Chapter 1376: What Immortal Pill Is This?

While fighting, you threw something over without saying a word, and this Qiu Baiyi actually ate it.

Lie Xue saw his brows tightly furrowed—what the hell is this woman up to now?

Qiu Baiyi, who had eaten a piece of pastry, initially felt only a warm sensation in her heart, but the next second she surprisingly discovered that the injuries on her body seemed to be recovering quickly.

Upon realizing this, Qiu Baiyi's eyes filled with disbelief.

"Could it be my husband's food........"

Before, Ye Zhangqing had deliberately suppressed the food's effects, so Qiu Baiyi didn't know either.

But this time, Ye Zhangqing gave it his all, no longer suppressing it; feeling this terrifying effect, Qiu Baiyi was completely stunned.

This effect was simply heaven-defying—not only were her injuries healed, but even the pain in her body vanished quickly.

Her combat power seemed to have returned to its peak in the blink of an eye.

Lie Xue hadn't yet noticed Qiu Baiyi's change; he only felt that this woman's aura had somehow increased a bit.

"What kind of secret technique is this? It's lasted so long?"

He had been fighting Qiu Baiyi for several hours, yet this woman's aura not only showed no sign of weakening—on the contrary, it damn well increased a bit.

Lie Xue wondered in his heart, filled with questions.

Does Bai Song Gu really have such an awesome secret technique? How come I've never seen anything like it before?

But before Lie Xue could figure it out, he saw Qiu Baiyi's aura rise again.

If just now it was only a slight increase, then now Qiu Baiyi's aura all around her was constantly strengthening, constantly rising.

This left Lie Xue dumbfounded—what's going on? Using a secret technique, her aura didn't weaken at all; instead, it kept getting stronger?

His eyes were about to pop out, while Qiu Baiyi, feeling extremely good, looked at Lie Xue and a flash of extreme killing intent appeared in her eyes.

Ye Zhangqing was fine; he hadn't left, and Qiu Baiyi's only worry was put to rest.

As for who had previously taken off in the Star Battleship, Qiu Baiyi didn't care at all—she only cared about Ye Zhangqing.

Moreover, the pastries Ye Zhangqing sent had such a heaven-defying effect that Qiu Baiyi's fighting spirit surged.

"Again."

With a low shout, Qiu Baiyi flashed and instantly appeared before Lie Xue.

Faced with the suddenly appearing Qiu Baiyi, Lie Xue was stunned—had her speed increased as well?

Then, facing Qiu Baiyi's attack, Lie Xue hastily raised his hands to defend, but when the strike landed on his hands, he went numb.

Had her strength increased as well? What's going on—has her combat power fully recovered?

Even though she had just shown fatigue a moment ago, now, in the time it takes to turn her head, has this woman's combat power fully recovered?

Moreover, looking at Qiu Baiyi now, there's not a trace of injury—she's completely in peak condition.

Unbelievable, simply unbelievable.

But Qiu Baiyi didn't give Lie Xue time to think too much; after gaining the upper hand, she pressed her advantage relentlessly.

She chased Lie Xue with a furious assault.

Facing Qiu Baiyi whose combat power had fully recovered, Lie Xue could only struggle to defend.

Originally, he should have had the advantage, but now it's completely reversed.

Qiu Baiyi's injuries, for some unknown reason, mysteriously healed—and at such a speed that Lie Xue couldn't even react.

Now Qiu Baiyi is in peak condition, but Lie Xue isn't.

His injuries, while not as severe as Qiu Baiyi's earlier, were still injuries.

Now the situation has reversed, and Lie Xue's combat power is actually inferior to Qiu Baiyi's.

"Damn it, what exactly did you just eat?"

"What the hell kind of immortal pill did you take to recover your combat power in an instant—isn't that too absurd?"

Qiu Baiyi didn't answer Lie Xue's words; taking advantage of the Viper's absence, she wanted to try as much as possible to see if she could kill Lie Xue.

Although it's difficult and the chance is slim, she still had to try.

Otherwise, if the Viper returns, it'll still be trouble—even at her peak, she couldn't handle the Viper and Lie Xue together.

Lie Xue also sensed Qiu Baiyi's killing intent, and his whole body bristled with rage.

This woman still wants to kill me? She's damn overbearing!

Just now, someone who could barely defend herself—now, after eating who-knows-what, she actually wants to turn around and kill me?

He quickly guessed Qiu Baiyi's thought: she wanted to take advantage of the Viper's absence.

For a moment, besides hating Qiu Baiyi, Lie Xue gritted his teeth and cursed her heartily in his mind.

That damn lunatic abandoned me and ran off—look what a mess this has become.

I damn well can't suppress this woman alone—she's now trying to turn the tables on me.

What should have been a smooth affair was messed up by that Viper into a series of twists and turns; now it's Lie Xue himself who's run into some trouble.

Really, Qiu Baiyi is just plain crazy—relying on her good condition, she's single-mindedly intent on doing me in.

For that, she doesn't even fear trading injury for injury, having completely abandoned defense.

"Qiu Baiyi, don't push people too far—even a clay figure has some fire in it."

Being gradually suppressed by Qiu Baiyi, Lie Xue truly went mad, gritting his teeth and roaring angrily.

And Qiu Baiyi's reply to that was just two words.

"Come die."

Hearing that, Lie Xue felt his liver ache with anger and roared.

"Qiu Baiyi, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Saying that, Lie Xue immediately assumed a posture to clash head-on with Qiu Baiyi; facing her longsword, he didn't dodge or evade, but went straight for a direct confrontation.

Seeing this, Qiu Baiyi wasn't startled but delighted—she hoped Lie Xue would meet her head-on, because only then would she have a slim chance to slay him before the Viper returns.

Noticing the excitement in Qiu Baiyi's eyes, Li Xue grew even angrier.

However, as the two attacks were about to collide, Li Xue still came to his senses and suppressed the anger in his heart.

Then...... he switched from offense to defense.

Faced with Li Xue's sudden change of move, Qiu Baiyi's face darkened. "This bastard isn't looking for a head‑on clash? Why is he chickening out again?"

The excitement in his eyes turned to contempt, and Li Xue also noticed that look of disdain; he felt furious inside, yet there was nothing he could do.

Indeed, he was the one who first chickened out, but now going head‑to‑head with Qiu Baiyi is exactly playing into this woman's hands.

This woman isn't afraid of me fighting to the death; she's afraid I'll chicken out. As long as I hold out, she can't do anything to me in the short term.

Even with the upper hand, wanting to slay him is nothing short of a daydream—utterly impossible.

So now, what Li Xue needs to do is just hold out, hold out, hold out until the Viper returns.

Though he felt terrible inside, reason still led Li Xue to make the wisest choice—aside from holding out, there was no better option at this moment.

Seeing Li Xue's tactics become increasingly despicable, Qiu Baiyi grew ever more contemptuous of this man.

"Li Xue, when did you turn into a shrinking‑head turtle?"
