I'm in the world of Xianjian

Chapter 158 Dream Taoist (Part 2)

Taoist Meng'e concentrated his spiritual energy, injecting several strands of black energy into his body. His veins bulged, and his withered body became robust. Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er also became much more violent.

At this time, Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er shouted angrily, "Why~Why~!"

Lin Shen said, "What's going on? Is he going berserk?!"

Li Xiaoyao threw a punch at Lin Shen. Lin Shen infused his hands with Armament Haki, waited for them to turn black, and then raised his arms to take the punch.

Although the punch did not cause any damage to Lin Shen's arms, the strong wind from the punch still forced him to retreat more than ten steps before stopping.

At this time, Jiang Wan'er also punched Lin Shen, but this time Lin Shen did not take it head-on. He quickly dodged to the side. Jiang Wan'er's punch hit the ground, creating a big hole.

At this time, Li Xiaoyao kicked Lin Shen's arm again. Lin Shen injected the armed color into his feet. After his feet turned black, he took Li Xiaoyao's attack head-on. With a "bang", the two people's legs collided with each other.

At the moment when the two paused, Lin Shen jumped up and kicked Li Xiaoyao away.

At this time, on the other side, Taoist Meng'e had also finished accumulating strength. He cast a spell with both hands and spewed fire from his mouth.

Zhao Linger and the other two quickly dodged. Anu glanced at Lin Shen and Li Xiaoyao and said, "Sister Linger, Sister Yueru, we have to hurry. I don't know how much longer Brother Anos can hold on."

Lingyue and the other nodded. Zhao Linger gathered spiritual power in her hands and blew a gust of cold wind towards the Taoist.

The strong wind made the Taoist unable to hold on and his feet began to freeze.

Lin Yueru drew her sword and concentrated her true energy to release a stream of sword energy. The Taoist held the sword energy with both hands, and Anu took the opportunity to fire several lightning bolts at the Taoist, which struck him and made him scream miserably.

On Lin Shen's side, Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er continued to beat him with fists and feet.

Lin Shen kicked Jiang Wan'er away. Li Xiaoyao's eyes turned red as he shouted, "Why, why is this happening? Why did you show up, Ling'er... Yueru...!"

Lin Shen understood something and shouted, "Because you are an idiot who is not worthy of trust!"

Li Xiaoyao shouted, "What did you say!"

Anu shouted, "Brother Anos, stop provoking Brother Li."

Lin Shen said, "Isn't it! When you were in Yuhang Town, the Ding sisters were so kind to you and remembered you for everything, but what about you?

If you don’t like it, then you don’t like it, but when they are nice to you, you accept it.

In Suzhou, you attacked Ling'er without understanding the situation. If I hadn't been there, Ling'er would have been killed by you with a single blow of your sword!

Black energy emerged from Li Xiaoyao's body, and he shouted, "Stop talking, don't talk anymore!"

Lin Shen said, "I'm just saying that in the Hidden Dragon Cave, the two monsters have agreed to surrender, but you still have to kill them. If General Sang hadn't appeared in time, their daughter would have lost both her parents.

Also, during your first battle against General Sang, Ling'er and the others knew how to make a post-battle summary, but you were the only one who was listless;

At the Guiyin Mountain altar, you rashly released the Phantom Scroll. If it weren't for Anu reporting you, the four of you would have been wiped out right then and there.

I really regret everything that happened. I wanted to bring you together with Ling'er and Yueru. If I had known this would happen, I would have intercepted it in advance and not given you the chance.

Li Xiaoyao held his head and shouted, "Stop talking, stop talking!"

Lin Shen said, "Let me tell you, Li Xiaoyao! Do you know why Lord Lin and the Witch Queen were willing to entrust Ling'er and Yueru to me instead of you?

Because they know I can take good care of them, that I would lay down my life for them, and give them the best life I can.

But can you do it? Besides dreaming that unrealistic dream of being a hero, what else can you do?

Li Xiaoyao covered his head and screamed. More and more black energy oozed out of his body.

Lin Shen saw that the time was right, and immediately kicked Li Xiaoyao away. Li Xiaoyao hit the wall and fainted.

After hearing what Lin Shen said, Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru and Anu fell into deep thought.

Taoist Meng'e said, "With a powerful enemy at hand, you still have the mind to wander!"

Taoist Meng'e immediately gathered his spiritual power and shot a black light wave at the three people.

Lin Shen quickly formed a shield in front of the three of them with his fingers. The black light wave hit the shield, but the three girls behind it were not harmed.

At this time, Jiang Wan'er launched a sneak attack, punching Lin Shen in the cheek and knocking him away.

Lin Shen did a backflip in the air and landed smoothly. He rubbed the spot where he was hit with his hand and muttered quietly, "Oh no, I forgot there was another one."

Jiang Wan'er yelled, "Why! Why~! Why is my benefactor so indifferent to me? Why!?"

