“Hehe~haha!”
The little ghost laughed, but the expression on its face looked like it was crying.
Seeing that 'Sha 10' was laughing like a ghost again, Lan Xi glanced at it sideways and gave it a warning glance!
Upon seeing this, 'Sha10' immediately realized his master's displeasure, and the little ghost stumbled over his words.
"I, too... killed!"
Lan Xi understood that Xiao Gui was also involved in getting rid of Xue Xiang.
Lan Xi didn't think there was anything wrong with the evil spirit under his command killing people.
She made her position clear to Ao Shen, "You who trespass without permission shall be killed!"
Ao Shen: ...
A first-class monk from a monastic association was killed. This matter cannot be let go without a proper explanation.
But Xue Xiang really shouldn't have trespassed into someone else's house.
But it is not a crime punishable by death.
If someone is caught, Ao Shen will definitely find a way to rescue him.
But now the person is dead——
Then he could only accept the result and find a way to resolve the matter.
"Miss Lan, I'll help you resolve Xue Xiang's matter, but I hope you can cooperate and keep the fact that you're an evil cultivator a secret forever!"
After weighing the pros and cons, Ao Shen decided not to let Lan Xi's identity be exposed.
Lan Xi also didn't want the fact that he was an evil cultivator to become known to everyone.
She looked into Ao Shen's eyes seriously. The 'Sha8' nightmare flower gradually exerted its power, and was even about to affect Ao Shen's mind. When it peeped into his heart, Ao Shen's eyes, which were about to be blurred, suddenly became clear!
He looked at Lan Xi with a cold face and wary eyes, "Miss Lan, what do you mean by this?!"
"I just want to know whether you were sincere in what you just said." Lan Xi answered as a matter of course.
As she spoke, she screamed, "Sha8".
The next second, a beautiful purple-black flower appeared on her shoulder.
The flower is surrounded by a light mist, which makes it look dreamy and unlike any ordinary thing.
"This is..." Ao Shen stared blankly at the flower that suddenly appeared. He frowned and thought for a long time before he half-guessedly recognized this thing!
"Is this the legendary nightmare flower?!" Ao Shen looked at Lan Xi and asked for the answer.
Lan Xi nodded, "Yes."
As she spoke, she met Ao Shen's gaze again, "The Nightmare Flower can reflect your true inner self. I want to know if you really want to help me hide your identity, so if you accept the test, I will believe you."
"Is it really just a test?" Ao Shen hesitated slightly.
He didn't dare to be careless at all about the Nightmare Flower, a legendary thing!
Few words passed down from ancient books let Ao Shen know that the nightmare flower can kill people invisibly in dreams!
Ao Shen was not sure whether he could extricate himself in time like he did just now once he was completely bewitched by the Nightmare Flower.
So even for his own safety, he should not listen to Lan Xi and accept the test of the Nightmare Flower.
Can……
If he refused, Lan Xi would never believe him.
Then it might not be so easy for him to leave here today——
Ao Shen suddenly thought of the beginning. Lan Xi said that the result he calculated for him was that he would not suffer any bloody disaster.
So... he can give it a try!
Meeting Lan Xi's gaze, Ao Shen was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Yes, I am willing to let the Nightmare Flower explore my heart."
As he spoke, his mind gradually relaxed, and the Nightmare Flower 'Sha 8' took this opportunity to immediately use its ability to sneak into Ao Shen's consciousness.
Lan Xi asked again, "You really don't want to expose the fact that I'm an evil cultivator?"
Ao Shen nodded, "Hiding your identity is the best option for everyone."
This time, with the help of the nightmare flower, Ao Shen could still say without hesitation that he would help Lan Xi conceal his identity. Only then did Lan Xi believe the purpose of Ao Shen's coming here.
She took back the Nightmare Flower 'Sha8' and nodded towards Ao Shen.
"I believe you."
After saying that, Lan Xi noticed another thing.
"You said that many cultivators who had spread the news of my identity thought I was an evil cultivator. Have you found the person who spread the news?"
If you want to conceal your identity, you must curb the source of the spread of "rumors"!
Ao Shen certainly knew what to do, but unfortunately, he didn't find out who was behind the spread of the news.
"I've captured two second-class monks from the association and discovered that their minds showed signs of being controlled. They were simply being used, and that's why they spread those rumors."
"Being controlled by someone?" After getting this clue, Lan Xi suddenly thought of something.
"There's a kind of soul-controlling technique among evil cultivation techniques that can control a person's mind and make them work for one's own ends. They must have been struck by this soul-controlling technique."
"And the evil cultivator who can directly control a second-class cultivator must have a high level of cultivation."
Thinking of this, Lan Xi's first reaction was to guess that it was Taoist Guanghong.
However, Taoist Guanghong's soul had already been destroyed, and it was impossible for him to control others from spreading rumors that were unfavorable to him.
So who is the real person spreading rumors behind the scenes? !
Could it be that Taoist Guanghong has some powerful helpers around him?
It was not difficult for Lan Xi to see that the other party was attacking with an intention that was disadvantageous to him.
The purpose of the evil cultivator hiding behind the scenes is to expose her identity and make her the target of attack by the righteous cultivators.
So is the other party seeking revenge for Taoist Guanghong?
Since the other party was coming for her, she absolutely could not let it go.
I won’t offend others unless they offend me. If you create trouble for yourself, you will have to bear the consequences!
Lan Xi looked at Ao Shen and asked, "I want to meet those two controlled monks."
After hearing her say this, Ao Shen roughly guessed that perhaps the little girl wanted to find the whereabouts of the manipulator behind the scenes through the two of them?
The righteous cultivators don't understand things like 'soul-controlling techniques', so how can they find clues in reverse? Perhaps only Lan Xi, who is also an evil cultivator, can do it.
So Ao Shen nodded.
"Okay, I'll arrange for you to meet them."
"If possible, can we meet at the Shangjing Monks' Association?"
Lan Xi agreed without hesitation and said, "Yeah."
Ao Shen was somewhat surprised to see the little girl agreed so quickly.
"Miss Lan, aren't you afraid that I'll set a trap for you to fall into?"
Hearing Ao Shen's assumption, Lan Xi smiled at him and said, "If you want, feel free to do so."
The reason she could say this was not because she was fearless, but because she had absolute confidence in her own abilities.
Lan Xi didn't dare to say anything else, but it was not difficult to fight his way out of those upright monks.
The evil cultivators' methods are cunning and cunning. Once they start to act ruthlessly, the righteous cultivators will definitely not be their match!
On the opposite side, Ao Shen suddenly felt a chill down his spine because of the little girl's meaningful smile!
Originally, he was just joking with Lan Xi.
But now, he suddenly realized that even if Miss Lan Xi did not have Nv Ba as her backer, perhaps she herself could not be shaken by the upright monks!
