"What?!"
"Are you serious?"
Everyone was shocked and stood gaping at the amazing scene. The commoners were naturally impressed but even cultivators were dumbfounded by her illogical survival. It was a full power attack from a 7th Level Spirit Initiate Realm cultivator. It was no joke and even someone at the 10th Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm would not choose to confront it head on. Yet, Li Yuechan brushed off the attack like it was nothing.
No one was more stunned than Fen Chenyuan. His eyes bulged out in disbelief as he pointed a shaky finger at Li Yuechan, "What... what are you?"
Li Yuechan ignored him and gathered her spiritual energy. "My turn..."
She charged forward rapidly, spiritual energy erupting from her hands and feet as she rained down a stream of attacks on Fen Chenyuan. He was tired from his prior attack and could barely defend himself. His prized armor started to crack as powerful blows landed squarely on his body.
His movement and reaction were slow and clumsy compared to Li Yuechan's which was akin to a graceful dance. As he lost his focus more and more, Li Yuechan finally found her chance. She faked a strike with her right fist which he fell for. As he tried to block, she channeled another Demon's Agony through her right leg. This time it connected with devastating effect.
Bam!
"AhhhhHHH!"
Fen Chenyuan was blasted into the ground in a heap. He didn't get up and lay there clutching his crotch in agony. His wretched moans drove a phantom pain into every male spectator in the crowd and they shuddered in fear. It was unclear if Fen Chengyuan could regain the use of his tool in the future.
What a fearsome woman!
Li Yuechan looked down at Fen Chenyuan in contempt. She decided it was enough. She wasn't vindictive like Zhou Ziyun or else she would have ruined his face as well.
"Don't abuse women in the future." Li Yuechan said. She gestured to her sisters, "Let's go!"
The men in Fen Chenyuan's team stood dumbly, not daring to stop them. The crowd silently parted, forming a path to let them through.
"Wait!" A voice yelled out.
Three more red robed men rushed out of the crowd and blocked their path. They were powerful cultivators and their auras were scorching hot. From their age and appearance, there was no doubt they were at the 10th Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm.
"5th Elder!" One of the defeated Divine Blazing Mountain disciples cried out.
The 5th Elder who was in the lead raised his hands to silence the crowd. His robes were visibly more richly red than the other two and it was also embroidered with gold. His hair and beard were almost completely grey but it didn't mean he was weak. On the contrary, he was someone who had been at peak of the mortal realm for many years and was one of the strongest below an immortal.
The fight unfortunately had dragged on for too long and had attracted unwanted attention. Within Crystal Bamboo City, there were more than a few squads from the large sects present at any one time. They were here to rest after completing missions and to receive new ones. These three actually had hid within the crowd for some time, only coming out when their juniors had been defeated.
He looked at Li Yuechan and asked gruffly "I am Tang Mohai, 5th Elder of Divine Blazing Mountain. Who are you?"
"Senior, I am Li Yuechan. My sisters and I are disciples of Ten Thousand Flower Valley." She said respectfully.
"Hmph! Insolent!" Tang Mohai snorted. "A tiny sect dares to offend Divine Blazing Mountain? Did you master not teach you manners?"
"Senior, it was a minor dispute between disciples. Please let us pass." Li Yuechan said.
She was seriously wondering why every member of Divine Blazing Mountain were such vile men. She glanced at her sisters, who looked nervous. They could tell that it was a serious situation and they might have to fight again.
Tang Mohai flexed his arms and his spiritual energy rose up dangerously. "You left my core disciple in such a state. You're not going anywhere."
The other two senior Divine Blazing Mountain members also rippled with fiery spiritual energy, ready to attack. The four from the first group also took the cue and regained their fighting spirit. Li Yuechan could only retreat back to her sisters. They were completely surrounded with no way out.
A large part of the audience was made up of Mayor Zhang's refugees. He had tried to shoo them away but they were attracted by the crowds. They also wanted to support their five heroines against the vile men. However, this situation was not a fair fight. They started to panic and run for safety. Mayor Zhang chose to stay this time but could only look on helplessly as Li Yuechan and her sisters bravely faced off against unjust odds.
Just as Tang Mohai was about to launch an attack, an icy veil fell upon the entire crowd. The icy energy directly clashed with the abundant fire energy and they battled for dominance before canceling each other out in a stalemate.
Li Yuechan recognized the familiar icy energy and sighed in relief. She looked around and saw a grateful sight. It was none other than Long Yifei, Snow Fairy of Glacier Palace. She led a squad of ten other Glacier Sect members and glided across the street, stopping between them and Tang Mohai.
Long Yifei's face was covered with a veil and she wore an ethereal white dress that outlined overwhelmingly enticing curves. There were many gasps of awe from the onlookers. All the men's eyes were glued onto her body, roaming up and down like ravenous wolves.
Tang Mohai was not immune to her charm either. He swallowed his saliva and finally found his voice, "You! What are you doing here?"
"Elder Tang, please let these women go. This indeed was a minor dispute." Long Yifei's angelic voice drifted over. She even bowed in respect but her words were firm. "Please let it go."
It was clear what her intent was. Tang Mohai spluttered in anger but couldn't find a good comeback. He had no other forces with him and he had no confidence in beating Long Yifei. Her talent was once in a generation, far eclipsing people like him.
"I'll remember this..." Tang Mohai muttered before turning to his men, "Let's go! Carry that useless idiot away."
Li Yuechan, Song Wushuang, Xu Lanyi, Su Xue, and Su Yue all sighed in relief as the Divine Blazing Mountain men disappeared from sight. Finally, it was over. It was pretty scary for several moments and the fights were not easy. But considering their opponents, they had performed quite well under the circumstances.
Long Yifei turned and walked over to them.
"Snow Fairy Long! Thank you!" They bowed in gratitude as well as from old habit.
Long Yifei smiled, "Meeting again under such circumstance... is quite fortunate?"
"You still remember us?" Su Xue blurted out.
"Of course, my former junior sisters. How can I forget?" Long Yifei said, "I was very sad to hear the news about you from master but I'm so glad you're all doing great."
The spectators still hadn't completely dispersed. Some cultivators in the crowed picked up on Long Yifei's words and started whispering among themselves. Former Glacier Palace disciples? Now with Ten Thousand Flower Valley? What did it mean?
"It seems... we have some flies." Long Yifei said in a low voice, "Let's take this somewhere more private?"
"Sure." Li Yuechan found Mayor Zhang, "Mayor, can you prepare a large room for us at the inn?"
"Right away!" Mayor Zhang bowed and dashed off.
