Li Xiaonan retreated swiftly, his hands clasped at his waist as he shouted, "Heavenly Union Strike!"
Hong Jun frowned, quickly pulling his hand back.
A glint of cunning flashed in Li Xiaonan's eyes.
"Pfft..." After letting out a fart, he hurriedly fled into the distance.
He stepped onto the Carefree Fan and propelled himself northward with all his might, muttering to himself: Am I a fool? I'm not stupid! The best strategy is to retreat; even if I have to fight, I need to secure an escape route first, or I'll end up in a terrible situation!
Hong Jun frowned and quickly pinched his nose, angrily exclaiming, "You little brat, how dare you pull that on me!" Then he smiled slightly and transformed into a beam of light, chasing after Li Xiaonan.
"Hey! Father-in-law, it's me, Xiao Nan! I've run into another immortal; you need to come help me! I'm at Red Gorge; hurry up! Otherwise, I'm done for!" Li Xiaonan frantically contacted Lingwu Tong through the Big Brother Phone and continued flying forward.
Hong Jun leisurely followed behind him, seemingly in no rush, until Li Xiaonan took out the Big Brother Phone. A hint of urgency flashed in his eyes, and in an instant, he vanished.
Li Xiaonan glanced back, puzzled about where Hong Jun had gone. Suddenly, he felt a shift in front of him and slammed on the brakes just in time to avoid crashing into the suddenly reappeared Hong Jun.
"You... you..." Li Xiaonan stammered, momentarily at a loss for words.
Hong Jun gently blew aside his long hair and chuckled, "You have some interesting tricks! You destroyed the sect I painstakingly built; I should have killed you. But now that it’s come to this, it seems a bit regrettable. How about this: become my disciple, and I'll let go of the grudge against Crimson Cloud Sect?"
Li Xiaonan's mouth dropped open in shock, looking as if he could swallow an egg whole. He thought to himself: Has this guy's head been caught in a door? Just like that, he wants to let go of the grudge against my destruction of his sect? And he wants to take me as his disciple! Does he think I'm an idiot or is he the one who's foolish?
He cleared his throat and said, "Senior, please don't joke around. I have a pure character and might take it seriously..."
"Hahaha! This is interesting! I also have a pure character, and everything I say is the truth. Come on, bow down!" Hong Jun laughed heartily, his eyes squinting with amusement.
Li Xiaonan's mouth twitched as he took a step back. You have a pure character? Who would believe that! I don’t even know what your background is; how could I just agree to become your disciple? But this could be an opportunity!
Li Xiaonan lowered his head in distress, seemingly engaged in a fierce internal struggle.
He rubbed his hands together and sighed, "Although I admire you, Senior Hong, I already have a master. It doesn’t seem right to take on another... Besides, my comprehension is average. I’m afraid I would embarrass you if I went to the Celestial Realm..."
"Hahaha! You don’t need to worry about that. The Celestial Realm, I..." Hong Jun's words were cut off as Li Xiaonan seized the moment and unleashed a Heavenly Union Strike. In an instant, his True Essence Power was drained away. He didn’t even have time to assess Hong Jun’s situation before his body went limp and he fell.
"Crash!"
He broke several branches as he landed on the thick layer of fallen leaves, nearly spitting out blood from the impact.
It seemed that after returning to his original size, the physical and magical defenses of the Heavenly Gang Golden Body inexplicably vanished. Perhaps it was because the enemy he faced was too formidable for them to manifest.
"Ouch... my back!" Li Xiaonan grimaced as he looked up at the mushroom cloud in the sky, muttering to himself, "I should have killed him... Hiss... I need to get out of here quickly... If I didn't kill him, then I'm the one who will die..."
He struggled to get up and limped into the forest.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..." The strong wind stirred up piles of leaves, instantly blinding Li Xiaonan with dust and debris. His heart raced; could it be that more monsters were coming?
Wow! A fairy! An authentic fairy!
A woman flew in from afar, her white robes fluttering gracefully. As she lightly touched the ground with her toes, her silver hair cascaded down like snowflakes, slowly settling around her. A bright red ribbon simply tied the ends of her hair.
That cool and ethereal face immediately reminded Li Xiaonan of someone— Ling Kui!
The resemblance was striking; it was almost uncanny.
"Who are you? Was that attack just now your doing?"
The cold voice sent a shiver down Li Xiaonan's spine, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
This fairy couldn't have been raised on ice cubes, could she?
In a moment of surprise, he nodded.
The corners of the woman's mouth lifted slightly, but there was no hint of warmth in her eyes. She coldly remarked, "Interesting!" With that, she leaped lightly into the air, her jade-like foot striking out in a flying kick toward Li Xiaonan.
"Flower Rubbing! What’s wrong with you? Crazy woman!" Li Xiaonan exclaimed as he hurriedly retreated, crossing his arms defensively in front of his chest while mentally labeling this authentic fairy as a lunatic.
With a thud, Li Xiaonan fell to the ground, feeling as if he had split in two. He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood that splattered onto the thick layer of dead leaves.
"Hmph! So weak! You're lying!" The fairy frowned, coldly flicking her sleeve.
Li Xiaonan was furious. Less than a day after his breakthrough, his True Essence Power was depleted, and he had been injured by someone. He shouted, "What a joke! So impressive, huh, fairy?"
The woman’s expression grew colder as she narrowed her eyes slightly. "Can you tell that I am an immortal?"
Li Xiaonan chuckled. "With a girl like you, anyone can see you're just a fairy who has foolishly practiced cultivation!"
