The Secret to Picking Up Girls

Zhang Yuze knew that time was of the essence, as delays could lead to unforeseen complications. He immediately helped the girl up, placed his hand on her back, and activated the Holy Light Technique. A golden light began to swirl from Zhang Yuze's hand, then flowed into the girl's body. Soon, Zhang Yuze could clearly feel the girl's body surging with energy, as two opposing forces began to clash.

However, Zhang Yuze didn't dare to channel his energy too aggressively, because the girl's body was delicate. If he pushed too hard, she might die even if she wasn't already sick. This put Zhang Yuze in a difficult position. Still, he decided to adopt a slow and steady approach, gradually trying to force the energy out of her body. But then, Zhang Yuze suddenly realized that things weren't as simple as he had thought. Although the energy wasn't controlled by anyone, it was extremely cunning. Forcing the foreign energy out of her body bit by bit wasn't going to be easy. Moreover, it was consuming a great deal of Zhang Yuze's mental power and energy. In just a few short minutes, Zhang Yuze already felt extremely strained.

Zhang Yuze slowly withdrew his hand, his forehead covered in cold sweat. He looked at the girl's clothes, which were covered in black spots. Zhang Yuze was stunned for a moment before realizing that these must be the residue left behind after the energy had been evaporated!

Zhang Yuze felt somewhat helpless. Although he had put in so much effort, he still couldn't completely force all the energy out of the girl's body. He had only cleared away less than two-thirds of it, and he had no way to proceed. Judging by the concentration of the black energy on the girl's body, she must have been the first one to be invaded by this energy. Zhang Yuze realized that all he could do was delay the onset of her symptoms, which was only a temporary solution. As long as these foreign energies weren't completely cleared away, they would soon make a comeback.

If his cultivation were a little deeper, he might have been able to do something, but there was no point in saying that now.

Looking at the other five girls, the black energy on their bodies wasn't as strong. It seemed possible to delay their symptoms for a while longer, which was a comforting thought for Zhang Yuze.

Suddenly, Zhang Yuze felt a surge of energy nearby. Just as he became alert, a black figure appeared before him.

"It's you," Zhang Yuze thought, very wary. But when he saw the girl in front of him, he realized it was none other than the black-clad masked girl.

"Heh heh, what's wrong? Aren't you happy to see me?" The masked girl looked at Zhang Yuze and smiled.

Of course, Zhang Yuze was happy to see her, even feeling a slight stirring of excitement in his heart.

"Do you know what's going on with these girls?" Zhang Yuze felt that this girl had a mysterious background, and thought she might know something. So, Zhang Yuze looked at her with hopeful eyes.

"Don't look at me like that. These girls are probably being affected by the Demon King's energy, right? I don't know much more than that either," the masked girl said, her expression also showing a hint of helplessness.
