To be honest, Yao Yuan really couldn't bear to do anything to an adorable little girl like Ling Miao in the beginning. That was why he was prepared to directly take the formula and leave.

However, what happened afterwards made Yao Yuan feel like smacking his face.

Ling Miao looked at Yao Yuan curiously and said, "I really want to know how strong you are."

He didn't know why Ling Miao would ask that, but Yao Yuan didn't know what to say either.

"I'm not sure either, but he's pretty strong, right?"

Regardless of whether it was the battle between him and Da Hu at the Nanling competition in the Cyan River previously, or even the battle between him and Da Hu at the Donghua alley just now, it gave Yao Yuan a lot of confidence.

"In any case, we haven't lost much of the battle until now."

Yao Yuan said proudly.

Ling Miao said in shock: "Really? Seems like you are very strong. It just so happens that after finishing your meal, you're interested in competing with me? The kind that doesn't go far. "

Hearing Ling Miao's request, Yao Yuan thought he had heard wrongly, laughed and said to Ling Miao: "You aren't joking right? This isn't a good time to joke around."

Ling Miao shook her head and said: "It's not like that, it's just that I think it's still very interesting to compete with you, and we can also see how much of a gap there is between us."

Since Ling Miao had said it herself, Yao Yuan would naturally not reject, she nodded and said: "Sure, this is the first time I am competing with a Cultivator."

Other than him, it seemed like everyone else had used their own martial arts. They had never seen any kind of cultivation method related to the elements.

"Come on, you can try."

Ling Miao smiled slightly.

When the two of them arrived at the back courtyard, the top of the Ten Li Mountain looked really good. Even though it was already night time, standing on top of the mountain and looking down at the scenery, they could still see everything.

For some reason, looking at the calm and composed Ling Miao, Yao Yuan suddenly felt that this matter was perhaps not as simple as he had imagined.

"I'm afraid this woman is not simple."

Ling Miao stood at her original position, not taking a single weapon. She was just standing there in a strange posture.

"What kind of move is this, do you want the higher-ups to scare me first?"

Yao Yuan laughed loudly.

Ling Miao did not have any reaction, she moved both of her hands, and then instantly formed a hand seal, and the image of the Eight Trigrams Formation appeared.

At first, Yao Yuan thought that it was just Ling Miao's tricks, but a second later, he knew that it was not a fake. Maybe this seemingly illusory and ethereal Eight Trigrams Formation really had its own power.

Ling Miao was still wearing the same calm expression from the beginning, she couldn't see any changes in his expression. She knew that the situation wasn't good, so she hurriedly hid to the other side and watched Ling Miao's movements without blinking.

At the start of the competition, he had said that Yao Yuan would not take advantage of the situation, so he let Ling Miao make the first move.

However, Ling Miao was not willing to choose to do this because she was a girl. Yao Yuan could only play it safe and wait for Ling Miao to make a move.

Yao Yuan also had his own thoughts, he just wanted to see what's attacks contained. Even though he could already be considered a Cultivator, he was still completely clueless about some of the basic knowledge of the Cultivator.

Ling Miao did not hold back, after agreeing to the competition, she started to get serious.

The Eight Trigrams Formation's color became brighter and brighter, there were even many patterns on it, and under Yao Yuan's attentive gaze, it started to become bigger and bigger.

Ling Miao's spirit energy was blue. If the red flame referred to fire and the green healing light to wood, then this meant that … Water?

Fire and water were born to counter each other. Yao Yuan knew that facing the incoming Eight Trigrams Formation, he naturally could not simply use the flames in his palms to resist.

Yao Yuan didn't know what he should do, but he knew how to imitate it. According to what Ling Miao had done just now, Yao Yuan would do the same thing and form a hand seal.

However, the green light that should have appeared did not appear. Instead, the exact same action had brought forth the eight trigram formation in red.

When Yao Yuan saw it, he knew that it was over.

When the red and blue colors collided, the result was as expected. Yao Yuan's red spirit energy had already dissipated like smoke in thin air.

With a "boom", Yao Yuan fell to the ground.

"No, this is not a suppression due to attributes!"

Yao Yuan could feel that, if it was only the suppression on one's attributes, the current Yao Yuan would definitely not feel any more pressure, and the current situation made Yao Yuan have no choice but to doubt his own strength.

"Alright, that's enough. Get up."

The battered Yao Yuan looked at the still calm Ling Miao, and shook his head: "In the end, your skills are still inferior."

Ling Miao smiled slightly: "It's actually nothing. From a cultivation perspective, I'm your senior, and have been in contact with these since I was young. You're just someone who has just learned about cultivation, so the disparity is naturally very obvious."

Yao Yuan sighed, and looked at Ling Miao suspiciously: "Aren't you the only one here?"

Ling Miao shook her head: "Don't look lonely. Actually, it was quite lively here a few years ago. Great Master Lu, who had cooked, I, Senior Sister, and Master have all enjoyed ourselves."

Yao Yuan was startled, he looked at Ling Miao and asked: "What about the rest?"

"Everyone has left. Even Master only comes back from time to time to return the items back here. After that, he will continue to travel in all directions."

For some reason, as Yao Yuan looked at the girl in front of him, he couldn't help but feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Alright, don't think too much about it. You can stay here for the night. Take the formula back tomorrow morning."

At the mention of this, Yao Yuan's face immediately turned red.

Initially, he thought he was the one who had let Ling Miao go, but he did not expect that it was Ling Miao who had let him go.

After returning from the mountain, Yao Yuan looked at Ling Miao who was walking beside him and could not help but ask curiously, "What was that move just now? Why does it seem so powerful?"

"What are you curious about? Don't you know how to do it as well?"

"I'm just trying to show off, but I don't know anything at all. Just tell me."

"It's getting late. Look at the time. It's already past 9, let's go to bed early. If there's any problems, we'll talk about them tomorrow."

As Ling Miao said this, she walked to her own room on the right, leaving Yao Yuan all alone outside, in a state of disorder.

"Forget it. Let's wait until tomorrow."

The depressed Yao Yuan lowered his head and returned to his room.
