Chapter 347 Xiao Yan is bald and angry
.The retreating figures slowly stopped, and the figures of Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran finally appeared clearly under everyone's gaze. Looking at the appearance of the two, no one in the audience showed the slightest surprise.
At this moment, Xiao Yan was already panting, with crisscrossing sword marks on his body. Under the deep sword marks, one could faintly see bright red blood. He did not gain any advantage in the previous crazy close combat.
However, Nalan Yanran was still relaxed and comfortable, only her originally neat moon-white dress became a little messy because of the battle.
A light breeze blew across the square, and the two people's robes swayed in the wind, and their long black hair fluttered.
Xiao Yan has always been very proud of his close combat ability. In his opinion, he has gone through real blood, sweat, and training, and even suffered from being chased and stabbed by a monkey when he had diarrhea. He is far from being able to compare with Nalan Yanran, who lives a life of luxury and careful practices. Therefore, when facing Nalan Yanran, he always has the confidence to fight against a higher-level opponent.
However, Nalan Yanran was much stronger than he had imagined. The original close combat was turned into a war of attrition by Nalan Yanran using the speed characteristics of the wind-attributed Dou Qi. This was the last thing Xiao Yan wanted to see.
Because there was no Green Lotus Earth Core Fire and the accompanying Purple Crystal Source, after fusing dozens or hundreds of beast fires, the level of the Burning Decree was barely raised to the low level of the Profound Rank, but it was still far inferior to the original.
This also resulted in a significant decrease in the strength and durability of Xiao Yan's Dou Qi. After a fierce battle with Nalan Yanran, his Dou Qi was severely depleted. While maintaining a fierce offensive, he gradually lost strength.
On the other hand, Nalan Yanran, not to mention her Dou Qi cultivation is higher than Xiao Yan, even the level of her martial arts has reached the lower earth level, so her strength and endurance are naturally beyond doubt.
As one gained strength while the other lost, Xiao Yan found it difficult to make any progress in the competition with Nalan Yanran.
Xiao Yan's dark eyes looked at Nalan Yanran opposite him with a somewhat complicated expression. Compared to his embarrassment and astonishment, Nalan Yanran was much calmer, with a peaceful expression on her beautiful face. The breeze blowing towards her made her three thousand black hair that fell to her hips flutter slowly. The girl's perfect outline was faintly revealed as the hem of her skirt flew by. Against the backdrop of the clouds of Yunlan Mountain, the girl in the light white dress looked even more beautiful.
However, Xiao Yan had no intention of appreciating her because this beautiful woman was the one who trampled on his dignity and brought him shame.
Xiao Yan closed his eyes, and an infinite amount of anger suddenly surged in his heart. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the humiliating moment three years ago. He increased the strength of his hand holding the ruler handle, and under that great force, the joints between his fingers turned white.
"Nalan Yanran, let's fight it out!"
The dark, angry eyes suddenly opened. Gray-white flames shot out from them. The powerful aura emanating from Xiao Yan's body suddenly rose, and he went from a three-star Grand Fighter to a seven-star Grand Fighter.
He grasped the Xuanzhong Ruler with both hands. Gray-white flames swirled upwards. A thunderous roar rang out in Xiao Yan's heart. The Xuanzhong Ruler swung out a fiery ruler light like a tidal wave. It heavily bombarded Nalan Yanran in front of him.
"The first of the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire: Beast Fire Transformation."
The oncoming rays of light made Nalan Yanran's calm face slightly, but after the brief emotion, she felt bored.
The seven-star great fighter, his strength soared by four stars in a short period.
If this is Xiao Yan's true strength, then it would be too boring.
"A secret method to improve your strength?" Nalan Yanran murmured, changing her previous style of countering each move. Her pretty red lips slightly raised a beautiful playful arc, the long sword in her hand suddenly glowed with green light, and she swung out a sword light that was no less powerful than Xiao Yan's.
The sword light and the ruler light intersected, held each other for a moment and then exploded in the void. The water molecules in the air evaporated, raising water mist all over the sky.
Xiao Yan looked stunned. He didn't expect that even after using the Three Mysterious Transformations of Skyfire, he still couldn't do anything to Nalan Yanran.
At this moment, a long sword flashing with dim light pierced out from the mist, and Xiao Yan subconsciously lowered his head to avoid it. At the same time, he clenched his right fist, the veins in his arm throbbing, and with a powerful air-breaking energy, he angrily smashed towards the owner of the sword blade, launching a counterattack immediately.
"Eight Extreme Collapse!"
The powerful air-breaking energy blew away the mist, revealing Nalan Yanran's beautiful figure.
Facing Xiao Yan's counterattack, Nalan Yanran still dodged easily with her speed, but incidentally, the long sword in her hand shifted slightly downward.
Two figures, one gray and one light blue passed each other. A black ponytail-like straw was thrown into the sky and slowly fell to the ground under the breeze, falling between the two people.
"Pfft. Hahaha."
Seeing this scene, everyone's mouth twitched first and then burst into laughter. Even Yun Yun, who was serious in front of outsiders, couldn't help but smile slightly.
The one who laughed the most was Chen, the head of the Mu family in the imperial capital. He patted Nalan Jie on the shoulder and laughed loudly. "Haha. What kind of battle is this? My old friend, your granddaughter is too naughty. If you want to fight, you should fight well. How can you cut someone's hair? But then again, I'm afraid that only friend Xiao Yan in the world is suitable for this strange hairstyle."
Hearing this, Nalan Jie's face trembled. Although he wanted to laugh, he had to show his guilt towards his old friend's grandson in front of outsiders, so he couldn't laugh.
Nalan Yanran swung the sword in her hand, turned around looked at Xiao Yan in distress, and couldn't help laughing: "Oh, sorry, I accidentally lost control of my strength and cut the wrong place. But this handsome hairstyle suits you very well. It's much better than your messy ponytail."
A breeze blew towards him, and at this moment Xiao Yan felt a chill on his head. He turned around, looked at the black ponytail scattered on the ground, and touched his smooth head, which reflected a dazzling white light under the sunlight.
His hair was cut into a highway-like shape by Nalan Yanran's sword.
Listening to the laughter coming from all around, Xiao Yan's already stiff face turned pale and then purple. The handsome image that he was most satisfied with after his rebirth was destroyed.
The weird atmosphere lasted for a while before the laughter ended. Xiao Yan tore off a corner of his black robe and wrapped his bald head with it. Then, he poured the Dou Qi into his body into the Xuan Zhong ruler like boiling water. As the Dou Qi in his body surged, the black ruler suddenly turned fiery red. The strange special patterns on the ruler began to emit a fiery red light. The energy between heaven and earth began to move, resonating faintly with the black ruler that had turned as fiery red as the setting sun.
"Flame Devouring Waves Ruler!"
