Chapter 30: I am really cruel

Su Xianxian was the first to stand in front of the phantom: “Who are you, get out of my senior sister’s body!”

Mu Qingfeng followed closely behind Su Xianxian, undoubtedly showing his stance.

As for the disciples below, seeing the situation just now, they also leaned towards the newcomer.

“Father! Do you believe me?” The phantom pouted and acted cute towards Lin Buwei.

On the other side, Lin Xiner just looked at Lin Buwei, not saying anything. The bond between father and daughter couldn’t be determined by just a few words.

On the platform, an elder flew to their side: “This is simple, a Heavenly Oath.”

Lin Xiner was the first to say: “Heaven as witness, I am the real one.”

Heaven did not respond, and everyone turned their gaze to the phantom, their faces filled with murderous intent.

The phantom also swore: “Heaven as witness, this body has already been replaced by another soul!”

“I am Lin Xiner! Why don’t you believe me!” The second sentence was not a swear.

Heaven still did not respond, acknowledging the phantom’s words.

How could this be? Why didn’t the Heavenly Oath work? It couldn’t be that both of them were real, could it?

Even Lin Xiner herself was surprised. Could it be that the phantom in front of her was her soul from her youth? Did her soul from her later life transmigrate into this body and squeeze out her original soul?

The elder stepped forward and said: “I ask you, who am I?”

The phantom rolled her eyes: “Seventh Elder, you should just sit back down.”

Lin Xiner also glanced over without paying any attention.

“Then then then, this is the real one.” The Seventh Elder pointed at the phantom.

Lin Buwei stepped forward and drove away the Seventh Elder, carefully examining the two Lin Xiners, and asked:

“What is your birthday?”

“Mid-Autumn Festival.” The two answered at the same time.

“When I went down the mountain for training, I gave you a pouch, what was inside?”

“A strand of soul.” The two answered again.

The elder who had been driven away couldn’t stand it anymore: “You ask some things that only you two know!”

Lin Buwei thought for a moment and said: “What was the last thing your mother said to you before she died?”

“May my child be safe and sound…” The phantom answered.

“Live a life without worries.” Lin Xiner added.

“Why is my left leg injured?”

“When I was ten years old, Qingfeng and I went into the forbidden area, and Father injured his left leg saving us.”

Lin Buwei looked at Lin Xiner, but Lin Xiner was stunned and just nodded.

“What was I doing on your birthday last year?”

The phantom answered again: “Father got injured that day getting the Crimson Flame Stone for me, he was healing.”

Lin Xiner continued to nod. She remembered the Crimson Flame Stone, but she didn’t know that Lin Buwei was injured that day. At that time, she seemed to be clinging to Mu Qingfeng, celebrating his birthday for him.

Lin Buwei looked at Lin Xiner: “What is my birthday?”

Then he said to the phantom behind him: “Shut up.”

“Father, you’re so mean!” The phantom muttered.

Lin Xiner heard this, but she didn’t answer. She only remembered that her father never celebrated his birthday.

“I ask you again, before you went down the mountain for training, what did I tell you?”

Lin Xiner was speechless. At that time, she was busy saying goodbye to Mu Qingfeng and Su Xianxian, and she didn’t pay attention to what Lin Buwei said.

“Every year, I go to pay respects to your mother on a certain day, what day is it?”

Lin Xiner remained silent. In her previous life, her mind was always on Mu Qingfeng, and she never paid attention to these trivial matters.

Lin Buwei turned to the phantom: “You tell me.”

The phantom said: “Father’s birthday is on the first day of April…

“Three, but ever since Mother passed away, Father hasn’t celebrated his birthday anymore.”

“Before I went down the mountain, Father repeatedly told me that I should drink the wine produced in Pingcheng.”

“Father lies every year on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, claiming to be in closed cultivation, but he goes to pay respects to Mother. Because that day is the day you and Mother fell in love.”

Lin Buwei looked at Lin Xiner and wanted her to explain: “Do you have anything else to say?”

Lin Xiner felt a surge of guilt and grievance. Guilt that in her previous life, her mind was always on Mu Qingfeng and she never paid attention to Lin Buwei, yet Lin Buwei died for her. Grievance that her father didn’t believe her.

“I am the real one, I have nothing to say.”

Lin Buwei laughed. How could he not know that the person in front of him was the real one? But he couldn’t explain why she could possess a soul at the True Martial Realm.

If today, she was the real one, the Guiyuan Holy Sect would face the targeting of all forces because of this unprecedented precedent. He was Lin Xiner’s father, but he was also the head of a sect.

Possessing a soul before reaching the Soul Realm, using mental power to attack, such a great opportunity, who wouldn’t covet it?

Sui’s eyes were cold, he only regarded the person behind him as his daughter, and he struck out with a palm: “Get out of my daughter’s body!”

