Transmigrated Into The Arms Of The Heroine Of A Sadistic Novel - Chapter 91

Lin Yanyu never imagined that the barrier formed by the Qing Fang Bell could clearly block the “Blood Leopard’s” demonic flames, yet it could not stop Feng Xianchen’s claws!

She felt a chill in her chest, and then watched Feng Xianchen’s claws rapidly shrink and diminish Feng Xianchen transformed before her eyes into a black cat. Her green, teary eyes stared at her, and the claw that had just attacked her was still smeared with her blood.

Seeing the cat fall straight down, Lin Yanyu instinctively reached out, quickly scooping the cat into her arms. She held it tightly while maintaining the Qing Fang Bell’s barrier, blocking the streaks of blood red lightning from the sky, gritting her teeth, and trying to distance herself from Xiao Xianyi as fast as possible.

“Big sister! Big sister!!” Feng Xianchen cried, raising her paws weakly as a faint healing green light covered Lin Yanyu’s wounds.

The spell that had temporarily transformed her into a demon severed Xiao Xianyi’s control, but at the same time, it sealed most of her spiritual energy to prevent backlash.

Lin Yanyu pressed Feng Xianchen’s small paw and did not speak, nor did she breathe heavily.

She had been completely unprepared for that strike. Fortunately, her body’s self-healing abilities were strong. Even though her chest had been pierced, she had no subsequent injury and could still hold on for a while.

She suddenly felt warmth at the back of her neck Qin Changxin’s presence brushed against her, carrying a faint scent of peach blossoms.

Illusions could not affect Xiao Xianyi, but the illusionary realm could still trap him.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were saving someone?” Qin Changxin said as she treated Lin Yanyu’s injuries within the illusion, her voice low, yet her eyes reddened, “This wound…!”

“It’s nothing.” Lin Yanyu shook her head lightly, speaking softly. “Hurry and have them break the demon clouds. That dark cloud is a ‘Thread Connecting Array’ once completed, everyone in the city will become puppets!”

Qin Changxin’s eyes changed sharply. Just then, Wuanyan Fan returned to the ground. She helped Lin Yanyu sit on the open space, gave her medicine to protect the heart meridian, and said: “I just used the illusion to restrain the ‘Blood Leopard.’ The illusion should last for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, don’t worry.”

Seeing Lin Yanyu nod, she immediately went to discuss with Zhuang Jingwei.

Lin Yanyu expanded Qing Fang Bell’s barrier to cover the entire ground and quickly began healing in a seated position.

Soon, she heard Zhuang Jingwei shout using amplification magic: “The ‘Blood Leopard’ cannot move! Let’s quickly break the demon clouds!”

All the exorcists on the ground were facing the legendary “Blood Leopard” for the first time and didn’t know what to do. Hearing this, they all looked to Zhuang Jingwei. Seeing her holding the family talismans of the Feng, Zhuang, and Qin families, they immediately found a focal point.

They responded promptly. Before long, spiritual energy gathered above everyone’s heads, visibly growing. After charging up, they released an attack. A burst of white light shot straight into the sky, piercing the dark clouds.

The clouds did not dissipate. After the white light disappeared, a warm orange sunlight shone through the gap it created.

However, the sunlight did not last long. Blood-colored lightning appeared in the clouds, and the scattered clouds rushed toward the gap, quickly filling it.

From the original gap emerged a terrifying, enormous beast eye. Instantly, multiple blood-red lightning bolts shot down from it toward the ground. If Lin Yanyu hadn’t raised the Qing Fang Bell’s protective barrier in time, there would have been heavy casualties!

Seeing that the “Blood Leopard’s” attack couldn’t penetrate the barrier, all the exorcists breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly continued their tasks.

All exorcists in the city rushed to help. Under Qin Changxin and Zhuang Jingwei’s command, the ones specialized in offense targeted the demon clouds, while healers tended to the wounded and rescued exorcists and civilians trapped in the ruins.

