I manage female characters in all the heavens.

A beautiful woman, dressed in a magnificent red robe with gold trim, exuding both languidness and domineering confidence, leaned against the railing of the boat. Looking down from her high perch, she raised a delicate wine jug, took a sip, and said:

"So ruthless at such a young age. People just mocked you a few times, and you wanted to kill them. You are utterly unscrupulous, disregard human life, and are lawless."

"Tell me, which branch of my cult do you belong to? Someone as talented as you shouldn't be buried here. I'm going to promote you."

As she spoke, she took another swig of wine, which spilled down her slender neck, leaving glittering marks on her fair skin before finally disappearing into her deep, towering abyss, wetting her clothes.

Yue Lingshan tilted her head, her bright, large eyes blinking with curiosity, and asked:

"Dongfang Bubai?"

"Pfft!" The woman spat out a mouthful of wine, incredulous: "You can recognize this at a glance?!"

Good heavens, after roaming the martial world for so long, I have always appeared before the world as a man, dressed as a man, and even wearing a human skin mask.

Having recently mastered my supernatural skills, I have nothing to fear anymore. I decided to shed my disguise today and go out as a woman to have some fun, and incidentally, to kill and demoralize Lao Ren. However, I was recognized at a glance.

Is this reasonable? !

"How did you recognize me?" Dongfang Bubai shouted sharply, countless names flashing through his mind as he pondered who had seen through his secrets and spread it around.

Yue Lingshan said matter-of-factly, "Red clothes, luxurious, arrogant, domineering, and she's a woman."

"If you were a man, I would hesitate and not be sure, but since you are a woman, then you can only be Dongfang Bubai."

There are many versions of Dongfang Bubai, some are male, some are female, and some are male who has completely turned into a woman, each with its own characteristics.

Red clothes, nobility, arrogance, and domineering presence—these traits are not uncommon in a man, and there is no shortage of such people in the martial arts world.

But if all these characteristics were concentrated in one woman, "Yue Lingshan" couldn't think of any other possibility.

Dongfang Bubai was stunned. Yue Lingshan's tone was so matter-of-fact that she felt like she was so famous and unique, and that it was reasonable for her to be recognized at a glance.

But she quickly realized something was wrong. This was the first time she had ever worn this look before. How did it become so well-known?

How dare you try to fool me!

"Little girl, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences. You know who I am, yet you still dare not to tell me honestly. It seems you're tired of living." Dongfang Bubai sneered, and with a flick of his wrist, the wine pot shot out, striking "Yue Lingshan" directly on the forehead.

If that hits, I'll get a huge bump on my head!

Yue Lingshan didn't want to get up, so she swung her fishing rod and smashed the wine pot in mid-air.

The two forces clashed, unleashing tremendous power. The wine exploded in the air, spraying out droplets, half of which swept back to Dongfang Bubai, while the other half splashed towards Yue Lingshan.

Dongfang Bubai's eyes lit up: "Impressive skill!"

She waved her wide sleeves, her powerful and masculine energy stirring the void and gathering all the wine. Then, with a palm strike, the wine transformed into a water arrow that shot out, instantly piercing the thick hull of the boat and heading straight for "Yue Lingshan's" chest.

Yue Lingshan was very unhappy. If the wine really splashed onto her chest and soaked her skirt, making it semi-transparent, wouldn't that reveal her private parts?

She's still just a child!

You actually attacked a girl here! Dongfang Bubai, you're a real scoundrel! This is indecent assault on a young girl, and you'll go to jail for it!

She swung her fishing rod swiftly, the long fishing line swirling in the air, precisely intercepting the thousands of spilled wine drops.

These drops of alcohol were not dispersed or evaporated by the fishing line; instead, they were carried away by the line and swirled in the air, forming a thin, rapidly rotating curtain of water that blocked the water jet.

The water curtain was as thin as a cicada's wing and as light as a willow catkin, swaying in the wind in the air. It seemed to have no defensive capabilities whatsoever and could be broken with the slightest touch.

