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

"Things are probably not that simple..." Before Ye Shuli could finish speaking, Sect Leader Zhou suddenly stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes flashed with a sinister light.

"Men, charge! Spread out and wear them down!"

Upon hearing the sound, the surrounding cultivators sprang into action, scattering like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey, forming a huge encirclement that surrounded Jiang Ye and Ye Shuli.

A sense of danger permeated the air, like an invisible net that trapped the two of them.

Jiang Ye's eyes sharpened. He shielded Ye Shuli behind him and cautiously looked around.

He could sense that this attack was more dangerous than before; these guys really wanted to kill them!

"Hmph, overestimating yourself!" Sect Leader Zhou sneered, waving his hand, "Follow me and charge! I'm going to have this kid's divine weapon!" With that, he personally led several experts and charged aggressively toward Ye Shuli.

"Want to mess with my Sister Li? Ask me first if I'll allow it!" Jiang Ye smirked.

"You're courting death!" Sect Leader Zhou roared, slashing a palm at Jiang Ye.

The palm strike was fierce, accompanied by a whistling sound, as if it would tear Jiang Ye to pieces.

Jiang Ye dared not be careless, and quickly circulated his spiritual power, striking out with both palms to meet the attack.

With a loud "bang," the two forces collided, stirring up a gust of wind that made the surrounding trees sway precariously.

Jiang Ye felt a powerful force surge through him, which made his arm go numb and caused him to involuntarily take a few steps back.

"Is this all you've got? You dare to block me?" Jiang Ye gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, and engaged in a fierce battle with Sect Leader Zhou.

"Sister Li, be careful!" Jiang Ye reminded Ye Shuli while fending off Master Zhou's attacks.

Ye Shuli smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I'm not some weak woman who can't even kill a chicken." As she spoke, a flash of light appeared in her hand, and a peculiar magical artifact appeared in her hand.

"The good show has just begun..."

Headmaster Zhou's moves were ruthless, his palm strikes sharp as knives. Although Jiang Ye fought desperately, the difference in strength was ultimately too great.

After only a few moves, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and vomited a mouthful of blood.

"Sister Li, watch out!" he roared, staggering backward.

Ye Shuli frowned, her magical artifact flashing in her hand. She was about to lend a helping hand when she was surrounded by the cultivators around her.

Although these guys were not as strong as Sect Leader Zhou, they had the advantage of numbers, and for a time, Ye Shuli found it difficult to escape.

"Jiang Ye, you can't escape today!" Sect Leader Zhou sneered and lunged forward again, his palm strikes raining down on Jiang Ye like a storm.

Jiang Ye mustered his strength and barely managed to hold on, but the wounds on his body multiplied, and his clothes were stained with blood, a shocking sight.

"Damn it! This old guy is really persistent!" Jiang Ye cursed inwardly. He felt his spiritual power being rapidly depleted, and if this continued, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.

The surrounding cultivators became increasingly arrogant, launching wave after wave of attacks that surged like a tide, making it difficult for Jiang Ye to breathe.

He felt like a small boat on a vast ocean, which could be swallowed up by giant waves at any moment.

"Am I really going to die here today?" A sense of despair welled up in Jiang Ye's heart.

Just then, he suddenly felt a bright light before his eyes, and a dazzling light burst forth from Ye Shuli's direction, instantly enveloping the entire battlefield.

"This is..." Jiang Ye's eyes widened as he saw a huge, semi-transparent light shield enveloping him and Ye Shuli. When Sect Leader Zhou's attack landed on the light shield, it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, without causing a ripple.

"Holy crap! Sister Li, what kind of amazing move is this?!" Jiang Ye exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the unbelievable scene before him.

Ye Shuli smiled slightly, "It's nothing, this is a hidden function of the artifact, how about it, isn't it amazing?"

Sect Leader Zhou and the others were also stunned. They never expected that Ye Shuli would have such a trump card.

"This...how is this possible?!" Sect Leader Zhou stared incredulously at the protective shield in front of him, his face turning ashen.

"Hmph, now you know fear, huh?" Jiang Ye raised an eyebrow at Sect Leader Zhou triumphantly, his earlier dejection completely gone.

However, the moment the two relaxed their guard, a dark figure silently appeared on the side of the light barrier, a pair of cold eyes staring intently at the barrier, a strange smile curving at the corner of its mouth...

“Heh, interesting…” a hoarse voice came from the shadowy figure.

The appearance of the dark figure was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

Feng Ying, a ghost-like figure, moved with lightning speed. He gathered all his spiritual power and slammed a punch into the protective shield.

