Banshee Family Training Record

Page 55

The remaining yellow python demons flicked their tongues and hissed as they rushed into the sky. However, they were only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, or even just the early stage. How could they possibly pose any threat to Ye Jinglan?

Her body blurred into afterimages, while these powerful cultivators seemed like sluggish turtles in front of her, unable to defend themselves at all. Their heads were injured one after another, and they were kicked and knocked around like rubber balls, falling all over the mountainside. It was a one-sided beating.

Zhu Yunqing hid behind her eldest sister, her right hand inside the wide sleeve below her left hand, not in a hurry to make a move.

She squinted, watching everything with a cold expression, until a snake demon in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage concealed itself and attempted to launch a surprise attack from behind. Only then did she suddenly make her move, throwing out a cyan flying knife that spewed deadly poison, which arrived behind the yellow python in the blink of an eye!

The latter suddenly bristled with fear, his scales standing on end. He quickly flipped over and unleashed a powerful burst of spiritual energy, deflecting the sneak attack. However, this exposed his plan. Ye Jinglan retaliated with a kick, deforming the man's head and sending him crashing to the nearby mountain, bleeding from all seven orifices!

For a moment, she seemed unstoppable. In Yun Chu'an's room, everyone watched quietly. Feng Jian couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "That young lady, she really has amazing skills!"

Dongfang Yue couldn't stand him praising others, and continued, "They still can't compare to Senior Sister. If Senior Sister had taken action, these snake demons would have been killed long ago!"

Monk Huijing nodded: "That's true."

Beside them, another monk suddenly spoke up: "However, it's truly unexpected that the second and eldest sisters of this family are both demon cultivators, one a green snake and the other a butterfly."

He made a pointed remark, and Lao Wen glanced at him and said, "There's nothing wrong with that, is there? Good and evil aren't divided by race. Weren't the high-ranking members of the Corpse-Driving Sect all human demon cultivators back then?"

Another monk said, "That's true. Ah, I remember that the Qingyun Sect's philosophy used to be that humans are supreme and those who are not of our race must have different hearts. It seems that Sect Master Nangong has put a lot of effort into this over the years."

Dongfang Yue whispered, "Because the more serious traitors of the Qingyun Sect are all human, while the non-human cultivators are quite honest, that's why Mother is thinking this way more and more."

They chatted idly in the room, realizing that the enemy's main target outside was not them, and that Ye Jinglan had a clear advantage, so they relaxed a little for a moment.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened!

The hundreds-of-meters-long late-stage Foundation Establishment python struggled to its feet from the mountaintop, and together with the green snake Zou Min, attempted to attack Ye Jinglan again. But now, knowing the butterfly spirit's power, not a single person dared to be the first to step forward!

Ye Jinglan is much faster than them. Whoever goes first is likely to be hit by a full combo of her punches and could even be beaten to death on the spot. Nobody is willing to take that risk right now!

Zou Min didn't want to, Huang Mang didn't want to, and the snake demons below, already more severely injured, naturally wanted to even less.

The two sides remained locked in a stalemate in mid-air, neither daring to make the first move. The yellow python felt increasingly humiliated and enraged. He had initially found it hard to believe, but now it seemed his wife was far more insightful than he had been. Together, with so many subordinates, they had actually failed to subdue her elder sister!

What a shame!

No, I have to get her today, no matter what!

Immediately, he gave Zou Min a signal, then suddenly lunged forward, charging straight at Ye Jinglan with a death-defying stance. Ye Jinglan understood his meaning; after her husband rushed forward, she abruptly looked up and shouted into the sky, "Fellow Daoist Eagle, why aren't you making your move!"

The sound pierced the sky, and then a cry of an eagle suddenly came from high above, as if it would tear apart the storm that Ye Jinglan had summoned!

Ye Jinglan threw a punch at the giant python in front of her, but a sense of foreboding rose in her heart. The next moment, a jet-black giant eagle suddenly tore through the surrounding gale, and the terrifyingly large falcon swooped down on her!

The giant eagle also exuded a huge and terrifying aura, revealing that it was also a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator!

At this moment, Ye Jinglan actually had to face the siege of three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators at the same time!

"roll!"

She let out a curse, leaped to dodge, then stepped on the yellow python's head with one foot and suddenly spun around to deliver a high kick.

