No one had expected that the elders of the Tai Chu Sacred Land would turn into infants. Everyone was stunned.
Was this the result of drinking the Water of Life?
Everyone couldn't help but shudder. Fortunately, they hadn't touched it. Otherwise, they would have been unable to resist the urge to drink it and would have become helpless infants.
How terrifying!
Li Tianjue's eyes held a deeper meaning as he looked at Su Luo and said, "So you knew all along?"
No wonder she had let the people from the Tai Chu Sacred Land snatch it earlier.
"Senior Brother, the Water of Life is a good thing, but it's not meant to be eaten like this. It's their own fault for being so greedy," Su Luo blinked, a sly smile gracing her lips. She felt immensely pleased.
Looking at the few bewildered old infants, Shang Xie Shaoqing walked over with a laugh, "Hahahaha, interesting, interesting! So drinking this water not only grants immortality but also reverses aging..."
He grabbed the chubby leg of Elder Sun, who had turned into a baby, and held him upside down, spanking his bare bottom. "Elder Sun, weren't you the loudest one just now? You even dared to attack me? Now I'm spanking your bottom, try to fight back if you can!"
Spank, spank, spank!
Shang Xie Shaoqing laughed heartily as he spanked Elder Sun's bottom. Du Wei also ran over with glee, "Young Master, let me spank him a few times too. Look at this little bottom, so white and perky!"
Elder Sun was completely dumbfounded. His little hands flailed, his legs kicked, and his bottom was smacked with loud sounds. He was completely unable to resist!
Not only had he turned into an infant, but he was also being spanked in public. Sob sob sob...
It was so humiliating, he didn't want to live anymore!
"Wah..." Elder Sun burst into tears.
The other elders who had also become infants couldn't control their fear and cried even louder.
Some disciples of the Tai Chu Sacred Land had drunk less. Although they hadn't turned into infants, they had become children between three and five years old. Their clothes and pants no longer fit, and they stood there naked and at a loss.
The atmosphere at the scene shifted dramatically, becoming both comical and absurd.
Shui Qingyue and Shangguan Hanyu stood frozen, their minds blank.
How could this happen? What should they do?
"It's you, it's all you..."
Shui Qingyue trembled, her face contorted with fury. Her once exquisite and beautiful features twisted like a vengeful spirit as she glared at Su Luo. "Su Luo, what did you say about a good show just now? You knew all along, didn't you? You're so vicious!"
Shangguan Hanyu felt fortunate that he hadn't impulsively drunk the spring water. Filled with hatred, he said, "Senior Sister, I told you long ago to kill this woman, but you didn't believe me. Now so many elders have been harmed..."
"Shut up!"
Shui Qingyue slapped him back, screaming, "Are you blaming me? It's this bitch! She knew the spring water had problems but didn't say anything. She's the one who harmed us like this! Su Luo, I'm going to kill you, ah—!"
She turned and lunged at Su Luo, a ball of spiritual light igniting in her palm.
Li Tianjue abruptly blocked Su Luo, his eyes deep and stern, and struck Shui Qingyue with a palm.
Boom!
A violent surge of energy erupted. Even though Shui Qingyue held the Lotus Glazed Lamp, she had to evade. She could sense that despite Li Tianjue's cultivation being suppressed by the golden light, he was still not to be underestimated.
Shui Qingyue was both shocked and enraged, "Li Tianjue, are you really going to protect this bitch?"
"You're the bitch! As the Saintess of the Tai Chu Sacred Land, you spew vulgarities from your mouth. You have no manners," Su Luo said disdainfully, looking at Shui Qingyue. She then turned and tugged on Li Tianjue's sleeve, coquettishly saying, "Senior Brother, she cursed me... you have to avenge me!"
Li Tianjue knew Su Luo couldn't withstand the power of the Lotus Glazed Lamp. Although he didn't say anything, the concern in his eyes was palpable. He took a step forward, transforming into a roc and soaring out.
