Chapter 534 Temple Raid! Take Down Another Pair of Dogs!

After dealing with the white-bearded elder, Lin Ran turned his gaze to the vacant-eyed Kannai-miya. Compared to his master, this guy didn't hold much value. At best, he was a bargaining chip or bait. However, since his prison was empty, it was better to have him lie there; perhaps he'd be of some use later! With this thought, Lin Ran cast one last glance at Kannai-miya before departing. With another convergence of Shenwei's spatial vortex, Lin Ran and Luo Qingyan successfully returned to the real world. "Are we going to find the old man's lover now?" Luo Qingyan had largely figured out Lin Ran's intentions. Lin Ran nodded. "Of course... To defeat Ye Yun, these two are definitely crucial figures. If I can obtain their souls, it's equivalent to obtaining a secret weapon to counter Ye Yun. Let's go! We'll collect the other half now!" Saying this, Lin Ran summoned Vimana from Shenwei's space and placed them both inside. Although Luo Qingyan didn't know exactly what Lin Ran planned to do, she knew it would be fine as long as she followed him. Thus, the two of them sped off on Vimana, flying towards the other side of Kyushu Island. ... Two hours later. East Celestial Temple. The white-haired woman stared incredulously at the man and woman before her, almost thinking her ears were playing tricks on her. "What did you say?!" Lin Ran glanced at her. "You, the leader of a shrine organization, have such poor hearing?" "Never mind, saying it again won't take too much time... Hand over control of the White Reaper immediately, and don't force me to perform soul extraction myself! While you're destined to die, if you cooperate, I might consider making your death a bit easier... If you insist on being stubborn, you'll have to taste the agony of being pierced by ten thousand arrows!" The white-haired woman's expression instantly turned ferocious. "Who told you about the White Reaper?!" "How could you have obtained information about it without contacting my disciple?" Lin Ran sneered. "Do you really think you're the only ones who know this information in the world? That would be looking down on me, the lord of this domain, a bit too much... I'm here to get what I want, not to argue with you... If you don't act quickly, I'll have no choice but to resort to violence!" Hearing Lin Ran's words, the white-haired woman's pupils contracted again. The lord of the domain?! Did he mean that the vast formation covering Kyushu Island was his creation? If so, how terrifying must this man's strength be! Especially the fact that these two could bypass all guards, nullify all reconnaissance, and reach her side within the shrine without being detected by anything was already proof of their terrifying capabilities. But no matter how formidable Lin Ran was, she was now cornered with no room to retreat. After all, the other party had explicitly stated he wanted her life and to seize control of the White Reaper... She couldn't give up either of these things! In that case... "You dare to covet my life? And covet the White Reaper? Then let this seat test your strength first!" In her desperation, she chose a path she truly did not want to take... That is, to sound the shrine's alarm and engage Lin Ran and his companion immediately. The pressure Lin Ran exerted on her was too immense; if there were any other options, she truly wouldn't have wanted this. And her hesitation did not escape Lin Ran's all-seeing eyes. "Facing a life-or-death crisis and already showing fear before the fight?" "You old folks who have lived too long truly deserve to return to dust!" Lin Ran faced the white-haired woman without any fear, immediately activating his Room domain, drawing out the Curse Blade, and attacking. Under the endless cutting force of the Room domain, every movement the white-haired woman made had to endure the pain of spatial tearing and the friction of energy backflow. Lin Ran, on the other hand, enjoyed various opposite enhancements. Thus, with her inherent strength already inferior, the white-robed woman found herself in an irreversible disadvantage from the moment they clashed. Furthermore, the shrine guards she had summoned through the alarm were all being relentlessly slaughtered by Luo Qingyan alone, further shaking her morale. "Give up, you've already lost without a doubt!" "What's wrong with making your death a little easier?" "Besides, your lover already left you before you did, so there's no point in you lingering on stubbornly, is there?" Lin Ran continued his verbal assault. Upon hearing this, the white-haired woman visibly trembled and said urgently, "What did you say?!" Lin Ran sighed. "Your hearing is truly outrageous, making me repeat every sentence a second time... I said your lover, who intended to possess Kannai-miya, has already returned to the underworld! She's waiting for you on the path to the Yellow Springs... Don't keep her waiting too long; why not go accompany her soon?" The white-haired woman let out a desolate howl and fixed her bloodthirsty gaze on Lin Ran. "You killed him?!" Lin Ran nodded without denial. "Otherwise? You wicked pair, who have countless blood debts on your hands, are already deserving of death by everyone! And you even intended to resurrect yourselves by possessing young bodies, even choosing to harm your own disciples... Killing you is such a merit-earning act, why wouldn't I do it?" The white-haired woman was almost infuriated to death, her howls becoming even more piercing. "Ahhhhhhh!" "I will kill you today!" Seeing her mentally collapse step by step, her consciousness becoming increasingly unclear, and her spiritual defense weakening infinitely, Lin Ran smiled with satisfaction. "Oh? Kill me?" "You probably couldn't achieve that even if you cultivated for another thousand years!" With that, Lin Ran stared intently at the white-haired woman's chest. And at the moment before she completely descended into madness, he activated his ocular technique. Tsukuyomi! In the face of overwhelming energy, a vast disparity in mental power, a calculated ambush, and a skill that was a dimensional drop, how could the white-haired woman have any room to struggle? In less than a second, she fell to the ground with a thud.
