Chapter 162 There is no more great master in the world

"You, you dare to kill me?"

The Grand Master tried hard to appear arrogant. She opened her arms and the strong wind in the air made her hair and clothes flutter.

"If you dare to kill the great master respected by the world in public, you should know the consequences. Xu Shanshan, are you planning to make an enemy of the entire Jing Kingdom?"

She thought that by saying this, Xu Shanshan would be cautious and even if he wanted to deal with her, he would not do it in broad daylight.

But obviously she guessed wrong.

It's not just her, either.

Who in this world can accurately guess what Xu Shanshan is thinking?

almost none.

She is like a complex of secrets, contradictions and wisdom.

Common sense inferences and thoughts never work for her.

Xu Shanshan had a pair of bottomless eyes, dark waves surging but silent. She looked at the Grand Master and asked her, "Do you think you were able to escape death last time because of luck... or was it because of luck?"

Without waiting for the Grand Master to answer, she gently shook her head again: "Actually, neither of them."

.

What does she mean by that?
Clenching his sweaty palms, the Grand Master at this moment actually felt a sense of endless secrets hidden in Xu Shanshan that had been buried deep in the years, and finally revealed some clues.

There was an unfathomable light flashing in her eyes, which attracted every thought of the Grand Master, and he couldn't help but want to explore the deeper meaning hidden behind it.

"I let you continue to be the Grand Master just to kill him."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Grand Master's heart seemed to skip a few beats and his breathing stagnated at this moment.

Xu Shanshan continued, "Because I want there to be no more great masters in this world—"

As if he saw the most secret and illusory side of her being completely revealed, the Grand Master's eyes widened with disbelief.

At the same time, fear was like a cold poisonous snake, slowly crawling up her back, making her tremble uncontrollably.

"No, it's impossible. Why would you want to kill me... Did you do all this on purpose? Did you do all this just to get rid of the title of Grand Master? But why..."

She couldn't understand.

But she dreams of continuing to be the grand master.

Living on top of the clouds, everyone has to look up to her. She can easily influence the prosperity of a country, and even the king of a country has to consult her on state affairs.

"Isn't it good to be a great master? You are above ten thousand people, admired by everyone, and you can even be immortal and have everything that others dream of."

When the Grand Master thought of herself as "Xu Shanshan", she often hated her own mediocrity. She longed to become a person like her master who could call the wind and rain and had omnipotent powers.

Then she will get everything she wants, everything she doesn't like will disappear, and everyone will surrender to her feet.

But her greatest imagination of her abilities was to marry into a powerful family chosen by her master, but she never knew that one day she could become the object of someone's dependence.

Becoming a great national master was like her dream coming true. She was reborn and got everything she had ever dreamed of.

But now, all this seemed to have turned into a huge joke, mocking and ridiculing her wishful thinking.

She is still the same Xu Shanshan.

Even if she had a body that was invincible, even if she had learned all the techniques from the great master's memory, and had cheated with this perfect body to gain a period of glory... but what was not hers would eventually have to be paid back, including the "debt" she owed due to her greed and vanity...

It was obvious that the Grand Master did not understand Xu Shanshan's thoughts, and Xu Shanshan did not care whether she understood or not.

“I just want to be myself.”

After Xu Shanshan said this, she ended all the topics. Suddenly, there was a terrifying sense of oppression about her, and the dangerous aura seemed to be able to freeze the air around her.

A bright lightning sword struck down from the sky, and an intense white light illuminated the surroundings. Every cell in the Grand Master's body was screaming, urging her to escape, but the next second the "Four Symbols" were dispatched.

The White Tiger leaped up and cut off her retreat, the Azure Dragon spurted out cold frost and ice, piercing through the wings behind her, and the Black Tortoise formed a barrier with its carapace—

The whole body of the Grand Master was like being stuck in the air in a spider web, unable to move freely. She wanted to fight back, but her hands were twisted by the Vermillion Bird Fire Feathers on Xu Shanshan's back.

"Uh-"

Pain swept through her body and her lips lost all color.

The Grand Master is still unable to complete the spell with her mind, she must use hand gestures to activate the talisman, but without her hands, she is useless.

"From now on, Jingguo... no longer needs a temple or a great national master."

Xu Shanshan merged the four symbols, and their Dharma images disappeared. The power of the city defense array set up that year was also gathered here, and it turned into a golden "needle" with countless tiny and subtle golden spiritual patterns entwined in it.

The "golden needle" circled around Xu Shanshan's body and then stabbed towards the Grand Master. It went straight through her dantian, and the Grand Master let out a scream that resounded through the world.

She opened her eyes wide, her face filled with pain, and the sky suddenly lost all its color. Shock engulfed the great master like a surging tide.

The Grand Master was losing weight and falling continuously. She could feel the strength in her body was draining away like a torrent. Suddenly, a hidden arrow shot out unexpectedly and pierced directly through her chest.

She opened her mouth hoarsely, gasping in pain, and with a glance, she saw a scene that broke her heart.

It turned out that it was Xie Yujin who was drawing the bow and shooting the arrow.

Bang—she fell heavily to the ground, blood gushing out of her mouth, almost staining her entire face red.

"Why……"

The tightly pursed lips were trembling slightly and madly, as if he was trying hard to suppress the grief that was about to burst.

why?
"Shanshan, do you regret it?"

A sound like a gentle breeze sounded, and that sound was like the whisper of nature, whispering softly when the wind blew.

The Grand Master seemed to be waking up from the dead. Her empty and painful eyes gradually gathered a hint of expression: "...Master?"

"I asked you that day, if you continue to be the Grand Master, you will die a violent death in the future. Now I ask you again, do you regret this choice?"

"Master, I'm stupid... and bad... I know... I'll never amount to anything in my life... I know... but before I die, I can live as I please... as I please... even if I die tragically... it's worth it..."

The reason why she took over the magpie's nest as the Grand Master was because she didn't want to live her whole life being despised and hated by others.

She longs for success and to be the center of attention.

But she has ambitions but lacks the ability and longevity to realize them.

Although her time as the Grand Master was still short, she was very satisfied because she knew that with her abilities, she would never be able to reach such a height in her lifetime.

If she had another chance to choose, she would still become the Grand Master, and not Xu Shanshan, who was destined to live past the age of sixteen.
