205: Chapter 205 Lu Xingye: She is purifying the demon with love!

The romantic mood that Qiu Yunan had just cultivated was shattered by that single sentence from Jiang You.

"Pfft—" She couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. That smile was alluring, and even the rainstorm filling the sky seemed to lose its luster in comparison.

"You, even though your strength has grown, your personality hasn't changed a bit."

Qiu Yunan shook her head, her gaze gradually becoming serious, and the thunder around her began to roar violently: "However, this is a battlefield, and Senior Sister won't go easy on you."

"Let me see just how many volts of electricity your current body can withstand!"

"Thunderstorm, Thousand Bird Sharp Spears!"

Boom!

A purple lightning pillar as thick as a water bucket tore through the curtain of rain, carrying the momentum to destroy everything as it headed straight for Jiang You!

Facing this violent attack, Jiang You didn't dodge; instead, he spread his arms and even closed his eyes, a look of ecstasy on his face as if he were about to enjoy a top-tier spa treatment.

"Zzzzt!!!"

The thunder struck Jiang You fiercely, instantly submerging him in purple plasma.

Meanwhile, in the lounge outside.

Lu Xingye, who had been staring fixedly at the screen, was struck as if by lightning when he saw this scene!

He grabbed his hair with both hands, fell to his knees, and let out a heart-wrenching wail:

"No—!!!"

"Senior Sister Yunan! Do not use your pure thunder to touch that demon body fallen into the abyss!"

Tears streamed down Lu Xingye's face, and the little drama in his mind was racing, skipping straight to the finale.

"I understand... I understand everything now!"

Lu Xingye suddenly raised his head, the visible eye flashing with the light of "sudden realization" and "self-moved" emotion:

"Senior Sister knows that if she doesn't take action herself, I would have to draw my blade to face the great demon lord, my former best friend Jiang You!"

"Senior Sister is doing this so I don't have to bear the sin of fratricide!"

"She is using the lightning of love to try and purify the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Qi within Jiang You!"

"She has shouldered all the pain herself! Sob, sob, sob... What a great sacrifice! What deep love!"

Lu Xingye pressed his palms together, two lines of hot tears slowly sliding from the corners of his eyes:

"Senior Sister Yunan, I have truly received your intentions!"

"If this lightning of love cannot wake him, then the final act of righteousness—destroying one's own kin—shall be left to me!"

Beside him.

Gou Fugui pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. Watching Lu Xingye, who was having a breakdown on the floor while crying, he silently moved two steps away.

He took out his phone and sent a message to Teacher Shen Qing:

[Teacher Shen, Old Lu seems to have gone crazy. When you finish your seclusion, I suggest contacting the Magic City Mental Health Center directly. I don't think conservative treatment will work anymore.]

...

Inside the battlefield.

"Zzzzt!!!"

The violent purple lightning pillar bombarded Jiang You without reservation, the blinding electric light instantly illuminating the entire skyscraper rooftop as bright as day.

The wind howled, and gravel flew. In the external viewing hall, many people subconsciously covered their eyes.

"It's over, it's over. He's really going to be charred to a crisp this time!"

"Even with a Tier 3 mid-stage physique, taking Senior Sister Qiu Yunan's ultimate move head-on is too arrogant, isn't it?"

However, inside Jiang You's body, where no one knew what was happening, the Kidneys and Skin were practically ready to pop champagne to celebrate.

"Oh ho! Yes, yes, yes! This is the feeling!"

"This purity! This voltage! It's much more intense than that time under the tree!"

As the Inverse Blood Flow Technique operated frantically, the violent lightning spirit energy, which was enough to electrocute an ordinary Tier 3 martial artist into ashes, was swallowed entirely by that invisible golden vortex of blood energy the moment it touched Jiang You's Skin, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea.

The lightning gradually dissipated. Amidst the smoke, Jiang You stood in place, completely unharmed.

"Hoo—"

Jiang You let out a long breath of stale air, even exhaling a small purple smoke ring from his mouth. A look of extreme comfort appeared on his face:

"Refreshing..."

"Senior Sister, how about another ultimate move with a larger range? My left shoulder still feels a bit uncomfortable."

Qiu Yunan: "..."

Looking at Jiang You, who was completely unharmed and even "ordering" more, a flash of astonishment finally crossed Qiu Yunan's beautiful face, but immediately after, the competitive spirit of a top-tier senior student was completely ignited.

"Alright, since you are so interested, Junior."

