“Are you guys all right?” Lian Bing asked them softly and glanced to the dead Yun Mingyue briefly; she sighed and coldly spoke. “Mo Hongling! You’re already overboard; you even killed an ordinary woman like her.”

‘Hmm? How can she be so much more beautiful than before?’ “Heh! Why should I care about an ordinary woman like her?” Mo Hongling spoke nonchalantly as she shrugged her shoulders, and she then asked her with an evil smirk on her face. “Moreover, can you stop me from killing them?”

“You will know soon enough whether I can stop you or not.” Lian Bing answered briefly. Immediately two long snow-white swords appeared in her hand, and she also released her Ice Qi and attacked Mo Hongling directly.

*clang*

However, Mo Hongling parried Lian Bing’s two swords with a long black spear, but she was still knocked back a few steps back by her attack. She was inwardly shocked by her strength. ‘Shit! How could this happen? She’s gotten stronger compared to when we fought a while ago.’

Alas, Mo Hongling did not know that Lian Bing had swallowed several kinds of pills Ling Yun had given her some time ago. Although they were all basic pills, they made her bones, meridians, foundation, core, and soul several times stronger than the average cultivator. As for her beauty, the quality of the beauty returning pill is unquestionable; it can even restore Liu Qiyue’s face that was disfigured by her.

Lian Bing didn’t give her a chance to breathe, and she had already attacked her again. Even though Mo Hongling managed to fend off some of her attacks, it was clear that she was being pushed back.

Before long, they were already moved into the garden; Lian Bing purposely led her out of the house, so their fight would not damage the Ling House.

“This time, I will definitely kill you, Mo Hongling.” Lian Bing spoke coldly as a snow-white qi enveloped her body, growing stronger and denser quickly. Soon, a snow-white circle appeared behind her, and ten swords made of Ice qi appeared around her.

‘Fuck! She’s become much stronger than before!’ Mo Hongling didn’t expect Lian Bing to become that strong, and she released her dark qi to the max.

*Clang… Clang…*

Mo Hongling tried to fend off the ice swords launched by her, but Lian Bing herself immediately attacked her as well, making it difficult for her to block her attacks.

Lian Bing’s barrage of attacks left Mo Hongling’s clothes tattered, and her body was also covered in the slashing wounds of her swords.

‘Damn it! I have to use my devil qi! Otherwise, I will die in her hands.’ Mo Hongling inwardly muttered and jumped away from Lian Bing, and she immediately released her devil qi, enveloping her body with a terrifying pitch-black qi.

Sensing the horror from Mo Hongling’s aura, Lian Bing immediately jumped back to stay away from her, and she muttered inwardly in shock. ‘What kind of pitch-black qi is that?’

“Sister Bing, what happened to that woman?” Ling Ling asked from the front of the house.

“Go inside, Ling’er!” Lian Bing ordered her beloved disciple, especially since she felt great terror in her heart.

Suddenly, Lian Bing frowned, and her body trembled slightly. She was even more shocked to see the changes in Mo Hongling, and her body underwent a significant difference. She no longer looked like a human, but she looked like a terrifying creature with two pointed horns on her forehead. Her eyes also turned completely black, and black scales appeared all over her body and a long tail with a spiked club tip.

‘What happened to her? Her aura and pitch-black qi are terrifying, and I’m even shivering from it.’ Lian Bing inwardly muttered and increased her vigilance even more, and she covered herself with ice armor, as this was the first time she had seen such a creature.

“Keh… Keh… Keh…” Mo Hongling laughed horribly and looked at Lian Bing with those black eyes; she smirked and asked her. “Are you ready to die?”

In an instant, Mo Hongling had disappeared from her sight. The next second, Lian Bing was sent flying backward, and she used her qi to stabilize herself.

‘So fast!’ Lian Bing then looked at the part of her ice armor that Mo Hongling had hit, and her eyes widened as she saw the pitch-black Qi eating away at her Ice Qi. ‘What kind of qi is this?’ “Gah!”

While Lian Bing was shocked by the pitch-black Qi, Mo Hongling had already attacked her again, and her body was being bounced back even harder.

