Under the shroud of cold, gray-white fog, the area around the Huacheng Reservoir had become a battlefield, where numerous urban legend and Psychic were constantly clashing.
In the distance, Bai Kai, who had been watching the battle, was almost completely drained of Spiritual Energy by activating the Huacheng Barrier talisman, his face pale, and his hand gripping the talisman trembling with spasms.
On the talisman, which looked like it was carved from green jade, five complex and mysterious Spells radiated light.
Under normal circumstances, activating a city's barrier, depending on the city's size, requires at least two to five core members with Spiritual Energy fluctuation levels of B+ or higher to jointly inject Spiritual Energy.
Even though Bai Kai's Spiritual Energy level was slightly superior to that of ordinary core members, the consumption was still too great, nearly exhausting his Spiritual Energy and causing his Spirit Marks to go out of control.
After slightly adjusting his breathing, he lightly touched the baogang cang owl badge at his collar to send a message to Lu Yibei. Then, supporting himself on a nearby tree, he shakily stood up, a ruthless look flashing in his eyes, and forcefully crushed the talisman in his hand.
"Huacheng Barrier... Activate!"
In an instant, the shattered powder of the talisman erupted with dazzling lightning, transforming into thousands of light points, like a corner of the starry river unfolding around Bai Kai, circling, dancing, and soaring upwards, pointing straight to the clear sky.
That beam of light connected heaven and earth, piercing the darkness, quiet and beautiful, yet carrying a power that made one tremble, stirring the clouds.
The dead silent dark clouds seemed to suddenly erupt in fury, opening up a massive vortex.
"Rumble—!"
Accompanied by a peal of thunder, countless arcs of astonishing energy moved like dragons just below the clouds.
A hemispherical arc-shaped light shield quietly appeared high above Hua City, fleeting in an instant, covered with dense golden Spells, the strokes either freehand and flowing, childlike and naive, or vigorous and powerful. freewebnovёl.ƈom
"Rumble—!"
Thunder rumbled once more, and the sky above suddenly shook as if a deity was beating a drum.
Along with it, a dark cloud, carrying terrifying lightning power, quickly moved towards the location of the Huacheng Reservoir under Bai Kai's control, soon reaching the predetermined position and locking onto Lu Yibei's aura.
Then.
Thunder sounded again, the clouds tore open, and lightning descended from the sky.
----
When the first peal of thunder echoed through the sky, among the large crowd of the Disaster Witch fan club, the first to realize that the Night Watch had activated the Huacheng Barrier was the system.
However, before it could remind Gu Qianqian, and before Gu Qianqian could remind the group of Little Freaks, she heard a cry of surprise from behind.
"The barrier! It's the Huacheng Barrier! The Night Watch has made their move! Everyone run, as far as possible, don't get trapped inside!"
Looking towards the sound, a tall, thin man wearing a fan club T-shirt, with a face showing signs of kidney deficiency, was raising his arms and shouting, leading a group of Little Freaks to retreat like a tide.
"Strange..." Looking at the back of that Psychic, the system hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong, system? Is there a problem?" Gu Qianqian asked.
"Well, that Psychic just now has considerable strength, but he was hidden among the urban legend, and I didn't even notice him. I don't know what his intentions are," the system said in a heavy tone.
Just then, Gu Qianqian passed by that Psychic, and heard him muttering, "Damn it, the seductive older sister and the cold-faced loli are fighting, there might even be clothes tearing and breast shaking. I can't see such a wonderful scene, so annoying!"
"System, system, what does he mean?" Gu Qianqian asked curiously.
"..." The system hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Gu Qianqian, those things are not something a child like you can understand."
"Hmph!" Gu Qianqian snorted defiantly, "I get it, isn't it just GHS? What's there not to understand!"
"..." Just as the system was about to argue with Gu Qianqian, it heard a soft, warm voice beside her, like a spring breeze.
