Chapter 446: Several Hundred Miles

Chapter 446: Several Hundred Miles

On this night, both sides did not hold back, genuinely seeking to send the other to their demise. Countless towering trees which had been growing peacefully in the forest now fell one after another, covering the mountain with shattered wood. The forest echoed with continuous sounds, chaotic and tumultuous, accompanied by the continuous release of powerful qi, causing fear and trembling among the distant demons.

Great Beyond, Great Beyond, cultivators who could reach this level were almost all extraordinary talents. Moreover, these two were still so young; just one step away from reaching the final Nepenthe Realm.

The two kept fighting throughout the night, and as dawn approached, they finally separated. Chen Chao lowered his head to glance at his chest. His black shirt had been torn apart, and there was a bloodstain on his chest, although it had not penetrated deeply. The girl in front of him did not look any better. Her shoulder had been slashed by Chen Chao's saber, nearly resulting in him cutting through half of her body. But the girl with her exposed shoulder seemed indifferent. However, in Chen Chao's eyes, the originally blood-soaked shoulder was currently rapidly healing.

Seeing this scene, Chen Chao's expression turned grim. What kind of demon was she exactly?

The girl remained silent. After a brief pause, she leaped and behind her, a deep mountain spring suddenly surged, forming a water dragon that roared towards Chen Chao.

Chen Chao also raised his saber at the same time, a saber qi several dozen feet long forming in the palm of his hand, then appearing between heaven and earth. It suddenly pressed down, as if wanted to cleave apart heaven and earth.

The girl narrowed her eyes. At this point of the great battle, the fact that the opponent still possessed such abundant qi took her by surprise. However, it also made her rather happy. If the young martial artist in front of her was too weak, then there would not be much enjoyment for her. It was when the opponent grew stronger that she would feel more joyous after finally killing them.

However, the combat strength that her opponent displayed at this moment was just too overwhelming. It would be quite difficult to kill him.

As the saber qi pressed down, it shattered the water dragon, then descended, cutting a trench several dozen feet long in front of the girl. But when the saber qi reached the girl, she remained unmoved, only extending her hand to block in front of her. The saber qi collided with the girl, then suddenly dissipated, scattering the saber qi in all directions before finally dissipating. for new novels

Chen Chao borrowed the momentum to continue advancing, arriving in front of the girl once again and slashing with his saber. The sharp saber light illuminated the heavens and earth, but the girl simply slapped Chen Chao's wrist, causing his saber to deviate off course. Then, she pressed her palm against Chen Chao's chest. Chen Chao remained expressionless, throwing out a punch before the girl could exert force. Once again, the two exchanged injuries.

Chen Chao staggered back seven steps, while the girl only took three.

"If you continue this reckless style of fighting, you should know that the physique of humans can never match up to us demons."

The girl shot towards Chen Chao lightly, attacking once again. Her hands moved in a dazzling flurry; too fast for the eye to follow. Endless demonic qi manifested in front Chen Chao. Chen Chao closed his eyes, refusing to look, but continued to swing his saber.

In a battle of life and death, the most important thing was not how many trump cards you have, but whether you fear death or not. Those who feared death often died faster, while those unafraid of death were less likely to meet their end so easily.

Risking life for life was Chen Chao's specialty to begin with. So he was not worried.

However, he underestimated the girl before him. He initially thought that her extraordinary background would make her more fearful of death. Their previous encounters seemed to confirm this assumption. But now, it appeared different. After this girl gave rise to a desire to kill Chen Chao, she seemed indifferent to the notion of exchanging injuries or betting her life.

As a result, both were in perilous situations. There was once when Chen Chao nearly decapitated the girl, but her hand strike came dangerously close to slicing Chen Chao's neck at the same time. But in the end, they both tacitly retracted their attacks. Risking their lives did not necessarily mean they really wanted to die together.

However, some of the less serious injuries exchanged were not stopped by either party.

Several more wounds quickly appeared on Chen Chao's body, while the girl's clothes were slashed apart by Chen Chao's saber, the sight of her chest partly hidden and partly visible.

......

Hundreds of miles away, the girl's figure appeared. A full moon hung high in the sky, and under its light stood a tall man with his hands behind his back.

After seeing this man, the girl said softly, "Royal Father."

The tall man glanced at his daughter, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "On this journey southward, your cultivation realm didn't fall. Who were you fighting against? Those daoist geniuses?"

Shaking her head, the girl gave her father an unexpected answer. "It was a young martial artist."

The tall man frowned at the mention of the words "martial artist". Even he could not help but think of that man who dared to traverse the desolate north freely.

"In recent years, the humans have produced some geniuses. Even he has a successor now?"

The tall man was naturally the Demon Emperor who had traveled south. Since he was the Demon Emperor, the girl was naturally the princess of the demon race.

The princess shook her head and said, "I don't know his name or identity."

The Demon Emperor chuckled lightly. They were only separated by a few hundred miles now. If he wanted to, he could easily capture the young martial artist and even crush him with a mere flick of his finger.

However, as the Demon Emperor, he could not possibly compete with every unfamiliar young person he encountered.

"Since you couldn't kill him, wait for next time. We are going to the Infatuation Daoist Temple to take a look and see how that Temple Master is doing. You'll come with Us. Perhaps there will be a good show to watch."

The Demon Emperor's journey southward had yet to be discovered by the human race, simply because he had not made a move yet.

The princess nodded and asked, "Royal Father, do you intend to trample the Infatuation Daoist Temple?"

The Demon Emperor did not speak, he just reached out to tousle his daughter's hair. At this moment, the unparalleled emperor of the demon race did not seem so much like an emperor but more like a father.

......

......

As for Chen Chao, he could only gaze in the direction where the girl had disappeared for a long time, still unaware of the reason.

He did not know that he and the Demon Emperor were only separated by a few hundred miles.
