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

Lu Lingxi's lips curled into a wicked smile, like a poppy blooming quietly in the dark night, both beautiful and dangerous.

Her eyes gleamed with cunning and calculation as she parted her lips and slowly uttered two words—"Illusion Moon."

With this gentle call, "Phantom Moon," which had been hiding to the side, leisurely watching the battle, instantly sensed its master's summons. Its form began to blur and distort, like morning mist being pierced by the rising sun, quickly shedding its disguise. With a surge of spiritual energy in the air, an enormous wolf suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes. Its fur shimmered with a cold luster, and its eyes were as deep as the night, exuding an undeniable majesty.

Huan Yue moved swiftly and powerfully, appearing in front of Lin Ruohai almost instantly. Its sharp claws drew a dazzling arc in the air, accompanied by a low roar, and mercilessly struck the longsword that Lin Ruohai had painstakingly condensed. Under the impact of the enormous force, the longsword collapsed instantly like a fragile bubble, turning into wisps of dissipating light.

After completing this series of actions, the giant wolf did not stop there. Instead, it looked at Lin Ruohai in an almost provocative manner, its eyes full of contempt and disdain. Its voice was deep and powerful, echoing around.

"Old man, is this all the strength you've got?"

Lin Ruohai exclaimed inwardly, his body trembling uncontrollably. He felt his worldview being completely overturned, his eyes wide with disbelief.

As everyone knows, only the legendary sacred beasts can speak human language! And sacred beasts are equivalent to the spiritual saints among humans, possessing world-destroying power, and their status and strength far surpass that of a spiritual lord like myself.

Knowing that he could not escape today's calamity, Lin Ruohai slowly took out an exquisite jade bottle from his bosom. With the bottle slightly tilted, a crystal-clear Spirit Explosion Pill that emitted a faint spiritual light slid into his palm.

This elixir was his most treasured possession, said to be able to stimulate human potential and increase spiritual power in a very short time, although its duration was as brilliant and short-lived as fireworks.

Without the slightest hesitation, he put the Exploding Spirit Pill into his mouth. At that moment, it felt as if hundreds of streams of spiritual energy suddenly exploded within his body, bringing a tearing pain and a feeling of expansion.

However, the pain meant nothing to him. His eyes suddenly lit up, and the spiritual energy surrounding him surged and churned like waves whipped up by a raging storm.

In just a few seconds, his spiritual power surged at an astonishing speed, directly crossing the gap of several realms and reaching the level of Spirit Saint One Star.

It was a power he had never experienced before, as if the whole world was under his control. But this power came at a price. After this brief boost, his body and soul would become very tired, and he might even suffer irreparable injuries.

However, he had no time to care about any of that at that moment, and with a shout that resounded through the sky: "Frozen Hour!"

Immediately afterwards, the sky seemed to be torn apart by an irresistible force, and a huge ice ball formed from spiritual energy slowly condensed in the void. The ice ball was crystal clear, and there seemed to be thousands of ice crystals slowly rotating inside, revealing a terrifying destructive power.

It advanced steadily and relentlessly towards the direction of the Illusion Moon at an undeniable speed.

Wherever it went, it was covered by a thick layer of frost the moment it touched the ice puck, turning it into an eternal sculpture.

However, Huan Yue appeared unusually calm and composed, without the slightest panic. Just as the ice ball was about to touch it, a blazing fireball, like lava, burst forth from its slightly open mouth, instantly transforming into a raging inferno that devoured the cold ice ball without a trace, leaving only a wisp of rising heat that contrasted sharply with the surrounding cold air.

Before the flames had died down, Huan Yue's figure flashed like a ghost, moving at an astonishing speed. It suddenly pounced on Lin Ruohai, who was still in shock.

Lin Ruohai felt a blur before his eyes, and then felt himself being tightly gripped by an irresistible force, unable to move. Under Huan Yue's wolf claws, Lin Ruohai's body was torn to shreds.

Seeing Lin Ruohai's figure instantly shattered under the sharp and merciless claws of the Gale Wolf, his life force abruptly extinguished.

This scene pierced Lin Wenkang's heart like a sharp blade. His eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and he was consumed by rage. A heart-wrenching cry erupted from his throat: "Father!"

He roared, like a wild beast about to lose control, "Lu Lingxi Yao, prepare to die!"

