comprehend the latter two reasons, but she didn't quite understand the resource distribution in the Immortal Cultivation World.

Because she has never experienced a shortage of cultivation resources since she was young, she naturally couldn't understand Zhang Chi's words.

If her status were lower, perhaps she would understand.

Resources are limited. If A takes more, then B will have less, and conflicts arise.

Such conflicts are almost impossible to reconcile. In the past, when there were external conflicts, everyone could restrain themselves and prioritize the overall situation.

Now, after so many years of peace, it's all thanks to the suppression of the seven major pillar forces.

But the pillar forces are not almighty, and conflicts cannot be suppressed indefinitely.

During this trip, Zhang Chi gathered a lot of information.

He gathered information about the Eastern Continent while in the Eastern Continent, collected clues about the Southern Continent, and Jiang Qingyun provided information about Central State.

Therefore, Zhang Chi also knows how those major families have developed.

Old-established families like the Wenren Family have long been associated with the Tianzhu Family and have made significant contributions in previous battles, so they were initially very powerful.

Other families have continuously developed and expanded their own influence over the long years, swallowing up the forces of other families and growing stronger themselves.

Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. After merging with each other, the big families will eventually collide and fight for resources.

The old-established families have the Tianzhu influence, and the newly wealthy families also know the power of the Tianzhu influence.

So everyone looks for a backer, and in the end, only the families with a backer can survive, while the rest either get wiped out or struggle to survive in the cracks, with weak power that is not worth worrying about.

Does the Tianzhu influence not need resources or development?

In the long process of development, the Tianzhu influence coordinates relationships among various parties, but the seven major forces are not one family and do not wear the same pants.

There are internal struggles among them, let alone external forces.

Only the families that have joined the Tianzhu influence are dividing the four continents, and there are still frictions between them.

Peace is temporary, and struggle is eternal.

The world may seem peaceful, but after Zhang Chi collected information, he felt that it was a powder keg approaching its limit.

Coincidentally, Wenren Shu is killing a lot of people, which happens to be able to serve as a fuse.

Then, let the explosion happen!

It's just that the Western Continent is barren and far from the Central State, so there is not much family influence developing here.

But who knows if someone will target this cake one day? Even a small fly is meat, and someone will come and take a bite.

Zhang Chi also doesn't know when this bomb will explode, but he feels that it won't be long.

Sure enough, the Black Lotus Flower has already run away from the Central State.

Zhang Chi thinks that Snow Mountain Goddess may have misunderstood the cause and effect.

It's not the source of calamity that caused chaos in the world, but the world was destined to be chaotic, and the Black Lotus Flower just happened to ignite it.

After knowing that the Black Lotus Flower has jumped onto its own platform, Zhang Chi knows who it has jumped to with a high probability.

Most likely, it's Wenren Shu!

In theory, it should be like this, but it doesn't feel quite right.

Will the Black Lotus Flower guide Wenren Shu to become a ghost?

There seems to be something wrong with this, but Zhang Chi doesn't have enough information and can only speculate up to this point.

"War is imminent, only by improving one's cultivation can one protect oneself. Of course, you can also seek the protection of Snow Mountain Goddess. I think she is a very good goddess and won't refuse you."

Zhang Chi doesn't know if the goddess is eavesdropping, so he starts with kind words.

Miao Yin nods and says, "Since the goddess can protect us, why rush?"

"Life is like a counter-current, I can't always hide behind and wait for you to protect me. Although Snow Mountain Goddess is powerful, she may also encounter enemies she can't deal with one day. If I'm not strong enough, how can I protect you?"

Miao Yin: "..."

Although Zhang Chi is still weak, his determination still moves Miao Yin.

"I will also work hard to cultivate, and you should prioritize yourself and not try to shoulder everything."

"Don't worry, I won't."

Snow Mountain Goddess, who couldn't help but eavesdrop for a while, snorted arrogantly.

