Zhong Ling turned around slightly and was already several feet away, leaving Yue Lao San roaring and roaring in the same place, but he couldn't even touch the corner of her clothes. Zhong Ling looked back at Yue Lao San with a smug smile on her face. She giggled, made a face, and said mischievously.

"Big-headed monster! Can't catch it, anxious, screaming, like a frustrated toad."

The voice was clear and pleasant, like a mountain spring flowing through one's heart, or like the song of an oriole in spring, full of teasing and challenges to Yue Lao San, and every word sounded like a carefully selected note.

Jumping in the air, weaving into a piece of music full of fun and vitality. When Yue Laosan heard this, his face turned red, as if blood could drip out. His eyes were wide open, full of anger.

After saying that, Zhong Ling raised her slender hand again, and a few more stones appeared in her palm. This time, she did not throw them directly like before, but threw them out one by one in a more elegant and mysterious way.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The stones drew beautiful tracks in the air at an astonishing speed, yet seemed to contain some kind of wonderful rhythm. Yue Laosan was horrified when he saw this, and he tried his best to avoid these sudden attacks.

But in the end, Yue Laosan was hit in the shoulder, head and stomach by several of the stones. Although it did not cause much damage, it was enough to make him feel severe pain and humiliation.

This sudden fierce battle instantly attracted the attention of everyone around. They widened their eyes, as if time had stopped at this moment. The girl's figure shuttled across the battlefield like an elf.

Each of her actions was full of wisdom and courage. What was unbelievable was that she could face the notorious and dreaded Yue Lao San alone and not be at a disadvantage at all.

Yue Laosan's face turned ashen and his eyes turned red with anger. He roared, stomped his feet on the ground, and chased after the girl like an arrow, vowing to capture this girl who challenged his dignity.

However, Zhong Ling seemed to have anticipated his action. She jumped up lightly, drew a graceful arc in the air, and landed steadily. She flexibly used the surrounding environment to hide here and there.

Sometimes she jumped onto the treetops, sometimes she dived into the bushes, making it impossible for the angry Yue Lao San to lock onto her position.

Yue Laosan, a strong and ferocious man, was extremely anxious. He kept changing his attack methods, trying to force Zhong Ling to make a weakness, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not touch a corner of Zhong Ling's clothes.

Instead, Zhong Ling took the opportunity to counterattack. She flipped her wrist and several stones flew towards Yue Lao San like meteors chasing the moon. These stones looked ordinary, but in Zhong Ling's jade hands they seemed to be given life and hit Yue Lao San's face with incredible precision.

"Bang bang bang..."

A series of dense and crisp collisions echoed in the quiet valley like a summer rainstorm, and each sound was accompanied by a slight tremor in the air.

Those seemingly insignificant pebbles, cutting through the air with a force that should not be underestimated, accurately hit Yue Laosan's face, which was distorted by anger.

Yue Lao San was furious with his eyes wide open, full of unwillingness and astonishment. Although he was known in the martial arts world for his immense strength and ferocity, at this moment, he was facing the light-bodied and intelligent Zhong Ling.

But he seemed so clumsy and powerless. The already rough lines on Yue Laosan's face became more distinct. Bruises and redness were intertwined into a shocking picture, as if they were battle scars left on the battlefield, recording the initial outcome of this contest of strength and wisdom.

Zhong Ling's figure shuttled around like a forest elf, with a sly smile on her lips. Every turn and jump she made was just the right time to avoid Yue Lao San's bear-like attacks.

Determination and confidence sparkled in her clear eyes. The stone in her hand was like her most loyal weapon. Every throw was a precise strike on the enemy and also another affirmation of her own ability.

Yue Laosan roared repeatedly, with a hint of unwillingness and frustration in his voice. He tried to use greater strength and faster speed to catch the little girl who was like a phantom in his eyes.

But no matter how hard he tried, he always fell short, allowing Zhong Ling to escape and fight back time and time again.

the other side.

