"Sizzle... crack..."
At the foot of the volcano, a sea of purple lightning churned amid the clouds, like Lightning Dragons roaming, roaring, and bellowing.
The Ancient Lightning Pool.
As Lin Shisan gazed at that purple lightning, a smile crept onto his lips. There really was an Ancient Lightning Pool here.
But he forced himself to remain calm and did not rush down.
He sat behind a rock, took a Meridian-Congealing Pill from his Storage Ring, and swallowed it, then closed his eyes to regulate his breathing.
Gu Mengli sat beside him and looked at him in confusion. "Senior Brother Lin, aren't we going to the Thunder Pool now?"
"No hurry. Let's wait for someone first."
"Someone? Who?"
"Someone who wants to kill me."
Gu Mengli's heart chilled, and her delicate brows furrowed. She instantly understood some of what he meant.
At the same time, she gained a deeper understanding of Lin Shisan. This senior brother, who seemed so simple and honest, also had a crafty side capable of setting people up.
"You mean... Xiao Han?"
"Yes."
Lin Shisan nodded, his gaze calm.
"He has the Xiao Household's Tracking Talisman. I deliberately released my aura just now. He'll definitely find this place."
He said no more, but Gu Mengli had already heard the chill in his words.
Killing with a borrowed blade-using the Lightning Pool Guardian Beast against Xiao Han would strike two birds with one arrow.
He could successfully lure the Lightning Pool Guardian Beast away and bring his mortal enemy to a miserable death, or at least strip several layers of skin off him, while entering the Thunder Pool himself.
"Senior Brother Lin, are you... are you really going to kill Xiao Han?"
Gu Mengli's voice trembled slightly.
Not from fear, but from shock.
The Lin Shisan she knew
