Fairy, don't let your golden finger chase after me!

Chapter 46: The Mature and Powerful Sword Demon, Yin Lingsu!

"Phantom Moon Sword Technique - One Sword Conceals the Void!"

With a single swing of her sword, Gu Ziyue unleashed a sword aura imbued with moonlight, instantly severing the ink dragon drawn by Dong Changfa.

"Hehehe... Surrender obediently, little fox! It will save you from further physical suffering."

Dong Changfa grinned maliciously and swung his brush, this time splashing out more than ten times the amount of ink as before.

"Your fox fur is so smooth and shiny, it's in excellent condition. If it gets torn and ruins its appearance, your uncle will be heartbroken!"

As Dong Changfa finished speaking, the ink-black sky condensed into countless copper coins, each the size of a bowl, with edges as sharp as knives.

Then, under Dong Changfa's control, these copper coins instantly formed a dark, turbulent tsunami, one after another breaking through the ancient trees blocking the way, and crushing towards Gu Ziyue with overwhelming force.

Gu Ziyue's pupils contracted sharply, and she pushed the Kunpeng Treasure Technique: Kun Fish Transformation to its limit. Her figure weaved and twisted through the torrential rain of ink coins, narrowly avoiding every fatal attack.

The ink coin brushed against the hem of her clothes, cutting fine rips.

It drifted past her hair, cutting off a few strands of purple hair.

"Hmph... Mother was right after all, not a single one of these bastard humans is any good!"

Gu Ziyue gritted her teeth and cursed inwardly, her hands rapidly forming hand seals.

"Kunpeng Treasure Technique - Kun Whale Illusion Demon Art!"

Then Gu Ziyue split into two, then into four, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds and thousands of purple afterimages filled the entire dense forest, rushing off in all directions.

"Hmm? Illusion?"

A hint of amusement flashed in Dong Changfa's eyes, and then he immediately locked onto Gu Ziyue's true form.

"Hmph... Such a petty trick, you think you can fool me?"

After saying that, Dong Changfa transformed into a streak of black light and chased after Gu Ziyue.

He then pulled out a bronze cauldron from his robes, pointed the cauldron at Gu Ziyue, and a terrifying suction force, powerful enough to steal one's soul, suddenly emanated from within.

"Hehehe... Little darling! Come into the cauldron! Let me refine you into a batch of longevity pills!"

Dong Changfa's maniacal laughter echoed through the forest. A terrifying suction force, like an invisible giant hand, grabbed Gu Ziyue. Gu Ziyue's figure suddenly froze in mid-air and was forcibly dragged back several feet.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Gu Ziyue quickly grabbed a thick tree trunk next to her, her ten fingers digging deep into the bark. The fox was pulled horizontally in mid-air and swayed up and down by the suction.

Gu Ziyue gritted her teeth, rapidly calculating an escape plan in her mind.

Should I use my Gluttonous Bloodlust? If I could activate the Gluttonous Bloodlust state and use its power to drive away this madman from the Dong family, that would be ideal...

The problem is that the opponent is a Nascent Soul cultivator. If even the Blood Frenzy can't do anything to him and he can't force him to use his power above the Foundation Establishment stage to be bounced out by the rules of Heming Mountain, then I, who have lost my mind after activating Blood Frenzy, will become nothing more than fish on the chopping board!

As Gu Ziyue hesitated, she heard a crisp cracking sound.

"Click..."

The tree trunk that Gu Ziyue was tightly holding finally broke off at the root due to the immense suction force of the cauldron.

"what……"

Gu Ziyue let out a short scream, and the entire fox was pulled into the air by the suction force, falling uncontrollably towards the dark bronze cauldron.

However, at this critical moment...

Suddenly, a sword aura descended from the sky!

The sword energy was not grand; in fact, it could be described as simple.

There was neither overwhelming sword light nor terrifying aura...

Even to the naked eye, it was merely a white streak of condensed essence, passing precisely between Gu Ziyue and the bronze cauldron.

Then, the precious cauldron split open in the middle...

The maniacal smile on Dong Changfa's face froze instantly. Then he took three steps back and swept his gaze across the dark forest around him like lightning, shouting sternly.

"Who is it? Who is so blind as to dare to ruin the good deed of the Dong family of the Western Wilderness!"

Dong Changfa looked around, but all he heard in response was silence.

