There are countless geniuses in the world of cultivation, but only my junior sister Sha Diao

Gu Xia's appearance caused the former master and disciple, who were still fighting fiercely, to begin to question their existence.

The reaction was more one of shock and bewilderment than anything else.

Qu Yimian, on the other hand, was much more frantic, her eyes bloodshot, unable to understand the reason no matter what she did.

She could barely contain herself as she murmured, "Why?"

"You were clearly dead, I saw it with my own eyes, how could you possibly come back to life?"

Rather than saying she didn't believe Gu Xia was alive, it would be more accurate to say she didn't believe she could have misjudged the situation.

"Why not?" Gu Xia's expression turned cold, and she smiled faintly. "You can come back from the dead, so what difference does it make if one more person like me appears in this world?"

"This is different!"

Qu Yimian's voice suddenly became sharp, and she stared at her fiercely, "How could I possibly be like you!"

Gu Xia remained completely unmoved.

It's really funny, she thought Qu Yimian was dead when she killed her, but she only realized that she had let go of her feelings too soon after she was tricked.

Now that the situation has reversed, the same methods and the same tactics are being used to stage a familiar scene once again.

As the saying goes, karma is a cycle, and no one escapes the wrath of Heaven.

It's just a matter of coming back to life, right? It's not like anyone can't do that.

The other disciples couldn't help but feel a stomachache after realizing this.

Okay, okay, this is how you all play, right?

So both of them are drama queens, putting on an act for each other?

Their expressions were strange; they wondered if it was just their imagination, but it seemed as if two words had appeared out of nowhere on their faces.

On the left side of his face is a character for 'small', and on the right side is a character for 'ugly'.

So the clowns are themselves.

In that brief moment, Qu Yimian stared intently at Gu Xia, and in a flash, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

"Was it that drop of phoenix blood you stole that saved you?!"

Qu Yimian finally remembered what had happened in the Land of Fallen Angels.

It turned out to be the case.

Phoenix essence and blood, the effect of rebirth.

Her hatred for Gu Xia intensified.

If she hadn't interfered, this treasure would rightfully belong to her.

Without the help of the phoenix's blood essence, Gu Xia would never have been able to come back to life.

Qu Yimian initially felt that she had lost something she wanted, never imagining that this would be like a boomerang, striking her hard in the near future.

That treasure, which should have belonged solely to her, ended up going to Gu Xia.

"What do you mean by robbing?"

Xu Xingmu was displeased with her words, "Watch your words. This is clearly something my junior sister achieved through her own unremitting efforts."

"This phoenix blood essence should belong to her!"

If you disagree, then come and argue with me.

The other disciples nodded in agreement without thinking.

That makes perfect sense.

Yue Minggang had just calmed the chaotic spiritual energy surging within his body when he saw this and his lips twitched violently.

This was the first time he had ever seen his trusted disciples so in sync and in agreement.

It has to be said that Gu Xia seems to possess a kind of inexplicable magic.

Upon hearing this, Qu Yimian's face flushed with anger. She abruptly turned her head, her sharp demonic energy piercing him like a knife. "Shut up!"

Her voice was icy. "What do you know? That was rightfully mine!"

Xu Xingmu's pupils contracted as the attack was already within reach. He instinctively wanted to raise his sword to block, but the next second he was pulled by a force.

He instantly appeared in another location.

At the same time, several talismans collided with the demonic energy. Gu Xia was prepared and pulled her second senior brother away first, her smile not reaching her eyes, "The treasures of heaven and earth belong to the capable. How did they become yours?"

Xu Xingmu didn't understand, but she understood Qu Yimian's implied meaning.

In her mind, all good things should naturally belong to her.

However, something went wrong in the middle, and Gu Xia was kicked into the Heavenly Dao and fed a meal, thus the Phoenix Essence Blood fell into her hands.

Qu Yimian was naturally unwilling to accept this.

But what can you do if you're unwilling to accept it?

How should something that Gu Xia earned through her own abilities belong to her?

When his first attack failed, Qu Yimian's expression became even more gloomy.

"Gu Xia, so what if you come back to life now?"

In the blink of an eye, Qu Yimian composed herself. Her dark eyes seemed to hold a storm within them. "If I can make you die once, I can certainly do it a second time."

"Gu Xia, you are so stupid."

The girl gripped her sword and sneered, "So that's why those people from the Xuanming Sect refused to hand over your body, even lying that they had lost it. So that's what they were planning."

Li Tingyun and his fellow disciples: "..."

No, it's not that they're unwilling to pay.

It's not that they can't be found in the sect.

But Qu Yimian was clearly unaware of these cries of despair.

"Since you barely managed to survive, you should have hidden yourself well and not let me find you again. But not only did you not do that, you actually dared to swagger in front of me."

She completely disregarded Gu Xia's earlier resistance, her expression confident, revealing a faint smile tinged with malice. "Since you insist on coming to your death, then I'll grant your wish."

As soon as he finished speaking, the pressure of a half-step Tribulation Transcending expert was released without warning.

The disciples, who hadn't felt anything before, suddenly felt their knees buckle. The familiar oppressive feeling was as towering and heavy as a mountain. Everyone's breath hitched, and they surrendered their knees without any warning.

"..."

Oh shit.

The sound of the knees hitting the ground was loud, as if the bones were deeply embedded in them, making a cracking sound as they struggled.

Yu Heng was the first to explode, gritting his teeth and saying, "I will definitely kill her!"

This is an utter disgrace, a truly utter disgrace!

That son of a bitch has no sportsmanship and resorts to sneak attacks?

The scene was deathly silent, which made Gu Xia's presence stand out.

Qu Yimian couldn't help but frown. Having been at odds with Gu Xia for so long, she naturally knew that the other party was quite cunning.

Therefore, she wasn't too surprised to see that Gu Xia wasn't affected at all.

But these alone are not enough.

Qu Yimian's confidence stemmed from her current strength. She looked at them with a smile and said, "Gu Xia, you didn't expect this, did you? With my current level, I'm only one step away from the Tribulation Transcending stage. What do you have to fight me with?"

Yes, she did it on purpose.

Looking at her former adversaries who were now being crushed without warning, Qu Yimian felt better than ever before.

She said she would make these people regret it.

Yue Ming's expression turned cold. He quickly stopped the bleeding from his wound. A dull pain from the damage to his heart meridian came in waves. He frowned, and the sword hummed.

Regardless of the circumstances, he was, after all, the sect leader, and there was no reason for him to watch his disciples get into trouble right before his eyes.

Otherwise, if word gets out, the already dwindling reputation of the Qingyun Sect will be even more at risk.

However, there was someone who was faster than him.

Gu Xia didn't move her feet, but with a wave of her hand, she easily removed the oppressive force she had exerted.

In an instant, an invisible yet equally powerful spiritual force surged forth, meeting the menacing demonic energy head-on without flinching.

"is it?"

The disciples quickly got to their feet, drew their swords, and formed talismans, their faces showing vigilance.

Gu Xia raised her eyes, a slight smile playing on her lips, "Is transcending tribulation really that impressive?"

The overwhelming spiritual energy was both fierce and domineering.

The girl lowered her brows, her smile radiant.

"What a coincidence, I'm also undergoing tribulation."

In the cramped atmosphere, Qu Yimian's pupils gradually dilated.

His face was pale and bloodless.