“Your Majesty!” An exorcist found the fainted Lotus Prefecture ruler, dragged him and the rescued exorcists out, and called out to colleagues. “His Majesty’s dragon body is injured! Doctors, quickly!”

“Ah, there’s a child here! Are they hurt?”

“The child is fine. His Majesty’s spiritual energy protects them!”

The doctors quickly gathered, revived the ruler, and reported the situation.

“Thank you all for your efforts.” The ruler nodded to Qin Changxin and Zhuang Jingwei. “Since you have a way to deal with the ‘Blood Leopard,’ quickly finish it. The rest is under me!”

Lin Yanyu had refined her spiritual medicines and recovered almost fully. She held the cat-form Feng Xianchen and handed her to Zhuang Jingwei, saying to Qin Changxin: “Let’s go!”

She vaguely sensed that success or failure depended on this battle; there could be no more mishaps.

The demon clouds must be destroyed, and the Blood Leopard… must die!

The two of them flew toward Xiao Xianyi with Wuanyan Fan. Lin Yanyu took out talismans, embedding her demonic energy in each, and controlled them to float around Xiao Xianyi.

Xiao Xianyi had just escaped the Wuanyan Fan’s illusion and noticed the talismans. Raising his hand in a claw shape, he slashed at the talismans with fire-infused claw winds to stop them from forming a formation.

Lin Yanyu had practiced the formation countless times. The talismans dodged each attack, quickly settling into their fixed positions. She then snapped her fingers and shouted “Activate!” The talismans connected with demonic energy, and Xiao Xianyi’s movements immediately became sluggish, his eyes showing surprise as he did not expect to be restrained by a few talismans.

“The ruler has activated the defensive formation. You can recall the Qing Fang Bell!” Qin Changxin reminded her from below.

Lin Yanyu nodded. With a thought, the Qing Fang Bell appeared in her hand, the red cord wrapped around her wrist several times.

She immediately shook the Qing Fang Bell. The newly formed barrier enveloped them.

Thunder roared in their ears, blood red lightning fell like rain, looking terrifying, but it could not penetrate the Qing Fang Bell’s barrier, nor harm them in the slightest.

Just as Lin Yanyu raised the defensive barrier, Qin Changxin formed water sigils. Water element spiritual energy entered the talisman formation trapping Xiao Xianyi, immediately producing countless ice spikes, forcing him to the center.

“Hmph, you really think I have no way out?” Xiao Xianyi suddenly spoke. Before the first ice spike hit him, he clenched his fist.

All the ice spikes shattered simultaneously, scattering shards everywhere. Each piece moved away from Xiao Xianyi but was soon trapped again by Lin Yanyu’s talisman formation, rebounding upon contact.

Xiao Xianyi shifted his body, evading the ice shards, and waved his hand. Blood-colored demonic butterflies flew out from his sleeves, aiming for each talisman in the formation.

The butterfly wings carried small flames, clearly meant to burn the talismans. But before reaching them, a sudden gust of wind blew them away.

Exchanging a glance with Qin Changxin, Lin Yanyu stayed in place to maintain the formation and barrier. Once Qin Changxin retracted Wuanyan Fan, she used spiritual energy to lift Lin Yanyu, helping her approach Xiao Xianyi.

Qin Changxin stepped steadily on the spiritual energy stream. With a spin of Wuanyan Fan, she shattered more than ten demonic butterflies. With Lin Yanyu’s protection, she advanced fearlessly toward Xiao Xianyi.

Xiao Xianyi continued to focus on forming the “Thread Connecting Array.” Seeing Qin Changxin rushing alone, he lightly smiled while holding an unconscious orange cat.

“Meeting again, Head of the Qin family,” Xiao Xianyi said, “This life, you’ve lived quite freely.”

Responding to him was Wuanyan Fan, brimming with spiritual energy in a strike. Qin Changxin aimed for the heart of the “Thread Connecting Array,” intending to stop it at its source.

