Chapter 947: Turns Out Everyone Grew Up
Originally, he had made up his mind to properly watch his own teacher’s unmatched bearing, but what Liu Banbi did not expect next was that the battlefield between the two quickly left the area and went off to some unknown distant place.
Although Liu Banbi felt some regret, he also knew full well that the most important thing now was to confirm his little junior sister’s safety, so he hurried toward the bottom of the valley.
But just as he had gotten up, Xie Nandu had already appeared. This female sword cultivator, who had suffered a strike from the demon lord, slowly returned to the mountaintop. Her face was somewhat pale, but her movements were unhindered.
Liu Banbi was first stunned, but then immediately understood the reason and sighed, “All thanks to that stinking brat.”
Xie Nandu nodded. When a demon lord made a move against her, without any accident, she would certainly have died. But fortunately, she had a suit of armor on her body. It had originally been obtained from overseas by the Great Liang Emperor and given to his nephew. After that young man received the armor, he immediately had Song Lian deliver it to the Northern Frontier and place it into Xie Nandu’s hands.
If Chen Chao had not been so insistent back then, and had instead waited until their next meeting to give this Skyglow Armor to Xie Nandu, then today she would likely have been unable to escape this calamity.
Liu Banbi took a deep breath and used sword qi to nourish the many acupoints within his body, then asked curiously, “Little Junior Sister, do you know that person’s origin?”
Xie Nandu nodded. “I heard Teacher mention it just now. It’s that demon lord White Jing. Back then, the great sword immortal Zhao Wuyan, with a single man and a single sword, killed his way into the demon domain. It is said he slew many great demons and demon lords. The demon domain fell into some chaos and urgency, and regarded it as a humiliation. Later, White Jing went south from the demon domain and used the same methods to kill many human powerhouses, even wiping out Great Sword Immortal Zhao’s sect. After that, there was no more news of that demon lord. After so many years, I didn’t expect that his reappearance would be to kill a weak woman like me.”
Hearing her call herself a weak woman, Liu Banbi felt a trace of amusement, thinking that if someone like his little junior sister counted as a weak woman, then there was probably no one in the world who wasn’t.
