A magical journey of a sharp-tongued woman and a goofy man

"Wait!" The icy voice, like a sharp blade of ice, instantly froze the celebratory atmosphere in the square.

Before anyone could react, a dark figure crashed down like a meteorite, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Once the dust settled, a man dressed in black with a cold and stern face stood proudly, exuding a suffocating aura.

An unparalleled expert has appeared!

The shock of being countered by Ye Shuli was only momentary. Now, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and his killing intent was chilling.

He slowly raised his hand, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy instantly swept across the entire area, creating an oppressive atmosphere.

"You ants dare to dream of becoming kings and rulers?" he said contemptuously, as if looking at two overconfident ants.

Before he finished speaking, he flashed away, moving so fast that it was impossible for the naked eye to catch him.

Ye Shuli only felt a blur before her eyes, and the peerless expert was already within arm's reach.

A fierce palm wind howled in, carrying an overwhelming force, as if it wanted to crush her into dust.

"Holy crap, is this for real?!" Ye Shuli cursed inwardly, not daring to be careless.

She lightly touched the ground with her toes, her body swaying erratically, barely dodging the fatal blow.

The crowd in the square watched in trepidation, not daring to breathe loudly, for fear of disturbing this earth-shattering battle.

"Interesting." The peerless expert did not give up after his first attack failed; instead, he intensified his offensive.

Fists flew in layers, palm strikes were sharp as knives, and a storm swept in like a tempest.

Ye Shuli constantly looked for opportunities to counterattack during the intervals between attacks, her eyes firm and showing no sign of backing down.

Just then, the leader of the followers also joined the battle, forming a pincer movement with the peerless expert.

Ye Shuli suddenly felt immense pressure, but she didn't panic; instead, she became even calmer.

She skillfully used her surroundings, sometimes dodging attacks, sometimes using their force against them, her movements light and graceful, as if dancing on the edge of a knife.

The onlookers were on tenterhooks, as if they themselves were in danger.

They were worried for Ye Shuli, but were also inspired by her calmness and courage, and a glimmer of hope ignited in their hearts.

"Little Li'er!" An anxious voice broke the tense atmosphere...

Jiang Ye was extremely anxious to see Ye Shuli in danger.

He roared, his spiritual energy surging as he tried to break through the crowd to help her.

However, the peerless expert merely glanced at him disdainfully, and with a wave of his hand, an invisible barrier firmly trapped Jiang Ye.

"You overconfident brat, stay put!"

Jiang Ye was trapped inside the barrier, pounding on it frantically like a caged beast, but to no avail.

He was sweating profusely with anxiety, watching helplessly as Ye Shuli struggled to hold on between two powerful Spirit Kings, his heart aching as if being torn apart.

"Little Li'er! Damn it!" He gritted his teeth, a wave of powerlessness washing over him.

Ye Shuli's heart tightened when she heard Jiang Ye's roar.

She knew Jiang Ye was worried about her, but she was in dire straits herself and had no time to care about him.

The attacks from the peerless experts and their leader were like a storm, leaving her exhausted.

She gritted her teeth, her eyes growing increasingly sharp.

"Don't get distracted, Ye Shuli!" she kept reminding herself.

The peerless expert keenly noticed Ye Shuli's distraction, and a cruel smile appeared on his lips.

"Looks like you still have a weakness." He said coldly, his attack becoming even more intense.

The palm strikes were like knives, each move deadly, aimed directly at Ye Shuli's vital points.

The followers and their leader also launched a coordinated attack, forcing Ye Shuli into a desperate situation.

At this critical moment, a loud, aged voice suddenly rang out from the crowd: "Starfall Array, activate!" The wise elder was seen forming hand seals and chanting incantations.

Ancient runes appeared out of thin air, intertwining to form a huge array that enveloped the peerless powerhouse and his followers.

"What's going on?!" The peerless expert and the leader of his followers were both shocked. Their attacks were blocked by the formation, and they could no longer get close to Ye Shuli.

The crowd in the square was stunned by this sudden turn of events and began to discuss it amongst themselves.

"This is... the Starfall Array? A legendary array that can trap even a Spirit King level expert?" "Elder Sage actually knows this long-lost array!"

