Chapter 17: You Bully Me, and I Will Bully Your Martial Sisters!
Under the shroud of dark clouds, the entire Duxian sect immediately fell into a deep, dark night.
This sudden change made everyone vigilant, even those in the Qi refining period who had just started to cultivate their inner energy sensed the abnormality.
There is no way out.
The intense killing intent emanating from the dark clouds is too strong and too unobstructed!
The head is dizzy, and the surrounding air seems to have solidified. In such an environment, even a demonic beast with undeveloped intelligence would instinctively become vigilant.
"Chirp, chirp!"
The Jade Rabbit raised its front paws, pointing at the figure appearing in the dark clouds, extremely anxious.
She usually talks and moves her body richly, but such an intense reaction is the first time she has appeared.
"Could it be those demonic beasts that escaped from the gate of the demon realm?"
After the Demon Emperor’s death, the East Divine Land had been peaceful for almost half a month, but today a group of demonic beasts suddenly appeared, clamoring to revive the glory of the Demon Saint and causing chaos.
However, those demonic beasts should still be causing chaos near the North Luzhou. How did they suddenly run to the Duxian sect?
Could it be targeting Qing Luan?
Su Youwei’s expression became extremely serious.
Thanks to the changes in the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl, her strength had improved a lot, but it was still not enough in this chaotic world.
"Master and Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian are not in the sect, it’s better to inform them first."
With this in mind, she pulled the jade rabbit behind her.
"Don’t run around, follow me."
Many years have passed, yet the jade rabbit’s cultivation base remains at the Nascent Soul Stage, and now even Ling Xuan can defeat it.
Su Youwei had to take care of the jade rabbit.
Hearing this, the jade rabbit jumped directly onto Su Youwei’s back, its four paws and ears firmly holding onto Su Youwei’s shoulders, as if afraid of accidentally falling off.
Su Youwei was taken aback.
She felt the warm body temperature of the jade rabbit and even felt its body trembling lightly.
"What’s wrong?"
"Haw haw!"
The jade rabbit just shook its head.
After a moment’s pause, Su Youwei decided to set this matter aside for now.
The top priority is still to contact the others. As for who the invading enemy is and what their purpose is, it has to be discussed later.
She hurriedly walked towards Bai Lian’s room and when she reached the door, it was already open.
The Dharma body that Bai Lian left in the room was standing at the doorway.
"The Duxian sect has been blocked. I can’t contact my main body for the time being, but you don’t have to worry. My main body will soon notice something is wrong and come back."
"What about our master?"
"Can’t contact her."
Su Youwei’s heart suddenly sank.
Not long ago, Qing Luan and the sect leader left one after another, Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian and the master were not able to return for a while. As a result, among the recognized forces in the Duxian sect, there were only the Blood Tree Patriarch and the Fourth Martial Sister.
Can it resist?
She and Xiao Jinse and others all possess a Transcendency Stage cultivation base. However, it seems that the Transcendency Stage is somewhat inadequate.
Responding to Su Youwei’s worry were black raindrops falling from the sky.
Crackling sounds…
After several crisp explosions, visible gaping cracks appeared on the Duxian sect’s mountain protection magic array.
"How could this be?"
Exclamations of shock resounded, and Su Youwei was greatly alarmed.
After experiencing the invasion of the Demons of the Outer Realm event, the master had made some improvements to the mountain protection array, which increased its defensive capabilities by more than tenfold.
However, this magic array was unable to even withstand the enemy’s first attack!
Su Youwei’s heart was also clouded over like the sky.
"We cannot wait any longer."
Beside them, Yu Ying who had been silently gazing at the sky stepped forward.
She had originally planned to use the mountain guarding magic array to deplete the enemy’s strength, but now it seemed like that plan was no longer feasible.
"You guys find a way to contact Elder Martial Sister, I will go intercept her."
Standing still, Yu Ying’s body suddenly emitted a bright aqua-blue light, and she transformed into a sword in an instant. Like thunder shooting upwards, she burst out from the crack in the magic array and charged straight into the clouds.
The deafening thunder rocked the world, the clouds surging like the raging sea inverted above the sky.
At the same time.
The Zhuyan peak.
"I’ll be back in no time."
The Blood Tree Patriarch extended a branch and touched Yan Yue’s head.
Yan Yue grabbed the branch with her hand and shook her head, "I have a bad feeling. If you go out now, I’m afraid that you…"
The Blood Tree Patriarch withdrew the branch and touched Yan Yue’s head again, "I am like you, I am afraid of your death. That is why I have to go out and not leave Yu Ying alone outside. Can I, an old tree that has lived for hundreds of years fall behind the younger generation?"
