Slaying Yang Sha: Two Jiazi of Inner Strength

"As if I'd believe you," Lin Xiao scoffed.

Lin Xiao pouted. If she hadn't transferred all her cultivation to him, he wouldn't have believed her even if she'd offered herself.

But he had to admit his luck was incredible. Through a twist of fate, not only did a beauty throw herself at him, but she also brought along a full sixty years of pure internal energy. Now, his internal energy alone was on par with any first-rate martial artist in the jianghu, even if his actual martial arts skills lagged behind.

But those weren't problems. With his attribute point ability, once he gathered enough Potential Points to raise the Three Saber Techniques to the Great Accomplishment level, it would be barely enough. He could figure out how to get more powerful martial arts later.

Just then, Yang Sha's energetic, urgent shouts echoed from outside again. Yin Sha urged him, "Get dressed and be ready."

He quickly got up to help her with her tattered skirt and then dressed himself. As he pulled up his pants, he saw his limp, blood-stained member hanging between his legs and couldn't help but chuckle, "People say beautiful girls have good luck, but actually, guys with big... well, they have good luck too."

He looked up and saw the large mass exposed at her chest again, so he quickly pulled it down to cover her. She covered her mouth and giggled.

"What a little vixen!"

Lin Xiao felt a heat rise within him, recalling the delightful taste of moments ago. He wished he could experience it again.

After a quick tidy-up, following Yin Sha's instructions, he hid on a roof beam near the door, close to the entrance. She sat below, perfectly positioned in the doorway's blind spot. Then, as she instructed, he began circulating the Yin Sha Scripture to attract Yang Sha.

The dual cultivation with Yin Sha had transferred more than just cultivation; a new internal energy technique called the Yin Sha Scripture had appeared on his status panel. It was a two-star, mid-grade technique with nine levels.

The sixty years of Yin Sha Scripture cultivation were Yin Sha Maiden's hard-earned power over many years, placing her at the seventh level of the Yin Sha Scripture, just two levels away from Great Accomplishment.

In fact, Yin Sha Maiden's Yin Sha Scripture had actually reached the eighth level. To cultivate this technique to near Great Accomplishment at such a young age truly showcased her exceptional talent. However, she was severely injured now, and her cultivation had decreased, so she had only transferred the seventh level to him.

Less than two seconds after circulating the Yin Sha Scripture, Lin Xiao sensed an intensely hot aura rapidly approaching. Yang Sha had arrived.

Having been taught the Yin Sha Scripture by Yin Sha, Lin Xiao knew that Yang Sha was currently in an explosive state. In this state, his power surged, making him unstoppable by the Great River Gang's experts. However, he would also suffer from the torment of Yang Sha's fire and needed to absorb Yin Sha's cultivation to quell it.

Before long, Lin Xiao felt a furnace-like heat appear outside the house and rush in. He only saw a blur before his eyes and then saw Yang Sha, with his hair and beard completely white, charging in.

This supreme expert was covered in wounds, yet his spirit was still full of vigor. His appearance was completely different from the frail old man he had seen playing the erhu earlier. His upper body clothing was gone, revealing crimson muscles and skin. A wave of heat washed over him; this was a side effect of the Yang Sha Scripture's explosion. If it wasn't extinguished, his skin would become increasingly red and hot, eventually leading to self-immolation.

He seemed to be burning quite severely. Seeing Yin Sha, he extended his hand and roared, "Give me your cultivation!"

But the next second, he froze and cursed, "Bitch, where's your cultivation?"

Yin Sha Maiden quickly reached out and grabbed Yang Sha's arm. He immediately stiffened, and the red skin on his grabbed arm began to recede. She was using her remaining cultivation to distract him, her gaze fixed on the roof beam above.

Lin Xiao understood. Gripping his saber, he leaped down silently. The full sixty years of pure internal energy erupted, channeled entirely into his steel saber as he swung it towards Yang Sha's nape.

But Yang Sha's cultivation was too high at this moment. Even with Yin Sha distracting him, he sensed the sneak attack and violently looked up, swatting with a palm wreathed in heat.

Bang!

A ring of air exploded, blasting a huge hole in the wooden wall. Lin Xiao, like a broken sack, was sent flying through the roof, over ten meters away. Blood gushed from his mouth like a spring. With a heavy thud, he crashed to the ground, his steel saber gone.

"I'll kill you!"

Yang Sha roared in fury. A long-handled saber was embedded in the back of his head, its blade sunk into his muscle but not through it. He was enraged, his Yang Sha cultivation, at least twice as potent as Lin Xiao's, erupting as he swatted at the falling Lin Xiao.

Just then, Yin Sha Maiden gritted her teeth and punched Yang Sha in the crotch, causing him to falter. The surging internal energy went awry, and his palm strike missed. Lin Xiao, falling from the sky, seized the opportunity and punched down, his fist grazing Yang Sha's nape, striking the steel saber embedded in his muscle. The sixty years of pure internal energy exploded, driving the blade deeper in one blow.

Yang Sha shuddered violently, his body stiffening. He slowly turned his head, his eyes wide with rage, spat out "Bitch," and with a crisp crack, his neck snapped and drooped, causing him to kneel heavily on the ground.

"Hoo!"

He exhaled heavily, only to see Yin Sha Maiden leap up and strike Yang Sha's chest with a palm. She was actually siphoning his residual cultivation.

Lin Xiao's eyes flashed. He also raised his hand, striking Yang Sha's vital point on his back and circulating his cultivation technique. Instantly, a scorching internal energy surged towards him like a tide. The previously Yin-elemental internal energy in his body combined with the Yang-elemental internal energy, merging into one.

Yin Sha Maiden raised an eyelid, glanced at him, but said nothing. She merely reminded him, "Hurry. The previous fight must have attracted the Great River Gang's attention. We need to move."

Together, they rapidly absorbed and siphoned all of Yang Sha's cultivation. Yin Sha Maiden's cultivation had recovered to its previous state, while Lin Xiao had absorbed an additional sixty years of cultivation, equivalent to his own Yin-elemental internal energy. Combined, his cultivation had instantly reached a full one hundred and twenty years, equivalent to the mixed cultivation of the Yin Yang Twin Evils.

"Damn it, am I the legendary protagonist?"

He had encountered such a miraculous event, straight out of a novel, and even got a beautiful maiden along with it.

After they had drained all his cultivation, Yang Sha had become a gaunt old man. Yin Sha looked at him with a complex expression and extended her delicate hand, saying, "Take me with you."

Dense footsteps could already be heard in the distance. The searching Great River Gang members, having heard the commotion of their fight, were rushing over.

Lin Xiao naturally reached out and took her small hand. As they walked, he suddenly stopped and said, "Wait for me."

He retrieved the saber from Yang Sha's nape, decapitated him with a swift stroke, wrapped the head in cloth, and looted everything from Yang Sha's body. He then took her hand again and soared into the air.

Not long after, a group of people burst through the door. They were stunned to see the headless corpse on the ground. After searching the entire hut, the leader looked bewildered. "They haven't been gone long. Pursue them!"

A short while later, Su Youyu and Zhuang Jing arrived. They examined the corpse on the ground. Su Youyu said with a grave expression, "It's Yang Sha, alright. All his cultivation is gone."
