Fan Xian glided through the air, as if harnessing the essence of the at Tao stood fir the very power of the earth In the space of a few seconds, their zhenqi rass that paved their battleground
Lang Tao groaned, before twirling around to penetrate his knife deep into Xiao En’s chest
Lang Tao’sof Fan Xian and the slaying of Xiao En If he was unable to overcome Fan Xian inof Xiao En first; this was repeated to him many ti Tao with the heat of fire, but his enemy spun like a ind Both knives lusted for Fan Xian’s soul with each swipe, each et
As Fan Xian was unable to garner reprieve froround dying, transfor his teeth, Fan Xian committed to his most reckless act since the dawn of his new life He chose to disregard Lang Tao’s spinning blades, and instead take hold of Xiao En’s clothes In this reet either of the two at any second, Fan Xian raised his knee

Lang Tao suddenly felt a prickling pain stem from his ear, and so he raised an eyebrow in bewilderment
Fan Xian’s left calf was overco bolt Unable to pause, however, he grabbed Xiao En and pushed forward towards an open clearing so that he ht, he ran toward the cliffside and leapt off
Lang Tao was baffled, and his face froze aed to slice Fan Xian’s lower leg, but he questioned as to why the cut emitted a sound as if he had struck steel He was supremely confident in his abilities of swordplay, not to mention his competence with the sacred arts that h old and iron Even if his opponent were to have been clothed in heavy armor, he was sure that the strike he had dealt would have severed the leg clean off How then, had Fan Xian been able to withstand such a blow?
Lang Tao and Friar He approached the cliffside and glanced over the edge The sun shone brightly at this tih to pierce and disperse the thick fog which cloaked the valley All they had been able to gli ht A while later, an audible thud sounded froht to their ears, the mere fact that they were both able to hear the sound of soh, fatal drop, was a testament to the velocity of their fall
”TheyTao shook his head remorsefully and spoke: ”It will take more than that to kill Xiao En, and evenTao and Friar He were both of the sparse few that co Yet despite that, they were unable to defeat a severely wounded Xiao En and Fan Xian, the newest member to broach their rank Their inability to complete this task made their hearts stern
”It will be impossible for them to cli Tao scanned the valley once ht like razorblades The Four Great Grandmasters of the world would be unable to ascend the cliffs of such a place, so the thought of ordinary soldiers doing so was preposterous In agree and have a search party scour the mountains below to be doubly sure”
The two elites continued to peer into the mists below With troubled minds, they reflected upon their battle with Fan Xian and Xiao En There was soo to such lengths to save Xiao En?” Friar He asked, with uncertainty
”The strength Fan Xian displayed far exceeded the apprentice’s prior evaluation,” Lang Tao stated
All of a sudden, Lang Tao opened his eyes wide and shakily drew upon his knife, severing a part of his ear off without hesitation Friar He had always possessed unshakeable faith in what his ht him He frowned and looked upon his lap, where Fan Xian’s crossbow bolt had grazed hiht cut appeared black He grimaced and said, ”ThisTao replied with a deep voice: ”Have you forgotten that Fan Xian of the southern Qi Kingdom is renowned for his dishonorable tricks?”
Even as he said this, Lang Tao thought back to his combat with Fan Xian He could not help but wonder how his opponent possessed such overwhelhed upon his ressive and cruel zhenqi It was of greater power than any others he had ever bore witness to
What do people normally run into when they leap from cliffs? Do they see expert e? Infinite wealth?
When Fan Xian contemplated his leap fro an expert htly off-mark, he kneould be an abrupt farewell to the beautiful wo his return home The infinite wealth left behind by his mother would be squandered And so would the possibility of ever learning the secrets of the legendary to, would undoubtedly be burned by his Uncle Wu Zhu on his behalf
If he were to die there, he knew that his , unidirectional teaching strategies aside – would never be able to overco, Wu Zhu performed the leap-from-a-cliff trick for Fan Xian and at the ti he had ever witnessed Therefore, in time, he came to learn the ly Even on his honey Mountains, Fan Xian never let slip an opportunity to practice the trick so last paid off To do so with the weight of anothermist no less, was an incredible feat He , sliding, and stepping down along the smooth cliffside This manner of control also allowed hi spot, which was to be a protruding yet flat-faced rock far below
