Chapter 110: The Mistake of Being Talkative

  "I'll take care of her for now." Anyway, that Youkai won't be able to return for a while, so I might as well rely on the Moon Capital? Don't be ridiculous, I'd better just go solo for now... at least until I meet Yuyuko again...... What is this woman trying to do!?

  Will you settle it? This tone of yours has made Meng Yueyi's gaze at Jiuling even more unfriendly, "I will definitely smash your mouth!"

  "I'm so scared!" Shrinking his neck, Jiǔ Mìng pretended to make a fearful expression and turned around to run. He wasn't afraid of being challenged alone, but he was afraid that Mián Yuè Yī Jī, who had been tricked once before, might have some preparations in store, which would be bad for Yōu Yōu Zǐ...

  Helping others is okay, but dragging them down with you is one of the most unbearable things!

  He really didn't know that this time, Meng Yue Yijie came with a fierce momentum, actually didn't prepare anything at all, and simply planned to come over and fight alone for nine lives. Still with a confident attitude, last time was just... careless, doesn't count! This time is the real battle, it's time to regain the scene!

  "Are you thinking of escaping again?" Seeing the extra sealed card in Jiǔ Mìng's hand, Mián Yuè Yī Jī frowned heavily. If Jiǔ Mìng insisted on running away, it was fine as long as her sister was by her side; otherwise, she really had no good way to stop him. "Can your manhood only be reflected in escaping?"

  "Alright, I don't want to be looked down upon by women. This time it won't happen again." Last time's escape was allowed by the situation, knowing that we couldn't win and there was no reason to fight to the death. Why not leave when possible?

  Must we wait until those who act recklessly and stupidly are caught?

  He clenched the sealed card in his hand, and a set of iron claws with a thick metallic luster appeared in his hand, which he then put on his fingers. Ah, this way it's easier to receive the opponent's knife. She didn't seem like a Soul Spirit Witch, after experiencing Meng Yue Yi Ji's strange strength, he had no intention of using that popping knife method again.

  Maybe they relied on their strange power to suppress him and cut off his finger.

  "...and yet, a weapon has appeared? Meng Yue Yi's eyes widened slightly as she nodded faintly. No wonder she couldn't see the huge gun he was carrying - it must have been stored away using this card-summoning ability of his. "Great! This time I'll finally wash away the shame of last time."

  "Cut, and no one sees it, even if someone is cleaned up, who knows?"

  Mian Yue Yi Ji's eyebrows furrowed fiercely, "Very well, you will live a good life, and I will find someone to shut this mouth of yours!"

  "A vicious woman will definitely not be able to get married!"

  "...Jiǔ Mìng clearly saw her expression turn gloomy in an instant, her face could turn black with water, Miǎo Yuè Yī Jī coldly smiled, "Very sorry! There are too many guys who come to me for marriage proposals, it's really annoying!"

  "Oh? So that's how it is, come on! You make the first move." With a mocking smile, Jiuming beckoned to the girl whose mood was fluctuating, and she also moved without hesitation. The distance of several tens of meters between them instantly narrowed to zero. A knife that had not been unsheathed swiftly drew close to Jiuming in a flash and slashed horizontally at him.

  The powerful momentum carried on the blade, as soon as it was unsheathed, the ground around was scarred by the fierce torrent!

  What the fuck!! Starting with such a big momentum and finishing with a must-kill move, is this a mistake?!

  Pupils suddenly constricted, the nine lives instantly ignited their own spirit, stimulating the spirit to an extremely active degree. With both hands clenched into fists, the power that burst out in an instant forcibly suppressed the fierce turbulent flow. The clasped fists crashed onto the gleaming blade.

  Not only the ground, but even the air shook violently, and the iron claws on Jiu Ming's hands shattered into a large number of small fragments under the intense collision. Some flying fragments even produced flames due to friction with the air at high speed.

  She slightly raised an eyebrow, and Meng Yue Yi quickly retreated half a step, swinging the weapon in her hand to block the flying debris, especially those heading for her face.

  "Your strength has weakened." Mutsuki Ikki looked at Kurenai with discontent, "Not using your full power, is it because you look down on me?"

  "Cough, who knew you'd start with such a large formation...". Jiǔ Mìng let out a light cough, full of fighting spirit. "Alright then, I'll go all out in this battle."

  It can be said that it's time to go all out, in that case... The nine-lived mirror taken out by Tsukishiro Kaguya made her shake her head. This kind of mirror doesn't exist on Earth now, does it? Using a mirror during battle? Is this guy some kind of narcissist or something?

  Wait, his eyes are a bit off, and he noticed the bird pattern revealed in Jiǔ Mìng's left eye. Mian Yuè Yī Jī immediately thought of the information her teacher had revealed to them on Earth. Apart from that gun, Jiǔ Mìng also has a "Tóng Shù" (Pupil Technique) that can stimulate the exhaustion of potential power. If it is applied, don't worry, as long as you have a rejecting thought, you can easily dispel it.

  When it comes to her own teacher, Mei Yue Yi's heart is filled with all sorts of lingering thoughts. Was it worth betraying the Lunar Palace and being exiled to Earth for a Moon Princess who had touched the forbidden?

