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

Ye Shuli closed her eyes and entered a "meditation" state, as if she had activated a speed boost on a highway, flooring the accelerator and frantically deciphering the unknown information hidden within the inherited power.

Jiang Ye stood by, like a quiet and handsome man, silently protecting her.

Although he really wanted to interject, "Li'er, do you want me to play 'Good Luck' for you to boost your luck?", he obediently shut his mouth when he saw Ye Shuli's expression of being on high alert.

The surrounding spiritual energy fluctuations also joined in the fun, buzzing like they were on vibrate mode, and a sense of tension, as if "high energy ahead," filled the air.

Ye Shuli felt like she was playing an extremely difficult puzzle game, with every clue hidden tightly, determined to drain her every last brain cell.

She was eager to explore the secrets of the inheritance, but she was also afraid of accidentally stepping on a landmine and ending the game immediately.

This feeling is like knowing there's treasure ahead, but there are traps all around you, and you could be blown to bits in one step.

Her inner monologues are more dramatic than any prime-time soap opera.

One minute it's "Charge! To become stronger!", the next it's "No, no, hold on! Don't be reckless!"

This inner turmoil was clearly revealed in her shifting gaze.

Jiang Ye watched her frown, grit her teeth, and then give him an "I understand" look. He felt a pang of heartache and wanted to hold her in his arms and tell her, "It's okay, even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up!"

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

He knew that what Ye Shuli needed right now was not comfort, but a quiet environment so that she could focus on her research.

The atmosphere became somewhat somber, like the calm before a storm.

Ye Shuli was torn between her inner thoughts and her fears, but in the end, curiosity triumphed over fear.

She decided that fortune favors the bold, and that one must venture into danger to catch the tiger cubs!

"I'll give it my all!" she encouraged herself, then took a deep breath, trying to seize that fleeting inspiration.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes wide.

"I think... I've found a clue..." Ye Shuli's eyes shone brightly, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, as if she had discovered a new continent.

"This feels...like connecting to Wi-Fi, with the speed skyrocketing to 5G!" She excitedly searched her mind frantically, piecing together the fragmented information.

She sensed that this inherited power contained an extremely powerful spiritual skill, like a sealed treasure waiting for her to discover.

Although only a small portion has been analyzed so far, it is already enough to excite her.

"Wow, that's amazing?!" Ye Shuli couldn't help but exclaim in her heart, her eyes sparkling with excitement like the brightest star in the night sky.

Seeing her progress, Jiang Ye couldn't help but feel happy for her. A smile appeared on his previously tense face, like the sun finally shining after a rainy day.

"Li'er, it seems you're about to take off right here and debut as a core member!" he teased with a smile, his tone full of pride.

The previously dull atmosphere instantly became lively, and the air was filled with cheerful energy.

However, the good times did not last long.

Just then, the presence of several uninvited guests broke the brief tranquility.

A few henchmen from the Spirit Realm Power Alliance approached tentatively, like cats smelling fish.

"Heh, looks like these guys haven't given up yet!" Jiang Ye's eyes sharpened, and he instantly entered battle mode.

He rushed to Ye Shuli's side and shielded her behind him like a loyal wolfhound.

"A few small fry, daring to come and die?" Jiang Ye curled his lips in disdain, his spiritual power surging around him. Although he was only at the early stage of the Spirit Realm, his aura was in no way inferior.

"Oh ho, this little guy's pretty arrogant?" one of the henchmen said with a sneer. "You've chosen the path to hell when there's one. Today we'll show you what happens when you offend the Spirit Realm Power Alliance!"

Before he could finish speaking, several henchmen swarmed forward, unleashing a barrage of spiritual attacks upon Jiang Ye.

Although Jiang Ye tried his best to resist, the difference in strength was too great, and he soon found himself unable to hold on.

boom! boom! boom!

With a few muffled thuds, Jiang Ye was knocked back several steps, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"Jiang Ye!" Ye Shuli's eyes sharpened instantly upon seeing this, and her anger surged.

"Li'er, don't worry about me, focus on studying your inherited power!" Jiang Ye roared, enduring the pain.

Seeing Jiang Ye get injured while protecting her, Ye Shuli felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if she were being pricked by needles.

She took a deep breath, her eyes hardened, and a powerful aura surged within her.

"Looks like it's time to teach these arrogant fools a lesson..."

