Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 1024: Revised: 60 Both Sides Suffer

Chapter 1024: Revised -60 Both Sides Suffer

How do you defeat a puppet?

The answer is unsolvable.

Puppets do not fear pain or fatigue. Trying to conquer them is like trying to tire out a tractor. Thus, Yan Yu didn’t waste any extra energy on the puppet, even though Ami was indeed beautiful and delicate.

Enchantress, fight me head-on!

Yan Yu was fighting valiantly when he suddenly sensed something was wrong. He then realized that the enchantress in front of him was not real. Zhao Yuanzhen had somehow swapped herself with the puppet using the Gold Cicada Shedding technique.

Dammit, did all my attacks just now land on the puppet?

More horrifying than missing his killer move was that Yan Yu couldn’t tell the puppet from the real person anymore.

The enchantress and the puppet began to switch places around Yan Yu at high speed. Sometimes in front, suddenly behind, to the left in an instant, and then to the right, all the while laughing crisply from identical cherry lips:

“Haha, you thief! Can you tell if I’m the real one or the puppet?”

Yan Yu quickly realized that it wasn’t Zhao Yuanzhen using some powerful illusion technique; he was simply too exhausted, his condition far from peak.

He stepped into the Cloud Dividing Eight Trigrams Step, picked a target at random, and launched a fierce attack.

The target didn’t dodge or evade, instead, she welcomed his attack with a charming smile and a brave, fearless pose of “Fire at me.”

Was this really an unafraid puppet, or the enchantress’s body playing tricks, making the illusion real or fake?

Yan Yu didn’t hesitate. Since he couldn’t tell the real from the fake, he decided to kill them both!

Seeing his indiscriminate attacks, Zhao Yuanzhen chuckled in her heart: “Out of tricks, huh? You’re alone; do you think you can fight me and the puppet together?”

She forgot that during previous team training, Yan Yu managed to barely defeat all four of them. Now, although there was an extra puppet with unlimited health, she couldn’t endure taking damage herself.

One hour later, with an incredulous look, Zhao Yuanzhen discontentedly fell.

Her body twitched slightly, almost completely exhausted, as she watched Yan Yu stagger away, as if her soul had left her body.

“No… why… I’m not convinced!”

“Just a few more minutes and I could have disarmed him! Dammit, why…”

Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and the enchantress’s eyes deepened:

“The accomplishment need not be mine; why should I wield the knife myself?”

Though she had no strength left to move, her puppet Ami, controlled by her Divine Consciousness Residence, did. With a thought, Ami sensed her intention and nimbly bypassed her, picking up the phone beside the pillow.

She called Xie Ruoxi.

————————

Since forming her core, Xie Ruoxi’s True Yuan had explosively increased to terrifying levels.

Immeasurably deep, it was indescribable!

Lab equipment couldn’t measure her limits, so they brought in a giant True Yuan external storage device for her to try charging it up.

Finding the process boring, Xie Ruoxi got a computer to play on while the device drew True Yuan from the patches fixed to her acupoints for an entire afternoon, yet there was no sign of her dantian depleting.

Just after finishing a game, she saw a call from Sister Zhao and answered it.

“Ruoxi, help me,” came the voice of Ami the puppet.

“Who are you?” Xie Ruoxi asked, puzzled, confirming the caller ID.

It really was Sister Zhao’s number.

“I’m the puppet,” Ami replied.

“Can a puppet talk?” Xie Ruoxi was confused, thinking it might be a prank by one of her sisters. “Don’t talk to me; let me speak to Sister Zhao directly.”

“Master can’t,” Ami answered.

“Hmph.” Xie Ruoxi sneered disdainfully, “Who are you trying to fool? This is her phone. How did it end up with you, a puppet pretending to talk to me? Do you think I’m a child?”

Magic Girl Ruoxi didn’t like using her brain much, but she wasn’t stupid enough to fall for such a crude trick.

“Master was defeated by Yan Yu,” Ami said intermittently, “Yan Yu is also nearly done, he needs to be finished off.”

“Tell me where the captain is immediately,” Xie Ruoxi demanded authoritatively.

“This is my lucky day! Encountering a weakened captain today—if I can’t take his head, I’ll change my surname to his!”

With that, she tore off the patches crudely and threw them aside, saying, “I have something to do, we’ll continue later,” and hurried off, leaving the staff bewildered.

Meanwhile, after leaving Zhao Yuanzhen’s room, Yan Yu was weak and unsteady. Even though the enchantress was exhausted, he wasn’t much better off, feeling his limbs as heavy as lead.

A regular cultivator would have collapsed by now. Fortunately, mortal warriors excel at fighting in extreme states, so he could still drag himself back to his room to rest…

Wait! If the enchantress revealed his condition and others came to find him, wouldn’t returning to his room be walking into a trap?

Yan Yu thought, extending his Divine Sense, and sure enough, he saw Xie Ruoxi running over, checking the team meeting room, seeming to search for something, then leaving disappointed.

He immediately turned and left, phasing through the wall to leave the Zhenhai Team’s base, heading towards Tang Xiaolian’s room.

Tang Xiaolian, like me, is exhausted. Her place is the safest!

In the room, Tang Xiaolian had just finished bathing and was chatting with Zhou Hongyu in her pajamas.

“I don’t care if he’s comfortable,” Zhou Hongyu scoffed. “I practically threw myself at him, and I still have to care about his experience?”

“Captain, you can’t think like that,” Tang Xiaolian said with a wry smile. “You’re giving in, he’s giving in too. How do you compete with that? In the end, it’s about who pleases better. Like two restaurants offering free food, the one with better service wins, right?”

“You have a point,” Zhou Hongyu nodded. “But those pretentious actions, I can’t do them. Can you teach me?”

“Yes, yes.” Tang Xiaolian racked her brain for ideas. “Men like to show off. If he hits you and you can fully withstand it, you could pretend to be pushed back, praising him, ‘You’re amazing, I’m almost done for,’ or make some sob noises to make him feel strong.”

“Isn’t that ridiculous?” Zhou Hongyu frowned. “Pretend to be hit by his punch? Wouldn’t he think I’m weak?”

“Captain Zhou, a woman’s weakness is also a weapon,” Tang Xiaolian corrected her. “You’re not trying to conquer his body; you want his heart. Winning fights isn’t enough to capture a man’s heart; sometimes, they value face and dignity immensely, and you might backfire.”

“True.” Zhou Hongyu nodded. “I was being foolish. Go on, I’m listening.”

“Okay, and also…” Tang Xiaolian hadn’t finished when she saw Yan Yu phase through the wall. freёnovelkiss.com

Yan Yu was about to say “Let me stay here for a while” when he saw Tang Xiaolian with Zhou Hongyu—Hongyu? This is bad!

Without a word, he turned and fled, knowing that Zhou Hongyu, like Zhao Yuanzhen, was a predator. Falling into her hands now, he’d be devoured!

Momentarily stunned, Zhou Hongyu immediately charged forward, phasing through the wall in pursuit.

“Yan Yu, stop!”
