Counterattack Against Qianhua Venerable (56k)

Who else could this person be but Qianhua Venerable?

You Su was so frightened that she curled up, actually to cover Little Flower from being seen as she burrowed into the ground.

Qianhua Venerable walked gracefully to You Su's side, a cold, sinister smile on her face. Without any mercy, she kicked You Su to the side and then slapped him with the edge of her hand.

"Is this how you advise me? If you ask me, your senior sister should be the human, and you should be my dog!"

She used tremendous force, whipping You Su until her chest was torn and bleeding.

"Your body is quite resilient; your previous injuries are already showing signs of healing. It's hard to believe there's such a toy that I can enjoy so much!"

After speaking, she waved her jade hand, and the restriction returned to its complete form, preventing even the slightest sound of Wangshu Fairy's cries from escaping.

"To be human, you must understand human happiness. Now... shall we continue?"

The Qianhua Venerable spoke with a questioning tone, but his actions showed no intention of waiting for You Su's permission.

She squatted down and laid out her collection of torture instruments one by one. A dazzling array, everything imaginable.

"Don't be afraid, I have many top-grade pills. Even if I break them... it won't matter."

She patted You Su's face reassuringly, then removed a ring-shaped object. She compared it to the others and said regretfully:

"Even the largest size is too small..."

She casually tossed it aside, then took a jade ring from her delicate, boneless wrist, and said with relief:

"Using this, the effect shouldn't be bad... The night is still long, let's take it step by step, slowly..."

You Su forced herself to be patient, saying, "If you spare my senior sister, I can do things for you."

"You think you can help Bihua Pavilion? You think you're all that?"

Qianhua Venerable spoke with disdain.

"Hiss... Believe me, I'm more valuable than you think."

"Indeed, you are more valuable than I thought."

Qianhua Venerable glanced at You Su with amusement, and in her delight, she slapped her again mercilessly.

"I have many ideas that you've never seen before, which can absolutely guarantee Qianhua Pavilion's well-being for five hundred years."

"Men really don't need to think before they speak big."

"I'm not exaggerating. Take these stockings for example. Even if you and my Bihua Pavilion competed fairly, you couldn't possibly beat us."

"Presumptuous!"

Qianhua Venerable struck again, this time hitting You Su's fresh wound. Even he couldn't help but cry out in pain, but he still held his breath and said:

"Your stockings are too basic. I have at least twenty unique designs for these stockings alone. As the Pavilion Master of the Qianhua Pavilion, you should understand that you can't compete with us in terms of either price or style when it comes to these stockings."

Qianhua Venerable looked at the boy she was stepping on with some surprise. At first, she thought You Su was talking nonsense, but the more she listened, the more surprised she became.

As the head of the pavilion, she naturally possessed an extremely keen intuition for clothing design. She knew very well that You Su weren't just idle talk, but genuinely feasible, and that once realized, they would meet the two fundamental conditions for best-selling products: high repurchase rates and high cost-effectiveness...

Seeing that things seemed to be going well, You Su continued, "Socks are just a single item, but there are many more things that can be paired with them. I've included all of these in the Bihua Pavilion's development plan. Spare my senior sister, and these are all yours."

Upon hearing this, Qianhua Venerable smiled and shook her head. She took out an elephant ring with a chain, gently turned the mechanism to open it, and then placed it on You Su's Adam's apple.

She lifted You Su's head and affectionately ruffled it:

"Silly child, you are truly more interesting than I imagined. But once you submit to me, won't all of this still be mine?"

Her smile was as clear and melodious as a silver bell, and then she held You Su's head, looking expectant as she prepared to close the elephant hoop.

With his limbs restrained and unable to break free, You Su could only desperately try to turn his head.

Qianhua Venerable grabbed You Su's hair and lifted his head up.

"Don't resist. I will help you remove it when you leave here..."

The connecting mechanism of the elephant circle drew closer and closer, and just as it was about to close, a Sword Qi suddenly struck!

Qianhua Venerable's expression changed drastically, and he quickly turned around to use his magic to catch the sword.

The person who flew in wielding a sword was none other than Wangshu!

The sword strike was incredibly sharp, instantly cleaving the protective silk fabric in two. Qianhua Venerable could not hide his astonishment, and he crossed his hands to defend himself, managing to withstand this terrifying sword strike.

Wangshu's eyes regained their brilliance and shone brightly, revealing a resolute expression.

"Where did you get the power to break the seal?"

Qianhua Venerable was as cold as frost, his aura refined and concentrated.

Wangshu ignored everything, holding his sword across his chest, his white hair billowing without wind, his aura surging.

Qianhua Venerable frowned slightly. As Void Glimpse Venerable, she was extremely sensitive to the surrounding Mystic Qi and discovered that the surrounding Mystic Qi was surging into Wangshu's body all at once!

