Big Sister? Exposed

"Huh?"

"If one day lots of people wanted to kill me, and you couldn't beat them, what would you do?"

Tang Qingye's eyes were slightly red.

"Huh?"

Na Nali was rather speechless. What normal person would ask a question like that?

In no time at all!

Na Nali accepted that fact. She wasn't normal either, anyway. Hehe...

"Don't worry. First, survive me... no, what I meant was, I'd ask them to step over my dead body first."

Na Nali reined in her smile and reached out to stroke Tang Qingye's head.

The boy turned slightly sideways, quietly stepping back to evade her palm.

Na Nali froze for a moment. "Were you serious about backing away from me?"

"Ahem, big sister, would you believe me if I said I didn't mean to?"

"What do you think? Hehe."

Na Nali's beautiful, dark-red eyes gradually stilled, and a trace of a sickly smile emerged.

I'm done for!

Her fair arm swept out, locking him brutally into her embrace.

Her arm was immensely strong, like an iron hoop, leaving him unable to struggle in the slightest.

The woman pressed her cheek against the crown of his head, obsessive infatuation churning in her eyes. Her fingers buried themselves deep in his blue-green hair, rubbing it wantonly until his neatly arranged long hair was a complete mess.

"Don't even think about dodging me. From now on, everything about you belongs to me."

Leng Yaozhu: Fine, fine, fine. Someone's come to fight me for Yeye...

Na Nali: So after all that talking, that's the only sentence you heard!!!

Leng Nu Jiao: Bastard!

Take your hands off the young master!

Icy, delicate fingers pinched his jaw, forcing him to raise his head.

The force was so great that it seemed she would crush his bones.

Tang Qingye was forced to meet a pair of dark-red eyes.

"Big sister, here I come."

Blue-green light flashed in Tang Qingye's eyes, and profound patterns of the Dao emerged within them. Wisps of divine radiance flowed from his eyes, turning into invisible blades that plunged straight into her Sea of Consciousness through the gap between their closely locked gazes.

Heavenly Azure Seal!

Countless patterns intertwined and fused, forming a boundless, enormous azure seal that bore down savagely upon Na Nali's Sea of Consciousness with the power to suppress heaven and earth!

Countless spiritual patterns circulated within the luminous seal, producing a heavy restraining force that briefly suppressed Na Nali's Sea of Consciousness, leaving her Spirit Domain Realm Spiritual Power nowhere to go.

The attack struck without warning. Na Nali endured the stabbing pain in her soul as her Soul Power rapidly gathered.

An ink-black bell appeared in her hand. Countless wondrous runes flowed across its surface, green light flickering over them, accompanied by faint, illusory clouds of green smoke, mysterious and eerie.

Nine Soul Rings rose in succession: black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red, red. The nine rings pulsed, and a terrifying pressure instantly swept through the entire space.

Six black and three red-the standard setup for the continent's Douluos.

The bell's chimes reverberated, runes flowing across its pitch-black surface. Countless lingering resentments spewed from within it, illusory figures howling and circling across the sky as they swarmed forward with a bone-corroding chill. Wherever they passed, waves of sinister cold rippled through the air.

The Nine Nether Bell tolled, and ten thousand souls mourned as one!

Fourth Soul Skill, Soul-Devouring Demonic Sound!

Watching it turn into blood-red ripples visible to the naked eye, Tang Qingye chose to let Big Baby take over this body formed from the blue-green Gourd and shield him from the front.

There was no helping it. He couldn't take it. All he could do was hope Big Baby wouldn't be hurt too badly.

But just as the blood-red ripples were about to slice through Big Baby's body, they strangely vanished.

Big Baby only felt an immense force hit him, sending him flying violently backward. Flying again...

Doesn't seem to hurt much. Whatever. I've risked my life and shed blood for Master. What does that loser Jiu'er have to compete with me? Jiejiejie!

Before you see me, you're like a frog in a well gazing at the moon in the sky; once you see me, you're like a mayfly beholding the azure heavens.

