Chapter 156: Jie jie! Soul Temple appears, Medicine Grandma in crisis! Straw Dummy army! (Part 2)

Xiao Ling'er was shocked and couldn't help but think of Xiao Huohuo's experience. She blurted out, "So, your true enemy, or your nemesis, should be me, right?"

"Oh?"

"Do you remember now?"

The man in the black robe cackled again, "It doesn't matter. Regardless, my revenge will not stop!"

Xiao Ling'er: "..."

Could it be true?!

She was even more confused.

Could it be that she was his nemesis?

Because of her, he took his anger out on the Moon Embrace Sect, and now he was targeting others related to the sect and its people.

But...

I don't know him!

I've never met him.

This completely unfamiliar aura...

She genuinely couldn't recall who this man in the black robe was or what grudge he held against her.

"You... who are you?" Xiao Ling'er couldn't help but ask.

The man in the black robe stiffened, "???!"

Then, he roared, "You all shall die!!!"

Rumble! Chains of souls emerged from his back, instantly entangling them.

"Be careful!"

Medicine Grandma exclaimed, "This is the Shadow Soul Temple's secret technique targeting divine souls. It has an extremely astonishing characteristic. Once touched, the soul will be bound, and it can even forcibly extract the soul from the body!"

"Unless your soul power is stronger than his, it's almost impossible to resist."

"It's so astonishing?"

Xiao Ling'er held her breath and immediately displayed the Immortal Fire Nine Transformations' fifth transformation, forcibly boosting her cultivation to the seventh realm and above. She fought back!

Boom! Numerous treasures shook, like shooting stars rushing towards them.

Lin Fan remained silent, but his long sword danced like a flower. The sword's movements were swift, but it was just a straw dummy, and the ninth move was its limit.

However, he could briefly assist Xiao Ling'er, blocking those soul chains.

"Damn."

"This place is Chen's territory. If I use the Great Sun Incineration Heaven, the entire Chen family will be annihilated. Otherwise, how could he be so rampant?"

Xiao Ling'er felt aggrieved.

Fortunately, she had other means, so she wouldn't be suppressed.

The man in the black robe's face kept changing.

"As expected."

"Just as rumored outside, you can indeed fight against the seventh realm, and there's a certain probability of killing them."

The man in the black robe's methods, as seen by Lin Fan and the others, were all dark and sinister.

But he was very powerful.

Clearly, he had just entered the seventh realm, but his combat power could rival ordinary fourth-stage seventh-realm cultivators. Therefore, even against Xiao Ling'er in her burst state, he wasn't at a disadvantage.

For a moment, they were evenly matched!

"This is also Heaven's Pride, or even an Extraordinary Heaven's Pride."

Lin Fan, Huo Yun'er, and the others in their hearts all knew that this person was not simple.

Lin Fan's mind began to calculate.

"I don't know how we offended the Shadow Soul Temple, but with their level of madness, it seems this matter won't be resolved peacefully."

"Even if he's just representing himself, following the 'cliches,' it won't be long before this escalates into a feud between our two forces."

"Moreover, this young man is not old, but his strength is formidable, and his talent is clearly extraordinary. He might hold a high position in the Shadow Soul Temple, and he's probably here to 'train' at the lower levels."

"So..."

"In the end, either the Shadow Soul Temple will triumph over us, or we'll triumph over them."

"There's no point in talking."

"Let's take this opportunity to kill him."

"However, if it's just him, there's no need for Gu Xinglian to specifically remind us, right? In other words, if I haven't guessed wrong, there's someone backing him."

"The Protector of the Dao?"

Lin Fan's expression changed slightly.

Right at this moment.

The black-robed man, after receiving Xiao Ling'er's Thousand Flame Piercing Void Sword, retreated dozens of meters.

"Fine, fine."

He let out a light sigh: "Forget it, forget it."

"I originally wanted to cut down all of your Moon Embrace Sect's minions, shatter all your hopes, and let everyone you care about die before your eyes, and then I'd kill you."

"But I never expected to encounter you ahead of time."

"Since it's like this..."

He seemed to sigh with emotion, and also seemed a bit melancholy, and then he sighed again: "Ai."

"Since it's like this, then... let's kill you first."

"As for the Moon Embrace Sect, rest assured, it won't be long before they all come down to 'join you,' of course, on the premise that the so-called Six Paths of Reincarnation truly exists..."

"Oh~"

"Right."

He raised a finger and revealed a strange smile: "Even if the Six Paths of Reincarnation truly exists, you won't have a chance."

"Because you're destined to have your body and soul destroyed."

"Oh~"

"I suddenly realized that before your body and soul are ready to face the consequences."

"Hahahaha..."

"Jie jie jie jie!!!!"

He muttered to himself, looking insane, and his words sent a chill down their spines.

Huo Yun'er's expression also changed.

