What kind of attack is this? It's so powerful! She only realized it was coming right up to her, and didn't even have time to deploy her Soft Smoke Garland defense.
Given her current cultivation level and spiritual sense, this shouldn't be happening.
This is not an attack method from this world, nor can this kind of power be produced by the weapons of this world.
What exactly is it?
These are questions that no one can answer right now, and there's no time for her to think about them.
A wisp of eerie black energy emanated from the scorching power, penetrating her spiritual energy protective layer and disrupting the array on her robe.
It seeped into her consciousness and went straight for her soul.
Lin Qianqian felt extremely disgusted as soon as her soul sensed that trace of black energy.
The black energy, upon seeing Lin Qianqian's soul, clung to it, attempting to erode and corrupt it.
Damn it! It really is a power that doesn't belong to this world!
She is now under attack on both body and soul, it's outrageous!
The mall was right behind her, where her employees and many people from the safe zone were located. She couldn't afford to lose!
If she loses, the others will not fare well either.
Thinking of this, Lin Qianqian increased the output of her spiritual power, concentrating all her strength on the Green Wood Sword to resist the attack beam with all her might.
The seed of life in her mind seemed to sense the danger she was in.
Suddenly it expanded and contracted, radiating an invisible force in all directions.
Instantly, all life forms in this plane, including humans, animals, and plants, received a call.
Time and space seemed to stand still, as if everything in the world had been frozen in time, or as if thousands of years had passed.
After that, all the life forms on the plane unconsciously responded, offering up some kind of power from their bodies.
After receiving this power, the seed of life expanded and then emitted a light green halo.
When the halo of light touched the ball of black energy, the black energy emitted a hissing sound.
Just like lard roasting over a high fire or ice and snow being baked by the scorching sun, it melts incredibly fast.
That black energy was repeatedly fried and roasted until only a tiny, multicolored essence remained.
Before Lin Qianqian's soul could even see what it was, it was swallowed whole by the life seed that suddenly appeared.
She realized for the first time that the seeds in her family actually had mouths.
After swallowing the five-colored essence, the seed, like a dog that had stolen a bone, hid in a corner of its mind to digest the delicious treat.
This series of actions involves many steps, but in reality, it all happens in a single instant.
Lin Qianqian didn't have time to question what the Seed of Life was, nor did she have time to fight it for that little bit of essence.
With the disgusting things no longer attacking and eroding her soul, she could now focus all her energy on dealing with the crisis at hand.
Lin Qianqian mobilized all her strength, and the green wooden sword in her hand shone brightly, cleaving away the huge beam of light that was attacking her.
She herself was thrown back by the recoil, staggering more than ten steps until she reached the entrance of the mall.
She had used up almost all of her spiritual energy, and even her nascent soul was weakening. She was swaying precariously, her hands were shaking violently, and she could barely stand.
"Boss, are you alright?"
Luo Zexuan opened the mall door and jogged over to help her, followed by Wen Mingyue and Chu Zhou.
Old Zhang was blocking the people in the safe zone at the gate, preventing them from getting close to Lin Qianqian.
"Don't come any closer."
No sooner had she finished speaking than a dozen light cannons struck her.
Fortunately, at the last moment, she instinctively stretched out her wings and wrapped herself up.
She was blasted away by these light beams like a ball.
She flew backwards and crashed into the mall. Luo Zexuan, who was standing nearby, instinctively tried to catch her.
But not only did he fail to catch it, he was also knocked to the side, and Chu Zhou quickly came over to help him up.
After Lin Qianqian knocked Luo Zexuan away, she knocked over many other shelves in the mall before finally falling into a pile of goods.
"boss!"
"Boss Lin"...
Lin Qianqian's hands hurt, her shoulders hurt, her head hurt, and she was also feeling a little dizzy.
She had never been injured so badly before; the impact had damaged her internal organs.
Her wings slowly retracted into her body, and blood kept gushing from her ears, nose, and mouth, staining her robes with bright red blood.
Wen Mingyue hurriedly rummaged through her storage bag for healing pills, which were items from her new employee welcome package. She never expected to use them on Lin Qianqian.
Chu Zhou handed Luo Zexuan over to Zhang Laodao and stepped forward to calmly examine the large and small wounds on Lin Qianqian's body.
"How is the boss?" Wen Mingyue asked while taking out the pills.
After examining her, Chu Zhou replied, "She mostly has superficial injuries, and her hand is broken. The most serious injury is internal; she's bleeding from her internal organs, which is why she keeps vomiting blood. Give her some medicine first, and then we'll put her in the treatment pod. There shouldn't be any major problems."
After taking the pill, Lin Qianqian felt that her body was not in so much pain.
A gentle, soothing power slowly healed her injuries, and her consciousness cleared somewhat.
"Boss, how are you?"
"Are you feeling better? Where does it still hurt?"
Everyone was asking questions at once, and her employees were even more nervous. Wen Mingyue was almost in tears.
Luo Zexuan was hit and took some of the force, so he was seriously injured.
He was being helped by Old Zhang to take healing pills.
After Lin Qianqian regained some strength, she was just about to ask about the situation outside?
Then she heard a sharp alarm from the system in her mind: "The mall has been under massive attack. Initiate emergency relocation?"
Outside, the sky was filled with the light of cannons firing at the mall.
"Move! Move quickly!" Lin Qianqian shouted with all her might.
"Ten points will be deducted for this emergency transfer. Please locate the store location in your mind."
Ignoring the system's warning about deducting points, Lin Qianqian thought of an address.
The online store immediately disappeared from its original location and reappeared thousands of miles away.
Lin Qianqian struggled to sit up and glanced outside through the glass door.
The mall is now located in a valley, with no broken spaceships or mechs outside, and no artillery fire.
The online store has been successfully migrated!
The moment she relaxed, Lin Qianqian could no longer hold on and fainted.
She remained unconscious for three whole days.
For the past three days, Luo Zexuan and the other three took turns guarding Lin Qianqian, never leaving her side.
However, the people in the safe zone were quite interesting. Their morale was low, and they kept making small, probing moves, but these were all defused by the employees.
In terms of martial prowess, they are no match for Zhang Laodao, who is a Foundation Establishment cultivator who has attained enlightenment through martial arts.
In terms of academic papers, they couldn't compare to Chu Zhou's intelligence; Chu Zhou's intellect wasn't limited to research. As long as he took things seriously, no one could outsmart him or resort to underhanded tactics.
He should be thanking his lucky stars if he doesn't dig ten or eight pits for others.
If you want to argue, Luo Zexuan and Wen Mingyue can verbally abuse you until you want to hang yourself.
That day, Wen Mingyue was keeping watch by Lin Qianqian's bedside when she accidentally dozed off and then woke up.
Lin Qianqian turned her head and looked around. She was in a room on the fifth floor.
She is still feeling weak, and she knows her face is frighteningly pale without even looking in a mirror.
He activated his cultivation technique, and spiritual energy flowed slowly through his meridians, restoring his power to less than half.
She struggled to sit up for a while, her body heavy.
At that moment, she touched something beside her pillow—the whip that Yunze had given her.
She used to wrap it around her waist for convenience, so Wen Mingyue must have taken it off and put it here for her.
Looking at the whip, she fell into deep thought; her strength was still too weak.
The mall absolutely needs to sign another highly capable employee!
