Sha Chen ultimately didn't give White Bone Demon too hard a time.
He checked her body over and over again, prying open every opening he could find, ensuring that she had no problems whatsoever.
Then he simply untied the ropes and let her go.
As White Bone Demon said, she had made contributions, and the merit of stealing from White Bone Saint's treasury was immense. In Sha Chen's eyes, it really was so, because Sha Chen was in such dire straits. He was reduced to austere cultivation: eating flat peaches, drinking osmanthus wine, and limited to consuming only three first-class Immortal Elixirs a month for his cultivation.
In the past, such a scenario was simply unimaginable.
White Bone Demon narrowly escaped death. She felt relieved and secretly thought, That was a close call! She was glad she hadn't betrayed Sha Chen.
Otherwise, Sha Chen would have been able to obliterate her on the spot.
