“Roar!”
Sensing danger, the Emerald Blood Leopard exerted strength in its limbs and burst forth with blood qi before Nangong Yu gave the order to dodge to the side.
As an ancient remnant beast, the Emerald Blood Leopard relied on speed the most!
However, although it was fast, Beiming Xue was even faster!
Swoosh!
Beiming Xue’s blood qi spread as well.
In fact, she did not even circulate her blood qi to its limits. With a slight circulation, she released a shocking power and caught up to the Emerald Blood Leopard in the blink of an eye!
Beiming Xue stood in front of the Emerald Blood Leopard. She looked extremely skinny and was not even as tall as its limbs.
However, the Emerald Blood Leopard felt a ferocious aura surge towards it, as though it was not facing a human girl, but a pure-blooded ferocious beast!
The Emerald Blood Leopard opened its mouth and bared its menacing fangs. They shone with a cold glint and chomped down viciously at Beiming Xue!
Beiming Xue’s expression was unchanged as she reached out and grabbed the neck of the Emerald Blood Leopard before it could close its mouth!
Remnant ferocious beasts like this had the strongest bite strength.
However, even with its full strength, the Emerald Blood Leopard could not bite down.
On the contrary, its mouth was opening wider and wider with Beiming Xue’s tug!
“Oo, Oo!”
The Emerald Blood Leopard had a pained expression. Its initial ferocity had long vanished as it let out a pleading sound from the depths of its throat.
“B*tch, how dare you!”
Nangong Yu was enraged and slapped his storage bag, summoning a flying sword and injecting spirit energy into it.
The sword shone with four spirit lights and shone brightly!
It was a supreme-grade spirit weapon!
As a collateral lineage descendant of the Nangong aristocratic family, it was already rare for him to possess a supreme-grade spirit weapon.
The moment Nangong Yu summoned his flying sword, Beiming Xue exerted strength in both arms.
Shing!
Blood splattered through the void!
The Golden Core ancient remnant beast, the Emerald Blood Leopard, was torn into two by Beiming Xue barehanded!
Boom!
The corpse of the Emerald Blood Leopard fell to the ground, creating billowing dust. It was already dead, leaving only its massive body twitching unconsciously.
Nangong Yu had not expected this and almost flipped over and fell!
He had not imagined that Beiming Xue, a person whose Golden Core was crippled, would be so strong that she could rip an ancient remnant beast into two!
Even some paragons and monster incarnates of super sects in the cultivation world that specialized in body tempering were probably merely at this level?
“Go!”
Nangong Yu hollered and tapped his finger gently.
Swash!
A sword beam flashed and the supreme-grade flying sword arrived before Beiming Xue instantly. It was sharp and frighteningly fast!
Beiming Xue did not move or even dodge.
Nangong Yu’s eyes lit up.
As long as the supreme-grade flying sword struck Beiming Xue, he believed that she would die even if she had ten lives!
All of a sudden!
Just as the flying sword was less than three inches away from Beiming Xue’s cheek, she suddenly attacked.
Without any unnecessary movements, she merely extended her fair and tender palm and grabbed the supreme-grade flying sword!
When he saw that, Nangong Yu could not help but burst into laughter. “Haha, you’re truly asking for trouble. A supreme-grade flying sword is not something that a body of flesh and blood can defend against. Furthermore, you’re only a cripple…”
Suddenly, he could not continue.
To his horror, he realized that he had completely lost control of that supreme-grade flying sword!
The spirit energy on the sword was dispersed by Beiming Xue!
What was even more terrifying was that Beiming Xue gripped the sharp blade of the sword barehanded. However, no blood flowed out from her palm!
What was that?
She received a supreme-grade spirit weapon barehanded but was completely unharmed?
What the hell?
Blood drained from Nangong Yu’s face as he looked at Beiming Xue with a bewildered expression.
Suddenly, he realized that he could no longer read her.
He no longer knew what sort of an existence he was facing!
In fact, a thought flashed through his mind.
Was Beiming Xue assimilated by some powerful cultivator?!
Right then, he swept his gaze and inadvertently caught sight of the green-robed man standing at the entrance of the house not far away. His heart skipped a beat.
Could Beiming Xue’s change have something to do with this man?
If he was not wrong, that person was here a year and a half ago and had not left yet!
However, Nangong Yu could not tell the depths of the green-robed man.
To him, this green-robed man was sickly and skinny. The latter looked like a down-and-out scholar that was of no threat at all.
Snap!
Just as Nangong Yu’s imagination was running wild, he heard a crisp sound and his heart skipped a beat.
Instinctively, he looked over and was scared out of his wits!
His supreme-grade flying sword was snapped in the middle by Beiming Xue’s hands!
What sort of power was that?!
Beiming Xue looked at Nangong Yu expressionlessly. She threw the broken sword on the ground and strode over.
Nangong Yu retreated instinctively with a horrified expression.
“W-What are you doing?!”
Nangong Yu’s voice was trembling and he was flustered.
“I gave you a chance,”
Beiming Xue replied indifferently.
At that moment, Nangong Yu recalled what Beiming Xue said to him earlier on. However, he scoffed at it and did not take it to heart at that time.
“Xue’er, I…”
He wanted to speak.
Beiming Xue frowned in displeasure.
Nangong Yu’s heart skipped a beat and he changed his words hurriedly. “Fellow Daoist Beiming, I know my mistake now. As long as you let me live, I won’t disturb you anymore in the future.”
Beiming Xue remained silent and glared at Nangong Yu coldly.
Nangong Yu took a deep breath and gradually composed himself. “Fellow Daoist Beiming, killing me won’t benefit you at all.”
“Although I’m only a collateral lineage of the Nangong aristocratic family, don’t forget, my father is a Nascent Soul. He is extremely close with many direct descendants of the Nangong aristocratic family!”
“If I die, you won’t survive either! As for your younger brother, he will definitely be implicated as well!”
Beiming Xue lowered her gaze.
Nangong Yu’s words struck her weakness.
If she was alone, she could just kill Nangong Yu and take revenge as she wished.
However, she still had Beiming Ao.
“Nangong Yu, leave,”
A long time later, Beiming Xue said slowly, “I hope you can fulfill your promise and not come look for me again. I can tell you that the Beiming clan has no secrets and you don’t have to waste your time on me.”
Nangong Yu heaved a sigh of relief and unknowingly broke out in cold sweat.
Earlier on, his life was truly hanging by a thread!
“Farewell!”
He did not dare to linger any longer and turned to leave hurriedly, afraid that Beiming Xue might change her mind.
Su Zimo stood at the side. He did not say anything the entire time nor did he have any intentions of stepping in.
He could not help but recall that night when he had no choice but to let Zhou Dingyun off.
Similar to him, Beiming Xue had her difficulties.
