Chapter 212 Are you a descendant of gods?
“You’re right, so…” Yun’er said with a smile, “After I regained enough strength, I had the Crown Prince put a lot of worm eggs into the water in the academy. Those eggs will enter the body and hatch inside. Although they are not as powerful as the worms that hatch in demonic energy, they are enough to deal with humans.”
"After the larvae hatch, they will begin to absorb their power. At first, in order to avoid being discovered, the larvae will only absorb a little. Once they are fully mature, they will absorb all their power and transfer it to the mother worm. Once I have devoured their power and fully recovered, I will be able to completely transform what is trapping me."
“A good plan,” Ling Yi said. “Your plan is excellent, but why are you making promises?”
“If you have someone kill Xu Nuo, we won’t come looking for you.”
“Him,” Yun’er glanced at Teacher Yuan, “He planted the worms in Xu Nuo’s body himself. He clearly harmed him at first, but when he saw Xu Nuo become like that, he had a change of heart and begged the Crown Prince to send Xu Nuo back to his hometown so that he could die with his family.”
“If he had any conscience, he wouldn’t have acted in the first place. But it was just a small matter. The Crown Prince allowed it so that he would work harder. I didn’t expect to run into you.” Yun’er looked at the group. “I also didn’t expect that you knew that it was a Demon Worm. So, I had the Crown Prince lure you here so that I could kill you.”
“Perfect.” Ling Yi reached out and pulled the wheelchair backward: “You want to kill us, and I want to kill you too.”
"You want to kill me?" Yun'er looked at Ling Yi and smiled mockingly, "Why should I?"
"With your cultivation level of a third-level Spirit Venerable, or with this group of weak and sick people around you?"
Before Ling Yi could answer, Yun'er looked at Ye Qing Shuang: "She's the most capable one among you, but it seems she's about to give up too."
With a "bang," as soon as Yun'er finished speaking, Changyun and Teacher Yuan broke through Ye Qingshuang's barrier and attacked her directly.
Seeing the two attacking, Ye Qingshuang raised her hand and waved, and the water chain suddenly flew out, binding the two. But in an instant, Changyun broke the water chain and at the same time grabbed the chain on Teacher Yuan's body and pulled, and the water chain binding Teacher Yuan also broke.
Ye Qingshuang raised her hand and grabbed a flute, but before she could play it, a long sword came and blocked Changyun's attack.
Ye Qingshuang looked up and saw that the person who made the move was Lin Chengtian. She immediately said, "You are no match for him. Get out of the way!"
Before Lin Chengtian could say anything, his longsword was shattered. The next moment, Changyun's palm was aimed straight at his heart. However, just as Changyun's palm was about to land on Lin Chengtian's heart, Lin Chengtian leaped up, dodging Changyun's attack. Before Changyun could withdraw his hand, he kicked out.
"boom"
Changyun was kicked away and crashed into the wall, breaking through it, which shows how powerful Lin Chengtian's kick was.
"You..." Ye Qingshuang looked at Lin Chengtian, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Lin Chengtian didn't respond. The moment he landed, demonic energy condensed into a sword. Holding the sword, he flew directly towards Yun'er to attack.
Looking at Lin Chengtian's appearance, Yun'er's face also showed shock: "Demonic energy?"
Yun'er dared not be careless and met Lin Chengtian head-on. The two forces collided, and the main hall exploded.
Bai Jiu, carrying Lin Xinze, Ling Yi, picking up Ji Yanzhi, and Ye Qingshuang, putting away her flute, left the main hall as quickly as possible. After they left, the main hall collapsed with a crash.
Lin Chengtian leaped out from the ruins and relentlessly approached Yun'er. Yun'er was forced to retreat step by step, and was almost injured by the sword in Lin Chengtian's hand several times.
Ling Yi put Ji Yanzhi down again, looked at Lin Chengtian, and quickly noticed a problem.
She held back.
It wasn't that Yun'er couldn't be hurt, but rather that she deliberately held back every time she had the chance.
Ling Yi frowned slightly. Why was this happening?
Ling Yi quickly learned the reason.
Lin Chengtian is absorbing Yun'er's demonic energy!
Yes, Lin Chengtian used demonic energy to cultivate, but since arriving in Qizhou, he has no demonic energy left. Yun'er is the only one he has had in recent days.
"You're absorbing my demonic energy?" Yun'er also noticed this and looked at Lin Chengtian in disbelief.
After Yun'er discovered this, Lin Chengtian retreated to Ling Yi's side. The sword formed by demonic energy dissipated, and Lin Chengtian swayed slightly before regaining control of his body.
Lin Chengtian took a few deep breaths, but did not faint as before.
His physical endurance has improved.
Ling glanced at him, but before she could say anything, Yun'er's voice came: "Okay!"