Because he was outside the barrier, Lin Wenkang could only stand there, his eyes wide open, staring intently at Lu Lingxi Yao. He had nowhere to vent his anger and grief, so he could only turn them into sharp gazes, trying to penetrate the invisible barrier and strike the other person's heart.

The moonlight seemed to lose its gentleness at this moment, leaving only a cold, silvery glow.

The Lin family witnessed the most horrific scene—their patriarch was suddenly reduced to ashes by the wolf's claws, and fear instantly filled everyone's faces.

In an instant, screams, like startled night birds, shattered the tranquility of the Lin residence, and terror and despair intertwined into a chaotic sea.

People turned around and fled from this terrible nightmare, but their steps seemed to be bound by invisible chains, making each step feel extremely heavy.

It turns out that all of this was already part of Nalan Rongzhi's plan. He hid in the shadows and used his astonishing spiritual power to silently seal off the entire Lin family, turning this place into a huge cage, making the Lin family members like turtles in a jar, with nowhere to escape.

Lu Lingxi Yao, like a killing god emerging from the underworld, held the Flying Snow Sword. With a gentle wave of her hand, the barrier surrounding her quietly dissipated, as if announcing to everyone that the real slaughter was about to begin.

Lu Lingxi's voice was as cold as ice, devoid of any emotion, "Today is the day your Lin family will be wiped out. None of you will escape."

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure moved through the crowd like a ghost, leaving behind afterimages and bloodshed wherever the Flying Snow Sword passed.

At this moment, her spirit beast, Illusion Moon, also displayed its terrifying power, sometimes transforming into a shadow to silently reap lives, and sometimes transforming into a giant beast to intimidate the enemy with its own strength, ensuring that no one could escape this fateful judgment.

Inside the Lin family mansion, cries for mercy and the sounds of clashing weapons mingled together, creating a symphony of despair.

Lin Wenkang's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and a low, hoarse roar echoed throughout the Lin family compound—"Ah...! I'm going to kill you!"

Unbelievably, a faint yellow light enveloped Lin Wenkang's body. His body shot out like an arrow, heading straight for Lu Lingxi Yao. His speed was so fast that only a fleeting afterimage could be caught.

Just as they were about to reach their target, Lin Wenkang roared again, his voice deafening: "Mysterious Stone Forbidden Land—!"

As he called out, space seemed to distort. Then, the earth element in the world seemed to respond to his call, and an enormous, dark stone materialized out of thin air to the astonishment of the crowd, radiating a chilling pressure.

This enormous mysterious stone, as if controlled by an invisible hand, carried a world-destroying aura and crashed straight down towards Lu Lingxi Yao's location with lightning speed.

A look of surprise flashed in Lu Lingxi's eyes. She was slightly stunned, not expecting that Lin Wenkang was actually an earth-type spiritual cultivator.

Earth elemental energy is renowned for its impenetrable defense, second only to the indestructible metal element. It can freely manipulate soil, sand, and rocks in nature to construct insurmountable defensive barriers, making it an invincible shield on the battlefield.

However, Lu Lingxi also knew that all things in the world follow the principle of mutual generation and restraint. Even the seemingly invincible earth elemental power has its own restraint.

She shook her head slightly, pondering to herself: Everything in the world goes through cycles, and strength and weakness are not absolute. Water can wear away stone, and wind can stir up sand. Even the strongest barrier has its weaknesses. Lin Wenkang's earth elemental power is indeed powerful, but if he encounters an opponent who is proficient in wood or wind elemental power, that indestructible strength may become fragile.

Lu Lingxi's lips curled into a chilling sneer, "Since you insist on courting death, then I'll send you on your final journey—Vine Binding!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a dazzling green light suddenly emanated from her body. A thick and flexible vine spread out from beneath her feet, moving with astonishing speed and accurately binding the black stone that was rushing towards her and trying to engulf her.

With a gentle movement of her left hand, the vines seemed to respond to her will, binding her tightly. The surface of the black stone began to crack, and then with a "crack," it turned into countless tiny stone fragments, scattering all over the ground.

Immediately afterwards, she slowly opened her right palm, and a wisp of dark blue spiritual fire quietly condensed in her palm. This flame was unlike ordinary fire, carrying a trace of spiritual energy. With her will, the spiritual fire suddenly expanded, transforming into a giant dragon covered in raging flames, roaring towards the sky, and rushing towards Lin Wenkang with unstoppable force, wanting to turn all obstacles into ashes.