I am the foremost divine general under Master's command! Hurry and pay homage to me, Azure Heavenly Emperor Big Baby! Those who chant my true name shall behold eternal life within reincarnation!

Following behind the sound waves, countless dark-green wraiths swarmed out with piercing roars. Upon discovering that their target had vanished, they erupted in every direction like a gushing well.

Yet a fiery-red Soul Power barrier enveloped them. When their surging assault reached the barrier constructed from phoenix power, it vanished like clay oxen entering the sea, accompanied by piercing howls.

Clear, soaring phoenix cries rose and fell in flowing melodies, forming a stark contrast. His darling master had arrived to reign supreme!

Leng Yaozhu's gaze was indifferent. A wisp of crimson phoenix-fire Soul Power drifted from her fingertip, turning into fine shackles of luminous patterns in midair that enveloped Na Nali.

Forming a seal with one hand, she summoned a gigantic Heavenly Phoenix phantom behind her. Blazing Heavenly Phoenix True Fire filled the sky, its scorching flames nearly burning the air itself. The bell retreated again and again, ringing incessantly.

Na Nali felt her meridians suddenly stiffen. The dark-green Soul Power within her seemed frozen solid, its circulation nearly severed, and the Soul-Devouring Demonic Sound poised to strike almost collapsed on the spot.

She did everything she could to activate the Dark Bell, but her Soul Rings remained dim. She simply stopped bothering to struggle and quietly watched Tang Qingye beside Leng Yaozhu. Black hair and mismatched eyes-is this your true appearance...?

Leng Nu Jiao: You still dare look at my young master!

Na Nali was only a Super Douluo. Against Leng Yaozhu, the only things that could help her escape were her Spirit Domain Realm Spiritual Power and the bizarre methods of an Evil Soul Master, but now she could do nothing.

She was very curious. Why had the Spirit Pagoda's Deputy Pagoda Master appeared here? She hadn't given away any footsteps. Whoever had used cheats knew it themselves!

Leng Yaozhu said, "You wanted to lay hands on my disciple. Who sent you? Tell me who the mole in the Spirit Pagoda is, and I can leave your corpse intact."

Na Nali: *?*

Time turned back to the whispered conversation between master and disciple.

"Master, ever since I came here, I've kept vaguely feeling a sinister presence watching me. Whenever I get close to that direction, stabbing pains run through my Sea of Consciousness. That evil presence seems to want to kill me."

With Tang Qingye's detailed description, Leng Yaozhu instantly knew who the evil presence he spoke of belonged to-the Holy Spirit Cult!

"Master, since they're coming for me, why don't we take the initiative?"

"No. I absolutely won't let you put yourself in danger."

"Don't be afraid. I'll protect you. If those Evil Soul Masters want to hurt you, they'll have to step over my dead body."

"Master..."

"I wasn't planning to put myself in danger. I have a plan, Master."

"Can I explain the rest to you slowly later?" Tang Qingye gently took his master's little earlobe into his mouth.

"Hehe, I wasn't planning to kill him. I only wanted to keep him as a pet, but..."

Na Nali paused, then said weakly, "Someone did give me information. It was..."

"Speak."

"Qiangu Dongfeng." Na Nali was very satisfied with her answer.

Leng Yaozhu's expression shifted slightly. Her first reaction had also been...

Qiangu Dongfeng: You just exposed me like that? And Pagoda Master Heavenly Phoenix, what happened to trust between people?

"I won't believe your one-sided account. Since you dared harbor designs on someone of mine, then you..."

The Heavenly Phoenix claws formed from Heavenly Phoenix True Fire bared their razor edges. Tang Qingye, whom Na Nali had been staring at all along, spoke calmly. "Master, she can help with my cultivation. Spare her life for now."

"I have a way to control her. Master, trust me."

Leng Yaozhu gave him a meaningful look. After a long while, she said, "All right. As you wish."
