"Did you recognize the wrong person?" Lin Jie asked suspiciously.

Having seen a powerful witch like Bai Yin a long time ago, Lin Jie was not too nervous when he came into contact with an existence of the same level.

Although he is just a bookstore owner, Lin Jie is someone who has seen the big world. He stopped the terrorist attack on the Road of Fire Sword and helped to establish the current number one Sun God Sect. There is also a big man from the former police station in the store...

So Lin Jie was not flustered when faced with the somewhat unfriendly attitude of the Life Witch, but was a little surprised.

"Admit your mistake?"

The Life Witch narrowed her eyes slightly, the situation was a bit different from what she had imagined.

Seeing the increasingly dangerous and fierce aura of life, Lin Jie felt that not all witches were as beautiful and kind as Bai Yin.

The life witch in front of her has only half of her face, and the other half is full of scales. Her body is almost made of flames. These flames flow on her body like magma, exuding high temperature like a cloak, as if they may kill the surrounding people at any time. Bookshelves burned.

No matter how you look at it, it's scary, right?

"Yes." Lin Jie nodded cautiously: "You have identified the wrong person."

Life was a little hesitant, as if the person in front of her was indeed a human being. Although the smell was mixed with evil and disgusting, the essence seemed... She looked around, and the endless bookshelves were full of permanent and familiar darkness. The whole bookstore seems to be an endless black hole.

Do not! He's talking sweet words! Thousands of years ago, she was engulfed by "darkness" and fell. She thought she could escape, left the coordinates, and waited for the instructions of fate to be resurrected, but she did not expect that today, thousands of years later, she would actually be revived in the belly of the evil god.

Seeing that the witch stopped talking, Lin Jie seemed to have calmed down a bit and could talk.

Lin Jie cleared his throat and said, "My name is Lin Jie, and I'm an ordinary bookstore owner, but I was lucky enough to get in touch with Bai Yin before, and learned a lot from her. You should also know her, right?"

Lin Jie talked about his identity to himself, but the life witch seemed to see the darker place behind him through his current identity.

His shadow continued to expand, magnified infinitely in his rambling lines, and finally became an endless dark cave. It was not a terrifying monster, nor a powerful force. It was just pure darkness, and this darkness seemed to be able to swallow everything.

The universe, the starry sky, everything, life... will be swallowed by it.

And this is what the life witch fears the most. Her face is already half human and half beast. Now, in the flames, her entire face is distorted.

The Life Witch closed her eyes, and her red pupils, which were like flames, were covered. She hoped to resist this powerful and trembling fear by falling into the darkness she created.

"So..." Lin Jie explained his identity seriously, but he saw the life witch closed her eyes.

Lin Jie frowned, only to realize that the witch wasn't listening to him at all, and because the flames on her body were now burning high, it had gradually spread.

The first thing Lin Jie worried about was the books on the nearby bookshelf, a trace of anger welled up in his heart, but he still politely said: "Wait, can you put away your flame?"

Before and now, he can tolerate others being rude to him, and he can also forgive reckless behavior, but if someone wants to destroy his book, then he will really be angry...

The witch closed her eyes tightly, and said in a low voice: "I won't mistake anyone, but I won't mistake you. I was born to be your enemy. If you want me to take the initiative to extinguish this flame, don't think about it!"

I don't know how many years have passed. She once set up a bonfire to light up the world. In the endless darkness, if she didn't pay attention, she would be swallowed and raised countless human beings just to gain a sense of security.

"Whether it was or is now, I will always light the fire, and the fire will burn more and more until it consumes all your evil lairs!"

She opened her eyes suddenly, and the flame spread out like wings, turned into a raging flame that swept everything, and rushed towards Lin Jie.

Lin Jie subconsciously wanted to use the ether stored in his dream space to protect those books, but he forgot to dodge.

next moment.

The huge black shadow that had been entrenched behind him suddenly expanded...

Tear--

Lin Jie opened his eyes wide and looked at everything in front of him. His own shadow turned into a black mysterious substance, which began to gradually distort and transform into countless tentacles. Seconds tore her apart.

The red flames were like flowing blood, splashing out like hot lava. In an instant, the witch's face was distorted in pain, and her limbs were instantly broken and torn apart.

But Lin Jie's first thought was...whether the blood or flame is too hot, will it burn the floor and bookshelf?

It was also when this idea appeared that the floor except for the place where I stepped on it turned into a deep black hole, and the witch's blood was swallowed up and evaporated before it even hit the floor.

"what--!"

The witch uttered the last cry of her life. This time she could no longer escape, and she could no longer arrange her own coordinates like thousands of years ago.

Perhaps, this darkness has been waiting for him for thousands of years, or in other words, the history of thousands of years does not exist for him, and time cannot wear him down. He has already seen everything and is waiting for this moment.

The witch's head was crushed by the black tentacles, and the eyeballs on the half of the human face rolled down to Lin Jie's feet. Lin Jie lowered his head and looked at the witch, and the witch's eyeballs seemed to be still staring at him.

Seriously, it looks kind of scary...

This idea slowly came to Lin Jie's mind, and then his eyeballs were eaten by the darkness.

In the blink of an eye, the witch was completely devoured, and the flame of life that blessed the human race from ancient times was completely extinguished.

After eating the witch, the darkness that swelled just now began to shrink slowly, turning into a human-shaped shadow, standing in front of Lin Jie.

Lin Jie looked around, it seemed that what happened just now had never happened, even the books on the counter hadn't changed at all.

"Xiao Hei, did you...eat your life?" Lin Jie smacked his lips and asked in surprise.

Xiao Hei didn't answer, just looked at Lin Jie like a ghost, but Lin Jie already knew the answer.

Maybe, the witch didn't misidentify the person just now, but the person she feared was not Lin Jie, but Xiao Hei behind Lin Jie... In this way, the witch was really wronged.

And the reason why Xiao Hei took this life coordinate is because he really wants to eat the life witch, and if he doesn't eat the stone tablet directly, he might want the whole thing to be fresh...

In the legend of the life witch, there have always been stories of using bonfires to resist darkness, and that darkness may be the evil god that destroyed the ancient elf kingdom and drove all creatures into madness.

Could it be that Xiao Hei is that evil god?

Lin Jie's expression suddenly became complicated.

But Xiao Hei never harmed him, and even helped him achieve many small things that could have been ignored. From time travel to now, it has always been on Lin Jie's side, just now...

Lin Jie looked at Xiao Hei, and wanted to ask him if you were a bad person, but felt that his question was a bit naive.

Maybe there is no justice or evil in this world. Lin Jie thinks he is kind. From birth to now, he has helped countless people, and he is no less inferior than Vincent. Every customer who comes to this bookstore, Regardless of whether he is down or out, he does his best to enlighten and save each other.

Lin Jie is a good person, and no one who knows him will refute this matter.

But just now, Life just attacked him indiscriminately, trying to...kill him.

Which is right and which is wrong?

He looked at the round "wedge" again, which had lost its light and turned into an ordinary broken stone.

Without Xiao Hei, he would have died.

"Thank you, Xiao Hei, for saving me just now."
