《I indeed don't know how to cultivate》chapter 4 The Painting
Advertisement
Wang Yan tried to withdraw the sword by exerting her Qi of her entire body, only to find that the sword flow was out of her control.
The skull, whose mouth seemed to be bottomless, gulped down the sword flow dense like the rainforest in a short time.
The succuba outstretched her hand haughtily, "If you give me the purple sapphire now, I'll consider sparing your life."
She'd instead let her go than kill her. Her master was a big shot with significant influence. Even if she won the fight against her and occupied and took control of the Purple Mountain, she should live the rest of her life with the fear of her master coming back to avenge her.
Wan Yan's face was clouded with worries and sorrow.
Odds were not with her in the fight against succuba even with her purple sword. With making it worse, the skull had robbed the sword from her.
The succuba ridiculed her saying, "You have no choice... nor do your fellow apprentices! Clock is ticking. There is not much time left for you to make the decision."
Staring at the demons standing by the woman for a moment, Wang Yan gritted her teeth and moved her hands slightly, trying to regain control of the purple sword.
The succuba's brows furrowed deeply as she saw Wang Yan's struggles.
"Pathetic trying. You really think you could win?"
The only one she was afraid of was Wang Yan's master. The importance of Purple Mountain was beyond all doubts and drove her to make the decision.
Then...
In a blink of an eye, the succuba jumped behind Wang Yan.
A palm with skin as delicate as crystal-clear jade patted on the girl's neck.
Wang Yan found herself barely able to breathe. Her mind told her to fight back. But succuba moved so fast that she had dealt several attacks on her sensitive female parts and looked sideways with grace at the struggling girl within seconds.

"Game over. According to the oral promises and rules, Purple Mountain is now mine."
Her words stimulated Wang Yan's nerves like needles punctuating her skin.
"Absolutely ... not!"
A slow, cruel smile crept across the succuba's face as she looked down at the stubborn girl.
"Take a wild guess ... how long could your fellow apprentices hold on to?" The succuba's words were like a nightmare that freaked her out.
"Give me the purple sapphire, I'll abide by the agreement and let you leave safely."
By this time, a voice through sonic wave transmission from a man with a crippled arm a few miles away sounded in Wan Yan's ear, "Sis, come on, power the purple sapphire! Only by that... could you hurt her."
Wang Yan did not fail the expectation of Long Yi. She grabbed the succuba's slender wrist with one hand and took out the purple sapphire from the box.
The succuba's charming face showed a trace of panic but then twisted in anger.
"Chiii."
With a harsh sound of a sharp blade piercing into the iron, all the powers that burst out of purple sapphire poured into the succuba's body under the control of Wang Yan.
Wang Yan loosened her grip. The impact was so strong that she almost lost her consciousness.
The succuba was sent flying upside down and crashed into Purple Mountain, stirring up a large cloud of dust.
Short of breath, Wang Yan could no longer control her body and fell onto the ground.
The gem consumed all the Qi in her body as she powered it just now.
Despite being seriously injured, Long Yi could still roughly perceive the situation back at the battlefield in Purple Mountain via his Qi.
"Did it ... work?"
It was also the matter that all disciples in Purple Mountain were concerned about. The disaster of Purple Mountain would end up today if it were a lethal whack.

Long Yi's face turned dark suddenly.
He sent his voice to Wan Yan through sonic wave transmission once again, "Sis, you mustn't give her any opportunity to strike back! She could recover in such a short time."
However, at this time, Wang Yan had not even the strength left to support herself standing.
Queer cries came out from the demons as they saw the fighting will of the disciples come back again.
But the succuba's fast recovery sent the whole battleground into silence. There were a few scratches on her body and even on her delicate face, which irritated her so much.
Her Qi reached its peak at a wave of her hand.
"Stubborn bastards, die!"
She was so irritated by the impulsive and rude deeds of the young girl who just scratched her pretty face that her lust for blood was ignited all at once.
Staring at the approaching opponent, Wang Yan was very aware of the danger before her.
Just as she was ready to fight to the death, the thing in her arms reminded her of something.
"Wait ... I still got a trump card."
The senior had gifted her a mysterious landscape painting before.
But the attack of succuba was so fierce that Wang Yan did not have time to open and check on the picture scroll yet. She could only reckon on this landscape painting now.
After a moment, her eyes widened.
The picture scroll opened and spread. The succuba collapsed onto the ground accordingly.
"This… what's this? "
The succuba's eyes sparkled with incredible light!
Her gaze fixed on the picture painting Wang Yan took out. The plain landscape lines with an unspeakable charm were vivid.
Suddenly, the remained Qi in the painting burst out and pressed on the succuba that she was stuck onto the ground and couldn't even make a single move.
The succuba knew that she was definitely not a match for that painting.
"Impossible! Even the Devil Picture of Celestial World couldn't have such incredible power!"
The succuba's face darkened.
It could not be a coincidence for the sudden appearance of this painting.
Even she herself had never heard of such a powerful treasure. How came it would end up in the hands of such a naive little girl?
"Where did you get it?"
Wang Yan had a whole talk planned for this.
She sighed secretly, "Forgive me, senior, I may have to mention you and your name."
Making a quick adjustment of her expressions and emotions, Wang Yan smirked, "A moody senior gave me it. He has a great friendship with my master, and is to help take care of the disasters of Purple Sect."
The succuba scoffed at what she said, "Senior? Haha..."
Just when she tried to stand up to break the strong suppression, a man's whisper from the picture painting rang in her ears.
"Greener and steeper hills stand beyond the mountains. Taller and grander buildings sat outside the palaces..."
Those plain words sounded plain, yet she felt an even stronger Qi punch her on her chest, making her tremble.
"Wait! Mountains? Buildings?... won't they be Purple Mountain and the Purple Sect Palace?"
The succuba felt a burst of power Qi rampaging inside her and saw a faceless man in his vision waving a large brush with an extensive and blurred smile.
And standing by his side was Wang Yan in a complete surprise.
The succuba gasped in astonishment.
"Such an excellent work is actually finisher with such great ease under the observation of outsiders? Indeed, the great sects in the world like Purple Sect deserve this enigmatic force!"
