Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Two Maidens

Tian Ran leapt to the top of the cavern for a better viewpoint. All around here was white light and illusions. She saw an Apotheosis Realm soul race member engaged in battle with another species that saw the former as an invader.

Tian Ran headed the other way for a kilometre when a white light from behind streaked her way. “Who’s there?”

Tian Ran spun to her side and intercepted the attack with her sword but was instantly overwhelmed, forcing her to retreat.

“How are you doing, Divine Maiden?” Yue Hansha, rank three ultimate immortal, deployed his domain to trap his prey immediately.

“Who are you?”

“This one is Ye Hansha. Mu Yu certainly is a lucky man.” Yue Hansha casually peered into the distance where there was Apotheosis Realm soul energy being blasted around. “I just came to check on the situation, but I’m in luck.”

“What do you want?”

“Miss Tian Ran, you swept me off my feet from the first time I laid my eyes on you. If Lord Bai didn’t stop me from approaching you, we could’ve eloped from Secular World Sect, right?”

“You disgust me!” Tian Ran raised her sword overhead to draw power from the heavens and slashed.

“Celestial swords may be impressive, but they won’t even tickle me.” With depraved eyes, Yue Hansha triggered a white web, erasing Tian Ran’s slash in its grasp.

TIan Ran retrieved her sword and started searching for escape options as she had not reached Apotheosis Realm.

Yue Hansha reached out to grab Tian Ran. Tian Ran emitted golden light from her body, turning it into a golden lotus. She activated a formation at her feet, combusting a hole in Yue Hansha’s domain to flee. The vitality Mu Yu took from the linden tree for her did not serve her. Fortunately, it worked well in conjunction with her Secular World Lotus Style since golden lotus flames were the Achilles of soul energy.

“Let’s see how far you can run.”

Tian Ran tried to remain calm as her wits was all she had to fall back on against a superior opponent. She could not afford to light up her golden flames again as it would have meant burning away her own vitality. Hence, her only choice was to head for the forest up ahead.

“You’re mine!”

Yue Hansha extended his arm to grab Tian Ran upon catching up, only for a domain to suddenly manifest, one that almost brought him to his knees – I Reign Supreme!

There was no way Yue Hansha would risk his neck challenging Archfiend Qinglong, a fiend born to be king, for anything, so he zoomed off in the opposite direction. Only once his fear subsided did Yue Hansha realise it was a bluff as he would have already been dead if Archfiend Qinglong actually showed up. By the time he turned around, however, Tian Ran had already disappeared, not that it meant he gave up on chasing the two.

Yue Hansha scanned a bank he arrived at and yelled, doing another lap before he left. An hour after he departed, a bubble emerged from the strong current, revealing Tian Ran and Qiao Xue.

“It’s safe now,” Qiao Xue informed in a soft voice.

Similarly to Tian Ran, Qiao Xue, who went to Tian Ran’s aid, went under everyone’s radar. Qiao Xue strode across the water to reach the bank and sat down on a rock.

“Thank you.”

Qiao Xue smiled. “I was just passing by.”

“I… thought you would have already reached Apotheosis Realm,” Tian Ran said, breaking the awkward silence.”

“No. Grandpa Qinglong merely loaned me his domain ability for self-defence.”

“Sorry for making you waste it on me.”

“It’s all right. I still have several more… Plus, he would be sad if any harm befell you.”

A red, hot blush bloomed on Tian Ran’s cheeks for she was aware Qiao Xue was referring to Mu Yu.

The both of them are so similarly optimistic, lively and innocent. No wonder why Mu Yu likes her. If only I could be the same, thought Qiao Xue.

She’s like a pure goddess with a voice and kind personality to match her ethereal aura. No wonder why Mu Yu likes her. If only I could be the same, thought Tian Ran.

I have to ask Mu Yu who he likes when I see him again, Tian Ran and Qiao Xue decided to themselves, clamping their teeth down on their lips as the corners of their lips rose.
