Dual cultivation makes you stronger, everyone else is a prodigy, and I'm the only one slacking

Faced with the combined attack of a Golden Core cultivator and three Foundation Establishment cultivators, Sun Lan was forced to retreat repeatedly.

The entire battlefield was in ruins, with deep craters blasted into the ground by the violent spiritual energy amidst the roaring sounds.

Su Man'er leaped into the air and struck down with her palm, the shockwave sweeping outwards like a tidal wave. When the dust settled, Sun Lan was found clutching her chest, buried deep in the mud and ruins.

His face was deathly pale, and he coughed up blood as he struggled to pull his body out of the ground.

Before he could pull his leg out, a figure hovered above his head. The oppressive aura froze him in place, rendering him unable to move.

The mountaintop in the distance.

Shenshui Shupeng had originally been simply fanning himself and sipping tea, with no intention of personally getting involved in the rescue. However, his subordinates had suffered such a crushing defeat that if he didn't intervene, he would lose another key general.

Just as he was about to make a move, he saw Bai Rongling opposite him slowly get up. Shen Shui paused and raised an eyebrow.

"What? Is Ninth Young Master also interested in getting his hands dirty?"

Bai Rongling said calmly, "Yes, I saw it... a face I've seen before."

Before he finished speaking, he had already flashed to the battlefield. As their auras drew near, Yu Luoning and the others immediately turned around and looked at the newcomer warily.

From the perspective of the group, this person truly possessed an extraordinary bearing.

A perfectly fitted moon-white and blue gauze robe accentuated her broad shoulders and narrow waist, creating a stunning figure.

His robes fluttered in the wind, appearing completely untouched by worldly dust. He wore a white veil on his head, the hanging white gauze completely obscuring his face, making it impossible to see his features.

Just as he approached, the catalog of handsome men in Yu Luoning's mind lit up.

[Handsome Men's Guide - Bai Rongling]

[Copyable list: Water Release Technique, Where there is water, there is me; all water is my body.]

[The Water of Oblivion: Can be used to maintain a clear mind and prevent the invasion of inner demons and alluring temptations such as the Love Potion.]

[The Primordial Soft Light Robe: Grants immunity to attacks from those two realms above oneself.]

[Transferring of Damage: Can transfer physical and magical damage.]

【…】

At this moment, Yu Luoning, who had swept through all the copyable secret techniques, was completely bewildered.

Holy crap, this person is practically a walking copycat.

She swallowed hard, and couldn't help but think of the few items in the Shi Shangxu copy list.

There is no harm without comparison.

Cousin, it turns out you really are from a poor family.

Shocked, Yu Luoning felt a secret pang of sympathy for Shi Shangxu, but even more so, a burning desire for him.

There are so many things about this man whose face is obscured that could be copied, but I have no idea what his true appearance is.

What if it's an ugly person?

At this moment, the two sides faced off in an eerie atmosphere, completely unaware that Yu Luoning, standing in the far corner, had already let her thoughts drift to the horizon.

In the silence, Yu Luoning coughed lightly, "You must be the Palace Master of the Divine Water Palace?"

Bai Rongling raised an eyebrow slightly. Shen Shui Shupeng, who was standing to the side, blinked and was about to answer when he was stopped by raising his hand.

Bai Rongling's cold voice came from behind the veil, "Oh, the two sects are at odds, and a great enemy is at hand. You haven't even seen my face, so what makes you think I'm the Palace Master of the Divine Water Palace? Aren't you afraid that I'm also a demonic sorcerer in disguise?"

Yu Luoning glanced at Shi Shangxu and continued,

"You are a heretic, covered in blood, and exudes a murderous aura. Your arrival has made the surrounding air feel fresher. Although I have not seen your face, judging from your clear and flawless demeanor, you must be the brilliant and beautiful Palace Master of the Divine Water Palace."

After saying that, Su Man'er and the others did not say anything more.

None of them had ever seen what the Palace Master of the Divine Water Palace looked like, but they all felt that Yu Luoning's words made sense.

Everyone's brows furrowed in solemnity, as they hadn't expected that a high-ranking member of the Divine Water Palace would be present on such a small battlefield.

Meanwhile, Shenshui Shupeng, standing to the side, was also quite speechless.

