After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

Chapter 309 Is he pretending?

Shen Qingqing, who pretended to be unconscious, was first dizzy by the sky-high points for the system's hidden tasks. After calming down, she was shocked by the fact that Jiang Liqian had a mental demon and was unable to recover for a long time.

She couldn't help but wonder.

Just now she...did she hear it wrong?

Jiang Liqian.

Got a demon in your heart?

She, a top-grade thunder spirit root, has a demon in her heart?

Was she just imagining things, or was the system playing a joke on her?

[System, you're not lying to me, are you? A person with a Thunder Spiritual Root can develop a demonic mind? Are you sick, or am I?]

The system is just a system. It only executes orders coldly and does not understand the disbelief in Shen Qingqing's words.

Whether Jiang Liqian has a thunder spirit root or whether she will have a mental demon has nothing to do with it. It only mechanically executes the published task. Of course, the host can choose not to do this hidden task.

[After a round of testing, this system is not damaged. Host, do you choose to perform the hidden mission? ]

[……] Shen Qingqing.

What a fool!

It is well known in the world of cultivation that among the five elements of spiritual roots, single spiritual roots are the best. Among single spiritual roots, mutated spiritual roots are the best. And among mutated spiritual roots, thunder spiritual roots are the most respected.

The reason is simple. The Thunder Spirit Root not only has a strong attack power, but also has an incredible defense ability. Most importantly, it is a spirit root that is naturally close to the thunder of heaven. It can break all evil and prevent the birth of demons and monsters.

Now someone told her that Jiang Liqian had a demon in her heart? She would rather believe that the Tiangan Sect would be wiped out tomorrow!

[System, are you sure you didn't make a mistake with your hidden mission? Did Jiang Liqian really have a demon?]

The system's emotionless mechanical voice sounded.

[Yes, the system did not issue an error task.]

Shen Qingqing still couldn't believe it.

Who is that?

That’s Jiang Liqian!

In her previous life, she was so arrogant that she could kill her way through the Demonic Abyss seven or eight times with just one sword. In the end, she was hunted down so badly, but she still saved the citizens of the entire city from the demons with her blood and sweat. As a result, she was devoured by the demonic energy and her human form was almost unrecognizable. Even so, she did not develop any demons in her heart.

She has been doing well in this life and is in a very protective group, so how could she possibly have a demon in her heart?

Is it...

A light bulb went off in Shen Qingqing's head, and she seemed to have grasped something.

Her previous test could only confirm that Jiang Liqian had no intention of killing her. She could not be sure whether she was unwilling to kill her out of pity, or was reborn and had no memory of her.

She said she didn't know her... Was she pretending?

She was reborn, and had painful memories from her previous life, so she developed abnormal inner demons?

Yes—that must be it!

Only in this way can everything be explained.

No wonder after her rebirth, Jiang Liqian did not follow the trajectory of her previous life to become the eldest sister of Jianfeng and become a disciple of the headmaster. No wonder she was so cold to her second and third brothers in her previous life. It was not that she was born arrogant and cold, but that she was reborn just like her!

When she suddenly realized this, Shen Qingqing felt cold all over and shivered belatedly!

If she had revealed the slightest sign of rebirth when she was testing her just now, even with the sect rules, she would have been chopped into several pieces by Jiang Liqian by now, right?

Fortunately, fortunately... She had made double preparations in advance, and she had no idea that she was also reborn.

Now she has the initiative!

Shen Qingqing's mind raced as she went over the scene from beginning to end.

There are so many points for hidden missions, she can't just let them go. Now it's really God's blessing on her. Jiang Liqian has developed an inner demon. If she can make her completely crazy, will she still have a place on the righteous path?

Who can stand in her way then?

She just needs to act like a savior, get rid of this big devil, and win people's hearts!

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. Shen Qingqing seemed to have already imagined the grand scene of her being admired by thousands of people and successfully ascending to heaven in broad daylight. If she hadn't had to pretend to faint, she would have wanted to dance and celebrate wildly.

Jiang Liqian, the bright and beautiful senior sister.

You will have this day too, hahahaha...

Jiang Liqian, who had just managed to block the oncoming avalanche with a giant stone talisman, was fighting fiercely with the monster. For some reason, she suddenly felt a chill on her back, and she was so cold that she didn't pay attention to the monster's claws, and was knocked away.

Fortunately, Jinzhu was there to protect her and took the blow for her. Otherwise, with her small body, she would have either fainted or been beaten to death.

But even so, Jiang Liqian still felt that one of her ribs was broken, and the pain made her gasp.

I was so scared that I dared not be distracted again.

Seeing that the mountain-like monster was about to break through the fog of the forbidden area and rush out of the valley, Jiang Liqian endured it, swallowed a healing pill, and flew up again.

She used the blue main bead as a detent, abandoned the defense of the twelve golden beads, transformed it into a hemp rope, and put it over the monster's head, tightly locking one of its big horns.

The Qiankun Heart Method was running rapidly, madly absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy. Jiang Liqian's eyes sank, and she landed steadily on the ground. The formation plate under her feet lit up, and countless purple chains appeared, tightly holding her feet.

Jiang Liqian concentrated, her spiritual energy flowing into her dantian, from which it continued to flow into her arms. She gritted her teeth, gripped the rope tightly, exerted all her strength, and with a loud shout, pulled backwards. Veins bulged from her arms and temples, halting the monster's forward movement.

The force pulling forward and backward almost tore her arm off her body.

Jiang Liqian endured the severe pain. More and more spiritual power gathered in her body, and was consumed faster and faster. For a moment, a small spiritual power vortex was formed with her as the center.

"hold head high!"

"hold head high--!"

Feeling the resistance of the pulling, the monster angrily shook its head left and right, trying to tear the rope that trapped its horns. Its two front hooves raised angrily and stomped down heavily.

There was a loud "bang" and the ground shook. A bottomless crack appeared in an instant, big enough for two or three people to fall into side by side.

The crack extended in both the front and back directions, heading straight towards Jiang Liqian.

Jiang Liqian held her breath and put all her energy into pulling the monster. Although she saw the crack coming, she couldn't move at all and couldn't spare any strength to avoid the crack.

Damn it, why haven’t the people from the Discipline Hall come yet? Why hasn’t that person come either? She…she really can’t hold on any longer!

Big drops of sweat slid down her forehead. She gritted her teeth and sweat soaked half of her clothes.

Seeing that the crack was about to reach her feet, she could smell the dark and damp smell of the ground. In a flash, she had decided that even if she fell, she would hold on to the monster and not let go. But suddenly, a figure in green clothes passed by her, and then she heard a shrill roar from the monster's mouth.