This goddess is invincible in the world. If you want to protect me, go and cultivate for tens of thousands of years!

Although she says that, her mood is actually quite good.

Seeing that this kid is still sensible, if someone really comes to attack the Central State, she might as well let the Central State see the power of a goddess.

After some consideration, the Snow Mountain Goddess issued another oracle.

"Spread the teachings and let the people of the Western Continent return to the embrace of the Snow Mountain."

The priests of the Snow Mountain Goddess Temple were immediately filled with excitement upon receiving this new oracle.

In the past, the Snow Mountain Goddess had been reluctant to provoke trouble, which had caused the Snow Mountain Goddess religion to shrink.

However, there were still followers of the Snow Mountain Goddess scattered throughout the Western Continent.

Now that the goddess herself had spoken, the priests were filled with renewed vigor.

"Let the name of the goddess be great once again!"

The Snow Mountain Goddess Temple once again began widespread missionary work, which became the hottest topic in the Western Continent.

Some scouts from the Central Continent relayed the news back, and even those who had nothing to do were interested in seeing what was happening in the Western Continent.

Fight, fight!

Cultivators were also bored and enjoyed watching people fight.

However, to everyone's disappointment, there was no conflict from beginning to end.

Because of Miao Yin, the Snow Mountain Goddess Temple faced no obstacles in the activities of the Ghost Hunting Alliance, and even Zhang Chi often praised the goddess in a serious manner.

The only opposing force was the Eastern Sovereign Palace, but the Dongfang Family had long adopted a "Buddhist" attitude. The word spread, and everyone joined the Snow Mountain Goddess religion.

Believe in the goddess and be safe.

The Snow Mountain Goddess Temple became a dominant force in the Western Continent, causing various factions in the Central Continent to become wary, especially some ancient families who knew the inside story, and they dared not make any moves against the Western Continent.

The Western Continent was considered a lost cause, and the onlookers from the Central Continent were also disappointed.

But just when they were feeling disappointed, a big event occurred!

Someone claimed to have seen Wenren Shu, the missing daughter of the Wenren Family, and saw her eating people.

For a while, the major families were shocked.

Everyone recalled the badly mutilated remains of Leng Qinghan, and the truth seemed to become clear.

Under the questioning of various forces, the head of the Wenren Family immediately broke down.

"Fake news, it's all fake news!"

Wenren Shu was being kept in the secret base of the Wenren Family and had never left!

His firm statement also aroused suspicion from Leng Family's envoy, Leng Yuefeng.

"Wenren Family head, why are you so sure that this news is fake? Without verification, it can only be considered doubtful, right? Or is it that the Wenren Family knows where Wenren Shu is, which is why you can confirm that this is fake news?"

Leng Yuefeng's words were cutting, but others also realized the point.

It made sense. Without concrete evidence, who could be so certain?

The head of the Wenren Family must be convinced of Wenren Shu's innocence, which is why he was so angry.

"Wenren Family head, if you know where Wenren Shu is, why not just say it? If Miss Wenren is truly innocent, then we wouldn't be able to wrongly accuse him, right?"

"Yeah, bring her out, and we can also find out the cause and effect of the tragedy in the Secret Realm."

"Wenren Family head, are you hiding Wenren Shu because you feel guilty?"

...

A large group of people bombarded him with questions, causing the blood pressure of the head of the Wenren Family to soar.

When the incident happened, the young master of the Beichen Family, who had formed a marriage alliance with the Wenren Family, had already come to warn them once. If the Wenren Family could handle the matter of Wenren Shu well, the alliance could continue.

But if bad rumors spread, the alliance would be immediately canceled.

Today, he had indeed shown some loss of composure. He was too eager to defend himself and ended up being caught in a loophole by Leng Yuefeng.

Now, the pressure was on the head of the Wenren Family. Whether he could resolve the crisis or not depended on how he could cleverly argue... (End of this chapter)