Dong Changfa's heart sank slightly. To be able to accurately shatter his precious cauldron with the power of a Foundation Establishment level cultivator, the person's precise control over spiritual energy meant that the cultivator must be at least a Nascent Soul level expert.

Hmm? Could it be the reinforcements the young master mentioned earlier?

Dong Changfa was filled with doubt and subconsciously turned around to look in the direction where Gu Ziyue had originally been.

The spot was empty; the Foundation Establishment stage fox demon that he had been chasing for so long had vanished!

"Come out!" Dong Changfa shouted sternly, drawing a black barrier in front of him with his paintbrush to protect himself.

"Stop playing tricks! I know you're nearby!"

No sooner had Dong Changfa finished speaking than a lazy voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

"Oh? Playing the supernatural? What nonsense are you spouting?"

The voice carried a hint of intoxication, lazy and nonchalant, like the half-asleep babbling of a drunkard who had just been woken up.

"Haven't I... always been behind you?"

Dong Changfa felt a chill run down his spine and turned around abruptly.

He saw a dark-skinned, tall woman with wild beauty in her eyes, who was lazily sizing him up.

The woman held a wine gourd in one hand, tilted her head back and took a big gulp, while under her other arm was the vanished Gu Ziyue.

Gu Ziyue was held under the woman's arm, her legs dangling in mid-air, her long purple hair hanging down like a mop, dragging all over the ground.

"Ah! Teacher...!"

Gu Ziyue looked up and saw that it was her teacher who had saved her, and tears streamed down her face.

"Why are you so late? If you had been any later, I would have turned into a pill!"

"I'm so sorry, Your Highness..."

The woman looked down at Gu Ziyue and grinned, revealing her healthy white teeth.

"I drank too much last night and overslept."

"So... it took a little while."

Gu Ziyue felt extremely wronged and pointed to Dong Changfa in front of her, saying, "Teacher, it's him!"

"This is the guy who bullied me! He even said he was going to kidnap me and use me to make longevity pills!"

The woman looked in the direction Gu Ziyue was pointing, her slightly lazy golden eyes narrowed, and her gaze languidly fell on Dong Changfa.

At this moment, Dong Changfa was completely terrified.

He recognized the woman in front of him...

Yin Lingsu, the Sword Demon of the Southern Wilderness.

The Grand Elder of the Southern Wilderness Heavenly Demon City, and also the last surviving member of the ancient Yinglong clan, a peak Nascent Soul expert!

Looking across the entire Great Wilderness, who wouldn't know the name of such a ruthless person?

Even a Nascent Soul cultivator like the Dong family patriarch had to be wary of Yin Lingsu.

Since she debuted, at least twenty Nascent Soul stage cultivators have died at her hands, and countless Nascent Soul stage cultivators have also died at her hands!

That fox, was it her disciple? And I was just about to refine her disciple into a pill?

As Dong Changfa thought of this, the back of his clothes was instantly soaked with cold sweat.

"Senior Yin! It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding! What just happened was all a misunderstanding..."

Yin Lingsu raised one eyebrow and looked at Dong Changfa in front of her with a half-smile.

"Oh? You know me?"

Dong Changfa wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and bowed.

"I heard of the Sword Demon's illustrious reputation from my ancestor, and have long admired him..."

Before Dong Changfa could finish his flattery, Yin Lingsu interrupted him.

"Old devil Dong? What good things could he possibly say about me?"

Dong Changfa quickly smiled and said, "The ancestor said... Senior, your swordsmanship is unparalleled in this world..."

"I have long admired you, senior... What I just had with your disciple was truly just a friendly exchange, and I had absolutely no intention of harming you. What I said earlier was merely a joke..."

"But... I may have frightened your disciple with my words. I am willing to offer all my possessions as compensation, just asking that you spare my life."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ziyue immediately panicked and struggled desperately under Yin Lingsu's arm: "Teacher! He wasn't just joking with me! He really was going to eat me..."

Yin Lingsu smiled and gently patted Gu Ziyue's head to signal her to be quiet.

Then she turned her gaze back to Dong Changfa and slowly said to him.

"Well, since your attitude is somewhat sincere... hand over your storage bag, and then take another sword strike from me."

"If you survive this sword strike, then get lost."

"If you can't catch it... then it's your fate!"