"You keep saying I'm a demon, but aren't there demons around you too?" Yun'er sneered. "If that's the case, why target me?"
Ye Qingshuang sneered: "It's not certain whether he's a demon or not. Even if he is, he didn't use the Demon Worm to absorb other people's power."
Yun'er looked at Ye Qingshuang: "So it was you who destroyed the worms inside Xu Nuo's body?"
"You know about the Demon Insects, and you can even destroy them. Could you perhaps be a descendant of a god?"
"Pah!" Ye Qingshuang spat, "I'd rather be a maggot in a latrine than a descendant of a god."
Seeing how much Ye Qingshuang hated the divine descendant, Yun'er was a little surprised. But if she wasn't a divine descendant, why would she know so much about the Demon Insect and even destroy it?
"Whether you are or not, you've ruined my plans." Yun'er looked at the group and said, "No matter who you are, you won't leave here alive today!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yun'er raised her hand and formed a hand seal. A barrier filled with cold air appeared, trapping Ling Yi and his group inside and blocking the outside world's view, making it impossible for anyone to see what was happening inside.
At the same time, Yun'er raised her hand to form a hand seal, using the mother worm to forcefully drive the offspring worms, allowing the offspring worms dormant in the students' bodies to forcibly absorb power.
As the hand seals were completed, many students suddenly screamed during class. At the same time, they clearly felt their internal energy draining away continuously.
Upon discovering this, the teacher immediately reported it to the academy, which promptly dispatched an alchemist to investigate. The students with higher cultivation levels were able to hold on, but those with lower cultivation levels quickly fell into a coma.
The Imperial Academy was thrown into chaos, while in the mansion, a huge ice ball appeared in front of Yun'er. As the ice ball fully appeared, countless arrows flew out from it, heading towards Ling Yi and the others.
Seeing the incoming arrows, Ye Qingshuang and Ling Yi acted simultaneously, creating a barrier to block the ice arrows. However, the ice arrows were relentless, and cracks soon appeared in the barrier.
If this continues, the barrier will crack completely in no time!
This is not a solution!
Ye Qingshuang looked at Ling Yi, wanting to say something, but as soon as she looked over, she saw Ling Yi attacking Yun'er directly.
"boom!"
Just as Ling Yi attacked Yun'er, the little golden tiger opened its mouth and spat out a bolt of lightning at the ice ball in front of Yun'er. Wherever the lightning passed, the ice arrows shattered.
"boom"
When the lightning struck the ice ball, the huge ice ball exploded with a bang. At that moment, Ling Yi used his teleportation ability to appear in front of Yun'er.
Looking at Ling Yi who appeared in front of her, Yun'er sneered: "I've seen people who are looking for death, but I've never seen anyone as looking for death as you!"
After saying that, he struck out with a palm towards Ling Yipai.
Faced with Yun'er's attack, Ling Yi advanced instead of retreating, raising his hand to catch it, however...
The moment their palms touched, a shadow darted out from Ling Yi's sleeve. The shadow was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it reached Yun'er's neck from Ling Yi's sleeve.
A chill ran down her neck, and Yun'er was startled. She immediately channeled her power into her neck, and in an instant, her neck was covered with a layer of ice.
"Crack!"
Jin Zhou took a bite, and the ice cracked. However, because the ice was thick enough, Jin Zhou couldn't bite Yun'er. When Yun'er heard the sound of the ice cracking, she felt that something was wrong and tried to retreat to deal with her belongings, but Ling Yi grabbed her hand.
The cold air spread and froze Ling Yi's hand in the blink of an eye. Seeing that Ling Yi's hand was frozen, Yun'er seized the opportunity and slapped Ling Yi's chest with her palm.
A shrill whistle rang in her ears. Hearing that sound, Yun'er felt as if her brain was about to explode. The pain was unbearable, but the attack had already been launched. Yun'er did not want to miss this opportunity, so she endured the excruciating pain and intensified her attack.
Just as her hand was about to land on Ling Yi's chest, frost, even more translucent and beautiful than her ice, appeared and blocked her attack.
With a "crack," the frost shattered, but after the frost broke apart, a biting cold air rushed out and began to freeze when it landed on Yun'er.
However, Ling Yi did not unleash power beyond his body's tolerance this time, and the power within his tolerance was insufficient to deal with Yun'er. Therefore, as soon as the cold energy began to stir, Yun'er dispelled it.
“You…” Yun’er looked at Ling Yi and raised her hand to attack, but the shrieking in her ear was too torturous. Ignoring Ling Yi, Yun’er raised her hand to grab at her ear.
When Jin Zhou tried to grab Yun'er, he went around to the other side, and Yun'er then grabbed at the other side.
Jin Zhou ran away again before Yun'er could catch him. Yun'er struggled for a while but couldn't catch Jin Zhou. In the end, Jin Zhou left her body on his own and returned to Ling Yixiu.
