Chapter 559 Her Killing Intent Was Too Calm
Who exactly is standing in front of her?
Ji Jinjin stared in astonishment at the woman carrying a deep red giant hammer not far away, a short, sharp buzzing sound exploding in her mind in an instant.
Didn't she become the head of the Wan Gong Fang and be protected by the torch of tradition?
Why here?
He also carried... such a heavy demonic aura.
As Ji Jinjin was lost in thought, Xue Lan, who was not far from her, spoke again:
"What's wrong? Don't you recognize your senior sister?"
Ji Jinjin gripped the spear tightly in her hand. Sweat and blood mixed together, irritating the wound on her palm. The slight stinging pain stabilized her mind.
Ji Jinjin felt a chill in her heart.
It wasn't that she thought the person in front of her was Xue Lan.
Rather, it's because the imitation was too perfect.
The way he speaks always has a slightly rising tone at the end, some unconscious little movements, and the way he moves his feet when he tries to dodge.
They all disguised themselves so meticulously, so perfectly that it seemed almost fake.
The woman looked at the undeniable demonic aura emanating from the person opposite her and silently prayed that it was best if the person in front of her was an imposter.
If it really is the eldest senior sister, playing around with demonic energy wrapped around her body like this, she would be killed by Grandmaster Qingyin.
Xue Lan was unaware that her junior sister was silently lighting candles for her in her heart. When she saw Ji Jinjin standing there in the distance, she thought she had frightened the child.
Lord Wolf tapped on the inner demon in the void, his voice sounding somewhat guilty: "It can't be that bad, can it?"
The inner demon spat out a mouthful of tea he had just drunk:
Why are you always so guilty after something happens?
Do you even know what it means to go down a path to the bitter end?
Xue Lan shook her head honestly: "Aside from burning the souls of those who forge the world and killing the demon gods, I have no intention of going down the dark path."
The inner demon thought this person was shameless, so it simply started pointing at Ji Jinjin and going crazy itself:
"I think she's thinking about how to kill you efficiently and then search your soul."
Xue Lan disagreed, and the woman immediately retorted:
"Don't talk nonsense, my junior sister wouldn't... I'm going!" Before the woman could finish her sentence, a bolt of lightning carrying a blood-red killing intent struck her, grazing Xue Lan's eyes like a steel needle and leaving a scorched bloodstain on the woman's face.
The inner demon clapped its hands in schadenfreude:
"See, I told you so."
A gentle breeze blew beneath Xue Lan's feet as she looked at Ji Jinjin not far away, a bead of cold sweat trickling down her forehead.
The inner demon looked at Ji Jinjin, who was thrusting her spear forward, and spoke again: "I think your previous worries were a bit unnecessary. The child really wants to kill the demon."
Xue Lan calmed her racing heart from the attack and smiled slightly: "You don't understand. The reason she's still attacking me so decisively is because she doesn't believe I'm me at all."
Xue Lan guessed correctly. Although Ji Jinjin also suspected that the person in front of her was Xue Lan himself, she was more inclined to believe that he was a demon impersonating her.
She simply couldn't believe that the elders of the Six Sects would let the light of humanity run wild everywhere, and even dance on the desolate land disguised as a demon.
Missing her initial strike, the woman, spear in hand, moved forward a short distance, a kind and gentle smile spreading across her face as she looked at Xue Lan.
"It's been a long time, Senior Sister. You should catch up with Auntie."
The inner demon felt a pang of discomfort upon seeing Xue Lan's fake smile on the woman's face and couldn't help but speak:
"Can't you teach the kids anything good?"
Xue Lan stared intently at Ji Jinjin with her gray eyes, seemingly focused, but secretly she was diverting half her attention to fight her inner demons:
"I can teach my children however I want. Even if I teach them to use a pickaxe to kill a demon, there's a reason for it."
The inner demons fell silent.
Although Xue Lan's words were absurd and laughable, they were indeed things she was capable of doing.
The vexing voice in her mind finally subsided, and Xue Lan once again focused all her attention on Ji Jinjin.
The murderous aura emanating from the woman opposite her was no longer as imposing as it had been when it first erupted. Instead, it transformed into a thin layer of blood-red gauze clinging to her light armor, making the armor plates appear blurred, like fish scales shimmering in flowing water.
Ji Jinjin was much closer to Xue Lan than before, and at this distance, she could already feel the killing intent emanating from the person opposite her.
Xue Lan's demonic energy was all borrowed from her inner demons. Naturally, it contained a great deal of killing intent, even reaching a level that Ji Jinjin had never seen before in her life.
But the woman felt something was off.
Despite the overwhelming killing intent directed at her, she remained as calm as a fortified pass that had stood for millennia.
There was no fluctuation whatsoever.
It looked like a dead object.
This is not reasonable.
She entered the path of cultivation through killing, and understood the rage of murderous intent better than anyone else.
A person can hide their murderous intent and suppress it in their heart, or they can control their murderous intent as a weapon.
But few people can suppress their killing intent as calmly as the person in front of them.
Ji Jinjin looked at Xue Lan opposite her, and two guesses came to mind.
First, the person in front of her was at least at the late Nascent Soul stage, and could use his cultivation to conceal the fluctuations of his killing intent, making it impossible for her to detect him.
Second, the person in front of me is Xue Lan. The incomprehensible demonic aura and killing intent she exudes are all obtained through other methods.
Thinking of this, the woman smiled gently at Xue Lan, her eyes holding a strange look.
Looking into Ji Jinjin's eyes, Xue Lan felt a bad premonition.
The inner demon heard the man's somewhat uneasy voice: "I think I've done a good job of pretending, will there be any problems?"
Instead of directly answering Xue Lan's question, the inner demon spoke in a sarcastic tone:
"Who knows?"
Xue Lan wanted to curse her, but Ji Jinjin didn't give her the chance. The woman seemed to want to kill Xue Lan. The lightning wrapped around the tip of her spear was even more intense than before. Blue and white lightning relentlessly chased after Xue Lan, giving her no chance to breathe.
"She's testing me."
As Xue Lan once again swung his Heavenly Forging Hammer to deflect the oncoming spear tip, he spoke coldly.
Ji Jinjin was already starting to doubt her identity, and she wanted to find out the flaws in this person's true nature by chasing after Xue Lan.
The woman gritted her teeth!
It seems I'm destined to get shot by my own junior sister today.
The moment the thought crossed Xue Lan's mind, she immediately began to put it into practice.
As the spear tip, crackling with lightning, pierced towards the back of her neck once more, Xue Lan, quite carelessly and lacking the strength, failed to dodge.
A violent bolt of lightning swept across Xue Lan's shoulder, and Ji Jinjin heard the sound of clothes being torn open.
Countless tiny bolts of lightning surged into Xue Lan's shoulder wound the instant she was injured. The woman's expression twisted, as if she was desperately resisting the lightning entering her body.
But in the end, they were unable to resist.
Ji Jinjin saw the man spit out a mouthful of purple blood and fall from the sky like a bird with broken wings.
