The tactic of overwhelming the opponent head-on with the domineering and fiery main body, and launching sneak attacks with the eerie and sharp clones, is simple but absolutely effective... except against Emerald.
Because Amelie not only possesses a natural soul body that allows her to directly see Black Dress Princess Heart Rain, but she is also the former owner of the longsword in Black Dress Princess Heart Rain's hand, and they still maintain a lingering connection. She can sense Black Dress Princess Heart Rain's location at any time.
The assassin, unable to conceal his actions, posed no threat. Emerald merely kept an eye on the stealthy black-dressed Himeko, while her main attention remained focused on Himeko in the red dress.
After mastering the Netherworld Soul Technique, Ji Xinyu's fire-attribute righteous cultivation technique also reached its peak under the effect of her own innate divine power, making her Blazing Overlord Spear much more powerful. Even from more than ten meters away, Amelie felt like she was about to burst into flames.
With a slight glint in her golden right eye, a shield-shaped sacred crystal appeared out of thin air in the path of Ji Xinyu's charge, attempting to block her.
Red-skirted Ji Xinyu showed no sign of slowing down; instead, the flames on her body intensified. She used the three-tenths of her strength that she had originally intended to use for a change of move, directly shattering the Holy Crystal. The tip of her spear had already reached Ameliete's front, almost touching the golden patterns on her magical costume.
But that was the end of it, because Emerald's right hand had already gripped the tip of the flaming spear tightly from the side.
It wasn't a direct grip, but rather a loose grip with the palm about 1 centimeter away from the spear tip, yet a powerful holy sealing spell was concentrated in the palm, preventing the fire-tasseled spear from advancing even an inch further.
Seeing this, Ji Xinyu in the red dress wanted to retract her spear and change her move, but suddenly found that the sacred crystal fragments that she had shattered during her charge had reassembled and were all stuck to her body. They would also seep into her clothes through the gaps in her red palace dress, and would start to burn as soon as they touched her skin.
"This is...no good!"
Sensing that the magic power within each fragment of the sacred crystal was definitely not weak, Ji Xinyu in the red dress decisively gave up on wrestling with Amelie to reclaim her weapon. Instead, she released the gun handle from her hand, removed her red palace dress, and instantly moved hundreds of meters away.
Boom boom boom boom!
Violent explosions of divine attributes occurred one after another, completely shattering the red palace dress that Ji Xinyu had abandoned. They even blasted out Ji Xinyu, who was stealthily approaching in a black dress, forcing her to abandon her sneak attack and look for another opportunity.
Even though Ji Xinyu had managed to dodge hundreds of meters away, she was not completely spared. She was still hit by the few holy crystals that were already attached to her skin. The only red-based gold-patterned bodice and other close-fitting clothes she had left were tattered, and obvious burn marks appeared on her fair skin.
"...Senior sister, you are so cruel."
As Ji Xinyu put on the golden chainmail she had worn when they first met, she glared at him with her watery eyes, feigning resentment:
"Senior sister, do you know how much effort I put into taking care of my skin? Your attack just now was really rough, it hurt so much."
“A naughty junior sister should be taught a lesson with pain.”
Amelie didn't pursue, but instead strengthened the sacred seal in her hand. Using the skills she had honed while making the Squid Man Revealing Potion, she directly sealed Ji Xinyu's Fire Tassel Spear into a nanometer-sized sacred crystal:
"As for the skin damage, junior sister, there's no need to worry... I, your senior sister, also know a little about how to use magic to treat and repair the skin. I can examine you inch by inch and make sure I don't miss any spot."
After confirming that the sealed Fire Tassel Spear had temporarily and completely severed its connection with Ji Xinyu, Amelie chuckled softly:
"Do you want to continue, junior sister? For a martial artist like you, having your weapon taken away should be considered a defeat in battle, right?"
"Senior sister, what you're describing are the rules for sparring between reputable sects. We two demonic cultivators don't follow those rules~"
Ji Xinyu's fighting spirit showed no sign of waning. She then reached out and grasped, and another identical fire-tasseled spear appeared in her hand.
"And your senior sister doesn't think I only have one weapon, does she?"
"...Your spear is actually mass-produced?"
Amelie was slightly surprised, as she was certain that the sealed Fire Tassel Spear was still there and had not been taken back by Ji Xinyu.
This Fire Tassel Spear is definitely considered a top-grade divine weapon in the Tianyun Empire. Given the meticulous and perfectionist philosophy of immortal sects in forging magical artifacts, it shouldn't be mass-produced.
"Mass production is not really an option, but preparing a few spares is still no problem. After all, I am a royal princess, Senior Sister."
Ji Xinyu swung the newly drawn spear a few times, adjusted her grip, and once again charged towards Emery, becoming one with the spear:
"This time it won't be so easy, senior sister."
Emery had already witnessed the powerful defensive capabilities of the golden chainmail when the two first clashed last year. Coupled with Ji Xinyu's rapid improvement in strength over the past year, it was indeed unlikely that she could be easily defeated as before.
