We planned to be three people together, but Yun Zhonghe is running off with another woman. Xue'er, why are you so useless!
Mu Jixue: ???
What is she talking about?!
"Ah, um... no... I might... my mind isn't clear yet."
Realizing she had lost her composure, Lin Zhongyu quickly changed her words, but the look in her eyes towards Yun Zhonghe became more complicated.
She had finally managed to adjust her mindset, but suddenly another great beauty appeared, disrupting her state of mind again.
No, no, no, it must just be an accident. Yun is not that kind of person. When he rescued this girl, she must not have been wearing clothes, which is why Yun gave her his.
Lin Zhongyu felt this must be the truth and simultaneously felt ashamed of her earlier terrible fantasies.
How could she distrust Yun Zhonghe like that?
The atmosphere on the scene took a sharp turn from joyful to even a bit awkward. Qin Hongye felt a little embarrassed; she had only said one sentence, how did she ruin the mood?
As for Xiao Hu, who came out later...
"Huh? It feels like there's a good show to watch again. Let's eat some melon!"
He even prepared to take out a bench and iced watermelon from his storage ring.
Don't ask him why he carries these things with him; just say he knows how to live and enjoy life!
As for Yun Zhonghe...
Initially, he didn't think too much about it, but gradually, he felt a sense of unease.
It felt like a death threat! At first, he thought Mu Jixue was angry, but looking over, he found nothing unusual about her. Yun Zhonghe felt strange.
Did he sense it wrong?
He couldn't help but look around, but he didn't find anything. However, the hand unconsciously gripping his sword hilt began to tremble.
This was a Sword Cultivator's instinctual reaction to danger approaching!
"Not good! It's not over yet! There's danger!"
Yun Zhonghe suddenly realized something and exclaimed in alarm.
And just as his voice fell, he suddenly noticed a Black Shadow appearing out of thin air on the rooftop.
The Black Shadow was formed by clusters of black energy, wearing black clothes, a bizarre stone mask on its face, with a ferocious look and flying hair.
The moment the Black Shadow appeared, a massive pressure bore down!
This was... the pressure of a Golden Core Peak!
Everyone had just been immersed in the joy of escaping, completely unprepared for what followed. When the Black Shadow appeared, everyone was completely unable to react, suppressed by the pressure and unable to move.
Mu Jixue was terrified.
Lin Zhongyu's pupils dilated in shock.
Qin Hongye was panicked.
Xiao Hu was dumbfounded.
As for Yun Zhonghe, his scalp tingled even more. Wasn't the mission BOSS supposed to be only an early Golden Core? How could there be a second one, and this second BOSS was even at the half-step Nascent Soul Realm?!
Damn! This plot twist is too outrageous!
The difference in cultivation Realms was too great. Even Huang Aotian was suppressed. After all, the gap was not just one major Realm, but one and a half.
At this moment, everyone felt they were doomed.
Are we going to die here?
Yun Zhonghe couldn't help but think.
Who would have thought the plot could change so suddenly?
Beneath the stone mask, the Black Shadow's blood-red eyes glowed with hatred. It cast a hateful gaze towards Mu Jixue, wishing it could slice her into a thousand pieces.
"You killed my Dao Companion, I will also kill the person you cherish most!"
Through their actions just now, the Black Shadow was very certain that Lin Zhongyu was the person Mu Jixue treasured most.
Chapter 83: One 'Holy Cow' Travels the World
Listening to the Black Shadow's voice, it seemed to be a woman, and she even said that the Spider Woman was her Dao Companion.
There's no end to it, is there? No matter where he goes, it's all Yuri.
Yun Zhonghe was also speechless.
But now was not the time to complain. It was clear that this true BOSS was targeting Mu Jixue. Because Yun Zhonghe had let Mu Jixue take the head of the small BOSS, her hate value was maxed out.
Huang Aotian was in trouble; how could he, his good brother, just stand by and watch!
So Yun Zhonghe immediately mobilized all the spiritual energy in his body to try and break free from the pressure.
Yun Zhonghe had stored so much spiritual energy using the Spiritual Energy Compression Method; this was the time to put it to use.
"Not good... Xiao Yu is in danger!"
Mu Jixue was suppressed so much she couldn't even lift her head. She was panting heavily, barely able to see the Black Shadow standing on the rooftop. At this moment, a visible killing intent was rising from its entire body.
Lin Zhongyu's face was even paler. The scent of death seemed to envelop her entire being, and a strong sense of fear shot straight up to her head.
I'm going to die!
This was her only thought. Her mind instantly went blank, completely losing the ability to think.
The Realm gap was too large. Even if the opponent just casually waved a hand, she would break like a dry branch.
Moreover, she was suppressed by the pressure, unable to even escape.
Am I going to die? I've just started, am I going to fall here...
"No, Xiao Yu... quickly..."
Mu Jixue was burning with anxiety, struggling with all her might, but it was useless.
"Hahaha, that's the expression! Excellent, I will also let you experience this pain!"
The Black Shadow laughed sinisterly, deriving pleasure from Mu Jixue's reaction, and also making it more impatient to kill Lin Zhongyu and see Mu Jixue's response.
In an instant, the blood-red light on the Black Shadow's hand intensified, then transformed into a sharp beam of light that shot towards Lin Zhongyu's brow.
At that moment, Lin Zhongyu only felt a piercing shriek in her ears. She was so scared her heart almost stopped, but at this moment, that tall golden figure rushed over and blocked her path.
Puchi!
