...

In the hermit peaks on Green Mountain.

Zhao Layue was sitting crossed legged on a bed, recuperating with her eyes closed.

Zhuo Rusui was sitting on the floor leaning against the edge of the stone bed, sleeping with his eyes shut.

Gu Qing and Yuan Qü were standing by the stone door of the manor cave, studying something. They had been locked in the hermit peaks for many days already, but they hadn’t given up on the hopes of getting out.

Tong Yan was sitting by the chessboard, looking at the Go pieces scattered on the board and reflecting on something.

The stone door of the manor cave opened up slowly.

Zhao Layue opened her eyes, but she didn’t strike, nor did she try to leave the cave.

Outside the stone door was a blackness possessing a considerably cold and gloomy intent; it was the mountain-sized body of the Dead Dog.

Zhao Layue suddenly clutched her chest, a surprised expression showing in her eyes.

A flash of blood-red light illuminated the manor cave as the Thoughtless Sword shot out of her body, brushing past her palm and turning into a red line. The sword headed toward the sky at an unimaginably fast speed after slithering through the crack of the stone door.

In the meantime, a tearing sound broke out in the manor cave, which was the sound of cotton cloth being torn apart. The Sword of the Universe shot out after breaking through the cloth, heading toward the sky as well. Gu Qing tried to catch it, but the sword traveled too fast for him.

Nobody dared leave the manor cave because the Dead Dog was guarding outside.

It was then that Tong Yan stood up by the table and came to the mouth of the manor cave. He looked at the huge body that was as dark as the color of the night through the crack of the stone door and said, “I have a story to tell you.”

“He doesn’t have any wine for us,” Zhuo Rusui remarked droopily after opening his eyes.

...

...

Countless gazes were fixed on Lian Sanyue, their eyes full of worry and shock.

Was this the consequence of fighting against the Fairy Lady?

Even though she was the strongest swordsman in Chaotian as the Immortal Tan said, she was still struck dead merely after the first spar.

It was then that a strange noise rang out in the quiet square; it sounded like sugarcane being broken in half or a hard rock being smashed by someone using a mallet.

Lian Sanyue got up slowly by pushing the ground with her hands. She stretched her wrists and neck. It turned out that the noise came from her body.

She staggered a few steps forward, as if she had drunk too much alcohol.

In fact, what she was doing was try to get used to her body.

She lifted her head up to look at the dark clouds in the sky while rubbing her neck.

A barrage of surprised screams burst out in the royal palace.

They were not surprised that she had been defeated so soon, because it was expected; her opponent was a fairy lady, after all.

What they were surprised about was that she didn’t die; moreover, she was standing up and...was ready for another round!

Lian Sanyue leapt up from the ground one more time.

The onlookers’ gazes followed her to the high sky until she disappeared in the clouds. Then everything returned to the original state.

...

...

Time passed slowly. It seemed that a long while had elapsed, but it was merely a few moments in reality.

A fine line appeared in the clouds again, and that shooting star reappeared in the sky. Lian Sanyue was knocked down to the ground again.

Along with a thunderous boom, a spider-web appeared in the square of the royal palace again.

The people looked at her lying in the middle of the spider-web with complicated emotions.

A moment later, Lian Sanyue stood up once more, rubbing her neck. She took a look at the gray sky, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and leapt up to the sky once more.

...

...

It didn’t take long before she fell down from the sky.

The spider-web appeared in the square a third time.

Lian Sanyue took a bit longer to stand up this time. Her dress was drenched with blood, her face a bit pale, but there was no fear that could be detected in her eyes.

She swore toward the gray sky before leaping up again.

...

...

Leaping up and then falling down.

Over and over again.

This scenario had repeated a great many times by now.

The royal palace was as quiet as a graveyard.

The only exception was the thunderous booms of air breaking when she fell down from the sky and the explosive thuds of the subsequent impact.

The ground kept on shaking.

More spider webs were added to the square; they almost filled the whole area.

