The Cool and Aloof Senior Sister Always Flirts with Me

Chapter 21: Three in One

Yan Jue felt the overwhelming power of the monkey demon suppressing her, once again experiencing what it meant to be crushed by a higher cultivation level.

Although she had already reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, she was still unable to move under the monkey demon's fierce oppression.

Yan Jue struggled to open her eyes and suddenly saw a slender figure appear at the cave entrance.

At the same time, the monkey demon leaped into the air, swinging the iron rod in its hand.

A strong gust of wind rushed towards her, the iron rod filled with immense force, coming dangerously close to her head.

Yan Jue stared at the distant figure and, after revealing a knowing smile, her body trembled slightly, uncontrollably.

There was still some distance between the cave entrance and the bed here, and Qi Xianqing was so far away from her that time was surely running out.

Just as the iron rod was about to touch her forehead, Yan Jue closed her eyes, suddenly feeling an extremely fierce wind brush against her face, accompanied by the sound of fine friction. The anticipated pain did not arrive.

Yan Jue was stunned and opened her eyes wide.

Qi Xianqing had somehow appeared behind the monkey demon, dust swirling at her feet. She had half-bent knees, fingertips lightly touching the ground to lessen inertia, then drew her sword and rose, her body forming an almost graceful arc in the air.

A flash of blue light passed by, and suddenly, the monkey demon's head split in two!

So fast... too fast...

Everything flowed smoothly, not rushed but incredibly swift.

The blue light swept through, and the monkey demon was split like a watermelon. Qi Xianqing started from the top of its head and ended at the bottom, cleaving its body in half!

A strong smell of blood mixed with demonic energy filled the air. Yan Jue stared in shock at the scene of Qi Xianqing killing the demon, her heart unsettled for a long time.

Qi Xianqing's expression was as cold as frost, and the immortal sword "Zhu Ying" trembled violently in the air.

The pitch-black demon blood was slowly devoured by the sword body.

In just a moment, the sword gradually regained a faint blue hue, emitting a layer of cold light under the dim candlelight.

Qi Xianqing looked down at Yan Jue.

Yan Jue instinctively lowered her gaze, feeling hesitant to meet her eyes.

Although Qi Xianqing was now standing on the same battlefield as her, there was still an aura about her that made all evil beings tremble in fear.

Her heart was racing, but the intense pain in her abdomen surged again.

Qi Xianqing's voice sounded from above, clear and untainted: "What's wrong?"

Yan Jue pressed her abdomen, her face pale as she breathed, "My stomach... hurts."

Qi Xianqing knew that the initial phase of spiritual energy fusion was inherently unstable and too heavy for Yan Jue, making it impossible for her to absorb it immediately.

That surge of spiritual energy had been in Yan Jue's abdomen for five days, which was likely the limit for her body.

Qi Xianqing bent down and helped Yan Jue up, sitting her on the bed over there. "Don't move, I'll help you push the spiritual energy out."
