Chapter 73 – A pair of Jade Annulus (3)

　　Both the Phoenix and Dragon race had almost all but disappeared on this continent. Who would have thought that their silhouettes would actually simultaneously appear today?

　　The so-called dragon that Su Luo had to kill was only an Armored Back Dragon. That kind of dragon and this divine dragon of legend were fundamentally two different concepts.

　　The appearance of the Phoenix and Divine Dragon excited everyone greatly, but their current situation was extremely unfavorable.

　　This was because the bloody battle being carried out by the two divine beasts was causing trouble for the magical beasts in the Sunset Mountain Range below them.

　　At this moment, almost all the magical beasts were wildly dashing outwards in order to avoid any troublesome accidental encounter and attempting to keep away from the two divine beasts locked in battle.

　　Currently, there were countless number of magical beasts violently charged towards them at full speed like the tide. It was aggressive and impossible to block.

　　“This situation isn’t good.” Nangong Liuyun’s tempting purple eyes held a dense coldness.

　　“Indeed, a wave of magical beasts is coming.” Jade Lake’s holy maiden answered indifferently.

　　“A wave of magical beasts!” The expressions on each and every other person’s had changed greatly, and their eyes were filled with terror.

　　Even though they had never experienced a magical beast stampede, they had already been warned by their teachers about how terrifying it was.

　　Whenever a magical beast wave appeared, martial artists at the scene would almost always barely escape, but at the same time, this fortuitous encounter was an occurrence that happened once in a century.

　　Because whenever a magical beast wave happened, a peerless treasure would always inevitably appear.

　　It was extremely possible that what those two almost-extinct divine beasts were fighting over, was a heavenly treasure.

　　“At the center of the forest…” The Jade Lake’s holy maiden’s beautiful eyes were indifferent as she suddenly turned her head. She wished to continue talking, but then stopped. She tilted her head as her beautiful eyes exchanged meaningful looks with Nangong Liuyun.

　　Nangong Liuyun’s charming eyes looked at Su Luo, and the bright radiance in the depths of his eyes dimmed for a split second.

　　Every time a magical beast wave occurred, although it was dangerous, it was still a rare, hard to come by opportunity.

　　If it was in the past, he would naturally go onwards and explore. However, the one next to him was Su Luo who had no spiritual power. He could guarantee his own safety if he had to withdraw, but he could not say that she would certainly come out unscathed.

　　Su Luo had on a completely carefree expression. With her clear eyes that could vividly see everything, she casually glanced at him. “You can go, don’t worry about me.”

　　After saying that, a trace of loneliness suddenly flashed through her heart.

　　Even though Liu Ruohua was hateful, what she had said was right. With her current strength, she didn’t even have the qualification to stand by his side.

　　He and the Jade Lake’s holy maiden were the ones in their own world. Their strengths were appropriately equivalent and their identities were compatible. And she, seemed to be an disregarded tiny insignificant existence that could only look up towards them from an extremely low point of view in their presence.

　　This kind of feeling was extremely unpleasant.

　　A trace of sympathy flashed through Nangong Liuyun’s clear and intelligent eyes. He rubbed her little head. “How can I not care about you. What nonsense.”

　　After finished speaking, he turned his head and smiled towards the Jade Lake’s holy maiden. “Be careful. No matter what, a mere treasure is not as important as your life.”

　　He said it in a warm and gentle tone of voice, completely unlike the ice-cold cruel way he uses with others.

　　“Thank you for the warning.” Jade Lake’s holy maiden’s pure eyes were touching and her faint laugh was like a cool breeze gently passing by; without any startling ripples or extremely varying emotions.

　　As light as water, her gaze gently landed on Su Luo’s face, yet a terrifying piercing cold feeling suddenly went down Su Luo’s back?

　　Is this woman…really as she’s portrayed herself: like lifeless water? Without sorrow or joy, and free from mortal vulgarity?

　　A hint of suspicion flashed through the depths of Su Luo’s heart as her heart sensed a sort of bad premonition.

　　Su Luo did not dare to say that her sixth sense was infallible, but it had never been wrong for all these years.
