["Bang...bang...bang..."]

The dull thuds of impact echoed continuously across the square.

Inside the protective barrier, Zhao Qiuyue felt the terrifying tremors emanating from all directions; a bead of cold sweat had already seeped from her forehead.

"Ye Jinghong, I admit you're quite good, but this Holy Maiden still has some trump cards up her sleeve!"

She tried to salvage some dignity with her words.

But you remained silent, only launching attacks.

After a moment, Zhao Qiuyue's tone softened.

"Ye Jinghong...how about we each take a step back and end this here?"

【"Bang!!!"】

She was met with an even heavier blow.

Zhao Qiuyue: "..."

"Alright, alright, stop now, I give up."

After a long pause, she waved her hand helplessly, her words carrying a hint of relief.

However... "Bang!"

"Ye Jinghong, why aren't you stopping?"

Sensing the dwindling spiritual energy within her body, Zhao Qiuyue's previously maintained composure vanished instantly, and her voice finally betrayed an undisguised panic.

【"hehe"】

You sneered, then raised your hand and unleashed another whip strike.

[Click!]

The protective barrier shattered without the support of spiritual energy. Feeling the whooshing sound as it passed before her, Zhao Qiuyue closed her eyes in terror.

[Then...]

The expected pain did not occur.

[Zhao Qiuyue was about to open her eyes when, in the next moment, she felt a dizzying sensation. When she came to her senses, she was being pressed against your lap in an extremely humiliating position.]

"Ye... Ye Jinghong, what do you want to do? I am..."

You grinned, then raised your hand and slapped him without hesitation.

"Ah~!"

A agonizing scream, tinged with pain, echoed throughout the square.

[Zhao Qiuyue, who had initially tried to grit her teeth and bear it, hesitated for a moment...]

"Waaaaah...it hurts...it hurts so much!"

"I admit I was wrong! I really admit I was wrong! Please stop hitting me... Waaah..."

She gripped your skirt tightly with both hands, her once elegant hair now disheveled, and her fair, delicate face was streaked with tears.

The arrogant little brat with her hands on her hips has vanished, leaving only a little kitten crying and hiccuping.

【"Waaah..."】

Zhao Qiuyue choked up for a moment, staring at you with her big, watery eyes in disbelief.

"I've already admitted my mistake, why are you still hitting me?"

"Uh, sorry, it's just a habit."

You offered a half-hearted apology before finally lifting her off your lap.

Zhao Qiuyue, her face flushed, quickly backed away, covering her back, her eyes fixed on you warily.

[I was just about to say something harsh, but seeing your slightly narrowed eyes, I instinctively shrank back, then turned and fled the square in a disheveled state without looking back.]

You stood there, your gaze following the fleeing figure with amusement, a satisfied smile flickering in your eyes.

[Tsk, just as I expected...]

[To deal with this arrogant little brat, you have to give her a good beating.]

The entire venue fell silent.

All the cultivators watching the battle stared in disbelief at this scene, remaining silent for a long time.

【"Hehehe~ Interesting"】

At that moment, a familiar, sweet laugh rang out from the corner. Zi Sha looked at the girl in the red dress on the field with great interest.

Just then, you turned your head and your eyes met, and for a moment you felt a sense of disorientation.

[Only about eleven years have passed, yet it feels like an extremely long period of time has been covered.]

[When you see her again, she is still that aloof Golden Core cultivator, but in your eyes, she is no longer someone you need to look up to.]

"Yu'er, what do you think of this woman?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yu subconsciously rubbed her chin, pondered for a moment, and then said with a serious expression:

"Reporting to Aunt, this woman possesses abundant spiritual power and seems to also cultivate her body. As for other aspects... my cultivation is too low to discern them."

Zi Zi's charming smile froze instantly, and her eyes twitched slightly.

Is this what she's asking about?

【"Sigh~"】

Seeing her nephew's serious expression, Ziwei helplessly raised her hand and rubbed her temples.

[Forget it, can we really expect this blockhead to get any ideas?]

As you scan the room, the candidates for sainthood in the stands all avoid your gaze; none dare to meet your eyes.

[The elder on the sidelines, seeing this, was just about to announce the result when a figure suddenly leaped onto the arena and landed steadily in front of you.]

"Ye Jinghong, just admit defeat."

The girl's eyes held an undisguised contempt, her tone arrogant and dismissive, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

You look up and see that the newcomer is only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, but his face looks somewhat familiar.

After a moment's thought, you suddenly remembered that the person was none other than Ye Jinghong's adopted junior sister. Moreover, Ye Jinghong learned from his investigation that she was also the biological daughter of that adopted master.

【Heh...interesting.】

A mocking glint flashed in your eyes as you raised the long whip in your hand, your tone carrying a strange undertone.

"Junior sister, for the sake of our shared sect, I'll let you make the first move, how about it?"

【What?】

The girl looked as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world, her face filled with disbelief. How dare Ye Jinghong, who used to be so obedient to her, disobey her?

After a brief moment of surprise, a surge of offended anger welled up inside her. She abruptly pointed her finger at your nose and launched into a tirade:

"You bitch! I told you to admit defeat, are you deaf?!"

At the same time, a voice transmission sounded in your ear:

"Jinghong, give up this opportunity for now. I will make it up to you later."

[Pfft~]

You couldn't help but laugh out loud; this father and daughter are truly bizarre.

"What are you laughing at?"

The girl glared angrily.

"Do you also have a magical artifact protecting you?"

You tilted your head, your gaze sweeping over her from head to toe. Before she could answer, you let out a soft sigh, your tone full of regret:

"Even with magic treasures, it's too late for someone in the early stages of Foundation Establishment..."

【What?】

The girl was stunned. Before she could react to the murderous intent in those words, a loud shout suddenly rang out from the sidelines:

"Ling'er, get off the stage quickly!"

"Too late!"

The moment the words left her lips, a scarlet whip, carrying terrifying power, swept out.

"How dare you!"

A figure on the high platform rushed towards the arena, only to be slapped back by a giant palm of spiritual energy that appeared out of thin air.

【"boom!"】

【"Bang!"】

Two voices rang out almost simultaneously.

The difference is that the former only broke the jade pillar at the edge of the arena, while the figure in the arena was forcibly sucked into a cloud of blood mist...

You turn your head, gazing at the distant, blood-soaked man through the swirling mist, his eyes already bloodshot with rage.

You then chuckled softly, your words laced with undisguised sarcasm.

"Oh dear~ I'm sorry, Master. Remember to tell me earlier next time!"

(Just kidding... I was held up by something this morning, so I'll only post three chapters today. I'll arrange my time better later and try my best to avoid this situation before I finish posting more chapters~)