Xiao Ling'er didn't want to waste time with him, and even less did she want him to delay. Before he could finish speaking, she had already taken action. However, for the time being, they were evenly matched, and she couldn't use her ultimate move. In a short time, it would be difficult to suppress him.

"Where did this lunatic come from?"

Lin Fan muttered to himself, and at the same time, he was extra vigilant.

For someone to speak like this, it not only proved that the person was a lunatic, but also that he had a trump card! This trump card might be his explosive strength, or it might be the Protector of the Dao that Lin Fan had guessed earlier! But no matter which it was, it was not good!

"Be careful."

Lin Fan immediately transmitted a sound to notify the others.

"Make your move!"

Right at this moment, the black-robed man let out a cold laugh and spoke sinisterly.

Boom!

Clatter!

Suddenly, countless soul chains fell from the sky, like a giant cage, trapping the three of them inside and rapidly tightening.

At first, it was like a sphere with a diameter of tens of miles.

But in the blink of an eye, it shrank, and they all felt uneasy.

"Not good!"

Medicine Grandma's expression turned ugly: "There are other Shadow Soul Temple guardians, and their strength far surpasses this person. You must not touch these soul chains, or you won't have any resistance."

"Teacher, what?!" Xiao Ling'er was terrified. She tried various methods but couldn't break these 'soul chains.' She wanted to use the Great Sun Incineration Heaven and Buddha's Wrath Lotus Flame, but there wasn't enough time.

"Leave it to me!"

Medicine Grandma shouted: "Remember."

"Before you have sufficient strength and power, never offend the Shadow Soul Temple!"

"What?"

"Teacher, why are you suddenly saying these things?"

Xiao Ling'er was stunned at this critical moment.

Then, her expression changed.

She suddenly thought of the novel 'Emperor of Flames,' where Xiao Huo Huo also encountered her greatest tribulation when she first faced a Shadow Soul Temple guardian, and even her teacher, Medicine Old Man, was taken away...

"Teacher, no!"

She was terrified and did her best to stop him.

At the same time.

Lin Fan also understood.

"So..."

"Are you 'following the plot'?"

"The old man in Xiao Huo Huo's ring was taken away, and then she embarked on a path of rapid growth."

"If that's the case, strictly speaking, even if I do nothing, Xiao Ling'er should be fine, right?"

"But..."

"But my fucking straw dummy is still here, and you're bullying my senior disciple. Isn't that too much?"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes.

A faint sound accompanied by a wisp of smoke.

Lin Fan protected Xiao Ling'er, Huo Yun'er, and the Chen family woman behind him.

As for the other Chen family members, they were not within this range.

"Stop, let me handle this."

"Senior?"

Xiao Ling'er was stunned. She was anxious and wanted to say something, but then she froze.

Not good!

There's only one Senior!

But this attack covered a full 360 degrees without any blind spots.

How could Senior protect the three of us? Xiao Ling'er realized that Lin Fan had suddenly 'split' himself.

From one, he became nine!

Like a human shield, he protected the three of them.

"Ah? Outside?"

Huo Yun'er exclaimed and looked through the gaps, seeing the situation outside.

Outside the dense soul chains, there were dozens of Lin Fan!

"When did this happen?"

In this chapter, the protagonist, Lin Fan, faces off against a mysterious black-robed elder and his companion. Lin Fan, through the use of a straw dummy technique, creates multiple copies of himself, which self-destruct in a fiery explosion, momentarily distracting the two opponents.

The black-robed elder, a Silver Guardian of the Shadow Soul Temple, uses his powerful divine sense to locate Xiao Ling'er, only to find another physical body double. The Bronze Guardian, who reveals his surprise at Xiao Ling'er's ability to deceive them twice and her possession of a strong divine soul, as well as the lingering scent of a powerful ancient soul within her.

The black-robed elder, intrigued by Xiao Ling'er's hidden secrets, declares that he will capture her and bring her back, considering it a great achievement. He also mentions that the soul within her belongs to a formidable figure who, if alive, would be someone he would avoid fighting.

"Little Li?"

The black-robed figure remained silent, and Wu Hu's expression shifted slightly.

"Protector Wu," Little Li quickly cupped his fists, "I will do as you say."

"I was just thinking, today's exposure didn't achieve our goal, and instead, we've alerted our target. It will be a thousand times more difficult to find such an opportunity again."

"Prepare yourself, and be ready to act at any time."

Protector Wu replied calmly, "Opportunities are always for those who are prepared."

"Moreover, you're being too extreme."

"If it's about revenge, you can complete more tasks and then ask the elders within the temple to take action. Destroying the Moon Embrace Sect would be as easy as turning over your palm."

"But you insist on killing with a ruthless heart, taking a risky path..."

"Naturally, it will be more challenging."

"No!" Little Li objected, "This isn't extreme; it's just the way it should be."

