“What is the meaning of this, humans?!” The demon roared when it was unsealed for the second time.
“Nothing much. I just figured you could assist me in training my friends. If you can defeat my friends, I will let you walk free.” Yuan said.
“You think I will help livestocks like—”
“Demon Sealing Pulse!”
Chu Liuxiang shot a wave of demon sealing aura at the demon, creating a hole in its chest.
“YOU FUCKING LIVESTOCKS! HOW DARE YOU MESS WITH ME!?”
The demon released its loudest roar yet.
Its body suddenly began growing larger, and its killing intent soared.
It was enraged.
“The demon is enraged. It will now be much stronger than before, and it will also take more effort to seal.” Yuan warned them.
“Demon Sealing Strike!”
Li Jinxi approached the demon and confronted it with her greatsword. Although there was still a hint of fear within her eyes, she was able to suppress it.
While Li Jinxi fought the demon, keeping its attention on her, Hong Xiuquan and Xi Murong would support her by attacking the demon from its blindspots.
As for Chu Liuxiang, she would attack whenever possible from afar.
‘They have pretty good teamwork despite this being their first day fighting together.’ Yuan thought to himself as he watched them fight.
‘But they will need more than that to defeat the demon this time around.’
BANG!
Li Jinxi was suddenly sent flying by the demon’s attack.
“Jinxi! Are you okay?!” Xi Murong shouted as he took over her spot.
“Yes, I am fine. I just wasn’t expecting so much power from it. Looks like I will have to get a little serious as well.”
Li Jinxi’s body suddenly began emitting a red aura.
“T-That technique! She’s using it now?! What if she goes on a rampage like before?!” Wang Ming exclaimed.
“She’ll defeat both the demon and the others at this rate!” Shi Lang cried out loud.
“Yuan, you need to stop her before she goes crazy!” Wang Bingbing said to him.
“Huh? What’s wrong with her?” Yuan asked.
“You don’t remember what happened at the tournament? She will go crazy if she uses that technique for too long! When that happens, all hell will break loose! At least that’s what her family told us before we left!”
“Really? It looked like she had complete control over it during the disciple examination.” Yuan said.
“That’s in a video game and this is real life! I’m sure you can do things in Cultivation Online that you can’t do here, right?”
“Alright, I will stop her if things get out of hand. For now, let’s just see where this goes. Don’t forget, I stopped her during the competition.” Yuan smiled.
“Okay.”
Meanwhile, Li Jinxi continued to pressure the demon, deflecting all of its attack with her raw strength.
“Uhh… What should we do?” Hong Xiuquan turned to look at Xi Murong.
“Why are you asking me? There’s nothing we can do when she’s like that. We’ll only get in her way. In fact, she might even attack us if we get too close.” Xi Murong shrugged.
“Unbelievable… She’s already fighting the demon all by herself… She’s truly talented.” Chu Liuxiang mumbled in a dazed voice.
About ten minutes later, the demons stopped moving, as it’d turned into stone.
Li Jinxi had managed to seal the demon all by herself.
“Wow, she really did it…” Wang Ming mumbled in awe.
However, Li Jinxi wasn’t finished.
“Watch out!” Chu Liuxiang suddenly shouted.
“Huh?” Xi Murong turned around to see Li Jinxi running at him with her sword in the air, her eyes filled with bloodlust.
“I knew it! Yuan!” Wang Bingbing turned to look at him, but he was already on the move.
Clang!
Yuan appeared before Xi Murong to block Li Jinxi with the Empyrean Overlord.
“Wake up!”
Yuan swung his sword, sending Li Jinxi flying out the Demon Sealing Zone.
“Aaaah!” Li Jinxi roared, and her red aura started going even more out of control.
However, before she could cause any more harm to herself, Yuan used his movement technique to appear in front of her and gave her a good punch in the stomach, instantly knocking her unconscious.
After catching Li Jinxi’s body, Yuan said to the others, “We’ll stop here for today and continue our training tomorrow.”
“Thank god…” Wang Ming sighed in relief after hearing such words.
“I’m going to bring Jinxi back to her room.” Yuan said as he carried her like a princess.
“You’re going to leave the demon out here just like that? That’s insane!” The Manager approached him as he tried to leave.
“Don’t worry, the demon won’t go anywhere. It’ll remain sealed for a week with the strength of Jinxi’s demon sealing aura.” Yuan said.
“Absolutely not! I will not leave here until you kill that demon!” The Manager exclaimed.
“Be my guest. We have plenty of empty rooms in our household.” Yuan chuckled.
“Y-You…! Unbelievable!” The Manager stomped her feet in anger.
Sometime later, Yuan placed Li Jinxi on her bed so that she could rest.
However, right as he prepared to leave, he started hearing noises coming from behind, and it sounded like someone was groaning in pain.
“Jinxi? Are you okay? What’s happening to you?” Yuan rushed back to her side when he noticed that she was soaked in sweat.
“It… hurts…” She muttered in a low voice.
“Is this a backlash from using her technique? This didn’t happen before.”
After pondering for a second, Yuan rushed out of the room to find someone from the Six Spiritual Families.
He quickly ran into Wang Bingbing.
“Something’s wrong with Jinxi! She’s sweating buckets, and she appears to be in pain!”
“What?! It must be due to the technique that she used earlier! Senior Li warned us about it. That she might experience some backlash if she used it.”
“What should we do to calm her down?” Yuan then asked.
“I don’t know. Senior Li didn’t mention it, but I will immediately call her family.”
