Chapter 512: Chapter 512

In her other hand, she took out the Divine Pen and said cheerily, "Oh right, I sure don’t want to die with you. Anyway, I have a way to escape, so you two can just die together."

"Fine! I’ll return it to you!"

Song You’s face turned from green to white, like a color palette changing.

From her other hand, she pulled out a Black Cloud Stone from the storage bag, ready to hand it to Qing Dai.

Just as Qing Dai was about to take it, Song You suddenly hurled the Black Cloud Stone outside.

A furious roar came from outside, seemingly hitting the beast.

Qing Dai stood on the outer edge, feeling a ringing in her ears, while stones continued to fall from above.

She was distracted for a moment, and with a fierce look in her eyes, Song You snatched the Divine Pen from Qing Dai’s hand and kicked her out through the crevice of the rocks.

The moment Qing Dai flew out, she saw Song You looking at her coldly.

Her lips twitched, silently mouthing two words, "Fool."

Having obtained the Divine Pen, with the beast continuously ramming the rocks, she and Zhu Chuanli hastily left through another direction from the rock crevice.

Once out, Zhu Chuanli chuckled, "Qing Dai is really so naive; we brought her here just to lure her into bringing out the Divine Pen. We haven’t even guided her, yet she brought it out herself."

"Naive?" Song You played with the Divine Pen in her hand, sneering, "More like brainless."

"Yes, Young Master, you are wise."

Zhu Chuanli was extremely attentive to Song You.

He looked at the Divine Pen, desire apparent in his eyes, but he restrained himself.

Now, helping Song You to become the Young Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was the only way for him to achieve the position of an elder.

As for the Sect Leader’s position, Zhu Chuanli hadn’t even thought about it.

Although the elders and the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect typically came from the Song Family, there were also some extremely talented disciples of other surnames who became elders of the sect.

However, the position of Sect Leader was different, as it was passed only to members of the Song Family.

If Song Jian had no offspring and Song You was not competent, it would be passed to another capable disciple from the Song Family.

Song You had tried several times to put the Divine Pen into her storage bag but couldn’t.

Since she couldn’t store it, she kept it in her hand.

During this time, Zhu Chuanli had told her a lot about the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

As for the position of Young Master, Song You was determined to secure it.

After becoming the Young Master, she could quickly find the man who had failed her mother in the past and also bring her clanspeople from the Different World over, using her authority as Young Master to settle them properly.

In the future, she was determined to become a formidable cultivator in the Xuanhai World with a reputation as great as Song Jian’s.

Thinking of this, a smile curved on Song You’s lips.

But soon after, she thought of the girl whose identity she had stolen.

Song You didn’t feel guilty, considering that the girl and Qin Wan were in the Different World and couldn’t come here, and having the sword tassel wasted on them.

Instead, it would be put to better use in her own hands.

As for Song Jian, her nominal father, she would naturally fulfill the daughter’s duties on behalf of that girl.

"Let’s go see elsewhere,"

Song You said to Zhu Chuanli.

She had Qing Dai’s Divine Pen in her hand, so she wouldn’t need to hide the next time they encountered a Demon Beast.

Wherever the Demon Beast was, there must be treasures, and perhaps she could even find a better Magic Artifact.

Zhu Chuanli followed Song You as they left.

On the other side of the rock crevice, there was a loud bang.

A tall, straight man, lithe as jade, in a snow-white, noble robe, stood atop the corpse of the Demon Beast, carrying an angry girl in a red dress.

"That damn Song You!"

Qing Dai gritted her teeth.

She looked up, saw Nan Xian arriving just in time, and felt a bit better in her heart.

"Brother Nan Xian, wuwuwu, I almost lost my life just now!"

Qing Dai clung tightly to his neck, causing Nan Xian’s body to stiffen, his posture becoming rigid.

"Losing your life isn’t quite the case, you still have quite a few treasures, don’t you?"

"Hmph, I can’t give them to other people!"

Indeed, she had many aces up her sleeve, and even without Nan Xian rushing over, she wouldn’t have perished.

It’s just that she felt aggrieved inside and couldn’t help wanting to act spoiled upon seeing a familiar friend.

"Can’t you comfort someone?"

Qing Dai jumped out of his arms and made a face at him.

Then, she hands on hips, looked towards the direction where Song You and Zhu Chuanli were leaving.

"These two big fools, don’t tell me they think they can easily snatch my Divine Pen? Divine Artifacts possess spiritual intelligence and recognize their owner, what use is there for them in stealing it?"

Remembering how Song You had called her a fool, Qing Dai rolled her eyes dramatically.

You are the biggest fool, okay?

As Song You and Zhu Chuanli went on their treasure hunt, they gradually realized this too.

Originally planning to use the Divine Pen against the Demon Beast, it turned out Song You couldn’t control the Divine Pen to unleash its power. They almost lost their lives and ultimately escaped Spiritual Artifact Mountain in a very sorry state.

Besides the Black Cloud Stone and Qing Dai’s Divine Pen, Song You had no other gains.

And Qing Dai’s Divine Pen, she temporarily couldn’t use either.

Outside Spiritual Artifact Mountain, the dirtied Song You stared at the Divine Pen in his hands, a dark expression on his face.

At this moment, a disciple approached.

"Senior Brother Zhu, that newcomer Guan Lin has been looking for you."

After Song You entered the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, he had Zhu Chuanli find a way to get Guan Lin in as well.

Previously, Song Jian had asked Song You how she came to this world, mentioning the Luoshui Clan and stating that a clansman from Luoshui came with her.

In actuality, that clansman from Luoshui was her.

But right now, she needed to keep Song Jian from discovering her issues, so she wanted Guan Lin to pretend to be this clansman.

"Song You! Senior Zhu!"

Amidst her thoughts, Guan Lin had already approached.

Song You checked the surrounding area. The outskirts of Spiritual Artifact Mountain were secluded with no one around.

The disciples who had come with them had long since returned.

Song You said to Zhu Chuanli, "Brother Guan must be seeking me for something; I’d like to talk to him alone."

Zhu Chuanli nodded, "Alright, then I’ll leave first."

He left with the disciple, and Song You’s expression became serious.

"Brother Guan, there’s something I need your help with."

"What is it? Just tell me."

Guan Lin not only had feelings for Song You but also became a disciple of Heavenly Mechanism Sect because of her, something he could scarcely even dream of before.

Thus, Guan Lin was very grateful to her and willing to do anything for her.

"You know, I come from a Different World. On my way here, I encountered many dangers that caused the Luoshui person, who was helping me, to die. I hope you can pretend to be him."

"Why pretend to be him?"

Guan Lin asked curiously.

"Because the Sect Leader might inquire about some matters. The Luoshui Clan has done me a great favor, and I want to bring them over to this world to cultivate properly in the future."

"That’s naturally no problem, but how should I pretend?"

Song You discussed the Luoshui Clan with him, so he could handle Song Jian’s inquiries.

"Oh, is she also from Kunlun Mountain?"

Their conversation was overheard by Nan Xian and Qing Dai, who were hidden nearby.

Originally, Nan Xian and Qing Dai were following Song You to retrieve the Divine Pen and simultaneously give Qing Dai a chance for revenge. Instead, they unexpectedly stumbled upon a big secret.
