Chapter 544 Showdown!

Song Wanning looked at his still slightly reddened eyes and nodded.

"That soul is possessed by someone from another world, so there might be trouble in dealing with it. Perhaps I can lend you a hand."

If she hadn't gotten involved, Jiang Wentian might not have been able to finish off Jiang Cen, and might have even found himself in danger.

So she still mentioned it.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wentian clenched his fists again.

"I must avenge my daughter with my own hands!"

All he cares about now is avenging his daughter; his own safety is not important.

Only by dying at his hands could Jiang Cen's hatred disappear.

After saying that, he strode away and quickly disappeared into the night.

Song Wan gazed at his retreating figure, waited a moment, and then caught up with him.

She couldn't allow any accidents to happen; she had to see the intruder fall before she could feel at ease!

The little ones were unusually quiet tonight, not saying a word, as if they all realized the importance of the matter.

……

On the other side, Jiang Cen was still gloating over her escape. To prevent Jiang Wentian from discovering her, she didn't take many things and tried her best to isolate herself from other people's perception.

So, she is very excited right now.

I feel like I'm about to embark on a new chapter in my life.

After all, she's the one who holds the script; she can absolutely rule this world.

However, at that moment, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine, and a coldness shot from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

She was then horrified to find herself frozen in place, completely unable to move.

What's going on here?
A look of fear flashed across Jiang Cen's face, and his eyes darted around, searching for the person behind him.

But everything around was quiet, and apart from the force that landed on him, there was nothing unusual.

She panicked even more and shouted into the void, "Who is it? Who is hiding in the shadows?"

"If you're so capable, come out here. What kind of hero hides in the shadows?"

She appeared fierce on the outside but was actually quite weak inside, yet the hairs on her body stood on end.

Just as she was beginning to lose her composure, a figure sped down from the sky and appeared instantly a few hundred meters away from her.

Jiang Cen's heart sank, thinking that he was doomed.

But when he looked up in the moonlight, he found that the person who came was Jiang Wentian. Instantly, his worries turned into joy, and all his fears disappeared.

Jiang Wentian is a Nascent Soul cultivator; with him around, I will definitely be safe.

So she immediately pouted and put on a pitiful look.

"Father, I wanted to come out to find you, but as soon as I got here, I was frozen in place by a force!"

"I don't know who did it, you have to avenge me!"

Jiang Cen looked at Jiang Wentian with teary eyes, waiting for him to protect her as usual.

But Jiang Wentian just stared at her quietly, without moving.

That look made Jiang Cen feel uneasy and somewhat flustered.

"Dad, why aren't you saying anything? Are you angry?"

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have disobeyed you, but now that you're gone, I feel a little scared."

"I'll never do it again..."

Jiang Cen's voice grew softer and softer until it could no longer be heard.

Jiang Wentian is acting so strangely today!!!
Jiang Cen, who was already feeling a little guilty, instantly changed his expression and wished he could run away right now.

However, Song Wanning's figure appeared not far away.

Her pupils contracted sharply, and a murderous glint flashed in her eyes.

"Why are you here?"

Jiang Cen put his fear aside and loudly questioned Song Wanning.

Song Wanning emerged from the darkness and glanced at Jiang Wentian.

Jiang Wentian hesitated to act only because he wanted to take one last look at his daughter's body... Once Jiang Cen was killed, this body would fall into a deep sleep forever and never wake up again.

She lowered her eyes, staring coldly at Jiang Cen, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

"I've come, of course, to collect your body."

"What did you say?"

Jiang Cen exploded instantly.

"Father, did you hear that? She said she's going to collect my body!!!"

Her first reaction was to complain to Jiang Wentian, "Song Wanning, how dare you! My father is right here, and you still want to kill me?"

Jiang Cen absolutely hates Song Wanning, he hates her so much!!!

Now they wish Jiang Wentian would kill Song Wanning so she wouldn't live and get in their way.

But the next moment, Song Wanning's words made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

Are you sure you're his daughter?

Upon hearing this, the color drained from Jiang Cen's face instantly, leaving only fear in his eyes.

"What...what nonsense are you talking about? If I'm not Dad's daughter, then who am I?"

"Song Wanning, stop trying to sow discord here. Let me tell you, if you don't apologize to me, my father will definitely kill you—"

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Wentian suddenly sprang forward and charged directly at Jiang Cen.

The next instant, his large hand covered Jiang Cen's head, pulling Jiang Cen's soul out of his consciousness.

This is his daughter's body; he will not allow even the slightest harm to occur.

"what--"

Jiang Cen realized something was wrong and screamed in fright, but in the next instant, Jiang Wentian grabbed her tightly.

Because she devoured the original owner's soul, her soul was filled with the original owner's aura, which was why Jiang Wentian didn't attack her at first.

Normally, possession involves completely covering the original owner's aura; otherwise, it cannot take over the body.

Therefore, even if someone is reborn through possession, others will be able to detect it.

Jiang Cen's situation was somewhat different; even Jiang Wentian couldn't detect it, let alone anyone else.

Looking at this face that was exactly like his own daughter's, Jiang Wentian felt a surge of hatred.

"It was you—it was you who killed Cen'er..."

Jiang Wentian stared intently at Jiang Cen with red eyes, his voice calm yet tinged with madness.

No—it's not—

Jiang Cen trembled in fright and immediately burst into tears.

Ultimately, she was just an ordinary girl who hadn't accomplished anything since transmigrating into the book, and hadn't even killed many monsters.

Now, facing the pressure of the combined stage, she was utterly terrified.

"I really... I really didn't—Dad, you've misunderstood..."

She kept crying and shaking her head.

"There's a misunderstanding... She's dead, and I accidentally... I don't even know how I took over this body... Really, Dad, you have to believe me!"

"I didn't kill her, I really didn't..."

Jiang Cen wished he could kneel down before Jiang Wentian.

She was terrified.

She doesn't want to die! !
Jiang Wentian remained expressionless, staring coldly at her.

You must pay the price for this!

As he finished speaking, a ball of flame suddenly shot out from his hand.

It directly absorbed Jiang Cen's soul.

"Ah, no--"

A sharp pain struck, causing Jiang Cen's vision to go black, and he almost fainted from the pain.

She screamed, but was immediately overwhelmed by intense pain.