However, there is an insurmountable gap between her and Wangshu, who is at the Feather Transformation Realm. In terms of attraction to Mystic Qi, how could Wangshu possibly compare to her, who is at the Void Glimpse Realm?

"You really are a monster!"

Qianhua Venerable's tone was chilling.

These two words stung the young girl, Wangshu flew over again with her sword, her previous dejected demeanor completely gone.

As the sword's wind swept past, the candlelight in the room went out simultaneously in an instant.

The torn silk was wrapped in Sword Qi in the air and formed a lotus flower pattern. Qianhua Venerable danced and swung his hands, forcefully suppressing the sword.

"Stop!"

Qianhua Venerable shouted, not wanting to have a fierce conflict with Wangshu here. Her residence was on the top floor of the Qianhua Pavilion, overlooking the entire Jinhua City.

However, such a tall building is destined to be fragile. Even with various protective Formation Technique, it cannot withstand the ravages of a Void Realm cultivator. Not only would it damage the Qianhua Pavilion, but it would also attract the attention of cultivators from all walks of life, including ten renowned painters who were resting downstairs.

You Su lay sprawled on the ground and sneered. He knew what this woman was worried about. Although she was fearless, she wouldn't want to completely break things off unless absolutely necessary.

Because once this secret is exposed, it will just be a secret and will bring her no benefit; but if she keeps this secret in her hands, she can use it to control herself and her senior sister and bring them a continuous stream of benefits!

Wangshu ignored her, feeling that the person in front of her was a terrible person who had been bullying her junior brother and needed to be severely punished.

Then the swordplay resumed, and the tightly closed window frames shattered from the aftershocks.

Qianhua Venerable looked anxious. Although she didn't think she would lose to a junior in the Feather Transformation Realm, this place was small and her own lair, which made it inconvenient for her to use her power freely. Meanwhile, her opponent could act like a madman and not care about anything, which was really troublesome.

With a wave of her jade-like hand, her Mystic Qi transformed into a soft, thick blanket, completely enveloping the sharp Sword Qi and preventing it from affecting anything else.

"Wangshu Fairy, calm down! Aren't you afraid I'll reveal the truth to everyone?"

The noble and beautiful woman lowered her voice, appearing somewhat restrained.

You Su watched the standoff between the two, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.

The sudden awakening of her senior sister's power brought a turning point; at least they wouldn't be helpless under the control of Qianhua Venerable.

"I'm not afraid!"

"If you are exposed, many people will want to capture you! Study you! Some might even want to kill you! Not only you, but those around you will also be ostracized by the world! How can you not be afraid!"

Knowing the girl's weakness, Qianhua Venerable continued her strategy of winning her heart.

Little did she know that the girl's resolve was as firm as the sword in her hand, its light subtly shimmering in the darkness.

"I've figured it out! I don't care if you treat me like a human being or not, I am a human being! I want to make up for my mistakes! You are bad people, then I will hide with my junior brothers, sisters, and master! And the Third Elder too!"

Wangshu, sword in hand, spoke with unwavering conviction about the plan she had just devised, "We'll hide together! I can't beat you now, but in the future, none of you will be able to beat me! I won't let you bully them!"

Qianhua Venerable found this amusing. "There are so many cultivators from the Five Continents, where can you hide? Don't be so naive. You can't even beat me, yet you dare to dream of fighting against all the cultivators from the Five Continents?"

"When I secretly ran away from the Xuanxiao Sect before, if I didn't want to be found by the elders, they would never have been able to find me!"

Wangshu rarely gets emotional, but at this moment her heart was pounding, her body was not only warm, but also filled with a continuous surge of passion, which made her momentum rise even higher!

"I'm not lying, don't underestimate me, I'm really amazing!"

Qianhua Venerable initially didn't want to take this somewhat adorable pre-battle declaration seriously, but upon looking at the Rabbit Mask, she realized that the girl before her was actually a monster she had never seen before...

A young girl at the Feather Transformation Realm who had most of her Mystic Qi absorbed by Thousand-Faced Leopard was able to resonate with the profound energy of heaven and Heavenly Dao even more than someone accepted by the Heavenly Mystic Qi...

Moreover, in just a moment, her power was comparable to that of a cultivator at the upper stage of the Feather Transformation Realm! Yet she was only at the peak of the lower stage of the Feather Transformation Realm!

Perhaps this girl... really wasn't lying?

But... can I really control such a monster?

For the first time, this extremely controlling woman began to doubt herself, and a strange sense of regret welled up inside her.

The unwavering gaze in those blue eyes stunned Qianhua Venerable. If this unbelievable monster had truly stood against the cultivators of the Five Continents, then the culprit... wouldn't she be the one?!

