Chapter 273 - Shooting Stars

Nanke’s expression was stern yet proud Her gaze was concentrated and serious Her eyes were like two sharp awls staring at Xu Yourong The speed she spoke was not sloever it did not have any variation in intonation, which made her seem especially apathetic She clearly had the appearance of a young girl, but it gave an observer the feeling that she overlooked and looked down on all living things, exuding great confidence

The two reatest innate talent, in the younger generation of the Human race and the Demon race finally met on the peak of Sunset Valley It could be said that it was destiny for the to meet The battle was fated to be recorded within the books of history Before it began, there was definitely a ceremonial feel between the two Nankelady an to converse

“So you are Xu Yourong”

The night wind on the , so she was unable to hear whether the white-clothed young lady replied “yes”, but… yes, she was Xu Yourong

She was that reincarnated Heavenly Phoenix, the young expert who had the greatest prospects on the continent of that current day She was the next Holy Maiden of the south, the junior that the Tianhai Divine Empress loved the most, and Qiushan Jun’s most beloved and respected junior However now, she had an additional identity that was known by the world—the fiancee of Chen Changsheng, the principal of the Orthodox Academy

Nanke stared at her and sized her up Her thin broere slowly raised, and her indifferent face revealed an unhappy and disappointed expression “Those norant people often co so you today, I’ht, and she asked so?”

Nanke raised her hand and pointed at her “Just like your current expression of curiosity, it causes people to be just very disappointed Your nani wife You are not tall either… I really don’t understand exactly why humans admire you, that even my brother views you as a treasure”

A deh he had never seen her This was not a secret on the continent at all What was interesting was that although the hu wishful, they were not really angry at all, and instead felt proud and joyful for some reason It was also this which caused Nanke to be unashary, and only found it to be very new Thinking about it again, how did this village girl who cut pigweed every day see Nanke in the rumors?

However, some of what Nanke had said made her very unhappy—Nanke said that she was not tall Her stature indeed was not tall; especially with the large white robes on, she see pondered a little, and then sh she said this while s that, Nanke’s expression also grew serious The dullness in her eyes was replaced with rage

Especially because Xu Yourong raised her head slightly She see arrogant Hoas she not aze shifted doards fro silent for a while, she said, “To not know shame, you are also unafraid to tarnish the blood within you”

Xu Yourong felt slightly shy but she continued to srew even madder, and said, “You just make me too disappointed Just why are you equally as well known as me?”

When she spoke, her black hair danced crazily in the night, actually suppressing the darkness of the night

In the hureat people like the Pope or the Divine E people like Zhexiu who often made contact with the Demon race However, in the land of deth and tyranny

Nanke was one of the youngest daughters of the De life of the De that had their names recorded in books reached a number of several dozen The reason her na in Xuelao City was reat, and she was the only disciple of Black Robe

“You only broke through to Ethereal Opening this year I succeeded last year, and I aer than you As a result, it is very obvious that I a, and said without an expression, “Coht fairly Allow me to prove your weakness, to let the entire continent know exactly who can fly higher between us”

Xu Yourong did not say a word As the person being challenged, she naturally revealed so old man always stood silently to one side as a bystander He did not dare to turn down the requests of Nanke Even though he had lived for several hundreds of years, seeing this, he still felt so to now, the fated battle that was destined to shake the entire continent just seenificant affairs

Of course, this could not be the entire battle The battle relied on fighting to determine life and death, and only afterwards could victory or defeat be seen

At the peak of Sunset Valley, wind suddenly began blowing, bringing chaos to the night Borrowing the h the air Her sas already in her hand, piercing towards Xu Yourong

Although the surface of Nanke’s sword did not seem to have any special features, the sas actually very special

This sas extreant This was because the sas very long—an abnorer than those ancient scholar trees beneath the mountain

The sword style that Nanke used also did not seem to have any special features It seemed to be just direct thrust forwards, however, because of its succinctness, it carried unbelievable strength

The wind ian to bloildly It blew around the flat peak, producing a terrifying roar

In the air several hundreds of feet above the peak, a single bright stroke suddenly appeared

In the deep abyss several dozens of feet below the cliff, a faint,stroke also appeared

That was the border of the space the zither-playing oldthe sound of the zither

With such a level of subtlety and cleverness, even Xu Yourong could not help but temporarily stay within the space Yet it was directly cut by the sword intent of her si was this sword energy!

The strike arose fro head-on

Seeing the strike, Xu Yourong did not reveal any expression of surprise, nor did she carry the iilance Instead, she felt that it was very logical

This was because she kne strong she was herself, and as a result, she also should have kno strong Nanke was She was already prepared for this strike

In the bow fro in front of her

Perhaps it was due to the fact that the strike was too quick, but she could not e to pull an arrow fro was eers, and pulled the bowstring gently yet firmly Then she released

The wholeclouds and water However, it was also abnormally succinct and clear, as if everyoldthe zither, so the sound of the zither between the cliffs had stopped too

At this ly As a result, the sound of a zither e sound… twang!

Fro drew her bow at Nanke

However, there were no arrows on the bowstring, so as shot?

As soon as the sound of the bowstring began, the sound of an arrow resonated in the night sky

This sound was very clear, and lasted even longer, as if it had already resounded in the night sky for a very long ti heard, and only now could the world hear it

An arrow eht, and shot towards the area between Nanke’s eyes like a lightning bolt

Where did the arrow co had shot after calculating for a long time from beside the lone tree

It was believed that because of the obstruction of the space, the arrow had disappeared between the cliffs However, it seeht sky, and only now could it be seen by the world

The arrow shot from beside the lone tree arose several !

On the peak of Sunset Valley, gravel rolled quickly and powerful Qi radiated in all directions The dark night was unable to cover up the streams of air created froh cliff face, countless thin cracks appeared

Th cracks all originated from the bottom of Nanke’s boot

Her feet were very s on the cracks that rippled towards the side of the cliff, theyscene
