Chapter 53 No one knows better than me

Tao Zi frowned, trying to ignore the pain that was about to surge up again, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Widow Li stepped forward, looking at her with an incomprehensible expression, and said, "It's common knowledge that when aliens possess human bodies, to deal with them, you have to kill them twice, and the time interval must be short."

She suddenly looked up at her.

"Are you right? Yue Qiran."

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar name, Tao Zi finally understood everything. She said with a sarcastic smile, "So the reason you insisted on killing me wasn't because I was cruel and ruthless, but because I used to be Yue Qiran."

Widow Li admitted it readily this time: "Of course, being cruel and ruthless is nothing. Old Man Wen even dared to keep a half-human like me, let alone you. Don't worry, Sister Li will accompany you to hell - I didn't plan to live after I became a demon."

She pressed her aching heart and murmured, "You killed Xu Jia out of hatred; you killed Dong Xijing and the others because you wanted to die; you killed me because you thought I was an alien. Sister Li, should I praise you for your understanding of justice?"

Sister Li ignored this and said, "Yue Qiran, if you still have even a little affection for Yisan Sect, you should leave. Yisan Sect is far from being a match for Minglan Sect."

She looked straight at her and said word by word, "I am Tao Zi, not Yue Qiran, and certainly not some alien race."

She couldn't deny it, staring at the talisman on her waist, the demonic energy in her hand gradually taking shape. "But you were once Yue Qiran, a traitor known to the world. Little A Zi, for the sake of Yue Shan and the others, you must die."

Tao Zi lowered her eyes. She just wanted to spend the rest of her life in peace and quiet. Why was it so difficult?

"Sister Li, can I ask you one last question?"

"sure."

"Who told you that I used to be Yue Qiran's?"

She looked up at Widow Li, not disguising the murderous intent in her eyes: "That man must die too."

Widow Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, he doesn't know you're here."

Tao Zi's palms were bleeding profusely, but she couldn't faint. She had to find out the man's identity: "How did you recognize me?"

"Some of the demonic energy in my body invaded my head, and when Old Man Wen sealed it, I was injured, causing my memories to become blurry. But not long ago, after I became possessed by the demon, I remembered everything, and naturally I remembered you too."

She didn't believe this and said, "Impossible. I just came here recently. Judging from my age, you can't have seen me before."

Widow Li smiled strangely. "I used to be a popular prostitute in the building. I met a middle-class member of the Xujia clan. He had your portrait in his room and asked me to dress according to it. When we were in bed, he even called me Ah Ran. How did I know? It's only because I always acted like an illiterate and obedient fool. Otherwise, I would have died long ago."

She ignored Tao Zi's brilliant expression and continued to get back to the point: "For someone like him to even imagine you would only look for a prostitute who seems to know nothing, you can see how serious the matter is."

She took a deep breath, her heart aching even more with this action, and began to feel the pain of ants biting her body, but she suspected that it was because of anger: "At that time, I was still the eldest sister of Minglan Sect, so he was afraid of my identity, not the alien race."

Even though she looks calm on the outside, she is already cursing in her heart.

"He is afraid of the Minglan Sect. You are a traitor to the Minglan Sect. That's enough."

Tao Zi looked at the talisman paper, the color of which had gradually faded: "You haven't told me who he is yet."

"I don't know. How could he possibly let me know his true identity? He only knew my status as a middle-level member of the Xujia Clan in order to threaten me. Oh, by the way, he's dead. You don't have to seek revenge."

She was caught off guard by this turn of events. Widow Li said calmly, "When he got tired of me, he wanted to kill me. I was nothing anyway. Who would have thought that he would be killed first?"

"From what the middle-level leader said before he died, he seemed to be from the Punishment Hall, and his name was Zhan or something. I'm very grateful to him. He even killed the middle-level leader's men, which was equivalent to erasing my traces and allowing me to survive."

Punishment... Tao Zi held the dagger tightly, trying to retain the last bit of sanity in the pain of his body.

She remembered that over a decade ago, she had set her sights on a territory belonging to the Xujia Sect, and had sent Xing Zhan over to try to stir up trouble, ideally with the Minglan Sect on the right, so she could take action openly. Widow Li must have survived because of this, but she had kept it a secret.

Widow Li didn't know what she was thinking. She said, "I can guess. He should be yours. To repay you, I won't tell Old Man Wen about your identity. I want you to die with a clear conscience."

"Thank you, but I don't want it."

Before Tao Zi finished speaking, she threw the dagger in her hand, and she subconsciously resisted with demonic energy.

After realizing what was happening, Widow Li's face darkened. It would take more than a short time to gather the demonic energy to kill Tao Zi in one go.

Forget it, I'll kill her once first, maybe I can force her to leave Yisanmen, that's enough.

She rushed over, and Tao Zi's vision was already blurred. She could only listen to the sound of the wind and try to avoid it.

Even so, the pain did not allow her to move swiftly. In just a few breaths, she was stabbed several times and hit by several demonic auras of varying severity.

Tao Zi thought with some humor in her heart, wondering if she should tell Sister Li to save some magic energy. After all, the second time she kills the aliens, she can only use spiritual energy and other things like daggers.

Not long after, when she was in a dying state, the master arrived.

A long sword and a piece of talisman paper pierced into Widow Li's body, and her body shook at that moment.

Tao Zi narrowed her eyes and approached Widow Li at an angle where her master couldn't see her, leaving a flaw and giving Widow Li a chance to kill her, while also forcing her master to kill her - her master couldn't be allowed to know that she was Yue Qiran.

Foreigners must be killed by everyone. She can't gamble, because the human heart is the most ungainly thing.

Sure enough, Widow Li took action, and the master also took action.

Both of them fell to the ground injured, and the master quickly came over to help her.

The familiar feeling of dizziness finally came over her. Before she fainted, she secretly sighed that she was worthy of being in the Solid Stage. She had managed to hold on for so long, only slightly worse than the Golden Core Stage.

The master carefully placed her on the ground and frowned as he looked at the injuries on her body, especially on her hands.

Widow Li's intermittent voice came from behind: "Old Man Wen, is she still alive?"

Without even turning his head, he bandaged Tao Zi's wound and said, "If she were dead, do you think you would still be alive now? Yue Shan will be here soon. Think carefully about what you want to say to them."

"She can't live. She's an alien, she's..."

The master turned around, his voice full of warning: "Shut up, no one knows who she is better than me."
