Hearing Miss Rabbit's exclamation, Suolang Baima was stunned for a moment, then his body retreated rapidly, coming to her side, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know this crazy woman?"
Miss Rabbit glanced at Suolang Baima, her gaze lingering on his bloody and blurred eye for a moment, then she nodded slightly, "I know her, and we're very familiar..."
Hearing this, Suolang Baima was overjoyed. He opened his lips, just about to say something to Miss Rabbit, when he saw her feet suddenly exert force. Accompanied by a loud crack of the ground, her body shot out like a nimble rabbit, the fire axe in her hand raised, sweeping towards the chasing girl.
The axe blade and the soft sword met, producing a piercing hum.
After the initial clash, the two figures briefly separated, then gathered momentum and collided even more fiercely.
"Clang—Clang—Clang—!"
The sound of metal colliding was continuous. Although it was a sword and an axe colliding, it reminded Suolang Baima of the humming of the morning bell in the temple of his hometown. Crushed stones flew, and thick smoke filled the air.
He was stunned, urging his Spiritual Energy to push away the surging airwaves that attacked him. He looked at Suo E in confusion, not understanding, "Aren't they very familiar?"
Suo E looked straight ahead and said indifferently, "The kind of familiarity that means they won't rest until one of them is dead."
Suolang Baima, "..." He had only interrupted that guy watching a movie, which was at most a conflict.
Now, how did it turn into a life-and-death struggle?
----
Since killing the Twilight Woman and regaining her freedom, Miss Rabbit's only goal was to personally kill the little thief who stole her witchs egg.
Every time she woke up at midnight from a dream, she would always remember that burning hotel and the figure surrounded by flames that made her extremely fearful. Over time, this had become a knot in her heart.
Not to mention that Lu Yibei's current appearance was somewhat similar to before, like she had grown from a child of eleven or twelve into a girl of eighteen or nineteen. Even if she turned into a pig, dog, cow, sheep, stone, or big tree, as long as the aura originating from the witchs egg on her body still existed, Miss Rabbit would not be able to not recognize her.
Having recognized her, it was natural to settle both old and new scores.
Admittedly, when she saw Lu Yibei, Miss Rabbit's first reaction was fear. However, after experiencing the initial fear, her inner emotions were gradually replaced by anger.
When I personally killed the Twilight Woman, I had already overcome fear once. Today, I will definitely overcome it a second time! Miss Rabbit thought.
Thus, she leaped forward without hesitation, raised the axe blade, and brought it down in a jumping slash.
With a roar, a dark golden light flowed over the axe blade. The next moment, a brilliant blue fire light rose up, pouring down towards Lu Yibei's face.
Śaśaka threw himself into the fire without being extinguished. While possessing extremely high fire resistance, he also mastered the Moon Yin Fire. This was an ability that Miss Rabbit had only recently mastered proficiently.
For a time, within the cinema hall, fire light spread, thick smoke rolled, and the crisp crackling sound of walls and building materials being burned was incessant.
----
Since their parting in Hua City, Lu Yibei had not seen Miss Rabbit for a long time. After the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, for safety's sake, she had conducted a carpet search of every corner of Hua City that might hide urban legend.
Although her purpose was to confirm the life and death of the Twilight Woman, who had become a Family Member of the Plague Tai Sui, she also did not discover any movements of Miss Rabbit during this process.
Miss Rabbit had disappeared from Hua City as if she had evaporated from the human world.
Now, Miss Rabbit suddenly appearing here surprised Lu Yibei greatly. However, in the current situation, she had no time to "catch up" with Miss Rabbit.
Time was pressing. Within the limited time, killing one was killing, and killing three was also killing. Whoever blocked her from killing Suolang Baima, ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) she had to kill them!
Otherwise, once the Power of the Hundred-Armed Giant lost control, she would be the one who died.
"Look into my eyes!" Lu Yibei said in a low voice to Miss Rabbit, a sentence that was extremely alluring.
"Shut up!" Upon hearing this, Miss Rabbit instantly used Spiritual Energy to block her hearing and interfere with her vision, while also expanding her spiritual sense to the maximum extent, compensating for the sensory abilities she had lost as a result.
She had once been a Family Member of a Witch Seed, had personally hunted and killed the Twilight Woman, and had even attempted to devour a witchs egg. Her understanding of the various characteristics and abilities of Witch Seed urban legend was comparable to that of the Witch Seed itself. If she were to change professions and become a Demoness Hunter for certain indescribable organizations, she could probably make a fortune.