But when the water arrow hits it, the water curtain concaves and covers it, instantly enveloping the water arrow.

The water arrow, with its extremely penetrating power, could even pierce through wooden planks several centimeters thick, but it failed to penetrate the water curtain. It merely propelled the water forward a short distance before its force was completely neutralized and it merged into the water curtain.

Dongfang Bubai praised again: "Good, the seemingly thin water curtain is actually interwoven with invisible but tough threads. You used softness to overcome hardness and neutralize my attack. You have some skill!"

Despite being praised, Yue Lingshan was not happy; it was not in her nature to take a beating without fighting back.

Dongfang Bubai is indeed a peerless master in the martial arts world; she certainly couldn't win at this moment.

But for Dongfang Bubai to defeat her would be no easy task; there was no difference between them.

With the protection of the Mingyu Divine Skill, which far surpasses the Sunflower Manual, even though her power level is still far behind, the characteristics of the Mingyu Skill make her power consumption much lower than others, so she no longer needs to be timid and afraid of Dongfang Bubai.

I can't defeat you, but you shouldn't think you can easily defeat me either. Let's see who can handle this!

Chapter 83 The Demonic Cult's Traitors Must Devour Their Master

"Eat my power to split Mount Hua!"

"Yue Lingshan" shouted, swung her fishing rod, and a curtain of water swirled around her body several times before transforming into a disc that swept towards Dongfang Bubai.

"That's not how you split Mount Hua!" Dongfang Bubai rolled his eyes. You're clearly sweeping away an entire army!

Miss Yue didn't care about her at all. Who knows more about Mount Hua, you or me?

The water disc looked weak, after all, how much force could a little water have? But in reality, there was a fishing line infused with Mingyu's true energy moving at high speed, with amazing cutting power.

Furthermore, because it is connected to the fishing line and the fishing rod, it can be flexibly controlled within a distance of more than ten meters, allowing for chasing and cutting.

shhhhhh!

In an instant, the mast of Dongfang Bubai's ship was cut off, then a piece of the ship's side was completely cut off and fell into the water, and then the tables and chairs on it were split in two in an instant.

Dongfang Bubai spun and leaped, dodging repeatedly at incredible speed. The water disc couldn't catch up with her at all and could only slice her boat into pieces.

"Are you going to fight or cause trouble?" Dongfang Bubai was getting angry. This was her property, even if it was just a drop in the ocean, it was still money!

She stopped dodging, and her Sunflower True Qi appeared in her palm. She unleashed a palm strike of extreme strength and yang energy, smashing the water basin that had been crisscrossing the sky.

boom!

Yin and Yang, cold and hot, two equally domineering true energies clashed fiercely, unleashing primordial power.

The surrounding water surface exploded one after another under the powerful splash of energy, churning up thousands of water droplets that poured down.

The small boat "Yue Lingshan" was unable to stay stable due to the violent ripples and began to rock violently, trying to throw her off the boat.

But Miss Yue was a pillar of strength; even if the boat capsized, she wouldn't. She stood tall and firm on the boat, weathering the storm.

Water cascaded down like a torrential downpour, but it didn't touch the two of them at all; it was either deflected or evaporated by the energy emanating from their bodies.

The two experts, one tall and one short, one big and one small, one in red and one in green, stood motionless, staring at each other from seven or eight meters apart.

Suddenly, the large ship beneath Dongfang Bubai's feet let out a mournful cry and, under her helpless gaze, it disintegrated and fell apart with a crash.

Yue Lingshan raised her head high, held up her fishing rod, and cheered, "My victory!"

Dongfang Bubai lightly tapped the scattered wooden blocks, and his red figure soared through the air, landing leisurely on the "Yue Lingshan" boat, standing proudly on the awning.

She looked down at "Yue Lingshan" who had turned around and was looking at her, and said unhappily, "If I hadn't given you a few moves before, and you had destroyed my ship, you wouldn't have had a chance to win."

That's the truth. If she had destroyed the water basin attack immediately to prevent it from damaging the ship, her ship wouldn't have fallen apart during the clash just now.