Ye Shuli took this opportunity to catch her breath and adjust her state.

She glanced at Jiang Ye, who was trapped inside the barrier, her eyes resolute.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely win!"

She took a deep breath, slowly raised her right hand, and a dazzling light began to gather in her palm...

"What... what kind of power is this?" The continental guardian stared at Ye Shuli, muttering to himself.

The light in Ye Shuli's palm grew brighter and brighter, like a rising sun illuminating the entire square.

This power did not come from any known system in this world, but from the artifact she acquired when she traveled through time—a seemingly ordinary ancient jade pendant.

At this moment, the pendant's power was fully unleashed, emitting energy fluctuations that caused the heavens and earth to change color.

"Holy crap, what the hell is this?!" The peerless expert's expression changed drastically, his original contempt and arrogance instantly replaced by terror.

He felt like a tiny ant facing an erupting volcano, powerless to resist and only able to tremble in fear.

A beam of light shot into the sky, forming a massive pillar that pierced the heavens.

The people in the square were shocked by this powerful force and covered their eyes, unable to look directly at it.

Even the continental guardians showed surprise, muttering to themselves, "This power... could it be..."

"Little Li'er, keep going! You're the best!" Jiang Ye's voice came from inside the barrier. Although he was trapped, the trust and love in his eyes did not diminish at all.

Hearing Jiang Ye's voice, Ye Shuli felt a warm current surge in her heart.

She felt Jiang Ye's unconditional support, which strengthened her resolve to fight.

The surrounding air seemed to warm up, and a cozy atmosphere spread, a stark contrast to the tense atmosphere of the previous battle.

Ye Shuli's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"Is that all you've got? You dare to yell at me?" Her tone was icy, yet full of power.

"Who...who exactly are you?" the peerless expert asked in terror, his voice trembling.

"I'm someone you can't afford to offend!" Ye Shuli sneered, the light in her palm shining even brighter, as if it were about to devour the entire world.

"Now, it's my turn!" Her eyes sharpened, and she abruptly thrust the light in her hand towards the peerless expert...

"Take this! I'll show you what true power is!"

The light from Ye Shuli's palm shot out like an arrow, instantly breaking through the attack of the peerless expert and heading straight for the leader of the followers.

The light was so fast that the leader of the followers had no time to react and could only watch helplessly as it came towards them.

"Holy crap! What the hell?!" the leader of the followers exclaimed, hastily gathering spiritual energy to protect himself.

However, the power of this light far exceeded his imagination.

With a deafening roar, the light struck the leader of the followers, blasting him away and sending him crashing to the ground, his fate unknown.

"Boss!" The followers were thrown into chaos. Their previous arrogance vanished, and they panicked, running around like headless flies.

"This...this is too strong!" Upon seeing this, the civilians watching the battle were greatly encouraged, and their cheers resounded through the sky.

"Miss Ye is mighty! Miss Ye is awesome!" They waved their flags and cheered for Ye Shuli, as if they could see the dawn of victory.

"Damn it! How dare you hurt my people!" The peerless expert roared, his eyes bloodshot, like a raging beast.

He clasped his hands together abruptly, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from him and spread outwards.

"Break!" he roared, instantly shattering the formation that bound him.

The fragments of the formation scattered like meteors, crashing to the ground with deafening roars.

"Our leader is mighty!" Upon seeing this, the followers immediately regained their morale and shouted in unison.

The peerless expert and the leader of his followers joined forces again, and an even more powerful spiritual energy fluctuation emanated from them, exuding an oppressive aura that seemed poised to level the entire plaza.

Just then, the sky suddenly darkened, with thick clouds gathering and lightning flashing and thunder roaring.

An ominous aura spread, sending chills down one's spine.

"What...what's going on?" someone in the crowd asked in a trembling voice.

"Could it be..." The wise elder looked up at the sky, his face solemn, and murmured to himself, his tone filled with worry.

The wind howled, making people's clothes flutter loudly.

The world was shrouded in darkness, as if something terrible was about to descend.

Ye Shuli gazed at the gloomy sky, her eyes resolute, a cold smile playing on her lips.

"Come on, let me see what other tricks you have!"