At this time, Gongsun Zhi, who was holding his daughter Gongsun Lue'e hostage, was feeling mixed emotions. He was obviously angry and helpless about the out-of-control situation. The atmosphere on the scene was tense and anxious, and every slight movement affected everyone's nerves.

Over there, a fierce battle between Xu Xingchen and Duan Yanqing was going on. Xu Xingchen was agile and his swordsmanship was superb. Every time he swung his sword, it seemed as if he could cut through the air and hit Duan Yanqing's vital points.

Although Duan Yanqing used a staff instead of a sword, he had deep internal strength and his moves were fierce. In the confrontation between the two, it was Xu Xingchen who gradually gained the upper hand, which made everyone present secretly amazed.

At the same time, the situation at Ye Erniang was also quite bad. She wanted to find a chance to escape, but unexpectedly she was entangled by Mu Wanqing. Mu Wanqing's swordsmanship was sharp, and she fought with Ye Erniang, making it impossible for Ye Erniang to extricate herself.

Looking at Yue Lao San again, he was an impatient person, but at this moment he was helpless against the little girl Zhong Ling. Zhong Ling was smart and agile, and she could always cleverly dodge Yue Lao San's attacks and counterattack from time to time, making Yue Lao San furious but helpless.

As for Yun Zhonghe, he made Gongsun Zhi extremely disappointed. He was one of the "Four Great Evils" and was known in the martial arts world as the "most vicious and cruel" villain, but he could never be relied on at critical moments.

At this moment, he seemed to be frightened by the chaotic situation before him, hiding aside and not daring to act rashly.

What made Gongsun Zhi feel the most stressed and almost breathless was the pair of eyes of Qiu Ganchi in front of him, which seemed to be able to see into people's hearts and were flashing with hatred and determination.

Even though she was imprisoned in a wheelchair and unable to move freely, the majesty and indomitable spirit emanating from her bones was like a sharp blade, piercing Gongsun Zhi's heart.

He couldn't help but shudder. Her eyes were filled with a sense of reckoning with past grievances and a firm belief in the future, which made Gongsun Zhi realize that he was standing on the edge of a cliff, and if he wasn't careful, he would be doomed.

Faced with this almost unsolvable dilemma, Gongsun Zhi was thinking of the only way out, which was to take advantage of Qiu Ganchi's most cherished weakness, their daughter Gongsun Lue'e.

Once this thought emerged, it entangled Gongsun Zhi's heart like a poisonous snake, making him feel both painful and helpless. He knew that this action would completely destroy the last bit of family affection between them, but in order to protect himself, he had no choice.

So, at that moment, Gongsun Zhi's face suddenly became extremely cold, like frost condensed in winter. He took a deep breath, mobilized the deep internal strength in his body, and quickly formed a seal with his right hand.

His right hand turned into a palm, with a white light glowing in the palm and an irresistible force. Gongsun Zhi slapped hard on the delicate jade back of his own daughter, Gongsun Lu'e.

"Oh!"

A dull and shocking sound of energy instantly resounded throughout the space, as if even the surrounding air solidified at this moment. This attack not only contained all of Gongsun Zhi's anger and despair, but also was mixed with his deep self-blame and regret for his own actions.

However, everything is irreversible.

"puff…!"

With the explosion of Qi, accompanied by a dull and suppressed sound, Gongsun Lue'e's originally weak and boneless body seemed to have lost all support and reliance under the sudden and violent impact of Qi.

In an instant, she turned into a helpless kite swaying in the air. Her body suddenly shot forward in an almost out-of-control posture, and her clothes fluttered, revealing a bit of sadness and determination.

The bright red blood slowly flowing from the corner of her mouth was like a flower blooming in despair, shocking to the eye, indicating that the internal injuries Gongsun Lue'e had suffered were so severe that they were beyond description.

Those clear eyes were now filled with disbelief and unforgettable pain. They seemed like two bottomless cold pools, reflecting the collapse and shattering of her inner world.