Not only that, but the black-clad Princess Xinyu seemed to know that her stealth was useless, so she stopped being an assassin and instead launched a strong attack from another direction, once again forming a pincer movement against Emerald with her main body.
"...That's interesting."
Emerald's eyes finally turned serious.
Ji Xinyu's innate ability is that she can cultivate both righteous and evil techniques simultaneously. When one technique improves, the other technique will also improve in sync. In other words, she can enjoy the benefits of both the fast cultivation speed of demonic techniques and the solid foundation of righteous techniques.
However, Ji Xinyu can only cultivate two techniques. She couldn't use them simultaneously before. When she sparred with Amelie last year, she had to switch between states during the battle.
After Amelie received Ji Xinyu's innate divine power, she successfully synchronized her cultivation of holy magic and necromancy. However, that was all she achieved. Initially, she was still unable to use both types of magic simultaneously and needed to switch her own state to do so.
It wasn't until Marcy helped Amelite obtain a third fusion organ, which upgraded the abilities of the second fusion organ, that Amelite was able to use both holy and necromancy magic simultaneously.
At this point, the strength of Ji Xinyu's innate divine power on Amelie had actually surpassed that of Ji Xinyu herself.
However, Ji Xinyu was also a favored daughter of heaven. She could not achieve the same result as Amelie, who could make two opposing spiritual energies coexist and be used together in her body. So she took a different approach and created a clone, which used the power of demonic techniques to achieve the same result.
click!
The flaming spear struck Amelie's sacred shield once again, and the blow caused the surface of the sacred shield to crack, threatening to shatter at any moment.
Seeing this, Ji Xinyu was overjoyed and once again used all the power she had originally reserved for a change of move, wanting to break through Ameliete's defense in one go.
However, Emerald's charge at Ji Xinyu, who was wearing golden chainmail, was clearly just a delaying tactic, with no intention of strengthening the shield. Instead, she used her radiant golden right eye to look at Ji Xinyu in a black dress who was slashing at her from another direction.
There was only one golden chainmail; if the main body wore it, then the clone wouldn't have one to wear. Emery clearly intended to target the clone first.
The sacred crystal that had previously blasted Ji Xinyu's true form away reappeared, blocking Ji Xinyu's path as she charged forward with her sword, attempting to repeat the same trick.
Ji Xinyu had considered the possibility that this was a feint, but her soul clone was more afraid of holy attribute attacks than her main body.
The main body only suffered minor injuries from the explosion, but it's hard to say what would happen to the soul clone if it were hit.
So, after thinking for less than a tenth of a second, Himeko in the black dress decisively raised her body and planned to jump over the Holy Crystal and give Amelie another Dragon Ascension Sword.
Just as Ji Xinyu in the black dress jumped, a dark purple halo suddenly appeared beneath her feet. Then, dozens of dark purple, semi-transparent arms, identical to those of Emeryte's right hand, emerged from the halo and reached out to grab Ji Xinyu. They easily grabbed her ankles, and then grabbed even more.
Soon, Black Dress Ji Xinyu's entire body was covered by Amelie's magical hands. The palms of those hands not only had a powerful suction force that could absorb Black Dress Ji Xinyu's spiritual power, but also carried the magical concept that all things must die, thus depleting Black Dress Ji Xinyu's physical strength.
Even those magical hands themselves didn't just hold onto Ji Xinyu in the black dress; they also naturally used exquisite water magic dueling techniques to target Ji Xinyu's vital points.
This move could instantly kill even a high-defense, high-HP being like Yulia, so the already fragile clone, Black Dress Himeko, was even less able to withstand it.
"Goo!"
In the blink of an eye, Ji Xinyu in the black dress completely lost her ability to resist.
The black-clad Ji Xinyu is Ji Xinyu's soul clone. When she is attacked, her main body will also feel the same way. This is clearly written in "The Netherworld Soul Decision". It is because of this that Amelite chose this tactic to finish the battle quickly.
Sure enough, Ji Xinyu's breathing suddenly became heavy, and her gaze towards Amelie changed from fierce fighting spirit to pink hearts. Her charge turned into an embrace.
The golden chainmail that the owner had just put on was removed by himself, and the sharp, blazing fire-tasseled spear was also casually tossed aside.
Ji Xinyu's true form embraced Amelie tightly, leaving her fiery breath on the gorgeous magical costume:
"Senior sister?~~ I miss you so much... You bad guy, you said you'd see me once a year and you really haven't visited me for a whole year? Do you know you almost killed me~~"
Since she's calling him "senior sister" so softly, it's clear that Ji Xinyu has lost her will to fight.
Seeing this, Amelie grabbed Ji Xinyu and then wrapped herself and Ji Xinyu together in the soft and comfortable wing ball from both sides, slowly descending from the sky onto the sea.
A few minutes later, the winged sphere opened again, and dozens of celestial feathers wove a large bed on the sea surface with soft holy light.
Amelie's dress changed from her magical costume back to a crimson gown, and Ji Xinyu also put on a new bright red palace dress... The two of them clung tightly together, like two flames that had merged and become even hotter and brighter.
"I concede defeat. I'm still the junior sister this year."