Qiu Yunan's lips curled into a dangerous and charming smile, and she reached up to take off the insulating glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"Then, as you wish."

"Boom!!!"

In the sky, a massive bolt of thunder struck straight down, landing on Qiu Yunan.

Her suppressed Supernatural Ability of the lightning element was completely unleashed at this moment!

The purple thunder transformed into a magnificent set of lightning battle armor that clung to her tall figure, and she turned into a purple bolt of lightning, instantly vanishing from where she stood.

"Thunderstorm, Thunder Shadow Slash!"

Fast!

Too fast!

With the enhancement of the lightning, Qiu Yunan's speed even surpassed that of the previous wind-element sword cultivator, Gu Changfeng!

In mid-air, dozens of purple afterimages were left behind, completely surrounding Jiang You from all directions. The lightning filling the sky turned into an airtight electric net, closing in on Jiang You to strangle him!

"So fast!"

"Senior Sister Qiu Yunan is serious! This is her close-combat killing move!"

The audience outside exclaimed one after another.

However, Jiang You, at the center of the electric net, still showed no sign of panic.

"Hum—"

The deep blue Eye of Tianshu quietly opened.

In Jiang You's field of vision, the lightning-fast afterimages and the violent, chaotic electric net were instantly deconstructed into clear spiritual energy trajectories.

"Left... above... behind..."

Jiang You still had his hands in his pockets, his feet moving lightly across the water-logged rooftop.

He didn't use any violent counterattacks, nor did he erupt with that golden blood energy; he simply strolled through the thunderstorm as if taking a leisurely walk.

Sidestepping, ducking, sliding.

Qiu Yunan's fierce lightning whip kick swept past the tip of his nose; that lethal electric hand blade missed, slicing through the air right by his ear.

Jiang You was like someone dancing an elegant waltz in the rain; not only did the lightning filling the sky fail to harm him in the slightest, but it instead became the perfect backdrop for his magnificent solo dance!

"This... what kind of movement technique is this!"

In the broadcast room, Director Ma watched Jiang You's dodge on the screen, which seemed like pre-cognition, his jaw nearly dropping:

"How can he predict so accurately every single time?"

"He hasn't even taken his hands out of his pockets!"

Inside the battlefield, Qiu Yunan became more and more alarmed as she fought. No matter how fast she increased her speed, no matter how dense her lightning became, Jiang You could always perfectly dodge with the smallest movements and the most incredible angles.

It was as if he could see through every thought in her mind!

"Jiang You! Are you fighting, or are you going for a stroll!"

Qiu Yunan gritted her silver teeth, her breathing beginning to become ragged. The continuous high-intensity bursts, combined with the real sensation of fatigue simulated by the virtual battlefield, caused her movements to exhibit a barely perceptible stagnation.

"I don't believe you can dodge everything!"

"Thunderstorm, Thunder Star!!!"

Qiu Yunan shouted, gathering all her remaining spiritual energy into her right palm. She transformed into a dazzling purple meteor, carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth as she charged straight at Jiang You's chest!

This was her trump card, a killing move that couldn't be retracted!

"Now is the time."

The blue light in Jiang You's eyes flashed; he saw the flaw in Qiu Yunan's move. Because she had used too much force, she had lost her center of gravity. If she missed, the backlash of spiritual energy would be enough to cause her serious injury.

If he were to punch the weak point like he did against Zhang Kuang, Qiu Yunan would definitely be defeated instantly in a very ugly manner.

"Senior Sister Qiu is a nice person; I should be gentler."

Jiang You sighed helplessly and finally took his hands out of his pockets.

He didn't retreat but advanced instead, stepping forward to meet that ball of destructive lightning.

Inverse Blood Flow Technique—maximum power operation!

A soft golden halo emanated from Jiang You's right hand. He didn't clench his fist; instead, he spread his five fingers, steadily meeting Qiu Yunan's lightning-overflowing palm.

"Slap!"

Their palms locked together!

The earth-shattering explosion that had been expected did not occur.

In Qiu Yunan's shocked gaze, her violent lightning power, which was enough to destroy a building, met Jiang You's palm and was instantly sucked dry by a force that was extremely overbearing yet incredibly gentle, just like water meeting a sponge!

The lightning suddenly extinguished.

Due to momentum, coupled with the intense feeling of exhaustion caused by her ultimate move being instantly drained, Qiu Yunan's body lurched forward, and her feet slipped on the wet edge of the rooftop!

"Ah!"

Qiu Yunan let out a cry, losing her balance, and fell backward off the rooftop.
