Chapter 278 Long Siyin's Path
As it turns out, Xue Lan really does have some talent when it comes to calculating with aura.
Xue Lan looked in the direction from which the cold female voice came...
A cold, aloof Daoist, dressed in white, stood in the dim light of dawn, his expression dignified.
Xuanji Zhenren stood behind Qingyin Daojun and looked at Xue Lan.
Xue Tong saw a trace of pity in his eyes.
So the girl made a slight movement, preparing to start running.
But to her surprise, her arms were already being held by the person next to her, Xue Lan's arms were like iron hoops holding her arms.
Xue Lan: "Where are you going?"
The girl in the orange dress was so angry she wanted to bite her lip.
"I'll go buy you a coffin in advance, you fucking let me go!"
But Xue Lan didn't!
The person before her was someone she feared even more than the demon high priest in the sword domain behind her.
Facing Qingyin alone is less desirable than sending her to blow up the Nine Heavens Demon Realm right now.
The woman grabbed Xue Tong's arm for support as she stood up, her voice hoarse and weak: "Grandmaster...cough cough..."
Xue Tong: "Are you pretending to be pitiful? Tell me, are you pretending to be pitiful?!"
Xue Lan did not answer. The woman, dressed in tattered black clothes, stood in front of the two grandmasters without saying a word, only slightly lowering her head.
Master Xuanji glanced at the person beside him and mustered his courage to speak: "Senior Sister..."
"If she dies here, are you planning to personally send her off to her burial, Junior Brother?"
The voice of Daoist Qingyin contained a chilling smile, and Master Xuanji's expression froze, not daring to utter another word.
Daoist Qingyin glanced at Xue Lan, then looked at the Moonlit Sword Domain not far away.
The Moonlit Sword Domain had begun to crack, and crimson light shone through the cracks. Daoist Qingyin flicked his sleeve, and two slender silver threads flew to Xue Lan's side, transforming into a silver-white halo beneath their feet.
"Stay here and don't wander off," Master Xuanji said as he passed by.
Xue Lan nodded frantically and obediently sat inside the circle of light.
The man in the blue robe sighed and gently patted the girl's injured shoulder.
A pale blue light fell upon Xue Lan's horrifying wound.
Xue Tong saw wisps of dark demonic energy flying out from the wound.
“Your child is lacking in the element of poison…” Master Xuanji said helplessly.
"You're covered in poison the moment you step outside."
Xue Lan opened her mouth, then fell into a long silence.
Even as Master Xuanji stood before the shattered Moonlit Sword Domain, Xue Lan remained silent.
Xue Tong tugged at Xue Lan's sleeve.
"What place is this Jin Yue Lake that you mentioned when you were acting crazy? Is your inner demons acting up again?" The girl's voice was filled with deep worry.
She had only seen Xue Lan in that state once before, at Luoxia Mountain.
Before Xue Lan could speak, another voice interrupted her.
"I didn't expect you to see me this way?"
The inner demon retrieved its head and reattached it within its sea of consciousness. The first thing it heard after regaining its five senses was Xue Tong's suspicion.
The woman stood above the blood lake in Xue Lan's sea of consciousness, her sleeves tucked behind her back, her eyes gleaming with eager anticipation.
"Jinyue Lake, that's..."
Before the woman could finish speaking, a piece of ice blade flew from a short distance and severed her head once more.
This time, her head flew directly over the pavilion in front of her and landed in the lake.
Xue Tong heard the inner demon's voice abruptly stop, and felt a little confused. The girl looked at the person beside her with a bewildered expression: "What's wrong with her?"
Xue Lan smiled and said, "I don't know. It's just that strange temper of hers. She probably doesn't want to continue speaking halfway through her sentence."
The woman's tone was indifferent, and Xue Tong knew that she was probably just making excuses for her, but she was already a mature system.
The girl waved her hand, and the light screen reappeared in front of the two of them.
"Are you not sleepy now? Do you still want to watch?"
Xue Lan nodded and said, "Let's continue."
With both of her grandmasters present, she could finally relax.
While healing herself, the woman used her divine sense to monitor Long Siyin's situation.
By this time, the sky was already bright, and thousands of golden rays shone on the land that was ravaged by the battle.
Xu Qizhou withdrew the Frostless Sword Domain.
Xue Lan saw a twisted smile on Ji Yan's battered face. The young man was at his last gasp. He looked at Long Siyin and spoke:
"They're nothing but ants from the lower realm!"
"Xue Lan is destined to die here."
Long Siyin didn't take the first sentence to heart at all, but the second sentence struck them both deeply.
Xu Qizhou looked at Long Siyin and found that the woman was also looking at him.
The two looked at each other and nodded slightly, both understanding each other's meaning.
Quick fight.
A woman in light white armor stood in mid-air, the Duying Sword, trailing a fiery tail, drew a circle in the air before finally landing in her hand.
"Didn't you want to know why my swordplay contains the might of a dragon?"
Looking at the carefree smile on Long Siyin's face, Xue Tong asked Xue Lan with some curiosity.
"Why? Is it because you saw the remains of a real dragon in the Wan Gong Fang?"
Xue Lan slowly shook her head: "The Emperor Dragon Sword Technique originated from the Long Sword Sect's sword lineage."
"The Longsword Sect's sword lineage is said to have originated from the time when the sect was founded, when an elder who had already ascended to the upper realm killed a demon dragon that colluded with the demon race and pinned her meridians."
The great sword that is deeply embedded in the mountain on the other side of Luoxia Mountain is where the seal is located.
Xue Tong opened her mouth wide, and the girl whispered:
"Isn't it detrimental for humans and demons to fight each other...?"
"What's wrong with that?" Xue Lan smiled dismissively.
"Ever since the human and demon races joined forces to protect the Yuanming Realm ten thousand years ago, any human or demon who colludes with the demon race within the Yuanming Realm has only faced death."
"This is the ultimate truth, and for ten thousand years, no one has been able to refute it!"
The instant Xue Lan finished speaking, Xue Tong saw Long Siyin's left hand form a sword finger, drawing the Du Ying Sword.
A sharp golden light instantly enveloped the Duying Sword. Long Siyin smiled gently:
"Did I say I would give your magic core away as a gift?"
Xue Tong's eyes sparkled: "She's so handsome! She's so handsome! I like her!"
Xue Lan said helplessly, "You said the same thing when you saw Sister Min Shang last time."
Xue Tong waved her hand dismissively: "It's okay, I can like a lot of them."
Xue Lan smiled calmly. In her consciousness, the thread of fate connecting Long Siyin and Ji Yan was slowly disintegrating.
It's like being corroded, decayed...
It was ruthlessly severed by those who were fearless and unwilling to accept their fate.
The golden sword light magnified in his eyes, like a fiery star falling from the sky. Ji Yan had no time to think, no time to react.
"Slay the Saint!"
The woman's voice was so deeply ingrained in his mind that he couldn't shake it off.
It's like a destined calamity in this life, one that cannot be avoided.
Xue Tong looked at the screen filled with golden light.
"The final move of the Emperor Dragon Sword Technique is actually called Saint Slayer?" the girl murmured.
"Sweeping away all injustices in the world, with a pure and loyal heart, we can bring peace to the world."
"To vanquish the demons for the sake of the world, and to slay the saints for the sake of the weak."
Xue Lan smiled faintly: "This is Long Siyin's Dao, and also the Longsword Sect's... Dao of the Sword to uphold justice and protect the world!"
