Chapter 27 - Murong Qianxue's Strength

“Lightning strikes the deep gorge, and the dragon emerges from the water!”

The creature before them is about thirty feet long, covered in dark scales, with sharp teeth and fierce dark green eyes. The evil dragon quickly noticed the two standing on the cliff, roared again, coiled up, and rushed towards them.

Murong Qianxue stepped forward, blocking Gu Liuyun. She then gestured and chanted, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to gather rapidly.

Gu Liuyun stood still, having full confidence in Murong Qianxue. While, in general, monsters of the same level were stronger than human cultivators, Murong Qianxue was a true prodigy.

As the evil dragon approached, Murong Qianxue’s hair swayed in the gusty wind, and with a determined look, she pointed her slender fingers into the air.

“Supernatural Power – Binding Dragon Cable!”

A golden spiritual energy rope shot from her fingertips, binding the evil dragon in place. The evil dragon roared in frustration but couldn’t move, held in place by the magical rope.

Gu Liuyun watched in admiration. The Binding Dragon Cable was a rare control ability, and the evil dragon was completely under control. On the other hand, Murong Qianxue made her move again.

Faced with the struggling but immobilized evil dragon, she gestured again and said, “Supernatural Power – Nine Skies Thunder Strike!”

Mysterious purple thunder patterns appeared in the air, enveloping the evil dragon. Then, a series of nine divine thunderbolts struck the helpless dragon.

“Boom boom boom…”

The thunder-based magic had devastating power and created a magnificent visual display. After the nine thunderbolts subsided, the evil dragon was charred lifeless.

Gu Liuyun couldn’t help but admire his senior sister; she was remarkable. From this display, he could tell that Murong Qianxue was unmatched in the Shenfu Realm, and her strength ranked among the top three. Of course, the primary focus was on how stunning Murong Qianxue looked at this moment.

With her body still radiating energy and faint purple lightning, she appeared like a goddess controlling thunder, exuding unparalleled beauty. She turned around and met Gu Liuyun’s admiring gaze, causing her heart to beat. While Murong Qianxue had a cool demeanor, she appreciated compliments, and the genuine admiration in her junior brother’s eyes was more significant than any praise.

She slightly turned to avoid the intense gaze and asked, “The evil dragon is defeated. What’s next?”

Gu Liuyun noticed her actions and realized his earlier gaze had been overwhelming. He composed himself and said, “Could you please cut open the abdomen of this evil dragon? The Supreme Elder might leave something behind.”

Murong Qianxue nodded, and with a gentle wave of her hand, a spiritual energy wind blade swiftly flew by, completely cutting open the evil dragon’s abdomen. Gu Liuyun stepped forward to inspect carefully. After a while, his eyes gleamed as he discovered a scroll within the dragon’s belly.

“Look, senior sister,” he exclaimed.

Murong Qianxue untied the dragon rope and prepared to dispose of the evil dragon’s body. Still, Gu Liuyun stopped her, suggesting that the dragon’s body held valuable resources that could benefit the disciples of Tianluan Peak.

Murong Qianxue, accustomed to abundant resources due to her exceptional talent in cultivation, was unaware of the dragon’s value. Gu Liuyun, in relief, discarded the dragon’s body, thinking his senior sister was too extravagant.

Murong Qianxue joined Gu Liuyun, but she noticed the dragon blood on his arm upon approaching him. With a quick gesture, she used her water manipulation skills to cleanse his arm.

“Thank you, senior sister,” Gu Liuyun expressed his gratitude.

Gu Liuyun carefully unfurled the scroll, revealing the word “sword.”

“What is this?” He wondered, reaching out to touch the word with no response.

Confused, he turned to Murong Qianxue for guidance. Murong Qianxue observed the scroll and then closed her eyes. A faint golden light radiated from her brow, representing her advanced spiritual awareness, a feature of Divine Palace Realm cultivators. Under the glow of her spiritual awareness, the word “sword” on the scroll suddenly illuminated, and a figure slowly materialized above the parchment.@@novelbin@@

“Who has discovered my copybook?” The figure asked.

Gu Liuyun recognized the figure as an elderly white man with a long beard and a presence resembling an indestructible sword. Together, Gu Liuyun and Murong Qianxue bowed in respect.

“We are Tianluan Peak, Murong Qianxue, and Gu Liuyun disciples. We greet the Supreme Elder.”