  "Even if it's a woman... I'll hold back when we fight." She put away the mirror in her hand, and the flying bird pattern in Jiumeng's eyes also disappeared. As for weapons, she would still use her bare hands, her knife was made of some unknown material, sturdy and unyielding, the super alloy claw had shattered in their previous exchange but her weapon didn't have a scratch.

  "Don't bother, even if I spare you, you won't be able to do it!"

  "Is that so?" This time, Jiǔ Mìng was the first to move. His voice sounded in front of Miǎo Yuè Yī Jī. After his voice sounded, a loud explosion came from where he had been standing just now, and the ground collapsed because it could not withstand the external force.

  Don't let him get close! As soon as this thought emerged, she flew out backwards, the powerful force making it difficult for her to grasp her own weapon... Her ability was Spirit Possession, allowing her to borrow the power of various spirits to enhance her combat strength. For example, before reflecting Nine Lives, there was the Thunder Dragon, and also making her own strength become incredibly massive, as long as she wanted, he was an all-around fighter.

  Now, the power of the nine explosions has actually surpassed her own enhanced strength after using her abilities. At the same time, she can't borrow multiple divine powers; if she converts, she'll lack a strong foundation, and when encountering an explosive force like Nine Lives, it's better to maintain the current state.

  Jiǔ Mìng never showed any energy-based attacks from the start, and even his lightning dragon was just a tool-assisted attack. It's these physically powerful enemies that are the most troublesome.

  However, she can be certain that the state of nine lives will not last for too long. After her previous defeat, she had done a post-battle summary and the gray gas emanating from Nine Lives was probably equivalent to the blood flowing out when a person is injured. Last time, it was just one hand that was emitting gray gas, but now his entire body, except for the transparent flame pattern, was emitting this gray gas.

  Isn't this guy going to die? He's clearly a ghost and still dares to come, if he continues like this, the consequences will be gone in smoke!

  You said you would hold back, but now it seems like you're holding back even more. The power you're exerting is clearly more violent than before.

  She was knocked flying by Mutsuki Ikaruga, but the Nine didn't pursue her. Instead, she stood in place and swung at the air, creating a whirlpool of airflow that pulled her back in.

  Meng Yue Yijun, who was pulled back by the cyclone, made a light turn, aimed her weapon at Jiuyi and swung it, a wave of flames pressed towards him. Two meters away from Jiuyi, he felt the scorching temperature that had reached its peak, seemingly more intense than what he experienced with that white-haired girl!

  Interrupting the pursuit of Meng Yue Yijun, Jiuxing crossed his arms, and with a swift motion, he tore apart the flames that were pressing in on him. The air was ripped apart as the flames were torn open, and under the immense power, the fire couldn't even touch Jiuxing's body.

  I knew it... Seeing Jiǔ Mìng's violent breakthrough, Mián Yuè Yī Jī's mouth twitched slightly. At this moment, Jiǔ Mìng's power was so overwhelming that she couldn't find anyone who could match her. However, in just this brief moment, she clearly saw that Jiǔ Mìng's body had become much more transparent, as if she could see right through to her thoughts. Jiǔ Mìng's aura retracted, and with a casual flick of her wrist, she tossed a few mid-grade high-energy crystals into her mouth.

  "You've seen it too, right? Just now... you can hold on for 20 seconds and that's a win!"

  “…Twenty seconds? Even ten seconds are difficult, the explosive force of a nine-lived ghost is very strong, and it's not impossible to break through. When encountering that kind of eerie power, he was severely restrained, just like the reflective... unless his strength is strong enough to break through the upper limit of his turtle shell endurance.”

  But this time, she happened to meet the seemingly very restrained Nine Lives, Wind? Thunder? Fire? Any of them would be broken by his violent means just now, and when it came to strength, she was at a disadvantage. With her swordsmanship, the power of the Nine Lives was enough to overwhelm technique.

  If it were her sister here...the battle would have been a completely different outcome.Now,this is her fight.

  "Continue?"

  "Of course!"

  "Well, for a woman, yielding once in a while isn't anything to be ashamed of, is it?" Jiǔ Mìng scratched his head, feeling that he too had the habit of talking excessively.

  "Hmph, I will absolutely not admit defeat!"

  "Alright, respecting your pride, let's continue! The Nine Lives' body shook all over, and a faint gray gas began to emanate from his body once again. "Remember, aside from the time just now, there are still 17 seconds left, of course I may also be able to hold on for even longer."

  "No need to remind me." Mian Yue Yi Ji took the initiative, relying on her strength, she was completely at a disadvantage. What could counter Nine Lives' was technique. Nine Lives' power had increased greatly, but his physical endurance remained unchanged. Although his special physique wouldn't show any injuries, his body's exhaustion proved that he was indeed getting hurt.

  After another brief exchange, Jiǔ Mìng fell silent. The girl in front of him had surprisingly high combat experience. Even when she was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, she managed to narrow the gap between them by using evasive maneuvers, and could at least hold her own against him for a while... Was this his fault for speaking too much?
