Dai Lizi brandished the Nine Dragon Whip and struck the ground with a resounding "crack!"
An Quan Tao shuddered, involuntarily letting out a soft gasp, "Hmm... Ah..."
Li Xiaonan's forehead twitched as he instantly understood the situation. It turned out they were a couple, and such peculiar preferences explained why they had failed to Transcend Tribulation and had to shift to Scattered Immortal.
"Please call me Your Majesty!" Dai Lizi said coldly, holding the whip in one hand.
An Quan Tao cast a flirtatious glance, appearing as if she wanted to say something but held back.
Li Xiaonan and his partners were utterly stunned; their principles lay shattered all around them, impossible to pick up. Taking a deep breath, Li Xiaonan wielded the Carefree Fan and shouted, "Call your sister!" before charging forward.
Meanwhile, An Quan Tao added fuel to the fire, shouting, "Queen! Whip him! Whip him!"
Li Xiaonan exchanged glances with the Ice Maiden, who nodded and swiftly slapped An Quan Tao away.
It was hard not to sigh; both were at the same level of Scattered Immortal, yet they were clearly not on the same tier.
The Nine Dragon Whip clashed repeatedly with the Carefree Fan. Dai Lizi's expression remained calm, but her seemingly chaotic whip technique hinted at something unusual.
Li Xiaonan frowned; this Scattered Immortal seemed a bit off in the head, but he had to admit her strength was formidable. If he hadn't just broken through, he wouldn't even have qualified to engage her.
The Nine Dragon Whip lashed out continuously, making it difficult for Li Xiaonan to close in. He could only rely on Swift Steps to dart around Dai Lizi, knowing he was in for a fierce battle.
Meanwhile, An Quan Tao had been subdued by the Ice Maiden and was trapped inside a floating bubble.
Dai Lizi cast a cold glance at the frowning An Quan Tao before quickly averting her gaze, her expression unchanged. The Nine Dragon Whip struck without hesitation, aiming directly at Li Xiaonan.
Caught off guard, Li Xiaonan felt a jolt of tension when the Nine Dragon Whip hit him, but then a wave of joy washed over him. A faint golden light radiated from his body, directly repelling the Nine Dragon Whip.
Dai Lizi furrowed her brow and leaped backward in quick succession, wielding the Nine Dragon Whip to protect herself.
Li Xiaonan frowned, thinking to himself: This woman is incredibly agile! It seems that the Heavenly Gang Golden Body has become so formidable that it can completely disregard the attacks of a Scattered Immortal. It looks like challenging higher levels is no longer a difficult task; with such an unbreakable defense, he could easily take down any Cultivator below the Great Ascension stage. Even a first-tier Scattered Immortal would be no match for him. However, seeing an immortal still makes it wise to turn and run.
Deciding to put away the Carefree Fan, Li Xiaonan pursued her relentlessly.
Dai Lizi noticed him moving in a series of strange leaps, suddenly appearing right in front of her. Her expression remained cold as she quickly flicked out several pills, igniting them around Li Xiaonan.
As the light descended, Li Xiaonan seized the tail of her Nine Dragon Whip and grinned, “This whip is quite nice; it’s perfect for Ling Kui!”
He forcibly yanked the whip from Dai Lizi's grasp, and a surge of Nine Yang True Fire swept away her spiritual consciousness from it. Dai Lizi spat out a mouthful of blood that splattered onto the ground.
“Chestnut!” An Quan Tao couldn't help but exclaim. Then he frowned, a cruel glint appearing in his narrow, enchanting eyes. “Gagagagaga…” His terrifying laughter echoed throughout the cave.
Dai Lizi glanced at him with a hint of relief in her eyes before she too began to laugh. “Scare scare scare scare…”
“Gagagaga… scare scare scare…” Their eerie laughter intertwined.
Li Xiaonan suddenly sneered, “Sound Attack? Hmph! You underestimate me! Hahahaha!”
The cave trembled with the laughter of the three, cracks appearing on the surface and walls around them.
Ling Xingyao and Yuan Xian'er suddenly felt their Yuan Ying in the Dantian about to burst out. The Ice Maiden frowned and released two transparent bubbles to envelop them, allowing them to breathe a sigh of relief as they focused on observing the battle.
However, the Ice Maiden was filled with shock; she never expected him to possess such a rare Sound Attack. Who exactly was he?
Li Xiaonan faced two opponents, engaging in a fierce contest of True Essence against the two Scattered Immortals.
Noticing that the cave was shaking more violently, worried it might collapse the entire mountain, he decided to end the fight quickly and take down the two Scattered Immortals.
Sure enough, he suppressed the Celestial Energy of both Scattered Immortals with his overwhelming True Essence Power!
An Quan Tao and Dai Lizi both spat out a mouthful of blood, clearly suffering from the backlash and sustaining serious injuries.
Li Xiaonan swiftly employed the Red Silk Hand, sealing both of their Yuan Ying and binding them with the Binding Immortal Rope.
Dai Lizi spat out a bloody mouthful and angrily said, "Pah! If you have the ability, kill us! If not, just be my pet!"
Li Xiaonan was utterly speechless, directly ignoring the latter half of the statement. He forced a smile and said, "Heaven has mercy; I won't kill you..."
He looked down at the Nine Dragon Whip in his hand, seemingly contemplating how to deal with these two Scattered Immortals.
Ling Xingyao's eyes widened in surprise as she suddenly exclaimed, "I remember now! Dai Lizi! An Quan Tao! They are Scattered Immortals from Qingyu City! Oh my god! Big Brother actually defeated Scattered Immortals!"