She slowly raised her head, a cold smile curling at the corner of her lips, her eyes flashing with a dangerous light.

"Jiang Ye, step back..." Ye Shuli raised her hands, the power of inheritance surging in her palms, the power was like a materialized flame, shining with a mysterious light.

The henchmen felt an overwhelming sense of oppression wash over them, their eyes filled with terror.

Ye Shuli waved her hand gently, and the power of inheritance surged towards them like a raging wave.

With a loud "boom," the henchmen were sent flying like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily to the ground. They fled in a disheveled state, glancing back in terror as they ran, fearing that Ye Shuli would catch up again.

Jiang Ye stared wide-eyed, his eyes filled with admiration, like a fan looking at their idol.

The surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be infected by Ye Shuli's power, pulsating joyfully as if cheering for her victory.

Jiang Ye regained his senses, quickly walked to Ye Shuli's side, and gently put his arm around her shoulder.

Ye Shuli's face flushed slightly, like a ripe apple. She leaned against Jiang Ye, feeling his body temperature and strong heartbeat, enjoying this moment of warmth.

This ambiguous atmosphere intensified after the battle, making them feel as if they were in a world that belonged only to the two of them, temporarily forgetting the dangers around them.

Just then, a dark figure slowly approached from afar, emanating an unsettling aura.

Jiang Ye and Ye Shuli looked up alertly. Jiang Ye shielded Ye Shuli behind him, his eyes fixed on the dark figure. Ye Shuli closed her eyes and entered a meditative state again.

The power of inheritance unfolded in her mind like a huge map, clearly marking a location that shimmered with a strange light.

"Found it!" Ye Shuli suddenly opened her eyes and excitedly grabbed Jiang Ye's hand. "It's the forbidden area of ​​the Spirit Realm—the Netherworld Abyss!"

Upon hearing the words "forbidden area," Jiang Ye subconsciously swallowed. "Judging from the name, this place doesn't seem like a safe haven... But, Li'er, wherever you go, I'll go. After all, I'm your personal bodyguard!" He grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth, trying to mask his inner unease with a relaxed tone.

The Netherworld Abyss is located in the far north of the Spirit Realm, covered in ice and snow all year round. It is said to be the place with the most chaotic spiritual energy, full of dangers, and nine out of ten people who go in never come back.

But Ye Shuli believed that there must be a reason why the power of inheritance had guided her here.

Without the slightest hesitation, they immediately set off for the Netherworld Abyss.

Along the way, Ye Shuli continuously studied the power of inheritance, trying to find more information about the Netherworld Abyss.

Jiang Ye remained vigilant at all times, protecting Ye Shuli's safety.

They were like two bolts of lightning, speeding across the land of the spirit world, leaving behind afterimages.

"High-energy warning ahead!" Jiang Ye suddenly shouted, grabbing Ye Shuli and narrowly avoiding a sudden attack.

"What's going on?" Ye Shuli asked, still shaken.

"They're scum from the Spirit Realm Power Alliance! It seems they've been lying in wait here all along!" Jiang Ye said coldly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Heh, they really are persistent!" Ye Shuli sneered, a cold glint flashing in her eyes. "Then let them see what true strength is!"

However, just as they were preparing to fight back, they discovered that the surrounding scenery had changed.

The original scenery began to distort, space seemed to be torn apart, and a powerful restrictive force enveloped them.

"Oh no, it's a trap!" Jiang Ye's expression changed, and he exclaimed in alarm.

"Hehe, little brat, you've finally fallen into my hands!" A cold voice came from the void, and the figure of the leader of the Spirit Realm Power Alliance slowly appeared, with a sinister smile on his face.

"Li'er, be careful!" Jiang Ye shielded Ye Shuli behind him, keeping a wary eye on the leader of the Spirit Realm Power Alliance.

Ye Shuli and Jiang Ye exchanged a glance, their eyes resolute. They knew that a fierce battle was inevitable.

Ye Shuli took a deep breath, channeling her spiritual energy to its maximum, preparing to face the upcoming challenge...

"Wait..." Ye Shuli suddenly raised her hand to stop Jiang Ye's next move. She sensed an unusual aura, as if something was secretly watching them.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ye asked, puzzled.

Ye Shuli didn't answer. Instead, she slowly turned around, her gaze fixed on the shadows in the distance, and whispered, "Come out..."
