Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest

Chapter 603 It’s time to fight for a spouse again
"Ye Jun is coming too?" Lin Ning, who came back with food, was immediately struck by shocking news from Yan Yu.

"It's not 'she's coming too'." Yan Yu calmly corrected her, "It's 'she's coming back'. Maintaining order before the monk competition was originally the task assigned to her by the Dingbei Army, but she was transferred out a few days ago due to something."

Lin Ning quickly fell silent. If the threat level she felt from Ye Qianqian was ten, then the threat level from Ye Jun was one thousand, one hundred million, a billion billion!
After all, the captain has been here for more than a week. God knows what happened between him and Ye Jun. As the saying goes, the unknown is the most terrifying. For Ningning, it is like preparing for the college entrance examination on the eve of the exam, and suddenly finding out that she has to take an additional test for a subject she has never prepared for. The threat level is no exaggeration, even if it is said to be one hundred million billion billion.

She tensed up completely, watching Yan Yu calmly eating the food he brought with him, and quickly decided to give it a try.

Yunjin, let me lend you some of your tricks!
"Oh." Lin Ning smiled gently and said, "Then Ye Jun is really lucky. She is our captain's partner. She doesn't have to do anything. She just needs to be carried."

"You should judge others by your own standards, right?" Yan Yu taught her slowly, and this attitude made Ning Ning even more secretly angry. "You should also get stronger as soon as possible, otherwise you will become like Ye Jun in the future. When others hear that you are my partner, they will assert that you are just slacking off and are a vase that I have led to failure."

"I understand." The angrier Lin Ning got, the more obedient she pretended to be. She said meekly, "Then, based on your captain's evaluation criteria, who better meets your requirements for a partner, me or Ye Jun?"

"It must be you." Yan Yu said without hesitation.

Lin Ning was suddenly delighted, and all the anger that had accumulated disappeared without a trace.

You see, Ye Jun! The tacit understanding that the captain and I have developed through such a long period of cooperation cannot be easily replaced by outsiders!

"But if we remove strength, then Ye Jun would definitely be the choice." Yan Yu continued.

Lin Ning:?
Eh? ? !
"What do you mean?" she asked, puzzled.

"You asked about the 'strength standard,' so of course you're stronger," Yan Yu said truthfully. "But 'partnership' doesn't necessarily depend solely on strength. Ye Jun's Xuanguang Ruler defense is irreplaceable in many situations, but your role... oftentimes, if I work harder, I can do your job as well. Do you understand?"

Lin Ning certainly understood, but she refused to accept it! My sword immortal can fight, resist, and support, so how can I be weaker than Ye Jun? Isn't she just relying on a magic weapon, the Xuanguang Ruler?
She was a person who could not stand provocation. If she had not been enlightened by Yan Jing before, she would have jumped up and down by now.

But even if she forced herself to hold back, Lin Ning still regarded Ye Jun, who was about to return, as an enemy who needed to be guarded against!

At the same time, Ye Jun, who was rushing from Pingjing to Yanjiao, was also silently sorting out the information related to Lin Ning in his mind.

Although the two did not have a deep friendship or understanding, Ye Jun had been in the Zhenhai team for a period of time after all, so he was not completely unfamiliar with her.

Outsiders only knew Lin Ning as the Zhenhai team's second-best swordsman, best at quick attacks and sudden assaults, but little did they know that her swordsmanship was personally trained by Yan Yu. The two were nominally captain and teammates, but in reality, they had a teacher-student relationship.

Of course, according to Lu Guo's conservative tendencies, a male master pursuing a female apprentice is a topic that is not allowed to be mentioned. A female apprentice pursuing a male master is a yearning for a beautiful love, which is reflected in the novel that male protagonists strictly prohibit teacher-student love, but female protagonists can write as they please... So Ye Jun can be sure that with Yan Yu's pretentious and face-saving personality, he will most likely not give people a chance to talk and take the initiative to express his affection to Lin Ning.

He must be putting on airs, trying to get Lin Ning to pursue him!

In this way, you can rule out the possibility that you are in love with each other and lose at the starting line.

As for how to defeat Lin Ning, Ye Jun didn't even consider that aspect. They were members of the same team and theoretically should be together day and night. How could he possibly stop her?

What’s important is Yan Yu’s attitude!

If he really liked Lin Ning, how could he have had the chance to do it himself? In more than a year, Lin Ning would have succeeded long ago.

Since you two haven't succeeded yet, it's normal for me to try to develop a relationship with Yan Yu, right?
Thinking of this, Ye Jun secretly made up his mind. When he met Yan Yu later, he must remember not to compete with Lin Ning for his affection and focus on winning Yan Yu's favor.

After returning to the town government building, Ye Jun was not in a hurry to go in. He first took a selfie in front of his mobile phone to tidy up his appearance, twisted the ends of his slightly curled hair with his fingers a few times, and then showed a smile as warm as spring breeze.

