Chapter 259: Desperateness’ Gentleness (2/2)

His shoulder was bleeding profusely, but he unconsciously acted like everything was nor prowess either

“Basword hit the left side of a black-clothedto retreat

Ye Gu Han snorted; his body was shi+ning a little He took advantage of the situation and swung his longsword in a wide semi-circle A cold-blue color emanated from it, and spread around the area He didn’t ht the three enemies at once The last of his sword’s poas about to exhaust… yet he still continued to press his opponents His body rose and then came down hard with a “thus touched the ground He caught hold of him firmly, and then shook him violently

He snorted as he lifted that ; he was beyond recall Wisps of blood sprayed out of his nostrils; the black-clad person still had a lot of energy stored for use However, Ye Gu Han had faced four people, but still had energy left to violently shake that man His superiority was evident

However, Ye Gu Han still didn’t retreat He straightened his back and floated in the air But, he suddenly stopped as he avoided another reat difficulty

This person was Li Wu Bei’s second disciple, Zhou Jian Ming He was also quite violent of nature He could see that Ye Gu Han wasn’t about to die so easily, and had been clinging to life for such a long ti couldn’t bear it anyreat sword to hack down on him head-on That sword had the assailant’s entire Xuan Qi concentrated in it Therefore, it was necessary for Ye Gu Han to evade it It was possible that Ye Gu Han would’ve been killed if he hadn’t evaded that attack

His eyes were blood red and cold as he retreated Zhou Jian Ming saw this and cried in exultation as he rushed forward to take advantage of such a retreat However, Ye Gu Han iinal position after the retreat Then, he continuously hacked at Zhou Jian Ming’s great sword three ti on fumes He was very exhausted after he had hacked-down on Zhou Jian Ming three tiy However, Zhou Jian Ming felt that he had just been attacked three tiehammers; very ruthlessly at that! He couldn’t help his face turning white as he staggered to retreat, and then spat out blood

Zhou Jian Ming wasn’t hen compared to Ye Gu Han However, he had hting experience by fighting only his fellow apprentice However, he was battling with Ye Gu Han now; atooth and nail like a ap between the two parties was very huge when it came to a ‘real’ life-and-death match; despite the fact that they were pretty evenly matched skill wise Therefore, it was natural that Zhou Jian Ming would individually lose

Ye Gu Han had been seriously injured Therefore, he wasn’t acting very recklessly He was also consuht Otherwise, his attacks would’ve been sufficient to take Zhou Jian Ming’s life in such a life-and-death confrontation between the two experts

Ye Gu Han thought that it was a pity He would’ve torn his opponent to shreds if his attack had gone well Then, he could’ve outflanked the rest of theht have had the opportunity to retreat and recuperate

However, Ye Gu Han couldn’t take it easy even though his previous strike had given hie His opponent’s Xuan Qi had struck-back, and it had made it hard for hiy to pull-off that one attack; he was now panting heavily He was rendered incapable to perform the quick and nimble move he had just pulled off

The fierce battle had forced hith The fact that Ye Gu Han had alone been pressed from all sides by five sied to hold them off up till that point was a miracle unto itself

His sword reseer The five assailants weren’t as strong as Ye Gu Han; unfortunately it would not h the oil of his lay left

There was a loud “bang” The other four assailants couldn’t help but be frightened to see Zhou Jian Ming nearly lose his life Their bloodshot eyes invariably turned towards the powerful sword Their eyes had a er and shame in them They shi+vered as they let out their murderous aura Their party had five Sky Xuan experts, but was being held back by a single one This was sireatest humiliation — ever

Noas the time to decide the victory and the defeat!

Ye Gu Han smiled bitterly; [it see Meng has escaped far enough…]

The dark blue light once again burned fiercely around his body; it was like a giant star that had responded in the night’s sky Ye Gu Han had concentrated the remains of his depleted Xuan Qi into his final strike

Zhou Jain Ming was ashary He howled terribly as he leapt madly into the air, and was followed by his four co to attack Ye Gu Han in the sky

Ye Gu Han accurately calculated the eneood opportunity He didn’t knohen the blood-red color disappeared from his eyes But he was now calm like a tranquil deep lake that had been left undisturbed

The only thing he couldn’t co for a considerable period of time… yet why had no one co’s Imperial Body Guards? Why hadn’t an expert from the Imperial Palace shown himself yet?

However, noasn’t the time to think about it

Ye Gu Han turned towards the inner part of the city He gave it a final and profound look

This look was full of ereat ocean of e sense of reluctance

[Xiu Xiu… I fear that I will not be able to protect your Ling Meng froet you… I had becoo… I’m aware that you will never be mine even in this o… I hate to part with you…]

[For you had always clai heart…]

[Xiu Xiu!]

[Will you be lonely if I cease to live in this mortal world? Will you shed tears for me?]

Ye Gu Han didn’t have anymore time to think since the sword attacks of his five enemies had descended upon hist thehed loudly and unihtly; his face was unhesitant, cal…

All the sweet memories of the past had quickly and had vividly flashed in hissilky hair that floating in the wind… that flower-like smile, and that ardent face so full of hope and expectation And finally, those tearful eyes looking at him with reluctance… all of it first became fuzzy, and then faded away…

The past twenty unfeeling years of Ye Gu Han’s life had just flashed through hisof inseparable love in his heart…
