Chapter 65

In the darkness of the night, the wind blows serenely as the leaves of the trees sways harmoniously. The shade of the foiliage prevents the dim light of the moon from touching the ground.

A light cheerful hum reverberates in the silent night. Clearly, the owner of the voice is seething in happiness.

The crackling of the fire added to it's tune, as the juices of the meat that is currently being grilled sizzled everytime it touches the ground.

Di Xueyan, in her happiness, decided to try how grilling using the campfire feels like.

'Isn't it what a normal cultivator usually does?'

'What is electricity? What is solar panel? I am a demi god now!'

' I should act like an immortal!'

She arrogantly chanted in her brain. The euphoria she experienced days ago still refused to leave her system.

She seems to forgot that immortals don't grill.....

Because they don't eat.....

"..."

Anyways, the happiness she is feeling right now is legit, since she is sure that no one in this whole continent is more powerful than her right now.

She just lacks proper combat experience.

Her mother that was forgotten: "..."

But still, as an experienced novel reader, all authors always emphasized that there are always people that are better than you.

And she takes that seriously.

But since she is in a place with no people, she felt like she has the right to act cocky.

She looks like someone who has a temporary amnesia that clearly forgot that she was nearly smashed to death a week ago by a strange beast.

Though they are not human, they would still rob her off of that right.

Di Xueyan realized that but she doesn't care, thinking that they aren't humans anyways. Comparisons will only hurt you.

She is immersed in her own world when she felt a movement behind her.

She instantly went on high alert, but still acts like she is busy grilling. Her humming already stopped even before she felt the movement so she looks like she already focuses her senses in grilling.

The thing is, the meat already looks like a coal, which clearly sold her out.

She broke into cold sweat when she saw her dinner.

What a waste!

She was too happy earlier that she almost forgot that she is grilling!

Another movement made her pause slightly again, this time, no matter what kind of beast the thing behind her is, she already has the confidence to fight it without running.

All these days, after she became a demi god, she has been consolidating her power. Aside from that, she also read a lot of techniques from her mother's book to aid her. What she lacks right now is how to execute those techniques to a living and moving enemy.

She already studied those techniques that were used for beasts with different strenghts like speed, metal like skin, sharp horns, venomous spit and bites and so on. So, she is very well prepared.

A sudden sharp wind blew past her. She instinctively dodge and took her sword out. What stunned her is the fact that she heard a 'ding' sound that echoed although out the forest.

'What the actual fuck?!'

She cursed in her mind again and again as a sword went past through her own eyes.

'Fuck?! I thought this is only a training ground? How come there's a person?!'

She can't help but to break into cold sweats for a moment.

' Damn, this shit is a demi god!'

She cursed a little bit more as she assessed her enemy while making sure that her head will remain intact.

The person who attacked her just now looks like just a normal person. But what is striking and most noticeable is the fact that his face looks like it was frozen in Antarctica. His eyes are dead and his face is devoid of any emotion.

If someone will ask her if the person she is battling is a human then she would probably say no.

" But my brother usually looks like this though", she softly snicker as she manipulates her green fire to fuse with her sword, making her sword intent way stronger than the usual.

Her brother who nearly fell from the roof when he tried to sneak into a certain courtyard: "..."

Her attack makes the man steps back but there is still no changes from his face.

They continued exchanging blows after blows, making the dark forest shines with green and blue lights. Many ancient trees were knocked down. Now that Di Xueyan already has a little bit of grasp of her power, she felt more confident.

Though she only practiced some moves against beasts.

Who would have thought that there's a fucking human being in this 'training space'?

But anyways, though they are of the same realm and the person she is attacking right now looks like he has been in the realm for few years, she is still confident that she can win this fight.

A strong sword intent flashed through her as she calculates her moves. The sword intent barely went pass her as she narrowly escaped. Her heart shivers for a bit as the usual blue aura that the man's sword intent usually emits now looks like it holds the entire universe. Not only because of its colors, but also because of its power.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw how it razed quarter half of the vast forest behind her.

'Shoot!'

She calms herself as her eyes instantly went cold. Her hold of her sword tightens as she looks at the still emotionless man in front of her.

" Hey brother! May I know why you have to attack me?", they have been exchanging blows for half an hour now but she doesn't even know what is this for.

'For territory?'

'Just because he feels like it?'

'Or maybe because I am an eyesore?'

She has a proper hunch, but she just feels like it is not possible.

Instead of a reply, the man just expresionlessly flick his arm as he suddenly vanish from his spot.

Being on guard, Di Xueyan's eyes narrowed and she also disappears without a trace.

Green and blue lights flickers in the dark night as they swords collide. They are so fast that you can only see the sparks of the colliding swords, but not the owners.

Half an hour later, Di Xueyan is already clutching her waist as blood gushes out. Her face is already filled with numerous cuts as she wipes the blood that oozes from her lips with her sleeve.

The eyes filled with enjoyment awhile ago turn murderous as she looks at her opponent.

' Fuck! He really wants to kill me!'

The man is also not any better than her. But unlike her, the man is not even clutching his nearly mutilated arm, as if he felt no pain. The blood just gushes out from his arm freely, but the man doesn't even flinch.

She already is certain of what the hell is happening as of now. It looks like the mirror is way powerful than she first thought. It can even manifest a human being! If not because the man is moving like a puppet, she would have never thought that it is the artifact's work.

While fighting, she has been trying to incite any emotion from the man, but she realize that she can't. As if the man is not even alive.

It has its own breath but it looks like it is not his own. The blood looks real but a faint spirit qi can be felt from it. Also, as it acquired numerous injuries, it is now looking a little bit faint, though if you are not really finding faults, you will never know it.

Though the mirror can't make a perfect human being, as it has no emotions, it is still terrifying as it can make something this powerful.

Now, she can fully understand the despair of the Phoenix clan when they lost the mirror. Ha! Such heaven defying artifact was just gone in a blink of an eye.

'Who the fuck told them to offend a demoness who is now her master?'

Though she is amused, she doesn't even have the time to laugh as the hateful being uses his ultimate move again, but this time it is way faster than the rhythm of their fight right now, thus though she evaded it, it still brushed through her left arm, dragging her with its energy.

She flew backwards as she slams at trees after tress. The impact is so strong that she felt her world spinning and her breath tightens. Pain registered in her system, she felt as if her skin is breaking and her bone is breaking. She knows that she can't give up without a fight. So though she felt like she is dying a hundred times right now, she still tries to open her eyes while gritting her teeth until the momentum stops and her back crashed in an extremely sturdy material.

In an instant, she vomits litters of blood, making her muddled head extremely terrified. She knows that her external injury is too severe that she felt like dying any moment.

The fact that she was only hit by the surrounding energy of the attack makes her want to just reincarnate or gatecrash in the heaven and just offer herself. But she knew that she can't give up.

'Crap!'
