Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 706 Yun Xue's Trouble.

Yun Xue became calmer and used her head to push back the enemy. The demonic cultivator did not expect this young girl to have such an intricate command over her skills. She was the stronger one among them, yet she was the one feeling the pressure. 

She could not take down this, but watching Bo Qingtan standing on the sideline and observing the array circle, she dared not reveal her card. The enemy was wary of her because she made them think she was also a corpse refiner. However, she was only manipulating the situation, and it was not true. 

She was thankful that her enemy was filled with rage, and they did not look too deeply into why she was helping Cao Yanjing. She never thought she would feel good about the spiritual cultivators hating her. 

Yun Xue began to gain ground in the battle as she faced the dilemma of using her cards. The entire place was about to turn into an ice land. This cold was hindering her. She was unable to concentrate on her attacks. One thing was her attire. However, she could not use the demonic energy to prevent the cold from seeping into her body. 

She could not figure out what was happening because when she had faced other spiritual cultivators in the past, nothing like this had happened. Why was Yun Xue able to hinder her so much? 

The eyes of the two ladies met, and Yun Xue smirked. She could sense that what she was doing was working. Her blade began to move swiftly, and she aimed at the vitals. If the enemy failed to defend herself, the enemy would be injured. 

Yun Xue was cleverly using her skills and making the lady expose loopholes in her techniques. She did not look down on the enemy, but she did expect some weakness in her skills. None of the cultivators in the world were perfect. All the techniques in the world had a counter. 

The young lady from Snow Maiden Peak was known for her smoothness, and she was ruthless. Before meeting Shi Lang, she had never shown a soft side, and everyone thought she was inhumane on a battlefield. None of her prey have ever managed to get away from her. 

Shi Lang was the only one who could make her break a sweat and even feel the fear of death. The scar on her face did not affect her confidence in battle. Only the impression Shi Lang would have of her bothered her conscience. Even with the scar, she was battle crazy. 

In the mercenary group, she was even stronger than Ming, the female leader of her division. As she fought the enemy, her confidence grew. She could tell that the enemy was faltering. However, it could be one of those days or her hatred towards this lady that she let her guard down and was about to make a decisive blow when she realized something was off. 

The realization had come too late. She had committed so much to the move that she could not return it. The options she had now were all disadvantageous for her. It was only the question of whether she wanted to suffer a bigger loss or a smaller one. 

If she pulled back from the attack, she would lose all the momentum and even suffer a backlash. If she took the enemy's attack, it would leave her with significant damage. The battle will slip out of her grasp, and it will be her death soon. 

She knew Bo Qingtan was here, but he may not have helped her. The only thing that she could hope for now was for Shi Lang's arrival. Only he was strong enough to help her and Bo Qingtan save themselves and these hostages.

The demonic cultivator smiled, and then she moved in to attack. She knew there was a good chance for Yun Xue to pull back, but she would not allow that to happen. Her blade shimmered, and it turned into multiple images. 

Yun Xue thought she spotted Shi Lang wielding a sword at her, and suddenly she moved back. One of the images came close to her heart, and she moved to the side with a quick step. The blade stabbed through her shoulder, and Yun Xue winced. She yelled, "Yin Demon!!"

Her cry alerted Bo Qingtan, who knew he had no option but to intervene in the matter now. He moved quickly and arrived beside Yun Xue. He stabbed the sword and the enemy and pushed her back. Yun Xue's sword-wielding hand was injured. She would not be able to fight with the efficiency she had earlier. 

Bo Qingtan asked while facing the enemy, "How are you?" 

Yun Xue gazed at her wound and examined it carefully before she said, "I will live, but my hand is paralyzed for the time being. Her blade is smeared with toxins." 

As she spoke, she took out a pill from her space ring and popped it. The demonic cultivator smiled and said, "Commendable, I did not expect you to be able to identify my poison and even carry an antidote pill. You are indeed a strong enemy. Tell me something, how did you manage to make me feel cold? You know I thrive on the cold of Yin energy, yet your skill made me shiver and play defensive. What did you do?" 

Yun Xue replied, "Do you think I will reveal my technique to you? Fuck off, you lustful bitch." 

Bo Qingtan raised his brow, and Yun Xue continued, "This woman is a yin demon. She siphons off the Yin energy of a person to gain strength." 

Bo Qingtan was in battle mode, but now he even raised his mental barriers by a notch. This was not an easy enemy to face. Just as he was thinking about how to face this person, he noticed that Yun Xue coughed up blood. 

He looked at the lady, who bitterly smiled and said, "To think that your poison was not only a paralyzing agent but also a spirit melting agent. You are one cunning bitch, I will give you that." 

The lady chuckled and replied, "Thank you for the trouble, now do yourself a favor, sit down like a good girl and I will show you how to do a lady later. It will be fun, you will like it." 

Yun Xue looked at Bo Qingtan's back and said, "Sorry." 

Her carelessness had dragged her companion into trouble.