In perfect condition!
Arriving at Yan Yu's residence, Ye Jun saw Lin Ning washing dishes in the kitchen. He took the opportunity to sit down next to Yan Yu and said with a smile:

"So cool! Your teammates came all the way here to cook for you?"

"Cooking is just a hobby for her, not her job." Yan Yu felt that he had to explain it clearly, otherwise he would be misunderstood as a glutton like the demon sect witch. "She came here to ask me for swordsmanship lessons, and she cooked to reward me, otherwise she would feel bad."

"That's right." Ye Jun tucked her hair behind her ears and said casually, "I think I owe you a favor, but I'm not good at cooking. If you're willing, I can learn."

The way she lifted her hair was so charming that Yan Yu was stunned for a moment. However, he was strong-willed after all, and soon regained his composure and said, waving his hand:

"No, she's in the same team as me, so it's convenient for her to cook for me every day. You come and cook for me every day? Haha, even if Lord Jing is willing, the Dingbei Army will never allow it."

Ye Jun suddenly fell silent, feeling vaguely unhappy.

Although she knew that Yan Yu was telling the truth, who would feel happy when being told that "you are an outsider"?

Lin Ning wiped her hands and walked out of the kitchen. She was slightly startled when she saw Ye Jun, but she quickly reacted.

Calm down, calm down first!

Ye Jun is only partnering with the captain during this mission. If I show hostility because of this, not only will she be confused, but the captain will also think that I am narrow-minded and even look down on me because of it.

Lin Ning quickly suppressed her emotions and started chatting with Ye Jun with a smile:
"Ye Jun, I'm here to ask the captain about the subsequent training plan. You don't have to worry about me during your normal work."

"That won't do." Ye Jun also said with a smile, "With a powerful swordsman like you here, how can we not make full use of him?"

"Alas, I can't compare to you guys." Lin Ning waved her hand modestly and said, "Not to mention the captain's strength, your Xuanguang Ruler is irreplaceable on the battlefield. I'll just observe and learn carefully from the side."

Ye Jun sneered in his heart and said, "Are you mocking me for being useless without the Xuan Guang Ruler?"
She smiled calmly and said, "My Xuanguang Ruler can only be used in defense. As for offense, only you, Lin Ning, can help Yan Yu."

This made Lin Ning a little unhappy, because family matters matter to family, and why would the captain ever need help from others? Considering that the members of the Zhenhai team couldn't keep up with the captain's fighting rhythm, this was no secret to the outside world, so she had reason to think that Ye Jun was deliberately mocking her, "Yan Yu and I can attack and defend, how about you?"

Wow wow wow wow I'm going to be angry!
The two girls looked at each other with smiles on their faces, and it seemed as if electric sparks were jumping where their eyes met.

Yan Yu watched calmly from the side and thought to himself, since you guys are already in this state, why don’t you decide the winner?
Come on, fight! What are you wasting time for? Let's go to the training ground now and I can be your referee.

He said lazily:
"You two should stop being so polite! Who can really help me? Let's find a place to compete and see who's really capable. Then everything will become clear, right?"

When the two girls heard this, they thought it was true. In fact, it had been a long time since they last saw each other. Maybe both of them had improved in strength, and Yan Yu also valued this the most, right?

It just so happened that I was feeling a little unhappy, so I took advantage of this competition to see what confidence the other party had to challenge me!

----------

There was no underground training ground in the town hall building, so the three of them found a random spot in the wild and started fighting.

As the organizer of the Monks' Games, it is normal for us to organize internal competitions in advance to rehearse for the conference, right?
The monks in the team did not have the need to become famous like the civilian monks, so they did not waste time introducing themselves. They just waited for Yan Yu to give the order and started fighting!
After Lin Ning reached the Transformation Realm, her strength in all aspects improved significantly. She unleashed the Dividing Cloud Eight Diagrams Step like a ghost, completely leaving behind Ye Jun's Spiritual Light Glazed Fire.

The two-handed sword-wielding technique was also used, and the Qingzhu Sword and Danyan Sword, one on the left and one on the right, continuously attacked Ye Jun.

Ye Jun's cultivation was still stuck at the Marrow Cleansing Stage, and his attack methods were far inferior to Lin Ning's, so he quickly fell into a disadvantage and could only use the Xuanguang Ruler to protect himself and withstand the attack.

This Xuanguang Ruler is a magic weapon that attracted the attention of the Dingbei Army and even solidified Ye Jun as a full-time defender. Its effectiveness is extraordinary. It can actually withstand the sword attacks of Huafu-level cultivators. Although it was broken after only one or two hits, Ye Jun had already become extremely skilled. Before the second attack came, he could always activate the magic weapon again to make up for the defense.

Yan Yu stood outside the field and watched, eating a bag of potato chips. He thought that Ning Ning's two-handed sword-wielding skills were still a little immature.