Look into your eyes? Like Suolang Baima, lie down and let you Charm me at will? Do you ♦ think I'm an idiot? Miss Rabbit thought fiercely, her attacks becoming even more relentless.
While feeling the premonitory thoughts flashing in her mind and carefully dealing with Miss Rabbit's attacks, Lu Yibei pondered inwardly.
Damn it, as expected of the Twilight Woman's Family Member, completely different from that big Big silly guy!
I need to think of other methods.
So, seeing the axe blade whistling down from above, she raised her sword, pouring Spiritual Energy into every inch of muscle in her slender arm. With a slight cracking sound of muscles and bones, she unleashed the most exquisite move of the Taihe Gentleman Sword.
Taihe Gentleman Sword·Jun Tiansou!
----
The sword blade was swung out, a white light tearing through the fire light, flying forward rapidly, like a comet dragging a long, snowy white rainbow light.
The vast sword energy formed by the convergence of Spiritual Energy shot out, like a rolling sea of clouds, moving rapidly. The Moon Yin Fire and the sword energy collided, instantly dissipating.
Watching that sword light, Fu Xinyi was clearly somewhat startled. As a favored disciple of the Da Chunyang Palace who had studied the Taihe Gentleman Sword Illustration since childhood, she knew the power of that sword better than anyone.
If it weren't for the strange flames spewing from the axe blade of the urban legend with rabbit ears, which seemed to have extremely strong corrosiveness and were inextinguishable, this sword strike would have probably collapsed half of this floor of the shopping mall building.
But...
Was that really a sword move of the Taihe Gentleman Sword?
Why wasn't this move recorded in the Taihe Gentleman Sword Illustration in the sect? Fu Xinyi thought.
She could clearly feel that the sword move used by the white-haired girl had a very high degree of compatibility with the sword techniques she had studied since childhood, very similar to the last move of the Taihe Gentleman Sword - Taihe Gentleman Sword·Yao Tianhua. It seemed to be from the same source, but she had never seen this move before.
Damn it, I can't figure it out!
If Senior Sister were here, she would definitely be able to see what was going on. Fu Xinyi thought, irritably scratching her hair.
Then, thinking of Hua Sang, she suddenly felt completely unwell again.
A strong man who controlled the power of the snow mountain, a rabbit-eared urban legend who controlled strange flames, a Demoness who used a highly imitated Taihe Gentleman Sword...
None of them were someone she could defeat. She, a mere B Level Psychic, was caught up in a life-threatening event of this level. No matter how she thought about it, it was Hua Sang's fault!
----
Suo E watched the battle between Miss Rabbit and Lu Yibei from a distance. Seeing that Miss Rabbit had a slight upper hand but couldn't win for a long time, he couldn't help but frown.
Compared to before, she had become very strong, even able to slightly suppress the King of Weird Tales of Hua City.
Unfortunately, this advantage had not reached the point of crushing.
Speaking of strange things, how was Suolang Baima injured by that guy just now? And why wasn't that guy using her ability to control fire?
Suo E thought, looking at Suolang Baima, wanting to ask him about the details of his confrontation with Lu Yibei just now. But when he turned around, he was stunned.
He saw that Suolang Baima had acquired many scratches and abrasions at some point. His lips were purple, and his face was so pale that it had lost its human color.
"You, what's wrong with you?"
Suolang Baima was currently being tormented by the severe pain that had invaded his lungs and abdomen, unable to speak, and didn't know how to explain his current situation to Suo E.
The snow and wind barrier he had created with Spiritual Energy should have been almost impossible to break through by the turbulent currents stirred up by Lu Yibei and Miss Rabbit's battle. For some reason, it was like a lock had been opened, hitting him with every shot, always hitting his weak defense points, leaving behind wounds.
And Suo E, who was standing beside him, clearly hadn't deliberately defended, but was like an unharmed person, completely unscathed.
Suolang Baima felt as if he had been favored by the malice of the goddess of fate, with the pendulum of misfortune hitting his forehead every time.
What made him feel even more frightened was that his blood seemed to have been affected by some power during the battle with Lu Yibei, becoming unlike his own, causing Spiritual Energy to become restless within his body, bringing immense pain.
