Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

Lu Lingxi Yao traversed the spatial crevices, the compass in her hand growing increasingly frantic. The compass needle spun wildly, finally pointing straight to a vast spatial fragment that unfolded like a sky curtain. Within the fragment was a desolate Gobi Desert, with gale-force winds and yellow sand like a sea, a boundless expanse between heaven and earth.

A resolute glint flashed in Lu Lingxi's eyes, and without hesitation, she leaped into the void. In an instant, a powerful spatial force enveloped her tightly, and when she opened her eyes again, she found herself in the desolate Gobi Desert.

"Rong Zhi! Qinglong!" she shouted at the top of her lungs, but her voice was torn apart by the howling wind.

Suddenly, a familiar sword aura, like a black lightning bolt, swept in from afar. Lu Lingxi Yao's heart trembled, and her eyes filled with joy. "It's Nalan Rongzhi's demonic sword aura!" She moved swiftly, like a wisp of green smoke, rushing towards the source of the sword aura.

Passing through the swirling yellow sand, she finally saw the figure she had longed for. Nalan Rongzhi was locked in combat with a group of eerie black shadows. His demonic sword drew black arcs in the air, each strike containing a sharp killing intent. Qinglong was also beside him, his long sword transforming into azure lightning as he fiercely battled the shadows.

"Rong Zhi!" Lu Lingxi called out softly, and the Flying Snow Sword was instantly drawn. The sword exuded a chilling aura, instantly freezing several dark figures into ice sculptures.

Nalan Rongzhi turned around upon hearing the voice, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes the moment he saw Lu Lingxi Yao, but it was quickly replaced by worry. His brows furrowed, and his voice was filled with anxiety, "Yao Yao, why are you here? It's too dangerous here!"

"How could I abandon you all!" Lu Lingxi flew to his side and stood back to back with him. "What are these things? Why are they so troublesome?"

With a single sword strike, Qinglong cleaved through a dark shadow and said in a deep voice, "These are spatial creatures that feed on spatial power. We have been trapped here for half a year, constantly dealing with them. Their numbers are numerous, making them difficult to eradicate completely."

Just then, a deafening roar suddenly came from afar, and the entire space shook violently. The aftershocks of the battle between Yuheng and the city lord had actually reached this place!

"Not good!" Qinglong's expression changed drastically, his voice filled with urgency, "The space is about to collapse! We must leave immediately!"

Lu Lingxi Yao immediately took out the jade pendant, only to see that the light on the jade pendant had become extremely weak, clearly indicating that Yuheng's condition was not optimistic.

She gritted her teeth, took out a pill from her bosom, and a resolute glint flashed in her eyes, "Take this, and we'll force our way through!"

The three swallowed the pills at the same time, and instantly felt their spiritual power surge like a river bursting its banks. Lu Lingxi Yao summoned the Flying Snow Sword, while Nalan Rongzhi's Demon Sword and Qinglong's Longsword were drawn simultaneously. The three sword energies intertwined in the air, forming a huge energy vortex that exuded a heart-palpitating pressure.

"break!"

The three of them shouted at the same time, and their sword energy soared into the sky, like a sharp blade, tearing apart the collapsing space. At the last moment before the space completely collapsed, they finally escaped and regained their freedom.

A dazzling light ripped through the sky, and Lu Lingxi, Nalan Rongzhi, and Qinglong fell out of the spatial rift, crashing heavily into a lush bamboo forest. The fresh scent of bamboo wafted over them, a stark contrast to the desolation of the Gobi Desert they had just passed through.

"This is... Emerald Bamboo Manor?" Qinglong looked around and said with some surprise. He remembered that this was a famous hidden sect in the martial arts world, known for its medical skills.

Nalan Rongzhi helped Lu Lingxi up, his eyes full of concern, "Yaoyao, are you alright?"

Lu Lingxi shook her head, about to speak, when suddenly a wave of dizziness struck. The aftereffects of forcibly breaking through space began to appear, and the three of them turned pale and swayed almost simultaneously.

"Who is making such a racket at my Green Bamboo Manor?"

A clear, crisp voice rang out, followed by a white figure emerging from the depths of the bamboo forest and landing in front of the three. The newcomer was a girl of sixteen or seventeen, dressed in snow-white robes, with bright eyes and white teeth, holding a jade flute in her hand.

Seeing the three of them, the girl's expression changed. "You... came out of a spatial rift?"

Before they could answer, she quickly stepped forward to take their pulses. "The backlash from the spatial power has severely damaged your meridians. Come with me!"

Led by the girl, the three arrived at a secluded bamboo house. The girl took out several pills and handed them to them, saying, "These are 'Return to Origin Pills' specially made by our Green Bamboo Manor. They can repair meridians."

After taking the pills, the three felt a cool sensation flow through their bodies, and their tense meridians gradually relaxed.

Lu Lingxi looked at the girl gratefully, her voice soft and sincere: "Thank you for saving us, young lady. If you hadn't intervened in time, we probably would have..." She paused, then gently shook her head, "May I ask how you are addressed, young lady?"

A faint smile appeared on the girl's lips. "My name is Zhu Qingying, and I am the young master of Emerald Bamboo Manor." A hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes. "You were able to survive the spatial rift, so you must not be ordinary people. Why don't you recuperate at my Emerald Bamboo Manor for a few days until your injuries are healed?"

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility inside the bamboo house. A young man in blue rushed in, his face filled with panic and anxiety: "Young Master! Something terrible has happened! The City Lord has sent people here, saying they want to search the manor!"

Zhu Qingying's smile froze instantly, her face darkened, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes: "They came really fast." She turned to the three of them, her tone apologetic, "You rest here first, I'll deal with them."