A boundless storm raged around her, and the immense force of her kick struck the eagle's body from a distance, causing it to stumble.

But then, her expression changed drastically, and a sharp pain suddenly shot through her shoulder.

Unbeknownst to her, Zou Min had silently circled behind her, opened her mouth and bit her exposed shoulder, her venomous teeth continuously injecting poison into her body!

"Damn traitor!"

She cursed and threw a punch, but Zou Min didn't hesitate and dodged the attack. Even though Ye Jinglan's fist struck first after being thrown later, the damage had already been done. Her shoulder was injured and her body had been injected with the venom produced by the late Foundation Establishment stage Green Snake!

A feeling of numbness and dizziness washed over her, and her body trembled unsteadily, almost unable to stand!

In the courtyard, Hua Caiyan's heart had been in her throat ever since the eagle descended from the storm. Now, seeing her eldest sister suddenly become unstable, she understood that Ye Jinglan must have been poisoned by her second sister, who always used such insidious methods to fight!

"What should we do!" she cried anxiously, pacing back and forth in the courtyard. "Grandma is still in seclusion, Third Sister is still asleep, who can help Eldest Sister, who can..."

Yun Chu'an's face was gloomy. Although he didn't have the eyesight of a telescope and couldn't see exactly what had happened, he could tell that after the eagle suddenly appeared, the storm cyclone created by his eldest sister began to tremble incessantly, which meant that she was definitely not in good condition.

Without hesitation, he immediately turned around, walked to the door, pushed it open, and faced the large room full of people. He bowed and knelt on one knee: "Masters, my family is unfortunate to have such a traitor as my second sister. My eldest and fourth sisters are in danger right now. I cannot stand idly by, but I am powerless to participate in their battle."

Feng Jian moved with lightning speed, catching him before he could kneel. Yun Chu'an stopped, but still kept his head down, and continued, "I beg you seniors to lend a hand and save my elder sister from this perilous situation. The Huai Shan family will repay this kindness tenfold!"

The people in the room remained silent, a heavy pressure weighing on their hearts. They knew that helping out was the best option, but in the sky, three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators were besieging one late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. The highest-ranking among them was Hui Jing, who was only at the mid-stage Foundation Establishment. How could they possibly participate in their battle?

Chapter 127 I will take action

The silence in the room was somewhat awkward. The disciples from several prestigious sects once again felt the powerlessness and shame that came with their weakness.

Perhaps this experience is precisely the purpose of their sect always sending their disciples out to experience and cultivate. As the saying goes, shame leads to courage. After this, they can put aside their pride as the chosen ones of heaven and devote themselves to cultivation even more diligently.

"Rest assured, Benefactor Yun!"

Hui Jing took a deep breath, her expression resolute: "If Benefactor Ye Jinglan is defeated, we will not fare any better. Even if it costs me my life, I will stand with her and drive away that detestable snake demon!"

Yun Chu'an's face lit up with joy, and he was about to thank her when he suddenly heard a woman's voice from behind him: "No need!"

The guest room door opened, and Yan Shuiyi, her face as calm as still water, stepped out with her sword in hand: "I will take action."

……

High above, watching Ye Jinglan's increasingly disheveled state and chaotic spiritual energy, the Green Snake Spirit Zou Min, despite having also been punched and having a buzzing head, couldn't help but burst into wild laughter!

This is what happens to you. This is what happens to you for looking down on me and targeting me at every turn!

Ye Jinglan, when you rejected my resource allocation proposals time and again, did you ever imagine this outcome? Did you ever imagine you would lose so miserably to me?

This is your fate, and Zhu Yunqing, without Ye Jinglan's protection, your fate as a little spider won't be much better!

She laughed inwardly, then turned to look at Zhu Yunqing's position and saw that she was also being attacked by three snake demons, looking quite disheveled. Judging from the situation, her defeat should not be far off.

She was too lazy to finish the job now, so she turned her head to look in the direction of Yun Chu'an's courtyard, her eyes filled with greed.

That day, she searched every corner of the mountain, turning the wolf demon and bear demon's lair upside down. However, because of Ye Jinglan and Zhu Yunqing's obstruction, she was unable to enter that room to search it thoroughly.

