Chapter 226 Recovering Sanity

City of Heaven, Temple.

Zi Ling picked up the flowers with ease and trimmed the flowers on the windowsill slowly and leisurely with a pair of scissors in her hand.

The maid next to her couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, you have taken good care of the flowers. There aren't any extra branches at all."

Zi Ling smiled lightly, revealing a look of ease: "Taking care of the flowers is also a process of internal management. When you calm down, you can find out what you want and what you need to get rid of."

She picked up a flower bud that was growing sideways. "Just like this flower, if we leave it alone, it will only rob the main branch of nutrients. Although it will make the main branch look a little thinner after being cut off, if we want the main branch to bloom more vigorously, we have to pay some price."

Zi Ling was cutting off the wild flower when the door was suddenly pushed open, causing her hand to be deflected half an inch, and the main branch was also pulled down with it.

A gap suddenly appeared in the neatly trimmed flower cluster.

Zi Ling frowned and turned to look at the person who came.

Helmei appeared at the door holding the unconscious E Ling, followed by Yin Chen and Chang Ze.

When he saw Zi Ling, Changze frowned and avoided Zi Ling's gaze somewhat uncomfortably.

The maid protected Zi Ling behind her and shouted angrily, "How dare you! How can we allow you to enter the holy temple without informing us? Where are the guards? Stop them!"

The noise successfully caught Helmer's attention. He stretched out his tentacles, rolled up the waitress's body and threw her out. The waitress screamed and then shut her mouth completely.

Zi Ling was in a good mood, with a kind and decent smile on her face: "Child, I told you that one day you will come back to find me."

Helmer stepped in and said, "Ling'er absorbed the power of five spirit stones according to your instructions, but lost her mind because of it. Shouldn't the goddess give us an explanation?"

"Don't worry, kids. Your partner was deprived of her consciousness only because she couldn't bear the power of the spirit stone for a while. I will cast a spell to make her regain consciousness."

As she spoke, the goddess chanted a spell and a stream of light flowed from her fingertips.

Zi Ling tapped E Ling's forehead, and the light entered E Ling's body.

E Ling groaned, opened her eyes, and looked at the goddess in front of her with a smile. She was stunned for a moment, "Why are you here? No..."

E Ling rubbed her aching temple and looked around, convinced that this was the temple. "Why am I here... My head hurts, my body aches, what on earth happened?"

She always felt like she had had a fight with someone, but she had no memory of losing her mind, so she couldn't help but feel strange about her current situation.

Seeing that E Ling had regained her sanity, Helmer couldn't help but hug her tightly, "Ling Er, I'm so glad that you're okay!"

Yin Chen and Chang Ze also came over to ask about E Ling's situation.

E Ling looked at Chang Ze who was safe and sound, and remembered something, "Chang Ze... I remember I was using the spirit stone to help you remove the curse, and then... I don't remember anything."

"Ling, the power after the fusion of the spirit stone is too strong. Your body can't withstand it and you lost your sanity. We brought you to the City of Heaven to seek help." Changze explained.

No wonder she always felt uncomfortable, as if there was a powerful force running through her body. Although this force was temporarily suppressed, she was always worried that it would break free and come back again.

"Okay, kids, it's time to reminisce about the past, right? Leave your partners here, I have something to say to them." Zi Ling looked at E Ling and smiled gently.

Helmer showed his guard: "Ling'er's business is my business. Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"

The smile on Changze's face gradually faded, and he stopped E Ling behind him, "Your Highness, the Goddess, my partner has just woken up, and his body is still very weak. It is not suitable for him to be alone with you."

The gentle smile on Zi Ling's face also disappeared, and when she looked at Chang Ze, there was even a hint of murderous intent in her eyes, "Chang Ze, you are still alive today, entirely because of my kindness. You are a filthy thing that only ruined my noble life, and you are not worthy of negotiating terms with me at all."

They are obviously mother and son whose blood is thicker than water, but the look Zi Ling gave him did not have any motherly love in it.

There is only endless resentment and disgust.

Nagasawa was obviously stung by her hateful gaze and his eyes dodged for a moment.

Zi Ling's dislike for him has been going on for a long time, and Changze has long been accustomed to it, but he still feels hurt and sad in his heart.

How could E Ling not notice the subtlety between them? She propped herself up and broke free from He'er's embrace, then stood between Changze and Ziling without showing any expression, saying, "Changze, He'er, both of you go out first. I have something to ask Her Highness the Goddess."

He Er was worried: "Ling'er, your body...can't be forced."

E Ling shook her head. "I know my limits. Don't worry. Her Highness the Goddess will definitely not want anything to happen to me at this time. I am safe."

Hearing her firm tone, Helmer and the others had no choice but to leave the temple.

Only Zi Ling and E Ling were left staring at each other.

Zi Ling was gentle and kind again, and smiled: "Child, I think you must have a lot of doubts and guesses in your heart."

E Ling didn't beat around the bush and asked her questions straight to the point:

"Are you the one who brought me into this world?"

"Or should I ask you what your relationship is to the systems in my body?"

"What do you want to achieve by controlling me? Do you want to control the City of Heaven? Or do you want to rule the world? I don't think it's the former. After all, your position in the City of Heaven is unshakable. So, it should be the second one... You are not satisfied with the status quo, not satisfied with your ambitions. You want to use me as a target, let me control all aspects of the world, and then you can control me. Is that right?"

Zi Ling was amused by her and lovingly lifted a strand of red curly hair on her chest and played with it.

"What a satisfying reasoning, kid. I really did not choose you wrongly. You are much smarter than those other females who only know how to rely on the favor of males to gain a certain status."

E Ling took a step back, and the strand of hair quietly slipped away from Zi Ling's hands.

"Don't talk nonsense. It's already this late. The goddess doesn't want to play hide-and-seek with me anymore, right?"

Zi Ling rubbed her fingers and said, "Okay, kid, let's get straight to the point and talk about the terms."

"Your guess is correct. It was me who summoned you to this world. It was me who created the so-called system to bind you. Every task the system asked you to do was the embodiment of my will. I need you to become stronger. The stronger you are, the more powerful males you can attract. The stronger you are, the more you have the capital to control this world!

But child, you are wrong about one thing. The purpose of making you stronger is not to control you, nor to make you my puppet. I don’t need that. And what I want is not to take this world into my pocket. What I hate is the rules of this world!"

Zi Ling's tone gradually became excited, and the smile on her face was no longer gentle and amiable, but revealed an almost perverted desire for control.