Yue Lingshan sneered: "Winning is winning, losing is losing. Why are you making such a fuss? Are you a sore loser?"

I admit you have a point, but like I said, are you a sore loser?

Dongfang Bubai blushed slightly, a rare occurrence, but quickly shook his head and chuckled.

"Little thing, you're sharp-tongued. I didn't know our sect had such a talented little devil like you. Who are you, envoy, hall master, or elder's disciple?"

Dongfang Bubai jumped off the boat and walked to Yue Lingshan's side, asking with great interest.

Previously, I just thought this little girl was ruthless and lawless, which was exactly the kind of outstanding talent our sect needed. She was a prodigy. With some guidance and training, she would surely become an outstanding demon in the future. Her talent was truly visible to the naked eye.

It turned out that once they fought, they realized that this was not some promising young talent, but a pillar of the Demonic Sect with both virtue and talent, a peerless demon, who was almost second only to Dongfang Bubai!

What a wonderful surprise!

The joy of mastering her divine skills, the pleasure of being herself again, and the delight of encountering talented individuals—all these were experienced by her within a few days. It was as if auspicious omens had descended from the heavens, foreshadowing that she would surely dominate the martial arts world for all eternity.

Today is such a lucky day! So much happiness has come together, she's overjoyed!

Overjoyed, she didn't bother with formalities and sat down at the small table on the boat, poured herself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

Ah, when I'm in a good mood, everything tastes delicious. I'll drink some more!

Yue Lingshan's eyes lit up, but she didn't say anything.

The boatman, who had been watching the show for a while, was taken aback and knelt down with a thud, bursting into tears:

"Master, don't drink it! It's poisoned!"

Dongfang Bubai was taken aback: "Where did the poison come from?"

The boatman, his face full of shame, stammered, "I...I threw it..."

Dongfang Bubai remained silent, his eyes dark and unfathomable.

How dare you devour your master!

"Hahahahaha!"

On the small boat, Yue Lingshan, carrying her precious fishing rod, pointed at Dongfang Bubai and laughed so hard she almost fell over.

From the moment the boatman approached her, she could tell there was something wrong with him.

She possessed extraordinary intuition and could tell that the boatman was skilled in martial arts. The fact that such a person would come to West Lake to pull boats and even try to do business with her immediately aroused her suspicion.

Adhering to the principle of "we'll deal with whatever comes our way," she pretended not to notice and decided to see what the boatman was up to.

The poisoned tea was provided to her by the boatman as a complimentary gift for the boat trip. She was experienced enough to guess that it was poisoned and would never drink it.

Unexpectedly, Dongfang Bubai, unaware of the situation, was very generous and immediately drank the poisoned tea, almost emptying the entire pot.

Is it really that good?

What was even more unexpected was that the boatman was actually one of Dongfang Bubai's men. Hearing that "Yue Lingshan" was inquiring about Plum Manor, he planned to take the opportunity to capture her and interrogate her, and secretly sent a message to report this news.

No wonder the West Lake is so big, yet it happened to be Miss Dongfang; it turns out she'd fallen into a wolf's den.

Listening to the boatman's explanation, Dongfang Bubai's face turned pale and then red.

The target wasn't poisoned, but the boss was. This is no longer a matter of poor performance; it's rebellion, deceiving heaven, and devouring one's master!

"Where's the antidote? Give it to me." Dongfang Bubai suppressed his anger and decided to spare his underling's life.

After all, there was nothing wrong with her job; it was she who jumped out and caused trouble, which ended up hurting herself.

Although Dongfang Bubai is domineering, she is not an unreasonable person. She has a clear sense of right and wrong, and she is fair in rewarding and punishing without holding grudges.

The boatman, with a mournful face, said, "This is a drug that temporarily stagnates the meridians, suppresses true energy, and paralyzes the limbs, rendering the victim unable to resist. It only lasts for half a day, and there's no antidote needed..."

The implication is that there is no antidote.
