107: Chapter 107 I refuse to believe that there are truly innocent men in this world!
"Crack!" "Bang!" The red silk ribbon collided with the Mystic Ice Sword Qi, yet remained completely unscathed!
Accompanied by a gust of fragrant wind, the red silk ribbon still had strength to spare, charging straight at Chen Yan!
Chen Yan furrowed his brows slightly, secretly surprised in his heart at the strength of this enchantress!
He knew his own limits well! Although he was only at the Early Golden Core Stage, he had cultivated the Sword Heart Tempering Method, coupled with the augmentation of his Stainless Golden Core.
He could go head-to-head with an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator. Yet, he hadn't expected to be at a disadvantage against this enchantress's attack!
Chen Yan tapped his foot.
On these steps less than a zhang wide, he pushed his Cloud-Chasing Moon-Treading movement technique to the limit!
By a hair's breadth, he dodged the red silk ribbon's attack!
Feeling the terrifying spiritual power contained within it, he finally understood.
Those who could make it into the top 50 of the hidden dragon ranking were no ordinary people!
"Hehe~ Young Master, why are you dodging?"
Seemingly seeing that Chen Yan was no match for her, Saintess Su Wanrou's voice returned to its coquettish tone.
Looking at Chen Yan with poised anticipation, she moved her hand in a spell gesture, and the red silk ribbon coiled toward Chen Yan once again!
"Swish!"
The red silk ribbon tore through the air, the fragrant wind assaulting his nose. Chen Yan dodged to the side again, secretly furious in his heart.
Damn it, it's too fast!
This enchantress's attack was very bizarre; he couldn't grasp her pattern at all.
A cold light flashed in his eyes. He raised the Flying Sword in his hand and slashed directly at the incoming red silk ribbon!
"Ding! Zzzzt!"
The Flying Sword collided with the red silk ribbon, emitting the sound of clashing metal!
Sparks flew everywhere, and the Flying Sword was knocked away directly!
Yet, the red silk ribbon was completely unharmed.
Chen Yan couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.
Damn it!
It was actually an Earth Rank Magic Treasure!
Refusing to give up, he changed his hand spell gesture. The Flying Sword instantly shifted its angle and slashed down fiercely again.
"Clang!"
A shrill metallic sound rang out!
His Flying Sword was left vibrating and humming, yet there wasn't even a mark on that red silk ribbon!
"Young Master~ your sword doesn't seem to be up to the task~"
Saintess Su Wanrou looked at him, giggling. That expression—it didn't seem like she was talking about the sword?
"Damn!"
Chen Yan cursed inwardly.
His Flying Sword was only Profound Rank; it couldn't do anything to her!
He looked at Saintess Su Wanrou, whose ample chest was heaving, his eyes narrowing slightly as he pondered a countermeasure!
But Saintess Su Wanrou wouldn't give him that chance!
"Young Master, be careful now~"
She coquettishly exclaimed, and with a tap of her spell gesture, the red silk ribbon split into two!
From left and right, they charged toward him!
Chen Yan's expression changed. He raised his hand and shouted: "wait a moment!"
Saintess Su Wanrou giggled: "Young Master, isn't it a bit late to beg for mercy now?"
Even though she said that, those two red silk ribbons showed absolutely no signs of stopping!
"Whoosh!"
A flash of red instantly flew out!
It aimed straight for Saintess Su Wanrou's head and slammed down!
"Hum!"
Just as Chen Yan was secretly rejoicing!
He saw that the brick was actually a foot away from Saintess Su Wanrou, not touching her at all!
A red barrier emanated from a red jade pendant on Saintess Su Wanrou's chest!
Chen Yan was speechless!
Another damn Earth Rank Magic Treasure!
Just how many treasures did this woman carry on her?
The Flying Sword was countered by the red silk ribbon, and now the brick was countered by her protective jade pendant!
If he couldn't hit her, no matter how awesome the brick's mechanism was, it couldn't be brought into play!
Looking at the brick less than a foot from her head, Saintess Su Wanrou felt a wave of lingering fear!
When did this brick appear?
She hadn't even known!
"Young Master certainly has quite a few tricks up his sleeve!"
She turned to look at Chen Yan, smiling playfully: "If it weren't for the fact that my Revered Master specially gave me a protective Magic Treasure before I came down the mountain this time!"
"Today, I might have really been successfully ambushed by you!"
"But it's a pity; in the face of absolute strength, these little tricks of yours, Young Master, will be of no use!"
Having said that, she gave a light shout, and her Aura surged violently!