Yan Yue stared at the Blood Tree Patriarch.
The blood-colored bark appeared rugged and powerful, and the crown of the tree seemed even more vibrant.
She said, "You are not old."
The Blood Tree Patriarch grinned, "I know, my rings haven’t even reached a thousand yet."
Moreover…
I have not yet seen the day when you getting married.
Yan Yue wiped her eyes, "A thousand rounds are not enough."
"Then how many rounds are enough?"
"Ten thousand rounds, no, make it a hundred thousand rounds!"
"That would be too coarse and unattractive."
"I think it’s beautiful," Yan Yue said firmly.
The Blood Tree Patriarch’s gaze turned to the side, "Then I…will put in a little more effort."
Yan Yue clenched her fist, "Not a little, but to exhaust all efforts."
"Exhaust all efforts."
Reciting this word, countless red threads flew out of the Blood Tree Patriarch’s head, and these threads were woven together to protect the Duxian sect like a wicker basket.
In the sky, red orbs floated everywhere, casting the sky into a glaring red.
"It’s Younger Martial Sister Yu Ying and the Blood Tree Patriarch!"
On the square, the disciples who first noticed this scene shouted out loudly.
This was the beginning, and more voices were rising like surging waves.
Everyone in the Duxian sect was busy.
Weaker people hid early to avoid distracting others.
The stronger ones, like Yu Ying and the Blood Tree Patriarch, went straight into the clouds, while others did their best to maintain the mountain protecting magic array or wait for opportunities to act.
Everyone could see clearly that the person attacking the Duxian sect this time was a woman in white.
Because of the obstruction of the Way of the Great Tao, no one could see her appearance.
However, she was so strong that she frightened everyone.
"Is this all you’ve got?"
Just after fighting with Yu Ying and the Blood Tree Patriarch, Witch Queen remained vigilant.
She was afraid that Bai Lian may have left a trick behind in the Duxian sect, and she didn’t want to experience being controlled by Bai Lian and then suppressed again.
The renowned Witch Queen was knocked down without any resistance!
Goodness me, once this matter spreads, how can she still show her face in the Immortal World?
"This is just a small revenge. I will surely kill you and eliminate future troubles when I have a chance!"
With a wave of her hand, Witch Queen released her witchcraft spells like scattered gravel and instantly crushed the attack launched by Yu Ying and the Blood Tree Patriarch.
However, she didn’t pursue this time, as she found something interesting.
"You…" The Witch Queen stared at Yu Ying, slightly surprised, "this aura."
"Ah?"
Yu Ying, who was stepping on the water waves and putting the sword on her waist, looked at the Witch Queen in a daze.
Aura?
The Witch Queen said, "It not only grants you inheritance, but also gave you the Heart of Serenity. You are really lucky."
Yu Ying immediately understood that the "it" the Witch Queen was referring to was the Original Dragon.
She held her sharp blade and looked at the Witch Queen warily, "Who are you?"
The Witch Queen took a step with her right foot and pointed afar, "With just you alone, you have no qualification to know my identity!"
Yu Ying, "…"
The Blood Tree Patriarch beside her was infuriated, "This is mere sophistry!"
The red leaves surged towards the Witch Queen like a deluge.
"Hmm."
The Witch Queen didn’t even make a move but simply glanced at it with cold eyes.
In a moment, the flying red leaves were all ignited by flames, and a spectacular fire dragon seemed to appear in the sky.
The fire burned fiercely, and the high temperature baked everything.
Even the water waves under Yu Ying’s feet were steamed dry.
This sudden turn of events made Yu Ying’s heart sink even more.
She didn’t understand at all how the Witch Queen made her move, and if she couldn’t even do that, could she really defeat this woman?
Yu Ying couldn’t help feeling a sense of retreat in her heart.
The Witch Queen gently hooked her enchanting purple lips, she wasn’t just standing there, she had already influenced Yu Ying’s soul through magic.
"But for the sake of your relationship with Bai Lian, I’ll make an exception and let you know my real name. Otherwise, killing you would be rather dull."
Yu Ying was stunned, "Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian?"
The Witch Queen shouted loudly, "Listen carefully, I am the Princess of the Ancestral Witch clan, a founding member of Heavenly Court, the leader of the twenty states, the Immortal Emperor renowned in the Three Thousand Realms, and the Witch Queen, the head of the witch sect!"
"!"
Yu Ying was completely stunned by the Witch Queen’s long list of titles.