"It should be... like this!"

His eyes flashed with a hint of madness, "Whether it's Xiao Ling'er, the Moon Embrace Sect, or even... they all deserve their punishment!"

"I will avenge one by one, and they owe me a hundredfold!"

Protector Wu: "..."

He subtly retreated a few steps, feeling annoyed.

He didn't want to get entangled with such a crazy person. These types of individuals were already insane, and once they start their madness, they would disregard even their closest kin.

However, he had orders from above.

He could only say, "Don't let hatred cloud your eyes. You're still young, and you're the youngest protector of the Shadow Soul Temple with limitless potential."

"If hatred affects you and leads you into the abyss, it's truly unwise."

"I will never regret it!"

But Little Li, with a hint of madness, said, "If I can't take revenge and let Xiao Ling'er and the others suffer incomparable pain and die in regret, even if I become an immortal, I won't be happy."

"On the contrary, if I fall into the Nine Netherworld, sink into the Yellow Springs, and never be able to reincarnate, I would still be content!"

Protector Wu: "..."

Oh, so impressive, so high and mighty, you're crazy, I can't deal with you, I'll just hide, right?

...

Near Chen Family's residence in the Immortal Peony City, Huo Yun'er supported Xiao Ling'er, and the three of them sighed in relief.

In Immortal Peony City, an Eighth Realm expert guarded the city, and fighting was prohibited within. Even the Shadow Soul Temple wouldn't dare act recklessly here.

Until they escaped into the city, Xiao Ling'er gradually relaxed.

Medicine Grandma retracted her power and said in a deep voice, "Ling'er, from now on, you must be more careful."

"This time, I helped you escape pursuit and flee here. Although the Shadow Soul Temple's protector didn't succeed, they must have already sensed my presence."

"If we encounter them again, they will surely be prepared."

"At that time..."

"Teacher, I will be cautious!"

Xiao Ling'er secretly vowed to herself that she must work harder and not rely too much on her teacher.

At the same time, she also needed to grow faster to protect her teacher!

At that moment, she almost felt like she was about to lose Medicine Grandma.

Combining this with the plot of the "Emperor of Flames," she was almost driven mad!

Fortunately... compared to Xiao Huo Huo, she still had a good master.

Wait, master?

She quickly struggled free from Huo Yun'er's support, took out the communication talisman, and contacted Lin Fan, "Master..."

Soon, Lin Fan responded, "I understand."

"Rest assured, my main body is fine. Are you safe?"

"Master, as long as you're okay." Xiao Ling'er's heart finally settled, "We've escaped to Immortal Peony City, and the Shadow Soul Temple shouldn't dare to act recklessly here."

"Good, then you can recover, and quickly return to the Moon Embrace Sect!"

"I will also make some arrangements here."

"Be careful of that crazy person!"

"Yes, Master."

"Oh, right, remember to ask clearly about the relationship between that Chen Family's eldest daughter and our Moon Embrace Sect, and then tell me."

"..."

...

After ending the communication, Lin Fan's main body, or 'Lu Ming,' played with the communication talisman, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Shadow Soul Temple."

"A good Shadow Soul Temple."

"It seems like... once the protagonist's fate wheel starts turning, it can't be stopped?"

"Soul Temple, Shadow Soul Temple, but it seems like it's reversed, and the Shadow Soul Temple has become the 'revenge' side?"

"That's right, it's not a 'shared universe' story, just the same template, but the story can't be exactly the same."

He didn't ask if Xiao Ling'er knew who the crazy person was.

There was no need.

If Xiao Ling'er had figured it out, she would surely tell him immediately.

"I'll be more cautious from now on."

"The fate wheels of others should also be activated, and who knows when risks will emerge, but thankfully, Ya Ya and Qiu Yongqin have the Thousand Transformation Technique, so there shouldn't be any issues in the short term."

"If there's anything to be cautious about, they will surely contact me first."

"As for Gu Xinglian..."

"Xiao Ling'er is Heaven's Will Person, and she's deduced this much? Is it because her cultivation is strong enough? Or does she possess a deduction and calculation method even more powerful than the Heaven Earth Tower?"

"..."

"Forget it, thinking more is useless. Focus on the present."

Lu Ming took out a straw man and had him display the Thousand Transformation Technique, turning him into an ordinary man. He gave the straw man many more straw men and instructed, "Go back, and take these Exploding Pills with you. If you encounter any trouble, don't be careless and don't try to conserve them."

"Yes, main body."

The straw man disappeared.

...

In Immortal Peony City, Xiao Ling'er was recovering.

Huo Yun'er asked the Light Yellow Long-Skirted Chen Family's eldest daughter about the whole story.

"May I ask for your name, miss?" Huo Yun'er inquired softly.

"What does this have to do with our Moon Embrace Sect?"
