I'm just an assistant, I don't save people

Chapter 396 Xiaolan's Demonic Thoughts Have Begun

Xiao Lan suddenly felt a chill in her heart. As a demon beast, it could only be a servant, and it had overstepped its bounds.

Lin Yan may not seem intimidating, but he shows no mercy when faced with threats.

The cabbage and the red light stood silently to the side, indifferent.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Xiao Lan wanted to explain to Lin Yan, but found that she couldn't make a sound at all.

It hurriedly turned its head to look at Xiao Ye, clearly indicating that the Bi Ye Tree had used a skill.

At this moment, Xiao Ye was very indifferent, completely different from usual, and didn't even glance at it.

Xiao Ye and Lin Yan suggested, "Young master, Huanhuan is timid and not very efficient. Why don't we let Xiaolan stay as well? She can help Zhang Jinglue if anything happens."

Xiaolan: !!

Xiao Lan's eyes showed panic as she turned to look at Lin Yan, her heart filled with worry.

Master, don't listen to it. The Crystal Forest is dangerous. You must take me there.

The sound transmission was blocked by some skill, and Xiao Lan's eyes widened. It had underestimated the Sacred Tree.

After a moment's thought, Lin Yan said, "Xiao Lan, you should stay too."

The Molan clan held a very high position in the Liguang Forest, and their unique scent made them easy for monsters to spot. Considering this, she agreed.

Xiao Lan nodded helplessly.

The skill was quickly unlocked, and it gritted its teeth and asked Xiao Ye, "What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Ye sneered, "I'm crazy? Are you out of your mind? What? The young master considers you a friend? You really think you're worthy?"

Xiao Lan laughed angrily, "I'm worried about my young master. Do you know how chaotic the Li Guang Forest is? You're just spouting nonsense and sowing discord here, thinking I'm afraid of you just because you have the secret techniques of the Sacred Tree?"

"Heh, you're quite good at flattering yourself. Do you have the strength of Lord Red Lantern? Do you have my brains? What are you worried about? If I wanted to deliberately provoke you, you wouldn't even be qualified to use your storage device."

The two demonic beasts were arguing fiercely.

Lin Yan didn't get involved, not because she had a superior attitude, but because the reason was unclear.

She turned around and asked, "Red Lantern, how long will it take you to get me from here to Tianji Academy?"

Hong Deng calmly replied, "Two seconds."

In fact, one second later, she had to gently put Lin Yan down to prevent her from being crushed by the space.

The difference in realm can instantly create a distance as vast as heaven and earth.

Lin Yan, who was already used to major repair skills, was not too surprised.

Her only worry was that the great formation of Tianluo City would lock down the skills of the dark element and the ghost race.

"I'll just use the substitution symbol myself, it'll be safer."

After being threatened by Xiao Ye, Xiao Lan fell silent, feeling deeply wronged and as if she had suffered a great injustice.

It used to get along so well with its little master. When it first transformed, it was always busy helping its little master level up, which led to the contract with Xiao Ye and the current situation.

If its little owner doesn't help it, no one else will say a word.

Little Leaf anticipated its thoughts and transmitted a message to it, saying fiercely: "My little master never interferes in these messy things. If you dare to harbor any resentment again, I will pluck out your petals one by one."

Xiao Lan glanced at it out of the corner of her eye and cursed inwardly: It's crazy.

The two demonic beasts were clashing, seemingly vying for Lin Yan's affections.

But Xiao Ying noticed something. She was the first demon beast to follow Lin Yan and knew the evolution process of the Jade Leaf Tree best.

I wouldn't dare say I know much about the Sacred Tree, but Xiao Ye would never do anything to harm Lin Yan. It's a contracted beast, and its fate is intertwined with its master's.

So the problem lies with Xiaolan!

Xiao Ying turned to Huan Huan and instructed, "You stay here and listen to Zhang Jinglue. Don't cause trouble for your young master."

Huanhuan nodded repeatedly: "Mhm."

7:40.

Lin Yan left, and Huanhuan transformed into her likeness, sitting on the sofa with her arms wrapped around her knees.

Xiao Lan ignored it and found a corner to cultivate on her own.

Not long after, Zhang Jinglue tiptoed out from behind the wall and landed with a hop.

"Who?" Huanhuan was almost startled back to her original form. Smelling Zhang Jinglue's scent, she asked in surprise, "How did you get out of the wall?"

Zhang Jinglue rubbed the bump on his head: "I used a high-level spirit talisman and went to the wrong place."

It's pitiful that someone with the status of a weapon-refining master has been reduced to using talismans to avoid the tracking array of the Joint Academy.

A humiliating disgrace.

He walked over and sat down on the sofa. "What were you doing just now? You seemed distracted. Did Lin Yan scold you?"

Huanhuan turned her head to look in Xiaolan's direction, her face downcast and pitiful as she whispered, "Xiaoye and Xiaolan had a fight."

"It's not like we've never argued before, what's there to be afraid of?"

"It's different, they're arguing a lot."