Ji Xinyu readily admitted her defeat. Her bright red lips had a pinkish tinge, which was from Ameliette's lipstick.
Of course, Emery's cherry-pink lips also had a touch of bright red.
"Not just this year."
Amelie stared into Ji Xinyu's eyes:
"You can't become a senior sister anymore, right?"
"...Hmph, arrogant woman."
Ji Xinyu bit her lip, muttering a resentful complaint, but didn't argue back. Instead, she continued to rub against Ameliete.
"But that's part of your charm, Senior Sister... I think I understand why even someone like Dao Ancestor was defeated by your seduction."
"...Huh? What do you mean I defeated the Dao Ancestor using a honey trap?"
Emerald restrained her increasingly restless junior sister, glaring at her and saying:
"Explain yourself!"
"Isn't that right? My master's wife said it herself~~"
Ji Xinyu chuckled, her face full of innocence:
“A few months ago, my master’s wife suddenly contacted my master and even asked him to call me over first so we could listen together. Then she vividly recounted your great achievements to us, senior sister.”
"She said that Dao Ancestor's clone suddenly appeared in the Federation, secretly manipulated the election, stirred up the Federation's turmoil, and issued all sorts of prank orders, almost turning the entire Allen Federation into a mess... while the Federation was afraid of Dao Ancestor's power and could not even resist."
"In the end, it was you, Senior Sister, who stepped forward and entered the Dao Ancestor's room alone. You used your beauty to defeat the Dao Ancestor, saving the people of the Federation from suffering and becoming the saintess in their eyes... Am I right?"
"Uh……"
Amelie was speechless.
The old lich's stories, though the wording sounded strange, didn't seem to have any fictional elements... Ugh, damn literary embellishment! It's ruined the flavor!
"It seems it's true!"
Seeing Emery's reaction, Ji Xinyu became even more excited:
"Quickly, quickly... Senior Sister, how did you use your beauty trap on the Dao Ancestor back then? I also want to be attacked by your beauty trap, Senior Sister! Quickly use your beauty trap to torture me severely!"
"!"
Emery finally lost her composure, her eyes flashing with anger.
This junior sister is too naughty; she needs to be taught a good lesson first.
Thinking this, Amelie cleverly flipped Ji Xinyu's body over, just like a master pastry chef kneading dough, turning Ji Xinyu from lying in her arms to lying on her lap, exactly like a naughty child being spanked by their parents.
At the same time, a large number of invisible ribbons flew out, binding Himeko in the air with all her might, just like a tentacle monster bullying a defeated magical girl, tying her up in a rather charming pose and hanging her on the sea.
"Goo!"
The simultaneous attack on both the main body and the clone created a strange sensation, like stepping on one foot while ascending to heaven with the other, which made Ji Xinyu make a very pleasant sound.
Amelie looked at her junior sister lying on her lap, gently licked her lips, and then raised one hand upwards. The heat of holy magic and the pain of necromancy intertwined in her palm, and then her hand slammed down.
Snapped!
Chapter 338 Senior Sister and Junior Sister
"I'll teach you to flirt with my Yulia!"
Snapped!
"I'll teach you to have designs on your sister-in-law!"
Snapped!
"I told you to go to the elven brothel as soon as you arrived!"
Snapped!
"I'll let you have your way with my female secretary!"
Snapped!
……
"I'm telling you to blink your left eye first when you greet me!"
Snapped!
As Amelie listed Ji Xinyu's crimes, she kept slapping her, like a young mother disciplining a naughty daughter, giving Ji Xinyu a severe lesson. Each slap, even through the red dress, made a crisp and loud sound as it hit Ji Xinyu.
While personally disciplining Ji Xinyu's main body, Amelie's invisible ribbon was also busy. After binding Ji Xinyu's soul clone tightly, she separated a separate ribbon and whipped the black-dressed Ji Xinyu like a soft whip.
The soul is inherently more sensitive than the physical body, and when Emery slapped him, she also used some amusing tricks involving holy and necromancy.
This caused Ji Xinyu to feel a burning pain where she was hit. As the pain intensified, it started to feel hot. After a while, she felt a tingling sensation, and finally, the tingling sensation even felt a little pleasurable...
Anyway, she wasn't hit many times. Ji Xinyu was like dough in a chef's hands, helplessly being slapped by Amelie. She could only respond by making crisp sounds and creating waves like smooth dough when she was hit.
While Amelite was educating Ji Xinyu about love, more than ten Abyss Mermaids who followed Xia Sha also arrived.
They brought seashells, corals, and other soft materials like silk or cotton, and skillfully built a delicate little house on the sea surface in just a few tens of minutes.
By the time the little house was finished, Amelie had pretty much had her fill of fighting.
She stretched comfortably a few times, moved her arms and legs, then put one arm around each of Ji Xinyu in the red dress and the other around her in the black dress, and walked into the small house, closing the door behind her.
Then, waves arose out of nowhere—the sea was calm, but the little house began to shake violently as if it were experiencing a storm, almost falling apart several times. Fortunately, the dark mermaids who were watching nearby used magic to repair it in time.
