Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor Chapter 1217 - 44: Counterattack, Total Victory Over the Pureblood Sky Fox (Part 1)

Observing the biting chill rapidly engulfing Qin Yue’s entire right arm and showing signs of spreading further, Yun Sheng produced several needles in her hand.

Despite her personal feelings towards Qin Yue, they were in this predicament together. Yun Sheng couldn't simply stand by and watch her perish helplessly.

The encroaching icy aura cast a pall over Qin Yue’s countenance, her once vibrant lips now tinged with a deathly blue.

At this rate, she would be encased in ice within mere hours.

Qin Yue attempted to halt Lu Yunshuang.

"There is no solution," Lu Yunshuang stated dismissively, passing by Qin Yue without offering aid.

It wasn't a matter of unwillingness, but a practical limitation. The ice attributed powers of the Ice Fox, combined with general Water Ice Magic, formed a formidable combination that even Lu Yunshuang found insurmountable to counteract.

"Allow me to examine it," Yun Sheng announced, stepping forward as despair began to claim Qin Yue.

"What are you doing?!" Qin Yue cried out.

She watched, astonished, as Yun Sheng materialized needles as if by magic.

Yun Sheng’s pupils constricted, a golden glint flashing within her dark eyes.

Qin Yue’s arm loomed before her, magnified immeasurably.

Through the layers of clothing, skin, muscle, and blood vessels, Yun Sheng discerned multiple icy blue cold auras coursing through Qin Yue’s arm and beginning to infiltrate other parts of her body.

In an instant, Qin Yue felt a sharp, bee-sting-like pain in her arm as the needles Yun Sheng held pierced several critical acupoints.

Remarkably, the moment the needles embedded themselves, the chilling frost on her arm began to dissipate, melting away like snow in spring.

Her skin gradually regained its natural hue, and her hand felt the return of its mobility.

"Ah, I’m alright now! Thank heavens, I truly thought I was finished," Qin Yue exclaimed, feeling the sensation return and her lips regain their color.

Though Yun Sheng’s needles appeared mundane, she had infused them with the potent power of Karma Fire during their application.

The inherent freezing constitution of the Ice Fox Clan was formidable, but the Divine Lotus Karma Fire rendered its effects easily surmountable.

Witnessing Yun Sheng’s swift actions and the subsequent dissolution of the freezing effect elicited a rare flicker of surprise across Lu Yunshuang’s usually stoic expression.

Even the Patriarch of the Jiuluan Clan raised an eyebrow slightly.

Yun Sheng's needlework was executed with such blinding speed that even the discerning Patriarch of the Jiuluan Clan couldn't follow the precise movements.

The onlookers were collectively convinced that Yun Sheng’s superior medical skills were responsible for dispelling the icy affliction.

"The second round has concluded. Do you intend to continue the competition?" Liu Xueyu inquired haughtily.

With one win apiece, a deciding third round was now inevitable.

It was at this juncture that Hua Yanluo and Qin Yue grasped the calculated strategy of the Fengdu Holy Daughter candidates.

They had strategically fielded their weakest contender in the first round, fully intending to secure victory in the subsequent two matches. Lu Yunshuang was their concealed ace, a formidable opponent against whom defeat was almost certain.

"To think a third round is necessary, such an unforeseen miscalculation," Hua Yanluo muttered, clearly vexed.

"I suggest you concede and forfeit the inheritance. That insignificant trash wishes to contend with me? A low-class Half-Beast will forever remain just that – a low-class Half-Beast. A mixed breed can never triumph over a purebred," Liu Xueyu declared, acknowledging Yun Sheng's medical prowess with disdain but still viewing her as a lowly Half-Beast.

It was widely perceived that the veiled woman, who retained her Half-Fox Human Form, was the most vulnerable among Cangdu's trio.

"We concede..." Hua Yanluo began, biting her lip in reluctant agreement.

"What is inherently wrong with mixed blood? I shall demonstrate today that mixed blood can indeed overcome the purebred!" With a subtle lifting of her veil, Yun Sheng’s voice, soft yet clear, resonated through the courtyard.

Her simple declaration struck like a thunderclap, stunning everyone present, including the Patriarch of the Jiuluan Clan observing impassively from above.

Some listeners instinctively cupped their ears, questioning if they had misheard.

Just moments earlier, this very Half-Beast had dared to challenge Liu Xueyu.

The Jiuluan Clan Patriarch turned his gaze towards Yun Sheng, a newfound interest sparked in his eyes.

"What did you just say! Repeat it if you dare!" Liu Xueyu, never before subjected to such blatant disrespect from a Half-Beast, demanded.

"I asked, Hua Yanluo, if the principle of 'rewards proportionate to effort' still holds true?" Yun Sheng deliberately sidestepped Liu Xueyu’s outburst, turning back to address Hua Yanluo with studied casualness.

This deliberate provocation sent Liu Xueyu into a fury. Had it not been for the surrounding spectators, she would have annihilated the Sky Fox Half-Beast on the spot.

"You intend to join the third round? Your adversary is Liu Xueyu," Hua Yanluo experienced a moment of disbelief, questioning if it was not Qin Yue’s right arm but this timid Medical Woman’s mind that had been compromised.

It was evident that this woman was not thinking clearly at the moment.

Not only did she want to compete, but she had also audaciously issued a challenge to Liu Xueyu.

"Of course, it counts. You are still in the mood to ask this at a time like this?" Hua Yanluo stammered.

"As long as it counts. If, by chance, I emerge victorious in the third round, does that signify I will be granted the opportunity to learn the acquired Sky Fox Inheritance?" Yun Sheng inquired further.

"What a jest! How could you possibly defeat her? Should you manage to triumph over her, I would bestow not only the acquired inheritance but even my own inheritance upon you," Hua Yanluo scoffed, speaking recklessly.

Hua Yanluo held absolutely no belief that a Low-class Half-Beast, whose only skill was fleeing, could possibly overcome the purebred Sky Fox, Liu Xueyu.

"Preposterous, Hua Yanluo! This Low-class Half-Beast’s mind is not functioning properly. You are as deluded as she is, as if she could ever be a worthy opponent for me in this lifetime," Liu Xueyu’s expression revealed a subtle trace of fury.

"Three moves," Yun Sheng surged forward. To all observers, she appeared as a mere blur as she reached the platform.

Three moves? The faces of everyone present contorted in astonishment.

"In merely three moves, I shall defeat you," Yun Sheng’s declaration sent the entire courtyard into an uproar.

"Has this woman truly lost her senses, claiming she can defeat Xueyu in three moves?" Particularly on the Fengdu side, Chen Qi whispered to Lu Yunshuang, his mouth agape.

"Not necessarily," the usually taciturn Lu Yunshuang commented, her gaze fixed on Yun Sheng atop the platform, uttering a mere two words.

Liu Xueyu’s eyes widened slightly in indignation, her body quivering with a mixture of shame and rage.

Concealed beneath Liu Xueyu’s sleeves, her meticulously manicured nails elongated eerily by several inches, each one adorned with intricate, exotic patterns.

This infuriating Low-class Half-Beast actually dared to insult her.

No one could humiliate Liu Xueyu and escape unscathed. So, it would be three moves?

Very well, in a single move, Liu Xueyu intended to obliterate this contemptible Half-Beast!
