168.2 – Nine Lives Cat (I)

“– be careful!”

Xihe's voice has just sounded, when Xue Qilin barely caught a gold afterimage with her eyes, and rapidly jumped to the left. Xihe jumped in the opposite direction, avoiding the oncoming “shooting star”.

The sound of an impact exploded.

Jialan, emitting gold light from head to toe, landed on the place where Xue Qilin has stood previously and radiated a raging shock wave that lifted Xue Qilin and Xihe into the air.

After turning her body in the air and landing with her feet on the ground, Xue Qilin immediately raised her head and looked ahead.

In the cloud of dust, a gold glow depicts the outline of the la.s.s, who is standing up slowly.

“It's this feeling… this exhilaration, this excitement… it's them.”

A trembling voice sounded, as Jialan emerged from the gradually dispersing cloud of dust.

“Thank you… thank you guys.”

Excitement —

The excitement made her pant, made her face flush.

“It's you guys who made me feel this, so thank you… thank you very much!”

The lips of the la.s.s, whose eyes are intoxicated, emitted a moaning voice.

“Ah… ah… but it's not enough… not enough… I want more…”

Then, she smiled.

A strange smile.

“Now, can you give me more?”

She's crazy.

Jialan is already beyond reasoning.

Something slowly climbed up her back, making Xue Qilin tremble involuntarily.

However, deep down in her heart, there is something — an impulse — brewing. She vaguely heard a roaring voice shout something.

“– Qilin!”

Phecda's call made Xue Qilin suddenly snap out of it.

Eyes rippling with crimson color have already drawn near, but there is nothing reflected inside them. The pupils are unusually enlarged, as if they are black holes that can suck in all gazes.

Jialan sent a palm overflowing with light striking towards Xue Qilin's chest.

The majestic true qi rus.h.i.+ng towards her almost made Xue Qilin unable to breath. However, she still reacted and tossed dozens of talismans

As if directed by someone, the talismans, red characters and symbols on a black background, arranged themselves neatly between Xue Qilin and Jialan.

“Barrier, set boundary!”

Xue Qilin snapped her fingers, and the talismans radiated light and formed a barrier of light that blocked the invasion of the “gold”.

Boom –!

As if sounding a copper bell, when the palm hit the barrier, it made a dull sound.

Jialan, who wasn't done yet, clenched her palm, which is pressed against the barrier, into a fist and twisted her wrist violently.

Along with a harsh sound of friction, a spiral of true qi broke through the barrier and drilled into Xue Qilin. She shuddered violently, and blood slowly trickled out from the corners of her mouth.

At the same time, the subtle sound of cracks spreading rapidly rose, followed by the crisp sound of porcelain breaking.

The barrier shattered.

With their power depleted, the talismans turned into ashes.

“Augment lightning with fire — Alkaid!”

Xue Qilin forcibly swallowed the sweet and fishy thing that rushed to her throat and stabbed Empyrean Universe with all her might, and a number of blue-white lightning arcs that appeared out of thin air wrapped around it. The power contained in the domain this time is far greater than in previous instances. This is due to Xihe converting the surrounding spiritual qi of other attributes into fire spiritual qi.

The sword body, with lightning arcs dancing around it, tore the atmosphere apart and stabbed towards Jialan's throat fiercely. Jialan, faced with the lethal blow, didn't evade, allowing it to hit her.

A violent sound of metal striking metal rang.

“What!”

Xue Qilin is appalled.
