This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 852 - 667: Guidance

Even if there was still some spiritual power left in his body, Liang Yi wouldn't need such a long time to recover this time. Unfortunately, using the Sword Gate is even more exhausting than staying up three days in a row to play video games in his previous life.

With his spiritual power completely drained and his Divine Soul greatly depleted, Liang Yi took a full week of recovery under the attentive care of his junior sister before regaining some color in his face.

"Whew, it feels great to be able to walk again..."

Liang Yi stood in the courtyard, twisting his waist and stretching his legs. The lingering feeling of weakness that had been clinging to him finally disappeared, and he could be considered fully recovered now.

Su Youyi stood just behind Liang Yi, her eyes as lively as autumn water, shimmering with a captivating smile.

Looking at her senior brother, who had regained his vitality, Su Youyi felt both happy and a little secretly disappointed. The happiness naturally came from seeing her senior brother regain his energy, while the disappointment was because she could no longer take care of him as meticulously as she had in the past few days.

Su Youyi had never seen her senior brother rely on her so much. It was a strange feeling; it used to be her who relied on her senior brother, and he was the one who had always been accommodating her. But her senior brother, when weak, seemed a bit less mature and steady, and a bit more childlike, giving Su Youyi an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

"No, Su Youyi, you can't be satisfied with such things..."

Su Youyi suddenly raised her hands and patted her cheeks, trying to snap herself out of it.

Although she loved seeing her senior brother depend on her, what she loved most was the senior brother who had always accompanied her since childhood, the one who would always say, "It's okay, I'm here," no matter what happened.

But if her senior brother could occasionally rely on her... that wouldn't be so bad either.

"Hmm? What's wrong with you?"

Liang Yi turned his head to see his junior sister's face blushing, as radiant as a blooming peach blossom.

"Ah? No... nothing..."

Su Youyi quickly looked up, meeting her senior brother's concerned gaze, and instinctively responded.

"Could it be that taking care of me these past few days has left you exhausted?"

Liang Yi approached his junior sister and placed his right hand on Su Youyi's forehead. After probing, he didn't find anything unusual; rather, it seemed like her Divine Soul was quite exuberant.

"No problem at all, senior brother. I'm just feeling very happy..."

Su Youyi pouted, pushing Liang Yi away, indicating that she was really fine.

Although Liang Yi didn't know why his junior sister was suddenly so happy, as long as she was fine, that's all that mattered.

"Oh, by the way, Master Orange, you were at the battlefield between the Demon Clan and the Blood Control Sect commander earlier, weren't you? Did you see Yue Bai?"

Liang Yi suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Yue Bai in the past week. If Yue Bai knew that he was weakened to the point of collapse, she should have rushed over in a panic.

So, Liang Yi directly asked the lazy Master Orange in the courtyard. After all, he was also the Young Master of the Demon Clan, though not a very competent one.

"Oh, that girl, she's being pulled into intense training by my cheap old man and a bunch of Demon Clan experts. Apparently, that girl almost got into trouble in the battlefield before."

Master Orange shook his tail and turned his head to speak.

"Got into trouble!?"

Liang Yi and Su Youyi both froze with concern at the mention.

Yue Bai was like a little sister to both of them, and hearing that she almost got into trouble made them instinctively worried.

"Almost got into trouble!"

Master Orange rolled his eyes, correcting their misunderstanding.

"You both know Yue Bai is a Daoist Practitioner. While her attainments in Daoist Skills are exceptional, if she's caught in close combat, many of her techniques can be easily restrained."

Liang Yi nodded, understanding this point. Yue Bai was the most traditional type of Daoist Practitioner, with each of her Daoist Skills wielding astonishing power. Coupled with the innate bloodline of the Qingqiu Nine Tails, she was a veritable weapon of mass destruction on the battlefield, able to take on multiple enemies alone.

However, the traditional Daoist Practitioner has a rather fatal weakness: they fear close combat. In this epoch, Daoist Practitioners like He Zhiqing typically also trained in Body Cultivation Techniques, so if an opponent attempted to close in for a decapitating strike, they could switch to a combat form and physically counteract!

Although Yue Bai had long considered countermeasures for this, it seemed she still nearly encountered trouble this time?

"That girl is something else. If there were a kill ranking on the battlefield for the cultivators, she'd top the list, killing more Abyss Cultivators by herself than thousands of others combined."

As Master Orange recalled the battlefield scenes, an unmistakable look of wonder emerged in his eyes.

Yue Bai, standing in the Void, with her nine tails swaying, gathered spiritual power as vast as the sea around her. Each tail represented a different attribute of Daoist Skills.

And when all nine tails simultaneously unleashed their full power, the sight was something that left Master Orange in awe to this day: what could be called a torrent of Daoist Skills, this was it.

Countless Daoist Skills so densely packed that their specific forms were indistinguishable were casually wielded by Yue Bai, sweeping them with ease, raining down like autumn leaves into the Abyss Army, inflicting massive casualties.

For a moment, Master Orange thought he was witnessing Su Youyi's River of Sword Intent.

In the absence of intervention from other Ninth Realm cultivators of Great Perfection, Yue Bai single-handedly stopped the Abyss Army's unstoppable momentum and forced them into a continuous retreat out of sheer desperation.

Yue Bai's posture, bestowing all manner of slaughter upon the Mortal World from above, was truly godlike and demonic—resembling a true deity!

However, precisely because Yue Bai was so conspicuous, the Abyss Cultivators chose to target her directly, launching desperate attacks against her.
