Chapter 109 – Life and death at stake (2)
"Third senior brother…" The Jade Lake fairy’s footsteps were lithe and graceful, like that of the immortal fairy Ling Bo (1). She floated to Nangong Liuyun’s side.
She stood there with an elegant and graceful posture. Her beautiful calm face had a touch of concern. Her beautiful eyes were clouded like liquid mist. They appeared to silently gaze at Nangong Liuyun with traces of pity.
Nangong Liuyun’s red lips slowly lifted. His deep, glittering eyes were s.h.i.+ning like the lively, colorful rays of sunlight, "Luo Luo was found, I’ll go bring her back right now!"
Jade Lake fairy’s hands, which were hidden within her sleeves, clenched into fists. She was barely able to maintain the perfect smile on her face.
He would rather hurt himself and forcefully stop the recovery process to go look for her! He would rather injure his personal bodyguard, who had been with him for more than ten years, in order to go look for her!
"Third senior brother, if that Miss Su knew of your current situation, she would certainly not blame you. It’s better if you remained behind to recuperate from your injuries….."
However, before the Jade Lake fairy could finish speaking, Nangong Liuyun had brushed her aside and left with staggered large steps. He left her with only these vague words. "Wait for us to come back."
‘Wait for us to come back’, it was not, ‘wait for me to come back’….
Behind him, the veins of the Jade Lake fairy’s pair of slender hands suddenly burst out, her matchless beautiful face became extremely hideous and distorted, and her eyes shone with a vicious insanity.
Why was that little s.l.u.t still not dead! She had even been found by the Tigerwolf Regiment!
The otherworldly Jade Lake fairy punched the ten thousand year old ancient tree beside her, and the ancient tree immediately turned into dust!
How in the world did Qi Ning not accomplish such a task! She couldn’t even kill a good-for-nothing who was without a touch of spirit strength! What a piece of tras.h.!.+ They were all useless garbage!
No! She couldn’t let third senior brother find Su Luo before her!
The Jade Lake fairy’s eyes flashed with malicious light. She brandished her long sleeves and flew towards that direction.
Speaking of Nangong Liuyun.
When he saw Su Luo’s silhouette once again, at that instant, he experienced a change like going from heaven to h.e.l.l.
His Luo girl was really alright! She stood there with her entire body unharmed. At first, he was ecstatic, but almost at the same time, his heart dropped back down into h.e.l.l again!
This was because from a long distance away, he saw an arrow containing the inexhaustible power of Heaven and Earth tearing through s.p.a.ce flying ruthlessly towards Su Luo’s heart!
The arrow approached with the momentum of a torrential rush, extremely accurate and impossible to avoid!
The person who shot the arrow had at least the strength of a fifth rank!
In a split second, Nangong Liuyun’s heart almost leaped out of his throat.
Both of his eyes started to smolder like a red hot flat iron. The temples on both sides of his head violently throbbed. His complexion hazed over with an oppressiveness that was on the fringe of almost devouring people.
He was simply too far away, basically, the water from afar that couldn’t be used to quench the fire!
Fortunately, at the last second, a black-robed killer saw the threat, and without the slightest hesitation, he stood ramrod straight in front of Su Luo to s.h.i.+eld her!
Only now did Nangong Liuyun relaxed his breath, but abruptly, he felt the acc.u.mulated power of Heaven and Earth coming from that darting arrow.
He had a very bad feeling.
Sure enough, that flying arrow actually went through the black-robed killer’s body, piercing through like hot knife through b.u.t.ter. It then proceeded towards Su Luo’s heart again. What was freakishly strange was that the speed and
Nangong Liuyun’s facial muscles violently fluctuated up and down, there was a frighteningly bleak expression on his face!
Su Luo’s view was blocked by the black-robed man, his back was also very close to her, therefore she did not discover the still approaching arrow. When she found out, it was already too late to evade it.
The arrow darted with extraordinary sharpness, with the sound whistling through the wind, thrusting firmly towards Su Luo’s heart.
However, when it was a handwidth (2) away from Su Luo’s heart, all of a sudden, something unimaginable, and unbelievable occurred, leading to a huge reversal!
Just when everyone was about to witness Su Luo meeting a tragic end——
A huge occurrence took place!!!!
1) Immortal fairy Ling Bo – She was a beautiful fairy that served the Emperor in Heaven from Chinese fables. The story I remember is a tragic love story of her being the water G.o.ddess of a lake and falling in love with a mortal, resulting in daffodils being displayed on New Year’s to symbolize this story.