"Huh? Is that a Guardian Spirit? I've only seen it in Grandpa's books, I didn't expect such a thing to actually exist. Can I take a look?"
Hearing that someone had actually detected its presence, the system's heart tightened, and it quickly retreated back into Gu Qianqian's body.
Gu Qianqian turned around and saw the woman who was as beautiful and ethereal as a peony under the moon. She was stunned for a moment, then explained, "No, it's the system!"
Nanling Yaohua gave a silent smile, nodded, and said meaningfully, "The system? Interesting, there really are many different things in the outside world!"
After speaking, she no longer pursued Gu Qianqian for the "Guardian Spirit" to study, but silently blended into the retreating Little Freaks and walked towards the distance.
Soon, the third peal of thunder echoed in the sky.
----
After the second peal of thunder sounded.
Feeling the constantly brewing, suffocatingly terrifying aura above the sky, the Twilight Woman realized that someone from the Night Watch had activated the Huacheng Barrier, and a storm immediately surged in her heart.
Had the Night Watch's reinforcements arrived, preparing to start surrounding and killing the group of urban legend gathered here? the Twilight Woman mused inwardly.
"Taihe Gentleman Sword - Autumn Night Wind and Rain Change!"
In shock, the Twilight Woman was about to retreat but was intercepted by Lu Yibei's rain-like sword light, keeping her in place.
"Are you crazy?" After stabilizing herself from being forced back, the Twilight Woman glared at Lu Yibei and shouted fiercely, "Being confined within a city's barrier only leads to being slaughtered. It would be better to..."
"How do you know this wasn't something I planned long ago?" Lu Yibei said expressionlessly.
As her voice fell, the third peal of thunder echoed, illuminating her face, which appeared in the Twilight Woman's eyes like a terrifying, hideous ghost.
Her face turned pale and then flushed, and she instantly understood. Lu Yibei had been stalling for time just now, waiting for something.
She was waiting for the Huacheng Barrier to be ready!
At this moment, the clouds above the sky were torn apart.
The next instant, countless dazzling beams of light shot out from the deep night sky.
Thousands of brilliant light pillars, composed of pure Spiritual Energy, arm-sized, and covered in carved Spells, fell from high altitude like a meteor shower, forming a circle with Lu Yibei at the center, enclosing an area with a diameter of two thousand meters.
"Thump, thump, thump—!"
Accompanied by the soft sounds of the light pillars embedding into the ground coming from all directions, the ground churned as if boiling. Amidst the roar of earth and stone colliding and grinding, chanting suddenly rose, seemingly coming from a distant place, murmuring obscure, ancient, and mysterious languages.
Amidst the chanting, lightning shot out from beneath the ground, spreading out countless branches containing surging Spiritual Energy, growing upwards like tree branches stretching out.
Those lightning bolts, flashing with countless golden Spells, quickly wove together above the heads of the Twilight Woman and Lu Yibei, forming an arc-shaped light shield.
Then.
As the lightning gradually faded, the scenery outside the barrier seemed to disappear. Apart from this area that was sealed off, everything within sight plunged into darkness.
At the same time.
The Twilight Woman clearly felt that her connection with the Plague Tai Sui organization scattered throughout the city, and even her perception of the earth's Pulse Breath obtained through the nearly completed Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, were all forcibly severed by a terrifying power in an instant.
That was the power accumulated over the years by the barrier jointly constructed by five Calamity-level Psychic.
In this world, there are almost no urban legend that can forcibly break through the barrier.
This is bad. Even if I can defeat the Disaster Witch, being imprisoned within the barrier means that the Night Watch reinforcements who arrive later can inflict fatal damage on me, the Twilight Woman thought blankly.
"Clink—clink—!"
Just as she was stunned in shock, two soft sounds of glass containers being smashed rang in the Twilight Woman's ears.
Looking towards the sound, she saw Lu Yibei wiping the corner of her mouth and saying coldly, "Damn it, to kill you, just to be safe, I risked exploding and drank two doses of the potion at once!"