The pressure of the Late Golden Core Stage bore down on Chen Yan like an overwhelming tide.
"Thousand Illusory Phantoms!"
Saintess Su Wanrou's hands moved rapidly to form spell gestures, and the red silk ribbon on her body exploded with a boom!
It transformed into myriad red flying shadows, pouncing on Chen Yan from all directions!
They looked like phantoms, but each shadow revealed terrifying force!
"Damn it! Forcing me to get serious!"
Seeing that these minor tricks were useless, Chen Yan no longer held back!
He pressed his fingers together to form a sword shape and wiped them across the spine of his Flying Sword!
"Heaven-Burning Sword Art — Sun Shining on the Nine Heavens!"
The Purple Sun Fire within his body instantly attached itself to the Flying Sword!
The sword drew down celestial light, like the great sun descending into the sky!
The Crimson Flame Sword Intent, carrying the scorching heat of the Purple Sun Fire that could incinerate everything, suppressed everything with its magnificent sword momentum!
"Whoosh!"
Saintess Su Wanrou's myriad red shadows pounced before him in the blink of an eye!
Chen Yan flicked his wrist, and the Flying Sword slashed down with force!
A purple-red sword light soared into the sky, carving out a deadly arc!
"Pfft!"
The moment all the red shadows touched the sword light, it was like snow meeting the sun; they were evaporated completely!
"Ah!"
Saintess Su Wanrou was completely stunned.
How could her attack be scattered by a single sword strike from Chen Yan?
Seeing purple-red flames igniting on the red silk ribbon, she hurriedly retracted the red silk ribbon in distress!
But just as she lowered her head!
Hum!
A sword light flashed by.
Saintess Su Wanrou only felt darkness before her eyes, her heart trembling!
A fierce Sword Qi was already resting horizontally against her neck!
"Get lost!"
Chen Yan's expression was indifferent, his voice devoid of any warmth!
"Otherwise, my next sword strike will behead you!"
Saintess Su Wanrou froze instantly.
The scorching heat on the sword's edge and the unmasked Killing Intent on Chen Yan's body left her unable to move.
She understood that this man truly wanted to kill her!
"Young Master, what a cruel heart you have~"
She forced a smile: "I was just joking with you, Young Master; why get so angry?"
"A joke?"
Chen Yan sneered, pressing the Flying Sword forward to force Saintess Su Wanrou to the side: "Who the hell has the mind to joke with you?"
"Are we even that familiar with each other?"
Saintess Su Wanrou was choked, unable to speak.
This matter was indeed her fault to begin with.
When she saw Chen Yan, thinking that he had easily risen to 40th on the hidden dragon ranking while she had been walking the continent for two years and was only in the 40s!
Forcing Chen Yan to fight her was, firstly, because of her own resentment; and secondly, she really wanted to know Chen Yan's true strength!
But who would have thought that she would be taken down by him in one sword strike!
It was truly embarrassing!
At this moment, facing Chen Yan, Saintess Su Wanrou could tell from his eyes.
This man really had no desire for her at all!
How was this possible?
She was a Prodigy of the Hehuan Sect, and the Cultivation Technique she practiced made her charm incomparable!
Countless men had their legs turn to jelly upon seeing her.
Yet, the one before her...
A strange thought suddenly surged in Saintess Su Wanrou's heart.
Being ignored like this by a man, it was really a bit... unwilling!
However, he was really so special!
The key was, he didn't look bad either~
[Favorability +12!]
[Current target favorability: 70/100!]
Chen Yan: "???"
No way?
System, are you toxic?
Who wanted this enchantress's favorability!
No, no!
Wasn't favorability supposed to be exclusive to Revered Master?
Why did she have it too?
[The favorability module is effective for all members of the opposite sex! It only provides the favorability value and does not have any romance tasks! Please rest assured, Host!]
Chen Yan: "..."
Immediately, he didn't bother with this favorability, flicked his long sword to push Saintess Su Wanrou aside, and ran off!
He had already been delayed by this enchantress for so long; finding Revered Master was more important!
"Ah~ Young Master! Are you really so heartless?"
Saintess Su Wanrou watched Chen Yan leave without even looking back, and that strange feeling in her heart grew even stronger!
"I've grown up this big and have never been cold-shouldered by a man like this~ Hmph!"
She stood on the steps, staring in the direction Chen Yan had left, her eyes shifting uncertainly.
"Interesting~"
She suddenly whispered to herself: "I refuse to believe it; is there really a pure-hearted man in this world?"
Saying this, she actually used her movement technique and followed closely after Chen Yan's figure!
