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

“We can’t keep running away passively like this.” Lu Lingxi stopped and turned to face the crowd. She looked around at Huan Yue, Huan Ying, Zhu Yin, and the Vermilion Bird circling in the sky. Everyone’s face was full of exhaustion, but their eyes still shone with an indomitable fighting spirit.

"We must take the initiative!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in everyone's eyes, which was then replaced by a strange excitement. Yes, they couldn't keep running away like this; they needed to fight back.

"Master, what do you intend to do?"

Huan Yue spoke first, his voice full of anticipation. As the team's speedster, he longed for a thrilling battle.

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." Lu Lingxi said in a deep voice. "The first thing we need to do is to find out the details of the Dark Star Pavilion, understand their operating methods, and the forces behind them." She paused and turned her gaze to Huan Yue. "Huan Yue, you are the fastest. The task of gathering intelligence is entrusted to you."

"Don't worry, Master!" Huan Yue patted her chest confidently, "I will definitely expose all the secrets of the Dark Star Pavilion!"

“Phantom, your plant-based spiritual power allows you to control plants, making you the best candidate to set traps,” Lu Lingxi Yao continued. “We need you to use the surrounding environment to set up some traps to deal with the Shadow Guards who are chasing us.”

“Leave it to me, Master.” Phantom smiled slightly. “I will let them taste the power of the Demon Blood Vine.”

"Zhuque, you continue to be in charge of aerial surveillance. If you spot any enemy activity, notify us immediately." Lu Lingxi looked up at the sky, where Zhuque's figure was faintly visible in the clouds. "Remember, safety first. Don't push yourself too hard."

"Understood, Master!" The Vermilion Bird's clear cry came from high above, carrying an undeniable firmness.

“Zhu Yin, you…” Lu Lingxi Yao looked at Zhu Yin with a hint of apology in her eyes, “You are skilled in medicine, and may not be of much help in combat, but your existence is crucial to us. Please make sure you protect yourself.”

"Don't worry, Miss Lu Ling, I will do my best to take care of myself and provide assistance at crucial moments," Zhu Yin said gently.

"Alright, let's get started!" Lu Lingxi took a deep breath, her eyes flashing with determination. "Let's give Dark Star Pavilion a surprise!"

Over the next few days, Lu Lingxi and the others found a relatively safe place to hide. Huan Yue transformed into a gust of wind and roamed around the Dark Star Pavilion's territory. With his amazing speed and keen senses, he successfully bypassed the Dark Star Pavilion's layers of defenses, infiltrated some outposts, and collected a large amount of intelligence.

He discovered that the Dark Star Pavilion's power was far greater than they had imagined. They not only had strongholds in various towns, but also secretly controlled some merchant guilds and gangs, and even had intricate connections with the royal families of some countries.

Their actions are secretive and their methods are cruel. They will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, including assassination, kidnapping, extortion, and all sorts of evil deeds.

What shocked Huan Yue even more was that he discovered a secret document in a stronghold. The document mentioned an organization called "Black Abyss," which seemed to be the real manipulator behind the Dark Star Pavilion. Their goal was not only to dominate the Nine Realms, but also to create a new order and establish a new world under their control.

"Black Abyss..." Huan Yue memorized the name, knowing that this organization would be their greatest enemy in the future.

Meanwhile, under Lu Lingxi Yao's guidance, Phantom used his plant-based spiritual power to set up one ingenious trap after another in the dense forest.

He manipulated the Demon Blood Vines to spread underground, forming a huge net. Once someone stepped into the trap's range, they would be entangled by the Demon Blood Vines and unable to escape.

He also used special plants to create various poisonous fogs and illusions to confuse and weaken the enemy's fighting power.

The Vermilion Bird soars high in the sky, constantly monitoring the surroundings. Her fiery eyes can see through all disguises, and no movement can escape her notice.

After everything was ready, Lu Lingxi decided to take the initiative and lure the experts from the Dark Star Pavilion into their pre-set ambush.

"Huan Yue, spread the word that we are seriously injured and are recuperating somewhere," Lu Lingxi Yao said to Huan Yue. "Remember, spread the word as widely as possible so that the people of Dark Star Pavilion believe that we are powerless to resist."

"Understood, Master!" Huan Yue accepted the order and left. Soon, news of Lu Lingxi and the others being seriously injured spread within the Dark Star Pavilion's territory.

