Chapter 26: Is Bai Lian the Reincarnation of the Star Lord?! (2)

Bai Lian stopped her ancestor, but she still had to deal with the sand soldiers under his control.

Fortunately, Bai Lian had also limited her ancestor’s power. The sand soldiers would rush forward briefly before stopping, as if someone had pressed a pause button.

That was their opportunity to fight back! No matter how strong the sand soldiers were, they weren’t frightening at all when immobilized.

Wen Su stepped forward, raised his right fist and shouted: “The spirit of Nanwang Country will never die – it will be passed down through fire!”

He charged at the sand soldiers alone. Though he had no power of his own, he could borrow the Spirit Tool’s power, even if it would tear his body apart. Although the land beneath his feet was broken, it had nurtured him. The people behind him were those he wanted to protect.

“That figure…”

On the other side, the Nanwang general, who was organizing his subordinates to fight the sand soldiers on the city wall, suddenly stopped. His eyes fixed on Wen Su’s back. That man looked strangely familiar.

“Is it an illusion?”

“General, those sand soldiers are moving again,” a soldier with bloodied hands reported.

Never mind, I must be getting too emotional, thought the general.

He raised his long sword and shouted, “Brothers, don’t let those sand soldiers enter the city!”

“Kill!”

The battle in the sky was even fiercer, though far less bloody than the one on the ground. This was mainly because Bai Lian’s body was too “hard”!

Boom—

After another parry from the Dirt Free Sword, the emperor promptly distanced himself from Bai Lian and frowned.

The emperor had struck Bai Lian over 80 times and even rolled his chariot over her face three times. Yet Bai Lian remained uninjured, with merely several small tears in her clothing.

“You’re worthy of being Master Star Lord!” the emperor exclaimed.

Don’t call me that! Bai Lian was annoyed.

But a faint smile remained on her face. She knew well that no matter what difficulties you encounter, you should not show fear. If you face adversity with a smile, you will conquer it!

Yet her smile was just a facade hiding her difficulties. Bai Lian’s hands were already numb; she would die if the fight continued this way.

She decided to call her “parents” for help! It wasn’t her fault. She was only 19 years old. She had already done her best fighting a 3,000-year-old monster for so long.

Bai Lian used a trace of spirit Qi to activate the jade slip. At that moment, her heart suddenly slowed by half a beat.

Wait, why can’t I send any message out?

“…”

It’s over.

No wonder the task reward was so high – the system knew she couldn’t get help from the outside! If she could successfully call An Lan or Yan Yue for help, the task reward would change from Soft Skill +10 to Soft Skill +2.

Bai Lian was panicking, but the smile on her face only grew more brilliant.

[Task 1: “You damn emperor, I will behead you today!” After shouting, fight with the emperor. (Reward: A best-grade Spirit Tool – Thoughtless Nail)]

[Task 2: Turn around and run away. (Reward: Red Rainbow Fairy Iron)]

[Task 3: “Since I am here, Nanwang will not be destroyed today!” (Reward: Hard Skill +8)]

Choose Task 3.

Bai Lian stepped forward and said firmly, “I am not the reincarnation of any Star Lord, but today…”

A strong wind seemed to blow as the emperor stood stunned, automatically ignoring the first half of her sentence.

As the former emperor of Nanwang Country, he wanted to destroy his own nation, while Bai Lian, who had no connection to Nanwang Country, fought so hard to protect it.

What spirit she had!

The emperor felt his heart deeply cut by Bai Lian’s resolute eyes. A tearing pain.

Though his will was as faint as a flame, he tried to fight against the evil idea with his remaining strength. The black tide began to bite back at him, and his body shook violently.

Ling Yue, who had been cowering in the encirclement, was also moved. Seeing Bai Lian take the upper hand, she felt relieved. When Bai Lian retreated, her heart raced. When Bai Lian fell into difficulty, her heart ached.

But after hearing Bai Lian’s words, she suddenly let go. She didn’t understand. It should have been her responsibility to protect Nanwang Country, so why was Bai Lian standing there?

Was it for her? Or for the people below?

Ling Yue was confused, feeling only endless emptiness. If she couldn’t do anything, what was she for?

Bai Lian resumed fighting the emperor, but everyone’s mood had already changed.

“Waste, this waste!”

Under the altar, Tao Huai kicked the stone tablet beside him impatiently. He’d had enough!

The emperor was still trying to resist the evil idea. This emperor was truly unreliable.

If this continued, the emperor would die. Obviously, it would happen soon.

All because of Bai Lian.

At that moment, Tao Huai only wanted to destroy Bai Lian’s cultivation base and throw her into a brothel.

“We can’t just wait to die!” he said viciously to the evil idea standing beside him. “Let’s go help—”

But before he finished speaking, the evil idea shook her head.

“No.”

Fuck you! Bai Lian was the reincarnation of a Star Lord, and she was just an evil idea without a body. If Bai Lian set her eyes on her, even escape wouldn’t be an option.

The evil idea said, “Go ahead. I will take Ling Yue back when the opportunity arises. Once the ceremony is completed, ten Bai Lians together will not be our opponent.”

“…”

Fuck you! Why don’t you go?

Tao Huai also didn’t want to face Bai Lian. He only felt that the future was bleak.

What should he do?

This time, the evil idea suddenly had a wonderful plan. Since both the front and back were impassable, why not take the side?

The evil idea smiled grimly. “Bai Lian attaches great importance to her younger Martial Sister.”

Tao Huai nodded. “So… oh, I see!”

They shared a knowing look and grin.

The evil idea got up and said, “Let me go.”

She feared Bai Lian, but Su Youwei was of no concern at all!

She remembered that Bai Lian’s Martial Sister was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

What a joke – that was too weak! No different from an eight-year-old child!

“Good.” Tao Huai immediately agreed.

It was more appropriate to let the evil idea handle such things. Not that the evil idea was more powerful than him, just that she knew how to manipulate people’s hearts.

He could capture Su Youwei, but the evil idea could turn her into their puppet.

Seeing Su Youwei suddenly being controlled, Bai Lian would certainly panic!

A moment’s panic would be enough to decide the outcome.

The evil idea left the altar. She was an evil idea from the fragment of the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl. The reason she had worked with Tao Huai for so long was to get a perfect body.

Ten years – she had waited for this day for more than ten years!

She wouldn’t let Bai Lian ruin her plan!

A moment later, in an alley in Nanwang City, the evil idea found Su Youwei, who was covering the retreat of a group of young children.

“I will control you to do all kinds of things in front of Bai Lian!”

Whoosh.

The evil idea rushed toward Su Youwei like a gust of wind.