The Twilight Woman, "..."
If the situation wasn't critical at this moment, she probably wouldn't have been able to resist complaining about Lu Yibei on the spot.
In the decades since she became a Strange Tale, she had never seen any level of Strange Tale explode and die when completing the core defect of their Strange Tale body.
Just as she was speechless, Lu Yibei's suddenly surging Spiritual Energy fluctuations struck.
Looking forward, a fierce light shone in the Twilight Woman's eyes.
Even if the Huacheng Barrier cut off her Spiritual Energy supply, and even if Lu Yibei took the completion potion, raising her Spiritual Energy fluctuations to a terrifying level in a short time.
But.
All of this merely gave her a chance for a fair fight.
With equal strength, the Twilight Woman was confident that she could win this contest, relying on the combat experience honed through countless brushes with life and death.
After that.
Even if she were killed by the Night Watch reinforcements, she could be reborn in a short time by relying on the Plague Tai Sui flesh and blood scattered throughout the city!
"Take my sword, China's First Sword!"
Just as the Twilight Woman was thinking, Lu Yibei's roar interrupted her thoughts. Looking towards the sound, she saw that small figure, holding a sword with both hands, leaping up and slashing towards her.
In the blink of an eye, her long blade was raised to meet the broken sword, and a roar suddenly erupted.
Under the fierce blow, the Twilight Woman's body sank, the hard road surface beneath her feet cracked open and was instantly pulverized into dust by the terrifying Spiritual Energy fluctuations.
Immediately, a sharp scream erupted from her mouth. While forcing Lu Yibei back, she swung upwards, scattering a swath of silver light.
In less than a second, the long blade and the broken sword collided dozens of times in mid-air. The sound of metal and stone clashing merged into one, exploding in an instant, turning into a deafening buzz.
After a brief exchange, Lu Yibei used the force to retreat. As soon as she landed, she began chanting a spell.
"Golden Gate Jade Chamber, Walls of Cast Iron..."
"Don't you dare!"
The Twilight Woman roared, sweeping her long blade outwards.
Lu Yibei had already anticipated that this slash was just a feint, and the real killing move was the dark green flesh and blood about to burst from the ground. Her gaze sharpened, and she immediately interrupted the Spell chanting. While flying backwards, she flipped her wrist and threw two Alchemy Dirty Bombs to her side.
"Boom—!"
The sound of earth and stone exploding and the buzz of the Alchemy Dirty Bombs exploding sounded almost simultaneously.
Turbulent airflow spread in all directions.
Amidst a thick cloud of smoke, a mournful wind suddenly appeared. The thick limb, formed from dark green flesh and blood, tore through the air and smashed down like a giant's heavy fist.
Although she had anticipated such an attack, the sheer area covered by this blow made it impossible for Lu Yibei to dodge in time, so she could only raise her sword with both hands and take the hit head-on.
"Bang—!"
The brief collision made Lu Yibei feel the terrifying power of that dark green flesh and blood, and the web of her hand went numb in waves.
Under the terrifying pressure, sweat slowly trickled down her temples, and in the blink of an eye, it was evaporated into wisps of pale white mist by her scorching body temperature.
Perhaps because she had been modified by the Plague Tai Sui's organization, the Twilight Woman was much stronger than she had imagined. The pressure she exerted was comparable to when Lu Yibei first started practicing swordsmanship with Qingji.
But...
Just as Lu Yibei felt immense pressure from the power contained within the Plague Tai Sui flesh and blood attached to the Twilight Woman's body, the Twilight Woman was also secretly startled by Lu Yibei's rich combat experience.
The tragic experience of "dying" under Qingji's sword thousands of times allowed Lu Yibei's technique to be superior when her pure strength was slightly insufficient. Coupled with her uncanny prediction, she fought with ease.
Thus, as the influence of technique and strength became balanced, the battle reached a stalemate.