However, at this critical moment, a crystal-clear water dragon suddenly rose into the air from Lin Wenkang's direction and collided with the fire dragon in mid-air.

The collision of water and fire stirred up a sky full of steam and brilliant light. The fire dragon and the water dragon intertwined and canceled each other out, eventually turning into countless fine water droplets and sparks that slowly scattered.

"Hmph, you're still too green to fight us."

The Lin family members' spiritual energy surged around them, and they tacitly surrounded her, forming an impenetrable net of spiritual energy.

Lu Lingxi was at the center of the storm, and the pressure around her felt like a heavy burden. Although she knew that her cultivation was on par with these people, and even more advanced in some aspects, she couldn't help but feel powerless in the face of such a powerful alliance.

She knew that to escape unscathed from this battle, she would not only need to rely on her own cultivation, but also on her wisdom and adaptability. Otherwise, in this battle where she was outnumbered, she would undoubtedly be in an extremely disadvantageous position.

However, even when facing so many people, she remained calm and composed. Although her cultivation level was not high, she had plenty of ways to deal with them.

Sometimes, if something can be solved without using spiritual power, then it shouldn't be. When she started learning alchemy, she was already specializing in the research of poisons. Although poisons are despised by people in this world, since using poisons can save effort, why shouldn't she use them?

Lu Lingxi stood there quietly, without moving an inch.

Lin Wenkang stood at the head of the crowd, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips. "Hahahaha... A piece of trash is a piece of trash! This kind of scene is enough to scare you so much that you can't move."

Suddenly, Lu Lingxi Yao's figure transformed into a streak of light, her speed so swift that everything around her seemed slow and blurry.

Before anyone could catch a glimpse of that fleeting figure, a slender and elegant silhouette flashed before their astonished eyes, like a gentle breeze gliding through the forest.

Then, a fresh and elegant fragrance quietly spread, like a flower blooming in spring, without any worldly noise, leaving only a gentle and refreshing feeling.

When everyone finally recovered from the shock, they found that Lu Lingxi Yao had quietly stood in her original position, her face calm as still water, her eyes revealing a detached indifference.

A gentle breeze caressed Lu Lingxi Yao, who was dressed in a simple white dress that fluttered in the wind. Moonlight shone through the sparse clouds, illuminating her fair and delicate face and revealing an unusual, wicked smile.

"Phantom Moon, go home."

Upon seeing this, Lin Wenkang and the others were terrified and tried to stop them, but they found that their bodies were bound by invisible shackles and they could not move, not even lifting a finger. A bad premonition spread in their hearts instantly, and their eyes were filled with fear.

Just then, one of Lin Wenkang's guards suddenly let out a shrill scream. The sound was sharp and short. Then, in front of everyone's horrified eyes, the guard's body rapidly melted away, leaving only a pool of pus with an eerie luster.

"Useless trash, what exactly have you done to us?"

Lin Wenkang's voice trembled with fear. He could not accept this illogical scene before him, nor could he understand why he felt so powerless. He could only watch Lu Lingxi's figure gradually disappear into the distance in despair.

At dawn, as the first rays of sunlight shyly unveiled the veil of night, Guiyun City did not experience the usual tranquility and peace. Instead, it was enveloped by an unprecedented clamor and shock.

Shops on both sides of the street were not yet fully open, but pedestrians were hurrying and walking in close proximity, and everyone's face was filled with shock.

Teahouses, taverns, and even the streets and alleys became gathering places for people to discuss the matter. Voices rose and fell, weaving together a vast information network. The news of the Lin family's tragic massacre spread rapidly to every corner of Guiyun City.

"Have you heard? The Lin family, that once glorious and powerful first family, has suddenly fallen overnight..." Such conversations were endless. Everyone who mentioned this matter unconsciously lowered their voices, their eyes flashing with disbelief.

Even the children on the streets and alleys, unaware of what was going on, were affected by the sudden atmosphere. They slowed down their playful pace, curiously eavesdropping on the adults' conversations, their little eyes filled with doubt and confusion.

The Lin family mansion, once a magnificent and bustling place, is now deathly silent. Within its high walls and deep courtyards, the laughter and joy of yesteryear can no longer be heard. Only the tightly closed gates and empty courtyards silently tell the story of last night's tragedy.
