Hammer in her left hand, sword in her right, the eldest sister is connected to both worlds.

Chapter 349 Is the Heavenly Dao suppressing itself too much?

The night was dark and the cold rain was drizzling.

Yan Chengxue looked at Xue Lan, who was confronting Lin Shuang, and smiled helplessly.

You shouldn't swear at someone if you take their things.

The young man turned to Lin Su, gesturing for him to continue with his work, his voice brimming with helplessness.

"I gave you that jade pendant so that the array's core wouldn't be discovered. Now that you've displayed it like this, what's the point of what I did?"

"People aren't surprised anymore!"

Xue Lan chuckled, and was about to speak when she heard Wu Yijun's voice:

"Ignore him, he's just trying to blackmail you."

Xue Lan already knew the answer, but she pretended not to understand and looked at Wu Yijun: "Then why did you help me?"

Wu Yijun was very honest: "Because I also want to blackmail you, and there's only one spot available for blackmail."

Before Xue Lan could speak, Xue Tong's somewhat noisy laughter rang out again.

Xue Lan raised her hand, and a streak of earth-yellow sword light shot out from her Soul-Guiding Slash towards Lin Shuang opposite her.

Wu Yijun's smile vanished instantly, and the woman resumed manipulating the two puppets to fight the giant snake formed from demonic energy. She silently pondered as she looked at the stern-faced Xue Lan.

Wu Yijun: Is she really angry?

Lin Shuang disliked the sword energy that Xue Lan unleashed. The seemingly harmless, earthy-yellow sword energy contained an aura that she found extremely repulsive. If her demonic energy touched it, it would dissipate like it had been touched by a raging fire, eventually turning into ashes.

When Xue Lan's face turned cold, Xue Tong stopped smiling.

While the girl was hitting Luo Shengzi in Lin Shuang's direction, she quietly asked Xue Lan:

"Xue Lan, are you crying again?"

Xue Lan paused slightly, her voice laced with gritted teeth:

"I've only cried a few times, can you please stop bringing this up?"

Xue Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the girl's tone was tinged with doubt: "Then why didn't you say anything just now?"

Xue Lan said nonchalantly, "I was thinking that since they both treat me like family, it wouldn't be a problem if I went to the War Puppet Mansion's spirit mine again, right?"

Now it was Xue Tong's turn to be speechless.

The girl spoke listlessly: "Xue Lan, sometimes I actually think you people are quite amazing."

"They seem to have a relationship, but not a very close one."

Xue Lan raised her hand and unleashed another earth-yellow sword light at Lin Shuang.

The woman smiled and asked Xue Tong, "So what kind of person do you think a best friend is?"

Xue Tong pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke:

"Trust each other, care for each other, and keep nothing from each other. No matter how many dangers we face, we will walk together with our swords."

Xue Lan gently asked Xue Tong, "Don't we trust each other enough?"

Upon hearing the woman's words, Xue Tong was momentarily speechless.

How could they not trust each other? With Xue Lan's financial and power support, Yan Chengxue and the others had already gained an overflowing level of trust.

When Xue Tong fell silent, Xue Lan smiled and asked again, "Don't we care about each other enough?"

Xue Tong remained silent.

"Or did I hide it from them?"

When the woman spoke her third sentence, Xue Tong finally had something to argue with.

The girl's tone was tinged with schadenfreude: "Xue Lan, do you dare say you didn't?"

Xue Lan sensed Lin Shuang flying towards her from ahead, and her body once again swayed like a light cloud.

In the blink of an eye, they floated to the edge of the great formation.

The woman raised an eyebrow, her tone arrogant: "Why wouldn't I dare?"

Xue Tong: "Then you..."

The girl was interrupted by Xue Lan before she could finish her sentence.

The woman quickly replied, "That's exactly what I was thinking."

Then, the woman began to silently recite through telepathy within the great formation: "I, Xue Lan, hereby swear by the Heavenly Dao that I will never conceal anything from my dearest friend in this lifetime!"

Xue Tong understood what Xue Lan wanted: she wanted heavenly lightning.

However, even after Xue Lan finished reciting the oath, no black lightning fell from the sky.

The girl's somewhat puzzled voice reached Xue Lan's ears.

"Yan Chengxue's formation is so powerful that it can even block heavenly lightning?"

Xue Lan shook her head, even if Lian Chengxue ate Lei Kui, she still couldn't accomplish this.

"Go ask the Heavenly Dao and tell it not to suppress itself too much just to save lightning! If it doesn't like me, I can just strike it down."

Xue Tong, who was happily firing sneak attacks, put down his slingshot:

"I'm just a pitiful, hardworking person."

The girl glanced at Lu Feng beside her, a strange smile appearing in her eyes.

A few breaths later, Lu Feng looked at the spot where Xue Tong had been standing in front of him, and then at the slingshot in his hand.

The young man's face was filled with despair.

He thought he could stay here until the war was over!

The young man weighed the slingshot in his hand, gritted his teeth, took out several talismans that could conceal one's aura from his storage bag and stuck them on his body. He then placed Ling Shisan, whom Xue Tong had put on the ground, on his shoulder, pulled back the slingshot, and aimed at Lin Shuang.

Order Thirteen: Am I some kind of mascot?

Lin Shuang had attacked Xue Lan multiple times, but this person's elusive and elusive shadow was even more slippery than some of the demons in the upper realm who were skilled at escaping, and he managed to escape from her attacks every time.

What's even more infuriating is that Xue Lan not only ran, but also occasionally slashed with her sword halfway through, provoking Lin Shuang.

The overwhelming sword intent was like a mountain, blocking all of Lin Shuang's wind blades.

A fierce wind sweeps across mountains and rivers; towering cliffs are not to be trifled with.

Xue Lan held Lin Shuang at a distance, neither too close nor too far, like playing a fish while fishing.

She seemed to be wandering in random directions, but if a careful observer were to look from above the entire formation, they would notice that she was deliberately distancing herself from Wu Yijun and Yan Chengxue.

Xue Lan felt murderous intent and planned to let her inner demons make their move.

Lin Shuang really didn't want to play with Xue Lan anymore.

The woman raised her hand in mid-air, and a lotus mudra suddenly appeared in her hand. It was not the lotus that had been in full bloom before, but a small lotus bud.

Xue Lan stopped in her tracks, feigning curiosity as she looked at the lotus bud in Lin Shuang's hand.

"Is this what Fellow Daoist Lin is relying on? Is there any explanation for it?"

Xue Lan was just pretending to ask; she actually already knew what was inside the lotus bud.

That was a sword intent from a cultivator in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm.

It turns out that the powerful figure from the Lin family who colluded with the demons was actually a sword immortal.

Thinking of this, a strange smile appeared on Xue Lan's face.

Previously, they were struggling to figure out who the person behind them was, but now they have some clues.

Using a mere sword aura from the early stages of fusion to deal with oneself seems like making a mountain out of a molehill.

Isn't that a bit too rash?
