Rebirth of a Quasi-Immortal Spirit

"Which one?" Gao Zhun glanced at Wu Yaqiu Bai's gesture of rubbing her thumb, index finger, and middle finger, and immediately understood. He patted his chest and said, "Miss Wu Yaqiu, please rest assured, as long as I have a bowl of porridge to drink in the Gao family, I will make sure you have a bowl of rice soup."

Upon hearing this, Wuya Qiubai solemnly counted on her fingers and said, "No, no, no, it's not one bowl. Let me calculate, it should be four bowls."

"Tsk tsk, it seems we've missed a lot of good shows." Although Mo Nishang didn't know what had happened during the time she was under the illusion, she couldn't help but speak up when she saw Gao Zhun and Wu Yaqiubai acting like best buddies. Especially when she saw Gao Zhun's actions, she showed a charming smile: "Although I don't know why you've grown so much taller, if you keep taking pictures like this, you won't grow up."

"..." Gao Zhun looked at Mo Nishang, who had somehow broken free from Wu Yaqiubai's Blood Prison Illusion, with a dark expression. She suddenly felt fortunate that under the suppression of the laws of the Immortal Spirit Continent, the path between her cousin and this woman would be very difficult. Moreover, one of them was a demon and the other was a human. In short, she didn't have to worry about Mo Nishang appearing in her life soon. Otherwise, even with the boost of her cultivation, she felt that she would have a hard time surviving under such pressure until adulthood.

After all, Mo Ni Chang's sharp tongue is incredibly lethal.

Upon seeing Mo Nishang and Xuan Yuan Huanyu emerge from the illusion, Wu Ya Qiu Bai was quite shocked, setting aside Mo Nishang's words. She immediately said, "Hmm? My Blood Prison couldn't even hold you two for a quarter of an hour?"

"So it's Blood Prison, no wonder..." Xuan Yuan Huan Yu couldn't help but linger on Wu Ya Qiu Bai for a few more seconds. After all, Blood Prison was different from the Illusionary Heavenly Mirror, which required the Heavenly Mirror to use. It was cultivated solely based on the cultivator's own physical attributes. Such eye techniques, which were not awakened by bloodline talent, were rarely so powerful. Even if they were, the great perseverance and wisdom required for cultivation and eye opening, like Blood Prison, were beyond the reach of ordinary people. It seemed that Wu Ya Qiu Bai was indeed no ordinary person.

Thinking of this, Xuan Yuan Huan Yu glanced at Gao Zhun a few more times. She and Mo Ni Chang hadn't been mistaken. It seemed that in the less than fifteen minutes they were trapped by the illusion, the relationship between Gao Zhun and Wu Ya Qiu Bai, who should have been their enemy, had developed in an unusual way. Her cousin seemed to have been building various relationships with these new generation geniuses ever since they met. It felt like this situation was foreshadowing something.

"Hehe, the battle is over. I imagine the troops we tricked into leaving Akomo have realized what's happening and are rushing over here. As for the result of this first clash, it's clear that I, this young lady, have won decisively. However, I have given you a powerful ally. Next time, it will be difficult to ambush you like today." Wuya Qiubai smiled playfully at Yun Muning. This battle was undeniably brilliant for her. Upon returning, the Blood Shadow and Light Shadow Alliance would undoubtedly treat her differently from the other extraterrestrial envoys. But wasn't this the treatment she, Wuya Qiubai, deserved? As a member of the Wuya family, she should be the most dazzling star wherever she goes. However, she glanced lightly at the other three present. She didn't mind that there were many other stars shining brightly under the same sky as her.

After all, Wuya Qiubai was not a petty or jealous person.

Yun Mu Ning avoided Wu Ya Qiu Bai's smiling face, which seemed to radiate endless light in the sunlight. Instead, she put on an expression that seemed to be filled with some kind of regret, and said in an unpleasant tone, "So what if you ganged up on the few and ambushed them, and won a small victory? What are you so proud of? If you want to leave, then leave quickly, otherwise, when our reinforcements arrive, we will turn the tables on your victory obtained through trickery."

"Tsk tsk, Xiao Ning, you're still so two-faced. You clearly want me to stay, but you say such vicious things. If you keep being so dishonest, how will you make friends besides me?" At this point, Wu Yaqiu shook her head. "That's not right. I'm not Xiao Ning's friend either."

Upon hearing this, the fleeting sadness on Yun Mu Ning's face did not escape Wu Ya Qiu Bai's eyes. She then continued in a gentle tone that she herself had never imagined, "This young lady has long considered herself to be more than just Xiao Ning's friend."

