313 Untitled (1/2)

Epsilon smirked, and he was about to speak, but the door behind him suddenly opened. The old and frail Feng Xuan stumbled out and continuously panted as he leaned on the window. In a low tone, he asked, ”What… what's happening…”

Meng Fuyao looked at him, who was weak but still had handsome facial features. After carefully scrutinizing his eyes and eyebrows, she suddenly harbored a very daring thought.

She must have lived in this palace before, and she looked exactly the same as someone else. Could that someone have lived in the palace before? If so, would Feng Xuan recognize her?

Rather than fainting every time she came into contact with those objects in the abandoned palace, she might as well try to let others discover her.

If he recognized her, if he recognized her…

She shot into the sky.

With a flick of her sleeves, a lighter dropped into a bunch of flowerpots on the side. The lighter was ignited upon contact with wind, and in an instant, a huge fire raged. It brightened the dark palace, which was kept dim on purpose.

Feng Xuan, who was still leaning on the window, looked up in confusion.

At the same time, Meng Fuyao lept towards his direction, and she raised her hand to tear away her mask…

Meng Fuyao was in mid-air, and she was about to reveal her appearance in front of Feng Xuan.

However, a black figure suddenly crashed towards her.

The figure came in a strange manner. He flew out from the side palace, stepped on the window frame, and leaped into the air. While he was in mid-air, there was a white gleam. Three feet away, a green blade appeared, radiating a murderous and icy-cold aura. It was a legendary weapon in his hands.

While the figure was still a foot away, the famous sword had already neared Meng Fuyao and it aimed straight for her extended wrist. With a smirk, Meng Fuyao raised her hand to cut across the strike. When the hand was extended, it was as steady as a piece of jade, and it sliced the gleam of the sword into half.

Her fingers clasped the tip of the long sword. She didn't resist the strike, but she held the tip and hit it straight towards the person who had suddenly appeared.

However, that person did not stay on in the fight for long, and he abandoned his legendary sword. With a swift turn, he jumped through the window Feng Xuan was leaning on, and he grabbed Feng Xuan along with him. At the same time, he gave a strong back kick and shut the open window.

There was another bang as the window was tightly closed once again, and Feng Xuan was carried in.

Meng Fuyao was about to raise her hand to remove her mask again, but at this sight, she immediately stopped. For a long while, she looked furious.

And which bastard was it this time round, showing up unexpectedly and disrupting her plans?

It was obvious that he did not want to be in a life-or-death fight with her, and he only wanted to prevent Feng Xuan from seeing her. Judging by how determined he was to stop her, it was evident that he was an insider.

At this moment, the insider who would stop her from finding out the truth was most probably the foe who had harmed her years ago!

She could confirm that whatever had happened to her before she turned five was definitely nowhere good. Even if she disregarded that segment of history, she had been ”ruined” by the old Taoist priest for a decade, and she had suffered all kinds of torture to train her martial arts. After she had turned 15, she had been stranded around the Continent and had been continuously bullied. All these were the result of that bastard's actions!

Meng Fuyao boiled with anger. She raised her legs and made a dash forward.

Suddenly, Epsilon flicked his sleeves towards the direction of the floor.

His sleeves resembled steel blocks that created a trail of sparks as they brushed past the limestone staircase. He raised a finger, and the trail of sparks suddenly leaped onto his finger like a chain of stars. They flashed brightly, and the flames continued to flicker. Under the shine of the fire, Epsilon laughed cunningly. ”I may be injured, but you two seem no better. This is the perfect moment for me to show you the real difference between the top five and bottom five wielders in the top ten rankings.”

All of a sudden, he slowly turned around and exposed his back to Meng Fuyao.

When Meng Fuyao saw his back, a chill went down her spine. Though his clothes were torn and there was a vague scar, she clearly remembered that she had slashed with her dagger with much force. Even if the knife slipped out from her hands right after, she was able to create significant damage to Epsilon. But right now, the scar on his back was no longer bleeding. More shockingly, the long and narrow scar seemed to be quickly healing at a visible speed.

What an amazing recuperating ability!

While Meng Fuyao was still in shock, Epsilon suddenly waved his hand, and the unextinguished chain of fire sparkles created a bright arc in mid-air. There was little volume in the sparks, but strong inner energy and raging wind currents could be felt from the swing. With a force powerful enough to break apart the Heavens, Epsilon delivered his blow towards her!

Bam!

The ten-feet wide well was broken into half, and the bush that Meng Fuyao had lit up was extinguished in an instant. Thirty feet away, outside the main hall, the lantern that was lit up in the corner of the roof outside the palace suddenly swayed. The paper exterior of the lantern was suddenly sucked in towards the candle, and it caught on fire, turning into a ball of fire that fell. The entire courtyard of Aurora Spring petals was also silently crumbled into powder. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

The corner of Meng Fuyao's robes flew because of this violent slash, and it covered her face.

Meanwhile, her surroundings were pitch-black as all the sources of light were extinguished.

She could sense a chilly aura approaching her.

Someone smiled cunningly in the wind, and it sounded like he was right beside her ear. She vaguely thought that nothing would happen, but she suddenly felt a cold chill on her cheeks, followed by excruciating pain.

He was trying to ruin her appearance!