As expected, the news quickly caught the attention of the Dark Star Pavilion, who dispatched a team of elite Shadow Guards to the location mentioned in the news, attempting to capture Lu Lingxi and the others in one fell swoop.

The leader of this team is a Shadow Guard Commander named "Shadow Wolf," who is powerful, ruthless, and a notorious killer in the Dark Star Pavilion.

He led dozens of shadow guards, rushing menacingly towards the direction where Lu Lingxi and the others were. However, they did not know that they had stepped into a trap carefully set by Lu Lingxi.

As they entered the depths of the dense forest, the surrounding environment suddenly changed. The once clear path became blurred, and the surrounding trees seemed to come alive, constantly twisting and deforming, making it impossible to distinguish directions.

"This is...an illusion?" Shadow Wolf frowned. He sensed something was wrong, but his years of combat experience kept him calm. "Everyone be careful, don't fall into the enemy's trap!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the ground suddenly cracked open, and countless thick vines emerged from the ground, coiling towards the shadow guards like giant pythons.

"It's the Demon Blood Vine!" a shadow guard exclaimed. "Everyone be careful, don't get entangled by it!"

The shadow guards drew their weapons and slashed at the vines, but the vines were incredibly tough and ordinary swords and knives could not cut them. Instead, they were scratched by the barbs on the vines.

Just as the shadow guards were fighting the vines, a thick black mist suddenly filled the surroundings. This mist not only obscured their vision but also carried a strong poison, causing dizziness and weakness in their limbs after inhalation.

"Oh no, it's poisonous!" Shadow Wolf's expression changed drastically. He quickly held his breath, but still inhaled some of the poisonous mist, and immediately felt weak. "Everyone, retreat!"

However, it was too late. Under the triple attack of illusion, vines, and poisonous fog, the Shadow Guards had lost their sense of direction and could not find a way to retreat. They could only run around in the dense forest, bumping into walls like headless flies.

"Hahaha……"

A chilling laugh echoed through the dense forest, and the phantom slowly materialized. He stood atop a massive tree, looking down at the beleaguered Shadow Guards. "Welcome to my domain. This will be your burial ground!"

"You beast, don't be so arrogant!" Shadow Wolf roared, enduring his physical discomfort as he charged towards the phantom. "Watch me kill you!"

However, he had only taken a few steps when a vine that had sprouted from the ground got tangled around his feet, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground.

"Want to kill me? You're not qualified!" Phantom sneered, his hands quickly forming hand seals, and more vines surged from the ground, wrapping around Shadow Wolf.

The shadow wolf struggled desperately, but to no avail. It was quickly bound into a tight knot by the vines and could not move.

The other shadow guards were also subdued by the vines, tied to the trees one by one, like lambs to the slaughter, powerless to resist.

"Vermilion Bird!" Lu Lingxi's voice rang out in the dense forest, "It's your turn to appear!"

"Screech!" A clear cry pierced the sky as the Vermilion Bird descended from the heavens. She spread her wings and spewed out a blazing flame, burning the bound shadow guards.

"what!"

The shadow guards let out shrill screams, but they were tightly bound by the vines and had no way to escape. They could only watch helplessly as the flames engulfed them.

Under the Vermilion Bird's fiery attack, the Shadow Guards were quickly burned to ashes, leaving only a charred mess and a pungent smell.

"Shadow Wolf, now it's your turn." Lu Lingxiyao slowly walked up to Shadow Wolf, looking down at him. "Speak, why does the Dark Star Pavilion want Star Grass? What exactly is the Black Abyss organization behind you?"

"Hmph, do you think I'd tell you?" Shadow Wolf sneered, his eyes filled with defiance. "Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

"Want to die? Not so easy!" Lu Lingxi sneered. She knew that ordinary torture was useless against a tough nut like Shadow Wolf; special methods had to be used. "Phantom, let him taste your 'worse than death'!"

“Yes, Master.” Phantom smiled slightly. He walked up to Shadow Wolf, extended a finger, and gently tapped Shadow Wolf’s forehead.

Instantly, Shadow Wolf felt a strange energy enter his body. This energy traveled throughout his body, and wherever it passed, his meridians, bones, and muscles experienced waves of intense pain. This pain was a hundred times more painful than being slowly sliced ​​to death, making him wish he were dead.

