CHAPTER 39: CHAPTER 39: THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE FU TIAN PILL

Ghost Claw plunged into Xin Lin’s body at the position of the Life Gate, which was fatal. The man saw it clearly; the little one stopped breathing on the spot.

He had checked: Xin Lin had no breath or pulse, her death was certain.

Had it not been for a last-minute realization that the Spiritual Power in Xin Lin’s body had not dissipated, he would have been completely deceived.

What infuriated the man most was that he couldn’t find the Fu Tian Pill inside Xin Lin’s body.

Where on earth had she hidden the Fu Tian Pill?

Realizing her ruse had been discovered, Xin Lin no longer feigned death and got up.

The stab that had just occurred looked deadly, but in reality, it was a clever trick played by Xin Lin.

In her 99th life as the Female Soldier King, Xin Lin survived countless brushes with death in bloody battles, once even after being shot in the heart, miraculously continuing to live.

That was when she discovered her heart was a few inches off-center compared to others.

After inexplicably becoming Longteng Xinlin, she examined "her" body and found that, like herself, the heart was off-center.

At death’s door, she resorted to a harsh decision, cutting herself off from air to fake death, all to escape from the tiger’s mouth by deception.

She thought she had succeeded, but unknown to her due to the influence of the Heaven-defying Book, the fluctuation of Spiritual Power in her body became abnormal and was detected by the perceptive man.

Behind the man, the headless Ah Piao was entangled firmly by a black Jiao Long.

The headless Ah Piao had woken up and was both excited and panicky upon seeing Xin Lin.

"Run quickly, don’t worry about me, I won’t live long anyway."

Ah Piao’s soul had grown more indistinct than before and seemed like it could vanish at any moment.

"The same words twice; aren’t you tired of repeating them? I didn’t leave you behind before, and I won’t now."

Xin Lin pat her chest, looking righteously self-sacrificing.

What a joke, the first time she ran, she encountered people from the Xuantian Sect; running would have been futile.

This time, with the Heaven-defying Book in her hand, she feared no Rascal Corpse.

When Xin Lin awoke, she thought everything she saw about the Heaven-defying Book was just a dream until she found an extra piece of talisman paper in her hand, as if by a miracle.

There could be no mistake; it was an immortal treasure that came as a part of the Heaven-defying Book after she became its life master, a Sealing Spirit Talisman.

Rascal Corpse, Rascal Corpse, your end is nigh! Wait and see if I don’t seal you away forever, never to transcend.

Xin Lin clenched the Sealing Spirit Talisman, feeling secretly thrilled inside.

The headless Ah Piao was deeply moved by Xin Lin, and started to cry.

"Corpse King, you are a great and forgiving being, please spare her. You’ve searched her thoroughly, and she doesn’t have the Fu Tian Pill on her."

When the headless Ah Piao woke up and found Xin Lin killed by the Corpse King, it cried out in fright.

After searching and failing to find the Fu Tian Pill, the Corpse King wanted to interrogate Xin Lin but also feared she would die from too much blood loss without revealing the whereabouts of the Fu Tian Pill, so he healed her wounds.

"!!!"

There’s no Fu Tian Pill in her body?

How could that be?

Xin Lin felt something was off upon hearing this.

Mistaken as it was, the Fu Tian Pill had indeed been swallowed by her.

It was also because of the Fu Tian Pill that she was able to use True Qi; that thing was in her belly... Xin Lin suddenly shuddered, something was wrong – the cool sensation in her abdomen had disappeared since she woke up.

The last time Xin Lin felt that cool sensation was right before she obtained the Heaven-defying Book.

After the appearance of the Heaven-defying Book, that cool sensation disappeared.

Could it be that the thing had been absorbed by the Heaven-defying Book?