"Spiritual, Spiritual Energy, my Spiritual Energy..."
After a long while, Suolang Baima finally managed to squeeze out a few words through his teeth, then raised his trembling hands, wanting to express the rest of his words with gestures and warn Suo E.
However...
"Crack!"
Suo E grabbed Suolang Baima's hand and said seriously, "Spiritual Energy? What's wrong with your Spiritual Energy?"
"..."
Suolang Baima was silent for two seconds, then like a dying flicker, he said a complete sentence to Suo E, "Poisoned, my Spiritual Energy, it seems to have been poisoned by that woman..."
After speaking, his Spiritual Energy fluctuations suddenly intensified, and layers of extremely hard frost, as if from a ten-thousand-year-old glacier, appeared on his body, freezing his Spiritual Energy and blood, entering a state of suspended animation, protecting himself.
However...

Suo E looked at his hand, which was unfortunately frozen along with the rest of him, then looked at Lu Yibei, feeling a strange Power eroding his Spiritual Energy. Then he looked at the two sword energies flying straight towards his forehead, and the light faded from his face.
“......”
You are poisoned, get away!
Why are you reaching for me?
————
“Little thief, you can’t hold on much longer, right?”
After another fierce exchange, the moment Miss Rabbit and Lu Yibei's figures approached each other, she suddenly grinned and said this sentence to Lu Yibei.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yibei's heart trembled. In that moment of distraction, what greeted her was the axe blade spitting fire, a barrage of attacks like a violent storm.
“Clang—Clang—Clang—!”
Forced back by Miss Rabbit's fierce attacks, Lu Yibei retreated step by step, breaking the floor tiles under her feet and plowing two cracks in the shattered concrete.
Damn it, how did she know I couldn't maintain this state for long? Lu Yibei thought uneasily.
As Qingji had taught, in combat, exposing your weakness to the enemy's sight is a terrifying thing.
Just then, Miss Rabbit continued, “Heh heh, don't pretend to be tough. I can already tell you haven't said a single piece of trash talk this time. Your state is clearly not right!”
Miss Rabbit was too familiar with her opponent. In countless past encounters, she had never been as quiet during a fight as she was now.
Not only that, Miss Rabbit also clearly felt that Lu Yibei's movements in combat were unusually strange, jumping up and down like a mischievous monkey.
If her spiritual perception hadn't detected any Spiritual Energy fluctuations, she would have even suspected that Lu Yibei was maliciously setting up some large Spell.
Lu Yibei, “......”
That's it? Is it wrong for me not to speak? Can your basis for deduction be a little more reliable?
As Lu Yibei was thinking, Miss Rabbit closed in again. As sword and axe collided fiercely, she again floated over a cold, faint remark, “Looks like you can still hold on? However, your sword, I'm afraid, is about to break.”
As Miss Rabbit spoke, she was shouting excitedly in her heart.
Come on! Let me see the ability you stole from me, burn me with flames, and then I will let you feel what despair is!
Like a phoenix undergoing nirvana, bathed in flames, completing revenge from a condescending position, this was a scene that Miss Rabbit had fantasized about countless times in her heart.
The sword is about to break? Hearing Miss Rabbit's words, Lu Yibei was stunned for a moment. The instant she pulled away from Miss Rabbit, she glanced at the soft sword in her hand, and her pupils trembled slightly.
In just one or two minutes, hundreds of fierce clashes had left dense nicks on the soft sword, and the edge was already rolled, but that wasn't the key.
With the blessing of the Taihe Gentleman Sword, let alone a blunt sword, even a wooden stick could kill.
What truly startled Lu Yibei was that the soft sword had been corroded by the Moon Yin Fire spewed from Miss Rabbit's fire axe, and cracks had appeared on its surface.
The Moon Yin Fire could even corrode the Twilight. Females Family Member's already foul and bloody Spiritual Energy, let alone Fu Xinyi's arbitrarily chosen C+ Level Spiritual Energy item, which only considered lightness and appearance and not sturdiness.
The next moment, Miss Rabbit stepped forward again, the axe blade in her hand hacking down from top to bottom with wide, sweeping movements. As Lu Yibei raised her sword to block, her arms suddenly rotated with a strange arc as if they had no bones, and the curve of the axe head, like an iron hook, suddenly clamped onto the soft sword.
Then...
Twist and break.
“Cling—!”
