School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 914: Chapter 994: A Ray of Hope

Forging weapons on the battlefield; this method left Chen Nan dumbfounded.

However, what surprised him even more was the tone of the red-clothed woman when she spoke in anger, as if she had been bullied many times by Xuan Tianji.

Facing an attack from weapons forged of the Vermilion Bird Feather Fan and the Giant Mountain, Xuan Tianji was very calm. He shook both hands, sealing all directions with invisible power. Suddenly, with a ”crack,” the weapon forged from the Giant Mountain shattered, and the Vermilion Bird Feather Fan was struck, flying backwards and counterattacking the red-clothed woman.

The red-clothed woman shook with divine power, and the feather fan swirled around her body, protecting her. Then, with a wave of her hands, two distant mountains rose simultaneously, instantly being forged into weapons, bombarding Xuan Tianji.

”Break!”

Xuan Tianji’s voice rolled like thunder, shattering one of the giant mountain weapons.

Then he waved his massive hands repeatedly, and three gigantic light palms formed in succession, striking toward the red-clothed woman.

”Boom!”

The Vermilion Bird Feather Fan was knocked flying.

The second light palm followed, breaking through the red-clothed woman’s protective divine power, and the third light palm slammed onto her, sending her flying thousands of meters away, spitting a large mouthful of blood.

However, for experts of their level,

even if their bodies suffer severe injuries, they can recover instantly.

”You damned old thing!”

The red-clothed woman’s hair was wild, her whole body in disarray, and she flew back almost frantically, shouting at Xuan Tianji.

Seeing the two pause in their fight, the Monk with the name Jie Se stepped forward and said: ”We’re all on the same side, why are you doing this? Let’s drop it for today and go home, wash up, and sleep.”

”Sleep your sister!”

The red-clothed woman cursed angrily, glaring at Jie Se monk: ”Shameless bald donkey!”

”Alright, alright, you guys continue fighting, I’ll just watch from the sidelines.” The Jie Se monk leapt backward and retreated.

Xuan Tianji glanced at the red-clothed woman: ”Stinky woman, if you haven’t had enough, how about a few more moves?”

The red-clothed woman snorted coldly, turned into a red light, and vanished without a trace.

The entire forest, within a radius of ten miles, was completely destroyed.

Xuan Tianji landed on the ground, looking at Chen Nan, he said: ”You little brat, didn’t I tell you to stay away from her!”

”As long as she can save my sworn sister, I won’t care about anything else!”

Chen Nan said, looking down; the ground was already a patch of yellow earth, the whole forest turned upside down, and there was no trace of Shi’er’s body.

”Don’t worry, that little fox’s body wasn’t destroyed.”

Jie Se monk said, waving his hand, opening an independent space, letting Shi’er’s body fall back onto the ground, lying quietly, unaffected by the chaos earlier.

Chen Nan looked at Xuan Tianji, frowned and said: ”She is helping me save someone, why do you still want to stop her!?”

”You little brat, what do you know? This is a conspiracy.” Xuan Tianji scolded irritably, then after a silent pause, continued: ”Remember this, there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Haven’t you thought about why she is doing her utmost to help you?”

Chen Nan indifferently said: ”Her cultivation is so high, killing me would be as easy as lifting a hand, why would she need to use a conspiracy against me?”

”If she simply wanted to kill you, she wouldn’t need a plot. But her purpose is just to calculate against you.” Xuan Tianji said.

Chen Nan asked: ”What do you mean?”

Xuan Tianji was silent for a while, then shook his head and said: ”Do you really think there is a hell in this world? There’s no such thing, everything she said is to deceive you.”

”Why would she want to deceive me?”

Chen Nan thought the old man wouldn’t lie to him, but he really couldn’t understand why he was worth such elaborate scheming by the red-clothed woman with his limited power.

”Although there is no hell, apart from the Mortal World, other worlds do exist. She lends you her power, wanting you to have the ability to shatter the void and enter another world; but once you enter that world, you can never come back.” Xuan Tianji said.

Chen Nan said: ”But she must have a reason for scheming against me in this way, right?”

Xuan Tianji hesitated for a while, then sighed and explained: ”At this point, I have to tell you. Actually, she has been trying to resurrect someone—the Immortal Spirit Saintess, her sister. And your existence is the biggest obstacle to her successfully resurrecting the Immortal Spirit Saintess.”

”What does resurrecting the Immortal Spirit Saintess have to do with me, why would I obstruct her?”

”Because resurrecting the Saintess would harm Su Qingqing, so you would undoubtedly stop her.”

Chen Nan asked: ”Then why doesn’t she just kill me directly, instead of designing to trap me in another world?”

”She can’t kill you.”

Xuan Tianji glanced at him and said: ”This is as much as I can tell you.”

The old man didn’t speak, and Chen Nan was too lazy to ask further.

Between the red-clothed woman and the old man, he would prefer to trust the old man more, as he is his master after all.

Gently touching Shi’er’s cheek, Chen Nan looked at Xuan Tianji and asked: ”Since there’s no hell, where did her soul go? Could it really be scattered, vanished between heaven and earth?”

”That’s hard to say!”

Xuan Tianji explained: ”Once the soul leaves the body for a day, not even the Soul Summoning Technique can bring it back.”

”Is there no hope for her?”

Chen Nan’s emotions, which had just calmed down, once again turned agitated.

Xuan Tianji shook his head, then nodded, sighed and said: ”That depends on her fortune. If she’s lucky, there’s a slim chance of survival. But, given her level of cultivation, the possibility of becoming one with the clouds and smoke is greater.”

Chen Nan hurriedly asked: ”Isn’t there anything you can do to save her?”

”I’ll do my best!”

Xuan Tianji glanced at Shi’er on the ground and said: ”Later, I’ll take her body back and set up a Soul Summoning Formation for her. Although the hope is slim, it’s not entirely hopeless.”

”What are the odds?” Chen Nan asked.

Xuan Tianji was silent for a while and said: ”One percent. But if we capture that fox demon who seized her body, there’s a fifty percent chance.”

”Then I’ll go find that old demon witch now!” Chen Nan clenched his fists and said.

”You should go back to school and stay near Su Qingqing as much as possible, as for the fox demon, I’ll find time to look for it on your behalf.” Xuan Tianji waved his hand and said: ”The fox demon is very well-hidden, I may not even be able to find it, you definitely won’t.”

Chen Nan looked at Shi’er’s pale cheek and said: ”Does she really have hope? I haven’t studied much, old man, don’t lie to me.”

”Damn you, nonsense, get lost!”

Xuan Tianji waved his sleeve, sweeping Chen Nan over ten meters away, then grabbed Shi’er’s clothes, in a flash, and disappeared into the distance with the Jie Se monk.