Frankly, she hadn't considered such terrible consequences before doing all this. She knew Wangshu was an unknown monster, but she still considered her a girl she could easily control.

Because she was arrogant and despicable.

"Okay, I know you're very capable. Calm down first. Things aren't beyond repair."

Qianhua Venerable soothed the girl's emotions, "I misunderstood you. You are indeed not a monster, but a human being. We can sit down and have a good talk."

You're afraid of me.

Wangshu looked directly into Qianhua Venerable's eyes without flinching.

Qianhua Venerable's eyes narrowed, she took a deep breath, and her snow-white, full breasts swayed gently:

"Yes, I'm afraid of you. We don't need to escalate this to the point of no return. I did do something very wrong. You can ask for any compensation you want. I'm willing to make amends for my mistakes, just like you. From now on, I won't cause any more trouble for your Bihua Pavilion, and you don't need to be Qianhua Pavilion's spokesperson. What do you think?"

She spoke with conviction and sincerity, as if she had already admitted her mistake.

Wangshu held her sword horizontally, her eyes sharpening once more:

"You want to hurt me."

Qianhua Venerable looked astonished. She was extremely adept at concealing her evil intentions, and she absolutely had no intention of harming Wangshu when she said those words. How could Wangshu have detected that?

Little did she know that this time, Wangshu didn't actually sense any malice from her; it was a decision Wangshu made entirely based on her own judgment of the person.

This wicked woman cannot be trusted!

"Qianhua Venerable, you don't know you're wrong, you're just afraid."

You Su, lying on the ground, suddenly spoke, laughing wildly.

Seeing her junior brother's miserable state, Wangshu became even more convinced of her opinion.

A ferocious look suddenly appeared on Qianhua Venerable's cold and beautiful face. She understood very well that it was better to continue trying to control the girl than to condescend to make peace!

Compared to the future, now is the best time to control her! Imagine having a monster with the power to destroy the world at her beck and call—she felt her ambition burning brightly!

In that instant, she suddenly hardened her heart and unleashed her full power.

The vase on the table vibrated at a very low frequency, and the small toys on the floor collided together, making a crisp sound.

Wangshu was on high alert, her sword intent constantly building, while You Su was not so lucky, curled up on the ground in agony.

Wangshu about his junior brother, so he prepared to immediately draw his sword to break Qianhua Venerable's momentum. However, You Su was lifted up by a ribbon and was instantly captured by Qianhua Venerable by the throat.

"Put down your sword!"

Wangshu's movements indeed faltered, and he hesitated, raising his sword without a clear direction.

"If you don't want your junior brother to die, put down your sword!" Qianhua Venerable continued to issue orders.

She saw things very clearly; You Su was the girl's Achilles' heel, and only by controlling You Su could she control Wangshu.

With her limbs bound, You Su couldn't even kick her legs, and with her throat choked, she couldn't speak; she could only stare wide-eyed and sob.

Wangshu were sore from the exertion that her knuckles protruded. She suddenly flung the sword, and it slammed firmly into the floor.

"Put down my junior brother!"

Qianhua Venerable laughed again, "Wangshu Fairy, don't be so naive."

"You!" Wangshu made a move to draw her sword.

Qianhua Venerable then turned to You Su, lifting him even higher and gripping him even tighter:

"Don't move! You can't escape my grasp... If I've set my sights on a pet, then it has to be mine!"

You Su resisted even more fiercely, and Wangshu dared not make any more rash moves. "Stop pinching my junior brother!"

The girl's bright eyes dimmed slightly again. She really wanted to ask the Third Elder, "Isn't it said that evil spirits are more powerful than humans? Why do I feel that humans are more difficult to deal with than evil spirits?"

Qianhua Venerable loosened his grip slightly and looked at You Su with an arrogant expression:

"Since you seem so eager to talk, I'll let you."

You Su gasped for breath, finally catching his breath. Because he was being held up, his gaze was looking down at Qianhua Venerable, and he felt a strange sense of pity.

"Speak quickly!" Qianhua Venerable was somewhat annoyed by You Su's unyielding attitude. "When a wild dog cannot be tamed into a domestic dog, it loses its value. I hope you understand this!"

"Qianhua Venerable, your black and gold cheongsam is very beautiful. What material is it made of?"

You Su grinned and asked this nonsensical question.

Qianhua Venerable was taken aback and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

But as soon as she asked the question, she suddenly realized something was wrong!

Isn't You Su blind? How could she possibly tell that she was wearing a cheongsam, and even accurately describe its color?!

She looked again and was surprised to find that You Su's eyes blended into the night, completely black!

