Several long beams of light suddenly descended, appearing from a distance as if the world was exploding, dazzling and spectacular!
Yet, even so, not a single bolt of lightning struck its target!
In response, Jing Lei immediately changed its combat plan, making a preemptive strike! It struck down at the exact spot where Jin Bao'er was about to land!
"Boom!"
The scorching, numb, and fine stinging sensation made her stop abruptly, veins bulging on her forehead, throbbing! Electricity surged through her entire body in an instant!
Her once sleek and glossy black hair was blown into a series of 'buns' at this moment, looking ridiculous and stupid!
Who was Jin Bao'er?
She had experienced countless lightning tribulations in her life, safely contending with the Great Dao's thunderous bolts. Yet, she had never encountered lightning that could predict her movements…
She was stunned! A fierce competitive spirit ignited within her! Before the next bolt of lightning struck, she suddenly lowered her gaze, her figure vanishing from where she stood…
Jing Lei sensed her intention and made another precise prediction! It unleashed a bolt of lightning at the spot where she was about to reappear!
However, this time it missed…
On the ground, the single white figure suddenly formed a triangular formation, with five identical figures moving forward simultaneously…
The Great Dao's lightning bolts were bewildered!
But they quickly launched an attack, targeting the figures on the ground! Finally, five bolts of lightning struck simultaneously, determined to smite this ant that dared to provoke the Great Dao!
Yet, this was utterly useless!
The lightning bolts passed directly through the five figures, failing to strike any living being…
It was only now that they realized, all five figures were illusions!
Where was Jin Bao'er?
The air suddenly fell into a stalemate, streaks of lightning crisscrossing the sky, as if searching for something…
Jin Bao'er leaned against a large black rock, her expression solemn and calm!
This was merely the fringe area of the lightning. The true center was still some distance away. To prove her suspicions, she had to reach the central area as quickly as possible…
But what was going on with this lightning? Did it have a consciousness?
As she pondered a solution, Gu Luo Xian, the unlucky one, arrived…
The beautiful woman, panting, her face pale, called out breathlessly for them to wait, constantly moving forward. Soon, she entered the lightning zone…
In response, Jin Bao'er opened her mouth, about to say something, but it was too late! The lightning discovered the intruder and struck down fiercely, instantly turning the beautiful woman into an ugly, dark duckling!
And the lightning in the sky finally stopped fixating solely on Jin Bao'er…
Jin Bao'er remained silent, thinking: Teammates are sometimes meant to be sacrificed!
Of course, with Gu Luo Xian's defense-oriented reinforcement talent, being struck a few times was not a problem!
With this thought, she hesitated no longer, immediately rushing out and running towards the central area, not daring to use any spiritual power to advance, lest she attract the lightning’s attention…
With someone else drawing fire, she indeed managed to safely break through the lightning boundary!
Her divine sense instinctively swept out, and her attention was immediately drawn to the man with a faint aura, head bowed and unresponsive…
Ruthless electrical sparks and lightning continuously flashed across his body, causing his muscles to twitch. Yet, the man remained completely unresponsive, not even making a move to resist.
Jin Bao'er's heart skipped a beat! A multitude of complex emotions surged within her!
Even though the man's upper body was bare, exuding sexiness and allure, his lower body was ragged, and his limbs were bound by dark red chains. One particularly strange chain was wrapped around his waist… His body was covered in wounds from electrical shocks, yet they couldn't conceal his indifferent and powerful demeanor!
She could hardly believe this was the man from her memory, the arrogant, unrestrained, and ice-cold powerhouse…
Her intense gaze drew the man's attention. He suddenly looked up, his icy purple eyes locking onto the white-clad woman on the distant hill!
Because his hair had been blasted into curls, his clothes were disheveled and blackened, and his face was somewhat obscured, he didn't recognize her at first. But those strikingly bright, cold eyes were looking at him with such complexity…
For some inexplicable reason, Long Li Xing felt a pang of nervousness…
He didn't want her to see him like this! Proud as he was, this was precisely the state he least wanted that person to witness, even if this might be an illusion!
At this moment, the physical pain seemed to trigger a throbbing in his heart. He furrowed his brow, looking indifferently at the approaching figure, saying nothing!
Was that ugly thing, Blue Lotus, trying to torment him again with this method? Heh… after hundreds of repeated trickery, would he fall for it again?
However, this time, in the illusion, Jin Bao'er looked so disheveled…
"Tch… She loves cleanliness the most, how could she let herself get into such a wretched state! Get lost! Don't sicken me!"
A hoarse and chilling voice rang out, devoid of any tenderness, filled with impatient anger and indifference!
Yet… it was unexpectedly heartbreaking!
Jin Bao'er also remembered that she had just been blasted into a mess. She must look particularly disheveled now. But she had forgotten to tidy herself up, and she didn't want him to see her in this state…
So, the woman turned and left! Her figure quickly vanished from where she stood…
The man watched the person suddenly leave, and a sudden discomfort welled up in his heart, a faint feeling surfacing. He forcefully suppressed it, finding it strange why she wasn't continuing the act this time!
Jin Bao'er quickly tidied herself up. Her white clothes were ruined, so she changed into another outfit. Coincidentally, she had obtained the five-colored mermaid silk dress she bought in the Upper Realm. Thinking about it, she put on this most beautiful dress…
A woman adorns herself for the one she pleases, and she was no exception!
When the gracefully stunning figure reappeared, Long Li Xing impatiently looked up, about to retort sarcastically, but then he beheld this breathtaking scene….
Even with the dark, gloomy stones behind her, it couldn't overshadow her devastating beauty!
The colorful mermaid silk, radiating a faint white spiritual light, was incredibly light, fluttering as if by itself without any wind! The simple white bandeau adorned her exquisitely curved figure, full-figured with a fair and beautiful face. A pair of long, straight legs were half-exposed, their skin like congealed cream! A perfect combination of aloofness and seduction…
She was so ethereally beautiful it was almost dreamlike, captivating!
Jin Bao'er also knew this outfit would look good. Hearing Long Li Xing's earlier remark about her "ugly state," she actually felt quite embarrassed!
Seeing him in such a state now, she felt a little bit of uncontainable joy in her heart.
"Does this… not look ugly anymore?"
As she spoke, her cheeks were slightly flushed, and the corners of her lips curved into a smile…
Long Li Xing wanted to say she still looked ugly, but the words caught in his throat, impossible to utter. However, he was certain this person was not his Bao'er!!
Because his Bao'er was vain and aloof, straightforward and dull-witted, how could she possibly wear something so revealing!
"Hmph!"
All his sarcastic words turned into this single snort! He lowered his gaze, refusing to look again!
Jin Bao'er was stunned by his action, somewhat bewildered…
