Faced with Lu Songping's question, Xiao Nanhui had no intention of answering it at all.
Who would bother chatting with someone before such an obviously malicious confrontation? What a joke!
She took a deep breath, and without looking back, she rushed towards the disheveled Deputy Manager Lan.
The unlucky guy named Lan was terrified, thinking that the other party was going to take him down with him before he died, so he quickly dodged to the side. However, the anklet was heavy, so he could only move a little bit on the spot.
The next second, a gust of wind brushed past him, and after a loud bang, a hole appeared in the floor beside him. The wooden board that was originally used to open and close when passing food was now kicked off by someone.
Xiao Nanhui crawled out from the bottom of Shuxin Pavilion and tried to use the moonlight to determine the direction. However, Lu Songping had no intention of giving her this chance at all and attacked her almost immediately.
Xiao Nan turned around and kicked a piece of wood away, using all his strength in his legs.
A needle-like silver light flashed, and the wooden board silently broke into two pieces and fell to the ground. She looked up and saw a sharp edge rushing straight into her eyes.
As fast as flowing light, with a sound of breaking through the air.
Xiao Nanhui did not dare to delay, but he had nowhere to retreat, so he used all his strength to twist his shoulders and neck.
A chill brushed across her jaw, ears, and hair.
She saw clearly that it was a long and narrow sword. It was not as upright as a gentleman's, but rather had a bit of femininity, which complemented its owner.
This reminded Xiao Nan of an ancient legend from Lingdong: it was said that when the gods came to the world, they enlightened several creatures, including snakes.
The sword in Shika Songping's hand looks like a snake.
A silver snake that has become a spirit.
It missed its attack and quickly retreated, changing its direction when it swam out again.
Xiao Nanhui had no intention of fighting and was only thinking about escaping. He only defended and did not attack. He threw everything he could pick up at the opponent and tried to keep some distance when he saw an opportunity.
The silver snake seemed to be annoyed. It suddenly bent, and the sword tip turned into an incredible angle, biting Xiao Nanhui fiercely.
Such a narrow sword is actually a soft sword.
Xiao Nanhui cursed inwardly, feeling that he was going to get hurt.
This move was meant to be fatal, but the swordsman deliberately reduced the force, causing the blade to swerve and slow down its thrust. Thus, a delicate move that should have ripped flesh and blood ended up being a scoundrel's way of ripping clothes.
Xiao Nanhui looked down at the fabric around his waist that had been cut. Knowing that the other party was arrogant and had a cat-and-mouse mentality, he felt a little relieved.
If Shika Songping fought with the intention of killing her, even if she fought with all her might, she would only have a 50% chance of survival. But if the opponent didn't put all his strength into the fight, then the situation would be completely different.
After a short breath, Shika Songping's sword attacked her back shoulder at a tricky angle.
This time, Xiao Nanhui did not dodge.
The silver snake-like sword light approached him in the blink of an eye. Xiao Nanhui reached back to touch his back and pulled out the cloth bag that had been tied to his back.
clang.
When fine steel collides, sparks fly.
Xiao Nan reached back and grabbed the pingxian, not giving Lu Songping a chance to react. He used a move called "fishing for the moon from the bottom of the lake" to violently knock the opponent's sword away. He used the reverse force to fly towards the roof, and with a somersault he created some distance.
An inch longer, a point stronger. An inch shorter, a point more dangerous.
Now that she had unleashed her weapon, although it didn't put Lu Songping in much danger, it was enough for her to escape.
Without thinking too much, she turned around and ran away.
A few feet away, the surprise in Lu Songping's eyes gradually transformed into a desire to win after being provoked. Like a jackal kicked in the chin by a rabbit, he chased after it at an even faster speed.
In order not to alert more pursuers, Xiao Nanhui had to give up escaping to the courtyard wall and ran deep into the sparsely populated palace.
Branches and vines, some slender and some thick, quickly passed by her ears. After Xiao Nanhui stepped out of the deserted path, she looked up and saw the outline of a huge palace in the night.
The sheer size of this palace seemed to hint at some information, yet there wasn't a single candle in the entire building, and it was as silent as death.
Beyond the palace, there was a road directly opposite it, so there would surely be no shortage of pursuers. Behind this palace seemed to be another palace's back garden, and beyond the garden was a courtyard wall, so finding a way out wasn't difficult.
After a brief assessment, Xiao Nanhui flew up the stone steps in front of him and headed towards the dark palace gate.
Almost at the same time, the cold wind that had been chasing her behind her suddenly stopped.
Xiao Nanhui looked back breathlessly, and saw Lu Songping's shadow standing at the first step outside the hall under the moonlight, refusing to move forward even half a step.
strangeness.
Is he tired of chasing?
Xiao Nan came back and without thinking, he ran quickly into the depths of darkness.
The scorching evening breeze came to an abrupt end in front of the door of this hall.
The moment Xiao Nanhui stepped into the darkness, she felt something cool gently caressing her cheek.
She thought it was a very large and very thin piece of gauze, but when she waved her hand, she found that the thing in the air was elusive.
The air was cold and windless, like stepping into a closed cave. Xiao Nanhui slowed down his pace, waited for his eyes to adjust to the light, and then quietly looked around.
The huge palace was deserted. Huge decorative porcelain vases, more than one meter tall, were tilted to one side, and overturned small tables were mixed with broken porcelain plates and glass cups. Occasionally, one or two shriveled fruits covered with a layer of gray-green mold could be seen on the ground.
She knew where this place was.
It is said that the palace where King Kang entertained his guests was named "Xue Mi". It was a place that only entertained distinguished guests. The palace was as cool as early autumn all year round, which was a magical existence for Tongcheng, where it was hot all year round. Many people came to visit King Kang, but not many people could actually step into the palace.
