Chapter 214: Chapter 214 The Great Net

~8 min read 1,555 words

Ye Lin saw the white junior sister pull out a copper bell that she used to seal herself, let out a silent sigh and activated the earth‑vanishing talisman.

Unfortunately, after finding a spot, he only felt some puppet fragments and did not find Jiang Yu.

"Where is the person?" he said, inch by inch feeling while propping up his protective aura shield.

After the first puppet exploded, Jiang Yu scooped Jiang Tu into the Dragon Pearl space; when the second puppet exploded, Jiang Tu was already flung, covered in mud, his bloodied limbs wailing in pain.

"Just a little bit of blood; quickly eat a small restorative pill, otherwise the wound will stop bleeding later." Jiang Yu was cleaning the debris and disinfecting it.

Fortunately their pills were plentiful; Jiang Tu, the Dragon King, swallowed one casually and recovered instantly. "Damn, if I didn't have this shell, I would have been seriously injured."

Before the words finished, on the Dragon Stele, another Ye Lin appeared in the mud, frowning and saying, "Puppet?"

"Wearing a protective aura shield, a real person." Jiang Yu told it to drive the Dragon Pearl to follow.

And when Ye Lin could not find anyone and was about to slip away, Jiang Yu suddenly flashed into the Dragon Pearl space.

The bamboo fan unleashed three massive bolts of thunder, booming and shattering Ye Lin's protective aura; he was instantly buried by the mud.

But Jiang Yu thrust out a long spear, aiming to pierce his chest, while moving close to strike the body‑sealing talisman.

"You…" Ye Lin, who had just spoken a word, was completely immobilized; the blood from his chest quickly seeped into the mud.

He exhaled more than he inhaled, watching Jiang Yu pull him into the aura she upheld, the death‑like aura in his eyes rising.

"Ye Lin, you have attacked me repeatedly; today we finish this." Jiang Yu's spiritual energy surged to her fingertips, forming a pale‑golden spirit needle that silently shot toward Ye Lin's brow.

With a "Bup" sound, the Ye scion completely collapsed, his eyes wide open and unable to close.

"Why aren't you searching his soul? Don't bring him into the Dragon Pearl." Jiang Tu, seeing Jiang Yu holding his corpse, instantly transmitted his voice.

Jiang Yu replied, "Find a spot, dig him out, cremate him."

Jiang Tu leapt out of the space: "Why aren't you doing it?"

"Go up and kill the other one." He had intended to settle it another day, but the enemy came to the door, so Jiang Yu didn't hesitate to strike.

She swiftly vanished underground, saw the white junior sister dash away again, then unleashed the bamboo fan, chasing at extreme speed to intercept.

"White junior sister, why are you trying to kill me?" As she asked, the long spear that had just killed re‑launched toward the opponent.

The white junior sister didn't expect her to strike immediately, hurriedly waved her soul banner; instantly, the banner's pole elongated automatically, seeming to turn into another spear that intercepted the incoming spear tip in mid‑air.

But the next moment, Jiang Yu hurled a thunderball onto the flying sword.

"You have no sense of martial virtue!" The white junior sister tried to control the soul banner duel while keeping the flying sword steady, but she couldn't fully dodge the thunderball that scattered like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

Bang bang bang

Jiang Yu truly ignored martial virtue; in one breath she tossed five thunderballs, blasting the white junior sister from all directions—up, down, left, and right.

The latter indeed couldn't parry; the flying sword lost control and fell downward, yet she quickly flipped to try to steady it while retracting the soul banner.

Yet Jiang Yu's thunderballs came down one after another as if they were free, and the white junior sister ultimately couldn't keep the flying sword steady, it slammed into the ground at full speed.

Fortunately she reacted quickly, avoiding a face‑first bite of mud; she steadied herself to attempt another dash, but Jiang Yu had already chased and blocked her.

Moreover, she used a Forbidden Spirit Net to cover the white junior sister as a blocking method.

"Senior sister, I didn't intend to kill you; it was Master Wen Lan Wen who brought us in, she wants to kill you." The white junior sister dodged again, waved her soul banner, and commanded shadow ghosts to protect her.

Dozens of shadow ghosts flew out, but upon seeing the incoming thunder, they immediately tried to retreat back into the banner.

