After being reborn, the cannon fodder junior sister quickly left the sect.

Chapter 198 Su Luo is angry

Su Luo suddenly felt that the boy in front of her was completely unfamiliar.

Why did Lin Ji use a magical artifact to monitor her?

Would an ordinary person want to spy on others? That's so strange, so very strange!

Having lived this long, she had never encountered anyone who wanted to monitor her constantly! Wait… there was one! But that person was a madman! How could Lin Ji be just like that person?!

And... the eyes of the giant crystal python!

How could Lin Ji have the eyes of a giant crystal python?

She remembered encountering a giant crystal python in Nanshan, and that python happened to be missing its eyes. Isn't that a bit too much of a coincidence?

Could it be... that Lin Ji also went to Nanshan?

No! Impossible!

The Demon Lord, that madman, was hiding there back then. If Lin Ji had really gone there, the Demon Lord would never have let him go so easily! Perhaps... these eyes were something Lin Ji obtained from elsewhere...

In that instant, Su Luo thought of many random things, her mind a complete mess.

Lin Ji didn't know what Su Luo was thinking, but he sensed that Su Luo was indeed angry. So Lin Ji lowered his eyes, put on a pitiful expression, and reached out to pull her, intending to find a way to get away with it.

"Su Luo, let me explain. I... I had my reasons for doing this..."

Su Luo subconsciously took a step back to avoid the boy's hand, then raised her hand to rub her temples, looking at Lin Ji with an extremely complicated expression.

Now, it's no longer important where Lin Ji got the eyes of the magic crystal python; what's important is... why is Lin Ji spying on her?

The thought that she was being closely watched without her knowledge sent chills down Su Luo's spine.

Seemingly not expecting Su Luo to avoid him, Lin Ji's hand froze in mid-air. He stared blankly at Su Luo, noticing the girl's wary expression and even a hint of suspicion in her eyes, and slowly felt a chill run through his body.

Su Luo is actually avoiding him?!

Lin Ji panicked, "Su Luo, it's not what you think... I... I had my reasons for doing this..."

In the past, Su Luo would have softened upon seeing Lin Ji's pitiful expression, but now, she found it utterly ridiculous.

She had always thought Lin Ji was weak, pitiful, and helpless! What kind of pitiful person would silently spy on someone? You can know a person's face but not their heart; she was the one who was truly pitiful, kept in the dark by Lin Ji all along!

"Since you say there's a reason for all this, then explain yourself. Why did you send me a surveillance camera?"

"That wasn't surveillance!"

Seeing Su Luo's expression grow colder and colder, Lin Ji blurted out excitedly, "I was just worried about your safety! I was about to leave the island and didn't know when I would be able to come back, so I was very worried! I was worried about you! I was afraid that you would get hurt where I couldn't see you! So... that's why I gave you the blood-red jade bracelet..."

"Then why don't you tell me the true purpose of the Blood Jade Bracelet?"

“I’m worried that if I tell you the true purpose of the blood jade bracelet, you’ll be scared and then stay away from me…”

This reason does sound quite reasonable, but...

Su Luo was very disappointed.

If Lin Ji had written everything down in the letter from the beginning, expressing his concerns, even if she might have hesitated at the time, she would have eventually put on the Blood Jade Bracelet!

But Lin Ji didn't! Lin Ji betrayed her trust!

Thinking of this, Su Luo's eyes turned as cold as ice. "If you gave me that magic artifact because you were worried about me, I can understand. But Lin Ji, you deliberately concealed the true purpose of the Blood Jade Bracelet, only telling me that it was a protective magic artifact, but not telling me about its other uses. Then, you secretly monitored me without my knowledge, knowing exactly what I did and said... Your behavior frightens me even more."

Lin Ji's expression went blank for a moment.

Su Luo continued, "This behavior is abnormal. Lin Ji, no one is happy to be monitored for a long time. This is too strange... I can't accept it. So, please don't come near me for now. I don't want to talk to you for the time being. Also, here's yours back. I don't need it."

After saying that, Su Luo took off the blood jade bracelet from her wrist, handed it to Lin Ji, and then turned to walk to the bookshelf.

Su Luo was having a splitting headache, so she went to choose some books to distract herself.

Lin Ji stared blankly at the blood jade bracelet in his hand, his pupils suddenly contracted, and then his eyes uncontrollably reddened.

Su Luo refused his gifts and wouldn't let him near her! She didn't want him anymore!

The scene fell into dead silence.

Chu Wenqing and the other two looked at each other, unsure of what to do after seeing the two had broken up.

Just then, the Book Spirit suddenly spoke up, yawning, "That's it? Su Luo, your reaction is so boring."

Shuling thought the two of them were going to have a big fight!

These words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Lin Ji suddenly looked up, glaring at Shu Ling through gritted teeth. His dark eyes were calm, yet exuded a chilling coldness.

