A little bit of brilliance flew up into the sky and pa.s.sed through the dark clouds. After a moment, a little bit of light broke through the clouds, and the dark clouds over the Twilight City scattered away.
The moonlight sprinkled on the ground, and stars adorned the pitch-black sky. It was extraordinarily beautiful.
Shen Yanxiao was stunned; looking at the sky that she had not seen for a long time, she could hardly believe her eyes.
In the underground city of The Rising Sun City, her Phantom partners had created an artificial night sky for her. She had never thought that when this great master took a shot, he would actually brush the dark clouds above away...
"You have dispelled the dark clouds?" Shen Yanxiao looked at the expressionless Xiu and asked. The dark clouds that covered the Barren Land for over thousands of years actually disappeared… just like that?
Although only the clouds above the Twilight City were dispelled, the result was still difficult for Shen Yanxiao to digest.
Fierce, too fierce!
Xiu replied, "It’s only for a while. The dark clouds over the Barren Land were brewed by the atmosphere of the Devil Race. Even if I want to remove them completely, I can't do it now."
Xiu was very calm as he spoke, but Shen Yanxiao’s heart could not calm down at all.
Even though he said he could not do it now, didn’t that mean that after he recovered his strength, he could do it then?
Shen Yanxiao stared at the handsome face of Xiu, her eyes full of doubts.
Xiu turned his head to look at the little girl who was staring intently at him.
"You don't want to watch the night sky?" Why else would she stare at him?
"Uh..." Shen Yanxiao slightly froze, then her little face produced a trace of a blush. She immediately lifted her head and carefully stared at the bright moon in the night sky.
Look at the moon, look at the moon!
Xiu narrowed his eyes and said nothing, after which he quietly looked up at the night sky as well.
Shen Yanxiao hadn't seen the moonlight for a long time. She looked a little fascinated, watching the moonlight as it sprinkled and printed her long shadow on the ground. She hooked her lips up and hopped on the empty street.
At this moment, Shen Yanxiao was more like her age.
She was like a real little girl: lively, hearty, had a cozy laughter, and playful.
Xiu, with his hands behind his back, followed behind Shen Yanxiao. Looking at the energetic figure in front of him, the chill in his eyes quietly turned into gentle spring water.
With a snap of his finger, Xiu turned the light-congealing crystals on the entire street off. Inside the city surrounded by darkness, only the light from the moon touched the ground, illuminating the road ahead of Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao ran until the end of the street and then turned to look at Xiu, who was not far away.
In the middle of the night, he was dressed in pure white as he slowly stepped through the moonlight, just like a G.o.d coming out of the moon, making people unable to turn their eyes away.
"If the G.o.d Race had not been annihilated, they would probably be just like Xiu." Shen Yanxiao whispered in a voice only she could hear.
The admiration people held towards the G.o.d Race had led them to use all the resplendent and honorable words to describe the G.o.ds. Shen Yanxiao always felt that it was very false and very lacking, but somehow, she suddenly felt that those beautiful words were unexpectedly very appropriate to use for the person before her.
Elegant, beautiful, n.o.ble, sacred...
If Shen Yanxiao were a poet, she would be happy to use all the beautiful words of the world to describe Xiu, because no one was more suitable for such words than him.
"What are you thinking?" Xiu slowly arrived in front of Shen Yanxiao. He looked down at the girl in a trance.
Xiu’s tall figure stood in front of Shen Yanxiao, blocking the moonlight as his shadow covered her.