The woman frowned, a fleeting smile crossing her eyes as she asked curiously, "What do you mean by 'three-no girl'?"
Her name was Bai Luo. After a millennium of hard cultivation, she was no longer in her youthful years. Her long, white hair bore witness to her painful past and the cruelty of time. Being called a girl by a handsome young man made her feel an unexpected sense of pleasure.
Li Xiaonan cleared his throat and said, "You don’t even know what a three-no girl is! Tsk! My physics teacher said that while one can lack knowledge, they shouldn't lack common sense. It's your fault for not even watching TV! A three-no girl has no chest, no waist, and no brains! Oh right, looking at you like this, you're not really a girl anymore; you should be called a young woman or maybe even an old lady? Haha... uh..."
Just as Li Xiaonan was enjoying teasing Bai Luo with his nonsense, he noticed a flash of anger in her eyes. With a swift motion, she propelled herself forward like an arrow released from a bow. Her pale, icy fingers gripped Li Xiaonan's neck tightly, leaving him momentarily speechless.
"Let... let go, crazy woman..." Li Xiaonan struggled to pry her fingers off but found them unyielding as his breathing became increasingly labored.
Bai Luo coldly replied, "If you beg me, I will let you go!" With that, she tightened her grip even more.
"Beg... beg... your sister..." Li Xiaonan gasped out before his eyes rolled back and his head tilted to one side.
Bai Luo was startled and quickly released her grip. Li Xiaonan's body slumped to the ground weakly.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Luo said, "You little brat, stop pretending and get up! Cultivators are best at holding their breath! Do you think your poor acting can fool me?"
“……”
Li Xiaonan continued to lie on the ground in a large character shape, his stillness almost eerie.
“Get up! Or I really will kill you!” Bai Luo shouted, raising her hand.
“……”
Li Xiaonan remained motionless, secretly laughing to himself. Indeed, he was playing dead, and if he was going to pretend, he would go all the way!
“Fine! Let’s see how long you can keep this up!” Bai Luo brought her hand down.
Li Xiaonan suddenly opened his eyes wide and rolled to the side, just in time to see a half-centimeter deep handprint left by Hao Ran beside him.
Goodness! If he had been even a moment slower, would he still be alive?
He jumped up, brushed off the leaves from his body, and angrily exclaimed, “How can you be so heartless? You almost killed me, and now you want to desecrate my corpse! Pervert! Witch! Inhumane!”
“You!” A cold light flashed in Bai Luo's eyes as she kicked towards Li Xiaonan's vital points.
Li Xiaonan was so frightened that he jumped aside, narrowly avoiding her attack. He continued to curse, “You venomous woman! Old Maiden!”
“I’ll kill you!” After so many years of self-discipline, her once icy heart had not stirred at all; even Bai Luo began to doubt whether she still had a heart.
At this moment, he was driven nearly mad by the sudden appearance of this brat, wondering how this little punk could have so many infuriating words in his head!
Bai Luo, whose icy expression rarely changed, had a rare flush of color on her face. She gripped a silver whip tightly and swung it fiercely at Li Xiaonan.
"Damn it!" Li Xiaonan tumbled forward awkwardly, but unfortunately, his True Essence Power was nearly depleted. Bai Luo pursued him relentlessly, the whip raised high, ready to strike down.
Li Xiaonan shouted, "Ah!"
Suddenly, someone struck his head hard. He looked up in confusion and saw Spirit Weapon with one hand behind his back and the other gripping the whip.
Spirit Weapon scolded with a laugh, "You little brat, I didn't even hit you. Why are you shouting?"
Li Xiaonan awkwardly scratched his head and chuckled, "Hehe."
Spirit Weapon shook his head with a smile and turned to Bai Luo, who was also looking at the suddenly appeared man. Their eyes met, and for a moment, the atmosphere around them seemed to freeze, creating a suffocating silence.
Chen Yaojin slowly floated out, gently placing his hands on Li Xiaonan's shoulders. He said softly, "Boss... what happened?"
Li Xiaonan shrugged, clearly accustomed to Chen Yaojin's sudden appearances. He pouted and replied, "You wouldn’t know! As the saying goes, rumors stop with the wise; chatting stops with 'hehe.' I say 'hehe,' and everyone just goes silent."
"You..."
"You..."
"Spirit Weapon" and "Bai Luo" spoke in unison, but then both paused, seemingly waiting for the other to speak first.
"You go ahead," "Spirit Weapon" said, immediately adopting a gentlemanly demeanor.
"Bai Luo" lowered her head. "How have you been... lately?"
"I'm doing well. How about you? Been good?" "Spirit Weapon" nodded, continuing this unproductive conversation.
"Mm."
"Li Xiaonan" twitched the corners of her mouth twice. It was clear that these two knew each other, and judging by the ambiguous and awkward atmosphere between them, as well as the crazy woman's attitude towards "Father-in-law," it was evident they had a history.
"Ahem! Aren't you two tired?" "Li Xiaonan" coughed lightly to remind them.
"Spirit Weapon" and "Bai Luo" maintained their positions—one holding the whip and the other grasping it—two people of considerable age, yet they seemed unconcerned about straining their backs.
At "Li Xiaonan's" reminder, both awkwardly retracted their hands at the same time.
"Spirit Weapon" quickly changed the subject. "This is my son-in-law, Li Xiaonan, who is also the husband of Ling Kui."
"What!" "Bai Luo's" brows furrowed, her eyes filled with astonishment and anger.
