Chapter 71 - Is It Funny That the Reincarnated Senior Sister Is Also Being Pursued?

The enchanting Ji Le Ming Fei narrowed her eyes and spoke coldly, "Bai Lian, you've only just broken through the Teng Yun realm. Do you really think you can stop me?" "Whether I can stop you or not, that remains to be seen in battle," Bai Lian replied as her spiritual energy coalesced into several small swords around her. "In that case, I'll humor you, little sister." Despite saying so, Ji Le Ming Fei didn't hold back in her attack. If Gu Qingqing were to find out what she did to Bai Lian, she would be in deep trouble. So, she needed to either catch Bai Lian before Mu Jian Li found Gu Qingqing, or make a quick escape. She didn't want to give up the opportunity she had worked so hard for over the past two years to obtain Bai Lian's favor. Therefore, she decided to end the fight quickly. She opened her arms, and countless celestial maidens' illusions surged out from behind her, heading relentlessly towards Bai Lian. Bai Lian was somewhat overwhelmed as she had just broken through the Teng Yun realm, and her spiritual energy had not fully recovered. She also had to allocate part of her spiritual energy to suppress the tingling sensation in her lower abdomen caused by the charm spell, forcing her to adopt a defensive stance to stall for time for Mu Jian Li. She couldn't help but feel a bit aggrieved. In the game, she used to carry a backpack full of potions and props before every battle, specializing in offensive abilities and armed with strategies, making the battles enjoyable. But now, not to mention enjoyment, she had hardly been in any battle in peak condition since she entered the Gusu City. The difference between the two situations was truly frustrating. In fact, her skills far surpassed Ji Le Ming Fei's, coming from a prominent family and possessing memories from two lifetimes. In the beginning, she could even rival Ji Le Ming Fei. However, as Ji Le Ming Fei's attacks became more fierce, she gradually began to feel the pressure. Ji Le Ming Fei noticed her predicament with spiritual energy and a smug smile appeared on her face. "Sister Bai Lian, the game is over for you. With the little spiritual energy you have left, it's probably difficult to even suppress the charm spell." "You could have experienced unparalleled joy just by following me, so why bother refusing?" Ji Le Ming Fei taunted. "Heh..." Bai Lian panted heavily, unsure if it was due to exhaustion or the burning sensation in her lower abdomen. She sneered, "You don't know how many innocent girls you've manipulated. Why pretend to be tough here?" "Even in death, I will never yield to your wish!" She put on a tough front, but in reality, she was at her wit's end and only engaged in banter with Ji Le Ming Fei to buy time. However, she didn't wait for Gu Qingqing; instead, an unexpected person arrived. A cheery voice rang out from below where the two were fighting, "Hey, how can such a place full of mortals have such a strong spiritual energy fluctuation? The trees here are all dead, what a pity!" The two battling figures were surprised as they looked down, only to see the cute and lively Jiang Miao standing there, hands on her hips, looking up at them. And at this moment, she saw Bai Lian's face and a look of surprise appeared on her own face, "Oh, Black Lotus Sister, what are you doing here?" Bai Lian's eyes lit up with joy—Jiang Miao hadn't left yet. Without hesitation, she said, "Jiang Miao, use the charming ghost!" "Wha... How did you know, Black Lotus Sister... Oh, alright!" Before Jiang Miao could even question how Bai Lian knew about her ghost talisman, she instinctively took out a stack of yellow papers. As they touched the air, the papers began to burn, and from the burning smoke, several evil spirits emerged. These evil spirits, upon sighting Ji Le Ming Fei, gleamed with sinister light, sticking out their long tongues as they dashed towards her. "Damn it! You disgusting male ghosts, don't come near me!" Ji Le Ming Fei's face turned pale as she swiftly retreated. An opening! Bai Lian's eyes lit up and she added, "Jiang Miao, use the sorrowful ghost!" "Okay!" Jiang Miao responded, throwing another stack of talismans, which turned into sorrowful ghosts and flew towards Ji Le Ming Fei. Ji Le Ming Fei, just as she dealt with a few lovesick ghosts, was then entangled by the sorrowful ghosts. She realized her spiritual energy had become particularly sluggish, making even her movements slower than usual. Before she could disperse the ghosts and restore her energy, Bai Lian's attack descended, and she couldn't dodge, resulting in being pierced by Bai Lian's sword in the shoulder. She let out a sharp scream, casting a venomous look at Bai Lian, tainted with malice. Bai Lian didn't hesitate to retreat after her strike, floating down to Jiang Miao's side. "Black Lotus Sister, are you okay?" Jiang Miao asked, looking worried at Bai Lian's scarred body. "I'm fine, Jiang Miao. You came just in time!" Feeling relief, Bai Lian was extremely happy and couldn't help pinching Jiang Miao's cheek. The Ghost Talismans of the Tian Xuan Sect could enlist evil spirits, perhaps not as powerful as the sword fanatic from the Tai Hua Sword Sect, but versatile. Different spirits had unique uses, and when used adeptly, they could overwhelm enemies several realms higher. In the game, Jiang Miao was definitely the indispensable support character Bai Lian always took! Jiang Miao let her fiddle while she thought about other things. After leaving, she had inquired about Bai Lian's information. However, Bai Lian, accustomed to keeping a low profile after her rebirth, had hardly interacted with anyone in Gusu City outside of Tang Chu Huan, leaving Jiang Miao with hardly any useful information. However, she faintly heard the term "Great Senior Sister" in relation to Black Lotus Sister from the Tong family's servants. But isn't the Tai Hua Sword Sect's chief martial sister Bai Lian's big brother? How could another senior sister suddenly appear? Tang Gongzi referred to her as the White Fairy, and she seemed to know Bai Lian very well. Bai Lian seemed familiar to her. Even in battle, there was an illusion that she had fought alongside Bai Lian for a long time. With all these observations, she couldn't help but entertain the absurd idea in her mind. But she didn't dare to confirm. She was more afraid of the feeling of disappointment after having some hope compared to having no hope from the beginning. "Black Lotus Sister." "Jiang Miao, help me...," Bai Lian suddenly said. Jiang Miao was taken aback and then noticed Bai Lian's body swaying unsteadily. She quickly supported Bai Lian's slender waist. By this time, Ji Le Ming Fei had recovered from her pain and glared at Bai Lian, saying, "You've hurt your sister so much. Hence, I've changed my mind. I'll train you to be my toy!" Jiang Miao widened her eyes and pointed at Ji Le Ming Fei in disbelief, "You... How can you say something so shameless! You have no shame, no upbringing!" "Did you lose your parents when you were young?!"