Lu Yibei couldn't remember how many sword swings she had made or how many Spells she had unleashed. Her already few remaining Alchemy Dirty Bombs and various talismans were also long depleted, yet she still couldn't leave a fatal wound on the Twilight Woman.
The Twilight Woman attacked in a rage, like a heavyweight boxer, but her opponent was like an intangible ghost, throwing heavy punches again and again, yet seemingly hitting only air.
Gradually, Lu Yibei felt the Spiritual Energy within her body, which had been restless from taking the completion potion, begin to calm down. An ominous premonition quietly surfaced in her heart, and her attacks also became noticeably more impatient.
Just as fatigue sets in after the effects of any stimulant wear off, she worried that when the completion potion's effects passed, the scales of victory would tip towards the Twilight Woman.
Then.
After the completion potion was finally fully digested within her body, her Spiritual Energy circulation seemed to short-circuit, pausing for an instant.
Immediately after, the immense pain brought by the Strange Tale core's transformation made her suddenly realize that she had messed up.
In an instant, her internal organs constantly wailed, and the burning sensation that had once made her wish she were dead when she swallowed the witchs egg resurfaced.
It was as if a volcano was erupting inside her body, lava surging along her blood vessels, seemingly calcining every inch of her bones and blood, wantonly unleashing scorching energy.
Her tender skin cracked inch by inch as if scorched, firelight faintly visible within the cracks. When she opened her mouth, chunks of solidified calamity water residue spewed out.
Uncontrollable power ran wild within her body, seeming as though it could explode at any moment.
Soon, Lu Yibei couldn't bear the pain, her body convulsed, and she fell to the ground, her vision going dark as she lost consciousness.
The Twilight Woman saw Lu Yibei suddenly collapse in convulsions during the fierce battle, full of openings, and was about to seize the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
However, she immediately saw a large amount of high-concentration calamity water seeping from Lu Yibei's body surface, which was instantly evaporated into poisonous mist by the high temperature.
With kilograms of calamity water gushing out, the Twilight Woman had never seen such a sight. Her heart immediately tightened in shock, and she retreated repeatedly, putting distance between herself and Lu Yibei.
As a Witch Seed, her body naturally produced a small amount of calamity water, so she was not unfamiliar with this stuff.
calamity water has always been a "fatal poison" that causes Witch Seeds to fall and corrupt.
"..."
What is going on? How could she have so much calamity water in her body?
Is this her giving up, preparing to take me down with her?
But...
The scene before her exceeded the Twilight Woman's understanding. For a moment, she didn't dare to rush forward, yet seeing Lu Yibei fall unconscious and completely lose her combat ability, she was unwilling to miss this opportunity.
After hesitating and weighing her options for a while, her gaze sharpened, her red lips parted slightly, and she began to softly chant the description of the Plague Tai Sui.
"The Tai Sui is the Son of Heaven of the year, thus not to be offended; offending leads to Disaster... The Plague is not cold, not wind, not heat, but caused by the strange energy of heaven and earth... The Plague Tai Sui is the Son of Heaven among plagues."
Friendly reminder: The Website is about to undergo a revision, which may cause the loss of your reading record. Please save your "book shelf" and "reading record" in time (screenshot recommended). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!
As she finished chanting, the blood and flesh dress wrapped around her body immediately seemed to boil, writhing constantly, surging in all directions with the power to corrupt and devour everything.
In the blink of an eye, like wildly proliferating bacteria, it was pervasive and impossible to guard against, covering the entire barrier space and engulfing Lu Yibei's body.
----
On the rooftop of the Hua City Financial Center.
The golden-haired woman watched the morbid and hideous dark green blood and flesh continuously expand and proliferate, covering the entire scene, and finally, even the water screen dissipated with a "splash." She couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Sigh--!"
"What a pity. For a moment there, I couldn't help but want to cheer for this hardworking Little Freak and look forward to her victory!"
"Disaster, Disaster. Is it to ward off Disaster?" The woman smiled, "How interesting."