“Sister Bing!” Ling Ling shouted from the front door of the house; she felt anxious as she saw Lian Bing, who was being pushed back by Mo Hongling’s repeated attacks.

Ling Xiya and Zhao Yao, who also saw that, clasped their hands tightly. They were worried about Lian Bing and themselves. If she lost against Mo Hongling, then they would all definitely die.

‘Sigh, this woman has become so terrible.’ Lian Bing muttered as she looked for an opening to counterattack, but Mo Hongling’s speed became faster than hers after she activated the devil qi, and it became even more difficult for her to parry her attacks. “Gah!”

Mo Hongling’s spear pierced her abdomen, but Lian Bing was lucky it didn’t hit her vital organs.

Mo Hongling suddenly lifted her leg and kicked Lian Bing in the stomach, and she was sent flying backward as blood gushed from her abdomen.

However, Mo Hongling’s attack didn’t stop there; she flew above Lian Bing and thrust her spear at her again.

Lian Bing didn’t have time to dodge it, and Mo Hongling’s spear pierced her chest, but she missed her heart.

In fact, with her current strength, Mo Hongling could easily kill Lian Bing, but she was deliberately playing around with her.

Suddenly, Mo Hongling’s tail tied Lian Bing’s legs, and she slammed Lian Bing to the ground with full force.

*boom*

A loud bang rang out from the Ling House, and flying dust covered the vision of Ling Ling and the others after Lian Bing crashed to the ground.

After a while, all the dust disappeared, and Lian Bing was lying in a small crater. Her face was deathly pale, and she vomited fresh blood from his mouth. “Cough… Cough…” ‘Ugh! My injuries are terrible! I will die in her hands at this rate, and she will definitely not let Ling’er and the others off.’

“Keh… Keh… Keh…” Mo Hongling laughed horribly as she landed before Liang Bing, and she clutched her neck tightly.

Lian Bing’s appearance was a complete mess, and her white dress was torn everywhere, making her body visible to others. Even the remaining part of her dress was also covered with blood.

“Didn’t you want to kill me earlier?” Mo Hongling mocked as she tightened her grip on Lian Bing’s neck, and she channeled the devil qi into her body, causing her ice qi to dissipate instantly.

“Ugh!” Lian Bing could only groan in resignation as Mo Hongling gripped her neck even tighter, but she could still think clearly in her mind. ‘What really happened to me? This pitch-black Qi makes me unable to use my Qi.’

“Sister Bing!” Ling Ling called out again and wanted to approach her.

Mo Hongling turned to look disdainfully at them, and she waved her hand, slamming them against the wall.

“Gah!” Ling Ling, Ling Xiya, and Zhao Yao groaned in pain after their bodies hit the wall hard. 𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚕.𝚝

“Ling’er.” Lian Bing called out softly, but she no longer had the energy to escape Mo Hongling’s grip, significantly since her pitch-black qi suppressed her ice qi.

Mo Hongling then looked at Lian Bing and sneered at her. “Heh! Unfortunately, it’s not me who will die, but you are the one who will disappear from this world.”

Soon, a dense pitch-black Qi enveloped Lian Bing’s body, and she could only scream in pain, and the black Qi was eating away her body from within.

Ling Ling had already closed her eyes; she didn’t want to witness Lian Bing’s death. Tears were already dripping from the corners of her eyes, and her heart was sliced deeply because of her master’s condition. ‘Where are you, Yun’er? Why haven’t you come yet?’

Ling Xiya and Zhao Yao also couldn’t help but stare at Lian Bing helplessly; they felt much pain after hitting the wall.

However, they suddenly heard another explosion, and dust scattered once again.

*boom*

“Who?” Mo Hongling, who was blown away, screamed loudly. Moreover, Lian Bing had already disappeared from her grip, shocking her.

“So you’re Mo Hongling from the Mo Clan? You look really disgusting.” A man’s voice sounded from within the scattered dust, startling them. Ling Ling and the others were stunned upon hearing that voice, but they were also relieved because Ling Yun had finally arrived.
