99: Who says women are inferior to men?

Young Master Ling Xiao wore a look of mockery on his face. "Heh, what big words!"

"I Cultivate the Flame Demon True Art, the number one Cultivation Technique of the Purple Flame Demon Sect in the Vajra Realm. I have already reached the state of Perfection, and I am invincible among those of the same rank. What do you have to fight me with?"

To Cultivate the Flame Demon True Art, one's Physical Body must be tempered by raging fire, absorbing fire-attribute energy to enhance the strength of the Physical Body, allowing it to withstand the strikes of High Grade blades and swords.

Those at the Peak of the Vajra Realm of the same level could not even last three moves against him before being beaten to death.

"You'll know once you try!"

Fu Yunxuan's eyes turned cold as she leaped forward.

A flash of blade light flickered, and her entire figure transformed into a blurred phantom, charging towards Young Master Ling Xiao. Boom!

Young Master Ling Xiao's expression tightened. This girl had some skill; he would need to use his real ability to suppress her. His palms grew scorching hot.

Without any wasted movement, he struck out with a palm.

"Scarlet Fire Palm!"

The powerful palm force destroyed all the flowers, grass, and trees in its path.

"Strong!"

"Extremely strong!"

"What a terrifying palm force!"

Sikong Miaoyin's willow-leaf eyebrows arched high, and her breathing became rapid. With such powerful might, a single palm strike would likely be enough to annihilate her dozens of times over.

"Come here. This Thousand-Man Commander's shoulders are sore; give me a massage," Chu Jiang said.

"Ah... me?" Sikong Miaoyin's delicate body trembled, and she asked uncertainly.

"Who else but you? Hurry up!"

"You're standing there blocking this Thousand-Man Commander's view, so I'm giving you something to do!" Chu Jiang said, speechless.

"Oh..."

Sikong Miaoyin bit her lower lip lightly, her brows furrowed. A look of reluctance appeared on her stunningly beautiful face, but she could not resist.

She moved her graceful figure slightly, each step appearing so heavy and slow, as if there were a weight of a thousand jun beneath her feet.

"Sect Leader!"

The high-ranking members of the Hundred Flowers Sect clicked their tongues, only able to stare blankly, not daring to act rashly. They had just sent away a pack of wolves, only to welcome a fierce tiger.

Sikong Miaoyin approached gently, a fragrance like orchids and musk lingering in the surroundings, intoxicating those nearby. Her beautiful eyes revealed resentment and helplessness. She extended her jade fingers, which were like mutton-fat jade, and placed them on his shoulders.

She had never learned such techniques, nor had she ever massaged anyone, let alone a man.

Her hands trembled, and she was completely unable to control the strength and rhythm.

One moment she was kneading the same spot randomly, and the next, she was suddenly jumping to another place to pat it nonsensically. Movements that should have been soothing became stiff and awkward in her hands.

"Are you scratching an itch for me? Use some strength and massage properly!"

Chu Jiang frowned and could not help but shake his head. This technique was more than a grade worse than Fu Yunxuan's; it was like the difference between heaven and earth.

If Fu Yunxuan scored ten points, then Sikong Miaoyin would score at most three, and that was just a bonus for her looks; she had zero technical points.

"Forget it, this will have to do!"

Chu Jiang turned his gaze back to the battlefield between the two.

He wouldn't be enjoying any technique, so he could only appreciate her stunning beauty to rest his eyes.

This woman had a touch of cold nobility amidst her charm.

She was truly attractive.

You could say that these Jianghu sect disciples didn't act like decent people, but you couldn't say they had poor taste; none of the women they set their eyes on were ugly. They were all top-tier.

...

On the battlefield directly in front of the Qingya Residence, the two had already exchanged a dozen moves.

"Little beauty, just be a good girl and become my concubine. That guy Chu Jiang is just a violent maniac. What's so good about following him? He's not even half as handsome as me."

