1108 The Bright Moon In The Sky I (2/2)

Sangsang turned around. A bench made from osiers appeared out of nowhere. she looked him while she asked, ”Do you think our kids will like this?”

Ning Que said, ”I like it very much. I'm positive that they will like it too.”

Sangsang looked at him in silence before she said abruptly, ”What did you say in that small wooden hut?”

After a brief pause, Ning Que replied, ”I said that… it's not compulsory to do it.”

Sangsang said, ”Yet, you want to write the word.”

Ning Que responded, ”Yes.”

Sangsang gazed at the night sky.

Chang'an was clear of snow and rain tonight. There was a bright moon in the sky.

”I'll write the word… even if I have to sacrifice my life for it.”

”I have never agreed with this.”

Sangsang continued, ”Right now, I have no idea how to aid you despite my will to help.”

Ning Que spoke, ”I understand.”

”And? ”

”That's all.”

Ning Que looked at her and said, ”No one has the right to demand your sacrifice even if it's for humankind. Moreover, I'm the least qualified person to request for your help. Therefore, I have nothing else left to say.”

Sangsang's gaze landed on his hand. She noticed he was holding the Core Vajra of the Array so tightly, to the extent that his knuckles were blanching.

From Ning Que's point of view, Chang'an was a safe place. The Abbey Dean would not be able to take any action even if he arrived at Chang'an. However, the battle was not over yet. The final victory, that would land either on the Abbey Dean, Eldest Brother, or West-Hill, was crucial.

He appeared calm. But, in actual fact, he was overwhelmed with uneasiness.

...

The cloud above the town swirled in agitation, resembling an anguished human face. The face was staring at the earth, studying every corner of the human world. Thus, everyone who could see it, saw it.

With thousands of feet between them, the Abbey Dean and Eldest Brother were standing at the cliff outside the city of Helan. Their green shirts were worn out and their cotton-padded gowns were significantly stained with blood. Two days and one night were sufficient for many things to happen.

There was neither witness nor record keeper to the battle at the cliff. Otherwise, it would definitely be ranked as one of the top five battles in history in terms of level and intensity.

The Abbey Dean looked at that cloud at the south. After a prolonged silence, he spoke, ”The Drunkard has actually died.”

The incident was deemed impossible even for the Abbey Dean. He, too, was rather appalled by the Drunkard's death.

Saying nothing, Eldest Brother followed the Abbey Dean's gaze.

The Abbey Dean turned to Eldest Brother and said, ”They have returned to Chang'an. You don't have to stop me anymore.”

Eldest Brother raised the wooden stick calmly and placed it in front of his brows. He spoke no word but his intention was clearly delivered.

Ning Que and Sangsang had returned at Chang'an after they successfully overcame all the obstacles. Since the Abbey Dean was unable to enter Chang'an, it was only reasonable for him to stop risking his life to hinder the Abbey Dean.

The Abbey Dean asked, ”What are you doing?”

Eldest Brother answered, ”Teacher has read the Seven Tomes of Arcane.”

The Abbey Dean kept quiet for a moment and said, ”Seemingly, you know my plan.”

Eldest Brother replied, ”More importantly, I know how you want to execute it.”

The meaning of that sentence was not as clearly delivered as the wooden stick before his eyebrows. However, if one was to study his words in details, one could figure out the hidden yet crucial messages in his reply.

Chang'an might be able to help in Ning Que's win against the Abbey Dean, but it could not stop the Abbey Dean from snatching Sangsang's divine character. The Headmaster of Academy had studied the Seven Volume of Sky Books and understood that there was a reason behind every secret of Taoism.

The Abbey Dean dwelled in his thoughts before he vanished.

It was then followed by Eldest Brother's disappearance.

The cliff that witnessed the battle between the two strongest humans alive remained silent.

...

If one continuously headed north, one would eventually arrive at the bottom of the Snow Mountain no matter which side of the world one departed from. The Snow Mountain was the tallest mountain in the world. A few years ago, the mountain was broken into half by the fallen meteorite that travelled at light speed. Although the top half had fallen into the dark ocean behind the Snow Mountain, but it remained as the tallest mountain in the world.

Undoubtedly, Snow Mountain was the tallest among all. Similarly, the Abbey Dean and Eldest Brother were undoubtedly the strongest among all. Hence, it was the most suitable choice to pick this place as their final battle ring.

The stars from the sky gleamed on the Abbey Dean's swords as he walked toward Eldest Brother. The stars in the night sky were beautiful and dazzling, so was the sword. No one could tell what was the sword made from.

Eldest brother, too, could not identify the material of the sword. Therefore, without looking at the sword, he simply attacked forward with his wooden stick. With a swoosh, the wooden stick had arrived before the Abbey Dean.

With a block from the Natural Stream Magical Finger, the stars in the sky shifted along with the sword and stopped the ferocious attack. A single star was separated from the night sky and fell on Eldest Brother's hand that was holding the wooden stick. Immediately, fresh blood oozed out of his hand.

The stick was blocked, but it was still moving forward.

A buzz resonated softly.

The ebony hair stick between the Abbey Dean's hair was broken subsequently. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

His hair fell onto his shoulders and fluttered along the winter wind.

He looked at Eldest Brother as he praised, ”Li Manman, no one will say that you're slow anymore.”
