After a while, the disheveled and panting Huyan Yazhi hurriedly waved her hand.
“Stop, stop. I’ve exhausted my spiritual energy and physical strength. If we keep fighting, I’ll just be a punching bag, and it won’t help your growth at all.”
Lin Huanhuan finally dispersed the Wind Blade in her hand and stopped.
“Alright, let’s rest for a while then.”
Although her clothes were also damaged in many places, she hadn’t reached her limit and could continue fighting for a while longer.
Thinking about getting beaten again, Huyan Yazhi was unwilling and quickly made an excuse.
“Lady Lin Huanhuan, there’s no need to continue. I can’t beat you, so I can’t put much pressure on you. It’s not very helpful for your development of new spells.”
Huyan Yazhi’s eyes darted, and she said,
“I think that Dong Yuner would be quite suitable. She’s much stronger than me and can definitely satisfy you. Besides, she’s your personal maidservant and won’t think of resisting you. You can do whatever you want with her.”
“No matter how you look at it, choosing her as a sparring partner is all benefits and no harm.”
“No, I think you’re fine.”
Lin Huanhuan refused without hesitation.
To be honest, what she needed wasn’t an evenly matched opponent, but a punching bag that could move, run, and resist.
She couldn’t bear to have Dong Yuner do it.
Huyan Yazhi was quite suitable, and most importantly, she could also vent her frustration.
But she couldn’t say that, or Huyan Yazhi would definitely refuse.
Lin Huanhuan thought for a moment and then spun a story.
“Actually, I’m doing this for your own good.”
“Aren’t you into formations? Think about it. If you’re not good at close combat, what if someone breaks your formation and gets close to you? You can’t just surrender, can you?”
“But if your close combat skills are also strong, and someone goes all out to break your formation and get close, only to find that your close combat is even stronger than your formation, what kind of mood would they be in?”
“They’d probably break down completely.”
“Think about it carefully. Isn’t that right?”
Hearing this, Huyan Yazhi suddenly felt enlightened and realized.
“Oh, I see!”
“So that’s why every time someone breaks my formation, I have almost no ability to fight back. The problem is right here.”
“Thank you so much, Lady Lin Huanhuan. Let’s continue later then.”
“I must train my combat skills to be very strong too. That way, it will also indirectly enhance my formation path cultivation.”
Huyan Yazhi looked at Lin Huanhuan with admiration and cheered herself on.
After they rested enough, they began sparring again.
During this time, Lin Huanhuan used all kinds of spells, both those she knew and those she didn’t, leaving Huyan Yazhi a bit confused.
But Huyan Yazhi soon understood with her sharp mind.
It must be that Lin Huanhuan was developing new spells while also helping her gain more practical combat experience.
After all, no one knew what kind of techniques an enemy might have, so combat experience was definitely better in abundance.
For a moment, Huyan Yazhi felt even more grateful to Lin Huanhuan, and even thought to herself,
‘After I surpass Lin Huanhuan in the future, I’ll appropriately humiliate her a little less, as repayment for her kindness.’
Lin Huanhuan originally wanted to create a spell that no one had ever seen before, with an attack method completely different from other Wind Path techniques.
That way, the enemy would be completely clueless and wouldn’t know how to defend.
Although, after a long time, many people would have seen this kind of spell, and someone would surely figure out how to counter it.
But she would also update it; it wouldn’t stay the same forever.
However, when she actually got to practice, she realized how unrealistic this idea was.
First of all, her source of ideas was the Wind Path spells she already knew.
It was completely impossible to be entirely different from the Wind Path spells she knew.
Even if she did the complete opposite, there would still be traces to follow.
So Lin Huanhuan quickly adjusted her thinking and set her goal to combine the attack methods of several Wind Path spells together.
With this adjustment, Lin Huanhuan’s train of thought suddenly broadened.
Although it was still a difficult journey, it was completely different from the previous feeling of being unable to take a step.
Moreover, she could use the inner demon to assist.
When encountering a difficult problem, she would let the inner demon come out, and then it would be easily solved.
During the time she was developing new spells with Huyan Yazhi, Dong Yuner often brought them delicious food during breaks and said with some anticipation,
“Miss, Miss Huyan doesn’t know you very well, so she might not be the most suitable target. I might be more suitable. How about letting me replace her?”
“Or maybe we can take turns accompanying you? Would that be better?”
Lin Huanhuan hadn’t deliberately hidden the news that she was developing new spells from Dong Yuner.
After all, it was such a big commotion that it couldn’t be concealed, and it wasn’t anything bad, so why hide?
At first, Lin Huanhuan refused.
“Yuner, no need. Huyan Yazhi alone is enough for me.”
“You should have your own things to do. Go do them. It’s not that I dislike you, but I really don’t need so many people.”
But after a while, as Huyan Yazhi was beaten more often, Lin Huanhuan’s motivational talk naturally stopped working.
Huyan Yazhi gradually began to slack off and stopped using full effort.
Lin Huanhuan had no choice but to call Dong Yuner back to train with her.
With two people, although the pressure was a bit high at first, as she practiced, Lin Huanhuan adapted.
During this time, Lin Huanhuan also took the time to read the letter Ye Jinxi had sent her.
“Huanhuan, do you miss me? I miss you so much.”
“You must not know where I am right now, right? I’m currently a guest at the Returning Moon Sect.”
“The sect leader here is also at the Golden Core level, but they are very polite to me and my Shizun. It should be because of their fear of the Lingyun Sect. Anyway, I’m quite happy.”
“They also invited me to visit the Sun-Moon Lake. Legend has it that it was formed by the sect’s founding patriarch slaying a dragon and a phoenix, possessing an indescribable mystery.”
“I also got a chance to soak in it. I felt like my Dark Spring Spirit Vein was emitting joyful energy. It was really comfortable.”
“It’s a pity you’re not here, otherwise it would definitely be fun to play together.”
“I’ll probably be back in three or four months. Remember to miss me.”
“Also, let me remind you, that personal maidservant of yours has ulterior motives. You need to be careful not to let her succeed.”
“That’s all for now. I’ll write to you next time. Goodbye, remember to reply.”
Lin Huanhuan pursed her lips, feeling that Ye Jinxi was really annoying.
But out of politeness, she still replied to Ye Jinxi.
And so, during the process of terrifying sparring and combat, one month passed quietly.
