Chapter 184: Chapter 207: The Little Junior Sister’s Painting
Seeing Chen Nan’s aura surge violently, Gongsun Yudie’s expression changed drastically. She felt her life was under threat. The fierce aura emanating from Chen Nan, like that of a God Demon, made her extremely uneasy, as if there was a sharp sword hanging over her head that could fall at any moment.
"Since that’s the case, I’ll take your life!"
With a loud shout, Gongsun Yudie’s aura surged, and blue True Qi swirled around her body like ripples of water. As she waved her delicate hand, all the True Qi gathered quickly towards her right palm at a high speed, finally condensing into a nearly substantial ball of True Qi in her palm, and she hurled it towards Chen Nan with great force.
"Clang!"
The seemingly gentle water-like Hand Power, when it collided with Chen Nan’s purple-gold True Qi, produced a sound like clashing metals. The ground trembled, and an incomparable energy storm swept out like a nuclear bomb explosion, instantly destroying everything within a few meters.
"Crack..."
As the final snapping sound echoed, Chen Nan’s purple lightning shattered completely, and Gongsun Yudie’s pale blue True Qi also completely dissipated. Both of their bodies were blasted backward by the recoil, flying back a full thirty meters and breaking through seven or eight trees before tumbling to the ground.
"Puh..."
Chen Nan struggled to stand up but felt a stifling sensation in his chest. A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, and his consciousness then blurred, and he fainted.
He had already been seriously injured by Gongsun Yudie’s sneak attack earlier. Although he had fought back with all his might, Gongsun Yudie, after all, was a master of the Eighth Layer Heaven, with much greater strength than him. In the clash, Chen Nan was overpowered.
Gongsun Yudie, who was also shaken to the point of spitting blood and severely injured, did not suffer as gravely as Chen Nan. After controlling her breathing for a moment, she managed to firmly stand up.
At this point, the two were sixty meters apart. Gongsun Yudie gave Chen Nan a frosty stare and walked towards him step by step.
She was also shocked by the power of Chen Nan’s Thunderbolt Hand just now. Had she not sneak-attacked and injured Chen Nan before, she truly wasn’t confident she could have suppressed him with that strike.
"To possess such combat strength in the Qi Dao Seventh Heaven, you indeed are a fearsome opponent. Had you not killed Brother Wang, perhaps we could have become friends," she said softly to herself while staring at the unconscious Chen Nan. Her palm lifted slightly, and a water-blue True Qi pulsated in her palm. Then, flipping her hand over, she unleashed a torrent of Hand Power towards Chen Nan’s head.
This palm strike, if it connected, would surely crush Chen Nan’s skull, leading to certain death.
"Bang!"
Gongsun Yudie’s palm came down fiercely. However, it did not strike Chen Nan’s head but instead smashed a nearby boulder to pieces.
At the critical moment, she diverted the direction of her attack.
Originally, Gongsun Yudie intended to kill Chen Nan with that palm strike, but after she actually carried out the attack, she became conflicted. She wanted to kill Chen Nan, yet she found herself unable to go through with it. She remembered the last time when she fell into Chen Nan’s hands. Though it was detestable of him to have removed her chest clothing, he didn’t do anything excessive to her. Despite knowing she was his enemy, in the end, he spared her life.
Staring at the handsome face before her, Gongsun Yudie clenched her fists tightly, her heart torn with struggle.
After a long while, she stood up, glanced at Chen Nan on the ground, and said indifferently, "You spared my life once, so I’ll spare yours this time. If we meet again, I will surely take your life!"
After saying this, she was about to turn and leave when she suddenly noticed the scroll in Chen Nan’s hand.
Bending down to pick up the scroll, Gongsun Yudie unfolded it and saw a landscape painting. While the painting was skillfully done, the ink was quite fresh, appearing to be no more than two to three years old, and didn’t look like a valuable antique.
"After all the trouble I’ve taken to snatch this painting, it must be very important to you. Today, I’ll destroy it and leave you empty-handed!"
Gongsun Yudie grasped the painting in both hands and tore it forcefully in two, pushing the smaller half into Chen Nan’s hands before taking the larger piece and turning to leave.
"I leave you with half, to watch and grieve!"
Gongsun Yudie’s voice echoed in the woods, but her figure had already vanished into the distance.
...
Half an hour later, Chen Nan awoke from his unconscious state.
"Damn it, that woman really has some tricks up her sleeve!"
Chen Nan got to his feet and scanned his surroundings. There was no sign of Gongsun Yudie, only the middle-aged man still lying on the ground. Chen Nan frowned, had she already left? Given the situation just now, she should have taken the chance to kill him instead of leaving, why did she go?
Scratching his head, Chen Nan couldn’t let it go, concluding that he must be too handsome; so handsome that even Gongsun Yudie couldn’t bear to kill him.
"I really have to thank my parents for giving birth to such a handsome face."
Chen Nan sighed, but his expression soon changed drastically. The painting in his hand, how did it get torn?
He clearly remembered shielding the painting with his left hand while fighting Gongsun Yudie, making it impossible to "accidentally" damage the painting. How had it ended up torn?
Hastily unrolling the painting in his hand, he found not only was it torn, but only a small portion remained, the larger half had disappeared without a trace.
"Gongsun Yudie, you thieving witch, screw you!"
Chen Nan couldn’t help but curse loudly, realizing that the other half of the painting must have been taken by Gongsun Yudie, and she left this small half probably just to infuriate him.
Staring at the small piece of the painting in his hand, flames nearly shot from Chen Nan’s eyes. After all his efforts to find this painting, to have it torn by her!
"Next time you fall into my hands, if I don’t screw you to death, I’ll write ’Chen’ upside down!"
Furious, Chen Nan clenched his fists tightly, and after a while, he finally calmed down, took out a healing pill and popped it in his mouth, sat down cross-legged, and while replenishing his True Qi, he began to examine the painting in his hand.
Although only a small part remained, Chen Nan could vaguely make out that it was a landscape painting, definitely the work of his little junior sister, painted by her own hand.
After looking at the painting for a while, Chen Nan brought it to his nose and sniffed, detecting a special fragrance of ink—the Heavenly Water Ink.
This Heavenly Water Ink, unique to Huaguo Mountain, is a special kind of ink as clear as water, and the characters written with it can only be revealed after special treatment.
Chen Nan hastily took out a porcelain bottle filled with blue medicinal liquid. It was the same liquid he had previously used to treat Qin Yixuan and Lan Yuqin. After dropping a couple of drops onto the painting, a miracle occurred.
The original landscape painting gradually vanished, and on the once blank canvas, two lines of small characters appeared!
