Chapter 1904: Falling Blossoms Unmatched Palm

Blue Ling'er was a clever girl, always full of ideas. She had previously wanted to team up with Nangong to make an impression and prove her strength to Xu Yang, demonstrating that she was no pampered hothouse flower.

However, when she saw that their opponent this time was Xuan Guang, one of the Seven Elders, the girl decisively halted. She wasn't so foolish as to act recklessly in front of Xuan Guang. She knew his strength all too well, especially now that he was in a berserk state with his soul controlled. Rushing forward would undoubtedly be suicidal.

Therefore, Blue Ling'er decisively abandoned her plan to rush forward. However, seeing that Nangong, with Xu Yang's help, had managed to break through Xuan Guang's vital point—something Nangong had never achieved before—Blue Ling'er suddenly felt emboldened. She also wanted to seize this opportunity to demonstrate her own capabilities.

But the girl didn't anticipate that this rash move would almost cost her her life. She transformed into a streak of faint light, instantly swooping upwards. Already possessing a light movement technique, her speed reached its peak at that moment. Although she was only at the peak of the Mahayana realm, her superior speed almost rivaled that of true Martial God-level experts.

In the blink of an eye, she was in front of Xuan Guang, whose vital point had shattered. With a backhand palm, she poured all the rich martial essence from her body into her palm and unleashed her proudest "Falling Blossom Peerless Palm!" This was currently Blue Ling'er's most powerful single-target palm technique.

With a muffled thud, the girl's palm strike landed forcefully on Xuan Guang's chest, precisely where his vital point had just shattered. It's important to note that although Xuan Guang was a true Martial God-level expert, his vital point had just been shattered. His soul realm was in a state of surprised vulnerability, and he had no immediate follow-up defensive measures in place. Still reeling from the shock of how his vital point was broken, he hadn't had time to establish a more robust protective system.

In such a vulnerable state, with his physical body almost completely exposed, Blue Ling'er's full-force palm strike truly caused Xuan Guang's meridians to tremble, and he immediately spurted a mouthful of blood.

"Haha, I'm sorry, Uncle Xuan Guang. You are not yourself right now, and I must use this method to help you regain consciousness."

Blue Ling'er still wore a bright, cheerful smile, believing Xuan Guang could hear her words. Little did she know, Xuan Guang's current state was entirely different from what she imagined. Already in a controlled, near-berserk soul state, Xuan Guang instantly erupted with all the accumulated anger within his soul world upon encountering this powerful external attack.

"Oh no! Danger! Come back quickly!"

Even Xu Yang's usually unruffled composure was disturbed at this moment. He quickly let out a roar, but it was ultimately a little too late.

Xuan Guang suddenly raised his head, and the ferocious, blood-red light burning in his eyes utterly terrified Blue Ling'er. This was entirely unlike the expression of the Xuan Guang she knew so well—the calm, even taciturn man he usually was. It was the terrifying form of a demonic monk, practicing Buddhist techniques yet burning with an unparalleled murderous aura.

Blue Ling'er finally grasped the seriousness of the situation, her cherry-like mouth slightly agape in surprise. She was just about to pull her hand away from him, but she found that a powerful adhesive force had already bound her body to Xuan Guang, leaving her with no strength to pull herself back.

At this moment, all the martial essence Xuan Guang released from his body transformed into an extremely potent devouring force. He intended to cripple Blue Ling'er on the spot, to avenge the injury he had just sustained.

"You damned little girl, die!"

The enraged Xuan Guang had already lost his last shred of sanity. He couldn't even distinguish who the little girl in front of him was; he only remembered that this person had just struck his chest with a palm. Revenge and slaughter became the only thoughts filling his mind.

"Ah!!"

A furious roar erupted from Xuan Guang's mouth. Simultaneously, an incredibly powerful golden aura erupted from his body, instantly shattering all rocks and ground within dozens of meters around him. That dark golden, murderous profound light seemed to become a life-reaping halo, instantly shattering any surrounding forces that intended to attack him.

Blue Ling'er almost despairingly closed her eyes. She knew full well that the moment this aura erupted, her body would likely be torn to pieces.

But moments later, the girl suddenly felt a spring-like warmth enveloping her. When she tremblingly opened her eyes, she found her body had, at some point, landed in Xu Yang's embrace.

"Brother..."

Blue Ling'er immediately became as docile as a kitten. Her blushing cheeks rested in Xu Yang's warm embrace, and she instantly felt as if he were her heaven. The warmth of his embrace even made her forget the life-and-death moment she had just experienced.

However, Xu Yang did not share Blue Ling'er's current relaxed and gentle demeanor. Instead, he lowered his head with an angry expression, gazing at the face in his arms that he couldn't bring himself to hate.

"You're quite bold, aren't you? Do you know how dangerous that was? That guy has completely gone berserk; he's no longer your Uncle Xuan Guang. Before I dispel the evil thoughts in his soul world, he is a true demon. If I hadn't been there, that power could have easily torn your body in half."

Xu Yang was absolutely not exaggerating. That was a world-destroying vortex of power unleashed by a rampaging Martial God. Blue Ling'er was unaware that the moment the power went berserk, Xu Yang had actually torn through the void, instantly appearing behind her from the other side of the battlefield. He then used the incredibly powerful Law of Light as a shield, allowing her to escape the terrifying vortex of power completely unharmed.

If Xu Yang's strength had been even slightly weaker, the girl would not have escaped that power completely unharmed. Blue Ling'er felt a deep sense of lingering fear and could only pout her lips, feigning pitifulness to Xu Yang.

"Alright, alright, don't scold me. Wasn't I just trying to show off in front of you? Who knew Uncle Xuan Guang would suddenly become so terrifying?"

Xu Yang helplessly shook his head, knowing he couldn't win an argument with her, and simply sent her back to Nangong's side.
