Pear Blossom also said a little exasperatedly, "You stinking girl, I was kindly inviting you to join the Sacred Cult, and you refused, but you dared to toy with me. If I catch you later, I'll teach you a good lesson!"
"Aren't you two going to act? What's with all the nonsense?"
As Xie Shenghua spoke, she directly attacked.
Since her fame, she had never been so embarrassed. These past two days, thanks to Zi Linling, she had lost all her composure as a sect leader.
Therefore, she had no patience to exchange pleasantries with Zi Linling and directly threw a "Wooden Cage" at her.
Fu Liuyun's lips moved, but in the end, he said nothing.
Zi Linling's eyes turned cold. She used the Phantom Dragon Step and easily dodged the attack.
Then, she released a wisp of divine sense, which condensed into a soul needle, and shot it towards Xie Shenghua's forehead.
Xie Shenghua's cultivation had already reached the middle stage of the Huayuan Realm. Although she had not yet cultivated a sea of consciousness, she was no stranger to divine sense.
It was precisely because of this that she was greatly surprised. A spirit cultivator at the ninth stage of Body Tempering could actually use divine sense to attack. This could only be described as astonishing.
Xie Shenghua finally understood that Fu Liuyun blocking Zi Linling and then letting her escape was not because Fu Liuyun had deliberately held back, but because he had been caught off guard by Zi Linling's move.
However, shock was shock. The Huayuan Realm was not like the Juling Realm, where one was completely ignorant of divine sense attacks. Thus, she quickly moved to the left.
A cunning smile flickered across Zi Linling's face. She had intentionally revealed her trump card, the soul needle, from the start for a purpose.
Xiong Tai, Pear Blossom, Xie Shenghua, and Fu Liuyun had blocked her path back to the valley. Especially Xie Shenghua, who was directly in front of the green vines.
And Zi Linling's direct use of the soul needle would definitely catch Xie Shenghua off guard. If she could injure Xie Shenghua, that would be for the best, but if not, Xie Shenghua would inevitably have to dodge.
Zi Linling wanted Xie Shenghua to dodge.
As soon as Xie Shenghua moved to the left, Zi Linling, stepping on the Phantom Dragon Step, directly burrowed into the green vines. Su Dan Novel Network
Her cunning voice echoed from outside the green vines, "Thank you, Sister, for leaving me a way out!"
Xie Shenghua was so angry that her teeth were about to shatter. This was the third time Zi Linling had escaped from her hands.
"You stinking girl, wait until I catch you, and I'll show you!"
Xie Shenghua's furious roar echoed through the sky.
Xiong Tai and Pear Blossom hadn't reacted yet when Zi Linling's silhouette had already vanished from their sight.
Afterward, they heard Zi Linling's words.
Although the two of them didn't believe Xie Shenghua had deliberately let Zi Linling escape, they still looked at Xie Shenghua.
Xie Shenghua was already fuming with anger because Zi Linling had escaped. Seeing them looking at her, her anger flared up.
She glared fiercely at the two of them and roared, "Why are you looking at me? Hurry up and chase her!"
After speaking, Xie Shenghua was the first to burrow into the green vines.
Xiong Tai and Pear Blossom exchanged glances and then plunged in as well.
Fu Liuyun wore a wry smile. He recalled that the first time Zi Linling escaped from the four of them, she had used this very tactic of sowing discord.
Using the same stratagem twice and succeeding both times made Fu Liuyun have to admire Zi Linling's intelligence.
Her intelligence could be described as close to demonic!
As Fu Liuyun was marveling, he heard Xie Shenghua's extremely angry curses coming from within the green vines.
"You little slut, I will have eternal enmity with you!"
Following that, Xiong Tai's furious curses could also be heard.
"You stinking girl, I will skin you alive!"
Then came Pear Blossom's.
"Damn girl, if I catch you, I'll throw you into the latrine!"
Fu Liuyun was taken aback and muttered to himself, "I wonder what heaven-defying and unforgivable thing that girl did to make these three curse so violently!"
After speaking, he quickly burrowed into the green vines.
After passing through the green vines, the entrance to the valley came into view.
At this moment, Xiong Tai, Pear Blossom, and Xie Shenghua were standing at the entrance of the valley, facing a dense array of ferocious beasts and demonic beasts.
Fu Liuyun was startled and rushed over.
When he saw the three of them covered in beast dung, he couldn't help but frown.
"What's going on? Did you stir up the beast tribe's nest?"
The beast army had already surrounded the entrance to the valley tightly, staring menacingly at Xiong Tai and the other two.
Moreover, from a distance, the beast army was densely packed within the valley and was still gathering.
Fu Liuyun's heart trembled as he looked at the beast army before him.
Xiong Tai, who was reeking of filth, glared at the late-arriving Fu Liuyun and said angrily, "Do we have that kind of ability?"
Pear Blossom also looked at Fu Liuyun with ill will and said, "Whether or not you have any connection with that girl, we are now in the same boat. You'd better clarify who is friend and who is foe!"
Xie Shenghua looked at the clean Fu Liuyun, a trace of jealousy flashing in her eyes, and said with a hostile tone, "Sect Leader Fu, do you know this little slut's background?"
Xiong Tai and Pear Blossom naturally understood the hidden meaning in Xie Shenghua's words and turned to look at Fu Liuyun warily.
Fu Liuyun shook his head and said, "I'm not entirely sure, only that she is the former good-for-nothing of the Zi family!"
"Good-for-nothing?"
Xiong Tai, Pear Blossom, and Xie Shenghua exclaimed in unison.
Xiong Tai looked back at the dense beast army and sneered at Fu Liuyun, "If she's a good-for-nothing, then we, being played around by a good-for-nothing, aren't we the worst of good-for-nothings?"
Pear Blossom glared at Xiong Tai with a dark expression before saying to Fu Liuyun, "Sect Leader Fu, it's not that I doubt your words, but this matter is too unbelievable. Are you sure that girl is the Zi family's good-for-nothing?"
Fu Liuyun nodded and said, "I am sure, she is indeed that good-for-nothing, and she admitted it herself. Moreover, ten days ago, when she set the Battle of Nine Peaks at Duanhun Cliff with my disciple Mo Qingcheng, she truly had no trace of spiritual power within her."
His two "indeed"s shocked Xiong Tai, Pear Blossom, and Xie Shenghua to an unprecedented degree.
Ten days, from a good-for-nothing to the ninth stage of Body Tempering. What kind of cultivation speed was this!
Good-for-nothing? If such a person is a good-for-nothing, then how many people on the entire Tianyuan Continent are not good-for-nothings?
"Alright, now is not the time to discuss this. What's going on here?"
Fu Liuyun's gaze returned to the beast army, and he asked with a frown.
"What else could it be? That stinking girl did it!"
Pear Blossom was the first to snap back to reality, a strange gleam in his eyes.
Then, he recounted what had happened after the three of them entered the valley.