She didn’t understand most of the words, but she accurately caught the term "Immortal Emperor".
"You’re an Immortal Emperor?"
"How dare you!" The Witch Queen interrupted Yu Ying, "Offending the Immortal Emperor is punishable by death! If you kneel down and apologize now, I can still spare you some pain."
Yu Ying’s lips moved slightly, but in the end she swallowed the words she wanted to say.
Is an Immortal Emperor very rare?
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is the reincarnation of an Immortal Emperor.
Their master is also the Heavenly Lord reincarnated. Not long ago, she witnessed the downfall of a Heavenly Lord with her own eyes.
Moreover, she hasn’t even kneeled to her master before, why should she kneel to an Immortal Emperor who came from who-knows-where?
From this woman’s words and actions, it is clear that she has a deep conflict with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian.
Therefore, she is even less likely to back down!
Thinking this way, Yu Ying was not frightened by the Witch Queen but instead completely dispelled the slightest intention to retreat that arose in her heart.
Within her being, the surging waves are brewing, and her fighting spirit surges along with them, her physical state becoming unprecedentedly good.
The Witch Queen was waiting, and upon seeing Yu Ying’s continued silence, she became instantly furious.
"You, a lowly ant of the mortal realm, dare to challenge me? You are already a dead person!"
Yu Ying immediately drew her sword, "Blood Tree Patriarch, I’ll lead the attack. You flank from the side!"
The Blood Tree Patriarch had no objection.
The difference in strength was evident, and taking the lead by force would only worsen the situation.
"Ignorant fool!"
The Witch Queen was about to explode with anger.
I cannot defeat Bai Lian at the moment, can’t I kill a weakling like you?
She came up and immediately used the deadliest move, a huge magic array of thousands of beast souls formed into a gusty Yin wind, using various blessings and curses. Soon, Yu Ying and the Blood Tree Patriarch fell behind.
Although the Witch Queen now is weak, she is still stronger than Yu Ying, even if just a little.
The endless spells and oppression from the Way of the Great Tao made Yu Ying exhausted running for her life. To save the Blood Tree Patriarch, she already had several obvious wounds on her body.
"It seems like I am just holding you back by staying here," sighed the Blood Tree Patriarch.
Yu Ying wiped the blood off the back of her hand, "It’s nothing."
A black light suddenly shot out, followed by the Witch Queen’s voice.
"Rest assured, I will not only kill you, but also no one in the Duxian sect can escape!"
Yu Ying and the Blood Tree Patriarch’s faces turned ashen.
They also saw that the Witch Queen had surrounded the Duxian sect with an extremely strong spell.
If the cage is not broken or the Witch Queen is not killed, neither of them will be safe.
The Witch Queen sneered repeatedly.
Killing all of Bai Lian’s Martial Sisters in front of Bai Lian, and then leaving Bai Lian with nothing to do but watch, the thought of it is thrilling!
Unfortunately…
After seriously considering how Bai Lian dealt with her not long ago, the Witch Queen abandoned this plan.
She has little time left and cannot waste more on Yu Ying.
She decisively released numerous beast souls to create chaos in the Duxian sect, bypassing the Blood Tree Patriarch’s barrier and Yu Ying’s obstruction.
"Villain!"
Yu Ying’s face changed dramatically when she saw this.
She had just intended to rush to the Qiongming Peak for reinforcements, but was intercepted.
"Have you forgotten about my existence?"
The Witch Queen smiled coquettishly.
Bai Lian, you can just watch how your fellow disciples died!
Agony, torment…
This is what I am going to bestow upon you!
Yu Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Get out of the way!"
"Feel free to come and try!" The Witch Queen lightly lifted the piece of cloth in front of her, and took up her stance.
Without saying a word, Yu Ying rushed up.
The battle became increasingly intense.
At this moment, Su Youwei and others who remained at the Qiongming Peak were also in peril.
The beast souls came howling, at first frightened by Bai Lian’s avatar.
But after recognizing it was a dumb avatar, beast souls became even more ferocious, and within a hundred breaths, it destroyed the avatar that had not been replenished with any spirit Qi.
Su Youwei forcibly took down the jade rabbit that was clinging to her back, during which process the jade rabbit struggled desperately and refused to come down.
However, the gap in strength prevented her from resisting, and she was eventually thrown into Ling Xuan’s arms.
"Fifth Martial Sister, quickly take this stupid rabbit and hide."
"Ah? Third Elder Martial Sister, I…"
"Go quickly!"
Su Youwei narrowed her eyes with force.
Ling Xuan seemed to be frightened as she turned around and headed straight to An Lan’s cave, holding the jade rabbit in her arms.