And within this darkness, a faint green light flickered, like the lamps lit beside the hellish ramp!

In the instant she was shocked and her mouth was slightly open, she suddenly felt her mouth being stretched wide!

She quickly released You Su, grabbed the thick object stuffed into her throat, and yanked it out—it was a slippery, white snake!

She didn't recognize the creature, but she knew it was definitely related to the fake blind man!

She immediately tried to strangle the little snake, but its body suddenly grew larger, forcibly breaking free from Qianhua Venerable's control.

Looking at the enormous sand worm with its ferocious mouthparts, Qianhua Venerable could hardly hide her shock. Just how many more trump cards did these two people have that she hadn't yet seen?

Qianhua Venerable spat out a mouthful of saliva, expelling the remaining slime from the little snake. Several binding straps flew out from behind her, tightly binding Little Flower's head.

Suddenly, she noticed a lingering, wonderful fragrance in her mouth, and with her extensive knowledge, she immediately recognized its source:

"This beast is spewing Dragon Saliva? You're not planning to use it to Dragon Saliva me out, let this thing burrow into my body, grow bigger, and burst me apart, are you?"

You Su collapsed to the ground, her expression finally filled with panic.

Seeing You Su's scheme exposed, Qianhua Venerable couldn't help but smile smugly, when suddenly he felt a metallic taste in his throat.

Did I vomit blood?

"Senior sister! Kill her!" You Su suddenly shouted.

Wangshu obeyed the command instantly, drew her sword, and moved it in a semi-circle, as if she wanted to cleave Qianhua Venerable in two with a single strike.

Seeing the girl's reckless stance, Qianhua Venerable had no choice but to take the sword head-on. He absolutely could not let the sword land, otherwise it would surely shatter the building and break the pillars, and then all her Formation Technique and shock-absorbing Formation Technique would be rendered useless!

If things completely fall out, it won't do her any good!

She once again used the technique of transforming Qi into a shield, forcefully absorbing the energy from the sword, and then used the ribbon to lift You Su up again, shouting:

"Are you really going to destroy everything in this world?!"

Wangshu was forced to stop wielding her sword.

"Throw the sword over here!"

The Qianhua Venerable was annoyed by the repeated resistance from these two playthings in her eyes, and finally stopped pretending to be elegant.

Seeing You Su's pained face Wangshu had no choice but to do as she was told, "Quickly let go of Junior Brother! He's in a lot of pain!"

Qianhua Venerable glanced at You Su, whose veins were bulging, snorted coldly, and ruthlessly threw him to the floor.

You Su suddenly coughed violently, but still managed to call out intermittently, "Qianhua... Venerable One..."

Qianhua Venerable glared angrily, "I advise you not to provoke me again!"

You Su smiled faintly and murmured:

"Qianhua... Venerable One... you wouldn't want others to know that the Pavilion Master Qianhua Pavilion is an evil spirit, would you?"

"You're so incredibly stubborn!"

Qianhua Venerable gritted his teeth, his chest heaving violently.

But the next moment she stopped breathing, stunned.

I was clearly going to punish his disrespect with the ribbon... why isn't the ribbon obeying my commands?

Looking at her bewildered expression, You Su suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard that her whole body trembled.

Qianhua Venerable refused to believe in superstition and manipulated the silk to roll towards Wangshu again, but this time the silk returned to its state of obeying her commands.

"Stop! Don't touch my senior sister!"

At a single command, the silk ribbons suspended in mid-air came to an abrupt halt, leaving Qianhua Venerable staring in disbelief.

She entered the Dao through clothing; all these fabrics revered her, so how could they obey You Su's commands?

"The Study of Demonic Familiars records three rules: First, the followers unconditionally obey the master's commands; second, the followers cannot harbor any intention to harm the master; third, once the relationship is established, the followers cannot voluntarily break away unless the master dies."

You Su spoke to himself, but to Qianhua Venerable, it sounded like sacred chanting.

"You... are an evil spirit!"

Qianhua Venerable stared in disbelief at the weakened boy; she finally understood everything he had done.

He wasn't completely blind at all; he could see! He deliberately revealed this information to attract my attention, then forced me to pause for a moment with those eyes!

The little snake and the Dragon Saliva were just a smokescreen! The faint, sweet, metallic taste in her throat was You Su's real trump card! And the moment she noticed something amiss, he ordered Wangshu to attack at all costs to draw her attention!

That wasn't her own blood, but the blood of You Su that the little snake had spat in!

Little did she know that this was the very blood that You Su had gnawed at his heart when he crouched down inside the door, leaving Little Flower to gnaw at it!

"You're an evil spirit too."

You Su blinked her eyes and smiled brightly.

"By the way, you can't call me 'you' anymore, you have to call me..."

"Owner."
