Chapter 283 - Dirty Face, Frosty Hair
The slightly ware of the plains, giving it a dull luster Nanke stood at the edge of the water, her indifferent gaze looking forward She lifted up her right hand, bringing fresh water to her o down Her twoher a wet tohich to wash her face After a while, she felt her spirit had sohtly waved her hand in the air in front of her
Although there was nothing but wetland around them, the Garden of Zhou did not haveaway, but rather to produce a black curtain On this black curtain was a roughpoints of light Those lights were the life la the positions of their targets
Two of those life lamps were in the plains At times, they would be in the east, then they would be in the west, suddenly teleporting dozens of li It was like there was so force that prevented their exact locations frohts should be Zhexiu and Qi Jian They were already deep within the plains, so if all went as expected, they had no possibility of survival, so Nanke was not worried Her gaze was more focused on the other two life lasheng On that black curtain, their two points of light were exceptionally eye-catching They were very far away froathered in, and in addition, they had nottime This seeth to run It seened to her would soon be co old man had come down from the summit of Sunset Valley and met up with Nanke and her two maids As he looked at those life laoing as Nanke With concern in his voice, he said, ”Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng are both heavily injured, so they shouldn't be able to ardens, butthere are still some human cultivators that have concealed themselves in the mountains of the Garden of Zhou for all this time, and most of those hu What e do if Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng ?”
The plan that Black Robe had personally formulated eography He was exceedingly thorough in his understanding of the hurasp over the human psyche was perfect All this meant that it was sufficient for him to sneak only a few dearden into chaos If it were not for Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng, then perhaps the Garden of Zhou would have already turned into a slaughterhouse The probleht on to the deether In a head-on battle, regardless of hoerful the demon experts were, they still would not be able to stand up to several hundred human cultivators
Nanke's expression was still as cold as ever Not bothering to explain, she only said, ”In their situation, if Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng really did ht even die a bit sooner”
The water that was being splashed around as Xu Yourong radually calmed down, then beca's body was soaked by the water, all of which quickly froze into ice His eyebrows and the hair at his teray ahead of tie, but now see naturally noticed the peculiarities of his body and slightly raised her brows She once again took his pulse She sensed that while the person's true essence was still as lacking as ever, the wounds on his internal organs had stabilized It was just that his pulse and breathing were much slower than a normal person's, and she didn't knohether this was because of this person's cultivation method or if it was an omen of death
Her vision was still blurred from the poison, so she could only faintly make out that this person's face was covered with a layer of frost,him seem rather mature After a moment of silence, she suddenly stretched out her hand and rubbed the ice off his face, then she just stared, not understanding why she had just done what she did
Walking into the forest that was bathed in ht, she noiselessly walked over those soft and tender fallen leaves After advancing dozens of zhang, she stopped and gazed at the distant cliff in front of her
The people of the past had once treaded a path through this forest, and even though it was now covered by the leaves, its traces were still faintly discernible It continued forward, then began to curve its way up the cliff,down on the leaves, then took out the Tong Bow, pulling the bowstring out in a se it at soht into the forest, but while thethe forest dark and quiet, theas not sliced into pieces by the tree branches The gentle wind caressed the hair at the side of her face, which would occasionally brush lightly against the bowstring and yet notdown on the bowstring, ready in the next moment to explode with a powerful music
A leaf was blown off its branch by the wind It slowly descended through that blurry world in front her eyes, eventually resting directly in front of her feet
Her longbow did not move, her eyes did not blink, her expression was calm and focused She only stared at the cliff, at that place devoid of any human life
Just as that leaf rested in front of her foot, an elderly voice sounded out fro with this voice, a hand appeared, and around that hand's wrist was a gray string The hand held a wooden plaque, upon which an extrenia was drawn in vere paint Even fro off of it
All the human cultivators that entered the Garden of Zhou would possess the gray string The sect insignia on the wooden plaque was evidence of identity It was only a sis and did as s From this detail, one could tell that the owner of this elderly voice was exceedingly cautious
Xu Yourong could barely e and could not see any details, but the calm expression on her face certainly did not show it She felt an intense vigilance froht of the usual practice of the Garden of Zhou and the bloody battles that would usually take place She remembered that her clothes were stained with blood, and decided that it was easy for there to be a , so she said, ”Not an ene, they naturally could not be friends, but that did notfor her choice of words
After a moment, a man walked out from the direction of the cliff With his white hair and elderly face, he must have been at least a hundred years old While both his expression and pace seemed to be calh he had walked out, the right hand hanging by his waist held a ical artifact, ready at any time to take action, and he maintained what he considered a safe distance between hi
The distance had been very carefully chosen so that it would make both him and her feel safe If he was not a senior who had experienced many years of tribulations in cultivation, he would have definitely not displayed such an exquisite sense of propriety
Xu Yourong felt the aura that the man took no effort to conceal, and yet was not purposely e From this aura, she could confir expert Her rew tense, but the expression on her face relaxed
She let go of the bowstring and gripped the longbow as she said, ”May I ask Senior for his distinguished name?”
The rules of the Garden of Zhou had always been bloody and violent, and ardens and remained concealed in the mountains were often experts They were acies of the Garden of Zhou To ht be a fierce battle It was even highly probable that the person did not know of the demons’ presence in the Garden of Zhou!
