Chapter Seven Hundred and Ninety Six – Rain Commanding Banner

Ruan You Xian’s presence suddenly changed. He seemed to become a tall mountain, vast and unmoving.

Ceng Lian’er’s eyes lit up. Naturally, she could see Ruan You Xian’s change. It had been so long since she encountered such an interesting opponent!

As a mo, Ceng Lian’er liked to fight. However, she usually suppressed the urge. It was rare to encounter such a strong opponent. This ignited her fighting spirit.

So what if it was a mountain!

Ceng Lian’er’s hands were spread open. The crescent moon behind her that was larger than she was tall spun in front of her. It twisted nimbly around her body.

“Moon, moon, strike!”

Ceng Lian’er’s unique voice that was both seductive and serene entered Ruan You Xian’s ears.

The moon was like a blade!

A sharp and icy presence came at Ruan You Xian’s head. Ruan You Xian did not have time to think, and chanted, “A mountain seen is not a mountain!”

The vast presence immediately changed to becoming something unpredictable like a mountain shrouded in the mist.

The moon accurately struck Ruan You Xian.

Hm!

Ceng Lian’er’s eyebrow jumped up. She could see that the moon had hit its target but Ceng Lian’er could feel that the attack had hit empty space!

This was a masterful technique!

Ruan You Xian’s counterattack immediately came, his right hand grabbing for Ceng Lian’er

Ceng Lian’er felt her view darken as though a mountain was crashing down on her. She had the feeling that she could not dodge it. However, Ceng Lian’er shattered the feeling in an instant. So what if it was a mountain?

Her fingertip drew a curve along the inside crescent of the moon, and the inner curve of the crescent moon in front of her suddenly lit up.

She moved her hand, and a string of light appeared in her hand. The crescent moon was a bow!

Her hand pulling the bow open, the were small crescent moons on the bowstring. They were icy and glowing like wind chimes that gave off clear sounds.

“Ding ding ding … …”

The pleasing sounds of the bells were like an enchanting tune that caused people to sink into it.

Dozens of little moon crescents drew out dozens of eerie and cold curves as they flew towards Ruan You Xian.

Ruan You Xian’s expression was grave. The moment that Ceng Lian’er pulled the bowstring, dozens of waves of killing intent locked onto him. There was a strong feeling of danger. His hand that was in the air immediately moved away from Ceng Lian’er and slapped towards the little crescent moon flying in the air.

Yet these palm-sized crescent moon were strange. Their flight paths did not have any pattern to speak of!

Ruan You Xian’s blow landed on empty air.

However, Ruan You Xian was not so easily defeated. With a cold snort, his blow changed. It became a steep peak with precipitous cliffs that once again headed for Ceng Lian’er.

Ceng Lian’er ignored it. She raised her arm, her fingers spread.

The crescent moon in front of her started to spin like a fan. It spun faster and faster, turning into a curtain of light that covered Ceng Lian’er.

The curtain flew towards Ruan You Xian’s blow.

Ruan You Xian was overjoyed. This was a chance! He could not attend to anything else. All of his shen power was gathered, the shen glyph at his chest growing like young tendrils that spread along his arm.

The bright light followed the shen glyph into his right hand.

A hand imprint left his hand!

The hand imprint did not move fast, yet the entire space seemed to be moved by this hand. No matter how it struggled, it could not break free!

All of space was being pulled. It headed for Ceng Lian’er with an indescribable pressure!

From the start of the battle to now, Ruan You Xian’s presence reached its peak!

At this time, he was like a tall mountain unable to be moved by the power of mortals!

Ceng Lian’er’s eyes grew brighter. She did not retreat, the light covering her growing as she moved forward and bravely charged straight up. Her speed was like a meteor, the crescent moon spinning rapidly appearing as a curved shield of light that covered her.

The little crescent moons flying in the air hummed in unison. They drew out strange paths and seemed to be attracted to Ceng Lian’er.

From far away, Ceng Lian’er appeared like a meteor followed by dozens of streams of light.

With a soul-shaking roar, Ceng Lian’er charged at Ruan You Xian without any finesse!

The two collided face on!

Boom!

Blinding light was released from where the two collided and immediately swallowed the two of them!

The rippling air currents were like sharp arrows that could not be stopped.