With a muffled thud, the light shield trembled violently, rippling outwards.

Jiang Ye was shocked to see this; the black figure was incredibly powerful!

Without hesitation, he gathered his spiritual power, and a sharp sword aura shot straight towards Feng Ying.

"Well done!" Feng Ying's lips curled up, and his figure flashed strangely, dodging the sword energy while simultaneously grabbing at the light barrier with his claw.

The claw-like wind was fierce, accompanied by a piercing whistling sound, as if the air itself was being torn apart.

"Wow, that speed, is he cheating?!" Jiang Ye exclaimed, his attacks becoming even more ferocious.

He and Feng Ying engaged in a fierce battle both inside and outside the light barrier.

Sword energy crisscrossed, claw shadows danced, the two exchanged blows, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.

The surrounding cultivators were also stunned by this sudden turn of events.

They all used their best skills to search for weaknesses in the light barrier, attempting to break through and join the battle.

Various spiritual attacks rained down on the light barrier, making loud, deafening noises.

However, just when everyone thought the battle would remain deadlocked, Ye Shuli's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mysterious smile.

She suddenly removed the protective shield, and in a flash, she rushed straight towards Sect Leader Zhou!

"She's courting death!" Upon seeing this, Sect Leader Zhou was not alarmed but rather delighted. Had this woman gone mad?

He was worried about how to break through the light barrier when this woman unexpectedly delivered herself to his doorstep!

He gathered all his spiritual power and struck out with his palm, determined to kill Ye Shuli with one blow!

Just as his palm strike was about to touch Ye Shuli, the magical artifact in Ye Shuli's hand shone brightly once again.

A dazzling beam of light instantly enveloped Sect Leader Zhou.

"What?!" Sect Leader Zhou exclaimed in surprise. He felt as if his body was bound by an invisible force, and he was unable to move!

He roared and struggled desperately, but it was as if he were stuck in a quagmire, to no avail.

"This...this is impossible!" Sect Leader Zhou

Ye Shuli looked at the trapped Sect Leader Zhou and a sly smile appeared on her face.

“Now, it’s our turn to fight back…” Her voice was clear and firm.

Jiang Ye looked at Ye Shuli, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said, "Sister Li, you really are a little devil..."

Ye Shuli's lips curled into a smile, and the light from the magic weapon in her hand intensified. Beams of light shot out like serpents, knocking down the surrounding cultivators one by one.

"Jiang Ye, let's go!"

"Alright, Sister Li!" Jiang Ye couldn't wait any longer. He flashed into the crowd like a cheetah, using both fists and feet, each move deadly.

Those cultivators were already suppressed by Ye Shuli's magic weapon, so they were no match for Jiang Ye. They were beaten so badly that they cried out for their parents and ran away in fear.

"Ouch, my old waist!"

"Run! Those two are monsters!"

"My God, what kind of place is this?!"

Watching the cultivators scatter and flee, Jiang Ye shouted excitedly, "Sister Li, we won! Wuhu, take off!" He was as happy as a child, jumping up and down, wishing he could hug Ye Shuli and spin her around a few times.

However, just as the two were immersed in the joy of victory, something strange happened.

The trapped Sect Leader Zhou suddenly roared, his spiritual power surged, and a powerful force erupted from his body, shattering Ye Shuli's magic weapon.

"What's going on?!" Ye Shuli's expression changed. She never expected that Sect Leader Zhou would be able to break free from the divine artifact's restraints.

Sect Leader Zhou's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Ye Shuli like a wild beast. His voice was hoarse and filled with murderous intent: "Little girl, how dare you play tricks on me! I'll kill you!"

Ye Shuli's heart sank. She sensed an unprecedented aura of danger. Headmaster Zhou looked like he was about to fight to the death.

She didn't know what even more ruthless methods he would use next, but she knew that an even fiercer battle was about to begin...

"Sister Li, be careful!" Jiang Ye also sensed the danger. He stood in front of Ye Shuli, watching Zhou Zhangmen warily, his hand gripping his weapon tightly.

A sinister smile curled at the corner of Sect Leader Zhou's lips as he slowly raised his right hand. A powerful spiritual energy condensed in his palm, causing the surrounding air to distort and deform...

"Heh, you think this is the end?" Sect Leader Zhou's voice was low and hoarse, like the whisper of a demon from hell. "The show has only just begun..." He suddenly opened his eyes, a blood-red light flashing in them. "Come out, all of you!"