The Soul Saint’s strike took away half of Lin Xiner’s life force. She stared fixedly at Lin Buwei, looking at the cold gazes around her and sneered:

“Giving me a chance to be reborn, just to let me experience betrayal and abandonment again?”

“Father, I remember now. It was a Soul King’s remnant soul that took over my body.” The phantom behind her said.

Lin Buwei’s eyes held heartache, but there was more killing intent: “I didn’t know that someone dared to possess my daughter, Lin Buwei’s daughter!”

But then, flames rose around Lin Buwei without warning. It was the unique soul skill of the Soul Saint Realm, Domain, Soul Saint Domain burns the soul. It seemed that Lin Buwei intended to burn his own daughter to death.

“Ah!” Lin Xiner screamed.

“Father, why don’t you believe me! I am Lin Xiner!”

Lin Xiner’s body wasn’t injured at all, but her soul was being burned, it was like the pain of being slowly sliced apart. Gradually, Lin Xiner’s life force became weaker and weaker.

Father and daughter are estranged, congratulations to the host for gaining 80,000 villain points.

The host has harmed the protagonist of destiny, reward 20,000 villain points.

Detected that the protagonist of destiny, Lin Xiner, has zero destiny points, please host take action to kill her.

Nanxian looked at Lin Xiner, who was half-dead below, and directly controlled the phantom behind her.

The phantom instantly rushed forward: “Dare to take over my body, die!”

Lin Xiner slightly lifted her eyelids, as if she remembered the memory hidden in her heart, and struggled to say:

“Father, Mother’s…cloud cake.”

Lin Buwei’s face was startled, his eyes filled with unprecedented panic. No, could he kill his own daughter for the sake of the sect? No!

Reacting, Lin Buwei instantly took action to stop the phantom from approaching Lin Xiner.

But even as a Soul Saint, with inner conflict and struggle, how could he stop it at the moment of life and death? He could only watch helplessly as the phantom completely pierced Lin Xiner’s body.

Buzz

Lin Buwei’s mind buzzed, and the two ‘Lin Xiners’ disappeared before him.

The person lying on the ground was no longer breathing. He had killed his daughter.

Lin Buwei didn’t know how he got to Lin Xiner’s side, he just held Lin Xiner’s cold body and stared blankly:

“Xiner, it was Father who harmed you, it was Father’s fault.”

Congratulations to the host for killing the protagonist of destiny, Lin Xiner, reward one white-level treasure chest voucher.

“Reward: one nine-grade pill, Soul Gathering Pill.”

‘I really am cruel.’

Stop pretending.

Suddenly, Nan Ganyu beside him stood up and said:

“Since your sect has matters to attend to, we will not disturb you any longer. Farewell.”

Nan Xian stood up and summoned the Snow Luan, the two of them soared into the air, but Lin Buwei suddenly launched an attack:

“You killed my daughter and still want to leave? Elders, surround Nan Xian with me!”

Immediately, the elders on the platform surrounded the two, and several figures also slipped out from the shadows.

Lin Buwei flew into the sky, his eyes filled with rage as he glared at the two on the Snow Luan:

“Nan family, first you killed thousands of our soul masters, severely wounding our Soul Saint Lou Yin, then you plotted for my daughter to die a tragic death. I, from Guiyuan Holy Sect, will not rest until we settle this with you!”

Nan Ganyu placed a hand to his ear and said, “Oh, weren’t you the first to attack the Nan family? And your daughter didn’t Sect Master Lin forget that you killed her with your own hands?”

“My little Xian kindly pointed out the abnormality in Lin Xiner’s body. You couldn’t see what kind of foolish character your daughter was, and now you blame us?”

“You’re just making excuses, follow me to kill!” Lin Buwei’s Soul Saint aura surged towards them. There were a total of three Soul Saints in the Guiyuan Holy Sect Lou Yin, who was in closed-door cultivation, and Sect Master Lin Buwei, along with another who was said to be far away in the Wujidian.

Now, surrounding the two of them, besides Lin Buwei, were mostly soul masters at the Soul Master Realm.

Nan Ganyu stroked his beard with a meaningful tone: “Lin Laodeng, are you sure you want to attack us? The cost is something you can’t afford.”

In response to Nan Ganyu was a blazing long knife, Lin Buwei’s martial soul, the Crimson Flame Knife.

Nan Ganyu remained unfazed: “So what if you’re a Soul Saint? Who isn’t?”

Then, Nan Ganyu reached out towards the sky, and a more powerful aura descended from above, accompanied by a massive cauldron.

“Martial Soul, Thousand-Jin Cauldron!”

“Soul Saint… peak! Impossible!”

Nan Xian looked at the ring on Nan Ganyu’s finger and finally understood what was wrong. Wasn’t this the ring used to disguise itself when she dug out Nan Fan’s soul bone?

It looked quite impressive.

“Lin Laodeng! Prepare to pay with your life!”
