Ye Qiu felt his Qi and Blood, perhaps a little more than 180,000.

But he wasn't proud.

After all, he had been baptized by Brother Snake, and before that, he had received a surge of energy.

During these three days of bathing, that energy had been refining, combined with the medicinal bath, and fully absorbed by his Great Dragon Breath Technique, which was why he had reached this point.

"Brother Ye, you're so terrifying now. Do you have the strength to fight someone in the Gathering Law realm?" Wu Xiaokai asked.

Ye Qiu thought for a moment and said, "Half-step Gathering Law, I should be able to kill them."

His Qi and Blood had surged, and his Cultivation had broken through to Tongxuan fifth level. Moreover, after this near-death experience, his Fist Technique, Saber techniques, and even his movement techniques had greatly improved.

If, he were to encounter someone like Ye Yi again, he wouldn't have to fight so desperately. He should be able to kill him directly!

He wondered if he could spar with Lu Li.

Wu Xiaokai smiled, "I've also made significant progress... How about we go into the mountains again?"

He was still thinking about that Law realm Demon Beast. Based on his experience, there were definitely treasures in that cave dwelling!

Ye Qiu shook his head, "The situation is too tense right now. Let's wait a while longer."

Wu Xiaokai nodded, "Alright."

"By the way, there are eight Demon Beast Spirits in total. Half for each of us."

Wu Xiaokai took out four Demon Beast Spirits.

Ye Qiu didn't stand on ceremony. He took the Demon Beast Spirits and threw them directly to Brother Snake.

Brother Snake was even weaker now.

His spirit was not good.

Brother Snake needed a big tonic.

Who knew when he might need Brother Snake to exhale some energy again.

The two of them walked out of the courtyard. As soon as they opened the door, they saw the young girl in a white dress standing outside.

Lu Li!

She always wore a white dress. At least, in all the days Ye Qiu had been here, he hadn't seen her wear any other color.

But, at this moment, her expression was not very good.

Ye Qiu stared at her.

Lu Li said, "Follow me."

"What for?"

Lu Li said, "Revenge!"

After speaking, she turned and left.

Ye Qiu wanted to say something, but Lu Li had already walked far away. Ye Qiu paused for a moment and quickly followed.

Wu Xiaokai followed as well.

They walked deeper into the Academy and soon arrived at a huge training ground.

There were many people on the training ground, but as Lu Li arrived, the training ground immediately fell silent.

Wherever a woman went, she was the center of attention.

But this time, they felt a chilling killing intent.

Under this pervasive killing intent, the expressions of the two men on the training ground immediately changed drastically, and they turned to run.

Swish--

However, as soon as the two turned, a sword light flashed, the white dress disappeared, and she reappeared in front of the two men.

Sword Control Technique!

Before, Lu Li had used the Sword Control Technique, and she had even flown up.

Lu Li had not yet reached the Gathering Law realm, but with the Sword Control Technique, she could already fly like someone in the Gathering Law realm.

"Lu, Senior Sister Lu..." The two men looked at Lu Li, their bodies trembling, cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads.

Swish--

However, before their voices had even fallen, a sword had already landed at the throat of one of the men.

Following that, with a pu sound, the sword pierced straight through, and the man's eyeballs widened in disbelief.

Lu Li's expression was blank. She pulled out her sword and looked at the second man, who immediately trembled, "Senior Sister, this, this has nothing to do with me. I was just following orders..."

Pu--

Before his voice had even finished, Lu Li's sword swept past, and the man stiffened on the spot.

Then, his head, along with a gush of blood, flew off.

The entire training ground fell silent, everyone rapidly backing away, faces filled with shock as they stared at Lu Li.

Lu Li retracted her sword, turned, and looked towards the gathered crowd. "Go to the Law Enforcement Hall and inform the Grand Law Enforcer. Tell them Lu Li is killing people!"

The Academy's laws were strict; killing was forbidden outside the Life and Death Stage!

However, Lu Li didn't care at all at this moment.

She dropped a few words and walked up to Ye Qiu. "Continue!"

After speaking, she turned and walked towards the left. Ye Qiu stared at the woman, his gaze looking somewhat complicated.

Wu Xiaokai was also stunned, then exclaimed excitedly, "Brother Ye, your wife is awesome!"

Ye Qiu's mouth twitched.

"Quick, let's follow her." Wu Xiaokai grabbed Ye Qiu and quickly followed Lu Li, who was walking ahead.

After they left, the training ground erupted into chaos, and soon, several disciples rushed towards the Law Enforcement Hall.

By the time they arrived, Lu Li had already reached a residential area and stood outside a courtyard.

BANG--

She didn't move, but a surge of energy erupted, and the courtyard gate, along with the surrounding wall, was directly blown apart.

A commotion arose from inside the house. The next moment, a man rushed out, and upon seeing Lu Li, his expression changed drastically.

As his expression shifted, the sword in Lu Li's hand had already flown out, directly piercing his brow.

The man trembled. "Senior Sister Lu, I, I..."

Pfft--

The sword vibrated and directly pierced his brow. This disciple, who had ambushed Ye Qiu, died instantly.

Flying Sword Technique!

Lu Li's eyes flashed. The cyan longsword flew back into her hand, and she turned to walk right.

After walking over a thousand meters, the second person rushed out of a courtyard. Before he could speak, his head flew off.

This scene shocked many, terrified many, and no one dared to look directly at Lu Li.

The young woman continued on her path, killing as she went, taking down a total of six people!

All of them were disciples who had participated in the ambush.

One of them was even killed inside the Pill Hall, while the disciple was in the process of refining pills.

Alchemists held an extraordinary status, and they were extremely rare.
