C186 (1/2)

The cultivator said in a deep voice, ”Master told me that Miss Ruo Lan has matters to attend to and will be leaving today. Tell me to come and see you out.”

Hua Rui was startled, but she immediately smiled bitterly. Although she understood that Miao Yin was dissatisfied with her attitude last night, she never expected it to be so decisive.

Hua Ruo Lan took a deep breath and then smiled. ”I will have to trouble Miao Yin to keep it in mind. Please wait a moment, I will pack up and leave.”

After a while, Hua Rulan was ready and left the room. The cultivator didn't say anything. He just steered his flying sword into the sky. Hua Ruo Lan didn't waste any time and followed closely behind.

Floating above Ice Fire City and looking at the ice flames shooting up to the sky, Hua Rulan sighed in her heart. In the end, Miao Yin wasn't willing to let Jun Wu Yao off. It seemed that she, Hua Ruo Lan, hated him as well.

The two of them flew for more than three hundred kilometers before the cultivator finally stopped.

He cupped his fists towards Hua Ruo Lan and bowed, ”Miss Ruo Lan, I still have matters to attend to, so I won't be sending you off.”

Hua Ruo Lan nodded slightly: ”Thank you for your hard work all this time.”

”I don't dare.” The cultivator nodded at Hua Ruo Lan, turned around and left on his sword.

Hua Ruolan shook her head with a bitter smile. After a moment of silence, she flew in the direction of Jun Wu Xiang's residence. Since he had settled the matter on Miao Yin's side, the only thing he needed to do now was to wait for Xi Yue to reconstruct her fleshly body.

Hua Rulan was not in a hurry as she maintained her speed.

However, Hua Rulan had an inexplicable feeling all along the way.

”What's going on …” Hua Rulan muttered to herself.

While he was thinking, he suddenly felt a sense of danger.

Hua Rulan's figure suddenly transformed into a whirlwind and soared into the sky! She rolled her eyes and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

A sharp sword qi tore through the sky at the spot she was in just a moment ago!

Hua Rulan stepped on the Floating Cloud Ice Sword and stood in mid-air, her eyes narrowed as she looked down.

That sword qi was not only extremely powerful but also extremely sudden. If it wasn't for Hua Ruo Lan's perception being much stronger than the average Nascent Soul stage cultivator, and if she hadn't been on guard all this time, she probably would have been cut into two halves on the spot.

The person who came wasn't trying to injure or catch her, but was holding onto the intention to kill her.

With this realization, Hua Rulan's eyes glinted with a cold light.

The forest below was dense. The newcomers were hiding within it, not revealing the slightest bit of their presence.

The sword ray from before was extremely powerful, so naturally, it was unable to escape from Hua Rulan's senses. However, when he investigated further along the path of the sword ray, he could no longer find anyone.

It seemed that the man saw that he had not been hit, so he went back into the dark. However, it was only in the dark.

Hua Rulan could clearly feel that the opponent's aura was still locked on to her.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the Qi locked onto the target was no longer thousands of meters away. With Hua Ruo Lan's strength, as long as she locked onto someone with her Qi, she could even travel a thousand miles!

”Since you want my life, you have to make a move.” Hua Rulan laughed coldly as she controlled the Floating Cloud Ice Sword and once again flew in the direction of the cave that Jun Wu Yi was in.

Obviously, the other party would not be able to continue hiding.

Hua Ruo Lan had told Miao Yin that she would borrow 'Jun Wu Yao's' hand to help Xi Yue reconstruct her body, but she hadn't mentioned it in detail. Perhaps after the battle outside the cave that day, Miao Yin could faintly guess that Jun Wu Yao was currently in closed-door training. However, he did not know how long it would take.

Therefore, if the other party wanted to get rid of Hua Ruo Lan, she had to do so before she returned to her cave abode.

After all, even Miao Yin wasn't sure if she could win against Jun Wu Yao. Otherwise, with her hatred towards Jun Wu Yao, she wouldn't have stayed her hand.

Hua Ruo Lan didn't increase her speed, but slowed down her flight.

After the probing from before, Miao Yin should be very clear about Hua Rulan's strength. In that case, if she were to send out her assassins, she definitely wouldn't be so easy to deal with.

Hua Rulan understood that she had to keep herself in top condition at all times. If he were to travel at full speed, it would put him in a dangerous situation.

Finally, after half a day, three figures appeared in the sky in front of Hua Rulan.

Without saying a word, the three of them charged towards Hua Rulan.

Hua Rulan let out a cold snort. The Floating Cloud Ice Sword beneath her feet turned into a cold ray of light and immediately came forward to meet it. For a time, the sky exploded with rainbow-colored light, and all sorts of elemental energies interweaved.

Around Hua Ruo Lan's body, the 108 needles had set up a Dazzling Hundred Flower Array, firmly protecting her body. A Floating Cloud Ice Sword filled with boundless sharpness confronted the three people from before.

It seemed that Hua Rulan still had some energy left. However, she knew in her heart that the opponent was not really going all out either.

The three of them were all in the Nascent Soul Stage. If they were to use their full strength, it was definitely not something that a Floating Cloud Ice Sword could defend against.

Right now, the two sides were only testing each other.

Sure enough, after a short quarter-of-an-hour, one of the three men immediately let out a long roar. The Floating Cloud Ice Sword that could barely hold on immediately let out a sorrowful cry.

A cold light flashed through Hua Ruo Lan's eyes. With a light raise of her hand, the Floating Cloud Ice Sword immediately turned into a silver ray of light and returned to her hand.

”Thousand Snow!” Hua Rulan shouted in a low voice.

The originally blue sky was immediately swept up by bright clouds, as feather-like snow began to fall one after another. Within a circumference of a hundred li, there was a vast expanse with endless cold gushing out. It was as if the entire world had fallen into a hell of ice and snow.

Thousand Snow, the Heavenly Dao of Water. This was one of the most powerful offensive techniques that Hua Rulan had ever mastered!
