Chapter 719: Chapter 796: Yu Die, Co with
Chen Nan completed the seventh step of Slaughter God Seven Steps, his body then fell from the sky.
Descending from a height of thirty ters, if he had been an ordinary martial artist, he would have either died or been seriously injured; but for the freak that Chen Nan was, such a fall posed little threat. Otherwise, he would not have pursued his opponent so high into the air.
“Boom!”
Chen Nan landed, his feet driving into the ground, his Protective Gang Qi shaking the earth and forming a deep pit.
Glancing at Kelly who had just stabilized himself, Chen Nan soared into the sky, calling forth his Demon Sword, the dark Sword Gang Qi devastatingly slicing towards Kelly’s face.
Kelly’s expression changed drastically, continuously chanting spells and conjuring two Xuanbing Shields in succession.
However, the disparity in their combat strength was simply too great.
With one slash from Chen Nan, the two Xuanbing Shields shattered instantaneously. The Sword Light’s montum remained unstoppable, relentlessly chopping towards Kelly’s head.
The initial advantage he had gained was solely due to his flying ability, catching Chen Nan off guard. Now, on equal footing, his Sixth Level of Taoist Magic Cultivation was utterly incapable of fending off Chen Nan’s attacks.
However, just as Chen Nan’s Sword Light slashed down, and Kelly was almost in despair—
“Crack…”
The sound of intense electricity crackled, and a massive thunderbolt descended from the sky, blocking Chen Nan’s attack.
The next mont, a young Western man appeared a hundred ters away in the sky, chanting spells non-stop, followed by his loud shout, “Wind Soaring Miles!” Suddenly, the sound of wind howled, and a tornado instantly enveloped Kelly and Hua Xian’er, whisking them away at high speed into the distance.
Chen Nan hastily pursued, but ultimately it was a step too late, and the rescuer managed to take the individuals away.
“Kelly Barrenk, you really do our mages proud, to actually be defeated by a low-level martial artist,” the young man looked at Kelly, then quickly flew off into the distance; and Kelly, with his head hanging low in dejection, followed behind without daring to utter a word.
Watching the others take Hua Xian’er away, Chen Nan clenched his fists, unable to pursue.
Although his Slaughter God Seven Steps allowed him to take to the air, it was ultimately limited to seven steps and insufficient to catch up with his opponents.
“If only that Black Feathered Chicken were here.”
Chen Nan sighed and turned to walk back up the mountain.
Ever since the Black Feathered Chicken returned from its old nest, it had been using Spiritual dicine to recover in seclusion, and after going to the Famous dicine Mountain Villa with Chen Nan last ti, where it cultivated for three months, its strength had now recovered to the Second Level of Imperial Realm. Transford into its True Body, it was almost as tall as a table and could easily carry Chen Nan into the sky.
Unfortunately, since returning from the dicine Villa, the creature had secluded itself again upstairs to recover; with its assistance, Chen Nan would have been much stronger.
…
By the ti Chen Nan returned to the mountain peak,
three of the remaining five great elders of the Desire Palace had been slain, the other two surrendered.
As for the Desire Palace disciples, more than half were dead or injured; the rest followed the two elders and pledged allegiance to the Sky Sword Sect, and the battle had co to a complete end. Hua Yunfei, who had been repulsed by a palm from Chen Nan before, was found dead under a big tree a hundred ters away, having died from ruptured internal organs.
“Young Brother Chen, we owe you a great debt this ti.”
Seeing Chen Nan return, Fang Jingshan personally ca forward to express his gratitude, then asked, “Did you catch that Evil Woman, Hua Xian’er?”
Chen Nan shook his head and said, “She was rescued by two mages.”
“Mag… Mages?”
Fang Jingshan could hardly believe his ears, and he asked, “You an the mages from Western legends, thought extinct for a thousand years?”
Chen Nan nodded and confird, “That’s right, I’ve already clashed with them, there’s no mistake. They chant spells before using their power, and they hold a magic wand, identical to what’s described in ancient texts.”
Fang Jingshan was dumbfounded.
After pondering for a long while, he sighed and said, “Even mages who have been extinct for many years have appeared, it seems the world is truly going to be plunged into chaos.”
Chen Nan frowned deeply, “The world plunged into chaos? What do you an by that?”
“All kinds of cultivation systems are clashing, this is an extrely unsettling era, an era that belongs to geniuses,” explained Fang Jingshan with a solemn expression.
Chen Nan still didn’t quite understand and looked at him with confusion.
But Fang Jingshan just smiled without speaking, obviously not intending to elaborate further.
Chen Nan didn’t feel it was appropriate to press further, as their relationship had just eased from one of enmity. He smiled and said, “Sect Leader Fang, now that the Desire Palace has been defeated, the agreent we made before should still stand, right?”
“Of course,” Fang Jingshan nodded and replied, “Today, you’ve done a great favor for my Sky Sword Sect. Bygones will be bygones, and from now on, let’s turn our weapons into jade and silk. As for Yu Die, if she wishes to go with you, I, Fang, will certainly not stop her.”
Chen Nan bowed with his hands clasped and said, “Thank you, Sect Leader Fang.”
“Today you saved our Sky Sword Sect from a desperate situation, it’s I who should thank you,” Fang Jingshan said with a head shake and a smile.
Chen Nan exchanged pleasantries with him for a few monts, then hurriedly ran towards the main hall.
However, when he arrived at the main hall, he couldn’t find Gongsun Yudie. After searching around aimlessly for a while, he finally asked a Sky Sword Sect Disciple and learned that she had already returned to the stone cave.
Without a second thought, Chen Nan quickly ran toward the stone cave.
But when he arrived at the stone cave, he found Gongsun Yudie sitting on a slab of stone with her eyes brimming with tears, sparkling teardrops falling continuously down her cheeks.
“Why are you crying?”
Chen Nan hurriedly ran over.
Gongsun Yudie wiped her eyes and shook her head with a smile, “It’s nothing, are you planning to leave today?”
“I’ll leave in a bit…”
As Chen Nan spoke, he noticed sothing was wrong with her complexion and quickly said, “What do you an, I leave? Co with !”
Gongsun Yudie shook her head and said nothing.
The smile on Chen Nan’s face stiffened and he asked, “Aren’t you coming with ?”
Gongsun Yudie nodded her head.
Chen Nan asked, “Why?”
“The Sky Sword Sect is my ho,” Gongsun Yudie said as she looked at him. “You ask to leave my ho and go with you. Where can you take ? Can you give a ho?”
Chen Nan fell silent for a mont.
He certainly knew that the ho Gongsun Yudie spoke of was not a type of house.
Gongsun Yudie sighed and said, “I know you an well for , but you can’t give what I want. There are too many won in your heart. Even if I went with you, I couldn’t be your only woman, could I?”
“I…”
Although Chen Nan was usually slick with words, he now found himself at a loss for words.
What Gongsun Yudie said was true, even if she agreed to leave, he couldn’t give her any promise at all.
Seeing Chen Nan silent, Gongsun Yudie hesitated for a mont and then said with so hopefulness, “If you can promise to give a warm ho and only have as your woman from now on, I’d be willing to leave everything behind and go with you, but can you do that?”