The blood-red beam pierced Yun Zhonghe's chest. He was sent flying and then heavily landed not far away.
"Eh?"
Lin Zhongyu was stunned, dumbfounded. Yun Zhonghe's flying figure was imprinted in her eyes, and then she watched Yun Zhonghe fall to the ground, motionless.
"Yun... Yun?"
Lin Zhongyu blinked in confusion, feeling her brain buzz for a moment, and at the same time, something in her heart seemed to shatter.
Yun had taken her place and protected her.
It wasn't just Lin Zhongyu; even Mu Jixue was stunned.
She never would have thought that at the crucial moment, Yun Zhonghe would risk his life to protect them.
Mu Jixue was deeply shocked.
"Ahhh!!! Monster! You hurt my Yun, I will never rest until you are dead!!!"
Boom!
Suddenly, a strong Aura erupted from Lin Zhongyu's body. Because Yun Zhonghe's incident brought her immense shock, Lin Zhongyu's potential was awakened.
Yun Zhonghe had also said that Lin Zhongyu's potential was limitless, but she was usually too gentle. But if she truly got excited and angry, perhaps even Mu Jixue couldn't stop her.
And the current Lin Zhongyu was in a state of extreme rage!
Boom boom boom—!
Golden flames burst forth, soaring into the sky like celestial fire meteors in the large courtyard, as if they could burn the firmament.
Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, the special spiritual fire that can be controlled when the Golden Emperor Sacred Eyes awakens further. This is a spiritual fire evolved from the spiritual energy of the world, capable of causing immense damage only to specific targets.
Golden flames burned fiercely in the courtyard, completely dispelling the enveloping pressure, and even burning along the spiritual energy all the way to the Black Shadow.
"Ahhh! This, this is spiritual fire?!"
The Black Shadow was suddenly enveloped by golden flames, and its entire body's spiritual energy seemed to let out a roaring scream. The intense pain distorted its features beneath the mask.
Pure spiritual fire also has a restraining effect on evil energy.
The Golden Emperor Sacred Eyes ignites spiritual energy through pupil power, and can even start burning from within the body. Furthermore, the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame cannot be dispelled; it will continue to burn until the target is completely incinerated.
The Black Shadow never expected that a mere little girl in the early Foundation Establishment Stage could actually control spiritual fire, and such an extremely unusual spiritual fire at that.
"Monster, I want you dead!"
Lin Zhongyu's mind was already dominated by anger. She rushed forward recklessly, determined to fight the Black Shadow to the death.
"Xiao Yu, no!"
Mu Jixue exclaimed, wanting to call Lin Zhongyu back, but Lin Zhongyu, who was already fueled by emotion, couldn't hear any sound.
She was terrifyingly strong now. The Origin of the Golden Emperor Sacred Eyes temporarily boosted her cultivation to the Golden Core Stage. Coupled with the Black Shadow's strength being greatly reduced due to the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, Lin Zhongyu was actually fighting the true BOSS to a standstill.
Waves of spiritual energy fluctuations spread out, destroying everything in their path. The courtyard collapsed with a crash.
The entire Qingzhu Town was enveloped in a fierce wind.
All of this was the effect of Lin Zhongyu and the Black Shadow's fight.
Lin Zhongyu hadn't learned Spells, so it was all hand-to-hand combat. She punched and struck the Black Shadow, causing it to retreat repeatedly. A punch that missed even left a huge fist print on the ground!
The Black Shadow was horrified, secretly wondering what kind of background this little girl had, to be so terrifying!
Lin Zhongyu was truly going crazy. Yun Zhonghe was her benefactor who had saved her from the abyss, and... she liked Yun Zhonghe!
Yes, Lin Zhongyu was certain. She did have feelings for Yun Zhonghe that went beyond repaying his kindness. She liked Yun Zhonghe, liked the sense of security he brought her, liked his meticulous care, liked how he was clearly warm-hearted but deliberately acted cold and affected.
In short, Yun Zhonghe was the most charismatic person she had ever met; she liked him!
It's easy to imagine how intense the impact was when Yun Zhonghe fell in front of her to protect her.
"Unforgivable! Unforgivable! Unforgivable!"
"I haven't repaid Yun's kindness yet!"
"I haven't revealed my feelings to Yun yet!"
"However, you..."
The golden flames seemed to have clothed Lin Zhongyu in a golden holy armor. At this moment, she was like a Xuan Nu descended to the mortal world, majestic and inviolable.
It's just that her fighting style, which was as rough as Dragon Ball's, was a bit hard to compliment. There wasn't a shred of immortal Aura. After punching the Black Shadow away, she grabbed its ankle and slammed it back and forth on the ground, much like the Hulk beating Loki.
At this moment, the people below were dumbfounded.
"Holy cow! This is Foundation Establishment Stage?"
"Holy cow! This girl is actually so fierce?!"
"Holy cow! Is she perhaps going to solo a half-step Nascent Soul?!"
"Holy cow..."
Exclamations of 'holy cow' rose and fell, all from the Cultivators who had been rescued from the dungeon earlier.
It wasn't that they lacked culture; it was just that the scene was too shocking, and only one phrase, 'holy cow', could express the shock in their hearts.
Chapter 84: Watch Closely, This is How Your Body Should Be Used
Even in the original game, the plot where Lin Zhongyu explodes in rage is rare, and each time it happens, it's based on the condition that you must enter Lin Zhongyu's route for such a development.
But now, the first female lead is exploding for Huang Mao.
"Xiao Yu, you are..."