Li Xiaonan ignited a flame of Nine Yang True Fire in his left hand and burned the Nine Dragon Whip to ashes. The purple flames cast a fierce light on his expression.
He clapped his hands and glanced at Ling Xingyao with a smile, saying, "Scattered Immortal? Hmph! What are Scattered Immortals? In the end, they are just too weak."
Everyone was taken aback, unsure of who the "he" referred to. They exchanged glances before finally looking at An Quan Tao.
An Quan Tao wore a troubled expression, his eyes shimmering with an otherworldly light, subtly infused with a hint of allure. Ice Maiden couldn't help but frown and said, "Little brother, why not let them go?"
Ling Xingyao and Yuan Xian'er also noticed An Quan Tao's gaze and instinctively nodded in agreement, "Yes!"
Li Xiaonan shot a fierce glare at the three of them and sneered, "What a woman's mercy!" He coldly turned to An Quan Tao and added, "If you pull any more tricks, I'll castrate you on the spot!"
An Quan Tao was stunned and quickly covered his mouth, shaking his head.
Li Xiaonan let out a cold snort and slowly walked over to Dai Lizi, patting her cheek. "Do you want to live or die?"
"If you intend to humiliate me, then I want to live!" Dai Lizi replied earnestly. The others wondered if they had misheard; perhaps Dai Lizi meant, "I would rather die than be humiliated by you." Unfortunately, she repeated her statement, prompting everyone to sigh in disbelief at how boldly this beautiful woman spoke.
"Hmph! Is that a joke? You want to live? Then let's make a deal," Li Xiaonan said with a smile while admiring her pretty fingers.
"What kind of deal?"
"I want to be the true owner behind Qingyu City!"
"You! On what grounds?" Dai Lizi's brows furrowed tightly together.
"On the grounds that your lives are in my hands," Li Xiaonan replied with a wicked grin as she clenched her fist.
Dai Lizi shot a cold glance at Li Xiaonan and simply said, "Fine!"
"Words are meaningless. What if you grow wings in the future and bite back?" Li Xiaonan sneered, casually sitting beside Dai Lizi.
Dai Lizi pondered for a moment and said, "We can swear an oath to our Inner Demon."
Li Xiaonan shook her head, her thin lips parting to reveal three words: "Spirit Capture Technique."
"You! This is an unequal treaty. Are you treating us like livestock...?" An Quan Tao was silenced by Li Xiaonan's glare, quickly covering his mouth, then remembering something and covering his lower body.
Li Xiaonan scoffed, "Hmph! If you don't agree, then give me your lives now. Without you, Qingyu City will still belong to me."
Dai Lizi took a deep breath and coldly replied, "Fine!"
"Chestnut, you!"
"Shut up! I don't want to die yet!" Dai Lizi shot a fierce glare at An Quan Tao.
"Very good, straightforward!" Li Xiaonan raised her hand, casting the Spirit Capture Technique on Dai Lizi. Gritting her teeth, she opened her mind and trembled as she accepted this unequal contract.
The others were shocked by Li Xiaonan's decisive actions and learned something new: the Spirit Capture Technique could be used not only on spirit beasts but also on humans; after all, humans are just higher animals.
"From today onward, Chestnut will be your pet. May I ask for your name, Master?" Dai Lizi prostrated herself and bowed her head.
Li Xiaonan smiled slightly, a red light sweeping over Dai Lizi's body as she released the Red Silk Hand with clean and precise movements. "My name is Li Xiaonan. You're very obedient, so I'll tell you a secret..." With a thought, Dai Lizi's face filled with shock as she glared angrily at An Quan Tao.
Li Xiaonan waved her hand, directly breaking the bubble that imprisoned An Quan Tao. The Ice Maiden was taken aback, Inner Thoughts: How does he seem even stronger? His control over True Essence Power is so precise; he found the weakest point of the bubble at a glance!
Dai Lizi, with a face full of killing intent, rushed to An Quan Tao's side and stomped her foot on his abdomen, gritting her teeth as she said, "You've got some nerve! Daring to set your sights on other women, do you want to die?"
"Ah! Queen, spare me!" Dai Lizi placed one hand by her ear. "Huh? What did you say? I can't hear you! Oh, I get it; it feels good, doesn’t it? Do you want me to step harder? I’m going to crush you, you heartless bastard! Who do you think I became a Scattered Immortal for? Ah! You dare to marry another woman! I'm going to crush you! Crush you!"
An Quan Tao trembled as he reached out a shaky hand toward Li Xiaonan. "Master... Master... save me... I'm really... really going to be... ah! crushed."
Li Xiaonan's left corner of his mouth lifted slightly as he gently grasped Dai Lizi's shoulder. "I'll keep him by my side too, so you can bully him every day and watch him every day." He wrapped his right arm around the back of Dai Lizi's head, cradling her face with both hands, forcing her to look directly at An Quan Tao.
Seeing that Dai Lizi had stopped stepping on him, An Quan Tao quickly nodded.
Dai Lizi snorted coldly and didn’t forget to stomp on An Quan Tao one last time before running off to heal herself.
Li Xiaonan smiled slightly and waved one hand. A halo descended upon An Quan Tao, who grimaced as he trembled while accepting Li Xiaonan's Spirit Capture Technique.
Humans are intelligent primates; when the Spirit Capture Technique is used on humans and they agree, the success rate is guaranteed to be one hundred percent.
"After you recover your strength, come find me at the Outer Academy."
"Yes!" The two knelt on the ground with their heads bowed.
Li Xiaonan's left corner of his mouth lifted into a smile again as he turned and flew toward Xiao Hai City. The others were startled, watching him leave without a word before quickly following after him.
