Chapter 138 - A Coincidental Encounter (2/2)

BANG!

With a deafening blast, a shocking Saber Intent erupted, which filled the pitch-black cave in a blinding light.

The giant beast in the shadows was revealed by the light; upon seeing the slash, a humanlike behavior could be observed—its bloody red eyes filled with panic.

At that instant, the giant beast went into a frenzy, granting it terrifying speed, as it bumped into the walls of the cave continuously, causing countless rocks to fall from above.

Qin Nan did not expect such a huge-sized beast to have such impressive speed at this crucial moment; despite that, his strongest slash still ended up landing on the piece of scale!

BANG!

The beast was struck downward to the ground by the attack, which penetrated the thick scale, and mutilated it.

ROAR!

The huge beast let out a roar of pain, before crashing wildly into the walls of the cave as it escaped toward the exit at great speed.

Qin Nan glanced at its figure, with no intention of chasing it down. He then proceeded into the deeper region of the cave.

When he reached the end of the cave, his eyes were filled with astonishment.

A swamp appeared before him, with a layer of ice formed on its surface, giving it a dazzling appearance.

On top of the layer of ice were many pink-colored flowers, with a crystal-like appearance. The flowers were emitting a rich Qi, causing them to be eye-catching.

Qin Nan collected his thoughts, and with a quick glance, he counted eighty Crystalline Flowers in total, exactly as Princess Miao Miao had said.

“I have no idea where she got this map from, with such precise intel…” Qin Nan thought, but without further ado, his face filled with excitement as he reached out his hand to pluck the Crystalline Flowers.

However, a sudden occurrence took place. Voices could be heard coming from the entrance of the cave.

Qin Nan frowned his eyebrows; he had not expected someone to be here at that instant. He immediately retrieved the Crystalline Flowers and went toward the exit.

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the cave stood five ladies.

These five ladies were all wearing green dresses, with attractive appearances and marvelous physiques. The one leading the other four carried an ancient sword on her back; her appearance was slightly better than the others, and her face filled with a noble aura.

When Qin Nan arrived at the cave’s entrance, the one leading among the five girls began to speak, “Which sect are you from?”

Qin Nan glanced at her, and frowned his eyebrows once again.

At that instant, a surprised voice could be heard, “Big brother, it’s you. I did not expect us to meet so soon!”

Qin Nan instinctively looked in the direction of the voice, and was stunned after seeing the lady wearing a green long dress from before. He too did not expect them to meet so soon.

The lady’s face was filled with surprise, which blushed as she said, “Big brother, what’s your name? Mine is Chen Xu’er, you can call me Xu’er. I didn’t even had the chance to thank you for saving me then…”

After saying this, Chen Xu’er began to walk toward Qin Nan.

The prideful lady—who appeared to be the leader among the five—had her expression change slightly, as she reached out her hand and pulled Chen Xu’er back, before saying in a harsh tone, “Xu’er, you can’t go!”

Chen Xu’er was stunned for a moment, before she curled her lips and replied in an unsatisfied tone, “Senior Sister Wang, what are you doing? Didn’t I tell you just then that he is the big brother who saved me? If it weren’t for him, I would be dead by now.”

The prideful lady glared at her, before switching her gaze to Qin Nan and saying coldly, “What’s your plan for approaching Xu’er?”

Qin Nan was stunned for a moment, before he burst out laughing, without any interest in speaking.

Chen Xu’er panicked after hearing this, “Sister Wang, what are you saying…”

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted straight away by the prideful lady, whose eyes remained glued to Qin Nan, as she said with a hollow laugh, “You may be able to trick Xu’er, but you won’t trick me. The beast from before was sent running by you, right? The beast had a strength of the third-layer Xiantian Realm, but your cultivation base is only at the half-Xiantian Realm, so you must be an Atavistic Cultivator. Even so I, Wang Ruoling, am not afraid of you; I would be honest if I were you!”