"Ah!" Shadow Wolf let out a heart-wrenching scream, his body trembling violently, veins bulging on his forehead, and sweat pouring down his face. "Kill me...please...kill me..."

"Want to die now? Too late!" Lu Lingxi said coldly. "Tell me everything I want to know, and I can give you a quick death. Otherwise, I will make you suffer this pain until you break down!"

Under the torment of "living a life worse than death," Shadow Wolf's willpower gradually collapsed. He could no longer endure this inhuman suffering and began to intermittently divulge information about Dark Star Pavilion and Black Abyss.

Through Shadow Wolf's confession, Lu Lingxi, Yao, and the others learned that Dark Star Pavilion was a massive assassin organization whose main missions were assassination and sabotage. Their goal was to eliminate all those who opposed Black Abyss and clear the way for Black Abyss to control the entire continent.

The Black Abyss, on the other hand, is an even more mysterious organization. Its members are all powerful and ambitious individuals who attempt to use the power of the Dark Star Pavilion to overthrow the existing order and establish a new world under their rule.

“So that’s how it is…” Lu Lingxi murmured to herself, “No wonder the Dark Star Pavilion is so relentlessly hunting us down; it turns out we’ve become a stumbling block in their plan.”

"Master, what should we do next?" Huan Yue asked. "Should we just storm the Dark Star Pavilion's lair and wipe them out in one fell swoop?"

“No, it’s not the right time yet.” Lu Lingxi shook her head. “The Dark Star Pavilion is a powerful force with many experts. We don’t have enough strength to confront them head-on right now.”

Moreover, the existence of the Black Abyss forces us to act cautiously; we cannot act rashly before we have a clear understanding of their capabilities.

"So we're just going to keep taking hits like this?" Huan Yue said somewhat unwillingly.

“Of course not.” A sly glint flashed in Lu Lingxi’s eyes. “We need to continue luring them out of their hole, taking down the Dark Star Pavilion’s experts one by one, and weakening their strength.”

At the same time, we must find ways to contact more forces resisting the Dark Star Pavilion and the Black Abyss. Only by uniting all forces that can be united can we ultimately defeat them.

"Master is wise!" Huan Yue and the others said in unison, their eyes filled with admiration and confidence.

"Alright, this matter is resolved, we should leave now," Lu Lingxi said. "Phantom, disarm the trap, let's go to the next place."

"Yes, Master," Phantom replied, and began to disarm the traps in the dense forest.

Before leaving, Lu Lingxi glanced at the Shadow Wolf and said calmly, "I'll give you a chance to live. Go back and tell your master that I, Lu Lingxi, will personally destroy the Dark Star Pavilion and the Black Abyss. Let them wash their necks and wait!"

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Shadow Wolf alone trembling in place.

In the days that followed, Lu Lingxi and the others continued to travel across the continent, using various means to lure the experts of the Dark Star Pavilion into traps, and then defeat them one by one.

During the battle, Lu Lingxi Yao's combat skills and strategies were fully demonstrated. She not only skillfully used various spiritual powers for attack and defense, but also formulated corresponding tactics based on the characteristics of the enemy, making it difficult for the enemy to defend against.

Phantom Moon, Phantom Shadow, and Vermilion Bird also grew stronger in battle, their strength increased, and their teamwork became more and more seamless.

Although Zhu Yin was not good at fighting, he used his medical skills to save many people persecuted by the Dark Star Pavilion, winning widespread praise and respect. His benevolence and medical skills also won more support and help for Lu Lingxi, Yao, and others.

Throughout this series of events, Lu Lingxi's longing for Nalan Rongzhi deepened. "Rongzhi, wait for me!" Lu Lingxi silently said in her heart, her eyes filled with determination and tenderness.

As time went on, Lu Lingxi and her group became more and more active, and their achievements became more and more brilliant. One by one, the experts of the Dark Star Pavilion fell under their swords, and their reputation grew louder and louder, making them a thorn in the side of the Dark Star Pavilion and the Black Abyss.

In battle after battle, Lu Lingxi and her companions became a team that struck fear into the hearts of their enemies. Their actions also attracted increasing attention, and some forces that resisted the Dark Star Pavilion and the Black Abyss began to contact them, hoping to cooperate with them to fight against the forces of darkness.

Lu Lingxi and Yao also realized that the time was gradually ripe. They needed to unite these scattered forces to form a powerful force in order to contend with the Dark Star Pavilion and the Black Abyss.
