Chapter 878 - Delicate Night (2)

Shen Yanxiao considered herself as a connoisseur of good looks. However, she could not find any words to describe Xiu’s appearance.

“What are you thinking about?” Xiu looked at Shen Yanxiao, who had a complicated expression on her face, and a trace of doubt surfaced in his golden eyes. He could sense a trace of fluctuation in Shen Yanxiao’s mind, but he had no idea where it stemmed from.

“Nothing! Nothing.” Shen Yanxiao hastily shook her head. If Xiu were to realize that she was secretly assessing his beauty, he would probably slap her to her death.

In this world, rarely would there be men who appreciated their beauty being assessed.

Even though Xiu was not a ‘man’ per say, he was still a male, and a powerful one at that. Therefore, he must dislike such comments.

In order not to be questioned by Xiu, Shen Yanxiao immediately dismissed all the strange thoughts in her mind. She would definitely be killed if she were to peek at the beauty of a super expert!

“I told you, you don’t have to be afraid.” Xiu could only sigh when he saw Shen Yanxiao’s fearful expression. Before this, he had only shown his strength twice in front of Shen Yanxiao.

The first time was to intimidate the two Phoenixes, and the second time was while dealing with the Second-Class expert of the Broken Star Palace. He had never shown full strength, so why was the little girl so afraid?

“No...” Shen Yanxiao wanted to explain, but she was afraid that Xiu would discover her thoughts if she did so. In the end, she decided to keep her mouth shut.

If the people in Sun Never Sets knew that Shen Yanxiao, the girl who had always treated them like trash, had turned into a tame little rabbit in front of a certain great master, what would they think?

One could only say that in this world, those who had the biggest fist was the boss.

Shen Yanxiao’s fist was not as big as Xiu’s so she could only obediently submit to him.

“Then don’t let your thoughts run wild. Use all of your moves on me and I will not retaliate.” Xiu hesitated for a moment before he decided to let Shen Yanxiao rest her mind for the time being. He would let her attack him for a few days. It would be good for him to guide her to be on the offensive side first. Once she had adapted to it, he would then teach her how to truly fight.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Very well.” Shen Yanxiao nodded. Afraid that something bad would happen again, she took out Clemance from her space ring and held it in her hand.

Shen Yanxiao gulped as she looked at Xiu, who was only five steps away from her. Did he want her to attack him?

For some reason, Shen Yanxiao felt a little excited.

A tiny thought in her heart called out, ‘I can justifiably hit my lord, while not having to worry about getting hit back’.

“In that case, I won’t be polite,” Shen Yanxiao said to Xiu in a pretentious manner. She no longer had any intention of holding back.

“Come.” Xiu nodded.

Shen Yanxiao curled her lips into a nasty smile, and the evil flames danced happily in her eyes.

Was it fun to torture someone else?

She mustered her full strength and pulled the bowstring until it’s taut. Then, she cast a curse on the arrow with her fingertips. In the blink of an eye, she released her fingers and the arrow flew towards Xiu’s handsome face at lightning speed!

Shen Yanxiao’s smile deepened, but the next second, she could no longer smile.

Xiu grabbed the arrows with his fingers, which immediately stopped all of her subsequent moves.
