Chapter 58: Xuan’er’s Insecurity (1/2)

At that moment, Ning Wuxie held Xuan’er, and as they fell back to the ground, a powerful force erupted from the center of his body, causing the surrounding area to tremble violently.

That was the immense impact generated by Ning Wuxie falling from a height of ten thousand meters!

The injury-avoiding talisman worked perfectly, allowing the lethal impact that Ning Wuxie should have suffered within those three breaths to be redirected into the surrounding area.

Boom!

A loud noise echoed as the trees around Ning Wuxie snapped, toppled by the massive shockwave.

A large pit appeared beneath Ning Wuxie, dust flying everywhere, and the small clearing in the forest seemed to have experienced an explosion!

Ning Wuxie slowly opened his eyes, and the energy field of the injury-avoiding talisman had dissipated. He felt that his body was mostly unharmed.

Xuan’er also lifted her little head from his chest, looking at him in surprise.

He succeeded!

At the moment of impact with the ground, the injury-avoiding talisman had just activated within those three breaths!

The damage from the fall was perfectly mitigated!

Ning Wuxie let out a long sigh and sat up while holding Xuan’er.

“Brother, are you okay?” Xuan’er looked at Ning Wuxie’s face anxiously.

“I’m fine, we are safe now.”

A flash of white light appeared before them; it was Bai Zhou.

“Did you actually survive?!”

She looked at Ning Wuxie in shock, then glanced around at the chaotic scene.

She had originally thought that falling would result in two mangled bodies, but unexpectedly, both Ning Wuxie and Xuan’er were completely unharmed!

She looked at Ning Wuxie again with astonishment as he bent down to brush the dust off Xuan’er’s clothes, as if what had just happened was nothing out of the ordinary.

“How did you do that?” she asked in surprise.

“It’s nothing, just the injury-avoiding talisman at work.”

Ning Wuxie replied nonchalantly, “After using it, all damage can be avoided within three breaths. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare jump off the Flying Boat.”

“Three breaths?!” Bai Zhou was shocked again.

Three breaths was a very short time; she had just exclaimed that, and it was almost three breaths already.

Falling from the Flying Boat, the object accelerated continuously, yet Ning Wuxie managed to activate the talisman within that three-breath time?

What a bold heart!

Bai Zhou fell silent, quietly observing Ning Wuxie, her thoughts gradually changing. The previous assumptions about Ning Wuxie might have been incorrect.

This human, although his bloodline was not as noble as hers, was indeed quite mysterious.

Perhaps the reason Miss was so devoted to following him had other explanations…

Bai Zhou’s eyes no longer held disdain but were replaced with curious attention.

Confirming that Xuan’er was uninjured, Ning Wuxie brushed off her clothes and tidied her hair.

He looked around; everywhere were the deep green phoenix trees, indicating that they were nearing the territory of Yaochi Sect.

However, there might still be a considerable distance to the Li Yaochi Sect mountain gate, as the Flying Boat had crashed prematurely and did not reach the intended destination.

At this point, the only option was to head toward Yaochi Sect.

Meng Cangran had celestial treasures and was accompanied by Dongfang Yu, so there should be no issues; it was just uncertain where he was.

Originally, the two humans had planned to go to Yaochi Sect as well. Although the report stated that Yaochi Sect had recently closed its mountain gate to outsiders, they still intended to check the situation.

Now that the two humans were separated, Meng Cangran would likely also go to Yaochi to find him.

After discerning the direction, Ning Wuxie led Xuan’er toward Yaochi.

“Bai Zhou, fly out and scout to see if that assassin followed us!”

Ning Wuxie settled Xuan’er, not forgetting the poisoned wooden arrow from Yao Xin.

Huangquan was relentless; having been targeted, he would definitely come back to attack.

However, with the injuries inflicted on him by the Flying Boat and Bai Ze, he should be unable to battle again for a while.