Protecting the orange cat, Xiao Xianyi’s string of eighteen cinnabar prayer beads around his wrist suddenly broke. The beads hovered around him. One enlarged to block Wuanyan Fan, three retained their size and were flung toward Qin Changxin’s protective barrier.

“You’ve never seen your useless sister use this, right?”

As Xiao Xianyi spoke, Qin Changxin heard the Qing Fang Bell barrier emit a crisp “click.”

She immediately retreated. Wuanyan Fan swung, striking away the beads.

“These beads belong to me. I once gifted them to Azhu. Yang Huaisheng took them from Azhu’s corpse as a trophy. After she died, that useless daughter took them as a keepsake.” Xiao Xianyi held one of the beads. “That useless one wasn’t as cruel as you. Even if she hated you, she wouldn’t dare truly harm you.”

Qin Changxin knew he liked to manipulate with words. She focused solely on attacking, dodging the beads while attempting to leave wounds on him.

She quickly formed seals, chanting spells, continuously using water-element magic, interspersed with Wuanyan Fan strikes and illusions, aiming to end the fight quickly.

With their strength, even two against one could not exhaust Xiao Xianyi. Moreover, the demon clouds forming the “Thread-Connecting Array” hadn’t been destroyed yet, proving Xiao Xianyi’s profound inner energy.

During the tussle, their distance constantly changed. Xiao Xianyi never let Qin Changxin get close. Half an hour passed, and neither dealt significant damage.

Observing briefly, Lin Yanyu confirmed Qin Changxin had adapted to the battle rhythm. She gripped the floating axe and struck while Xiao Xianyi dodged Qin Changxin’s attack, hitting his left shoulder.

Qin Changxin’s every attack targeted vital points, but Xiao Xianyi’s demonic energy shield protected most of his body. The shoulder was relatively weak.

Feeling a vibration in her hand, Lin Yanyu realized she had hit bone. She immediately pulled back the axe and kicked the wound area before stepping back, not lingering.

Her strength was extraordinary. Even Xiao Xianyi groaned, falling rapidly until colliding with ruined buildings, dispersing the force into the rubble.

The building collapsed instantly, like tofu breaking. Fortunately, the residents had already evacuated during the first collapse; no one was harmed this time.

Qin Changxin seized the opportunity to strike. Wuanyan Fan collapsed, releasing a hidden poison spike. She shouted and thrust the fan at the area Lin Yanyu had struck.

Xiao Xianyi laughed and vanished, appearing seconds later with the cat elsewhere.

“Good coordination,” Xiao Xianyi said while stroking the orange cat. “I didn’t expect the soul-restored Young Master of the Demon Realm to grow to this level. I underestimated you.”

Seeing his calm demeanor, Lin Yanyu looked at his wounds. They were healing visibly. She summoned new talismans to form another array.

The previous formation had always followed Xiao Xianyi. But judging by his reaction, it seemed the talismans were losing effect; their binding power wouldn’t last long.

Without restraining Xiao Xianyi, the fight would be difficult.

As Lin Yanyu prepared to have Qin Changxin cover her while forming the formation, Xiao Xianyi disappeared. She tightly gripped the floating axe, controlling nearby spiritual energy, cautiously observing.

“Be careful!” Qin Changxin warned, back-to-back with her. “Feng Xianchen was likely taken this way!”

Lin Yanyu nodded and said softly: “I can sense Xiao Xianyi is still here, and… his aura is strengthening.”

Just as she spoke, the sky darkened, the clouds turning blood-red. A vortex formed in the center, and blood colored mist poured down to uncovered areas. It quickly coalesced into a blood red giant beast, its outline indistinct.

“What is that?!” Exorcists on the ground panicked.

“Hurry, gather spiritual energy for an attack!”

“It’s useless! The spiritual energy we released earlier failed. What are these clouds and mist?”

“The Blood… the Blood Leopard is showing its demon form!” Someone shouted in panic. “Run! This city is doomed!
