Transmigrated Into The Arms Of The Heroine Of A Sadistic Novel - Chapter 58

When Qin Changxin launched her offensive, Lin Yanyu was frozen in place.

That blood leopard what had it said through Yang Hengyu?

She seemed to have heard something strange. Why was Xiao Xianyi’s tone so certain? Could it be… he was a reborn person?!

“Clang!”

“Clang, clang!”

Before she could think further, the harsh clanging of weapons rang out continuously. In just a few seconds, Qin Changxin and Yang Hengyu had exchanged over ten moves, and Qin Changxin was about to fall behind!

Seeing Yang Hengyu going straight for the kill, Lin Yanyu had no choice but to focus on the battle in front of her. She swung her floating axe and joined the fight.

She could feel the intense killing intent radiating from Yang Hengyu but it didn’t come from Xiao Xianyi’s aura it was true inner killing intent.

She also understood clearly that right now, both Xiao Xianyi and Yang Hengyu had murderous intent.

Yang Hengyu wanted to kill Qin Changxin, while Xiao Xianyi’s target was her, standing by Qin Changxin’s side. She had to admit, these two villains might actually be compatible they at least didn’t waste time talking before fighting.

“She’s trying to kill us!” After a round of attacks, Qin Changxin retreated while speaking in a low voice.

“The situation has changed; we can’t aim to capture her alive anymore!” Lin Yanyu shouted, snapping her fingers to adjust the Spirit Binding Array into a triangular formation.

From above, a sky high light screen rapidly formed a closed triangular shape, creating a sealed prismatic space from top to bottom.

“Lin Yanyu, what are you doing?!” Zhuang Jingwei’s voice rang out angrily from a distance. “You actually trapped our teammates outside! How can you do this?!”

“I didn’t trap anyone! You guys handle long-range support!” Lin Yanyu shouted back.

Even though Zhuang Jingwei and Feng Xianchen were both Purple Tan-class demon hunters, one was physically weak and unsuitable for much movement, while the other was a pure “reckless rookie.” Joining close combat would only be a liability.

A powerful demon comparable to a Silver Tan class demon hunter is not easy to deal with, even if the one facing them isn’t really Xiao Xianyi himself.

While Lin Yanyu attacked, she didn’t forget to shield Qin Changxin from incoming strikes. In the process, she got injured, and her mage robes were burned by the demon fire. But she was used to fast-paced battles; when her robes failed, she decisively transformed her fur into a hard black armor to cover her skin.

Yang Hengyu seemed to retain some autonomy and wasn’t fully controlled by Xiao Xianyi, yet her movements were still fluid. Whether forming seals, playing the flute, wielding the whip, or parrying and counterattacking, everything was graceful and controlled.

Lin Yanyu recalled the records she had seen at the martial arena: Yang Hengyu had never lost a match. It seemed her reflexes had been honed through countless fights.

Furthermore, any attack that hit Yang Hengyu would take effect, but her wounds would quickly heal as if nothing had happened. How she achieved this “invulnerability” was unknown.

After about half an hour of battle, Yang Hengyu seemed annoyed and suddenly held her jade flute in front of her to block, cutting her fingertips and letting blood drip to the ground as she retreated with Lin Yanyu’s force.

The faint scent of blood changed Lin Yanyu’s gaze. Her Spirit Control sensed a shift in the ground’s temperature, and she hurriedly pulled Qin Changxin back.

“Retreat! She’s using her aura to channel a blood-fire formation” Lin Yanyu hurriedly explained, but before she could finish, a wave of heat surged forward.

Avoiding it completely was impossible, so she instinctively transformed into a huge demon form to shield Qin Changxin.

She knew only too well that this demon fire could kill someone twice over.

The young girl’s endurance was far less than her own previous self; she could not let her come into contact with the demon fire!

The back of Lin Yanyu’s neck felt like it was burning, almost in pain, when suddenly there was a muffled “boom” behind her. A wave of icy air swept in, dispersing the terrifying heat.

Lowering her head, she saw Qin Changxin, whom she had been protecting, forming hand seals. Even in such a short time, her effective spell formation must have cost her greatly.

Unable to endure further, Qin Changxin spat a mouthful of blood, coughing while adjusting her spell to transform the blood into pure ice energy, forming a solid protective barrier that blocked all the demon fire!

“Are you trying to get yourself killed?!” The heavy smell of blood filled Lin Yanyu’s nose. She nearly shouted, using her cat claws to wrap the young girl in her thick fur.

“Cough… you’re the same…” Qin Changxin mumbled, resting on her chest.

She heard the sound of the flute soothing her pain, and the loud explosions from Zhuang Jingwei’s spells. Somehow, the sounds felt oddly familiar, even though today was the first time she had participated in this kind of battle.

Her organs and meridians ached, but Qin Changxin gritted her teeth and, after a short rest, pushed herself up. She threw the Fan of No Regrets into the air, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy to cast an illusion that would trap Yang Hengyu.

At that moment, a thick green mist suddenly appeared in her vision it was clearly poisonous.

