Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 70: Mid-Foundation Establishment Stage!
Seeing Shen Youqing's bloodied and mangled hand, Xiao Ke had already taken a step forward, but in the end, he abruptly stopped.

She wanted to become stronger, and she wanted to take this opportunity to break through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

Shen Youqing is probably only one step away from the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. If he rushes up there, he will only cause Shen Youqing to lose all his previous efforts.

The blood on the back of Shen Youqing's right hand acted like a stimulant for the spirit beasts, causing them to suddenly attack fiercely despite their fatigue.

They quickly surrounded Shen Youqing, wanting to tear this despicable cultivator to pieces.

"boom."

Shen Youqing slammed his fist into the head of the spirit beast on the left, then flipped in mid-air to dodge the fangs and claws of the other spirit beasts.

"Bang." After flipping over in mid-air, Shen Youqing quickly swung out a punch.

Two punches, delivered without reservation, took down both spirit beasts.

After two spirit beasts died, the remaining spirit beasts quickly banded together.

They watched Shen Youqing warily, their low growls emanating from their throats muffled and threatening.

Shen Youqing glanced at her right hand, her beautiful phoenix eyes hardening with a cold sharpness, like a drawn sword.

However, his bloodied and mangled right hand trembled involuntarily, several of the bones in his hand were dislocated, and the whole hand looked strange and bloody.

The spirit beasts seemed to communicate for a moment before launching a joint attack on Shen Youqing.

Shen Youqing ran two steps forward, then used the momentum to leap and flip directly onto the head of a spirit beast.

Her slender arm rose, her fist clenched and fell like raindrops.

She seemed oblivious to the pain as blood gushed from the spirit beast's sunken skull, splattering onto her face.

After quickly dealing with one spirit beast, Shen Youqing set his sights on another.

The spirit beast charged at Shen Youqing, intending to die.

As Shen Youqing punched the spirit beast, another spirit beast rushed over quickly.

"Junior Sister Youqing!"

"careful!"

Amidst the worried voices of the others, Shen Youqing had no time to dodge and was quickly knocked away by the spirit beast.

Her body flew backward and crashed into a thick tree trunk, causing her internal organs to nearly displace, making her vomit blood.

Just after Shen Youqing was knocked away, another spirit beast quickly chased after him, its fangs, covered in rotting flesh, lunging at Shen Youqing's neck.

Upon seeing Yan, the group moved. Some drew their swords, some threw talismans, and some tossed fireballs.

"Pfft-"

Before their attacks could even land on the spirit beast, the sound of sharp blades piercing flesh rang out.

"Fuck me!"

A voice, seemingly without any sign of weakness, rang out as the enormous spirit beast was kicked away and then blasted to pieces by sword energy and talismans.

Shen Youqing got up from the ground, holding a long knife in his left hand.

The remaining three or four spirit beasts immediately cowered upon seeing this.

"Pah!" She turned her head and spat out a mouthful of blood, then picked up her long sword and chased after the spirit beast that had turned and fled.

Xiao Ke watched Shen Youqing's stubborn and aloof back and silently raised his hand to stop the other three.

"Let her go." The cold voice was deep.

If Shen Youqing isn't allowed to kill those spirit beasts herself, she'll probably hold a grudge.

Chu Jianyan chased after Xiao Ke, saying, "Junior Sister Youqing is already badly injured, how can we let her fight again!"

“It’s precisely because things have come to this point that we should let her do the killing.” Jiang Xuan’an said, stopping his senior sister. “Senior Sister, we should just watch from a distance.”

Xie Changyan followed at a distance that was neither too close nor too far, carrying his long sword, to ensure that he could kill the spirit beast immediately if it turned around and attacked, thus preventing Shen Youqing from being injured again.

"What are you running for! You bunch of cowards, come and fight me head-on if you dare!" Shen Youqing cursed as she chased after them, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood before continuing, "Stop! If you run again, you're not human!"

……

Shen Quelin watched helplessly as Shen Youqing chased after several late-stage Foundation Establishment spirit beasts with his sword. Had they been even a fraction slower, the long sword would have sliced ​​off their hind legs.

