Junior sister, I really need to control you

This python looks terrifying; swallowing a person whole would probably be a piece of cake for it.

As the fresh blood meal disappeared into the distance, a fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the black python.

It had been crawling along, but now it twisted and turned, tumbling and undulating among the grass blades, like a fish swimming on the water's surface, and swiftly chased after Mu Xiaoyu.

It was in its dormancy that it smelled the incredibly delicious scent of blood and food, which is why it came specifically to find it. How could it let it escape?

……

Deep in the dense forest, sensing Mu Xiaoyu running wildly without looking back in his consciousness, Li Yinsheng rubbed his temples.

So they really chose to run away?

Although he had anticipated this possibility, he was still somewhat dumbfounded when this scene actually happened before his eyes.

This jet-black python was the opponent he had specially chosen for his junior sister.

In terms of intelligence and lifespan, this kind of monster is basically no different from an ordinary wild animal.

However, since his body has undergone a transformation, it can be seen that he possesses a shallow level of cultivation.

For example, this giant python, with its strength probably weighing several thousand kilograms, is the overlord of this mountain, and even ordinary tigers are just a meal in its diet.

After he "left," he quietly extracted a trace of human energy from his junior sister and sent it to the hibernating python.

For demons, human blood and qi are excellent tonics. Although they do not understand cultivation and have little intelligence, they will instinctively crave blood and food.

That's why we have the scene right now where my junior sister is being chased by this huge black python.

"Sigh, junior sister, don't think you'll be safe just because you ran away." Li Yinsheng smiled slightly.

He spent most of the morning doing more than just wandering around the surrounding mountains and taking a look at the monsters.

After selecting the giant python, he carefully surveyed the terrain before choosing a spot to put his junior sister down.

Because of that location, if you want to escape, you will almost certainly run in the direction that has the best view.

But if you run in that direction for a while longer, you'll end up in a dead end.

He also made some minor repairs to the surrounding vegetation, subtly "repairing" this dead-end road to make it easier to pass through.

In her panic, the junior sister would naturally run wildly along the route he had designed, the one that was easiest to escape from.

……

Mu Xiaoyu ran across the grass, feeling the wind on her cheeks, watching the grass and trees rush past in her eyes, and felt a little more relaxed.

She could hear the rustling sound of the python writhing and chasing after her in the grass, but the rustling sound was getting farther and farther away from her.

"Phew, if I keep running like this, I should be able to escape..." she thought to herself, gritting her teeth.

Damn python! Once my senior brother has a free hand, he'll stew you and make soup from you!

Before the thought had even formed, she suddenly felt her vision go blank, as if the surrounding vegetation and dense forest had vanished in an instant.

What appeared before her was a mountain wall more than ten feet high and so steep as to be almost vertical.

Mu Xiaoyu stopped immediately, otherwise she would have almost crashed into the mountain wall.

"Ah..." She looked up.

The sky was clear and blue, but she suddenly felt a darkness before her eyes.

These days she has also learned some minor spells from Li Yinsheng, including the magic of armored horses.

However, her magical power was weak, and her energy was focused on the Yin-Yang Dividing Light Sword; she only knew how to use the Armor Horse Technique.

It would be absolutely impossible to cross a cliff several dozen feet high using only this level of armor-riding technique.

The rustling sound behind me rapidly approached from afar.

Mu Xiaoyu looked around; the mountain wall was almost a semicircle, leaving her no way to escape.

"How could I be so unlucky..."

She activated the Armor Horse Technique on her body, but instead of trying to climb, she raised her sword and aimed it in the direction from which the rustling sound came.

Since there's nowhere to escape, we have no choice but to fight.

As she focused her mind and calmed herself, several sword lights floated around her. She was just waiting for the giant python to emerge from the forest with a rustling sound before she unleashed her sword lights to deliver a head-on blow!

Li Yinsheng, who was in the shadows, saw through her intentions and shook his head slightly.

A demon is still a demon. Although it is not yet respectable, it has developed some supernatural abilities and is not so easy to deal with.

Mu Xiaoyu, who was judging the distance of the python by the rustling sound, suddenly felt a void in her ears.

The rustling sound, which had grown louder and clearer as it approached from afar, suddenly disappeared just as it was about to burst out of the forest.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and all she could hear was the rustling sound of the treetops rubbing against each other.

Between the noise and the quiet, a long, dark shadow shot towards Mu Xiaoyu from between two large trees at the edge of her field of vision!

This is how it makes itself disappear: it temporarily leaves the grassland and moves by clinging to the tree trunk.

The python flew at an extremely fast speed and was at the edge of Mu Xiaoyu's field of vision, but she seemed to have been watching it the whole time. Almost the instant the python's head emerged, she bent her knees and sprang to the side, causing the python to miss its target.

Moreover, as she moved away, several sword lights around her shot towards the giant python.

Mu Xiaoyu's face lit up with joy.

Fortunately, after she cultivated her magical power, she also gained divine sense. Although the range of her divine sense was extremely small at the moment, it was still enough for her to react to a giant python at this distance.

In addition, she had activated the Armor Horse Technique beforehand, allowing her to dodge like the wind, which enabled her to gain the upper hand even in a sudden situation.

But the joy on her face immediately froze.

