292: You are young, don't think too much

Whoosh!

The arrow whistled through the air, its blood-red glow dazzling and its power immense, enough to threaten even a Profound Manifestation Realm expert.

"Interesting!"

Xie Weilou flicked his finger, and as soon as the arrow shot over, he flicked it away.

Boom!

The arrow slammed into a nearby pavilion, reducing it to dust.

"He dodged it!"

Yan Ruyi's smile was sinister. The bow in her hand instantly transformed into a blood-red spear.

She gripped the spear tightly, her aura skyrocketing from the Dao Repository Realm directly into the Profound Manifestation Realm.

"Heh! Even more interesting."

Xie Weilou's smile deepened. Why did he suddenly feel that this little lamb was hiding even more than Yan Wugou?

"Yo! I haven't stretched my muscles in a long time; I'm not used to this power anymore."

The white bone mask on Yan Ruyi's face suddenly turned blood-red, with a strange vertical eye appearing on it, surrounded by many peculiar blood-colored patterns.

Boom!

She flickered, instantly appearing before Xie Weilou, and thrust her spear fiercely at his neck. The speed was incredibly fast, the evil aura sharp, and extremely ferocious.

As the spear came, Xie Weilou flickered, vanishing from his spot and reappearing behind Yan Ruyi. He reached out an arm, seizing Yan Ruyi's neck, and said with a faint smile, "You're quite wicked, young lady, but you still need more practice!"

"Is that so?"

Yan Ruyi's eyes were fierce. She thrust the spear backward, piercing through her own body, aiming for Xie Weilou behind her.

"......"

Xie Weilou released his grip and retreated ten meters. He stared at Yan Ruyi, saying in surprise, "Are you trying to harm yourself? You're so young; don't do anything rash."

Yan Ruyi casually pulled out the spear, her injuries instantly healing. She said with a bloodthirsty smile, "I'm going to beat you to death."

Xie Weilou nodded slightly, smiling, "That's right! Disobedient children must be beaten to death."

He instantly appeared before Yan Ruyi and punched her in the abdomen.

Boom!

The punch erupted, instantly piercing through Yan Ruyi's abdomen, blood splattering out. Yan Ruyi was sent flying a hundred meters, crashing into and breaking a stone pillar in the plaza.

Xie Weilou moved, landing on a stone pillar. He looked down at Yan Ruyi with a gentle smile, "Does it hurt?"

Yan Ruyi stood up straight, casually wiping the blood from her abdomen. Her voice was enchanting and evil as she said, "It really hurts! Even I drool at the taste of this fresh blood."

"Such a tone, it seems it still doesn't hurt enough! I wonder if you'll still be able to speak after I beat you into dust?"

Xie Weilou kicked his foot, and the pillar broke, flying towards Yan Ruyi.

Boom!

Yan Ruyi thrust her spear, blasting the stone pillar apart. She quickly closed in on Xie Weilou, sweeping her spear horizontally, a blood-red light covering everything like a sea of blood, full of fierce power.

Xie Weilou casually reached out, grabbing the spear and dispelling its power. Then, he clenched his left hand into a fist and struck towards Yan Ruyi's chest.

Bang!

Yan Ruyi's body shot out like a cannonball, once again sent flying a hundred meters, smashing a large pit in the plaza, her entire body becoming a bloody mess.

In the large pit.

She only paused for three seconds before slowly standing up.

Xie Weilou asked with a smile, "Are you satisfied now? If it still doesn't hurt, then I'll beat you until you cry for your mommy and daddy."

"It doesn't hurt! Young master, come quickly and beat me to death!"

Yan Ruyi gripped her spear, and a malevolent aura once again permeated, her injuries rapidly recovering.

"Are you that stubborn? Then I'll keep hitting you until you kneel and beg for mercy."

Xie Weilou instantly appeared before Yan Ruyi. He grabbed her by the neck and slammed her downwards.

Boom!

The large pit deepened again. Xie Weilou's power permeated as he unleashed three consecutive punches at Yan Ruyi. Three powerful fist imprints slammed heavily onto Yan Ruyi's body.

