"Actually...actually I'm blind!"
"Oh? That's a real shame."
Feng Guang heard his regretful voice and was just thinking that he might be able to escape alive, but then he heard his next sentence, "You can't see the person who killed you with your own eyes."
In an instant, the bamboo leaves that were fluttering down stopped in mid-air. Then, they shot towards the girl who was crouching on the ground at an extremely fast speed. Feng Guang covered her head and cried out in her heart that her life was over, but the pain she had imagined did not come. She heard the sound of a sword.
Suddenly, a man appeared, brandishing a long sword and blocking her way. His sword energy swept away the fallen leaves one by one, and then he asked with concern, "Miss, are you alright?"
Feng Guang opened one eye and saw a towering figure in front of her. In her eyes, he was like a god. Before she could even say that she was alright, she saw Nangong Li fly up and strike with a palm, and she hurriedly shouted, "Be careful!"
Dan Ya turned around, drew his sword to block, and took a step back with Feng Guang's hand. After creating some distance, he asked with a stern face, "Who exactly are you? How dare you trespass into my Tang Clan's secret chamber and attempt to kill someone here?"
He was originally tracking down the person who trespassed into the secret room, and only came over when he heard the commotion. Unexpectedly, he ran into the person he was looking for.
"He is the leader of the Demonic Sect!" With Shan Ya hiding behind her, Feng Guang became much bolder.
Dan Ya looked at Nangong Li suspiciously, "Are you the leader of the Demonic Sect?"
"Interesting." Nangong Li smiled, touching his lips. "I've never revealed my identity. How did you know, little girl?"
Danya also looked at the scenery, waiting for her answer.
Feng Guang said confidently, "Rumor has it that only the leader of the Demonic Sect is androgynous. Judging from your bearing, you can't be some nobody. If you're neither male nor female, are you not Nangong Li?"
Neither male nor female… Nangong Li’s throat tightened, but she quickly smiled even more beautifully, “Little girl, I suddenly don’t want to leave you with a complete corpse.”
"Master Shan, protect me!" She grabbed Shan Ya's clothes, her attitude making it clear: my survival depends on you.
Dan Ya shielded her behind him and faced Nangong Li with a cold expression, "Arrogant. Even if you are the leader of the Demonic Sect, the Tang Clan is not a place where you can act recklessly."
Dan Ya stepped forward with his sword, but Nangong Li dodged the attack and then feinted a move before flying away. Only his voice echoed in the bamboo forest: "Tang Clan, I will return."
He was injured after all, so he didn't linger and withdrew. Feng Guang patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, then heard a voice in the air: "I will take that woman's life too."
Ugh...
She choked up without saying a word.
"Don't be afraid, young lady. The Tang Clan will protect you." Nangong Li was skilled in lightness skills and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Shan Ya came back to comfort her. It's normal for a young girl to be afraid when threatened by the leader of the Demonic Clan.
Feng Guang's mood didn't lighten at all. "What if I leave the Tang Sect?"
"This... can't the young lady stay in the Tang Clan?" Shan Ya knew that his words were abrupt, but under such circumstances, this was the only response he could come up with.
Feng Guang sighed as he looked at Shan Ya's straightforward face. "Forget it, let nature take its course."
Life and death are beyond our control, she thought, and turned to leave.
Danya said, "Miss!"
"What is it now?" she asked, disheartened, without turning her head.
"If you're trying to get out of this bamboo forest, you're going the wrong way."
She paused, her face stiff as she walked back. "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
Danya scratched the back of his head. "You didn't ask either."
Master is right. Women are indeed the most difficult to understand and the most unreasonable creatures.
