CHAPTER 188
The Mischief-Maker
============================================================
As before, even the surging tide of armored soldiers could not scratch the Chaos Bell!
Li Shiyu led her group forward toward the final city gate.
"So when are you going to take on a disciple, Sister Jue? Shiyu's pocket money is running low!"
Dongfang Jue laughed heartily—so she'd been waiting for her junior sister's support all along!
"Haha, I'll have someone bring you some spending money when we get back. Consider it compensation for all the errands Shiyuo ran along the way!"
"Wow! Sister Jue'er is the second-best person in the world!"
"Huh? Why second best?"
"Senior Sister is the kindest person in the world! Shiyu wouldn't dare speak ill of you—your anger is terrifying!"
Dongfang Jue was genuinely curious!
"Isn't Qinghan pretty good to you?"
"He is kind, but Senior Sister gets angry easily and has so many rules!"
Li Shiyu seemed to have found someone to confide in, and her chatter flowed freely. Her little expressions were like those of the village gossip, missing only a red vest and thick cotton pants.
"Oh? What rules? Tell me a couple, Shiyu?"
"Like, Senior Sister never lets me touch Master's discarded clothes, I can't pick food from her bowl during meals, I'm forbidden from drinking the spiritual liquid in the Spirit Pool Hall, and I can't casually use four-character idioms…"
Dongfang Jue couldn't stop laughing either. At this moment, she didn't feel sorry for Li Shiyu at all—she just realized being the senior sister wasn't all that easy!
As it turned out, behind every bizarre rule lay a story so absurd it defied belief!
Dongfang Jue had assumed that Ye Qinghan would bully others by virtue of her status as the First Disciple, expecting her to only show sisterly affection in private.
Now she found herself sympathizing with Ye Qinghan—a junior sister like this truly put her in a tough spot!
As the two chatted, they encountered the final boss!
Luo An circled around and finally reached the last city gate. Behind him lay Yong'an City—he had nowhere left to retreat!
"Your Highness has indeed invited a master. Might I inquire about the maiden's name?"
The group came to a halt. Li Shiyao glanced at General Luo An blocking their path, then leaned close to Dongfang Jue's ear, her voice tinged with confusion.
"Jue'er, who is he talking to? Who is this fairy?"
Dongfang Jue chuckled softly. This was likely the only weakness of Su City's second disciple.
"She called Shiyu a fairy and asked for her name."
Li Shiyu nodded, understanding now!
She lifted her head, arms crossed, radiating an air of arrogant defiance as she declared:
"Lingxian Hall! Thieving, dog-stealing Immortal Venerable! Li Shiyu!"
Luo An had grown accustomed to it—perhaps immortals were all like this… unconventional?
Lingxian Hall had been making waves in the Southern Realm lately. Rumor had it their First Disciple was causing quite a stir on Ling Mountain, but no one had heard of a… chicken-stealing, dog-snatching Immortal Sovereign?
It must be said, the name Li Shiyuo chose this time bore a striking resemblance to those two Immortal Lords—clearly not a good sign!
While those two Immortal Lords were driven by curiosity and preferred low-key approaches, Li Shiyao's choice was purely a reflection of her educational background~
"Why would an Immortal Lord aid the tyrant and support this Eastern brat?"
Luo An couldn't comprehend it. Normally, the Immortal sects rarely meddled in mortal affairs. Cultivation itself was deeply concerned with avoiding bloodshed and karmic retribution—one naturally avoided staining oneself if possible.
Everything must be done with reason and compassion. Otherwise, if one's heart is corrupted by inner demons, the cost would far outweigh any gain.
"Sister Jue'er, what's a pork knuckle?"
"Uh, he's asking why you're helping me."
Li Shiyu nodded, finding their speech baffling—always using four-character phrases she'd never heard before!
They were so pretentious, but Li Shiyu remained her usual self—dazed yet handsome~
Signaling Dongfang Jue to step back, Li Shiyu faced the enemy alone.
"Are you out of your mind? Sister Jue'er is my good friend—she even treated Shiyu to grilled fish!"
Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly. Though he sensed something unusual about this Li Shiyu, by all accounts, she was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation level!
"So there's no room for negotiation?"
Frankly, Dongfang Jue was merely a bystander. She understood her place well enough—as long as she didn’t complicate Shiyao’s affairs.
She understood clearly that although Li Shiyu seemed a bit slow, this second direct disciple of Lingxian Hall wasn't just a figurehead. Her strength was undeniable.
Now watch as Luo An drew two axes—one in each hand—like a war god returning to China. His heroic bearing was not to be underestimated!
"Um, hold on a moment!"
Of course, avoiding a confrontation with this Immortal Sovereign would be ideal!
"What is it?"
Li Shiyao replied with a calm and composed tone, "I came to open the door, not to fight. Besides, you're no match for me. I don't want to hurt you."
Dongfang Jue froze. Are you really from Lingxian Hall?
Does Lingxian Hall even have saints like this?
"In that case, what does the Immortal Sovereign intend?"
Li Shiyu hadn't forgotten why she was here—to open the gate!
What had her master said? There are no empty words in the military. If she returned like this, wouldn't Shiyu lose face?
"Don't be angry. Shiyu is here to open the gate. Move aside. Shiyu will open the gate and complete her mission!"
"Don't even think about it! Go ahead and make your move, Immortal!"
In the blink of an eye, Luo An swung his massive axe and charged forward…
It must be said, Shiyu was starting to learn some mischief~
Li Shiyu hid her small hands behind her back, suddenly transforming them into sword fingers, then spreading her palms open and closing them…
Dongfang Jue noticed this too. Not only did Li Shiyu show no intention of countering, but what did this gesture mean?
"Heh heh… Watch out!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a loud "Ouch!" echoed through the air~
Luo An hadn't gotten far before he took a faceplant…
By the time he scrambled to his feet, he realized his pants had fallen down…
That's what tripped him!
"Pretty pale, huh?" Li Shiyao feigned indifference, but couldn't resist a cutting remark—a true killer of hearts.
Honestly, Luo An still hadn't figured out what the hell had just happened…
This damn armor! How could it just fall off like that?
He hurriedly pulled up the skirt armor to cover his snow-white thighs.
Dongfang Jue leaned over to Li Shiyu and joined in the laughter: "It really is white! Haha! Shiyu, you're amazing!"
What kind of mental fortitude did Li Shiyu possess?
"Shiyu doesn't know~"
At this moment, she should just play dumb, right?
But Li Shiyu stood rooted to the spot. She tilted her head at a forty-five-degree angle toward the sky, hands tucked behind her back. Her tiny feet traced circles on the ground. She tried to whistle, but only managed puffing sounds from her pursed lips—she couldn’t do it…
It was as if… she hadn't secretly suppressed the space, snuck over, and pulled down someone's pants…
Honestly, using such force for this was like using a cannon to swat a mosquito.
But Second Grandma's execution made it all seem perfectly reasonable!
Second Grandma, you see~
Minimal physical harm, maximum psychological damage!
Luo An still couldn't fathom how Li Shiyao pulled it off!
How could she stand there motionless while he pulled down her pants?
What kind of supernatural skill is that? Unheard of!
What decent person spends years cultivating just to go around pulling pants down in public?!
"Immortal Lord, you…"
Before he could finish, a thunderous crash erupted! Li Shiyu vanished before Luo An's eyes, followed by an explosion-like roar behind him!
In an instant, the city gate vanished!
Gone!
Vanished!
Without a trace!
Li Shiyao remained calm and composed, even managing to free her hand to pull down Luo An's pants…
Dongfang Jue was delighted. This Li Shiyao—she's quite the troublemaker too~