If her attack rhythm had been faster and she hadn't given Ye Jun the opportunity to defend herself with the Xuan Guang ruler, the duel would have been decided long ago.

Alas, little Ningning, who bullies the weak, can't even defeat Ye Jun. How ridiculous!
While watching leisurely, he quietly said to Ye Jun:

"You can't just focus on defense, you have to look for opportunities to attack and put some pressure on her."

"What should I do?" Ye Jun thought to himself that Lin Ning had actually reached the Huafu level. Now I have to use all my strength even when defending. How can I have the spare time to counterattack?

"Just spray the Glazed Fire everywhere so she can't see where you are, right?" Yan Yu suggested. "You can only defend yourself anyway, so why not be more thorough? Spread the sea of fire over a large area and force her out of range of her spiritual sense."

Ye Jun immediately hesitated.

If I use the Xuanguang Ruler to defend with all my strength, if Lin Ning accidentally reveals a flaw, I still have a chance to turn defeat into victory; but if I use the Lingguang Liuli Fire to isolate the inside and the outside, then she won't be able to see me and I won't be able to hit her, and the game will be forced to a draw.

I'm so pissed! If the Red Dust Hundred Worlds Diagram hadn't been detained at the research base, I wouldn't have fought like this with Lin Ning!
Thinking about it in his mind, he used all his strength and activated the magic weapon, the glass lamp, violently spraying glass fire everywhere.

Lin Ning hadn't expected her to be so shameless. You know, while the Dividing Cloud Bagua Step can dodge attacks, it doesn't make you immune to them. "Because you can't hit me, you're using this method to force a draw. I despise you!"

She simply gave up the advantage of two-handed sword-controlling for the time being, and controlled the Green Bamboo Sword to fly into the air, trying to get her sight past the wall of fire. However, Ye Jun seemed to have expected this, and shot a large piece of glass fire into the air, which made her almost unable to open her eyes.

Ning Ning quickly switched to a spiritual sense scan and glanced downwards, suddenly noticing Ye Jun's Heavenly Question Sword suddenly shooting through the sea of fire. She quickly used her Green Bamboo Sword to intercept it. As the two swords clashed, she suddenly saw the light of the Xuanguang Ruler flying towards her, trying to trap her. She quickly dodged it with a Hundred Birds Drifting to the Phoenix and landed back on the ground.

The burning glass fire not only blocked Lin Ning's sight, but also made Ye Jun unable to observe the surroundings, so he had to stop for the time being.

Lin Ning was just about to launch a exploratory attack by blindly firing into the sea of fire based on the position of Ye Jun she had seen earlier, when she suddenly heard Yan Yu's voice:
"You are a Sword Immortal of the Huafu Stage, yet you can't even defeat a cultivator of the Xisui Stage. What's going on?"

Lin Ning suddenly felt aggrieved: If it was a fight to the death, why would I be separated by this sea of fire? I could just fly in with my sword and kill her, wouldn't that be the end of it?
It's because I want to avoid casualties. It's hard to see in the sea of fire and it's hard to control my strength. I'm restricted and that's why I have to fight so hard!

Of course, given Lin Ning's personality, even if she knew the reason for her poor test results, she wouldn't try to defend herself. "Is this little test-taker trying to save face?" So she just kept quiet.

"Even if the sea of fire blocks your vision, it doesn't mean you can't attack." Yan Yu continued to fan the flames and offered suggestions, "The more you think about finding opportunities, the less likely your opponent will give you any. Why not try blindly shooting and sending your flying sword into the sea of fire and randomly hitting it? It might be effective."

"I thought of it before you said it!" Lin Ning couldn't help but say.

"Haha." Yan Yu was completely unconvinced, "Then you are very smart."

Lin Ning was immediately furious, and she simply vented all her anger on Ye Jun across from her. The Danyan Sword shot into the glazed sea of fire, then swept and slashed aimlessly everywhere.

White crane spreads its wings! White crane spreads its wings! White crane spreads its wings!

Ye Jun was quietly taking pills to restore his true energy, but he saw the Danyan Sword suddenly pass through the sea of fire from somewhere, and then another White Crane Spread Wings swept over. He wanted to dodge but it was too late, and he took the blow with the Xuanguang Ruler.

hit!
Lin Ning would not give her any chance and immediately commanded the Danyan Sword to attack in that direction, as if to vent all the anger in her heart.

Damn it! Ye Jun! How dare you! Plot against! My! Captain!
Ye Jun was slashed rapidly by the Danyan Sword at close range and was unable to escape for a while. The Xuanguang ruler shield was broken and repaired, and repaired and broken again. It took all his strength just to maintain the defense. How could he have time to activate the glass lamp?

Soon the sea of fire completely receded. Yan Yu had just finished the last bite of potato chips and patted the powder off his hands.

The winner is decided! Ningning has proven she's qualified to pursue me, but Ye Jun still needs to keep working hard!