Indeed, Jiang Yu's net ambush failed, so she immediately switched to thunder bamboo fan attacks, and she didn't use the long spear again.

And she didn't trust the white junior sister: "Wen Lan doesn't know me," she thought, and would never have someone kill herself.

Two bolts of thunder crackled and shot toward the opposite side: "White junior sister, why did Master Wen not send her family, but instead sent you in?"

"How would I know? She suddenly showed up in the spiritual mine looking for Ye Lin; I heard she was the person who, that year, experimented with demon‑attracting powder on Er Mountain."

"And then they forced her out of the mine." The white junior sister was angry; after narrowly dodging, she thought that she clearly possessed an artifact‑grade soul banner, but due to limited cultivation she could only control a dozen or so shadow ghosts at a time.

And now they actually want to retreat without a fight; how can that be?

The white junior sister shouted loudly; the shadow ghosts, bearing thunder, lunged toward Jiang Yu, but they didn't charge straight—they tried to flank from the sides.

But Jiang Yu now wielded the bamboo fan expertly; with a single hand and a technique, the fan instantly enlarged, swirling above her head, covering up, down, left, and right with thunder.

Any shadow ghost that got close and touched it died instantly; even those a step behind were not spared.

Because Jiang Yu directed her spiritual power, the thunder shot toward them, and in the blink of an eye all were annihilated.

The white junior sister gave up on moving the soul banner; she suddenly realized why she was using an artifact that the opponent could counter.

She then drew her spiritual sword and said, "Sister Jiang, do you dare to duel me with swords?"

"Heh." Jiang Yu suddenly laughed, and as the opponent propelled the spiritual sword to thrust, she gave the bamboo fan atop her head a fierce swing.

Clack

Several arcs of electricity, like the flying sword, dodged the incoming sword aimed at the white junior sister, while still tossing another thunderball to assist.

The white junior sister was furious, thinking how could she keep fighting; seeing several protective artifacts shattered, she turned to run, but a huge beast claw slammed toward her from the front.

It was Jiang Tu; the guy wasn't foolishly digging tunnels underground, but had brought Ye Lin to the surface, hidden, watching Jiang Yu attack single‑handedly.

With two "clack" sounds, her protective aura shattered, and the Forbidden Spirit Net flew from behind, instantly ensnaring her.

The white junior sister's entire spiritual power was immediately sealed. "Sister Jiang, are all the techniques you duel with just artifacts?"

"Of course." It wasn't a tournament; Jiang Yu only cared about the outcome, not the process.

She quickly set up a formation, not wanting any passerby to see her killing a fellow sect member.

When the formation was in place, she approached the white junior sister: "Your sentence is short; after serving it, you can return to the sect to cultivate. Why did you flee the spiritual mine?"

Without waiting for an answer, she asked, "If you run, you run; you could just build your foundation and cultivate properly, so why did you have to trap and kill me the moment we met?"

"Search his soul!" Jiang Tu thought this method was the simplest.

Jiang Yu, unwilling but forced, didn't want to use it; probing another's memories is unpleasant.

"If I tell Sister Jiang, would you spare me?" The white junior sister, seeing her shake her head, immediately asked with a glimmer of hope.

Jiang Yu said bluntly, "No. The first time was a misunderstanding, but you left and returned, and the second time you struck. Of course, if you truly don't speak, I can also choose not to listen."

Of course, if you truly don't speak, I can also choose not to listen.

You! Hahaha, Jiang Yu, you are truly ruthless.

Back then, because of you, my Bai Family was deprived of the spirit ore, and the entire clan was punished.

Even Baili True Person no longer mentions taking on disciples; my bright future has been ruined because of you.

Jiang Yu remembered that trial: "That mine of the Bai Family is managed by the Generation Sect, not a private mine."

Discovering that the private sale of Vigorous Silver Sand might not merit a heavy punishment, but your Bai Family's collaboration with the Demonic Sect is the main reason the whole clan was punished.

Bai Junior Sister, however, said: "Don't meddle in other people's affairs......"

Jiang Tu slapped her down with one palm, cutting her off before she could say more: "True Person Hu is leading the investigation; why don't you go kill her?"