The somber look was quickly replaced by a blush of embarrassment. Yun Mu Ning, feeling both ashamed and annoyed, unleashed a powerful wind attack towards Wu Ya Qiu Bai. This woman, not only did she have a deceptively youthful face, but her mouth was also so incredibly embarrassing. Yun Mu Ning had never been treated with such disrespect before. However, when facing Wu Ya Qiu Bai, all her pride crumbled. Especially when she realized that the mental walls she had built were crumbling, she felt even more unbearable. But, it was entirely her own fault for being troubled.

She had cursed him, and she had hit him countless times, but he always had that carefree and nonchalant attitude, which was really infuriating. Why was she the only one struggling internally while he remained calm and collected? Didn't Wuya Qiubai know that all her emotional fluctuations only manifested in her?

No, Wuya Qiubai knew, and Yun Muning knew too. So, that woman was just deliberately teasing her, like playing with a monkey, finding it amusing to see her make a fool of herself.

Seeing Yun Mu Ning's expression of wanting to devour her alive, Wu Ya Qiu Bai knew that the child was getting stuck on a rut again. She sighed inwardly. Sometimes she would wonder what kind of education the Yun family had given Yun Mu Ning. How could they have raised her to be so awkward? She didn't know what she wanted, didn't pursue what she craved, and didn't understand what others were thinking. She was practically an idiot who was all-knowing except for cultivation. So, the problem of re-educating little Yun Mu Ning gloriously fell on her shoulders. Who told her to love doing such thankless things the most?

However, she couldn't just ignore the attack. It wasn't that she was afraid of getting hurt; having a good understanding of the Heavenly Illusion Mirror, she naturally knew that everything about her was protected by the Mirror Spirit—Tianhua. But Yun Mu Ning's attack was a powerful wind-based attack. If it hit her, who knew where she'd be blown off to? Tsk tsk, it seems she'd gone too far with the stimulation? Otherwise, how could her little Ning be so ruthless?

However, just as Wuya Qiubai was about to dodge, she felt a weakness coming from the depths of her soul. Her heart tightened, and a bitter smile appeared on her lips. How embarrassing! She had actually forgotten that she had just used Blood Prison and that her soul power was severely insufficient. In her current state, it was a complete pipe dream to avoid this wind-type attack known for its speed.

After completing the transaction with Wuya Qiubai, Gao Zhun had been watching the show from the sidelines. However, she didn't expect Yun Muning to attack without warning. Wuya Qiubai was, after all, her great benefactor. How could she not help her benefactor in trouble? In addition, with the awakening of her Eye of Truth, she finally understood why she could see through the contents of storage containers. It seemed that her Eye of Truth had already shown signs of awakening at that time. Such a powerful pupil technique would take forever to awaken on its own, since she was surnamed Gao and did not have the qualifications to inherit the bloodline of the Xuanyuan family.

Although Po Wang, now fully awakened, is in a dormant state, her previously visible internal vision has been enhanced. With just one glance, she discovered that a phantom figure inside Wu Ya Qiu Bai's body was in a very weak state. Yes, it must be because she had just helped her awaken Po Wang, resulting in excessive consumption of her soul power. In that case, she could not stand idly by.

However, just as Gao Zhun set off, Yun Mu Ning, the one who launched the attack, moved even faster. The originally swift wind-type attack was slightly inferior to Yun Mu Ning's attack. Before long, the latter overtook the former and attacked first, arriving in front of Wu Ya Qiu Bai.

"You stubborn idiot." Yun Mu Ning cursed under her breath, then grabbed Wu Ya Qiu Bai's arm. In the blink of an eye, the two disappeared from the spot. The wind-type attack naturally missed completely and dissipated on its own after passing through the attack range.

Looking at the empty space ahead, Gao Zhun said with a bitter face, "I feel like my weak heart has been hit by a thousand points of damage."

Before she knew it, she was being shown up again. So, what was the point of her trip to Nanning?

Xuanyuan Huanyu didn't care about Gao Zhun's mood at the moment, but just looked at the place where Yun Mu Ning and the other person had disappeared, lost in thought.

"Truly worthy of being the holder of the Heavenly Splendor Mirror, able to teleport at will within this illusory Heavenly Splendor. It's fortunate that we chose Akomo back then, otherwise, if we had faced Yun Mu Ning instead, the final battle would have been truly difficult to win." Xuan Yuan Huan Yu remained silent, but Mo Ni Chang mimicked the former's expression and tone, making it sound as if the words truly came from him.

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Huanyu was taken aback at first, then the corners of her mouth curved slightly into a smile before she lowered her lips and forced an icy expression.

Gao Zhun covered her cheek; the sweet smell of romance in the air was almost making her faint from the sweetness of her teeth. "Cousin, stop pretending. Everyone else is still trapped in the illusion and can't get out. There are only the three of us here. Laugh if you want. Anyway, I'm used to being shown up by you guys. Don't worry about me. I've already accepted that I'm a miserable single dog."
