Peerless Allure: Nine Series Summoner

Chapter 315 The Origin of the Sense of Crisis

Sensing that the aura here could actually affect her mind and emotions, Ling Lan couldn't help but secretly raised her vigilance.

In her previous life, she was a professional killer who had never missed a shot. After coming to Longyue Continent, she became a summoner with a high level of cultivation, which meant that she had already reached the state of being calm in the face of danger, and her mind is as calm as water.

If Ling Lan couldn't even do the most basic meditation, she wouldn't be able to reach her current height.

Feeling that something was wrong here, Ling Lan tensed her nerves and put her whole body into a state of alert, in case danger suddenly appeared.

Calculated according to the frequency of danger encountered along the way, it is really abnormal for most of the day like today to have no wind or waves.

Both sides of the path were overgrown with thorns, Ling Lan had to be careful to avoid those thorny branches and leaves.

After all, the blue branches and leaves looked like they were highly poisonous, Ling Lan didn't want to die on the way.

As she groped forward, she tried hard to penetrate the dense thorn bushes as tall as a person and see the scenery behind.

A bad feeling was slowly ravaging Ling Lan's heart, so much so that she desperately wanted to know what danger was waiting for her ahead.

After walking through the most lush thorns, Ling Lan finally came to an open area.

This is a small swamp, and the end can be seen at a glance.On the other side of the swamp, those strange blue thorns also grow.

Upon closer inspection, each thorn grass is like a lifeless puppet, connected by invisible thin threads, inextricably linked.

But when Ling Lan unleashed his mental power to investigate, this feeling of something wrong disappeared in an instant.

A thin mist rises from the swamp, floats into the air, spreads out a little bit, and finally covers the entire area, blocking the sight of intruders.

The muddy water on the ground was bubbling and bubbling, as if some kind of creature was breathing under the surface of the water.

Ling Lan quickly looked at the surrounding scenery, only to feel that this place was very strange.What's abnormal is not just those strange blue plants, the smell here also makes people want to escape.

Depressed, lifeless, full of the smell of death... Never before has the magnetic field anywhere made Ling Lan feel so uncomfortable.

The fog above the swamp was rapidly thickening at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it took only a few seconds to completely block Ling Lan's sight.

The dense fog in front of him was like a solid wall, blocking Ling Lan's way forward.

Ling Lan's intuition was not good, and she turned around to leave, but found that the narrow path she came on had been covered by dense thorn bushes and disappeared.

When did all this happen, Ling Lan didn't realize it.

When she turned around, Ling Lan realized that there were only five mystic masters following her.These five people were wearing uniform black clothing, and it was unknown which organization they were from.

Ling Lan was about to talk to them, but saw these people showing strange smiles at the same time.The slightly upward arc of the corner of the mouth all showed the triumph of the conspiracy.

Alarm bells rang in Ling Lan's heart, she finally figured it out!

——It turned out that what made her feel uneasy all the time was not the poisonous-looking blue thorns, nor the thick fog floating on the swamp, but these five people who followed her silently all the time!
Ling Lan couldn't help feeling annoyed secretly, she should have noticed that there was something wrong with these people long ago!Back when they were trapped in Crescent Lake, compared with those ordinary mystic masters, these people seemed very out of place.

But Ling Lan was too eager to crack the mechanism, so she ignored this point.Even when these people followed Ling Lan all the way, she didn't realize that they were the real danger hidden!

"Who the hell are you!?"

Ling Lan asked loudly, her hand was already on the hilt of Sun Hong's sword, and she was ready to strike at any time.

A gust of cool wind blew by, the fog wall behind her stood still, and Ling Lan's long hair fluttered in the air, adding a bit of chill to her delicate face.

The smiles on the faces of those people became even weirder. Obviously, they didn't intend to answer Ling Lan's question.

Sharp weapons appeared out of nowhere in the hands of these people, and they pointed the blades in their hands at Ling Lan's vitals, and launched an attack together.

Ling Lan didn't flinch, the sun-red sword on her waist was unsheathed, and went forward to meet the enemy.The sharp sword energy turned into a dazzling rainbow light, split through the thick fog, and went straight to the throat of the man in black.

The long sword in the man in black's hand flashed in the air, easily defusing Ling Lan's attack.

Until now, seeing these people's strange movements with her own eyes, Ling Lan finally recalled where the inexplicable sense of familiarity when she first saw these five people in Yue Ya Tan came from.

——They are the same group of Xuanzun masters who intercepted and killed her in the mountains and forests!They are all assassins of Assassins!
Ling Lan originally thought that these people came after her, after all, she had been poisoned by these people before.

However, thinking of the places where these people appeared, Ling Lan had a bold guess in her heart—maybe, the original target of these people was not her, but Ling Yi!

As for why Ling Lan met these people in Yueyatan... maybe they were thrown away by Ling Yi during the process of chasing and killing Ling Yi, and they were trapped in Yueyatan again.

Or maybe, these people were waiting in Crescent Lake, waiting for Ling Yi to appear, but Ling Lan bumped into their guns first.

Thinking of Rong Jin's anxiety when he mentioned Assassin Star, Ling Lan couldn't help but sink a little: It can only be said that the road to Encounter is narrow, and you can also meet in this kind of place.

The last time she was hunted down, fortunately Rong Jin came to the rescue in time, so she was able to escape.This time, she can only rely on herself...

The split fog wall quickly closed, blocking Ling Lan's sight, so she could only rely on hearing and touch to perceive the enemy's movement, and judge their position through the friction of wind and air.

This obviously increased the difficulty for Ling Lan to face the enemy.You know, the cultivation base of those five people is above hers, but now she not only can't concentrate on dealing with the enemy, but also has to concentrate on listening to the sound and distinguishing the position.

A cold light flashed in front of his eyes, Ling Lan managed to avoid it, but was still cut off a strand of long hair at the temple.The man in black who suddenly appeared from the fog wall gave her a strange smile, and then quickly disappeared.

Ling Lan swung the sun red sword to fight back, but the sword energy was absorbed by the fog wall, like a punch on cotton.

In the blink of an eye, another man in black appeared beside Ling Lan silently, piercing her left arm with a sword.

Blood gushed out, staining Ling Lan's snow-white clothes red.There were bursts of severe pain, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat.