Young Master Ling Xiao said. As the heir to a major sect, he was naturally well aware of Chu Jiang's actions in Yunzhou. Whenever he caught someone, it was violent, bloody torture, beating people into a pulp of flesh; he was practically a humanoid tyrannosaurus.

For a great beauty to be with him would be such a waste. Beauties were meant to be cherished, not to be involved in fighting and killing. This was his consistent motto.

"You think you're worthy of comparing yourself to my Master? You are ten thousand times worse than him!"

"No matter which aspect it is, he is better than you, understand?" Fu Yunxuan said disdainfully.

"You..."

He is better than you, he is better than you. These words kept appearing in his mind. Young Master Ling Xiao was so enraged that his anger surged to his heart. What a man fears most is having someone say another man is better than him in front of the woman he likes; this was simply trampling on his dignity.

"Woman, you have successfully angered me!"

His right palm began to heat up rapidly, turning red and scorching, shimmering with light.

"Flame Demon God Palm!"

Rumble!

The might of the Flame Demon God Palm was several times stronger than the previous Scarlet Fire Palm.

"Two blades, and I will defeat you!"

Fu Yunxuan took a step forward, her figure elusive. Suddenly, the Demon Suppression Blade emitted the sound of a hundred beasts roaring in unison, causing the Divine Souls of almost everyone present to tremble.

Gold-Inlaid Demon Suppression Blade!

Swish!

The blade light flashed past, causing Young Master Ling Xiao's Divine Soul to experience a momentary stagnation.

This single blade strike actually made him feel a threat to his life.

Between life and death, there is great terror.

Young Master Ling Xiao's Flame Demon True Art roared, attempting to break through the blockade of the Gold-Inlaid Demon Suppression Blade.

However, before he could break through, the second blade had already arrived.

Monstrous Saber Qi poured out from Fu Yunxuan, transforming into a blade that suppressed everything.

Pfft!

Young Master Ling Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes dazed, blood continuously overflowing from the corners of his mouth.

He knelt on one knee.

"Little girl, to be able to injure me to this extent, you can be proud of yourself. But to completely defeat me, that is not enough. My Flame Demon True Art has reached Perfection."

"You can defeat me, but you cannot severely injure me!" Young Master Ling Xiao sneered.

He became increasingly satisfied in his heart; such a girl would be exciting to conquer.

The twenty-seven concubines at home had already been trained by him to be completely obedient.

It was no longer interesting. Even if he asked them to pretend to be disobedient, it was obviously fake at a glance; in their hearts, they dared not defy him.

"Is that so?" Fu Yunxuan drew a purple-gold whip from behind her and lashed out fiercely at Young Master Ling Xiao.

"This..." Young Master Ling Xiao frowned; he could feel that this purple-gold whip was of a High Grade.

Before he could think.

Swish! Swish!

Blood splattered from Young Master Ling Xiao's hands and legs. The purple-gold whip directly broke through the defense of the Flame Demon True Art, dyeing his entire Physical Body red.

"A top-grade whip weapon that specifically breaks the Physical Body!"

Damn it, this Chu Jiang was actually quite generous. Whip weapons were rare to begin with, and top-grade whip weapons were even rarer, yet he had actually gifted this woman a top-grade whip weapon that specifically broke the Physical Body.

"This whip is for your filthy language towards me... This whip is for your disrespect towards my Master... This whip is for your contempt for the Demon Suppression Division..."

"Ah..."

"Oh..."

Young Master Ling Xiao kept screaming in agony. The Flame Demon True Art had its defense completely broken and could not withstand it at all; almost his entire body was whipped to shreds.

Before the battle began, almost no one thought Young Master Ling Xiao would lose. As one of the seven major sects of Yunzhou, how could the strength of the heir to the Purple Flame Demon Sect be simple?

And Fu Yunxuan, a woman, would have been lucky to last a few moves against him.

After the battle began, everyone was shocked.

Seven words simultaneously popped into everyone's minds: "Who says women are inferior to men!"

But gradually, Young Master Ling Xiao's state changed. Was he... laughing?
