Chapter 1182 “Bai Ning’s admirer (2)”
Bai Yan’s expression sank at the imminent threat to her own life. According to the woman’s own assessment, this man was likely at the High Divine stage while she herself stood at the Bottom Divine level. It’s not looking good no matter how she weighed it.
For one, she didn’t have Dragon Flame or Half Qing Sing around so relying on back up was out of the question, and she only has her sword Godslayer around, the terms are not looking good.
Flickering a cunning light in her eyes since fighting was out of the question, Bai Yan suddenly cried out and pointed to the area behind the man: “Bai Ning?”
Bai Ning?
What?
Drained of color from his face, Ning Yuan hurriedly swings his head around in search. However, what he found wasn’t the familiar figure of the woman whom he loves, its… emptiness? There’s nothing, only air and the occasional bristling of the breeze against the greenery.
Outraged at being tricked, the man immediately swung his head back towards the woman in question. Unfortunately for him though, no one’s going to sit around and wait for him to kill them.
“Stinking girl, how dare you deceived me!” He cries out in utter disgust towards the trailing red light that disappeared from his view.
Make no mistake, Ning Yuan was not one to be so easily fooled. The only reason he was in this case was because of Bai Ning’s name. He would do anything to get on her good grace, and by anything, it’s anything….
Not far away, Bai Yan was still fleeing for her own life when she cast a glance to the back, and that’s when she saw the man right at her tail. Her heart pumped at this sight. Without another thought, she drew her Godslayer out to block the oncoming punch.
In a roaring explosion of force, Bai Yan found the air fleeing her chest as metal met flesh from the exchange. Tumbling right out of the air, she crashes down to the floor in a loud smacking thud. Blood spewed out of her mouth as a result of the impacting injury.
“Girl, I like to see how far you can get with your measly strength!”
Bai Yan did not respond to the threat, only grasping heavily to her Godslayer while using those watchful eyes to keep a wary look at the enemy in front. But then an idea hit her again upon noticing something. Sneering in her voice: “If you’re going to kill me anyways then why not tell me the truth? This way I can at least die without grievance.”
Cracking a laugh at the woman, Ning Yuan happily obliged over those sweet words: “Alright, I don’t mind at all since you’re going to be a corpse soon enough.” Taking a couple of steps forward, the pressure surged out of the man’s body and swamped over Bai Yan’s face and made her flinch. “I have no grudge against her, on the contrary, Bai Ning’s the woman of my world, I love her!”
When speaking about his greatest desire, the man gradually lost the murderous intent in his eyes and replaced it with gentle kindness, a sight Bai Yan didn’t expect to see from the person.
“I fell in love with her at first sight years ago. At the time she had just given birth to a daughter not long and sent the baby away. Apparently she was being pursued by some enemy, and that’s when I picked her up by passing through….” A gleam seems to glow out of his eyes when recalling the past tale.
