Chapter 140: The Moon Has Risen (Part II)
The heavy snow in winter has suppressed all the sounds.
Dots of light spread across the street, reflecting a warm yellow and half of the signboard, and the closed doors and windows showed the meaning of the shop. On such days, most people are at home, drinking tea or drinking wine on the red stove, and no one wants to run outside.
The carriage crushed through the thick snow and creaked slightly, not disturbing the dreams of others.
"Young master, how many days have we been out, how do I feel like a year has passed?" Hu Ran said weakly, she hadn't eaten for too long, and her body was extremely tired, so she really had no strength.
"It's been half a month. β
"Has it been so long?" Hu Ran looked drowsy with his eyes half-open.
"Hmm. Ning Du didn't expect that he would leave Tiandu for so long, and more than half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. If he hadn't let the news come from Yulong Street during this period, others would definitely think that he and Hu Ran had disappeared.
"I'm so hungry, so sleepy, so tired......" Hu Ran weakly told his needs, and finally couldn't hold on, lying on Ning Du's knees, and immediately fell asleep.
"Sleep, sleep. Ning Du touched Hu Ran's head, not wanting him to have such an experience again. Such a toss, Ning Du may be able to bear it, but Hu Ran may not have such a strong will and body, which is far from what Hu Ran should bear.
"Thankfully, I didn't stay any longer. Ning Du has a lot of thoughts about staying any longer, there is no better way for him to improve than fighting with Wang Daoye, he can easily feel that he is getting closer to Wang Dao little by little, but every time it is a little bit worse, so he must ask himself to go a little further. In this world, it is difficult to find a "sparring partner" who is better than Wang Dao, Shang Chonggu's is of course Ning Du's goal, but that goal is too lofty to reach in a short period of time; Chen Nanping's is always half the winner, and each other just stays in place. Only Wang Daoye, who is obviously higher than Ning Du's head, so that Ning Du can clearly see the goal and hope, is the best. Of course, for Wang Daoye, Ning Du is also the best opponent, he feels unprecedented pressure, that is the pressure of stopping in place today and losing tomorrow, he must continue to move forward and break through himself.
"When can I go to the mountain again?" Ning Du looked down at Hu Ran, knowing that he would never take her with him next time, and even if he took her there, he had to settle her down, but he couldn't let her immerse herself in the world of veins anymore.
Hu Ran slept very deeply, and her body really needed to rest. She didn't know how many times the vitality on her body condensed and dispersed when she was immersed in the world of the veins, it was no less than the fatigue of running hundreds of miles with weights, and she had been in this state for half a month, she was just an ordinary person, but she didn't have a body like Ning Du that could never be wiped out, she needed to rest so much, and even needed to be sent to Bian Shihan to recuperate.
"Don't rush, take your time. Ning Du knew that he and Hu Ran still had a long way to go, and they must not be in a hurry, everything had to come step by step, and there was still a long time left for them.
"Young master, I'm home. The old gun whispered outside the carriage.
Ning Du slowly picked up Hu Ran, got out of the carriage, and carried him to the house to settle down.
No matter when Ning Du and Hu Ran come back, the old gun will take care of this place, so that Ning Du can rest as soon as he comes back, and he doesn't have to worry about trivial matters.
"What's going on lately?" asked Ning Du. The old gun outside the door said, "It's safe." β
"It's cold, add more clothes. Ning Du said calmly.
"Yes. The old gun knew that there was nothing to do with him, so he retreated out of the courtyard.
Ning Du didn't fall asleep like Hu Ran, he didn't feel too sleepy, and after looking at Hu Ran for a while, he walked out of the house alone and paced slowly in the courtyard.
The courtyard was covered with snow, like paved rice paper, and there was a faint dark shadow of a walled house.
"The last sword, he is still fast. Ning Du thought of the last battle, and instead of being unwilling to regret it, he was in an extraordinarily calm mood.
In the chaotic mountains, when a bright moon shone on Ning Du's body, the hidden spring breeze sword moved!
Compared to the powerful Cihua Sword, the Spring Breeze Sword is indeed not strong enough, it is fragile and unspeakable. If the Spring Breeze Sword is in the hands of ordinary people, then it is just a simple carved wooden sword, even in the hands of most cultivators, it does not have much power, after all, it itself is carved out of peach wood, and it only has the characteristic of being slightly faster.
However, Ning Du's sword only has the characteristic of being fast!
Wang Dao has also fought with Ning Du for so long, he already knows Ning Du's methods well, but he has never seen Ning Du holding the Spring Breeze Sword, he has never seen the Spring Breeze Sword.
The Spring Breeze Sword is like a trace of wind, silently melting into the heavens and the earth, and when people perceive it, it is already close in front of them.
It's not a spring breeze, it's just a spring breeze.