Qin Changxin’s heart tightened; Yang Hengyu’s specialty was poison, and her most feared poison spell had finally appeared.

The mist would open up the distance for an attack. Qin Changxin had just formed her thoughts when Feng Xianchen’s wind blades attacked from behind, cutting through the poison mist. But the mist only dispersed for a second before reforming.

Qin Changxin exhaled and cast the unfinished illusion along with the wind spell outward.

She knew the cat had formed a sealed space using the Spirit Binding Array to trap Yang Hengyu. If a dense poison mist contaminated the area, the space could be breached, giving Yang Hengyu a chance to escape.

Although Yang Hengyu didn’t want to retreat, Qin Changxin heard the shouts of other demon hunters approaching. If Yang Hengyu didn’t leave quickly, she would face a dozen Purple Tan-class demon hunters and be caught in a fierce battle.

After casting the fan, Qin Changxin vomited another mouthful of blood and collapsed on the giant mystical cat.

“I’m sorry… I couldn’t help…” she whispered.

“It’s fine. Rest first,” Lin Yanyu interrupted, gently brushing against her. White light glowed on her cat claws as she cast a sleep spell, letting Qin Changxin fall into a deep sleep.

Lin Yanyu clearly saw that the raging demon fire had been mostly extinguished by Qin Changxin’s ice energy. The remaining flames were trapped in the illusion and would not appear for some time.

The young girl had clearly made a great contribution.

Just as Lin Yanyu focused, she heard a sharp whistle; Yang Hengyu’s whip came flying straight at her.

Lin Yanyu calmly used the Fan of No Regrets to block it, then used spiritual energy to hold the fan in the air, creating a strong wind to disperse the poison mist.

While Qin Changxin rested, Zhuang Jingwei and Feng Xianchen launched attacks on Yang Hengyu.

Because of Yang Hengyu’s special status, they used attack type forbidden techniques passed down in their families. Even so, Yang Hengyu negated the attacks, and even when debris flew, it only delayed her slightly.

“Her inner energy orb probably contains the blood of the malicious dragon Yunxi!” Zhuang Jingwei gritted her teeth. “The dragon’s blood contains divine ‘Yuling’ essence. If ingested directly, it can heal severe wounds and grant temporary invulnerability!”

Lin Yanyu recalled the original text mentioning this overpowered advantage.

However, the dragon Yunxi had already been killed by the demon hunter alliance led by Feng Funing before the story began, leaving some blood for the new demon lord Xuan Qing. Somehow, part of that blood ended up in Xiao Xianyi’s hands.

“How long does the blood last?” she asked, shielding Qin Changxin with her body and looking at the floating Zhuang Jingwei.

“…At least three hours,” Zhuang Jingwei said solemnly. “She has both invulnerability and inner energy protection. We likely cannot kill her, nor capture her alive.”

“Ha? Then we’ll have to let her go this time.” Lin Yanyu sneered. “Even with many Spirit Binding Arrays, against a Silver Tan-class demon hunter, we are still far weaker.”

“But reinforcements are here!” Feng Xianchen pointed behind them. “We still have a chance to capture Yang”

Before she could finish, a scream startled her, and she quickly turned to Yang Hengyu.

“Cough… fragile vessel… still needs adjustment,” Yang Hengyu said hoarsely. “Tonight’s farce ends here.”

“Bah! You just want to leave?!” Feng Xianchen’s temper flared. She brought her bamboo flute to her lips, but before she could cast a spell, a blood mist enveloped Yang Hengyu.

The demon hunters were too late. Seeing the situation worsen, Yang Hengyu used blood teleportation to break through the sealed space and completely disappeared from view.

Lin Yanyu ignored the gathered demon hunters and focused on treating Qin Changxin’s internal injuries.

Through their master-servant blood pact, she quickly examined Qin Changxin’s internal condition.

The young girl’s injuries were mostly in her meridians; she likely could not cast spells for half a month.

“Let me through!” Zhuang Jingwei’s voice came as she parted the gathered demon hunters, coming to the demon. Seeing the blood at the corner of Qin Changxin’s mouth, she clenched her fists in worry, knelt down, and felt her pulse.

“Hey! Any questions, come to me!” Feng Xianchen said from a distance. “Don’t disturb them; Master Zhuang is saving her!”

“She’s fine. She just suffered backlash from an emergency spell,” Zhuang Jingwei said, taking out a small vial of medicine. She gave Qin Changxin a pill while reassuring Lin Yanyu. “We’re heading back soon. Let her rest and recover properly.”

“Thank you,” Lin Yanyu replied absentmindedly, her attention still on Qin Changxin.

After stopping the bleeding, Lin Yanyu took out a clean handkerchief, used water condensed with spiritual energy, and wiped the young girl’s face.

When she wiped the blood at the corner of Qin Changxin’s lips, she felt a faint pain in her chest, bending her body involuntarily, her mind buzzing.

So that was it. No wonder in her previous life, the demon hunters raising her forbade her from forming deep bonds.

Watching someone you love seriously injured this feeling… was this painful.
