Chapter 298 1 (2/2)
Yue Lingkong rested her chin on her hands and her lips curved into a broad smile filled with excitement. Feeling interested, she then chipped in and said, “What’s the use of quarrelling? Come on, fight each other. Whoever wins will be the one who is right!”
If anyone who understood Yue Lingkong was around, he or she would definitely realize her eyes were flashing with mischief and wickedness at the moment.
That expression on her face would’ve been impossible to appear on the face of the dignified female tyrant in the past.
Upon hearing Yue Lingkong’s suggestion, the both of them no longer argued. Instead, the female corpse forcefully delivered a blow with her corpse devil palm while Xi Ran performed a hand seal, summoning a rattan whip made of demon power and whipped at the female corpse.
The female corpse was powerful among the cultivators at the same level as her whereas Xi Ran could be considered rather weak compared to those of her level. Despite that, it was a situation where both of them matched each other in strength and power.
Ning Fan was lost.
Why would that little loli Xi Ran simply yell and scream that she wants to marry me? Is my charm really that great?
He did not ask her. Even if he asks, perhaps Xi Ran would forget about her initial intention of involving herself in the fight. Now, she just did not want to lose to the female corpse.
Without uttering much, Ning Fan vanished in a flash and directly stood between the two females who were about to exchange more severe blows with each other. Raising both of his palms, he offset the two incoming attacks.
The female corpse’s palm was comparable to a strike from a Mid Divine Transformation Realm expert. She possessed strength which were strong enough to overturn mountains. Even ordinary Mid Divine Transformation Realm experts would never be able to receive a single palm attack from the female corpse.
But this time, when her palm and Ning Fan’s palm collided against each other, the earth trembled violently and the mountains swayed. Even so, Ning Fan did not show any signs of retreating and his strength was far greater than the female corpse’s!
Luckily, the force that Ning Fan exerted was subtle without having any capabilities of hurting the female corpse. However, his palm was enough to cause her to lose her balance. When she was about to fall, Ning Fan dashed towards her and held her in his arms.
Facing Xi Ran’s demon whip, Ning Fan simply hurled his hand and delivered a billow of black lotus devil flame. Within seconds, that domineering flame had burnt the Mid Divine Transformation Realm demonic technique to nothingness.
“The Third Level of Jade Life Realm?! No. This cucumber is still at the Second Level of Jade Life Realm. But judging from his qi, he’s already at the Third Level… How’s that possible?! Besides, when he stood in front of me, my Half-Step Void Refinement Realm spirit sense could not even sense a single trace of his qi… It isn’t because he was intentionally concealing his qi but because all his qi has already been kept within his body… That’s one of the characteristics of a corpse devil’s body refining technique!”
“Burning the technique to nothingness?! He literally turned that demonic technique into nothingness. The flame he displayed must at least be a level stronger than that of the demon whip! If I’m not wrong, that must be a Sixth Grade spiritual flame and among the flames of that grade, it should be ranked around the middle! However, why haven’t I learnt of that flame before? Besides, by the look of its appearance, it rather resembles the Fifth Grade Spiritual Flame, Lotus Corpse Flame. In spite of that, its power is totally different from that Fifth Grade Flame!”
Yue Lingkong and Wu Yan were both beings with sharp insight. At first glance, they were able to tell the uniqueness behind Ning Fan’s unintentional act.
Wu Yan did not have a complete knowledge about Ning Fan’s background. In her eyes, Ning Fan was always a man that she could never see through or understand completely. As such, it was not a big surprise for her to witness his power.
As for Yue Lingkong, however, she was a cultivator who had witnessed Ning Fan’s growth ever since he was still a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Therefore, in her heart, how could she still maintain her composure?!
Those deep-seated thoughts only existed in the minds of the likes of Yue Lingkong and Wu Yan. For females like the female corpse and Xi Ran, none of them had noticed how powerful Ning Fan’s action was at all.
Snuggling up inside Ning Fan’s arms, the female corpse’s face was no longer as pale as a ghost but it was still as cold as ice. Her heart however was a little confused.
Ever since she had been completely subdued by Ning Fan, she had never had such intimate contact with Ning Fan before. Now, the sudden hug from Ning Fan made her recall the memories when she was forced to copulate with Ning Fan in the past. Her blank but clear eyes flashed with a hint of fear as she began to struggle to break free as if she was afraid that Ning Fan would do something like that to her again.
Ning Fan’s eyes were slightly shocked.
This female corpse might be leaning close to me but she’s feeling dreadful of me at the same time…
It was the reason why he did not dare to lay a finger on the female corpse anymore when she was in his arms.
Letting go of her from his arms, Ning Fan gently rubbed her hair and looked at her with tender and affectionate eyes.
“Don’t worry. I will not hurt you anymore and I’ll never allow anyone to harm you…”