From the very beginning, Wang Dao also judged Ning Du's intentions, and he had been on guard against Ning Du's sword all along. But he didn't expect the Spring Breeze Sword to be so fast, it had completely exceeded his expectations, even if he recalled the sword in his hand at this time, it would be impossible to block Ning Du's sword, and any other way to deal with it was slower than the sword.
Ning Du raised his head and looked at the sky, and the clouds that covered the bright moon were drifting away, revealing a bright white moonlight, just like the sword of Wang Daoye on the chaotic mountain.
"Your sword is still stronger than mine!"
The "Zhao Long Night" that Wang Dao also performed almost killed the powerhouse of the half-step Heavenly Mandate Five Realms, and it was impossible for Ning Du to resist any kind of move, and no matter how fast his sword was, he couldn't stop his death. When the moonlight shone in front of him, Ning Du once again clearly perceived what it meant to "see the mountain".
Seeing the mountains is difficult to do!
Wang Dao's significance to Ning Du is not only to make him stronger, but also to make him understand how to "make it difficult", and also to give him the state of mind to climb from the trough to the top of the mountain.
At the same time that Ning Du saw Mingyue, Wang Dao also saw the Spring Breeze Sword.
A sword as weak as the wind flew in front of him as it melted into heaven and earth.
Fast, too fast to react!
Flying flowers without a shadow!
This was the first time that Wang Dao had seen a peer of his age who could cast such a fast sword, even faster than his sword.
"This is Shang Chonggu's sword?!" This is the conclusion that suddenly popped up in Wang Daoye's heart, and this is also the reason why he finally understands how fast the strongest sword of the sword is.
Snort β
The spring breeze gently swept across Wang Daoye's neck, leaving a gentle coolness.
The moonlight in front of Ning Du's eyes also slowly dissipated.
"That'sβFlying Flowers?"
"This is the Flying Flowers. β
"Got it. Wang Daoye's posture was finally no longer as arrogant as at the beginning, because Ning Du at this time already had the capital to stand at the same height as him.
Ning Du smiled, but he couldn't stop the blood red that suddenly oozes from his whole body. The Kunlun Snow Silk grew rapidly, wrapped Ning Du into a silkworm chrysalis, sucked all the blood back, and then showed a strange bright red. After the wounds on Ning Du's body healed, Kunlun Xue Xuan quickly retracted, making Ning Du look as if he had not suffered any injuries.
"Are you alright?" Wang Dao was also a little annoyed by the reaction just now. At the moment when he perceived the Spring Breeze Sword, he subconsciously and completely cast "Zhao Long Night". In the face of a crisis, he must have the heart to kill Ning Du. And he knew the power of this move very well, even if he turned his sword, he would inevitably hit Ning Du in the end.
However, Ning Du did not hold any grudge against Wang Dao, because only Wang Dao, who had the intention of killing himself, put himself in the position of an equal opponent.
"It's fine. Ning Du said with a smile. No matter what kind of injury, it is just a matter of the length of time for him to recuperate.
Wang Dao didn't think about whether Ning Du was okay or not, because he believed what Ning Du said, but he was also amazed in his heart by Ning Du's terrifying ability to withstand such a terror.
"He's already so strong just because of the difficult realm, I don't know how strong he will be in the same realm as me!"
Wang Dao also touched the blue and red marks on his neck, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"I hope that one day I will see not Shang Chonggu's sword, but your sword!"
Originally, the Spring Breeze Sword was indeed aimed at Wang Daoye's neck, but Wang Dao also forcibly reversed the trajectory of the Spring Breeze Sword with terrifying strength, thus dodging this fatal blow.
Even if Ning Du had been in the realm of the Water Stopping Cave Concept, he hadn't seen clearly how the royal road had changed the Spring Breeze Sword, and he couldn't figure out what was going on. But he won't ask, he just needs to try again. It's just that he didn't expect that he had to leave the mountain for a while.
Ning Du looked at the bright moon in the sky.
"Next time, I'll show you my sword!"
ββ
"These three ancestors are gone!" the soldiers in the watchtower happily ate around the copper pot of mutton, and they even drank wine behind their backs.
"The days of fear are finally over! I don't even feel this way when I walk into the chaotic mountains!"
"It was so dark during those days!"
"Don't mention it, don't mention it!"
"In order to send away the three ancestors, do it!"
"!" the soldiers raised their bowls together and threw themselves on their backs.
The commander was pouring incense reverently, and thanks to the blessing of the gods and Buddhas, there was no major mess in the past few days. Everyone sometimes thinks that the leader is superstitious, but he knows better than anyone the reason why the big man who guarded the mountain did not make a move, and it was the consumption of the three ancestors for so many days that made the big man not care about the "reorganization" that happened in the mountain this time.
"God bless, these three living ancestors will not come again, God bless, God bless......"
The people in the barracks thought that Ning Du and the three of them had left the chaotic mountain, but in fact, Wang Dao did not leave immediately, he stood on the top of the highest mountain, looking at the direction of Tiandu, and felt a slight sense of loss in his heart, but a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Next time, you still won't be able to win against me. β
