But no one expected that at this critical moment, Bai Ying would suddenly extend her sword and thrust it straight towards Ruan Xinrou's dantian.
The sword strike was so fast and powerful that no one had time to react. With a "plop," the blade pierced through Ruan Xinrou's dantian without any resistance, and blood gushed out instantly, staining her white clothes crimson.
Qin Hua Zhenren's face turned deathly pale instantly. Without thinking, he quickly moved, rushing towards Ruan Xinrou's location like a gust of wind. His speed was extremely fast, creating a whistling sound that seemed to tear the surrounding air apart.
But in the next instant, Bai Ying quickly formed hand seals, and a barrier radiating powerful spiritual energy appeared in front of her. This barrier, like a transparent wall, kept both the mysterious giant hand and the anxious Qin Hua Zhenren outside.
Seeing this, the hand let out a contemptuous snort: "You think you can trap me with such a paltry trick? You're really overestimating yourself!"
In its eyes, Bai Ying's actions were nothing more than child's play. With that, it suddenly raised its enormous hand, creating a powerful gust of air that seemed to slightly distort the surrounding space. Powerful spiritual energy gathered around its hand, forming a dazzling ball of light that radiated a chilling pressure. Then, it slammed it down heavily.
Bai Ying said coldly, "This moment is enough!" As she spoke, she thrust her sword toward Ruan Xinrou's spiritual root.
"stop!"
Qin Hua Zhenren cried out anxiously. Although Ruan Xinrou had a substitute talisman, preventing Bai Ying from killing her, if Bai Ying were to destroy her spiritual root, she would truly be without it! What difference would that make from being a cripple?
"Absolutely not!" But Bai Ying didn't hesitate for a moment, and without any scruples, she directly shredded Ruan Xinrou's spiritual root with her long sword!
A loud scream came from Ruan Xinrou's mouth; she was in so much pain that tears and snot streamed down her face.
Qin Hua Zhenren and the giant hand were both furious. They clearly hadn't expected Bai Ying to be so audacious! She actually dared to cripple Ruan Xinrou right under their noses.
"Go to hell!"
The attack from Master Qin Hua landed on the spot where Bai Ying was, along with the giant hand.
But in that instant, Bai Ying vanished from where she had just been. What remained beneath her feet was a small teleportation array. No one knew when she had set it up!
She actually made Qin Hua Zhenren look foolish in front of a Void Refinement stage expert and destroyed Ruan Xinrou's spiritual root. Then she calmly disappeared!
On that day, Bai Ying's name spread throughout the entire Beiyuan Prefecture, becoming even more famous than the original young talents of Beiyuan Prefecture.
There is truly only one cultivator who can reach the Nascent Soul stage at such a young age, yet she was still able to escape from a mere trace of divine thought from a Void Refinement stage expert.
This is absolutely terrifying!
"It's fortunate that she's under an inescapable inner demon curse. She'll definitely die after three months, otherwise, with her current abilities, who knows how far she'll grow!"
"But I feel it's a bit of a pity. Otherwise, with Bai Ying's talent, it wouldn't be impossible for her to reach the Void Refinement stage. She's just too amazing."
"The Huayang Sect people brought this upon themselves. They were the ones who cast the Heart Demon Curse on Bai Ying. What Bai Ying did this time was just revenge. I don't think she went too far at all, she was even too gentle. That Qin Hua Zhenren looks so righteous, who would have thought he's actually a lecherous man? It's really shocking."
People kept talking about Bai Ying and the group from Huayang Sect; they had become the talk of the town throughout Beiyuan Prefecture.
When Lu Ran returned, he was completely dazed. He had witnessed Bai Ying's arrogant behavior before, but he never expected her to be this arrogant.
You must know that this time the opponent is a Void Refinement stage cultivator. Even a wisp of divine thought is not something a Nascent Soul stage cultivator can handle.
But this Bai Ying actually dared to do such a thing in front of a Void Refinement stage old monster!
He felt incredibly annoyed once again. If he had known this would happen, why did he ever provoke Bai Ying?
After that, he dared not think about revenge anymore, and he would avoid Bai Ying whenever he saw her.
Anyway, she'll die after three months, so there's no need for me to rush to her death.
He looked at Lin Yuan, who had come to visit him after hearing the news, and hesitated to speak.
He could only offer Lin Yuan words of comfort: "It's a good thing that Bai Ying doesn't have much time left to live, otherwise I would really feel sorry for you. Bai Ying's growth rate is just too fast. I don't even want to think about what she will be like in the future. It's alright, it's alright."
Lin Yuan frowned deeply and simply said, "I broke off the engagement because I hate not being able to choose the person I like. I don't like Bai Ying, and no matter how much she grows up, it has nothing to do with me."
But even though he said those words, when he heard Lu Ran say that Bai Ying didn't have much time left to live, his heart clenched and he felt a sense of unease.
Bai Ying, who was at the center of everyone's turmoil, was in a mountain cave.
If Ruan Xinrou were still here, she would immediately recognize this place as the treasure trove where she and Yan Chiling brought Bai Ying before.
Bai Ying had placed a small teleportation array on the ground, but she didn't teleport out of it. Instead, she hid inside a small magical artifact she had crafted, waiting for the group from Huayang Sect to leave.
The supernatural powers of cultivators in the Void Refinement stage far exceed everyone's imagination.
Bai Ying had personally witnessed in her previous life that someone who was teleported away through a teleportation array could be pulled out and killed by a cultivator in the Void Refinement stage.
Bai Ying's teleportation array was merely a deception. The small magical artifact she crafted was as insignificant as dust, easily missed without careful examination.
She had only pretended when she opened the treasure in front of Ruan Xinrou. After the Huayang Sect members realized they couldn't open the treasure, they only sent two ordinary disciples to guard it before leaving.
Bai Ying then quietly entered the treasure.
Her eyes peered inside, eager to see what lay within this treasure trove she had never been able to enter in her past life.
Then she was shocked, followed by indescribable joy.
