Chapter 5

Defeat

Nie Yin had been observing from the side. When he heard Li Ling’s order, he frowned slightly. He felt that Li Ling was too rash, but he didn’t stop her.

The woman in front of him had an unknown background and almost no spiritual power. Everyone knew that this was either because the other party’s spiritual power was too high, or because she brought a tool to block spiritual power, or because she was an ordinary person who hadn’t awakened her spiritual power.

But how could such a person be alone and not be injured in this Spirit Mountain filled with danger?

He needed to find out more about her, and Li Ling was a good scout!

The Thousand Gold Leopard had long adjusted its state. After Li Ling gave the order, it pounced at Kong Rui!

There was a restriction in the Demon Abyss. After Kong Rui consumed the pill refined by Kong Niang, she could only stay outside the Demon Abyss for five minutes. After that, frost would slowly form on her body, and she would be dragged back to the Demon Abyss.

Finding the Soul Return Flower to give her the unhatched beast egg had already wasted a long time. Now, Li Ling didn’t want to waste her time anymore, so she directly attacked, but this was exactly what she wanted.

In order to reward Li Ling for her thoughtfulness, Kong Rui would give Li Ling a reward!

Under the veil, Kong Rui had a strange smile on her face.

She pulled out the phoenix hairpin from her hair and waved it in the air. Bang! A clear sound shot into the sky, accompanied by a faint vibration.

“You’re really overestimating yourself,” Li Ling said disdainfully.

“She’s simply courting death!” The surrounding female slaves also watched and praised Li Ling.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, the soaring spiritual energy on Kong Rui’s body rendered them speechless, and her phoenix hairpin actually turned into a fiery red Vermillion Bird. The Vermillion Bird flicked up and directly attacked the Thousand Treasure Leopard’s weak point—its eyes!

Li Ling’s expression instantly became one of disbelief. How was this possible?!

She actually had a ninth level spiritual body!

Li Ling was filled with jealousy. Even her cousin, Wen Qiong, who had awakened the phoenix essence, had such talent and divine luck, but she only had a third level spiritual body. How could she have a ninth level spiritual body? Was this bitch even worthy of it?

Li Ling gritted her teeth. She knew that she was going to lose. With the spiritual power suppression and attribute suppression, the Thousand Gold Leopard had no chance of victory, but she definitely wouldn’t beg this bitch for mercy!

Li Ling’s pleading gaze landed on Nie Yin. Just as she called out, the Thousand Gold Leopard let out a sorrowful cry.

It attacked a few times, but the Vermillion Bird dodged all the attacks. Its eyes had already been pecked blind by the Vermillion Bird!

“Ah! My eyes! My eyes hurt!” Li Ling wailed and covered her eyes with both hands. The expression on her face was already distorted by pain.

The state of the intrinsic spirit beast would be sensed by its master. The pain the Thousand Gold Leopard suffered was constantly transmitted to Li Ling’s body. She wasn’t blinded, but the pain was excruciating!

Everyone gasped. They didn’t expect Kong Rui to be so powerful. Li Ling, who they had praised, was defeated in just one exchange.

Kong Rui had already won, but she had no intention of stopping!

The torture that Li Ling had given her in the past kept surfacing at this moment. The killing intent in her eyes was intense.

The queen was Li Ling’s aunt. Since she had snatched his intrinsic spirit beast, she would destroy Li Ling’s intrinsic spirit beast for revenge!

Kong Rui curled her lips and leaned forward. She said softly to the Vermillion Bird, “Your performance was good. How obedient. I’ll allow you to burn it to death to eat.”

The Vermillion Bird obediently circled in the sky before bending down to sprint and spit out the Red Lotus Karma Fire. The Thousand Gold Leopard was instantly covered in a sea of flames. It kept rolling around in an attempt to suppress the fire on its body, but the Red Lotus Karma Fire wasn’t so easily extinguished.

“Stop!” Li Ling roared.

She couldn’t lose her intrinsic spirit beast. Otherwise, how could she carry herself with dignity in the empire?

“Brother Nie, save me!” Li Ling finally said.

“Stop.” Nie Yin, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

He only wanted Li Ling to be a scout, and he didn’t want Li Ling to be killed. Although this person’s death wasn’thing to him, it would still give him some trouble.

“Be lenient when possible. She’s arrogant, but she doesn’t deserve to die for it,” Nie Yin continued.

Kong Rui looked over and raised her eyebrows. She hated threats the most!

Kong Rui retracted her gaze and said to the Vermillion Bird in the sky, “Since someone wants to meddle in other people’s business, burn them all.”
