Ihe tent.

  Li Qiushui's virginity was broken, and cultivation was shattered, and her level had fallen to the seventh yer of Qi Refining.

  But Lin Hao seized the opportunity and broke through to the ninth yer of Qi Refining!

  Seeing his senior sister's despo and sorrowful expression, Lin Hao said, "Senior Sister, I'll avenge you!"

  "Don't go..."

  Li Qiushui instinctively reached out to grab Lin Hao's wrist.

  "Junior Brother, that demoness is at the Great Perfe of Qi Refining; you 't defeat her."

  Boom!

  Lin Hao revealed a hint of his ninth-yer Qi Refining aura, speaking in a deep tone, "Senior Sister, I'm at the ninth yer of Qi Refining too!"

  Li Qiushui was utterly shocked. How did Junior Brother Lin suddenly bee a ninth-yer cultivator?

  Just now, she wasn't fully scious, and Lin Hao had iionally trolled the otion of his breakthrough to avoid dete, so even Li Qiushui didn't know he had reached the ninth yer of Qi Refining.

  A flicker of guilt passed through Lin Hao's eyes as he softly said, "Senior Sister, I hid it from you before. Before participating in the Demo Hunting petition, I was already at the eighth yer of Qi Refining.

  Moreover, my physique is someecial... After being with Yueming and you, I've broken through to the ninth yer of Qi Refining."

  So that's how it is... Li Qiushui's eyes were filled with plex emotions. The young man she had led onto the path of cultivation had suddenly bee a high-level Qi Refining cultivator.

  "Senior Sister, the poison has beeralized, and I've reached the ninth yer of Qi Refining. I avenge you!"

  Lin Hao said fidently.

  Li Qiushui was surprised that both of their poisons had been cured, likely due to Junior Brother's special physique.

  "Junior Brother, that demoness has long reached the Great Perfe of Qi Refining, and you've just broken through to the ninth yer. In a direct frontation, you're no match for her!"

  "To defeat the demoness, we must catch her off guard!"

  Lin Hao nodded, agreeing with his senior sister's reasoning.

  He calmed himself, preparing to discuss the details of an ambush with his senior sister.

  ...

  Outside the tent.

  Cui Qing'er propped her fair , watg her subordinates t the demon cores they had snatched from Lin Hao.

  "Master, the t is done. We've made a huge profit!"

  A man with triangur eyes said excitedly.

  Cui Qing'er nodded coldly.

  Then she looked towards the tent, where it was now silent. "Bitch couple, if you're done, get out here!"

  Rip!

  Cui Qing'er decisively raised her delicate hand, sending out a streak of light that tore the tent apart.

  A smirk pyed at her lips, her voice as melodious as an oriole's song, yet her words were as sharp as a hawk's talons.

  "This kid is really fast, Li Qiushui. You must not be satisfied. Should I find a few more for you?"

  "Vile... woman, don't bully my senior sister!" Lin Hao pretele, his voice weak.

  "Oh, still proteg your master, are you? I'm bullying your senior sister. What you do about it?"

  Cui Qing'er lifted her slender leg, striding over to Li Qiushui.

  She raised her hand, about to sp Li Qiushui.

  "Wretched repare to die!!"

  Now! Lin Hao suddeed, his fist ed in spiritual energy, striking directly at Cui Qing'er's chest!

  Her pupils shrank, clearly not expeg the supposedly poo have the strength to attack.

  Moreover... he was at the ninth yer of Qi Refining!

  Didn't Li Xunran say he was only at the peak of the seventh yer?

  The woman had no time to question, hurriedly pulling out a talisman.

  "Golden Light Shield!"

  She shouted, and a shield of golden light formed in front of her.

  Boom!

  Lin Hao's fist smashed into it, the fierce force shattering the golden shield.

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  After breaking the enemy's shield, Lin Hao's punches rained down on the woman's chest like a storm!

  The woman was severely injured, spitting mouthfuls of blood like a cuck tears of blood.

  Human strength has its limits. After a wave of attacks, Lin Hao's punches lost their vigor.

  This gave the woman a ce to catch her breath, and she quickly retreated two feet.

  Cui Qing'er's face was filled with anger. What a ing boy, daring to ambush me.

  "Brat, you've doo anger me!"

  She circuted her spiritual energy, her slender fingers flig tinuously, sending specks of powerful golden light shooting towards Lin Hao.

  Uedly, even after losing the initiative and being heavily ihis woman still had such means. Lin Hao was surprised, dodging with great agility.

  Thud, thud, thud!

  The golden light struck thick tree trunks, creating finger-deep pits, the spiritual energy lingering.

  Lin Hao was even more astonished by the woman's formidable power, her hasty attack still pag such a punch.

  His gaze turned serious, hands gathering spiritual energy, his voiing like thunder.

  "Fme Bde!"

  Immediately, a bde wreathed in fmes appeared before him, scorg the air.

  "Go!"

  The Fme Bde sshed towards Cui Qihe full-force strike of a ninth-yer Qi Refining cultivator, fast as lightning.

  Fag the enemy's stro attack, Cui Qing'er was both shocked and angry, relutly pulling out anolden Shield Talisman.

  The Fme Bde collided with the golden shield, only causing a crack to appear, but not breaking it.

  At least it was blocked. The woman sighed in relief, but the enemy's attacks surged like a tide once more.

  Lin Hao, aiming for a swift victory, poured all his strength into each move, scattering talismans as if they cost nothing.

  Having ihe oppo with a surprise attack, he pressed the advantage, overwhelming the woman.

  Cui Qing'er's group wao help, but Li Qiushui quickly called her people to intercept.

  Seeing a ce to turide, the four who hadn't dared to resist before now decisively joihe fight.

  Immediately, the two groups cshed in a chaotic battle.

  "Senior Sister, catch!"

  Lin Hao tossed his talisman box to Li Qiushui.

  Cui Qing'er was startled. This brat still had the energy to pay attention to the outside?

  Bang, bang, bang!

  Lin Hao's keen sense for battle allowed him to seize the moment of Cui Qing'er's distra, unleashing three waves of puhat made her cough up blood repeatedly.

  Meanwhile, with Lin Hao's talismans, the senior sisters gradually gaihe upper hand over Cui Qing'er's subordinates.

  Smack!

  Lin Hao suddenly stepped forward, log the woman's throat with one hand, a jade-green dagger pressed against her chest.

  "This poison es from the Five-Step Red S's lethal upon tact. Even if you're at the Great Perfe of Qi Refining, without a Clear Spirit Pill, you won't st long."

  Hearing this, the woman dared not struggle further.

  At this moment, Li Qiushui dragged Li Xunran by the hair, like pulling a dead dog, slowly walking over.

  Li Qiushui stepped gracefully, looking at Cui Qing'er with disdain.

  "Junior Brother, she's yours. Avenge me."

  "..." Lin Hao.