"What's going on?" Lin Jinyao looked at the group speeding away. "That looks like Junior Sister and the others?"

"It's her, I'll go check."

After leaving those words behind, Shen Quelin turned and chased after Shen Youqing.

The other curious disciples followed suit.

During the pursuit of the spirit beast, Shen Youqing suddenly felt a change within his body.

Her meridians were widened, and the rich wood-elemental spiritual energy in the dense forest surged into her body, causing her meridians to ache from the rapid increase in spiritual energy.

Shen Youqing had to distract himself by guiding the spiritual energy within his body, which eventually converged in his dantian.

"Breakthrough?!"

Chu Jianyan, who has a wood-type spiritual root, was the first to notice the changes in Shen Youqing.

Chu Jianyan was a little dumbfounded when she saw the dense wood-type spiritual energy surrounding Shen Youqing.

Did they really break through?
Wait a minute, isn't this breakthrough a bit too brutal?!
As the spiritual energy within her body became more abundant, Shen Youqing's footwork became even faster as she weaved through the flowers and trees.

With a flash of light, Shen Youqing had already rushed in front of the spirit beast. She twirled the long sword in her hand, and as soon as she stood still, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Shen Quelin's afterimage flashed by.

"Mid-Foundation Establishment!" Shen Youqing said while coughing up blood, his clear phoenix eyes shining excessively brightly, like the blazing sun.

Shen Quelin looked at the overjoyed and excited Shen Youqing, his lips pressed tightly together, his eyes filled with worry, and nothing but worry.

Lin Jinyao, who had caught up with Shen Youqing, heard her words and looked at her pale face, feeling both heartache and worry. "Are you risking your life for the sake of advancing and breaking through?"

Shen Youqing opened his mouth to speak, but a handful of pills were instantly stuffed into his mouth.

Fortunately, the pills melted instantly upon entering the mouth; otherwise, Shen Youqing would have been killed by this handful of pills.

"What are you doing!" Shen Youqing sheathed his long sword and slapped Shen Quelin's arm twice with his left hand. "Are you trying to choke me to death?"

Shen Quelin wrapped his arm around Shen Youqing's right arm, and then he saw the bloody, mangled hand.

Her once fair and beautiful hands are now deformed, with the skin and flesh turned outwards.

Seeing her uncontrollably trembling hands, Shen Quelin's tightly pursed lips turned slightly pale. He looked at Shen Youqing, as if he wanted to scold her, but seeing her like this, he couldn't utter a single harsh word.

When had Shen Youqing, who was pampered and spoiled, ever suffered such a serious injury?

He is useless.

Lin Jinyao looked at Shen Youqing's hand and gasped, her eyes almost overflowing with heartache.

How much pain must my junior sister be in!
Xiao Ke came up, took out a porcelain bottle and poured out hemostatic pills and bone-regenerating pills, then pulled Shen Youqing's arm.

Shen Quelin glanced at Xiao Ke but did not stop him.

The powder that landed on the wound was somewhat irritating, and Shen Youqing pulled her hand away. Then Xiao Ke wrapped his arm around her and held her in place.

Shen Youqing glanced at Xiao Ke and obediently said thank you.

Xiao Ke remained silent.

Shen Quelin looked at the rapidly healing wound, and his unpleasant expression softened slightly.

Looking at Shen Quelin's still gloomy and ugly face, Shen Youqing pursed her lips, unsure of what to say.

"Don't be angry," Shen Youqing said weakly. "Shen Quelin, please don't be angry..."

Seeing Shen Quelin like this, she felt bad.

"I'm just angry at myself." Shen Quelin's cold voice turned deep, and the young man looked much older.

Seeing Shen Youqing's anxious expression, Shen Quelin blamed himself and said, "It's my fault for being useless and failing to protect you."

"..." Speechless, Shen Youqing raised his left hand and gently stroked Shen Quelin's head.

Shen Quelin, who had just been slapped, glared at her with hostility.

Shen Youqing, that Muggle!
