That's what villains are like

Chapter 48 Little Tail?i will protect you
The Scarlet Plateau was dark, and one after another of the great rift valleys stretched across the land.

In the void, there is still some thin blood-colored mist floating.

Countless monsters rushed out from various areas, the torrent was rolling, stirring up smoke and dust all over the sky, the rocks were rolling, and the mountains were rumbling and trembling.

Chi!
A dazzling sword energy suddenly cut down from the sky like a cold river waterfall.

The void seemed to be frozen. When the sword energy passed by, a large number of monsters were instantly frozen, and then turned into a piece of powder with a crisp sound.

A slender figure dressed in a plain gauze skirt with fluttering sleeves, leaning on a sword across the sky, rushed towards him like a divine rainbow.

All the monsters blocking the way collapsed in front of her with a single blow of the sword, and before they even screamed, they turned into dust all over the sky.

Soon, a path was cleared in front of her.

Li Mengning's body was light and graceful, her posture was ethereal, and there was a hint of worry in her quiet expression.

Countless sword shadows surround the whole body.

Behind her, it was as if there was an ancient sword hole opening, and phantoms of divine swords emerged one after another, and then whizzed past, flying across the world, with amazing sharpness, cutting everything.

She didn't know why such a shocking change had suddenly occurred on the Scarlet Plateau.

I don't know why countless monsters suddenly ran away.

All she knows now is... that disobedient guy is very dangerous at the moment.

hum! ! !
Sword shadows all over the sky whizzed away, the sword light was like a sea, covering the sky and covering the earth, covering hundreds of miles.

Li Mengning's pair of quiet eyes quickly scanned the various areas, and the other slender hand was still holding a well-washed Cistanche lotus.

Suddenly, behind a half-person-high rock not far away, she saw that familiar figure.

He didn't look injured, but his face was much paler than before.

"Jiang Lan..." Her heart finally let go, and it turned into a stream of light, falling beside Jiang Lan.

"Are you here?"

A familiar fragrance wafted from his nose, Jiang Lan glanced at her and asked the question knowingly.

He could clearly feel that Li Mengning seemed a little angry. There was no emotional ups and downs on the face covered by the light veil. Although it was the same in the past, she would not ignore herself like today.

At least if you ask her yourself, she will hum slightly.

However, he was the one who fooled her first, because he didn't have any cultivation before, not to mention going deep into the Scarlet Plateau alone, even this sudden riot of monster beasts could easily kill him.

"Don't be angry, I was wrong."

Jiang Lan smiled, then immediately admitted and apologized, "There will be no next time."

Li Mengning stared closely at his face with her quiet eyes, and then said two words softly, "Liar."

She was indeed a little angry, but it wasn't because Jiang Lan had fooled her.

It was that he knew that he had no cultivation base, but he wanted to forcibly break into the depths of the Scarlet Plateau, making fun of his own life.

"I'm sure, you know, I'm afraid of death, I can't easily take my own life as a joke."

Jiang Lan seemed to know what she was thinking, and said softly, "I don't have much on me, but I have more cards to save my life."

Li Mengning still didn't speak, and looked at him quietly with her clear eyes.

"Okay, next time I take a risk, I won't send you away again."

Jiang Lan felt a little headache.

After saying this, Li Mengning hummed lightly, and then said softly, "There will be a sect coming here soon."

Jiang Lan also understood, that's why she was here waiting for her to come over, but she didn't know how many Territory Breaking Talismans Li Mengning had on her, which was a good thing to escape on the road.

However, it takes a certain amount of strength to activate the Territory Breaking Talisman. Originally, he didn't have any cultivation base, even if he wore the Territory Breaking Talisman, it would be useless, so he didn't have one on him.

It seems that I have to go back and find some at home.

"Let's go..."

Jiang Lan said, then wrapped her arms around Li Mengning's slender waist in a very natural and familiar way, and hugged her tightly.

It's not that he deliberately took advantage of it.

It's just that without the talisman light cover of the domain-breaking talisman, with his current physical strength, he can't bear it even if he travels through the void, and will be blown apart by the strong wind.

The movement on the Scarlet Plateau was so loud, but no one could suspect him.

Li Mengning lightly pursed her red lips, her sparkling and flawless ears were stained with wisps of red.

Then, the void in front of my eyes trembled slightly, blurred ripples spread, and the figures of the two disappeared quickly.

On the way, Jiang Lan smelled a trace of blood, but was a little surprised. It was not the stinky blood of monsters, but a strange fragrance.

"Are you hurt?" he asked.

The monster guarding the Nine Yin Cistanche Lotus should not be Li Mengning's opponent.

"There are two ends." Li Mengning replied.

She slaughtered two demon beasts at the demon king level. Although she was slightly injured, her strength is indeed terrifying.

Young Tianjiao of the same generation, at this time, there are probably very few who can block her sword.

In the original plot, if he hadn't been delayed by himself, and his heart hadn't been hurt by his own death later on, it wouldn't have been easy for the protagonist Lin Fan to overtake her quickly.

This guy is not only talented, but also very hardworking. When he disappears on weekdays, he is always practicing.

"The thousand-year-old Nine Yin Cistanche Lotus is a rare treasure for you who practice Taishang Xuanyou Gong. After you refine it, your strength should improve a lot," Jiang Lan said.

"You don't want it?" Li Mengning was a little puzzled.

Jiang Lan smiled and said, "What's the use of me wanting it? I'm a useless person who can't cultivate. It's just a waste of such natural talents and earthly treasures on me."

Li Mengning was stunned, looked straight at him with Qingyou eyes, and then said seriously, "You are not a useless person..."

In her heart, Jiang Lan has never been a useless person, no matter before or now.

"Go back, try taking Jiuyin Cistanche lotus." She whispered again.

Jiang Lan felt that this quasi-saint was really stubborn.

He sighed helplessly, and said, "The Nine Yin Cistanche Lotus is for you to pick and refine by yourself, and I still count on you to protect me. Your strength is no longer stronger. If you encounter someone stronger than that Lin Fan is a stronger assassin, who will protect me?"

"Uncle Ying can't follow me every step of the way. I can't even shake your little tail."

Hearing Jiang Lan call herself Little Tail, Li Mengning was slightly stunned.

It seems that I am really like his tail, wherever he goes, I follow him, does he not like himself like this?

"What I mean is, from now on, I can only rely on you to protect me, so you have to become stronger."

Jiang Lan knew that she must have misunderstood, so after thinking about it, she changed her words.

Otherwise, with the melon seeds of this guy's head, he doesn't know how long he will go around.

"Um……"

"I...I will protect you."

Li Mengning's head was still a little dazed, and Jiang Lan's words from now on...

"Ok?"

Noticing that Li Mengning in her arms suddenly seemed to be strange, Jiang Lan couldn't help being surprised.

"You...you hug me too tightly..."

Li Mengning whispered, "I... suddenly feel a little out of breath."

When the two returned to Yuyi City in Jiangling County, it was already the evening of the next day, the evening was sinking, and the sunset was as gorgeous as a maple.
