Chapter 125: A Short Rest
“Ah, this…”
Su Yan was at a loss for words. He had gotten carried away and had forgotten about this.
Senior Sister Xiao Wu’s warning was right. This kind of thing could only be done occasionally. If the opponent was cautious and didn’t mind giving a few more finishing blows, then it would truly be a case of trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice.
“I understand.”
Su Yan nodded and said, dispelling the thought of playing dead.
But even if he couldn’t play dead and launch a sneak attack, the effect of Water Transformation was still very great. As long as it wasn’t an energy attack like a technique, Water Transformation could be immune to it. So before it was exposed, this was a very good trump card.
Just think, to be stabbed in a vital point by an enemy’s sword, the opponent would surely subconsciously relax, thinking they had won. Who would have thought that he would be safe and sound? It would be very easy to counter-kill the enemy.
“This secret technique is so powerful.”
Xiao Wu watched Su Yan’s battle and the outstanding results he had achieved, and she couldn’t help but nod.
The more Su Yan used it, the more powerful he felt the Water Transformation technique was. Not only could it be immune to physical attacks, but it could also harass the enemy.
“Summoning a water phantom to assist in battle… although its attack power is not great, because it’s formed from an element, it’s very difficult to kill.”
This secret technique rewarded by the system was a bit like a beast’s innate divine ability. The spiritual energy required to summon a water element was not much, and it could be used almost continuously.
“The battle seems to have become easier.”
Su Yan said in his heart. He felt that he had underestimated himself a little before.
Although he was at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, he already had the strength of a late-Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. He might even be able to take on a Golden Core cultivator.
“Don’t get too carried away. This is only because others haven’t seen your secret technique and were caught off guard.”
Xiao Wu poured cold water on him from the side, wanting him not to get arrogant and become a pufferfish that would swell up at the slightest poke.
“Mm, I know.”
Su Yan nodded, but it was unknown if he had really listened.
And so, the first day of battle ended. Su Yan and Xiao Wu returned to the city safely and met up with Ling Ling and the others.
“What’s wrong with you, Junior Sister? Are you injured!”
The moment the few of them met, Su Yan said with concern.
Lin Qingyue’s face was pale, and she was drenched in sweat, as if she had just gone through a strenuous exercise.
“I’m fine. I just encountered an enemy with Senior Sister just now and went through a great battle.”
As Lin Qingyue slowly recounted, Su Yan gradually understood the truth. When he heard that the two of them had joined forces to fight the enemy, the surprised expression on his face was almost uncontrollable.
“You and Third Senior Sister joined forces…?”
He looked at Ling Ling, then at Lin Qingyue. It wasn’t that Su Yan didn’t believe it, but that the two of them usually had such a bad relationship, to the point where it was not hidden at all.
“I told you before, Junior Sister is just stubborn but soft-hearted. You still don’t believe me!”
Xiao Wu walked over and teased.
“Senior Sister!”
Ling Ling’s face turned red. What stubborn but soft-hearted? She was not a tsundere. She had just helped out a little.
“Alright, let’s not stand here. We’ve been busy all day, and everyone is tired. Let’s go back and rest early.”
Hearing Su Yan’s words, the few of them nodded.
On the first day of arriving at the Joyful Union Sect’s battlefield, besides Xiao Wu, the other three had all gained a lot.
That night, after a simple wash-up, the four of them gathered again. They hadn’t eaten all day. Su Yan went into the kitchen again and made a full table of dishes.
“Everyone, eat while it’s hot.”
Su Yan said with a smile.
“Then I won’t be polite.”
Ling Ling picked up her chopsticks and ate until her mouth was full of oil.
Su Yan also started eating. The dinner was very happy.
In the next few days, Su Yan gradually got used to this place and felt that fighting was just that. But one thing shattered his naive thoughts.
As the saying goes, if you walk the night road too often, you will eventually meet a ghost. There were many experts on this battlefield, and with Su Yan’s looks, it was easy to attract attention.
“To let such a beauty go to the battlefield is truly a waste of a natural treasure. Why don’t you come with me? Big Sister will love you well.”
A woman in a black dress said with a lewd smile. She looked unremarkable, but from her aura, she was actually a Nascent Soul expert.
Su Yan secretly cried out in his heart. He immediately turned to run, but before he could take a step, the woman in the black dress had already appeared in front of him.
“How can she be so fast!?”
One second the woman was in the distance, and now she was right beside him. Such a terrifying moving speed… his eyes couldn’t even react.
Can’t escape! The gap is too big!
The moment he realized this result, Su Yan gave up resisting in his heart. But he did not feel desperate, because his senior sister was also here.
“Not running anymore? Given up? A wise choice.”
The woman in the black dress giggled lewdly and reached out her hand, wanting to caress his cheek.
However, at this moment, a ghostly figure appeared and kicked her in the lower abdomen.
“Oof!”
The woman in the black dress didn’t react at all. Her two eyeballs bulged to the extreme, and her body arched like a shrimp.
Xiao Wu pressed her advantage. The woman in the black dress was stunned. She was hit in the chest with dozens of punches in a row.
“Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump!”
The woman in the black dress was beaten until her eyes rolled back, and she couldn’t tell which way was up.
“Get lost!”
Xiao Wu finally used her left foot as a pivot, spun around, and kicked the woman hard in the face.
Whoosh!
The whole person was sent flying. The woman in the black dress’s body flew out like a broken rag doll, rolling countless times on the ground, and collapsed to the ground in an extremely pathetic posture.
She shook her head dazedly, the world spinning in her vision.
Who am I? Where am I? What happened?
Before she could react, her divine sense suddenly warned her. Something was coming, something that could threaten her life.
The woman in the black dress was suddenly startled awake, and cold sweat instantly flowed out. Her body quickly flashed.
“Boom!”
A terrifying explosion occurred. The place where she had been standing just now had now been blown to pieces. Dozens of meters of the ground had completely disappeared, turning into a deep pit.
“So it was you who sneak-attacked me!”
The woman in the black dress saw the person clearly, a murderous expression on her face. Not only had she interrupted her good time, but she had also beaten her up. This hatred could only be repaid with death!
Su Yan knew that Xiao Wu was by his side and that she would make a move. But he had not expected her to use such a violent method.
“You’re so ruthless, Senior Sister! You actually attacked her vital points! It looks like they’re all swollen.”
Su Yan noticed that the woman in the black dress’s size was not large just now, but now it was a whole circle bigger, and even a little deformed. Just thinking about it was pitiful.
“Hurry up and hide, Junior Brother! I’ll deal with this!”
Xiao Wu did not have Su Yan’s relaxed mood. At this moment, her face and her heart were both heavy.
Because of the element of surprise, she had gained the upper hand. But even if the woman was injured, and with all her treasures and secret techniques, the next battle would not be easy.
