Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Countless bones were stacked together like a dam built by beavers.

From afar, it was a vast expanse of white. If not for the large number of skulls mixed in, Lin Ran wouldn’t have recognized what it was.

Suddenly, Lin Ran’s eyes narrowed. In the next second, he appeared in the wooden building.

Meanwhile, the flying wood shavings and tiles had yet to fall to the ground.

Lin Ran stood still and summoned the Yin-Yang Sword. The Three Essence Sword Technique and the Nine Yin-Yang Sword Technique were activated at the same time, giving out penetrating sword intent. At this moment, he looked like he was facing a great enemy!

!!

However, what appeared In the corner of the wooden building was only a little girl.

The little girl was about seven or eight years old. Her face was round and she was wearing rough clothes. There were two braids on her head. She looked at Lin Ran with her big black eyes, as if wondering where this “old man” came from.

On the surface, this little girl did not seem to pose any threat.

However, for a seven or eight-year-old girl to stand in front of this pile of bones without looking terrified was already enough to explain many things.

Lin Ran tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword and asked in a low voice, “Who are you?”

The girl didn’t say anything and continued to look at Lin Ran with her big hollow eyes.

“Are you from the mountains?”

“Where are the others?”

“What’s with the bones?”

…

Lin Ran asked more than ten questions in a row, but he received no response.

“Is she mute?”

Lin Ran muttered to himself, but the girl opposite him suddenly spoke.

“Interesting, very interesting.”

The little girl spoke clearly, but her voice sounded a little strange, as if she was afraid that Lin Ran would recognize her voice, so she deliberately used a strange voice.

“So you can talk?”

Lin Ran smiled and straightened his body. He seemed to have let down his guard, but the surging power in his body was still on the verge of eruption.

“Are you from the mountains?”

Lin Ran asked the same question again. The girl still didn’t say anything, but this time, she shook her head.

“So you’re not a local…” Lin Ran asked, “Then do you know what’s with the bones?”

The girl nodded.

“It’s related to you, isn’t it?”

Lin Ran continued to ask with a kind smile on his face and a relaxed tone, but his words were terrifying. “You killed these people and devoured their flesh and blood. Is this some kind of a cultivation technique? No, no… It should be a way to heal your injuries, right? Evil demon?”

The girl listened quietly, her big black eyes like a bottomless pool of water.

After Lin Ran finished speaking, the girl nodded and smiled strangely, as if an invisible hand was tugging at the corner of her mouth.

“So you recognized me.”

Hearing that the girl, or rather, the demon, had admitted her identity, Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel surprised.

Ever since Lin Rain was determined to bring the demon back to Mount Sword, he had imagined the scene of meeting the demon countless times. However, he had never thought that the infamous “demon” was actually a harmless-looking little girl.

However, when he used his supreme sense to investigate the wooden building just now, he did find a familiar evil aura in this little girl’s body.

The two of them looked at each other across the mounds of bones.

The girl’s clear eyes landed on the Yin Yang Sword in Lin Ran’s hand. “You have my aura on your sword, but you’re not me. You have his aura on you, but you’re not him. Why are you like this?”

“Maybe it’s fate?”

Lin Ran looked at the Yin-Yang Sword in his hand and smiled with emotion. “I inherited a portion of Sword supreme-ruler’s internal energy. This sword is stained with a portion of your evil aura, but no matter what, I will use this power to completely destroy you.”

“Is that so?”

The strange smile on the girl’s face widened. “Interesting, very interesting. You don’t even know where I am, and you actually want to destroy me?”

Lin Ran frowned slightly. “Aren’t you here?”

“I’m here, but at the same time, I’m not here.”

As the girl spoke, she pointed at herself with the hand that was holding the rattle drum. “This is just a puppet. Everyone in her village is dead. I left a wisp of evil aura in her body to see what kind of person is pretending to be the Ten Miles Sword supreme-ruler”

When she said “pretending to be the Ten Mile Sword supreme-ruler”, the girl’s tone did not fluctuate at all, as if she had already known about this.

Back then, the Ten Miles Sword supreme-ruler had died at the hands of this demon, so when it heard that the Sword supreme-ruler had come out of seclusion, it immediately knew that the news was fake.

However, this would raise another problem.

Since the demon was already certain that the Sword supreme-ruler was dead, why didn’t he just tell Liu Yuntao about it? Instead, he asked Liu Yuntao to lure everyone to the state banquet to test the waters.

Countless questions poured out like a fountain, but now was not the time to think.

Lin Ran took a deep breath and looked at the girl’s dark eyes from afar. “Although she is only a puppet, if I kill her, you will also be injured, right?”

The girl looked at Lin Ran with a strange smile. There was no fear on her young face. “You can try.”

“Alright.”

Lin Ran nodded and walked towards the girl with the Yin Yang Sword.

With the first step forward, countless destructive sword energy crushed the bones blocking the way.

With the second step forward, invisible sword energy formed a cage that instantly trapped the girl.

With the third step forward, Lin Ran was already in front of the girl. The tip of the Yin-Yang Sword was less than half an inch away from the girl’s throat!

Even so, there was no fear on the girl’s face.

Endless sharp sword intent wreaked havoc around her like a snowstorm in winter, but she seemed to be bathing in the spring sun without even bothering to flinch.

“You win.”

Lin Ran sighed and sat down cross-legged in front of the girl, placing the Yin Yang Sword horizontally on his lap.

“Why? You can’t do it?”

The girl continued to ask with a strange smile, “Didn’t you want to destroy me? Why are you giving up so quickly?”

“I just don’t want you to get what you want.”

Lin Ran shrugged and analyzed as if he was talking to himself, “Even if I kill her, you will only lose a wisp of evil aura.”

The girl did not speak, but her eyes suddenly turned cold.

Lin Ran looked at the girl and smiled brightly. Unfortunately, he was wearing the face of the Ten Mile Sword supreme-ruler, making this smile look more frightening. “You want to find out more about me, and I want to find out more about you… Why don’t we talk?”