2) Handwidth – The Chinese words were three cun, as mentioned before, one cun equals more than three centimeters. Traditionally, three cun measures the width of all the fingers side-by-side on one hand, so this measurement was used in the translation.

Chapter 110 – Life and death at stake (3)
A deranged, malicious light flashed within the eyes of the Jade Lake’s fairy.
Everyone could only stare as the puppy covered in pure snow-white fur sitting on Su Luo’s shoulder playing with her finger casually extended a little paw, and actually——
It actually, effortlessly, firmly caught that bizarre changing arrow!
It should be said that this arrow contained the might of Heaven and Earth, its strength was so great that it would pa.s.s through a body without losing momentum. Even Su Luo would not be able to avoid it. However, this type of arrow was actually caught by a puppy?!?
Furthermore, he had grabbed it so effortlessly, making it seem as if he casually caught the arrow in pa.s.sing.
What kind of a situation was this?
Practically everyone present had their eyes wide open in disbelief. They were all dumbstruck, stupidly staring at little Meng Meng without blinking.
Little Meng Meng’s action could be said to have made everyone’s jaw drop!
With a pair of large misty eyes, Meng Meng adorably sat on top of Su Luo’s shoulder. His two little legs were crossed with his two little paws holding the arrow on both ends. LIke eating a stalk of sugar cane – "crunch crunch crunch" bite after bite, he gnawed on the arrow as if it was incredibly delicious.
Momentarily, everyone was stunned and in shock…
That arrow had been made from extracted ancient black iron ore. It was cla.s.sified as a top-grade weapon, incomparably hard and durable. Ordinary swords were simply incapable of even scratching it.
However, this puppy… he had almost completely gnawed through all of it. Furthermore, he was chewing with such delight, as if it was the most delicious food in the world.
At this point, other than feeling that it was hard to believe what was happening in front of their eyes, the people present could only remain speechless.
What kind of teeth were those? Chewing so hard that "crunch, crunch" sounds resulted? Even just watching this scene made their teeth feel sore on the puppy’s behalf.
It was only at this moment that little Meng Meng noticed that he had become the focus of everyone’s attention. Meng Meng was still holding the half-eaten arrow in his paws and had a mouthful of iron that had yet to be swallowed. With such a ridiculous appearance, he returned everyone’s gaze.
Suddenly, Meng Meng seemed to have come to his senses. He quickly discarded the arrow and very bashfully threw himself into Su Luo’s arms. Meng Meng covered his little face with his two little paws and very shyly tucked himself into her embrace.
Su Luo felt the corner of her mouth twitch as three black lines appeared on her forehead!
She had a strong urge to grab the little guy’s ear and scold him.
Please! Where is your domineering att.i.tude? Why don’t you display some of that legendary dragon race’s autocratic demeanor?
Even though your dragon father changed your outer appearance to that of a puppy, but inside you are still a dragon, ok? Furthermore, in your veins runs the blood of the mighty and awe inspiring divine dragon! How can you give off such a bashful manner? You are destroying the dignity of your dragon race, don’t you think?
Su Luo, with three black lines on her forehead, speechlessly patted the little thing that was squirming around in her embrace.
Why did she suddenly have the feeling that she had become a mother? Would this end well?
While Su Luo and little Meng Meng were having their silent exchange, Nangong Liuyun had already taken large strides to stand in front of Su Luo.
Su Luo looked at Nangong Liuyun and the corner of her mouth slowly curved up into an ironic smile. Without any hesitation, she turned around and walked away.
However, not allowing Su Luo to take a single step, Nangong Liuyun’s figure flashed and quick as lightning seized her wrist.
His hand was as cold as ice.
Su Luo started to fiercely struggle free.
However, no matter how hard she struggled, Nangong Liuyun’s hold was like an iron clamp, rock-firm and unyielding. She was completely unable to shake it off.
In contrast, Nangong Liuyun only stared attentively at Su Luo. His pearly eyes were as deep and pitch-black as a lake. Centimeter by centimeter, he scanned Su Luo all over, looking at every pore on her body in an extremely careful and serious manner.
Su Luo returned his gaze, looking into those beautiful pupils that were as dark as an abyss containing a very complicated expression in its depths. She didn’t understand his actions, nor did she want to understand.
Suddenly, the cold placid look in Nangong Liuyun’s eyes turned into a tempest, releasing a fierce frosty light. Glaring at her, he furiously said. "Where did you run off to for an entire day and night? Didn’t I tell you not to leave?! Why didn’t you remain at the original place and wait for me?"