After returning home, she became increasingly angry and suspicious, wondering if Zhu Yunqing had hidden her treasures there. That was why they were in such a hurry that day, rushing over so quickly, but in the end, she couldn't even get into that room.

Yes, that must be it. Since those treasures aren't hidden in her own bedroom, they're very likely actually in that room!

After all, Qi Qiao was a zombie, and Yun Chu'an was so weak. Their rooms were inconspicuous and not easily noticed, yet Zhu Yunqing could easily control them both...

The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Her suspicious nature made her impatient, so she shouted, "I'm going to check if they've transferred any assets!" Then she swooped down and landed directly in Yun Chu'an's courtyard.

The courtyard was deserted. Her body transformed into a human form in a wisp of green smoke, her narrow face filled with greed, and her triangular eyes gleaming with excitement: "What, Second Sister has arrived, and no one is coming out to greet her?"

"Fine, if you won't open the door, then let me see for myself what kind of surprises are hidden in your little room!"

As she spoke, she walked to the door, stretched out her hands, and suddenly pulled the door open—

Then she saw a woman with black hair tied up in a hairpin on her head, dressed in a striking black and white sword outfit, holding a three-foot-long sword with a sharp silver sheen in her arms, staring at her with murderous intent.

Instantly, Zou Min's heart and lungs stopped, her pupils contracted, and she called out her name in an incredulous tone: "Yan Shui Yi?!"

She could hardly believe her eyes, yet, there stood a living, breathing Yan Shuiyi right in front of her!

How can this be? !

The Yellow Python family, together with the mountain demons, has been searching day and night for the whereabouts of the Yan Shui family, but so far they have found nothing.

As it turns out, the truth has come out: Yan Shuiyi was actually hiding in my house!

In my family's small courtyard, belonging to this son-in-law?!

The immense emotional impact left Zou Min's mind blank for a moment. Although she was only stunned for a split second, she quickly regained her senses.

However, in that instant, she lost her chance to dodge.

Yan Shui made his move.

The three-foot-long sword in her hand was as smooth as autumn water. She swung it forward lightly, but in an instant, endless cold light gushed out and engulfed Zou Min's entire body!

"what--!"

The latter snapped back to her senses and let out a piercing scream. At this moment, she didn't care about anything else in order to survive. Her body transformed back into its original form in the green smoke, just to dodge Yan Shuiyi's sword!

Unfortunately, the cold light still sliced ​​through her body, instantly splitting her in two. Her one-meter-long body and thirty-centimeter-long tail were left on the ground, while her seventy-centimeter-long upper body turned and desperately fled towards the sky!

Blood splattered behind her; the faster she flew, the more blood she lost. But at that moment, she couldn't care less about anything else; only one thought occupied her mind: to escape for her life and survive!

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, all her potential was unleashed, and for a moment she was even faster than Ye Jinglan, rushing straight towards her husband: "Run—!"

Yan Shui immediately took flight on her sword and gave chase. In the sky, the yellow python and the giant eagle, who were fiercely attacking the weakened Ye Jinglan and letting out a furious rage, both turned their heads to look down upon hearing this, and then their expressions changed drastically!

What's that woman doing here?!

Although they came under the guise of "hunting down Yan Shuiyi," deep down, she was the last person they wanted to encounter. At this moment, they were all terrified. The giant eagle, in particular, bluntly cursed, "Didn't you say our opponent this time was only an unknown late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator? Why did we actually run into Yan Shuiyi?!"

Huang Mang couldn't answer. Looking at his wife's body, which was cut in half, the doubts that had just risen in his heart were dispelled. He realized that this was not a trap for them. They had simply stumbled upon Yan Shuiyi's hiding place!

Damn it, I was just using the pretext of searching for Yan Shuiyi to make some extra money, how could I be so unlucky as to run into this killer!

He cursed inwardly, but it was too late to say anything now. Ye Jinglan's own abilities were already difficult for them to deal with, and now with Yan Shuiyi added to the mix, their defeat was inevitable!

Immediately, the hundreds-of-meters-long python made a decision and roared, "Retreat! I'll cover your retreat!"

As he spoke, he faced Yan Shuiyi directly, trying to stall her for a few dozen seconds to buy time for his people to retreat.

But then, the latter unleashed a sword strike, the soaring azure sword light seemingly capable of splitting the sun and moon. Sensing the power of that sword strike—enough to cut him in two—the giant python didn't hesitate for a second. It abandoned its promise to cover the retreat and turned to flee faster than anyone else!