Lin Shen and the three girls were stunned when they heard this. After all this fuss, Jiang Wan'er felt that Lin Shen didn't care about her enough.

Lin Shen thought: That's right, she has lived in the Demon Locking Tower for eighteen years and has only one undead father. So she cares deeply about even the slightest kindness from outsiders.

I was only thinking about Ling'er, Yueru and Anu, and really didn't care much about her.

Lin Shen exhaled and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Jiang, I saved you at that time only out of chivalry, and I really don't have any feelings for you.

And in my heart, there are only Ling'er, Yueru and Anu, there is no room for a fourth person."

After hearing this, Jiang Wan'er took a few steps back, then began to scream "Ah~~~", and the black air in her body began to seep out.

At this moment, Lin Shen looked at Jiang Wan'er, not with the fighting spirit from before, but with a sense of guilt. He continued, "Miss Jiang, I'm sorry. Regarding your matter, I can only say that you and I have the fate to meet in this life but not to be together.

I can only use the three words "I'm sorry" to express my attitude towards you. I shouldn't have dragged you along and should have told you earlier. I hope you can forgive me.

I was rather cold towards you before because I only regarded you as a comrade-in-arms and didn't consider developing the relationship further. I didn't want you to focus your energy on me.

sorry. "

Jiang Wan'er covered her head and screamed incessantly, while black energy continued to seep out of her body. After a while, Jiang Wan'er fainted from exhaustion.

At this time, Taoist Meng'e also screamed, and his body slowly returned to its previous dry state.

Taoist Meng'e looked at his body and said, "It's all your fault. I already had two very good puppets and a negative energy source. You messed it up."

Lin Shen summoned the Devil Blade of Destruction, pointed it at Taoist Meng'e, and said, "Today... I will destroy you, the scourge, on behalf of Xiaoyao and Miss Jiang."

After saying that, Lin Shen teleported to the Taoist priest and knocked him away with a punch.

Before the Taoist landed, Lin Shen teleported above him and raised the World-Destroying Demon Blade, saying, "In your next life... be a good person!"

The Taoist begged for mercy repeatedly, "No, no, no... spare my life!"

Lin Shen slashed down with his sword, splitting the Taoist in half. After Lin Shen landed, he fired two fireballs at the Taoist's body, burning the corpse to ashes.

Zhao Linger looked at Lin Shen and said, "Brother Anos, are you okay? Are you seriously injured?"

Lin Shen shook his head and said, "Ling'er, don't worry. I'm fine."

Lin Shen looked at Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er lying on the ground and said, "I didn't expect that I would become a heartless person. Although I hate such people the most."

Lin Yueru said, "Anos, this is not your fault. You and Miss Jiang are not destined to be together. Relax."

Actually, it’s a good thing this way, so she can realize the situation sooner rather than getting stuck in it further.”

Lin Shen held Lin Yueru's hand and said gently, "Thank you, Yueru."

After saying that, Lin Shen snapped his fingers, and a magic circle appeared above Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er, and countless green particles fell on them.

After a while, the magic circle disappeared and the two woke up. When they walked over, they saw that Lin Shen was silent.

After a while, Jiang Wan'er spoke first, saying, "Mm...Mr. Benefactor, I'm sorry, I hurt you."

Lin Shen shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. You are controlled by the demon. This is not your intention. But Miss Jiang, I..."

Jiang Wan'er raised her hand and said, "My benefactor, I know what you want to say. You don't have to say it. I know there is no place for me in your heart. In fact, it's better to talk it out like this.

You consider me a comrade, and I consider you my guide. But I won't be tempted by your romantic interests anymore. So, can I still call you "benefactor"?

Lin Shen hummed, then said, "I'm used to hearing this."

Jiang Wan'er laughed and said, "Okay, benefactor."

Li Xiaoyao looked at Lin Shen without saying anything, and Lin Shen said, "Xiaoyao, I..."

Li Xiaoyao raised his hand to signal him to stop talking, and then said, "You don't have to say anything. I just thought about it, and I am indeed not as good as you in many aspects.

Maybe Uncle Lin and the Witch Queen are right. You treat them better than I do.

After this is over, I will go to Mount Shu and practice Taoism there in peace."

Lin Shen said, "Your appearance reminds me of a song we have there, called 'There is a Kind of Love Called Letting Go'."

Li Xiaoyao gave a wry smile and said, "This name is quite appropriate. Let's sing a few lines."

Lin Shen looked at Li Xiaoyao with a very strange expression. Jiang Wan'er said, "I don't think I heard you sing last time in the cabin. How about singing a few lines?"

Lin Shen said, "Okay. (Clears his throat) There is a kind of love called letting go, giving up eternity for love. If our stay together requires you to give up everything, let true love take me away..."

Lin Yueru came over at this time and said, "Alright, Anos, just sing a few lines. You don't want to ruin your voice like last time."

So Lin Shen stopped, and the six people continued to walk to the next floor.
