78: What was supposed to be a friendly sparring match turned into flirting?
Ye You pulled Su Lin's hand, and with a flicker of her figure, the two returned to the top of the cliff.
The enormousCalamity Dragon, which had just woken up from its sleep and was about to get up, now saw Ye You return and was so frightened that it cowered in place, not daring to move.
Ye You did not spare it another glance, merely pulling Su Lin up into mid-air.
"It's really no fun to bully Revered Master with a Body Integration Stage cultivation."
She released Su Lin's hand, her figure drifting backward, suspended in the air, her skirt swaying in the wind.
"Oh? So what do you want to do?"
"This time, I want to have some real fun!"
Her clear voice echoed in all directions.
"If I use my Body Integration Stage cultivation, Revered Master will definitely lose, and that's not fun."
"So I've decided to suppress my cultivation to the same Realm as Revered Master, and then we'll start fighting."
As soon as her words fell, the Body Integration Stage pressure on her instantly dissipated, and her spiritual energy fluctuations rapidly decreased, finally stabilizing at the Late Nascent Soul Stage.
This commotion immediately alarmed the entire Myriad Demon Forest.
Countless powerful auras awakened from various parts of the forest, and figures shot into the sky, gathering towards the direction of the cliff.
"It's Demon Lord's aura!"
"What is Demon Lord doing? Her power... it's dropped to the Nascent Soul Stage?"
"Quick, go see! The other aura... it's a Human Race Cultivator!"
Soon, the bottom of the cliff and the surrounding mountain peaks were filled with dense Yao Race members.
They came in various forms; some were burly giant bears, others were handsome fox demons, but without exception, they all looked at Ye You in mid-air with awe.
When they saw Su Lin confronting the Demon Lord, they instantly felt confused.
Why would their King lower her cultivation to fight a Human Race Cultivator?
Some Yao Race members recognized Su Lin at a glance.
"I know! This human is the one who fought with the Demon Lord before! He seems to be Demon Lord's Revered Master."
"What? He is Supreme Being Su??"
"Over the years, many people claiming to be the Demon Lord's Revered Master have died. Is this one real?"
"Is that the Demon Lord's Revered Master? He feels... so approachable." A nine-tailed fox demon whispered to her companion.
"Yes, he has a very comfortable scent about him, unlike other Human Race Cultivators who are so repulsive."
Su Lin's Physique, which granted him affinity with all Yao Race, was subtly influencing this group of Yao Race members.
Amidst the discussions, the Yao Race crowd suddenly parted, forming a path.
Four graceful figures walked over unhurriedly; they were the four Cat Girls.
As soon as they appeared, the surrounding Yao Race members, even the Soul Transformation Stage great demons, made way for them.
As Ye You's four attendants, their status in the Myriad Demon Forest was not low.
The four Cat Girls were accustomed to the reactions around them. They walked to the very front, found the best spot, then squatted down in unison, their tails casually swishing behind them, ready to watch the show.
In mid-air, Ye You felt the countless gazes cast from below, but she was unconcerned.
Her eyes held only Su Lin.
"Revered Master, are you ready? Disciple is going to make her move now, okay?" She smiled sweetly.
Su Lin stood with his hands behind his back, "Bring it on. Let me see if you can still win after suppressing your cultivation."
Before her words finished, her figure vanished from its original spot.
The next moment, a sharp palm wind struck directly at Su Lin's face.
Su Lin's expression remained unchanged. He stood still, merely raising his right hand casually, his index and middle fingers pressed together, and accurately tapped Ye You's wrist.
Ye You felt a numbness in her wrist, and her fierce offensive instantly disintegrated.
She was startled and used the force to retreat, creating distance.
"Revered Master's reaction is so fast."
"Flashy." Su Lin commented.
"Oh, Revered Master dislikes it, huh?" Ye You said, but her offensive resumed.
This time, she was no longer merely testing.
Countless black and red vines, formed from demonic Qi, coiled around Su Lin from all directions, blocking all his escape routes.
Su Lin still stood in place, neither dodging nor evading.
Just as the vines were about to touch his body, he moved.
He took one step, leaving an afterimage in his original spot.
All the vines passed through the afterimage, hitting nothing.
"Huh?" Ye You's attack missed, and she let out a surprised sound.
"Xiao You, your combat intuition has worsened." Su Lin's voice sounded behind her.
Ye You's body stiffened, and a chill rose from her back.
Without thinking, countless points of light appeared on her tail, and then she swept it backward.
Su Lin's figure shifted slightly, easily dodging.
The fluffy tip of her tail almost brushed past his nose.
"Revered Master, why are you just dodging?"
Ye You missed with her attack and laughed, "Let Disciple hit you once, it won't break anything."
Ye You licked her lips.
"Revered Master, be careful." She charged again.
This time, her speed was even faster, and spiritual energy gathered in her palm.
Su Lin sidestepped.
Ye You changed her palm into a claw, reaching for his collar.
Su Lin raised his hand to block, their wrists touched, making a crisp sound.
"Why is Revered Master's skin so cool? Are you cold? Do you want me to warm you up?"
Ye You's fingertips traced Su Lin's wrist.
Su Lin frowned and shook her hand away.
"Focus."
"I am very focused."
Ye You smiled, but her offensive didn't stop.
A leg sweep aimed at Su Lin's lower body, forcing him to retreat.
Su Lin shifted his feet, advancing instead of retreating, cutting into her center, his elbow striking towards her chest.
Excitement flashed in Ye You's eyes.
She didn't block, instead spreading her arms and pushing out her chest to meet him, "Hit here?"
Su Lin's movement paused, his elbow stopping abruptly.
Ye You took the opportunity to grab his arm, pressing her entire body against him.
"Revered Master can't bear to?"
Her breath brushed against Su Lin's ear.
The Yao Race below watched, dumbfounded.
Su Lin exerted force in his arm, and spiritual energy vibrated.
Ye You was bounced away, flipping in the air before landing.
"No more close combat with Revered Master, let's try Disciple's spiritual energy!"
Several sharp spikes condensed from demonic Qi shot towards Su Lin, not fast, but blocking all escape routes.
Su Lin raised his hand, and a pale golden barrier unfolded.
The spikes hit the barrier, making cracking sounds, and all dissipated.
"Revered Master's Protective Aura is still so sturdy."
Ye You smiled, and with a flicker of her figure, three Clones appeared,fluttering from different directions.
Su Lin's feet didn't move; he merely sidestepped, blocked, and flicked with his fingers.
His movements were concise, each time hitting the weak point of a Clone, and the illusions shattered one after another.
"Not fun."
Ye You pouted, her true body suddenly pressing down from above Su Lin's head, her tail wrapping around his waist, "Got you!"
"Who caught whom, I wonder?" Su Lin smiled faintly.
Then he grabbed her tail and pulled hard. Ye You, following the force, fell towards Su Lin, then wrapped her arms around his neck, falling into his embrace.
Ye You, in Su Lin's embrace, was not annoyed; instead, she tightened her arms, hugging him even closer.
"Revered Master, if you defeat me, how about I give you a reward?"
The Yao Race watching below erupted in an uproar.
Their decisive Demon Lord was actually acting coquettishly in a human's embrace.
"Let go." Su Lin's voice was very calm.
"No." Ye You's tail wrapped even tighter, "Revered Master hasn't defeated me yet, how can it be over?"
Su Lin's free hand pinched the back of her neck.
Ye You's body went limp, and the strength in her arms instantly loosened.
"Revered Master, you're using this move again."
