Just as Dugu Yan was about to spit out the poison, Qi Ling's figure instantly pounced on her, arriving in front of Dugu Yan and grabbing her chin with one hand.
"Ah~" Dugu Yan cried out in pain. Qi Ling pinched her chin, and she couldn't close or open her mouth. She only felt a sharp pain.
The Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison was ultimately just a Soul Skill of Dugu Yan, not a toxin naturally stored in her body. Now that Qi Ling had controlled her like this, she was immediately unable to use it.
"Do you really think I wouldn't dare kill you? I know everything about your identity, background, origins, and origins. Even if your grandfather is that person, I won't hold back!" Qi Ling whispered in Dugu Yan's ear, her other hand sliding down Dugu Yan's smooth back and resting on her snake tail.
"Even if you've transformed into a half-human, half-snake form, you're still human at heart, and your physical structure remains unchanged." Qi Ling pulled Dugu Yan's face closer, looking directly into her eyes.
"With just a little effort, I can render your lower body permanently immobile in this spot. Even a celestial being couldn't save you. Want to try it?"
As Qi Ling released a little Soul Power at Dugu Yan's snake tail, Dugu Yan immediately felt a piercing pain, and even the changes in her snake tail could hardly be maintained.
At the same time, from Qi Ling's Middle God, Dugu Yan saw for the first time what death and terror were! She was afraid. For the first time in her life, she, who had never been afraid of anything, was afraid.
Seeing the despair and helplessness Middle God Dugu Yan's eyes, Qi Ling knew that she had already given up, all alone.
So he released his grip on her and tossed her aside.
Now, all that remains in front of him is Yu Tianba, who has not yet been cured, and Ye Lingling, who is desperately trying to heal him.
Ye Lingling was trembling with fear. The Imperial Fighting Team had never experienced such a battle since its inception, and they didn't even have time to heal themselves.
This is because the damage Qi Ling inflicted on Yu Tianba was simply too great! His punch showed absolutely no mercy; it seemed he truly intended to kill Yu Tianba.
When I took over treating Yu Tianba, I realized that Yu Tianba was almost on the verge of death. I was now fighting against the King of Hell, and the speed of my treatment was already considered extremely fast.
Qi Ling walked to Ye Lingling's side, but instead of stopping her from treating Yu Tianba, she gently placed her hand on Ye Lingling's head, her movements soft and careful.
"Treat him quickly, and once he's healed, treat the others too," Qi Ling said calmly to Ye Lingling.
"What... what do you want to do?" Ye Lingling was like a little rabbit, being targeted by Qi Ling, the Gray Wolf, and could only tremble helplessly and pitifully.
"Nothing much, I just didn't get enough of it earlier, so I wanted to play again!" Qi Ling smiled as brightly as the sun, but her words sent chills down one's spine.
Looking at this person who embodied both angel and devil, Ye Lingling was terrified. This time, she was truly terrified from the bottom of her heart. Why had she provoked such a person?
After finishing her treatment of Yu Tianba, Ye Lingling hesitated for a moment, then mustered her courage and said to Qi Ling, "I... I don't want to treat anyone else."
Qi Ling asked curiously, "Why?"
"Because... because I healed them, you'll defeat them again," Ye Lingling said. "I already know they can't beat you."
"Heh, you're quite the kind-hearted child," Qi Ling laughed. "Based on what you said, I should logically let you go."
"But unfortunately, while you think this way, some people don't."
Ye Lingling was puzzled, but just then, a burst of lightning appeared behind her. Yu Tianba, having recovered, summoned his Martial Soul once again.
" Ye Lingling, treat them immediately!" Yu Tianba said Lingling, "Our Imperial Fighting Team cannot lose here! Absolutely not!"
"But, they..." Ye Lingling wanted to say something, but was suddenly lifted up by Yu Tianba's hand.
"Stop with the nonsense, treat them now! Even if I die today, I will defeat him!" Yu Tianba said, his eyes bloodshot. "Otherwise, how can I wash away the humiliation in my heart!"
Threatened by Yu Tianba, Ye Lingling had no choice but to agree to his demands. Qi Ling, standing to the side, watched this scene without any reaction, because what Yu Tianba wanted to do was exactly the same as what he was doing.
As the members of the Imperial Fighting Team recovered one by one, they seemed to have regained their complete formation. However, they all knew that the situation was now completely reversed from the beginning, and Qi Ling held the absolute advantage!
"Are you ready?" Qi Ling asked the Imperial Fighting Team calmly. "If you're ready, then come and attack."
"However, I must make this clear first: this time, I won't hold back." Qi Ling's tone turned cold, her voice devoid of emotion. "Even the Nine Heart Begonia shouldn't be able to bring the dead back to life, right?"
A suffocating killing intent swept over them with Qi Ling's words, causing everyone in the Imperial Fighting Team to involuntarily take a step back, their faces showing fear.
No one is unafraid of death, especially when they know that the opponent is a demon they absolutely cannot defeat and who doesn't care about killing. Fear is the most normal human reaction.
Seeing his teammates' reaction, Yu Tianba angrily shouted, "What are you doing? What are you afraid of? Can you still call yourselves the Imperial Fighting Team like this? Yu Feng, Osler, get out there!"
Yu Feng said in a panic, "Boss, I really can't do it, his Immortal-Binding Rope is completely ineffective against me!"
Osler also looked away and said, "Boss, I... I don't have the courage to face him."
"Useless! All of you are useless!" Yu Tianba roared. "What about the Shi Brothers?!"
The Shi Brothers exchanged a glance, and one of them said, " Tianba, we can no longer fight. Our Black Tortoise can no longer be formed."
Without that tortoise shell, the Shi Brothers essentially lost most of their fighting ability; even if they managed to fight, it wouldn't be of much use.
"Damn it, what use are you to me! Yanzi, what about you, you too..." Yu Tianba finally looked at Dugu Yan. He had originally wanted Dugu Yan to fight alongside him, but he was stunned the moment he saw Dugu Yan.
At this moment, Dugu Yan stared at Qi Ling without moving, her eyes filled with a kind of brilliance that she had never seen before, a brilliance that Yu Tianba had longed for but had never seen her show to him!
After experiencing the fear of death, a special feeling for Qi Ling awakened in Dugu Yan's heart! She, Dugu Yan, had always been the one to manipulate others, but this was the first time someone could completely control her.
For some reason, this feeling seems pretty good!
When a person becomes fascinated by death, death becomes incredibly alluring to her! Therefore, Dugu Yan's feelings towards Qi Ling at this moment are a strange mix of fear and fascination, a desire to escape yet an irresistible urge to explore.