Seeing this scene, the people couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe.

Who dared fight against the Fairy Lady in this world? And who could survive while doing so? Amazingly, she had kept fighting after each defeat.

However, Lian Sanyue’s opponent was still a fairy lady; no matter how persistent she was, she would still end up defeated even though she could keep on fighting for a while.

Many people noticed that Lian Sanyue took more time to stand up after each fall, but they failed to notice that she stayed longer each time in the Empty Realm.

The clouds opened a crack again; the shooting star illuminated Zhaoge City again; and the earth quaked again. She lay in the middle of the spider-web again.

Lian Sanyue lay on the ground with her eyes shut, her face pale. She didn’t get up for a long time.

Was it because she couldn’t take it anymore?

Everybody gazed at the middle of the square and Lian Sanyue, their eyes full of anxiety and worry.

Time passed slowly. She hadn’t stood up after a long while.

A voice came over from somewhere, “Senior Master, stand up please!”

Lian Sanyue was still lying on the ground.

Time passed. After a long while, she opened her eyes just as many people lost hope.

She looked at the dark gray sky, her eyes devoid of any hint of fear; but she appeared a bit tired.

She pushed the ground with her fist and stood up slowly; then she turned around and spat to the ground.

Pooh!!!

The bloody spittle landed in a crack on the ground, which was ablaze after entering the crack like a stone.

Lian Sanyue leapt up to the sky again, the rims of her dress generating many beautiful flames due to their friction with the air; it looked like a shooting star traveling backwards.

Seeing this scene, the people were stunned speechless. She had been knocked down to the ground from the sky by the Fairy Lady so many times, but she was still alive; furthermore, her fighting intent was as strong as ever. How could it be possible?

...

...

Above the Empty Realm.

Bai Ren stood in the sky several miles away, a golden glow enshrouding her body that exuded a sense of sacredness.

Lian Sanyue came out of the clouds. She grabbed a handful of the morning sunlight with her right hand and threw it at her opponent after turning the morning sunlight into a flying spear by gathering a great amount of yuanqi of heaven and earth.

The Yuanqi Spear of Heaven and Earth seemed to have pierced through Bai Ren noiselessly and as fast as lightning, but it didn’t cause any tangible damage to her.

Looking at Lian Sanyue quietly, Bai Ren said through her spiritual awareness, “I didn’t expect you to use the Fairy Book I left behind.”

The reason Lian Sanyue could fight for such a prolonged period of time was because she had almost limitless fairy energy in her body rather than the fact that she had reached a Cultivation state as high as the Fairy Lady.

Bai Ren had left three main fairy books and three accessory fairy books for cloud-Dream Mountain before her ascension. Of the fairy books, the Fairy Book of Suppressing Demons was used to restrain the Underworld Emperor; the Fairy Book of Longevity was used by the Center Sect as the reward for the winner of the Dao Competition, which was won by Jing Jiu.

What the Center Sect didn’t know was that Jing Jiu had tempered the fairy awareness in the fairy book and then infused all the fairy energy into Lian Sanyue’s body.

Lian Sanyue had finally transformed all the fairy energy into her own zhenyuan after having slept at the Waster-Moon Nunnery for many years. She had recovered completely from her injury and became more powerful than she had been long ago.

“I’m employing a fairy book and you’re using a fairy book; the two of us have a similar amount of fairy energy. In other words, it’s not so easy for you to kill me.”

Looking at Bai Ren in the distance, Lian Sanyue opened up her arms, the morning sunlight shining on her body, the ends of her tousling black hair radiating a golden glow and breeze.

It was the fairy energy.

This was the strongest she had ever been.

The Immortal Tan had no choice but to admit defeat, because the current Lian Sanyue was the true fairy lady in the human world. Regardless of how powerful the Immortal Tan and Kou Qingtong were, it was impossible for them to be her match in such condition.

“Let’s fight again.”

Lian Sanyue turned into a straight golden line, heading toward Bai Ren in the distance.
