Chapter 102

Lin Du threw away the net scarf, the fire wind became even stronger, the broken hair on her forehead and behind her head was blown to one side, and it was a bit curled, under the firelight, she became the messy yellow-haired, messy kid she was back then.

She smiled helplessly, stuffed two pills into her mouth, one for restoring spirit, one for replenishing energy.

The night was still long, but dawn was not far away.

Lin Du reached out and opened the life gate, pulled out the person who was already on his last breath, and met his eyes.

She casually squatted down, “Who are you now?”

Tao Xian blinked, he looked fine, but the killing energy in his body was already churning, his disciple’s uniform was already deep ochre, the flesh beneath his skin felt like sandpaper against his flesh.

“Little… little Taoist…”

Lin Du took a deep breath, closed her eyes, “Don’t blame me, you can’t control yourself, you want to kill me, I can only kill you.”

The cause and effect here, is not considered a wrongful killing.

Tao Xian smiled bitterly, he knew, Lin Du loved to joke, but many times, she wasn’t joking.

Just like the way Lin Du interrogated Shao Fei, it was exactly the same as when she interrogated him in the hall during the day.

He was an ordinary person, his spiritual root was considered good, although not as good as those defying heaven and earth in Wushang Sect, he could still be a direct disciple in a large sect.

Many times, he felt that he was clearly just cultivating in seclusion, when he opened his eyes, something was wrong in his body, like… he had just gone out, and there were mud prints on the soles of his shoes that didn’t belong to the places he had been.

He thought he had some kind of illness, like wandering soul syndrome, or maybe even amnesia, Feixing Sect’s resource allocation all depended on his own efforts, he didn’t dare to let people see the clues, so he was even more nervous in front of his master, he worked even harder, for fear that one day he would be discovered.

But that was mostly when he was in seclusion, but he didn’t expect that when he came here today, he would also have that kind of illness.

He tried hard to open his mouth, a bit of sweetness rolled down his throat, he lay on the ground, turned his head, after a while, he spoke again, “Actually, what the village woman said today, I didn’t have no doubts.”

“But I can’t remember, and I don’t dare to think.”

“How absurd, how could I… be involved with such a thing, such a terrible thing…”

He had been an honest man all his life, he only wanted to live a little better within his means, find a Taoist companion, live a peaceful life, until the day he died.

He never thought about ascension, or becoming a great power.

He just wanted to live well, but why did this happen?

Lin Du looked down at him, and said softly, “You’ve had your memory erased, and you’ve been implanted with a soul-splitting imprint.”

“So it’s not that I’m sick, then I’m relieved…” He coughed lightly, he didn’t have much strength left, it was like he coughed out a breath of life, then his internal organs ached from the shock.

“It’s not you.” Lin Du lowered her eyes, “But the karma is on you.”

Tao Xian’s pupils dilated slightly, “Which bastard harmed me!”

He thought about who could cast such a curse on him, he was probably someone he couldn’t beat, he had been a coward all his life, and in the end, he couldn’t even personally eliminate the culprit, he sighed again.

“I just wanted to save up some money, find a Taoist companion, and live a good life, little Taoist, why is it so difficult… to live a peaceful life?”

Lin Du’s eyelashes fluttered, after a long time, she said, “I’m sorry, I can’t… let you remember what happened before.”

Tao Xian’s soul was already damaged, even if Yan Ye was here, he wouldn’t be able to make him remember what happened before.

“You have two choices now, I’ll personally send you to the underworld.”

Lin Du paused, “My master cultivates the Dao of Life, I can always find your reincarnation, and then give you an opportunity.”

“Second, after I kill the main soul, the main soul is destroyed, if there is no other entanglement, the soul-splitting imprint will lose control, you can slowly dissolve the split soul after you recover.”

Tao Xian now had no more careful and flattering honesty, he said whatever came to his mind, he smiled, “Now I’ve seen a real living Yama.”

The meaning of Lin Du’s words was very simple, whether to live or die was up to him, she was going to kill them all.

Tao Xian suddenly understood a little, “Little Taoist, you let me see with my own eyes the death of the person behind this, then, please send me on my way.”

“Feixing Sect probably won’t support a useless person like me, little Taoist, how many years have you been in the Dao? Before I met you, I thought I was a good seedling, but when I really met you, I realized how big the difference is between ordinary talent and genius.”

Tao Xian finished a long string of words with effort, “Can you talk to them when you communicate with the underworld, and let me be reborn into a good womb like yours in my next life?”

“A good womb isn’t necessarily a good womb,” Lin Du paused, “But it will indeed have something in common with me.”

A glimmer of hope flashed in Tao Xian’s eyes, “What is it?”

“People with damaged souls will have congenital deficiencies.” Lin Du said.

Tao Xian: … He shouldn’t have asked that question.

“Then you wait.” Lin Du found a Returning Yuan Pill, temporarily keeping Tao Xian alive, leaning the person who had already lost control of his whole body against the door, she also used spiritual power to help him cross his legs, it looked like he was injured and meditating to adjust his breath.

Lin Du left, Tao Xian just pretended to adjust his breath at the door, in fact, only the pills were forcibly replenishing his vitality.

A tall figure appeared in front of him, “Are you okay?”

Tao Xian subconsciously replied, “Just a minor fatal wound…”

When a person is about to die, they have to put on a show.

Mo Lin held his sword stick, lowered his head and looked at him, “Fatal wound? Who did it?”

Tao Xian thought to himself, who else could it be, but he didn’t speak.

He knew it wasn’t Lin Du’s fault, one of them had to die tonight.

Mo Lin heard the sound of fighting at the entrance of the village, and he walked out with his sword stick.

“Hey, no, Taoist Mo Lin, can’t you use spiritual power?”

Mo Lin didn’t turn back, his steps were steady, before Lin Du left, she left a defensive formation disk for him, telling him not to come out.

But the sound transmission talisman he sent out didn’t get a reply, the little junior sister didn’t have much power to protect herself, although Xia Tianwu’s cultivation technique was fierce, it wasn’t a killing move, what if she encountered a dedicated villain and was exhausted after being consumed?

No one in the village dared to come out, they wished they could lock all the doors and windows, fearing that they would be affected.

“No! Don’t…”

Tao Xian couldn’t stop him, he turned his head and cursed in his heart, what kind of gods are they in Wushang Sect.

A person who has been poisoned by a Gu can still hold a sword and go to his death without hesitation.

Xia Tianwu looked at the dozen or so white figures in front of her, her expression was still cold, only the firelight reflected in her cold eyes, showing a fierce and resolute nature.

Before Lin Du left, she used her divine sense to transmit a message to her.

“The formation is broken, the people in white robes will definitely come, Second nephew, there is only one way out here, if you can defend, defend, if you can’t, take Mo Lin away.”

Xia Tianwu knew what Lin Du was going to do, she couldn’t break the formation, but the little junior sister asked her to guard the village, and she could do it.

“Are you the one who broke the formation of this village?”

Xia Tianwu didn’t care what he said, she raised her hand to continue fighting.

A lazy voice cut in, “Don’t wrong a good person, we’re just passersby.”

Xia Tianwu turned her head in surprise, Lin Du’s blue clothes became a dull black under the firelight, her broken hair was scattered on her face, and there was a faint smile on her lips.

“What formation are you talking about? A village, what kind of formation could it have?”

Lin Du pretended to be stupid, but the people in white robes didn’t believe her, “Don’t talk nonsense, the formation is broken, everyone in the village must die today!”