As she spoke, she got up, tidied her clothes, and looked towards the Huacheng Reservoir, pouting, "It's about time to go clean up the mess left by my foolish ex-ex-ex-boyfriend."
"Unauthorized use of the city barrier is a serious crime!"
----
Half a minute ago.
As the Twilight Woman finished her description, the Plague Tai Sui's highly corrosive blood and flesh, which seemed to devour everything, completely filled every corner of the barrier.
The moment the Plague Tai Sui's blood and flesh completely engulfed Lu Yibei's form, her Coat suddenly wriggled violently, opening with a "bang!" like a gas-filled [N O V E L I G H T] balloon, wrapping around her and protecting her.
In her daze, Lu Yibei vaguely heard a low murmur echoing in her mind, seemingly from ancient times but indistinct, and then her consciousness gradually cleared.
However, when she managed to open her eyes slightly and look forward, she saw a vast river flowing endlessly, with no end in sight.
On the desolate riverbank, firelight flickered, and a woman stood alone, her Qingyi fluttering.
Who... was she?
Lu Yibei thought, full of questions. The woman was clearly not far in front of her, yet she seemed impossibly distant. Her eyes could only capture a blurry outline, as illusory as seeing flowers in a dream.
Immediately after, she felt the whispers in her ears becoming stronger and clearer, as if answering her questions.
"There is a mountain of Kun, there is a platform of Gonggong, archers dare not face north. There is a person wearing Qingyi, a heavenly maiden, named Ba."
After she completely heard that familiar yet unfamiliar description, the vast river, the flickering firelight, the woman in Qingyi before her...
All the scenery disappeared like mist being blown away by the wind, vanishing after a period of hazy light and shadow, leaving her in darkness.
After a long time, Lu Yibei opened her eyes again, her pupils seeming to be ignited, with faint firelight flickering.
Immediately after, before she could carefully feel the physical changes brought by the first completion of a defect, she saw her Coat, riddled with holes from the Plague Tai Sui's blood and flesh.
Through the corroded gaps, foul-smelling blood and flesh surged from all directions, spewing thick, poisonous smoke.
The moment she inhaled the smoke, Lu Yibei immediately felt a vast and evil life force pour into her body like a tide.
Then her body quickly began to become numb, starting with her hands and feet, then her torso, and finally even the circulation of Spiritual Energy seemed to be dragged into a swamp, becoming blocked.
Twisted mouths branched and proliferated on the dark green blood and flesh, collectively wailing around her ears like the cries of someone dying from a long illness, mixed with dispiriting whispers.
Endless intense toxins and despairing emotions poured into Lu Yibei's body. Before long, her vision became blurred.
Just then.
"Hiss--!"
A soft sound rang out in the darkness, like a hot iron searing fresh flesh.
Lu Yibei followed the sound and saw the Lingtai Pure Karma, which she had been clenching tightly in her hand, glowing fiery red as if it had been re-forged. Red firelight flickered from its broken edge, as if the missing part had been completed, and the blade reconstructed with fire.
"Holy crap, this..." Lu Yibei murmured. As soon as she finished speaking, she felt something surge into her mind.
Just as described in the Great Serpent God's knowledge, whenever a urban legend core defect was completed, if a talent ability awakened, the urban legend itself would quickly become aware of it.
Lu Yibei carefully recalled the information that had appeared in her mind out of nowhere, slowly extended her hand, and tentatively touched the Plague Tai Sui's blood and flesh exposed through the Coat's gap, leaving a shallow, small handprint.
With a thought, the patch of blood and flesh she had touched immediately burst into intense firelight. As the firelight grew stronger, the Spiritual Energy within the blood and flesh also began to burn.
Then.
"Boom!" There was an explosion.
"Cough, cough, cough--!"
In the thick smoke, after a violent fit of coughing, Lu Yibei said angrily, "I've long felt that other urban legend have talent skills, but I didn't, which was damn annoying! Now this is how it should be!"