Yan Ruyi's skin and bones were shattered, and she lay in the large pit, a bloody mess, even the white bone mask on her face was broken.

Blood hung from the corners of her mouth, and her scarlet eyes were incredibly stubborn, showing no weakness. She said with a smile, "Is that all you've got, young master? You can't even kill me."

"So resilient?"

Xie Weilou raised an eyebrow and punched Yan Ruyi's head.

Boom!

With that punch, Yan Ruyi's head was once again bleeding. Her expression froze, the blood-red light in her eyes dissipated, the malevolent aura on her body rapidly vanished, and her blood-colored hair also turned pitch black.

Buzz!

Suddenly, her eyes turned dark, and a thick black mist permeated her body. A strange pressure emanated from her.

Boom!

Xie Weilou was immediately forced back over ten meters. After steadying himself, he looked at Yan Ruyi with a strange expression. Was this a power of darkness?

This woman was truly bizarre!

Yan Ruyi's body floated up from the large pit, black light permeating, stars twisting, and the sky instantly enveloped in darkness. Her injuries recovered in an instant. She stared at Xie Weilou with indifferent eyes, "Was it you who hit me just now?"

Xie Weilou smiled as he wiped the blood from his fist, "It was just now, and it will be next. I'm hitting you!"

"Arrogant!"

Yan Ruyi uttered two indifferent words. Her dark hair danced continuously, a dark totem appeared between her eyebrows, and her dress turned pitch black.

Boom!

Dark power erupted from her, and the entire town instantly turned to dust.

Whoosh!

Yan Ruyi instantly appeared before Xie Weilou and punched him.

Xie Weilou showed no fear and met her punch with his own.

Rumble!

Their fists collided, and powerful energy swept outwards, causing the ground to crack wildly.

After one punch.

Xie Weilou retreated three meters, while Yan Ruyi retreated ten meters.

Xie Weilou said with a look of surprise, "Your strength is quite good, young lady. To be able to clash with one-tenth of my power is truly exciting. I really want to beat you into dust."

Yan Ruyi: "......"

"You're ruthless."

Her body transformed into a black light, instantly vanishing from the spot.

"Leaving already?"

Xie Weilou raised an eyebrow, but his mind was pondering. What Yan Ruyi had displayed just now were clearly two completely different powers.

One was a malevolent power, and the other was a dark power, both very peculiar.

Moreover, both transformations seemed different from the Yan Ruyi he knew.

"Could it be multiple personalities? Or are there several powerful ghosts hidden inside her body?"

Xie Weilou's face was full of strangeness. This little lamb was truly interesting! He really wanted to open her skull and see what good things were hidden inside.

He looked around. The demon beasts in this small town had already been devoured by Yan Ruyi, so there was no need to stay. He decided to continue to other small towns.

He moved, flying away.

In a flash.

Another hour passed.

Xie Weilou had slaughtered the demon beasts in four more small towns, and the number of souls in his ten thousand souls banner had increased to six thousand.

It was late night now.

It was time to find a place to rest.

In the mountains.

There was a pitch-black inn, with faint candlelight visible inside.

Xie Weilou returned to his original appearance, his hands tucked into his sleeves, walking lazily towards the inn.

"Xie Weilou!"

Just then, a surprised voice rang out.

Xie Weilou stopped and looked in the direction of the voice. Wasn't that the little lamb?

Yan Ruyi, dressed in a goose-yellow long dress, looked clean and very beautiful, with no trace of her previous evil or dark appearance.

"Princess!"

Xie Weilou pretended to be shocked as he looked at Yan Ruyi.

"Hmmph!"

Yan Ruyi lifted her chin and walked proudly towards Xie Weilou, "Young man, the moon is dark, the wind is high, and ghosts roam. There are monsters that eat people. If you encounter an inn in the wilderness, you mustn't enter it easily!"

Xie Weilou quickly said, "The Princess is right."

He then added, "Princess, your complexion seems a bit pale. What's wrong?"

Yan Ruyi awkwardly scratched her hair, "This Princess was hiding in a cave earlier and got beaten up by someone..."
