After the Great War of the Three Realms, everything was in chaos. Jiang Yan, a low-level flower cultivator who had just transmigrated over, had just been broken up with when she was bound to severa...
Chapter 104 Because I Like You
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jiang Yan immediately swung her sword at the evil cultivator again, then quickly flashed to Feng Qingyu's side and gave him two pills.
"Quickly eat two to replenish your energy!"
Feng Qingyu quickly swallowed the pill and met the demon's attack head-on.
The demonic clone seemed unaffected by Feng Qingyu's palm strike and sword strike.
Jiang Yan complained to Xiao Mei, "Are you kidding me? This thing is not only hard to kill, it's also immortal?!"
Xiao Mei: "It shouldn't be immortality, but if the main body or the main clone is unharmed, the other clones won't be greatly affected even if they are injured. However, if the main body or the main clone collapses, the other clones will be destroyed without any attack."
Jiang Yan frowned: "So you mean I've been fighting puppets all day?!"
Xiao Mei frowned and said, "No, host, the opponent you were facing on the mountaintop just now was either the main body or a clone of the main body."
Jiang Yan frowned as she watched the demonic clone approaching him: "Is there really no way to eliminate the clone first?!"
"There should be a way. Host, you keep him occupied for a while while I go check the information!"
"Hurry up! If you keep fighting like this, it'll be too late!"
"knew!"
On the mountain.
The Ancestral Master and Lord Forget-Worry are locked in a fierce battle with the evil spirit.
Lin Yun, Shen Yuchen, Dongfang Chen, and the others were also locked in a fierce battle with the demonic clone.
The Ancestral Grandmother hummed softly, "It's been a hundred years, and the Thousand-Faced Demon King's skills have only increased. It's truly admirable!"
"Lord Chi Ling is no less impressive! At his age, he can still exchange a few blows with me!"
The matriarch chuckled and said, "When you get old, you should stretch your muscles and bones, shouldn't you?"
"I see you're as reckless as ever! You were no match for me back then, do you think you can turn the tables now?"
Wangyou said coldly, "The Thousand-Faced Demon King is far too confident! If you were five hundred years younger, we might not be a match for you, but now we are old, and you are old too. The outcome is uncertain."
"Enough talk, take this! Today I'll show you what a defeated opponent really is!"
Down the mountain, Jiang Yan had just taken a few pills, but her strength was still somewhat lacking.
Although Feng Qingyu's spiritual power had recovered somewhat, she had already exhausted a lot of her physical strength and mental energy after fighting for so long.
Jiang Yan urged Xiao Mei in her mind, "Have you found a way yet? Do you really want to see me die here?!"
"It's not that bad, host. We've found some information that we can use as a reference."
Jiang Yan heard Xiao Mei's "click-clack" sound of turning pages in her mind: "Although the injury of the clone does not have a great impact on the main body or the main body clone, they share the same soul. However, if the connection between the main body clone and the other clones is severed, causing the main body clone's consciousness to become confused, it will be a good opportunity for the Ancestral Grandmother and the others to make their move!"
"But he's just a clone, he doesn't have any consciousness at all, how am I supposed to sever his connection with the main body?!"
"Sharing a soul necessarily means sharing a lifeline. As long as we find a way to sever the lifeline, it should work. As for where this lifeline is, I have no idea."
As soon as Jiang Yan raised her eyes, the demonic clone was instantly within arm's reach again.
She immediately raised her hand and thrust her sword forward, changing her attack style.
Feng Qingyu quickly realized Jiang Yan's intentions and cooperated with her seamlessly.
Jiang Yan's sword pierced through the heart, dantian, and lower abdomen of the demonic clone, but the opponent was completely unaffected.
Clearly, his connection to the main subject is not here!
A series of mechanical voices echoed in Jiang Yan's mind: "Lin Yun's health has decreased by 2.3 points, and is now 47.3 points."
"Shen Yuchen's health level has decreased by 0.2 points, and is now 32.7."
"Dongfang Chen's health level has decreased by 0.3, and is now 42.3."
Jiang Yan frowned. She couldn't delay any longer; she had to find the lifeline of this clone as soon as possible!
The clone feinted at Feng Qingyu before leaping forward to attack Jiang Yan once more.
Feng Qingyu frowned and immediately flew over, but unexpectedly the tip of the demonic sword turned and stabbed straight at his dantian.
Instantly, wisps of red aura wafted out from the wound. Jiang Yan asked anxiously, "Feng Qingyu, how are you!"
Feng Qingyu frowned, and before he could answer, the demon pressed forward again.
Jiang Yan turned around and quickly went to meet her.
Xiao Mei exclaimed urgently, "Host, try cutting off his arm!"
Jiang Yan frowned, then slightly turned her body and swung her sword at him unprepared!
It caught the demonic clone completely off guard and severed its left arm. Instantly, a stream of black energy gushed out from the wound.
Just as Jiang Yan was about to stab him a second time, the clone suddenly turned into a cloud of black mist and drifted away.
She frowned slightly: "The lifeline is actually on my arm!"
Xiao Mei exclaimed, "Host, quickly tell those people about this through your sea of consciousness!"
Jiang Yan closed her eyes briefly and relayed the message.
At that moment, Lin Yun was locked in fierce combat with a clone. Upon receiving this information, he swiftly swung his sword and severed the left arm of the evil cultivator in front of him.
Instantly, the ethereal figure in front of them turned into a wisp of black smoke and drifted away.
Immediately afterward, Dongfang Chen and Gongsun Jin also quickly severed the arms of the demonic clone in front of them. Dongfang Chen flashed and severed the arm of the demonic clone in front of Shen Yuchen.
Lingyue and Xiaobai quickly dealt with the demonic clones in front of them, leaving only the main demonic clone!
Lin Yun and the others quickly moved to the side of their ancestral grandmother and Wangyou.
Inside the cave, Jiang Yan was tending to Feng Qingyu's wounds. Although his health had already reached 50%, the injury wouldn't significantly affect his health.
However, injuries will always affect the speed of recovery.
At that moment, Jiang Yan was squatting in front of him, nervously applying medicine to him.
She said, "I'll go find Grandmother Ancestral Master again later and ask her for some of the best medicines from Medicine King Valley to help you heal faster. When you're almost fully recovered, I'll research some miracle scar-removing medicine for you, I guarantee it will..."
Feng Qingyu glanced at her focused expression and suddenly interrupted, asking, "Are you worried that my injury will affect the recovery process, or are you more worried about me?"
Jiang Yan paused in her bandaging, slowly raising her eyes to look at his blurry face, and for some reason her heart suddenly raced again.
Does he know something?
She smiled slightly, about to speak, when she heard him say again, "I can read minds, don't try to lie to me."
Jiang Yan's eyes widened slightly. There are so many tricks in the cultivation world!
She frowned: "This isn't right! This is wrong!"
She was about to get up when the person in front of her suddenly grabbed her wrist, his dark, calm eyes fixed on her: "I want to hear the truth, is that alright?"
Jiang Yan changed the subject, asking, "Is this matter that important?"
“It’s very important to me.”
Jiang Yan asked subconsciously, "Why...why do we have to have an answer?"
"I don't necessarily need an answer, it's just... I suddenly really want to know if I've taken a place in your heart after all this time we've spent together? When you saw me injured just now, was the concern in your eyes genuine, or was it just something you couldn't help?"
"you……"
Feng Qingyu interrupted her softly, then said slowly and deliberately, "The reason I'm so fixated on this truth is entirely because... I've fallen for you."
