Chapter 14: Ask Martial Sister Bai Lian to Take the Lead to Wipe Out the White Tiger Hall!
Bai Lian breathed a sigh of relief. She wanted to raise her hand and punch Si Yunshang hard but finally restrained herself.
Given Si Yunshang’s current situation, a punch might send her groveling for mercy. With a disgusted expression, Bai Lian pulled Si Yunshang off herself.
She was calm.
Women?
She wasn’t into them now.
I live for my younger Martial Sisters!
…and Master. Well, Master wasn’t here right now, so her priority was her Martial Sisters.
“You just stay here. I’ll come back for you after dealing with the White Tiger Hall leader,” Bai Lian said casually.
She set up a magic array around Si Yunshang, leaving several phantom butterflies to monitor her. After completing her arrangements, Bai Lian climbed out of the hole created by the jade rabbit, sealing it behind her as she left.
The White Tiger Hall had become a chaotic battle arena.
Bai Lian squinted as the lights of countless spells flashed across her vision, threatening to blind her. Sensing the jade rabbit’s position, she hurried in that direction.
Her top priority was to find her younger Martial Sisters.
Xiao Jinse and Su Youwei were still in the Foundation Establishment Stage. If they weren’t careful, they might face serious danger.
—
Soon, Bai Lian found the jade rabbit outside the forbidden area. The creature was cornered, surrounded by a pack of white tigers with blood-red eyes.
The jade rabbit shrank into a corner, shielding Xiao Jinse and Su Youwei behind it.
The white tigers didn’t scare the jade rabbit—it was Chen Yizhi, standing behind the tigers, who truly terrified it.
Bai Lian instantly recognized that Chen Yizhi had been possessed by a Demon Soul.
“Maybe this is fate,” Bai Lian muttered with a sigh.
Unlike the game’s plot, Chen Yizhi hadn’t been brought back by Zhou Hongyun, the White Tiger Hall leader. Yet, he hadn’t escaped the fate of possession.
While Bai Lian lamented this twist of destiny, the Demon Soul panicked.
Chen Yizhi’s memories allowed the Demon Soul to instantly recognize the jade rabbit, Xiao Jinse, and Su Youwei.
Bai Lian’s pet. Bai Lian’s Martial Sisters.
They’re here. That means… Bai Lian is nearby!
Who was Bai Lian?
The Demon Soul, trembling, recalled everything about her from Chen Yizhi’s memories.
Bai Lian, the prodigy of the Duxian Sect, began cultivating at 15 and was already nearing the Soul Changing Stage by 19.
Her reputation was terrifying.
She was called the “Natural Sword God.”
She had killed dragons, destroyed phoenixes, slain ghost kings, and annihilated evil demons.
Elder Martial Brother Gong, a Nascent Soul cultivator, had fled after just one glance from her.
Even the Saint of the Biluo Sect had failed to defeat Bai Lian’s pet.
According to Master Yan Yue, Bai Lian’s strength was 20 years ahead of her peers.
It’s best to avoid her! the Demon Soul thought. Let Zhou Hongyun deal with her!
Just as the Demon Soul was about to flee, a figure suddenly appeared.
—
Stars!
The Demon Soul staggered back in terror.
Bai Bai Bai Lian…
Wait.
There were ten ★s. This wasn’t Bai Lian.
Realizing this, the Demon Soul exhaled in relief, which was immediately replaced by fury.
“Bastard! You dared to scare me on purpose?!”
Driven by rage, the Demon Soul unsheathed his sword. Wrapped in cold light, it shot toward Bai Lian like a missile.
—
Bai Lian immediately noticed the attack. The system presented her with two options:
1. [Escape]
2. [Fight]
Without hesitation, she chose the second.
Bang!
Her punch collided with the flying sword, sending shockwaves through the air.
[Task completed. Reward: Focus +2.]
The Demon Soul froze as his sword, deflected like a discarded cartridge, clattered to the ground.
When the light faded, Bai Lian’s figure emerged.
—
The Demon Soul blinked in confusion. Seven of the ten ★s were gone, leaving only one under her right eye and two in her pupils.
Then Bai Lian blinked, and now only one ★ remained under her right eye.
“Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian!”
The Demon Soul felt despair.
One moment, he believed Bai Lian was invincible. The next, he had foolishly attacked her.
—
Xiao Jinse and Su Youwei noticed Bai Lian.
“Haw!” the jade rabbit cried.
Bai Lian waved at her Martial Sisters.
She was about to reveal the Demon Soul’s identity when a dazzling light erupted from the forbidden area’s depths.
—
Footsteps echoed.
Zhou Hongyun emerged, bloodied but composed.
“So lively,” he sneered. “Perfect timing to capture all you thieves!”
The Demon Soul suddenly had an idea.
“Martial Sister Bai Lian, I apologize,” he said, feigning innocence. “I mistook you for an enemy of the White Tiger Hall.”
—
“Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian?”
Zhou Hongyun narrowed his eyes.
Bai Lian calmly nodded. “Yes, it’s me.”
Help me! Bai Lian screamed internally.
Just then, she heard familiar voices.
“Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian?”
“We’ve won!”
She turned to see Qing Luan from Yunluo Peak, accompanied by other disciples.
“Where’s Elder Gaoyi?” Bai Lian asked in disbelief.
“Elder Gaoyi is investigating the Lingxu and Huaxin Sects,” Qing Luan replied. “He asked you to lead us in wiping out the White Tiger Hall!”
—
Bai Lian was speechless.
Lead them to wipe out the White Tiger Hall? We’ll be wiped out instead!
Her disciples, however, looked at her with unwavering trust.
—
Meanwhile, Zhou Hongyun panicked.
Why is Bai Lian here? The Duxian Sect is bullying us! This is overkill!
Desperate, he turned to the Demon Soul, determined to expose his identity. Under the weight of countless gazes, Zhou Hongyun took a step forward.
