Chapter 289 - If Life Could Be Like the Moment When We First Met (Part Two)

Time seemed to endlessly flow by, but in actuality, it passed very slowly Fro carried hi battle, not much time had passed The Garden of Zhou's sun had not risen ht together fell upon the forest Cut into every size and shape, thetheht suffused theazed off into the distance in silence

He had none of Zhexiu's natural instinct for danger, nor did he have the ability to use Xu Yourong's Fated Star Plate calculate the dangers ahead In those far off places bathed in the er, much less see any of his enemies But he felt that it was too quiet over there While silence was not a sufficient reason, he still felt that soh there were Three Thousand Scriptures of the Great Dao, he only cultivated the Dao of following his heart Those two de after hi human cultivator like that old freak And since he had no way of protecting himself, he could only rely on his senses, rely on the only Dao he had cultivated over his more than ten years of life

So without any hesitation, he turned and began walking through the forest to the other direction His expression was so This was because he was still severely injured and was now carrying the white-clothed girl on his back But even more importantly, it was because his body wasand heartbeat were at least a third slower than normal His eyebrows and the hair around his forehead were once again covered with frost The dehich stained his shirt had frozen into flakes of snohich were blown off his body by thewind, only for dew to rapidly freeze on his body once ain be blown off by the wind They fluttered down behind hih the forest

Not long after he left, heralded by a chilly air, Nanke and the zither-playing old aze moved across that trail of frost into the distance How sharp was her gaze that she could so casually glance at this trail and obtain sohad already awakened and he was carrying Xu Yourong on his back as they made their escape His injuries had clearly not recovered and his steps seehtly wide space between her brows According to what herhad been heavily injured last night He should still be hanging on the brink of death, so how did he so quickly recover? Her spiritual sense had also sensed Bai Hai's corpse in that cave, but she had no time to find out what had happened there She thrust out her arms to both sides of her body

Those two de without a trace A pair of green wings appeared behind her back, then with the whistling of the wind, she disappeared The zither-playing old man looked out of the forest and confirerous plain was not far frouessed at what ht occur But he had no other choice than to follow

The forest gave way to the shore of a pool of water Green patches of reeds took up his entire vision like they were about to fill the horizon, but in fact, the moment he passed this patch of reeds, he would be in the plains The cold Qi had helped Chen Changsheng suppress his wounds, but it had also greatly slowed hiswere far too slow, so he also walked very slowly It had taken hi time before he finally reached this point

He did not know that not too long ago, Xu Yourong had carried him out of that patch of reeds across frohtplains And yet he had no other choice except to follow his heart Following the path upon which he had coh the water, it brought ice along with it

He walked into the patch of reeds, and just as he was beginning to ponder whether he should risk going forward or turning to another direction, the sound of the wind on the shore told him that there was no need to think

With a cold and clear wind, the surroundings were suffused with a pure green light, robbing all the trees and reeds of their color

A little girl with a cold expression appeared on the shore She stared at hi her disheveled hair and bloodstained clothes, andwas startled, like he had seen so Besides, he was not holding his dagger right now because he knew that the difference in strength between hireat Since battle wasoff a very calm appearance

He had always been very cal occurred, he would never grow melancholy, nor would he ever lose his head in panic This part of his character allowed hie, and alsowas surprised, and now Nanke was also surprised She did not believe that this was the youth who had received such deep favor fro?"

Chen Changsheng had never met her, nor did he know that she was the Dehter However, yesterday on the lakeshore, he had heard Zhexiu mention that name From the look on Zhexiu's face back then, he was very certain that this little girl was extreet was the white-clothed girl on his back He thought that she had coilant than usual But he was also childishly happy—to think that not too long ago, he was just a young and unree, but now he had already et worthy of even the attentions of the ht this way, he returned the question "So you are Nanke?"

This was the first ti would meet Nanke, and this was also the first ti In the future, they would represent the huing in hand-to-hand co story that would only cause one to feel exhausted More than once, Nanke would think back to thatthey first met and would often feel a faint sense of remorse She would think to herself, if I had been a bit more decisive that day and not listened to any of his nonsense, then maybe I really could have killed him there, and then there would be none of these troubles or stories