Leaving a mark on objects touched by her hands, and according to her will, performing "ignition" at the Spiritual Energy level or short-term fire attachment "enhancement."
This was the talent skill she awakened after completing the defect.
Previously, the Lingtai Pure Karma was enhanced unconsciously by her, but now...
Lu Yibei looked at her hands, then at the constantly writhing dark green blood and flesh around her, her expression gradually becoming warped.
"Come on, don't be scared, let me give you a BUFF!"
Talking to herself, she extended her "sinful" little hands towards the surrounding blood and flesh.
----
At the foot of the mountain in front of the Huacheng Reservoir.
It was as if some terrifying existence was constantly colliding with the barrier, producing rumbling sounds, and lightning surged on the barrier.
No one knew what was happening inside the barrier.
Countless urban legend gazed at the barrier covering the ground, holding their breath in silence, waiting for the result.
...
In the Disaster Witch's support group, who had already hidden several kilometers away.
Maotuan asked Mengmeng every five seconds, "How is it? How is it?"
Mengmeng simply replied, "Master's aura has not disappeared yet."
But the outcome was still unknown.
...
In this extremely oppressive atmosphere, Gu Qianqian couldn't help but ask the system in her mind, "System, will Lu Yibei die?"
"..."
The system was silent for a long, long time before responding faintly, "It would be better if she died!"
Beside them, Nanling Yaohua seemed to sense something and glanced in Gu Qianqian's direction, frowning slightly.
...
In the distance.
Bai Kai, whose Spiritual Energy was nearly exhausted, lay collapsed on the ground, tightly gripping the baogang cang owl badge in his hand, waiting for Lu Yibei's voice to sound in his ear.
Time seemed to slow down; every minute and second was torture for him.
Then, the baogang cang owl badge suddenly vibrated slightly, and Lu Yibei's voice came through.
"Shui Ge, almost done. What should I do next? When are you letting me out?"
Bai Kai's eyes lit up, as if he had been resurrected on the spot with full health and mana. He did a carp flip and stood up, holding the baogang cang owl badge in both hands, saying, "Xiao Bei, hold on a little longer, there's one last thing to do!"
As he spoke, he focused his will on the Hua City barrier and began to control it according to the original plan.
----
Inside the barrier.
The dark green blood and flesh on the ground struggled painfully. Two different Spiritual Energy fluctuations collided, then exploded, creating air waves and aftershocks.
As far as the eye could see, everything was engulfed in crimson firelight.
The Twilight Woman lay on the ground, her body covered in small handprints that glowed like lava.
"Do you really think you can kill me like this? Ridiculous!" she said, feigning fierceness while trying to make a final struggle.
Seemingly seeing through the Twilight Woman's bravado, Lu Yibei stood with the broken sword, which was spitting firelight, on her shoulder, and said expressionlessly, "Can I take that as a roundabout way of begging for mercy?"
"..." The Twilight Woman was silent for a long time, then seemed deflated, her demeanor wilting. She gritted her teeth and said, "I can become your subordinate."
"Sorry..." Lu Yibei shook her head, "I wouldn't dare to have a subordinate like you! So..."
As she spoke, with a thought, several handprints on the Twilight Woman's body burst into intense firelight. The ignited Spiritual Energy exploded from the inside out, directly blowing off her arms.
"This one is because you almost killed my Coat," Lu Yibei said.
"Boom--!" With another explosion, the violent blast almost pulverized half of the Twilight Woman's body, her lower half completely disappearing.
In the gruesome large hole in her abdomen, no internal organs could be seen, only pieces of dark green blood and flesh writhing in the firelight.
"This one is because you killed many people and urban legend."
"Boom--!"
Another explosion erupted, and the Twilight Woman's body completely evaporated in the flames, leaving only a piece of charred remains.
However, she still had a trace of consciousness remaining.
The powerful life force given to the Twilight Woman by the Plague Tai Sui seemed to have become a Spell at this moment, making her endure severe pain without dying, only suffering endless torment.