This Young Master Bai Jiu truly lives up to his reputation. Wherever Shen Shui Shu Peng goes, he is a dragon among men, the focus of everyone's attention. But when he stands next to Bai Jiu, who doesn't even show his face, he is completely overshadowed by Bai Jiu, who makes him look like a lowly errand boy.

Bai Rongling listened to these words, her usually indifferent eyes looking down at her with utter indifference.

He had heard far too many flattering words; they were nothing but the clumsy rhetoric of vulgar people.

"Stop with the pleasantries and tell me. You killed people from the Divine Water Palace, how are you going to settle this?"

Bai Rongling's voice was very pleasant, but it lacked any warmth.

Before Yu Luoning and the other three could react, a flash of moon-white light appeared before their eyes, and an extremely terrifying pressure descended like Mount Tai, with only Su Man'er able to withstand it.

Bai Rongling pointed at Yu Luoning and laughed, "I only need you to do one thing for me, and I will let you go."

Yu Luoning was slightly taken aback: "My strength is meager, how can I help you?"

"I just need to let you search my soul."

As soon as he finished speaking, a suction force pulled Yu Luoning over.

The next moment, a pair of extremely beautiful fingers gripped her neck.

"Ningning!" A furious roar pierced the air. Shi Shangxu's eyes were bloodshot. He no longer cared about the difference in their cultivation levels. His spiritual power surged in reverse, and with red eyes, he swung his sword at a Moon-Slaying Technique.

"Ants!"

Bai Rongling didn't even raise his head. With a flick of his fair, jade-like left hand, a powerful wave lifted Shi Shangxu a hundred meters away.

Upon seeing this, all of Yu Luoning's previous envy vanished.

It is unforgivable to bully her man.

On the other side, Shi Shangxu coughed up a mouthful of blood. He stared intently in Yu Luoning's direction, struggling to get up.

Seeing this, Shenshui Shupeng, who was standing behind Bai Rongling, clicked his tongue twice and said, "How affectionate! Young master, you are too cold-blooded! I think we should send this young couple to reunite later."

Upon hearing this, Su Man'er coldly replied, "We are all disciples of the Dongbao Upper Sect. As soon as we die, our life soul tablets will light up immediately. The sect leader and elders will definitely know that you are the murderers who killed us, and at that time, your Shenshui Palace will not have an easy time either."

Shenshui Shupeng clicked his tongue, "I was wondering why you were so arrogant, killing several cultivators from my Shenshui Palace. It turns out you're backed by the Dongbao Upper Sect."

Meanwhile, Bai Rongling had no interest in anything else; his purpose in coming down to the mortal realm was precisely to find out the whereabouts of the man in purple.

In the images that Bai Zhu had previously transmitted, besides the man in purple, there was also this woman.

The next moment, Bai Rongling's icy fingertips touched Yu Luoning's forehead.

His voice was gentle, tinged with amusement, "Don't move. I won't kill you; I just want to take a look at your memories."

Yu Luoning's eyes widened in terror.

Damn it, judging from her memory would be worse than killing her.

The greatest dignity in a person's life is never how grand their funeral is, but rather that when they pass away, their phone is formatted with a single click.

The same applies to this situation.

The Soul Searching Technique can retrieve all the memories from her mind.

All those private secrets and shameful dark histories were laid bare, like watching a high-definition movie for the Soul Searchers.

How is this any different from running naked in front of others?

At this moment, no matter how much Yu Luoning resisted, a powerful and icy divine soul force irresistibly entered her sea of ​​consciousness.

The next moment, Yu Luoning became dizzy and trembled uncontrollably.

On the other side, Bai Rongling, who was forcibly searching the soul, thought she would see some boring memories of sect power struggles, murder and treasure hunting.

But when the soul completely merged into Yu Luoning's sea of ​​consciousness.

A scene of endless colors suddenly exploded before his eyes.

……this?

The first scene shows an extremely handsome man with white veils over his eyes and silver-white hair scattered on the stone surface.

The man and woman hold hands, their fingers intertwined and raised above their heads, displaying their close intimacy.

The man said, "Little darling, who is stronger, him or me?"

Bai Rongling: "..."

Bai Rongling sighed and quickly scanned the extremely intense scene.

Before the ninth young master of the Bai family, who had been innocent his whole life, could recover from this visual shock,

The scene suddenly shifts again...
