Chapter 318

Esdeath thought for a moment: "Lolicon?"

Ba Yun Zi nodded, convinced: "Pervert!"

Esdeath announced with an expressionless face: "Death penalty!"

Ba Yun Zi was full of disdain: "The absolute worst!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you two wait a second. This isn't what I wanted! It was An Jieli Ya who forced me to sign the contract!"

Jia Ji was squeezed hard by the tacitly understanding pair from left and right. To avoid being labeled a "disgraceful guy," he hurriedly defended himself.

Although they were noisy, it looked like the relationship between Esdeath and Ba Yun Zi was quite harmonious... right?

But even if they started fighting on the spot, Jia Ji would only think they were exchanging emotions.

"In other words... this power doesn't belong to you!"

Ba Yun Zi gently shook the folding fan in her hand, pouting to the side, looking as if she disdained to associate with him.

She also worked hard every day to train her yokai power and boundary power. Even though hundreds of years had passed, her progress was still as slow as a turtle's, while this guy Jia Ji had broken through just by taking a nap.

Watching with her own eyes as the other party went from being so fragile that he would break if she touched him, to his current strength where even her all-out efforts could only "scrape" him, the Yokai Sage, who considered herself still young, felt unbalanced no matter how good her mentality was.

Does she really think the Frenzy Rank is some roadside Pikachu?

In her world, no matter how talented a yokai is, it would take hundreds of years to possibly reach it, and in Esdeath's world, she was the only one known to have broken through to this level. In other weaker worlds, there wasn't even one.

Ba Yun Zi had sufficient reason to suspect that Jia Ji carried some special luck. Although he had his fair share of bad luck, he could always catch up to the updated version at critical moments.

However... what made her feel the most uncomfortable was that if she continued like this, she might not even be qualified to support him, and could only stand on the sidelines as a spectator waving flags. Who on earth said this guy had mediocre aptitude?!

Decided! After going back this time, she must spend less time in the group chat, cultivate more, and use time dilation to cheat hard. At the very least, she shouldn't be left too far behind by him!

"What do you mean it doesn't belong to me..."

Jia Ji revealed a solemn expression, "I will never forget that day; I lost something extremely important..."

After proposing the game of tag, in a space known to no one, time seemed to have lost its concept.

"Gaga, you're not bad, guy... As expected..."

The blonde little girl who called herself "Old Lady" had a lollipop in her mouth at some point. With her hands behind her head, she looked at the panting Jia Ji, seemingly satisfied.

She lazily stretched her body, her bones making a crisp cracking sound, and then the entire blank world teetered on the brink of collapse under this simple movement of hers, looking as if it were about to fall apart.

"What... are you saying!"

Jia Ji, who had been chased until he was panting, originally wanted to scold her loudly, but this little girl, who was so small and spoke so arrogantly, was simply too strong.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought about resisting, but that tiny body contained unimaginable power. The happier she laughed, the more terrifying the punches she threw were. And when she occasionally caught him, it was like holding that throw pillow; her slender fingers were like shackles, leaving him completely unable to move.

One only needed to look to the side to know. This white world, which was empty except for them, had formed deep pits like meteorite impacts with them at the center. Everywhere were huge craters like the lunar surface; these were all smashed out by Jia Ji after being hit by the opponent's seemingly light throwing techniques.

Here, Jia Ji's physical abilities were not reduced in the slightest, yet he could still only passively use various blocking techniques to barely hold on under this detestable loli demon god.

And as long as he was being watched by An Jieli Ya, in front of this little girl, Jia Ji would groundlessly feel his momentum weaken by thirty percent.

For example, if he wanted to throw a Tyrant Roaring Fist, it would automatically shrink into a "Puppy Fist" in front of her.

How could there be such an inexplicable feeling of being countered by the other party?

"So, what exactly is this place?"

One-sided conversations like this would happen occasionally, but most of the time, the other party would only answer "So annoying!" or "I don't know." But today was an exception.

After the blonde little girl finished praising him and stretching, she seemed to become sleepy. Her big eyes blinked, filled with drowsiness. Her head dipped, and she fell asleep directly on the pitted ground in a spread-eagle position, a trace of satisfaction on her exquisite face.

"Kid, this is the Holy Spirit Realm~"

The object that had been held in the blonde little girl's hand, smashed around everywhere, and used to create countless meteorite craters—just like a doll-like throw pillow—spoke under her head, in Jia Ji's horrified gaze.

Knowing he must still be confused, it had a white, flowing beard, was pale purple all over, and two semi-circular eyes stared bright red at Jia Ji, then continued in an aged voice that did not match its appearance:

"Including me—the great Holy Spirit Realm mage Merlin—the bodies of most phantom beasts like dragons, fairies, and spirits are not composed of matter but of spirit bodies. And the Holy Spirit Realm is the world where we Holy Spirits reside... As far as I know, you humans all reside in the Material Realm; ordinary people cannot enter this world."

Although he really wanted to complain about why a pillow was also named "Merlin," Jia Ji barely held it back.

"Why did I come here?"

The doubts in his heart were not explained in the slightest. Weren't there spirits and fairies? How come he didn't see anything? And what was up with this demon-like little girl in front of him? Could spirit bodies also have such formidable power?

"Because... this is Lady An Jieli Ya's domain. No other blind spirit body would dare to approach, and the scenery of this world changes according to Lady An Jieli Ya's thoughts..."

When it said this, accompanied by the blonde little girl's peaceful sleeping face, the surrounding destroyed environment actually refreshed itself autonomously as if it had entered creative mode. Various things gradually rose up in the crudely made pure white space.

"Flowers," "trees," "sky," "breeze," "clouds," "sun," "rainbow," "ocean," "beach," "forest," "pebbles," "gravel," "earth"...

All kinds of things returned to their original positions.

"As for you—"

Merlin paused, and Jia Ji actually saw a trace of human-like oddity on its doll face, "If I haven't guessed wrong, you were summoned from the Material Realm by Lady An Jieli Ya unconsciously—a 'Saintess'!"

"Saint-Saint-Saint-Saint-Saint... Saintess?!"

Jia Ji pointed at his own nose, incredulous. Although he hadn't read many books, he considered his cultural level to be much higher than some illiterate village girl.

"Who? Saintess?... Me?"

Is there a Saintess with biceps so developed they could crush a car of Mohicans? Iron-Fist Saintess Jialda, is that it?
