I suddenly thrust at Ji Xinglan. Ji Xinglan was still defending something, but when she saw my Thunder Strike Sword, she was completely dumbfounded.
"Uncle, why..."
Before Ji Xinglan could say anything, my Thunder Strike Sword stabbed her directly in the stomach. After the last enhancement, the Thunder Strike Sword is not only powerful in terms of magic.
The entire sword also became quite sharp.
So even though it was made of wood, it was powerful enough to pierce a person's stomach.
Especially for someone like Ji Xinglan, who has little power to begin with, the chances of survival are immediately dashed.
As the lightning sword pierced through, Ji Xinglan cried out.
However, Ji Xinglan's energy did not dissipate; on the contrary, Wang Xu's power poured out like a flood.
I could see that Ji Xinglan was in great pain, but even in pain, I couldn't stop what I was doing. I gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and kept channeling my power into it.
Ji Xinglan was shouting there with her hair disheveled, but I still didn't react at all.
My heart was pounding, and I could sense that danger was getting closer.
"Master, please insert it again. Not here, it should be at the heart!"
Just then, Lei Jijian suddenly transmitted a message to me.
Without saying a word, I drew my Thunder Strike Sword and aimed it at Ji Xinglan's heart with another strike.
This time, when the lightning sword pierced Ji Xinglan's heart, I could sense that the energy of the lightning sword and Ji Xinglan's energy resonated to some extent.
Wang Xu's body also exploded in an instant.
Then Wang Xu's body shrank continuously like mud, eventually turning into a black pill.
Ji Xinglan's body continued to tremble for about half a minute before it finally stopped moving.
I drew my Thunder Strike Sword, and Ji Xinglan naturally fell into my arms.
I observed it through my clairvoyance, and sure enough, the energy in Ji Xinglan's body had disappeared.
"What happened, Uncle Chen? What exactly happened just now?"
A moment later, Ji Xinglan opened her eyes and looked at me blankly, as if she knew nothing about what had just happened.
"Don't you remember?"
I stared at Ji Xinglan with some doubt, but Ji Xinglan didn't seem to have completely forgotten.
"I only remember Wang Xu coming, and I don't know anything after that!"
Ji Xinglan shook her head; her pure and lovely appearance didn't seem like she was lying.
I paused, stared at Ji Xinglan for a long time, weighing the matter in my mind, and finally nodded, indicating that I believed what Ji Xinglan said.
I then saw the immense energy contained within the pill through my third eye.
I picked up the pill and then told Ji Xinglan what had happened before.
Ji Xinglan was completely dumbfounded after hearing this!
"Uncle Chen, are you saying that you stabbed me in the chest with this sword just now, and only then did Wang Xu stop?"
After a long silence with her mouth agape, Ji Xinglan finally spoke slowly and asked me.
And even when I asked them, they still couldn't quite believe it was all true.
"I never imagined that Wang Xu and you were actually one!"
I held the black pill, sighed, and shook my head slightly.
Things are really getting more and more out of my control.
"Master, you're wrong. They're not one! It's just that a portion of Ji Xinglan's power was absorbed by Wang Xu, creating some kind of connection between them!"
Just then, Lei Jijian suddenly cried out in surprise.
"What do you mean? Are you saying that Ji Xinglan was used by Wang Xu?"
I squinted, somewhat disbelieving this conclusion.
"More or less! I just realized that Ji Xinglan's intention wasn't genuine. In other words, Wang Xu's lack of a Earth Soul is the same as his master's. I guess he did that because he wanted to find the missing Earth Soul!"
Lei Jijian then launched into a long and eloquent speech.
Ji Xinglan sat on the bed, clutching her chest. I glanced at her heart with a slight sense of guilt.
To my surprise, Ji Xinglan's body was automatically repaired.
This scene was unheard of; I had never heard of anything so strange.
"Lightning Strike Sword, why were Ji Xinglan's wounds repaired?"
Is this your doing, or is it his inherent ability?
I looked at the Thunder Strike Sword again, wondering whether this ability came from the Thunder Strike Sword or from Ji Xinglan herself.
"Of course it comes from that girl. Let me tell you, that girl is no ordinary person!"
"Lightning Strike Sword transmitted its voice to me."
I could sense the apprehension in Lei Jijian's tone.
This made me even more cautious. Ever since this guy fused with the owl, I've never heard of him having any such concerns.
This is the first time such an unexpected effect has been produced.
"Ji Xinglan, are you alright?"
I quickly put down the lightning sword and walked over to Ji Xinglan, starting to show concern for her.
Fortunately, apart from a few minor abrasions, Ji Xinglan had no other marks on her body.
The wounds, including the punctured abdomen and the punctured heart, healed in an instant.
Only two shockingly large holes could be seen on Ji Xinglan's back.
Looking at the two large holes, I couldn't help but put my hand on them and touch them.
"It must be that Wang Xu lacked the Earth Soul, so he injected a portion of the energy from his body into yours, forming a connection with you!"
He wants to use this opportunity to assimilate your power, and ultimately use all of your soul to complete himself!
I sat down next to Ji Xinglan and gave her an explanation, which was based on what Lei Jijian had just told me.
I also explained the matter of the Earth Soul to Ji Xinglan in detail.
"So at that time, the uncle saw through Wang Xu's true intentions and attacked me directly, which is why Wang Xu suffered the backlash?"
Ji Xinglan is really very smart. I only said a few words, and Ji Xinglan had already completely guessed it.
"Yes, that's right. Fortunately, it didn't cause any major problems."
I nodded vigorously and exclaimed, "That was close!"
Fortunately, I found the problem at the most crucial moment.
At that moment, I looked at the pill in my hand.
"Check the manual to see if it's there!"
I originally wanted to study the pills, but then I thought of Ji Xinglan's booklet.
Ji Xinglan dared not delay and quickly retrieved the booklet. She flipped through the last few pages and, sure enough, found new words on it.
"Uncle Chen, the higher-ups say that the inner demons have been overcome, and the reward is what you've gained. You can retrieve what you've been missing!"
As Ji Xinglan spoke, she placed the booklet in front of my face, and I could see the words on it.
My pupils suddenly dilated.
You can find what you're missing, but what is that missing thing?
The only thing I can think of is the Earth Soul!
