Jianchen guessed the woman's identity without even thinking about it as he looked at the woman's back and the owner of the manor.
He sighed inside. He felt powerless after falling into the hands of the Rain Abbess. Fortunately, he decided to throw caution to the wind and said, "Junior naturally knows a thing or two. Not only is the Innate Orchid of Five Elements a natural item, but it also possesses Xuanhuang Qi. Just these two things alone are enough to make the Innate Orchid of Five Elements a priceless treasure. It's rare."
"Since you already know the value of the Innate Orchid of Five Elements, is it with you?" The Rain Abbess asked. Her voice was extremely cold.
"Abbess, with your great strength and insight, you must have noticed that the Innate Orchid of Five Elements isn't with me long ago." Jianchen's expression became strange. He felt that the Rain Abbess' question was unnecessary.
"Innate Orchid of Five Elements with Xuanhuang Qi is extremely rare. Even with the entire Saints' World in perspective, you probably won't be able to find three of them. It's one thing for you to fight for it, but instead of taking it for yourself, you're giving it to someone else. Is that worth it?"
Before Jianchen could reply, the Rain Abbess continued, "Or in other words, have you been coerced by the people of the Heavenly Demon Religion? I can see the corpse powder of the Spatial Insect on you, and you've ingested a Soul-numbing Pill. The Spatial Insect Emperor has entered your head as well. Is the Heavenly Demon Religion using you to steal the soul of the Spatial Insect Emperor I've sealed here? "
The Rain Abbess' voice suddenly turned cold. It was filled with heavy killing intent. "The Heavenly Demon Religion, the Heavenly Demon Religion. What a vicious demonic religion to do something so vicious."
"Abbess, you've misunderstood. The Heavenly Demon Religion did not coerce me. Everything I did was of my own volition," Jianchen said, directly coming clean.
Even though he knew that if he continued with the Rain Abbess' misunderstanding and pushed all the blame to the Heavenly Demon Religion, the Rain Abbess might have let him off lightly, he did not do that.
"What? He didn't coerce you? You did all of this willingly? "The Rain Abbess suddenly turned around and glared at Jian Chen. She was unable to suppress her anger.
"That's right, I did it willingly. Master, now that I've fallen into your hands, you can do whatever you want to me." Jianchen looked as if he had already accepted his fate.
Indeed, he could not find any way to break free now that he had fallen into the hands of the Rain Abbess. This was because the Rain Abbess was just too powerful. Even if he summoned the Martial Soul lineage, it would be impossible for them to be the Rain Abbess' opponent. As a matter of fact, it would cause great trouble for the Martial Soul lineage.
Moreover, the Rain Abbess controlled the Laws of Space. Even if the Martial Soul Mountain arrived in the outer space of the Delight Plane, it would be impossible for him to fly up to the mountain soul in front of an expert skilled in the Laws of Space.
Although he could still fuse the twin swords, he did not have enough time to do so before the Rain Abbess.
The fusion of the twin swords could not be completed in a single moment. If the Rain Abbess wanted to kill him, it would only take a single moment.
"Hmph, you stole my Innate Orchid of Five Elements, and you even dared to set your sights on the soul of the Spatial Insect Emperor. If it were anyone else, their soul would have been wiped out long ago, and they would have truly returned to the world. However, why is it you, Jianchen?" The Rain Abbess said through gritted teeth. However, her voice was rather powerless.
"The abbess actually knows about me?" Now, it was Jianchen's turn to be surprised. He stared at the Rain Abbess in surprise. With the Rain Abbess' status, she actually knew about someone as insignificant as him. This surprised Jianchen very much.
"Of course I know about the eighth successor of the Martial Soul lineage." The Rain Abbess slowly made her way towards Jianchen. She seemed to be in her thirties. Even though she was approaching middle age, she still retained her youthful beauty.
However, her eyes were very cold. Her gaze towards Jianchen was very cold as well, like a piece of ice that would never melt. Even though she did not give off any killing intent, Jianchen still felt an invisible pressure crush down on him as she approached him.
"Jianchen, as the eighth successor of the Martial Soul lineage, why are you colluding with the people of the Heavenly Demon Religion to steal my heavenly resources?" The Rain Abbess stared straight at Jianchen as if she wanted to see through Jianchen's mind.
The light in Jianchen's eyes flickered. He found the Rain Abbess' attitude to be very strange. After a moment of silence, just when he wanted to say something, his face suddenly changed. Blood suddenly flowed out from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. His body shook violently, and he directly fell to the ground.
In his sea of consciousness, the soul of the Spatial Insect Emperor that had slumbered recently suddenly woke up. It was no longer as muddle-headed as when Jianchen had first met it. It only acted on instinct.
After waking up, it seemed to retain some intelligence. It did not directly devour Jianchen's soul. Instead, it began to attack Jianchen's soul wildly as if it wanted to rip Jianchen's soul to pieces.
It was impossible for Jianchen's soul to be the Spatial Insect Emperor's opponent. He basically could not fight back at all against the Spatial Insect Emperor's crazy attacks.
Just when Jianchen felt like his soul was about to be ripped to pieces, a gentle energy suddenly poured in from the outside world. With the appearance of the gentle energy, Jianchen immediately felt all the pain leave him. Afterwards, he fainted again.
Outside, the white-robed Rain Abbess stood beside Jianchen. She pressed a slender finger against Jianchen's forehead gently before pulling gently. A white mist immediately emerged from the Rain Abbess' finger.
The white mist seemed to be alive. It constantly struggled in the Rain Abbess' hand. Its shape changed rapidly as well, sometimes taking the shape of a cloud, sometimes taking the shape of an insect, and sometimes vanishing. It was as if it had completely vanished into space, leaving no traces behind.
However, no matter how it changed and how it struggled, it was unable to escape from the Rain Abbess' finger.
It was as if the Rain Abbess' slender finger possessed some sort of magic, binding it firmly such that it could not break free.
The white mist was the soul of the Spatial Insect Emperor.
In the end, the Spatial Insect Emperor stopped struggling. It turned into an insect that was only two inches long. It coiled around the Rain Abbess' finger as it trembled in fear.
Even though the insect was still an illusionary soul, it was extremely close to a physical body. It was snow-white, and it really did seem like a celestial silkworm.
…
After who knew how long, Jianchen woke up again. He discovered that he was lying in a wooden barrel filled with green liquid. He had no idea what the green liquid was, but it was cool. Strands of wondrous energy entered his body from the green liquid.
