Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"The Overlord Conquers the Enemy!"

Liu Lanyu gripped the Overlord Spear tightly in her right hand and unleashed a powerful sweeping strike, combining fierce spear momentum with considerable Yuan energy, aiming directly at Dai Qisi's vital heart meridian!

bass!

The sharp spear tip pierced through the air like an unstoppable army. Its power was comparable to a mid-level Xuan-grade martial art. Any martial artist below the Yuanhai Realm would die upon contact with it and would find it impossible to contend with!

"A futile struggle."

However, facing Liu Lanyu's all-out attack, Dai Qisi still looked disdainful. She simply raised her hand slightly and extended her index finger in mid-air.

Whoosh...! Clang...!

Dai Qisi lightly tapped the void with her index finger, and the next moment an incredibly terrifying invisible soul force swept outwards and erupted, instantly knocking back Liu Lanyu who was attacking from the opposite side. Even the Overlord Spear in the opponent's hand was bounced away and stuck upside down in the ground!

"This power is... soul power?!"

With her offensive broken, Liu Lanyu's face changed slightly. However, before she could recover, Dai Qisi suddenly appeared in front of her like a ghost.

"You vile woman, even if you fight with all your might, you are no match for this protector."

Dai Qisi raised her beautiful eyes slightly, coldly staring at Liu Lanyu at her feet. The next moment, her eyes suddenly shone with a large amount of sinister purple energy, which was extremely eerie. "It's over...!"

"Uh! You...!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Lanyu felt as if she had been struck by a heavy hammer. Her body stiffened and then collapsed slowly like a deflated balloon.

Illusion is a mental attack that targets the soul. Its targets are not limited to men or women, young or old. Anyone with weak soul power will be deeply trapped in it and unable to extricate themselves. At best, they will lose their mind and consciousness; at worst, they will die on the spot!

"This is... a demonic eye?!"

Seeing this, Xia Xihai's expression also changed slightly. He no longer cared about the so-called women's dispute and leaped towards Dai Qisi opposite him, seemingly intending to save her.

Snapped!

However, the very next second before Xia Xihai launched his attack, Dai Qisi's right hand transformed into a claw, instantly grabbing Liu Lanyu's neck. A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she said, "Hmph, too late!"

"stop!"

Xia Xihai abruptly stopped, his face grave, as if afraid that if he took another step closer, the unconscious Liu Lanyu would die tragically at the hands of Dai Qisi!

"Stop? On what grounds?"

Dai Qisi glanced indifferently at Xia Xihai across from her, her beautiful eyes remaining unmoved, her tone cold, "Could it be that you've fallen for this slut?"

"Qisi, Junior Sister Liu is no match for you. Let her go. If you want to fight, I'll fight you!"

Without responding to Dai Qisi's question, Xia Xihai frowned slightly, his gaze returning to the familiar yet unfamiliar figure in purple robes opposite him. A subtle, complex expression then crossed his solemn face.

"Heh, now that things have come to this, you're finally willing to call me by my name...."

Upon hearing this, Dai Qisi merely gave a cold laugh. At this moment, her right claw was still tightly gripping Liu Lanyu's jade-like neck. At the same time, she said in a meaningful tone, "Xia, I thought you had been hiding like a coward in Falling Star Academy for too long and had forgotten about me..."

"Qisi, what happened back then was a personal grudge between you and me, and it has nothing to do with Junior Sister Liu now. Let her go! I'm begging you...!"

After saying this, Xia Xihai knelt down on both knees and kowtowed heavily to Dai Qisi opposite him, seemingly willing to abandon his dignity as the vice dean of Luoxing Academy in order to save Liu Lanyu.

"Hehe, hahahaha...!"

Seeing Xia Xihai suddenly kneel down and beg for mercy, Dai Qisi was stunned for a moment, then her beautiful eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and her tone became increasingly frantic, "You surnamed Xia, what are you doing? Begging me? Hahahaha, how ridiculous...!"

"I just don't understand, what's so good about this bitch? Not only is she weak and ugly, but she's also savage and uncouth, her mind is only focused on martial arts, she has absolutely no sense of human relationships, what is it about this bitch that you like?!"

"Kiss, actually I...!"

"shut up!"

Interrupting Xia Xihai again with a furious outburst, Dai Qisi's eyes were bloodshot and red. Her beautiful face, now hidden behind a purple veil, revealed a rare, uncontrolled rage. "Enough! I will never forget what you did to me back then...!"

"Fine! You intend to save this wretched woman, is that it? This protector will grant your wish!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Dai Qisi exerted force with her right palm again, leaving several clear blood marks on Liu Lanyu's jade neck. The latter's face turned purple and her breath became weak, as if she would die at any moment!

"Junior Sister Liu!"

"Damn it, what is this witch from the demonic sect planning to do?!"

"What on earth happened? Why would the vice-dean kneel before this demonic cult vixen...!"

Seeing this, Yuan Tiangang and the others, who were caught in a bloody battle, also cast surprised glances, but they were powerless to help.

After all, apart from Dai Qisi, the Illusionary Protector, the rest of Xu Yiping and the others were not to be underestimated. Not to mention that the entire Falling Star Valley was filled with Wusheng Cult members, and the battles were still raging!

Therefore, even if Yuan Tiangang and the others wanted to help, they were simply powerless to do so!

"Xia Xihai, today it's either her death or yours. As a former 'acquaintance,' I, the protector, will give you a choice! However..."

Realizing that Liu Lanyu was barely clinging to life, Dai Qisi's tone shifted abruptly. Her gaze turned icy, and her entire being radiated murderous intent. "You only have ten seconds to consider...!"

...

Meanwhile, in a corner outside the Sealing Star Platform

"Wow...!"

Just as Cao Keying and Leng Ying were about to collect Lu Feng's body, they saw the latter suddenly turn pale, open his eyes abruptly, and vomit several mouthfuls of foul-smelling black blood!

"Junior Brother Lu Feng!"

"Lu Feng, you...you're not dead?!"

The sudden change caused not only Cao Keying and Leng Ying's faces to change drastically, but also Ren Lingyun, Duan Lang, Xia Zhenhu and others who were originally heartbroken. They were all dumbfounded, as if it was the first time they had ever seen such a strange thing as "the dead coming back to life"!

"Old Master, if you hadn't spoken up in time to remind me, I'm afraid I would have been trapped in the cycle of illusions forever. Thank you!"

Before he could respond to the shock of the crowd, Lu Feng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and, still shaken, transmitted his voice to Gu Canyang inside the treasure basin.

At first, he couldn't remember anything, but after Gu Canyang reminded him, Lu Feng finally remembered that he was under Dai Qisi's illusion. As for the so-called beauty surrounding him and the blessing of having multiple wives, it was pure daydreaming!

However, as the old saying goes, misfortune may be a blessing in disguise, and a blessing may be a misfortune in disguise!

With Gu Canyang's help, Lu Feng not only successfully broke Dai Qisi's illusion, but also greatly enhanced his own soul power, stepping into the seventh level of soul power, comparable to a seventh-grade alchemist!

"Young Master Lu, don't be in such a hurry to thank me. This trouble isn't over yet..."

Faced with Lu Feng's thanks, Gu Canyang inside the Treasure Basin merely shook his head slightly, showing no joy whatsoever. Instead, he spoke solemnly.