Su Youwei breathed a sigh of relief.
This left only her and the fool Xiao Jinse here.
She glanced back at Xiao Jinse.
Xiao Jinse drew a blazing red sword, "I’ll guard this place, you go help in other peaks."
Su Youwei nodded her head.
Su Youwei and Xiao Jinse were old rivals, from fighting over Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian in the same bed to brawling in the arena and participating in various contests, both openly and secretly, which could be considered as fighting out of affection.
Xiao Jinse was quite detestable, but not excessively so.
If it weren’t for Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, they could have become good confidants.
However, without Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, they could never have come together.
Indeed, there is always a trade-off.
Nevertheless, at this moment, Su Youwei didn’t want anything and preferred to abandon precious things.
"Don’t die."
Xiao Jinse snorted softly, "Same goes for you."
"Don’t worry, I won’t die before you."
"I won’t die before you either."
So it starts over again, right?
With a slight twitch of her mouth, Su Youwei took the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl, swiftly flying out from the top of the Qiongming Peak.
There was a beast soul interception on the way, but it was shattered by Xiao Jinse’s swift sword.
The sky was filled with clouds of fire, seemingly bidding her farewell.
"If you want to destroy the Qiongming Peak, you have to step over me first!"
Xiao Jinse stood at the summit, sword slashing through the air, unleashing countless flames that surrounded her like an erupting volcano.
This made for an inexplicable handsome sight.
"I’m no match for you!"
Su Youwei summoned Hong Yi.
"Let’s go help that purple double ponytail fool first."
"Ok."
Hong Yi’s response was simple and straightforward.
The two of them traveled westward, encountering many beast souls along the way. However, under their sharp swordsmanship, no beast soul could last more than a moment.
They soon arrived at Qingyu Peak.
Most of Qingyu Peak’s disciples had already retreated to the forbidden area behind Yunluo Peak. The remaining few were orderly rushing toward Yunluo Peak under Tong Yao’s command.
However, the beast souls rampaged on the way, and it was not peaceful.
It was unclear what the situation was, but the number of beast soul attacks on Qingyu Peak far exceeded that of other places, even more than the Qiongming Peak.
"Tong Yao, I am here to help you!"
Su Youwei shouted.
Tong Yao standing in front of the battlefield said without turning back, "Don’t bother, just hide behind me. My strength has greatly increased recently, and dealing with these demons and monsters is a piece of cake!"
"Don’t try to be brave."
"Just watch carefully!"
Tong Yao confidently summoned the Netherworld Seal.
"Suppress!"
The spirit Qi was activated, and the Netherworld Seal turned into a size of more than ten feet, just like a heavy tank, rolling over all the way.
Under the overwhelming momentum, those beast souls couldn’t even dodge, they could only watch themselves being crushed.
"You see, this is my current strength." Tong Yao said proudly.
Various praises immediately sounded behind her.
Su Youwei’s face turned black.
She felt as if she had come for no reason, why worry about Tong Yao when she could spend her time helping Master Yan Yue instead?
Although it was rumored that Master Yan Yue often had conflicts with her master, upon closer inspection, she seemed quite honest; at the very least, she was not as exasperating as Tong Yao.
"Since you’re okay, then I’ll just go first…"
Su Youwei’s voice abruptly came to a halt.
Suddenly, a person appeared before her!
If she wasn’t mistaken, this was the person who recently fought with the Fourth Martial Sister up in the sky.
Since this person was here, then the Fourth Martial Sister…
Su Youwei immediately lifted her head and sighed with relief when she saw that the Fourth Martial Sister was still fighting with someone.
Is it a power like Avatar?
But now is not the time to relax. Su Youwei’s body trembled slightly as she felt an unprecedented pressure from the woman in front of her.
It was as if she would be sliced to pieces if she even moved slightly.
Not only Su Youwei, but Hong Yi’s reaction was even more intense.
"What exactly is this person’s strength?"
Su Youwei gritted her teeth.
Suddenly, she heard Tong Yao’s voice, "I… I’ve greatly strengthened, I’m not afraid of you!"
The Witch Queen just stared at the Netherworld Seal in Tong Yao’s hand. "Where did you get this seal from?"
Tong Yao was sweating profusely. "It’s none of your business."
"Interesting."
Witch Queen squinted and extended her hand to Tong Yao.
It was at this moment that, on the Boundless Sea, An Lan finally received the message from Master Turtle, which made her even more furious.
"You bastard, how dare you steal Bai Lian from me!"
She quickly headed towards the East Divine Land.
