Buzz!
The circular ring paused and trembled in the air for a moment, then it suddenly…
Boom!
It shattered into smithereens!
Silence descended in the garden.
Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief as they stared at the shattered circular ring. “How is this possible?”
“Level 5! This is a Level 5 Spirit Item. How can it get destroyed so easily?”
Yin Shanjun reached the verge of madness. “Who? Who dares to damage my golden ring?”
Everyone raised their head. Yeah! Who is it? Who is so powerful that they can destroy a Level 5 Spirit Item so easily?
However…
As they looked ahead, they were so shocked that they paused in their tracks!
A handsome and elegant man was floating in the air.
Dressed in a white robe, he looked like a divine being instead of a human, a god who had fallen from heaven to the mortal realm.
A strange and intricate bloody mark decorated his forehead, adding a tinge of otherworldly unusualness to his icy, expressionless, and perfect face.
He silently floated in the air. Although his face was expressionless, he looked innately dignified and noble. He had not revealed any of his powers, yet he exuded a fatally dangerous aura…
“…” A look of awe flashed across everyone’s eyes. They could not help but exclaim, “No mortal can compare to his elegance and poise. He can only be compared to a god from the heavens.”
However, when they saw his fluttering sleeves, they were jolted back to reality. Swallowing their saliva, they stuttered, “If I remember correctly… earlier, he… he just gently waved his sleeves.”
“And shattered a Level 5 Spirit Item!”
“This is unbelievable! Utterly unbelievable! How powerful must he be to do that?”
An Shaoning and Lou Xiaoxiao, whose hands were tightly clasped together, heaved a sigh of relief. “He has finally arrived!”
“Now, we can stop worrying for sure!”
“Yeah! Young Master Dan Taiyuan will never let Qianxue get hurt!”
An Shaoning tenderly looked at the woman beside him. “Xiaoxiao, although I’m not as powerful as him, I’ll definitely protect you, just like how he protects Miss Qianxue!”
Lou Xiaoxiao blushed as she held his hand.
However, everyone else’s attention was on Dan Taiyuan.
“Who is he?”
“Where did he come from?”
“Why did he attack? Is he a friend or a foe?”
As they were discussing…
The man in the air shot toward Yin Shanjun like a bolt of lightning.
His voice was cold and indifferent, yet it was charged with absolute confidence as if he were the grim reaper who controlled the fates of all mortals.
“You deserve to die!”
As he spoke, his sleeves gently fluttered.
At the next moment.
Whoosh!
A white flash of light sped toward Yin Shanjun.
“Huh? Is he trying to kill Yin Shan—?”
They had yet to finish when they saw that amid the blinding white light, Yin Shanjun’s expression twisted in fear. His mouth was wide open, yet no sound came out of it.
In the blink of an eye, that terrifying light entirely enveloped him, then he completely disintegrated, leaving nothing behind!
Everyone gasped in fear!
“An immediate defeat!”
“It’s actually an immediate defeat!”
“Oh my God! This is unbelievable… What kind of a beast is he?”
Everyone quivered as they retreated and distanced themselves from that man…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Lou Qianxue’s heart rapidly beat.
“It’s him!” A look of delighted surprise flashed across her eyes. After waking up from two years of sleep, she had deliberately suppressed her memories involving him and pushed them into the depths of her mind.
She thought that it would be a long time before she would see him again.
Never did she imagine…
The moment she arrived at the Imperial City…
“Dan—” Lou Qianxue opened her mouth to speak, but…
“Mr. Bai! I’ve finally caught up with you.”
Another slender and white figure sped toward them and said in a soft voice.
Lou Qianxue paused, then she called out again, “Dan…”
At the next moment, she saw a gorgeous lady clad in a white dress stride toward the man. The lady endearingly and cutely said, “Mr. Bai, why aren’t you saying anything?”
Lou Qianxue froze on the spot.
Everyone turned their gaze from the man in white robes to the young lady in the white dress.
“How… How beautiful!”
“However, she looks a bit familiar…”
“I feel like I’ve seen her somewhere before…”
Although exclamations of surprise sounded around her, it was like Lou Qianxue could not hear anything at all.
Her dark and pretty eyes stared at the man as a dazed look appeared on her face.