Zhang Jinglue asked in confusion, "Why?"

Huanhuan recounted their argument verbatim, without missing a single word. If you added their expressions and sentences, it would be a perfect reenactment.

“I could tell that Xiao Ye was very angry, so angry that she couldn’t help but lose her temper, but I don’t understand why she was so angry.”

Huanhuan was extremely frustrated. She sighed deeply and looked at Zhang Jinglue with a worried expression, saying, "Xiaoying told me to listen to you, and I will listen to everything you say."

Zhang Jinglue patted its head and said, "I understand."

As he finished speaking, a fleeting glimmer of light appeared in his hand.

Almost simultaneously, Zhang Zhou received the message and told Xiao Ye, "He knows."

Thank you.

Xiao Ye remained silent the whole way, but in fact she was communicating with Lin Yan through her inner thoughts.

Lin Yan rested his chin on his hand on the car window, turned his head to look out the window, and remained expressionless.

The cause and effect are somewhat complicated, and this matter also involves Gen Ye.

Xiao Ye and it had made a pact that if necessary, Xiao Lan would be eliminated.

Xiao Lan's true form contains half demon blood; once her demonic heart awakens, she must be eradicated completely.

Ke Linyan did not express his opinion.

That fragrant orchid was more than just a demon servant to her.

Xiao Ye advised telepathically: "Young master may think that being swayed by emotions is nothing, but cultivators are most easily dragged down by emotions, and acting on emotions is a major taboo."

I have witnessed too many lives and deaths in the memories of the sacred tree, and I do not wish you to follow in their footsteps.

Therefore, some rebellious things should be said. In the future, you don't need to explain the reasons to everyone for everything, especially matters of spiritual practice. If needed, you can give orders directly. If you are unsure, then ask.

Master can treat everyone kindly, but if I, Huanhuan, Xiaoying, Baicai, or even Xuanye show the slightest disrespect to you, they deserve to die.

Moreover, Xiaolan's demonic thoughts have already arisen; she harbors treacherous intentions and is like a time bomb for the human race. Little master, Xiaolan knows too much; letting her go is no longer an option.

Lin Yan remained silent, his heart filled with mixed emotions, as he thought about killing Xiao Lan...

When this was mentioned, her left and right brains were at odds, with two thoughts vying for her attention: one was to let Xiaolan go because of their past time together, and the other was to take decisive action.

Headache.

Is this the dilemma Qin Lu faces when confronted with emptiness, and Lan Feiyu's dilemma when confronted with Lan Yu?

The night was dark and desolate.

The atmosphere inside the car was oppressive.

Zhang Zhou checked the time and said, "There are arrays locking us in Tianluo City, so we can't fly. But don't worry, this route is fast too."

Lin Yan nodded: "Okay."

Zhang Zhou: "The camp outside the South Gate is still under construction. I have received news that Yan Lie has broken through the realm and become a lord again. I have no idea how he has been able to gain the favor of the Demon Emperor again."

In recent months, the ghost and demon races have been constantly emerging from the ground, and with the addition of the demon race and the human race, the four races are fighting each other, making the Liguang Forest a chaotic place.

Lin Yan's eyes suddenly darkened.

Xiao Lan already knew that the Liguang Forest was chaotic, but after returning to the lower three levels, she stayed in the storage device.

That's why Xiao Ye didn't let it follow.

According to Xiao Ye, Xiao Lan's demonic thoughts had only recently awakened, so Xiao Lan could still remain as she was.

But its consciousness will eventually be controlled by demonic thoughts, and the most terrifying thing is that demonic thoughts will take over its physical body and memories.

In Xiaolan's memory, there is everything about her!

This includes the abundant cultivation resources in the storage device, the existence of Xuan Ye and Shi Jing, and even her identity as a collector!

It was extremely dangerous for her.

She needs to find a way to suppress the inheritance seal as soon as possible, and then eradicate Xiaolan's demonic heart. If she can't eradicate it... she must ensure that Xiaolan's memories are not leaked. If she could learn a powerful spell to erase memories, it would save her a lot of trouble.

Lin Yan turned to Zhang Zhou and said calmly, "This time I won't kill the demon; I'll find the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Tree."

"What?!" Zhang Zhou exclaimed, his face paling.

They had fought against the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Tree before, and Lin Yan knew how terrifying it was.

Remembering her earlier statement, Zhang Zhou's expression quickly returned to normal. "Even if you don't kill it, it might still kill you if it sees you."

Lin Yan said seriously, "That's why I called you along. Adding a red light ensures safety."

Zhang Zhou asked in confusion, "What do you want with the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Tree?"

"I need it to do me a favor, but I can't tell you right now. Besides, there's another big problem: Red Lantern has appeared in the Liguang Forest, and the Demon Emperor will most likely be chasing after us."

Regardless of success or failure, if you help me this time, I'll give you everything I have to help you in the future.

"make a deal!"

Zhang Zhou did not hesitate for a moment; Lin Yan's kindness was priceless.
