79: The Virgin Mary
Late at night, on Water Mountain, Li Ye set up a house in an empty spot using some Materials purchased from the trading market.
He had just had a good conversation with Ning Jiuxiao, and now she was fast asleep.
Xiao Yan had already gone to the ranked match arena; generally, it refreshed at midnight, which Li Ye was not surprised by.
Although this was his first night in a Secret Realm, he wasn't overly cautious; with three powerful Blood Ghosts protecting him, plus his own solid strength, it was the other two Blood Ghosts who should be wary.
Li Ye clicked to start a ranked match without a second thought.
After three consecutive wins, Li Ye encountered an unexpected person.
【Eternal Night vs. Saint Mother, Countdown…】
"Saint Mother, this nickname is also frequently seen on the leaderboard; she and Black Gentleman are dark horses from the same period, and their combat power closely follows Xiao Yan, Solomon, and others…"
The light screen dissipated.
Next, a shapely figure came into Li Ye's view.
This was a woman with golden hair draped over her shoulders, clad in magnificent golden armor. Her figure was graceful and elegant, as if she had stepped out of a myth.
And at her slender waist, a greatsword, the same size as the Blood Ghost Heavy Sword, was suspended!
This greatsword was entirely a dazzling white, making one's heart palpitate, as if forged from countless brilliant stars. Its blade shimmered with a cold light; just one glance was enough to feel its unyielding sharpness.
Not only that, but in her fair, jade-like hand, she tightly clutched a mysterious staff.
This staff also emitted a golden-white glow, with dense, strange runes carved into its body. These runes were like nimble little sprites, continuously leaping and dancing, seemingly containing endless mysteries and power.
At this moment, Saint Mother was staring intently at him, her gaze like a torch.
"The renowned Eternal Night, I've long admired you."
After Saint Mother finished speaking, her staff tapped the ground, and a golden-yellow Tiger Yao Beast appeared out of thin air before her.
"So that's how it is. As expected of the top Summoner."
Speaking of Summoners, Xiao Luolin in Li Ye's team was one, but her ranking on the global leaderboard wasn't very high.
She could only summon a few Mad Demons that were not very useful; they were not only ugly but also vulgar.
Now, her combat style involved using the Ice Spirit Rod Li Ye gave her and Ice-attribute Divine Abilities.
Occasionally, she would also use the pocket money Li Ye provided to buy useful items from the trading market.
【Ding! Two-Star Medium Grade Yao Beast detected: Fei Yao Tiger. The Fei Yao Tiger is irritable and highly aggressive. Males are larger, and females are smaller.】
However, Saint Mother wasn't finished; she continued to tap the ground with her sacred white staff.
Suddenly, nine more Fei Yao Tigers appeared before them.
"Being able to summon ten Two-Star Medium Grade Yao Beasts at once might be strong compared to other Summoners, but as the top Summoner, is this all you can do?"
Li Ye provoked her indifferently.
He vaguely felt that Saint Mother was a bit stiff; to be precise, her emotional and intellectual intelligence were not high.
Compared to the charming Xiao Luolin and Xiao Yan, she was far too lacking.
Although Xiao Yan was also an annoying tsundere, she knew her limits.
"Hmph, stinky man, bite him to death, my little tigers!"
Saint Mother coldly snorted and shouted.
She was also very tall, about two meters, a head taller than Li Ye.
More importantly, she was very arrogant, a different type from Xiao Yan's slight tsundere.
She, Buddha Dragon Child, Li Ye, and Black Gentleman were all kings of their respective large regions and had established Sect forces.
The force she established was called the Women's Sect.
As the name suggests, it aimed to create a Sect exclusively for little fairies.
Before her Transmigration, Saint Mother had severe misandry. Now, at thirty-two, she was still a maiden.
After her Foundation Establishment Breakthrough, her age appeared even younger, looking as if she had just turned eighteen.
Facing the tiger pack that was besieging him, Li Ye did not move. Instead, he circulated his Blood Demon Skill and condensed blood spears in his hands.
At this moment, from the perspective of those ten tigers, Li Ye was completely enveloped in a bloody aura, and his pair of crimson eyes were filled with savagery, as if getting closer would mean death.
The leading Fei Yao Tiger, known for its violent temperament, suddenly whimpered and stopped its steps.
The Fei Yao Tigers behind it, seeing that the first summoned one dared not move, quickly slammed on their tiger paws, then whimpered together.
Saint Mother saw that Li Ye was just standing still, and her summoned tiger cubs were scared stiff. She quickly shouted:
"Fei Yao Tigers, what are you doing? You are the Yao Beasts I summoned! Obey my command and bite this man to death!"
But it wasn't the Fei Yao Tigers that moved; it was Li Ye.
Li Ye flashed before the ten Fei Yao Tigers, bringing his hand down like a knife.
Ten large tiger heads were instantly severed.
However, at this moment, several Dragon shadows flashed, heading straight for Li Ye.
No, to be precise, they were Flood Dragons, reaching the Two-Star Peak Grade.
But Li Ye still unleashed his Perfection-grade Yin Wind Swordplay, chopping those Flood Dragons into minced meat.
Perhaps it was because the number of Yao Beasts she could control was limited, or perhaps it was due to anger.
At this moment, Saint Mother's face was flushed red.
"Dead man, all men must die!"
Saint Mother shouted again.
However, she quickly became flustered, simply because Li Ye had already used his Cloud Stepping Footwork to appear before Saint Mother with ghost-like speed.
Then, under Saint Mother's flustered gaze, Li Ye fiercely twisted the armor on her chest, revealing a fair glow.
"Hmph…"
The next moment, Li Ye instantly killed her with a single strike.
"This is the consequence of insulting me."
At this moment, within the Thirtieth Great Region, in a magnificent golden palace, Saint Mother was teleported back. She still lowered her head with a lingering fear, unable to see her toes.
But she placed her hand under her armor, her expression exceedingly grim.
"This armor is unusable now… Li Ye, just wait, I will lead my Women's Sect to utterly crush your forces!"
As a Saint Mother, true to her name, she had gathered all the women in this Thirtieth Great Region as much as possible and provided them with stable lives.
During the Yao Beast tide, she also fought at the very front, so her score was not low.
After that, Li Ye's battles included an encounter with Black Gentleman, whom he, of course, thoroughly taught a lesson.
Finally, around two or three in the morning, Li Ye finished the arena matches.
At this point, on the entire ranked match leaderboard, there was finally no longer a tie for first place.
He had defeated everyone on the leaderboard except himself and Tyrant Dragon Warrior at least once. He now had 880 points.
The second place was Saint Mother and Black Gentleman, with 850 points.
They had lost the ten bonus points from a ten-win streak, plus a 20-point difference, bringing the current difference to 30.
The third and fourth places were also familiar faces.
Although Tyrant Dragon Warrior had not been defeated by Li Ye, he had been defeated by others.