Yun'er looked at Ling Yi with a grim expression: "A war of attrition?"
"Do you really think you can deal with me like this?"
"Yes." Ling nodded. "That's exactly what I thought."
Yun'er was surprised by Ling Yi's decisive admission, and her expression turned even uglier. But before she could speak, the attack came again.
Yun'er was startled and stepped back, putting some distance between herself and Ling Yi. However, as soon as she left, Ling Yi used his Flash to catch up, his sword condensing into cold energy and suddenly flying out.
The moment Yun'er raised her hand, an ice wall appeared, blocking the ice swords. After the ice swords disappeared, the power in Yun'er's hand flickered, and countless ice shards rose from under Ling Yi's feet.
Ling Yi flew away, and when he landed, a fire lotus appeared at his feet. The ice shards collided with the fire lotus, trying to pierce it, but were instead melted by the fire lotus.
"How could this be?" Yun'er looked at Ling Yi, her eyes filled with disbelief: "How could your cultivation level suddenly increase so much?"
Ling Yi did not answer her. He ascended with flames in his body. Wherever the flames passed, the ice turned to water. However, the water was not for Yun'er's use. Under Ling Yi's control, the water condensed into a vessel and flew towards Yun'er.
Seeing the ice she had created turn into weapons aimed at her, Yun'er's face turned ashen, but there was nothing she could do, since she only had an ice spirit root.
"Fire, ice, water..." Yun'er looked at Ling Yi and sneered, "You have quite a few spiritual roots, but having them all at the same time consumes more spiritual power. I'd like to see how long you can last." After saying that, Yun'er stopped attacking and only defended, her goal being to exhaust Ling Yi's power. However, she didn't know that Ling Yi had the ability to devour.
Each time she touched him, Ling Yi would devour her power.
Yun'er had supplies from the students, and Ling Yi had supplies from her. A quarter of an hour passed, and ice and water were everywhere inside the barrier. The battle between the two was not yet over.
Ye Qingshuang looked at Ling Yi with a suspicious expression: "If you can clearly handle it, why drag it out?"
Ji Yanzhi said calmly, "The mother worm."
"Hmm?" Ye Qingshuang lowered her eyes and looked down: "What does this have to do with the mother insect?"
Ji Yanzhi said, "The more power the mother worm absorbs, the stronger it becomes. The stronger the mother worm, the more beneficial it is to Jin Zhou. The reason Ling Yi didn't kill her directly is that he wanted to use the battle to make the mother worm inside her absorb more power and become stronger."
Ye Qingshuang didn't expect it was because of this. After finding out, she didn't say anything, but just quietly looked at Ling Yi.
Ji Yanzhi also remained silent.
After a long while, Ye Qingshuang finally spoke: "Even so, so what?"
The demonic insects weren't given to them by Ling Yi. Even without Ling Yi's current catalysis, Yun'er would have done the same thing sooner or later. No matter how many people die because of this, it can't be blamed on Ling Yi.
"Not so much," Ji Yanzhi replied calmly.
Ye Qingshuang glanced at him and then fell silent.
After talking and waiting a while, Ling Yi stopped lingering and turned to Ye Qingshuang: "Can you do me a favor?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingshuang immediately took out her flute and began to play, her eager expression suggesting she had been waiting for this moment.
Ling Yi's eyes flickered, but he said nothing and turned back to continue attacking Yun'er.
For the sake of the mother worm, Ling Yi could not use poison, so he could only use Ye Qingshuang's flute music and Jin Zhou's shriek to slow down Yun'er's movements, find the right opportunity, remove the heart, and take out the mother worm.
The opportunity came quickly. Ling Yi leaned against Yun'er, grabbed her hands with both of his, and Jin Zhou took the opportunity to fly out from his sleeve, rush to Yun'er's chest, and bite towards her heart.
"No!"
"do not want!"
Seeing Jin Zhou open his mouth to bite down, Yun'er struggled violently: "You can't do this! You can't do this!"
Ling Yi held her down tightly, while Jin Zhou bit a wound in Yun'er's chest and then stabbed his hand into it, quickly pulling out a fat worm.
Jin Zhou ate the insect in two bites and then returned to Ling Yixiu's sleeve. Yun'er's mother insect was taken away, her heart was injured, and her power began to dissipate.
Ling Yi released the person, and Yun'er was freed. She turned to run away, but the moment she turned, a bone knife pierced through her body.
“You…” Yun’er turned to look at Ling Yi: “You have already gotten what you wanted, why won’t you let me go?”
Ling Yi looked at her coldly: "What I want is more than just the mother insect." With that, Ling Yi drew his bone knife, and Yun'er fell to the ground with a thud.
Yun'er glared fiercely at Ling Yi, her eyes filled with hatred: "My brother will never let you go!"
