Chapter 37: Eve of the Grand Battle (Part 2)

The soul of Ao Xue trembled slightly, and a strange sensation silently spread throughout her body, giving her an unprecedented feeling. Looking at Lu Yun, Ao Xue smiled faintly, and her astonishing beauty instantly appeared before him. At this moment, she suddenly understood that this was the affection between humans, beautiful and enchanting, making it hard to part and impossible to forget. With a gentle display of her white teeth, Ao Xue's calm voice revealed a hint of sweetness.

"At the ends of the earth, between you and me!" In the faint whisper, the firm tone in Ao Xue's voice sent shivers down Lu Yun's spine. Lu Yun looked at her with surprise and admiration, softly expressing his own commitment. "Through countless cycles, enduring a thousand changes, the vicissitudes of time won't change my heart!"

Ao Xue's eyes glimmered with a soft light, and her smile reappeared. Looking at Lu Yun, she whispered, "Let's go, it's already dark." With that, her figure gracefully shot out.

Under the moonlight, Lu Yun and Ao Xue stood atop Mount Tai Xuan, silently gazing at the bright moon in the sky. The night breeze gently blew, causing Ao Xue's pure white dress to dance in the wind, creating a breathtaking sight. Lu Yun looked at Ao Xue's enchanting beauty, and the desire to embrace her surged within him. Quietly standing by his side, Ao Xue's alluring figure was only a foot away, her clear gaze fixed on him. "Where should we go?" she asked softly.

Lu Yun, looking into those clear eyes, felt a strange emotion flowing silently between them. After a long while, Lu Yun spoke, "Ao Xue, let's take a walk outside." He stood up and looked at her with eyes filled with endless anticipation.

Ao Xue, with a subtle gleam in her eyes, nodded gently. Rising, she walked slowly to Lu Yun's side. A fragrance, delicate as orchids and musk, deeply attracted Lu Yun. Standing quietly beside him, Ao Xue's mesmerizing figure was just a foot away, and her clear gaze focused on him. "Where are we going?" she asked.

Lu Yun, looking into those clear eyes, felt a strong urge to hold her in his arms. However, he did not show it. After glancing at the people behind them, Lu Yun whispered, "Don't ask too much, trust me, and come with me." He looked into her eyes, revealing a clear expression of affection.

Just as Lu Yun explored the mysterious black light, seven consecutive high-frequency psychic forces launched a frenzied attack on him in the form of waves. The speed and frequency were unprecedented for Lu Yun. Due to the considerable distance between the two parties, ordinary attacks were entirely useless, and defense was the only option. However, with the supreme technique "Limitless Heaven and Earth" in his possession and the extraordinary psychic wave he had mastered, Lu Yun was well-equipped to counter such attacks, which were undetectable by ordinary people. After setting up layers of defense around him, Lu Yun instantly unleashed sixteen streams of psychic waves at varying frequencies, ranging from eighteen thousand to ninety-six thousand times per instant, fiercely retaliating. Psychic waves were intangible and could traverse space and time, making them indifferent to the distance.

Two powerful and mysterious forces clashed at a long distance, each filled with destructive power. Lu Yun's aura outside his body shook, causing a domineering force to explode around him, annihilating all trees within a dozen yards. Ao Xue was forced to unsheathe her divine sword, fully defending against the invisible attacks.

Lu Yun's eyes gleamed with divine light as his true essence skyrocketed instantly. Psychic waves, at a rate of a hundred and eighty-three thousand six hundred times per instant, unleashed nine consecutive attacks, striking the black light, resulting in a sudden explosion in the distant sky, illuminating half of it with a dazzling radiance. Lu Yun sneered as he clearly sensed the impact of his sudden strike. The outer layer of the black light instantly showed a gap, revealing a strange green light inside.

It was a giant green light ball about a yard in size, its contents indiscernible to Lu Yun. However, he sensed a tremendous demonic energy within. In an instant, Lu Yun realized that the opponent's attack against him was the "Heart Desire Erasure" technique of the Devil Sect. It was no wonder the opponent could easily traverse space and launch an attack from such a distance. After two clashes, Lu Yun had already figured out that if there were demonic creatures inside, they must be at least demon gods, as only they could achieve a psychic wave frequency exceeding seventy-nine thousand times per instant.

While Lu Yun analyzed, another powerful demonic energy appeared in his mind. Simultaneously, a deafening explosion echoed from the direction of the Heaven Sword Sect's Sky Abyss Cave. Following the ascent of a five-colored radiance, it looked like five divine dragons dancing and roaring in the mid-air, searching for something. After the ascension of the five-colored radiance, several figures shimmering with different auras suddenly appeared in mid-air and instantly shot towards the location of the two demonic entities.

Lu Yun's aura receded as he silently stood in mid-air, like a ghost hidden in the darkness. Below, Ao Xue retracted her divine sword and rose into the air, standing beside him, watching quietly.

With a calm tone, Ao Xue asked, "Why did you withdraw the protective true essence from your entire body? Is it because you don't want them to discover us, or is there another reason?" After finishing her words, she looked at him with a hint of doubt in her serene eyes.

Lu Yun glanced at Ao Xue and whispered, "This is Mount Tai Xuan, where many things do not require our intervention. Besides, I don't want to reveal too much before I truly confront Sword Dust. More importantly, I don't want them to know too much about what's on me. Now, there are plenty of experts here, and we don't need to take action. Let's leave and continue our moonlit journey." He suddenly smiled, his exceptionally handsome face emanating a captivating charm.

Lu Yun seized Ao Xue's jade-like hand, pressing it gently against her heart. Smiling, he gazed at her with a charming brilliance, releasing an irresistible charm. Before Ao Xue could speak, Lu Yun said, "With the company of a refreshing breeze and the bright moon, holding the hands of a beautiful lady, traveling to the ends of the earth, our hearts will forever remain unchanged." After finishing, he burst into laughter, the sound carrying boundless joy and satisfaction, dissipating with the wind.

Under the cover of night, two faint figures vanished into the serene mountain forest. In the gentle breeze, a few light smiles and soft hums danced with the wind. On Mount Tai Xuan, there were glimpses of flashing blades and sword shadows, traces of tender affections, entrusted to the wind. The night passed silently, and everything concluded within the passage of time. As the eastern sky blushed, everything returned to calmness, as if nothing had happened.
