The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

The intense heat of the flame penetrated the barrier, continuously searing her skin, leaving her in unbearable pain.

"Suanni Divine Techniques, Golden Crow Divine Skills, you keep surprising me more and more... Not good!"

Sima Demoness had not finished speaking when her face changed dramatically. Alarms rang in her mind, and she immediately turned to attack behind her.

Lu Yaoyao seized the right moment, threw a talisman directly at her, then turned and ran.

"My master's life-saving talisman, I've heard it can unleash a blow from the Divinity Transformation Realm. Why don't you test it for me!"

As soon as Lu Yaoyao finished speaking, the golden talisman in front of her began to tremble violently, as if it contained an extremely powerful force eager to break free.

The aura of the Divinity Transformation Realm spread out, and the powerful pressure made the surrounding air feel suffocating.

Sima Demoness's face changed drastically. She had no time for anything else and instantly gathered all the energy, previously used to combat the Golden Crow, to protect herself, trying to fend off the possible fatal strike.

"Ah—"

At this moment, the Golden Crow, which had already consumed most of its energy, took advantage of Sima Demoness's distraction and crashed into her body with full force.

The intense burning made Sima Demoness let out a heartrending scream.

But the talisman in front of her, which was supposed to unleash an attack comparable to Divinity Transformation, did nothing. It just fizzled out with a white puff of smoke and turned into ashes.

"I told you, you're as dumb as those other two fools, but you didn't believe me!"

Refreshed with vitality and spiritual power from the four-colored petals, Zhou Qing emerged from the flames behind her, striking with a Broken Sword in his hand.

No matter how quick Sima Demoness reacted, she couldn't avoid this fierce strike.

The Broken Sword pierced through her abdomen, and blood spurted out, dyeing her purple-red robe an even deeper red.

"Seeking death!"

Sima Demoness was both astonished and furious. Her face twisted with rage as she endured the intense pain from her abdomen and grabbed Zhou Qing's right hand that held the sword.

She then forcibly gathered spiritual power, swinging a blood-red scythe aiming for Zhou Qing's throat.

The speed was astonishingly fast, showing she was ready to fight Zhou Qing to the death.

Zhou Qing's face changed color, realizing the danger. He hadn't expected this woman to be so ruthless and decisive, launching such a fierce counterattack despite her severe injuries.

With no time to waste, his left hand formed a seal, summoning a Silver Dragon that roared into existence, passing between the two of them, blocking most of Sima Demoness's attacks.

There was a loud "clang" as the scythe struck the Silver Dragon, sending sparks flying.

Zhou Qing seized this opportunity to escape quickly.

But despite his timely evasion, a thin line of blood appeared on his throat, with blood seeping out.

"That was close!" Zhou Qing's face changed, and he felt a wave of lingering fear.

Indeed, a Nascent Soul Great Perfection! Even with multiple simulations at the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace, he had almost had his throat cut.

If not for his timely reaction and the use of the 'Silver Dragon Hand' technique as a shield, he might not have survived this encounter.

"Pfft—"

Sima Demoness looked at the large gash in her abdomen, her face extremely grim. Despite all her precautions, she was still injured by that rusty Broken Sword.

According to Blood Bone, the Broken Sword carried an unknown deadly poison. Once wounded by it, bleeding wouldn't stop easily within a short time.

"You treacherous scoundrel!"

Sima Demoness glared at the distant Lu Yaoyao, cursing loudly before stuffing a handful of Antitoxic Pills into her mouth.

"I got nervous and threw the wrong one!"

Lu Yaoyao, with a frightened look, feigned innocence by sticking out her tongue, then pulled out another golden talisman and waved it.