Accompanied by a crisp sound, the soft sword broke into several sections. Before it even hit the ground, it turned into clusters of dark red powder resembling rust.
【The rusty fire axe cut the body in half】
A terrifying premonitory thought flashed through her mind. Lu Yibei was startled. In the nick of time, she desperately twisted her body, her spine emitting a painful groan, her slender waist feeling as if it were about to break from the twisting.
“Rip—!”
“Thud—!”
The soft sound of clothes being torn and the muffled sound of flesh being cut occurred simultaneously.
The sharp point of the fire axe grazed Lu Yibei's back, leaving a gruesome wound over twenty centimeters long on her back.
The impact of the Spiritual Energy fluctuations carried by the Moon Yin Fire poured into her body. Lu Yibei's vision went black, and she quickly used her movement technique to retreat explosively. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Each step she took back produced a loud sound, and each step was dissolving and buffering the impact of that axe blow. The heavy steps made her feel as if the bones in her legs were about to shatter.
But...
It's better to bleed! Lu Yibei glanced at her back out of the corner of her eye, thinking sinisterly. freēwēbnovel.com
【She walked into the “net”】
Lu Yibei looked ahead at the pale tentacles only she could see, feeling the premonitory thoughts flashing in her mind, and a subtle, cunning smile flickered in her eyes.
The moment Miss Rabbit chased after her, Lu Yibei suddenly injected Spiritual Energy into the large net woven from thin, thread-like pale tentacles, using Mengmeng's innate skill.
Then...
Droplets of blood, like water beads rolling off a lotus leaf, slid down Lu Yibei's fair back, converging into lines, connecting into patches, and dripping onto the pale tentacles, staining the tentacles red as if cotton threads were dyed with red ink.
In an instant, scarlet threads appeared in the cinema hall, as if transforming into a spider's nest woven with blood.
The next moment, the pale tentacles turned from illusory to real. Miss Rabbit, who was stepping forward to chase, plunged headfirst into the large net woven from tentacles.
The moment she touched the large net, Lu Yibei's eyes darkened. Like a female spider pulling in its web, she said coldly, “Next, enjoy the nightmare!”
【She fell into a state of Charm】A premonitory thought flashed through Lu Yibei's mind.
Using Mengmeng's innate skill against Miss Rabbit – if it doesn't hit, there's no point. Using the Charm ability against Miss Rabbit – she won't fall for it, so there's no point either.
But Mengmeng's innate skill combined with the Charm ability – then there's a point!
At least, that's what the premonitory thought said...
————
The moment Miss Rabbit was entangled by the tentacles stained with blood, she realized she had been hit. She struggled fiercely, trying to break free.
Then...
She suddenly felt as if the surrounding air had stopped flowing, becoming thick and strange, like falling into a bottomless pool of blood.
Immediately after, whispers echoed in her ears, ethereal and seductive, yet tinged with a hint of madness.
Those whispers were conveying incomprehensible information to her. She felt as if her head was about to explode, and her thoughts became erratic. Then, she saw the scene she feared most in her life.
She saw a young girl in tattered clothes, holding a brand-new Mr. Rabbit doll, sitting happily cross-legged on the grass on a hillside.
For some reason, the girl suddenly started laughing, as if going mad, tearing the doll apart bit by bit, using her hands to tear, her teeth to bite, disemboweling the doll, tearing off its limbs, tearing off its ears, and gouging out its eyes.
During this process, Miss Rabbit felt a hallucination-like, heart-wrenching pain, as if the girl was tearing her own body.
“Thud—!”
A muffled sound suddenly rang out. A crowbar, reaching out from somewhere unknown, struck the girl's head heavily.
One time, two times, three times...
Blood spurted out.
The girl fell to the ground, her eyes wide and round, gradually losing their light. Then her body was dragged by the dark figure that attacked her, towards the distant woods.
Blood trailed a long path on the ground.
Staining the grass, staining the wildflowers, staining the broken Mr. Rabbit...
This was the story of a displaced girl who was lured and killed by a perverted missionary with a high-end toy. "Mr. Rabbit" witnessed the entire process, saw the killer's face, but remained silent.
In the dim twilight, crows cawed on the branches, as if saying that it was also an accomplice.
So, when the girl returned again, as compensation, it became her family member and her favorite toy.
This is the story of the Twilight Woman's birth, and also Miss Rabbit's biggest psychological trauma in her life...
