Chapter 72 - Is It Funny That the Reincarnated Senior Sister Is Also Being Pursued?

As she watched her bright red face, even her originally seductive appearance had become distorted, Bai Lian suddenly wanted to tell her - she's just a child, don't act like one... But she had a feeling that if she really said that, Ji Le Ming Fei would definitely lose control... though it seemed like it was already happening. Ji Le Ming Fei laughed darkly, her expression growing even more sinister. "Another annoying little brat has arrived. Good little sister, you have so many flies around you." Jiang Miao's face immediately showed a confused expression as she turned and asked, "Sister Black Lotus, did I say something wrong? Why does she seem so angry?" "Cough, maybe Little Miao's words struck a nerve with her..." Bai Lian responded awkwardly to Jiang Miao, but she was cautious of Ji Le Ming Fei's next move. The sword she had just stabbed out had indeed injured Ji Le Ming Fei a bit, but the opponent had not lost their combat ability because of it, while she had already exhausted all her spiritual power. She needed to quickly recover her spiritual power during this time, to protect Jiang Miao from Ji Le Ming Fei's next attack. Just as both sides were secretly on guard, there suddenly came a faint sword sound from a distance. The sword sound seemed to come from beyond the sky yet also seemed close at hand, like ripples in a calm pool, spreading outward in circles. Everyone present's face changed drastically. "This... is the Three Thousand Li Banishment?!" Jiang Miao seemed startled. "How can the Taihua Sword Sect even use such a thing?" She looked at Bai Lian with a respectful gaze. "Sister Black Lotus, aren't you the legendary immortal treasure or elixir that can take human form?" Bai Lian was speechless. "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I stop being human?" "But this is the Three Thousand Li Banishment! The last time the Taihua Sword Sect used it was when they were suppressing the Secret Sect two hundred years ago!" Jiang Miao pointed to herself like a successfully praising girl. "It can't be coming for me, not even my master qualifies!" That's quite a qualification. Bai Lian silently complained, since Jiang Miao's master was Lin Miaoyin, the master of the Tianxuan Sect, a genuine formless cultivator. If she appeared near the Taihua Sword Sect, not to mention using the Three Thousand Li Banishment, Leng Ningshuang might have to come out personally. The Three Thousand Li Banishment was a unique technique of the Taihua Sword Sect. When it was exerted with full force, the spiritual power of practitioners within a three-thousand-li radius of the Taihua Sword Sect would be suppressed, and spiritual beasts would have to bow their heads. This was a remarkable immortal technique and a symbol of the power of the Taihua Sword Sect. Of course, this time the Three Thousand Li Banishment did not truly cover three thousand li; its range probably only covered the vicinity of Gusu. The pervasive spiritual power was green, lotus-shaped, indicating that only Gu Qing Qing could have used it. She looked up into the distance, her eyes involuntarily showing warmth. Master... Ji Le Ming Fei's face had turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. Upon realizing that someone from the Taihua Sword Sect had used the Three Thousand Li Banishment, she knew her fate was sealed. Not to mention obtaining White Lotus' pity, if she stayed here any longer, she might even lose her life. Her expression suddenly became particularly vicious - she was unwilling to just give up like this! She suddenly looked at Bai Lian, her sleeves increasing in water. Gu Qing Qing was far away, perhaps she could take this opportunity to steal Bai Lian! However, in the instant she made her move, a streak of green light flew from the sky, slashing towards her neck. Ji Le Ming Fei had to forcefully change her posture to avoid having her neck snapped, but was still pierced through the chest. She spat out a mouthful of blood, her eyes on the verge of bursting. She had spent two years planning and had exhaustively expended all her efforts for Bai Lian. Now, she was just one step away from her goal, why couldn't she succeed? Why would the heavens bring such a perfect Bai Lian to her and then mercilessly take her away? Why?! "Bai Lian! I will get you sooner or later!" She uttered this resentment but did not dare to stay any longer, quickly fleeing in the opposite direction. Bai... Hearing the name Bai Lian, Jiang Miao's heart skipped a beat. She turned to look and found Bai Lian leaning weakly against her shoulder, having fainted without her noticing. She hesitated for a moment, then bit her lip and, carrying the unconscious Bai Lian, jumped onto her aircraft, quickly flying away in the opposite direction. Less than a breath after she left, Gu Qing Qing's figure appeared in mid-air. Beside her was the anxious-looking Mu Jian Li. "Senior Gu, Senior Sister was here just now, please quickly save her!" "Such impatience, what etiquette is that?" Gu Qing Qing looked faintly at Mu Jian Li. "Is this how Senior Sister taught you to control your emotions? In the end, they were still competitors. Originally, she wanted Mu Jian Li to try to verify Bai Lian's true identity, but unexpectedly, before a few days had passed, this girl had been charmed and lost her head, and upon seeing her Senior Sister in danger, had become so panicked that even her insight into the sword had failed to function. Gu Qing Qing couldn't help but feel it would have been equally embarrassing for her to find out, to think that she had wanted to follow behind Bai Lian to spy, but had her steps unexpectedly delayed by an inexplicable spirit weapon. That spirit weapon posed no threat to her, yet she needed to exert some effort to break free. Later, she learned from Mu Jian Li that Bai Lian was in a critical situation, and even though she had anticipated it, she couldn't resist using the Three Thousand Li Banishment. She would have to spend some effort explaining this when she returned, which was really a hassle. But Senior Sister was so fond of Lian'er, in this situation, she was probably secretly worrying about her, so how could she allow anything to really happen to Lian'er? She had just panicked and forgotten. "But Senior Sister..." Mu Jian Li bit her lip lightly, realizing she had been too hasty. "Rest assured, Lian'er has already been rescued," Gu Qing Qing sensed the battlefield's atmosphere, pondered for a moment, and said. "The Secret Sect... no wonder that vixen has so many annoying spiritual weapons. It seems that the sweeping two hundred years ago did not wipe them out completely and enabled them to rise from the ashes. "Huh? Is this the celestial charm of the Tianxuan Sect? What are people from the Tianxuan Sect doing here?" "The Tianxuan Sect?" Mu Jian Li's eyes brightened. "Jiang Miao saved Senior Sister!" "Jiang Miao?" Gu Qing Qing was slightly dazed, then suddenly realized something. "The Tianxuan Sect's little saint, Jiang Miao? "Yes." Mu Jian Li nodded. "She suddenly appeared at the Taihua Villa two days ago and fought vehemently with the old ancestor of the Taihua Villa. Although she was not at a disadvantage, she was ultimately saved by Senior Sister. "I see." Gu Qing Qing said, her eyes suddenly filled with a smile. She suddenly came up with an amusing idea. "Lian'er's situation doesn't need to be worried about temporarily. As for the matter of the Twin Starsword, go and send a message to the Heavenly Axis and Divine Kun. Ask their Star River Hermit to meet me at the Taihua Sword Sect. Lian'er, Jian Li is willing to drink your enchanted soup, but what about others? The Tianxuan Sect's Jiang Miao and the Divine Kun's Mu Xinghe. Even in our past life, they made you quite a headache. I wonder if you can handle them in this life?"
