Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 725 - 13 Magic Cloak Fist_3
The pressure on the frontline battlefield suddenly plummeted, and Chen Lingyun relaxed quite a bit, leisurely directing the Yin Ghosts to sidestep, flank, and interweave, creating opportunities for the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu to strike.
She manipulated the ghostly creatures through the Nine Heavens Yin Demon Prison Banner, acting as a buffer, so there was no negative impact on her.
Tang Xiaolian, however, had no such tools to assist with her control, relying solely on willpower to connect. As she directed the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu to slay the enemy, the violent and murderous intent of the gu also transmitted back to her, exacerbated by the Illusion Realm, nearly driving her into a bloodthirsty frenzy, when suddenly, a fist swung before her eyes, immediately frightening her back to clarity.
"See," Yan Yu said, "threatening to hit you would definitely be ineffective, but if I actually hit you first, then threaten you, you’ll be in fear, unable to go mad... so was that punch just now worth it?"
"Not worth it!" Tang Xiaolian cried out.
Yan Yu knew she was just being stubborn, so he just smiled and said nothing, taking the opportunity to kill a few enemies that were approaching Chen Lingyun.
Their teamwork, now three strong, was vastly superior to the previous duo’s efforts in passing the barrier. Chen Lingyun’s Ghost Summoning was indispensable on the battlefield, leaving her no time to worry about whether Tang Xiaolian would succumb to demonic possession, whereas Yan Yu was adept at multitasking, able to focus on the battlefield while also ready to address any flare-up from the girl beside him at any moment.
If there was any sign of Tang Xiaolian losing control, a slap or a kick would immediately follow, causing her pain enough to restore her senses!
Of course, this tactic only worked on Tang Xiaolian. After all, this girl naturally admired strength; if she was hit, she would at most whine and not hold a grudge.
If it had been Zhou Hongyu, previously brainwashed by the Red Lotus Demon Sound, a slap from you would have meant a fight to the death... so Yan Yu had no choice but to sacrifice his charming appearance, allowing her to exploit it as she wished to stabilize her Dao Heart.
Medication must be prescribed accurately, rescue must be tailored; what remedy to use depends on the personality. This is the wisdom of a Reincarnator with experiences spanning two lifetimes!
As the flow of enemies ceased, they passed the Killing Life Gate by the skin of their teeth and without mishap. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Tang Xiaolian, holding her stomach, sat on the ground and whined:
"Yan Yu, you hit too hard, you owe me medical expenses!"
"I’ll give you ten thousand to shut up," Yan Yu said impatiently, "deal? If not, forget it."
"How is ten thousand enough?" Tang Xiaolian protested, "You’ve hit me like a dozen times... I can’t let you hit me for nothing; at least a billion!"
"Then I’ll give you two billion and you take ten more slaps from me," Yan Yu said.
"Chen Lingyun, control your captain!" Tang Xiaolian couldn’t take it anymore and turned to seek help, trying to pull Chen Lingyun into her camp, "Who treats people like that without any reason!"
But would Chen Lingyun indulge her? All she did was laugh and say:
"The next barrier is the Anger Barrier, where you must not get angry. I think Xiaolian still harbors a lot of resentment, so maybe Yan Yu, you should vent some of that anger for her, lest she gets disqualified as soon as we enter."
"Alright," Yan Yu said, beginning to crack his knuckles threateningly, "still holding a grudge, it seems I haven’t beaten you into submission."
"Captain Yan, stop!" Tang Xiaolian could only beg for mercy, "I’m not angry anymore. For Captain Zhou’s sake, please spare me."
"Captain Zhou told me to discipline you however I want, it doesn’t matter if I break you," Yan Yu said.
"Impossible!" Tang Xiaolian cried out hastily, "Captain Zhou would never say that! I want to see it in writing!"
"I’ll show you after I’m done, be good!"