Chapter 128 To Make a Date or Not?

As a result, the young snake demons in the Yellow Python family were forced to become the rearguard!

The sword strike aimed at the giant yellow-scaled python missed its mark. Yan Shuiyi did not pursue it relentlessly. Instead, he chanted an incantation, and the longsword in his hand split into two, then into four, then into eight. Eight flying swords shot out, striking each of them, and none could escape.

Snake demons in the late and middle stages of Foundation Establishment are relatively easy to deal with; the power of this sword strike is not too great, and even if they are hit, they can still continue to escape.

The four snake demons who were in the early stage of Foundation Establishment fell to the ground with cries of pain after being hit. Some died on the spot, while others were not far from death.

Thus, the Huangmang family not only gained nothing, but also paid a heavy price with the loss of four promising young talents in the early stages of Foundation Establishment.

The battle had ended, and there was no more turmoil. Yan Shui let out a breath, her tightly furrowed brows, which had been filled with murderous intent, gradually relaxed. She then turned to look at Ye Jinglan in the storm, and softly asked, "Are you alright?"

Seeing that the crisis had been averted, Ye Jinglan dispersed the surrounding endless storm and focused on using her spiritual power to suppress the toxins in her body.

She looked at the woman in front of her, her eyes still filled with fierce fighting spirit even though she was poisoned.

Yan Shui Yi.

Although I don't know why she's hiding in my house, or what the consequences will be, but...

"Shall we have a spar sometime?" she suddenly said, extending an invitation to Yan Shuiyi to fight. The latter was taken aback for a moment, sensing the fluctuations of spiritual energy emanating from her, but did not refuse: "Let's talk about it another time. Right now, the most important thing is your injuries."

As she spoke, she sheathed her sword and leaned closer, chanting incantations. With her left hand, she made several hand gestures, and a gentle spiritual energy was then channeled into Ye Jinglan's body.

Her beautiful brows furrowed, and then her tone carried a hint of apology: "I don't know the incantation for antidote. I did see a method for curing the poison of the green snake in the sect many years ago, but I didn't have time to learn it..."

"This is the only way I can use to seal your wound first. You'll have to figure out the rest yourself."

Ignoring the deadly poison in her body, Ye Jinglan stared at her and smiled gently: "It's a deal. I'll come find you to spar another day when I'm healed!"

Yan Shui smiled and, seeing that she was still in such good spirits, felt that she should be alright. She breathed a sigh of relief and her mood lightened: "Okay, it's a deal."

No sooner said than done, the two exchanged words in the blink of an eye. Then, Zhu Yunqing's body transformed into a wisp of green smoke and appeared high in the sky, standing side by side with Ye Jinglan.

She took her older sister's arm, her voice filled with anxiety: "Big sister, how are you?"

"It's alright, hehe." Ye Jinglan laughed, appearing quite carefree. "Yan Shuiyi already agreed that once I'm healed, we should spar together!"

Zhu Yunqing rolled her eyes upon hearing this: "What time is it? All you can think about is fighting and sparring, you..."

Before she could finish speaking, she glanced at Yan Shuiyi beside her, her feelings extremely complicated.

Unlike Ye Jinglan, who is currently in a state of high excitement despite being poisoned and too lazy to think about anything else, she is now in a disheveled state, but countless thoughts are growing in her mind.

Why is Yan Shuiyi here?

She overheard our conversation and should now know that the eldest sister is not actually human, and that many members of her family are demon cultivators.

Will she report this? What will those human supremacists in the Qingyun Sect think?

What is she thinking herself?

We've already thoroughly offended that python's family; what future do we have to take...?

Zhu Yunqing had many worries and concerns, but Yan Shuiyi didn't seem to have thought about so much: "Let's go down to the ground first, and then I'll talk to you slowly."

As she spoke, she came over, reached out and took Ye Jinglan's arm, and went down with her. The latter was very dissatisfied, shouted "I can fly by myself", shook off their arms, and rode the storm herself, landing first in Yun Chu'an's courtyard.

Now that they had been exposed, the remaining people no longer hid and walked out of the room openly, looking at Ye Jinglan and the others who had fallen with complicated expressions.