"This one is because you affected my exam revision!"
"Damn it, I might not get a scholarship this year!" The more Lu Yibei thought about it, the angrier she got. She rushed forward again and left a few more handprints on the Twilight Woman, who was almost reduced to charcoal.
Then, she ignited the Spiritual Energy, causing an explosion.
Twilight Woman, "???"
Just as Lu Yibei was constantly "whipping the corpse" of the Twilight Woman, as if she wouldn't stop until she was reduced to dust.
The baogang cang owl badge on her chest vibrated slightly, and Bai Kai's voice came through.
"Xiao Bei, it's coming in, are you ready?"
Lu Yibei, "???"
The next moment, a gap suddenly opened in the barrier above, and a surging, vast aura, like a beast smelling blood, rushed towards the Twilight Woman.
That was the earth vein aura that the Twilight Woman controlled through her nearly completed Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.
Why did the barrier suddenly open? What a chance! Maybe I still have hope of escaping!
Seeing this, the Twilight Woman's heart filled with joy, but the next moment, reality dealt her another heavy blow.
The instant the earth vein aura passed through the barrier, dense golden Spells emerged from the barrier, tightly wrapping the surging and invisible aura, and then forcefully changing its trajectory, sending it towards Lu Yibei's body.
Using the power of the Hua City barrier to sever the connection between the Twilight Woman and the earth vein aura, and then, at the moment the connection was re-established, using the barrier's power to perform a ritual, twisting its trajectory and completing the theft, was the last thing Bai Kai mentioned.
The moment the surging golden torrent descended from the sky and merged into Lu Yibei's body, she frowned slightly. The expected situation of a surge in Spiritual Energy fluctuations and Spiritual Energy rampaging within her, similar to taking a completion potion, did not occur.
Instead, it was a very comfortable feeling, like a cool summer breeze or warm winter sun, so comfortable it made her sleepy.
But... what the hell is this thing useful for?
Lu Yibei grumbled inwardly, just as she was about to search for related information in the Great Serpent God's knowledge, she heard the Twilight Woman, who had been playing dead for a long time, let out a desperate wail as if she had come back to life,
"You, you... why would the Night Watch use the power of the Hua City barrier to do something like this for you?"
Lu Yibei was startled, "Holy crap? You're still not dead after all that?! Come on, let's continue!"
As she spoke, she rushed forward and quickly added a few more BUFFs to the Twilight Woman.
Feeling those reckless little hands, Twilight Woman, "..."
----
In a remote, deserted valley in the distance.
Bai Kai, whose Spiritual Energy was already exhausted, was holding on by sheer willpower, controlling the Hua City barrier and guiding the earth vein aura towards Lu Yibei.
Just as this process was about halfway through, footsteps came from the dense woods behind him. Someone walked up behind him, wrapped their arms around his body, and pressed against his back.
A softness that Bai Kai would never forget came from behind, followed by a wet and nimble tongue gently licking his earlobe.
"That's enough, little Bai Kai. Do you really intend to hand over the night of Hua City to a urban legend?"
"Aren't you afraid I'll arrest you for doing something like this?"
This voice, this elasticity, these curves! It was her! No mistake! Bai Kai's heart trembled violently, and his pupils contracted sharply.
His mind lost control, and his body, which was already on the verge of collapse, could no longer hold on. His vision went black, and he fell into the arms of the woman who haunted his dreams, whom he loved and hated.
At the same time, the Hua City barrier lost control and re-sealed, and the ritual to transfer the earth vein aura came to an abrupt halt.
The woman looked down at the unconscious Bai Kai, stroked his hair, and gently touched his cheek with her fingertips, murmuring, "You've gotten thinner."
"Speaking of which, what exactly is your relationship with that urban legend? You're even willing to risk your life for her? If I hadn't stopped you in time..." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"Heh, could she be your mistress?"
The woman's tone shifted to a teasing one, but a chilling light flickered in her single eye.