It's all that guy's fault! If she hadn't suddenly taken Su Luo away, he would never have used the Blood Jade Bracelet so easily! If she hadn't been so nosy and insisted on telling Su Luo the true purpose of the Blood Jade Bracelet, Su Luo wouldn't be so angry!!

It's all this damn guy's fault!

Lin Ji's gaze was terrifying, and Shu Ling could naturally sense it, but she nonchalantly curled her lips into a smile, "Don't look at me like that. The way you're looking at me right now is like you want to kill me."

"You...damn it!"

The next moment, Lin Ji, using some unknown technique, appeared beside Shu Ling at a speed invisible to the naked eye, grabbed her by the neck, and lifted her up.

"cough……"

Shuling was being choked and couldn't breathe, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She never imagined that one day she would be choked by a human cultivator! She had been careless!

The book spirit instinctively tried to cast a spell to attack Lin Ji, but Lin Ji suddenly let go and then forcefully flung the book spirit away, causing it to crash heavily onto the bookshelf.

"boom!"

The bookshelf crashed to the ground, and the books tumbled down with a clatter.

"you wanna die!"

The book spirit climbed out of the pile of books, touched her neck, and then her aura suddenly changed. She then charged straight at Lin Ji, and the two began to fight.

It all happened so fast, in just a few breaths, that by the time everyone realized what was happening, it was too late to stop it.

"boom!"

"Wow!"

Soon, all the bookshelves and books in the library were completely destroyed by them.

Su Luo was heartbroken and angrily shouted at them, "Stop fighting! Stop it! Stop right now!"

The man and the spirit seemed oblivious to each other, and the battle became increasingly intense. Eventually, Lin Ji even subtly suppressed the book spirit.

Beneath the veil, the Book Spirit's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.

This young man is clearly only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, so why is he able to subtly suppress her?! Her cultivation level is equivalent to the late-Golden Core stage!!

Chu Wenqing and the other two were dumbfounded.

Lin Ji is so amazing!

Seeing the surrounding bookshelves collapse, Su Luo felt her blood rush to her head and shouted, threatening, "Lin Ji, if you continue to attack me or disobey me, I will never forgive you again!"

"And the book spirits! Do you still want those books? If you do, stop right now! Otherwise, I'll burn them all!"

Upon hearing this, both the human and the spirit froze, immediately ceasing their fighting. When they turned around, they saw Su Luo glaring at them with eyes blazing with fury, clearly enraged.

Immediately afterwards, Su Luo took out three books with her left hand and a flint with her right hand, pretending to burn the books.

The book spirit sensed something was wrong and, ignoring her injuries, hurriedly said, "No! I want those books! I want them! I won't fight anymore! Just don't burn them!"

Sure enough, in the eyes of the storyteller, knowledge is the greatest thing in the world!

Su Luo paused, making sure the book spirit was really not going to fight anymore, before tossing the book to the spirit and waving her hand, "Alright, here's the book, go read it over there."

"no problem."

Shuling quickly took the three books, not even glancing at Lin Ji, and happily carried them to a corner to read.

As for Lin Ji...

He hadn't spoken since the beginning, but instead held his hand, which had been injured by the Book Spirit, and silently stared at Su Luo, putting on a pitiful look.

Looking at the messy and tattered books on the ground, Su Luo felt a pang of heartache and didn't even bother to glance at Lin Ji.

What a spendthrift! These books are treasures, and he's made a complete mess of them!

Seeing that Su Luo wouldn't even look at him, Lin Ji moved his lips, but before he could say anything, tears fell down his face.

“Su Luo…”

It was Chu Wenqing who spotted it first, noticing the blood gushing from Lin Ji's hand. She exclaimed in alarm, "Lin Ji, you're injured!"

Su Luo stiffened, instinctively wanting to look, but remembering Lin Ji's actions, she ultimately didn't turn around.

Lin Ji's face was frighteningly pale, and his dark eyes lost their luster.

He deliberately slowed down a beat, allowing the book spirit to injure him, but even though he was injured, Su Luo wouldn't even glance at him...

Chu Wenqing was heartbroken and rushed over to heal Lin Ji's injuries, but Lin Ji dodged him and wouldn't let him touch him. He just stared at Su Luo with a pale face and a pitiful tone.

"Su Luo, it hurts so much..."

Su Luo's eyelashes trembled slightly, her heart aching with bitterness, but she still didn't respond.

This time, she absolutely cannot forgive Lin Ji so easily, otherwise he will do it again in the future!

Thinking of this, Su Luo lowered her eyes, her peripheral vision quickly sweeping over Lin Ji's injured and bleeding hand. She pursed her lips, then squatted down and picked up the tattered books one by one, playing the part of someone with a heart of stone.

Seeing that Su Luo would rather look at those tattered books than glance at him, Lin Ji's eyes turned red, tears streaming down his face, his fists clenched so tightly that the blood on his hands flowed even more profusely.

In an instant, a flash of red light appeared in Lin Ji's dark eyes.