Seeing Li Tianjue charge out without hesitation, Shui Qingyue was also enraged and dealt a heavy blow.
However, even with the Lotus Lamp in hand and the power of the golden light weakening Li Tianjue, she could only fight him to a stalemate. Her hatred surged, "Li Tianjue, why do you protect her so much? What's so good about her that you treat me like this?!"
"She's better than you in every way."
Li Tianjue's expression was icy as he spoke only this one sentence and suddenly accelerated his movements.
Shui Qingyue was forced to retreat repeatedly, constantly dodging. Shangguan Hanyu, wanting to help, couldn't intervene at all. He was anxiously pacing, muttering curses under his breath.
"Shui Qingyue, that perverted woman actually has a divine artifact... Brother Li's cultivation is weakened. I'll go help him," Shang Xie Shaoqing snorted disdainfully, drew his sword, and leaped forward.
"Young Master, I'll come too!" Du Wei followed and charged forward.
Then came the Dragon Hound and the Chi Dragon, barking and rushing forward... In an instant, a chaotic battle ensued, with flickering lights and flying energy.
Shui Qingyue screamed in anger, "You're ganging up on me, a woman! Shameless!"
Shang Xie Shaoqing pointed at the wailing infants and said, "Their sonic attacks are giving me a headache. You have more people, you're the shameless ones."
Shui Qingyue's face darkened. How could they compare like this!
She raised her hand, and a golden light flared from her fair wrist, "Then all of you die!"
Boom, boom, boom!
Blinding beams of golden light shot out, and the violent energy and killing intent seemed poised to destroy everything.
The cultivators were already suppressed by the light of the Lotus Glazed Lamp, lying on the ground, devoid of strength. Now, with energy flying and debris scattering, they used all their might to try and dodge, but some were still caught in the crossfire, resulting in several deaths on the spot.
Even Li Tianjue dared not face the full force of this terrifying power. Shang Xie Shaoqing and Du Wei, their cultivation also weakened by the Lotus Glazed Lamp, dodged as well, fleeing somewhat embarrassedly.
Su Luo stood not far away, her brow furrowed.
Shui Qingyue had already reached the second stage of Spirit King cultivation. The Divine Eye Mirror displayed her various secrets, including her proficient techniques and characteristics. Despite her terrible personality, she was indeed a genius of the Tai Chu Sacred Land, not much inferior to Li Tianjue.
Although Su Luo had spotted her weakness, she was still difficult to deal with.
Since that was the case...
Su Luo's lips curved into a smile. She suddenly leaped up and rushed towards Shui Qingyue, "Shui Qingyue!"
Shui Qingyue turned and saw Su Luo, a murderous intent blooming on her lips.
Just as she aimed the Liu Guang Bracelet at Su Luo, preparing to strike a fatal blow, Su Luo suddenly looked at her hand, "Oh no, your Lotus Glazed Lamp!"
Shui Qingyue's heart sank. She instinctively glanced at the divine artifact in her hand.
Unbeknownst to anyone, a dark glint flashed in Su Luo's eyes as she aimed the Feng Shen Jue at the Lotus Glazed Lamp.
Time, life and death, cultivation...
Everything fell under her blockade. Even the strongest power was as if it were directly severed by a massive heavenly blade descending from the sky.
The Lotus Glazed Lamp, which had been emitting a bright glow, suddenly extinguished.
Instantly, Li Tianjue and the others, whose cultivation had been suppressed, recovered. The feeling of being restricted vanished.
Shui Qingyue was greatly astonished, her eyes wide with disbelief.
In that single moment, Su Luo, like a phantom, swept past her. Shui Qingyue felt her hand go empty; the Lotus Glazed Lamp had been snatched away.
"My lamp!" Shui Qingyue cried out in distress.
But before she could pursue, Li Tianjue flicked his wrist. Semi-transparent flowers materialized from the void, cold and chilling, swiftly forming a chain that tightly bound Shui Qingyue from head to toe.
