Chapter 23: The purple Aura

An Cheng leapt up in the air and hovered up a few meters up from the ground. Le Fangling raised her head up and saw a beautiful scene.

A glowing fairy on a dark night sky while the bright moon acted as a background for her. The scene was clearly mesmerizing, even for Le Fangling who was caught up in momentary wrath.

"Thousands scattering leaves in the autumn desert!" An Cheng made a clean cut in the air with a swift slash of her sword.

She seemed to have cut the air and space right there with her sword. It wasn't a perfected technique but this was the best bet she had right now to end this fight before it even started.

"Hah…That should do the trick!" An Cheng sighed as she prepared to land down on the ground. She was not playing dirty by attacking first… she was just trying to end the things as fast as she could instead of dragging things long.

…..

"Heh.." Le Fangling let out a smirk as she condensed the energy that was surrounding her and spoke inside her head.

'System, I know you are listening to me!' She called out the system that had shortly gone silent after sending her bunch of notifications.

'Use it, Use the sharp weapon resistance or something that I have.' Le Fangling ordered the system, making the system wake up with a jolt.

"And whatever defense I can use." She added.

<You are finally back?> The system yelled out a cry of surprise and relief in its small voice, realizing that it had not been forgotten by the host.

"I am here." Le Fangling spoke without much emotion even when compared to the mechanical voice of the system. "I have been here all along." She let out a sigh.

<You sure about activating all the defense abilities?> The system asked a little unsure at this request from the host.

'Do it!' She ordered the system while she looked at the fluttering fairy right in front of her with an unfazed look.

<Activating sharp weapon resistance level: Basic>

<Activating pain resistance level: Basic>

<Activating sleep resistance level: Basic>

<Host, you should know that it won't be able to stop damage that exceeds its limit.> The system reminded her back in case she got injured .

<And they will have their own backlashes. Make sure to handle the consequences later on.> The system reminded Le Fangling before going silent.

'Hmm.." Le Fangling nodded her head. She knew there will be consequence but she could not pull out of the duel after speaking such great words.

<Do what you want. Just don't die.> The system reminded her once again.

<Because if you die, I am going to kill you myself!> The small voice of the system rang inside her head.

Well, the fact that the host was about to face a strong opponent was already suicidal and system had nothing more to say regarding this incident except Ambitabh!!!

<And when you are done, tell me what all of this purply thingy is!> The system was the one who was lost this time around on the matter of Le Fangling.

It had clearly analyzed the host's body and found that there were injuries here and there but the power she was exuding now was clearly something she shouldn't have been able to do.

And to even make it more confused, the energy that had surrounded Le Fangling's body was not spiritual energy!!

Because if it had been, it would have calculated and accumulated them as the spiritual energy.

<!!!> There were way too many errors and abnormalities in this situation.

"Oh, don't worry. I ain't dying now. " Le Fangling addressed the concerns of the system while she checked the current status of the person in front of her.

[Name: An Cheng

Affinity: Wind

Cultivation realm: Spirit Enhancement Realm

Rank: Third stage of Spirit Enhancement realm

Specialty: swordsmanship]

[Physical stats:

Defense: 5 (Wind barrier)

Agility: 10 (Wind Dancer)]

Le Fangling quickly went through the important stats that her current opponent had which quickly gave her the idea of what she might be capable of doing.

'So, she has wind affinity." Le Fangling wondered inside her heart when another thought appeared too.

"And I can also see some of the hidden information.." Le Fangling nodded her head in approval at this update.

"Did I get stronger because of this?" Le Fangling looked at herself and the purplish aura that had surrounded her whole body.

She had absolutely no idea on what in the holy world this purplish thing might be but well, she did not care much about it as it was giving her power to do something.

'It's the power that was within me, so this might not be bad huh?" Le Fangling thought as she thought about the sudden surge of power that she had felt inside her but it was different from how the spiritual energy had felt.

This time, the energies felt way too different and cold, unlike when she absorbed the spiritual energy from the tree and the pond and also Elder Lin.

When she absorbed the spiritual energy, they gave her a warmth and fuzzy feeling but this purplish aura made her feel cold and chilly feeling…but weirdly, it did not feel that bad!!

Le Fangling decided to leave the menial chore of thinking this after she was done with the small duel between the hottie in front of her.

She was facing off a strong opponent right off the bat not because she was overconfident on what she had got but it was more like her desire to use the power on someone or something and the perfect person to help her test it was An Cheng.

"Aight…she is flying.." Le Fangling commented inside her head looking at the enchanting scene in front of her.

"And she does look beautiful." Le Fangling was being serious when she said this. Never in her life had she seen anything look as beautiful as the person and the setting that she was currently watching.

With her long hair that had been left undone swaying with the winds and her green robe that fluttered in the cold breeze made her look like a tempting nymph who was descending in earth from heaven.

Le Fangling wondered how nice it would be if she was able to go on a flying date with the girl in front of her.

"But I got to make sure that she doesn't send me off flying off first."

<Exactly!>

The system reminded Le Fangling when it heard her thoughts and reprimanded her but it was kind of glad that the host was acting like the real person she was and not like the incarnation of wrath itself.

"Sorry about before." She apologized and looked in front of her, at the opponent she was going to face.