In her mind's eye, the sword light landed on the python, tearing open only a few inch-long gashes. Although the gashes penetrated several inches deep, they were hardly serious injuries compared to the python's size. Instead, they aroused its ferocity.

Mu Xiaoyu quickly stepped aside, and the next moment the spot where she had been standing was swept by the python's tail.

But what she didn't expect was that the python's tail also stirred up a gust of evil wind. Although she avoided the python's tail, she was blown by the evil wind, tumbled in mid-air, and fell to the ground.

Mu Xiaoyu quickly rolled over and got up, spitting out the sand and mud she was chewing on.

"Pah, pah, pah...you!"

Mu Xiaoyu looked angrily at the giant python that had turned its head to face her. She was also provoked and raised her hand to throw several sword lights at its seven-inch and three-inch points respectively!

"You damned serpent! Do you really think this princess is easy to bully?!"

Li Yinsheng, hidden in the shadows, raised an eyebrow.

My junior sister's quick and decisive response was quite good, even better than what one would expect from a pampered princess.

Although she ate well at Xuanzhen Temple during this period, she never lived a life of luxury.

However, since he specifically chose this giant python, he naturally wouldn't let his junior sister kill it easily.

At this moment, the junior sister's Yin-Yang Dividing Light Sword could easily sever trees and pierce rocks, and with a gentle sweep, it could split ordinary heavy armor in two.

However, the python's scales far surpassed those of ordinary iron armor leaves. Even if a master of external martial arts were to strike it with all his might using a hundred-times-forged steel sword, he would only leave a white mark.

If Li Yinsheng encountered such a demon on a mountain near the mortal realm, he would surely kill it.

Otherwise, if it were to suddenly rush down the mountain one day, it would surely bring disaster to many ordinary people.

However, Xuanzhen Temple is quite far removed from the mortal world, so this giant python can only be used for my junior sister to practice on for now.

Li Yinsheng kept his divine sense constantly focused on the giant python.

The cold light of the Hanming Sword flickered and swirled beside him, and the shadows of the sword danced in the air. The brass incense burner had already condensed into a yellow crane about to take flight, and two net-like magical artifacts were positioned on his left and right, ready to be opened at any moment to cover him.

If the giant python had even the slightest chance of threatening her junior sister's life, it would be immediately caught and chopped into minced meat.

However, my junior sister is doing alright so far.

With the agility granted by her armored horse technique, she fought back and forth with the giant python. Although her sword light could not seriously injure it, she herself was not hit.

During this time, she also tried to thrust the sword into the python's mouth, avoiding its incredibly tough scales.

But as she thought about it, when she actually put it into practice, her sword light was far from being under her complete control. Several attempts either struck the python's head or simply missed.

Just as the battle was in full swing, a flash of blood appeared in the giant python's eyes, and the demonic wind that had been coiling around its tail was violently flung out at Mu Xiaoyu.

Caught off guard, Mu Xiaoyu was swept by the demonic wind, her whole body flying into the air before crashing heavily against the mountain wall.

The python lost its demonic wind and seemed to slow down a bit, but Mu Xiaoyu crashed into the mountain wall and her movements were further restricted. The python immediately pressed down on her, its mouth wide open, as if it wanted to swallow her whole.

Li Yinsheng's eyes flickered, and he was about to chop it into minced meat.

Mu Xiaoyu coughed, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes. Facing the oncoming snake's mouth, she neither dodged nor avoided it, but stepped forward and thrust her sword forward!

Eight sword lights rose around the sword, but instead of shooting out directly, they instantly converged into a five- or six-foot-long python fang, which crashed straight into the python's gaping maw.

The python seemed to sense the danger and immediately shut its mouth, intending to withstand the attack with its sturdy scales as before.

The snake's fang struck the scales on the python's head, paused slightly, and then immediately pierced through, shattering the python's head into pieces.

The Mysterious and Evil Sword!

Li Yinsheng was slightly taken aback.

After his martial uncle taught him this sword technique, he had also taught it to his junior sister, but she had never been able to master it.

Unexpectedly, this moment, in her moment of desperation, allowed her to enter the door.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. This sword technique uses sword light to condense the appearance of ferocious beasts, but my junior sister has never seen any ferocious beasts before, so it's probably for a similar reason why she hasn't been able to master it yet.

She already possessed the foundation of ten sword beams, and was further provoked by the ferocity of the giant python, using its ferocity as a reference, and thus succeeded in executing the attack.

Otherwise, her sword light wouldn't have taken the initial form of a python's fang.

When Li Yinsheng wielded the Xuan Sha Xiong Xiang Sword, it took on a completely different form.

He was about to leave when his gaze fell on the giant python's corpse lying on the ground, and he paused for a moment.

The python's head had been reduced to a pile of flesh and blood fragments, and among those fragments, a round, black stone the size of a goose egg stood out conspicuously.

Mu Xiaoyu also saw the black stone, and with a look of disgust, she took out a brocade handkerchief from her Qiankun bag and picked up the black stone through the handkerchief.

In the sunlight, this black stone is the exact opposite of the python's black scales, which shimmer with iridescent colors.

It seems to absorb light, without reflecting any light at all.

But to Li Yinsheng's surprise, although he could clearly see the black stone in his junior sister's hand, ...

In his divine sense, the black stone did not exist at all.
