He steadied himself in mid-air, staggered a few steps, and regained his footing.
"Your skills have improved quite a bit."
Shen Yulou was slightly out of breath, but he still didn't forget to provoke her, his eyes fixed on her, not missing a single sound.
"The cult leader's kung fu has also improved a lot."
Only his voice could be heard, but he could not be seen. Chi Yuan's voice remained in the same place, while his feet were already moving in a strange way, leaving behind a series of afterimages that circled around Shen Yulou.
"Hmph, a mere child's play, trying to teach an expert."
With his sword behind his back, Shen Yulou feigned disdain, but dared not be careless in the slightest.
He focused his mind and calmed his spirit, slowly gathering his inner strength in his palm, preparing to deal with any possible surprise attack.
A cold light flashed from the phantom, striking Shen Yulou's throat like lightning.
"You call yourself a righteous person, yet you love to launch sneak attacks."
Shen Yulou reacted extremely quickly, dodging to the side while simultaneously striking out with his palm.
The wind from their palms whistled, colliding with the cold light and producing a crisp ringing sound as their wrists pressed together in a contest of strength.
As Chi Yuan's arm pressed closer, Shen Yulou slowly rotated her left hand around her elbow, gently yet firmly deflecting Chi Yuan's force.
"The alliance leader is really amazing."
"If the Alliance Leader is this good at fighting here, wouldn't he be even better at fighting in bed?"
Shen Yulou grabbed Chi Yuan's hand with her wrist and pulled him forcefully into her arms. Suddenly, she smiled seductively and whispered lewd and offensive words into his ear.
"I didn't know that the cult leader was actually a thug."
Chi Yuan chuckled, then gently broke free from Shen Yulou's grasp.
"Master Shen, what kind of trick is this?"
He didn't hear Shen Yulou's reply, only an arm he couldn't pull away and the next wave of even fiercer attacks.
The hand, imbued with true energy, pressed on his acupoints. Chi Yuan could only use his other hand to deflect the attack, while waiting for an opportunity to break free with his other hand.
The two exchanged blows, their figures intertwined, leaving afterimages in mid-air.
"Taowu, this isn't a sustainable strategy."
"The longer this goes on, the more things will change. This place is not far from the Demonic Sect. We will escort you away."
Taotie stared intently at Bai Ze on Zhuque's head, secretly transmitting its voice to Taotie.
This Bai Ze is just like his master, both of them putting on airs of superiority, which is really annoying.
"good."
Upon seeing this, the Crimson Flame Golden Lion Beast quickly stood in front of the Taotie, and the two giant beasts looked down to find a way to break through.
Dark orange and fiery red flames attacked each other around them, while black flames spewed from the mouth of the Nine-Headed Serpent continuously joined in.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
The nine infants looked up and howled, their cries as continuous as those of a baby.
Each head aimed at a different Qilin, making it impossible for them to stop the Taotie and the Crimson Flame Golden Lion Beast from escaping.
Chi Yuan glanced at them out of the corner of his eye, his lips pressed tightly together, and he channeled his inner strength to the maximum in both hands, causing Shen Yulou's hand to be pushed away.
"Give up, Alliance Leader, you can't win."
"In the end, my contracted beast will be stronger."
Just like you and me, I'm always the one who's better.
A sinister smugness flashed in Shen Yulou's narrow eyes. He slightly raised his chin, and a strand of hair on his forehead moved with the wind, adding to his arrogance.
"It's too early for the leader to draw conclusions. Our battle is still undecided, so what does it have to do with your ferocious beasts?"
Seeing the faint aura of power appearing in Chi Yuan's eyes, Shen Yulou shrugged and raised her hand as if to strike, her hand holding the medicine powder under her brightly colored wide sleeves poised to strike.
Just as Chi Yuan was about to reach out to catch Shen Yulou's attack, white powder suddenly burst into view and filled the air.
"I have plenty of underhanded tricks up my sleeve, why would I bother trying to win against you?"
Chi Yuan: ...
His last sight as he fell was the hem of Shen Yulou's robe at her feet, and the foot that was stepping on his chest.
They've all fallen down; take them back to the Demonic Sect and tie them up.
Shen Yulou withdrew his foot from Chi Yuan's chest with satisfaction, clapped his hands, hoisted Chi Yuan onto his shoulder, and disappeared without a trace as he circulated his internal energy.
