Chapter 17 - Fighting her [1]

Stepping out of the room, Qian Renxue glanced at Xuan Yan. "Follow me..."

With a nod, Xuan Yan followed the beautiful girl as his mind wandered 'Bibi Dong's adopted daughter.'

A soft sigh escaped his lips 'Bibi Dong is my favourite character in Douluo Dalu...'

'So while writing the fic, I changed her tragic past of getting violated by her teacher and wrote that Qian Daoliu came and saved her at the time from Qian Xunji.'

'But I still needed Qian Rexnue.. so I wrote that 'In frustration, Qian Xunji violated a beautiful maid and that's how Renxue was born.'

'Later, Qian Xiunji died due to the injuries he received during his fight with Tang Hao and Ah Yin.'

Qian Renxue turned her head to look at Xuan Yan and smiled in her heart 'Now lets see your combat skills, cute one.'

They reached a room, and Qian Renxue opened it showing the enormous hall with open ceiling, and there were also training weapons, training dummies and stuff arranged there.

Xuan Yan stepped onto the smooth stone ground and looked around with mild interest.

"We'll fight here," Qian Renxue muttered, moving to stand at one end of the training ground.

She turned to face him, her golden eyes gleaming with excitement. "No need to hold back. Show me everything you've got."

"Alright," Xuan Yan replied casually, stepping to his position at the opposite end.

Qian Renxue raised her arm, and released her Seraphim Martial Spirit.

A magnificent angelic silhouette appeared behind her, six radiant wings extending outward in a display of divine power.

The Angel Sword materialized in her hand, and three spirit rings, two yellow and one purple circulated around her.

Xuan Yan was amazed to look at it 'So this is the Six winged angel, Seraphim spirit...'

Without wasting time, he also released his martial spirit.

A dark void opened beneath him, and his sword emerged, its surface etched with reddish patterns that pulsed faintly.

Qian Renxue squinted her eyebrows 'A tool martial spirit.. Hm, sword.'

Seeing this, a smile appeared on her lips as she gripped her sword tightly 'He would be a good opponent for me.'

'I shouldn't go all out on a 6 year old.. but in the meantime, he defeated a level 25 Spirit Grandmaster without even releasing his martial spirit.'

'So, I shouldn't underestimate him.'

A light breeze swept through the training grounds, ruffling their hair.

"Ready?" Qian Renxue asked in a confident tone.

Xuan Yan nodded, his grip on Ea tightening. "Whenever you are."

*swoosh* Without hesitation, Qian Renxue lunged forward at an explosive speed.

She closed the distance between them in an instant, her angelic sword slicing downward in a powerful arc.

*sleesh* Xuan Yan reacted quickly, raising Ea to parry the attack.

*clang* The clash of their blades reverberated through the air like thunder.

Sparks flew as their swords met repeatedly, the sound of steel against steel echoing in the vast training hall.

"You're holding back," Qian Renxue said, a faint smirk playing on her lips as she spun into a horizontal slash aimed at Xuan Yan's midsection.

Xuan Yan ducked low, evading the attack, and countered with a quick upward slash aimed at her shoulder.

Qian Renxue twisted her body midair, narrowly avoiding the strike, and retaliated with a downward thrust.

Xuan Yan sidestepped and pivoted, deflecting the thrust with a sharp clang. "I could say the same for you."

*clang* Their swords collided again but this time with more force.

Qian Renxue channeled her spirit power into her strikes, the golden aura around her blade intensifying.

Xuan Yan, in turn, infused Ea with his own spirit energy as the edges gleamed in red energy.

As Qian Renxue swung her sword, Xuan Yan raised his sword, parrying it at the last second.

Her blade struck with the force of a thunderclap, forcing Xuan Yan to take a step back as he blocked the blow.

"You're stronger than I expected," Qian Renxue uttered, her tone carrying a hint of respect.

Xuan Yan smiled and nodded his head "Thank you, Miss Renxue."

Gripping her sword, Qian Renxue asked "Not using your spirit rings?"

Xuan Yan just smiled and replied "Make me..."

Hearing this, Qian Renxue's lips twitched "You are really over confident..."

Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed "Let's see how you handle this," she said as her second spirit ring glowing brightly.

"Angelic Descent!"

Behind her, a golden silhouette of an angel manifested, its features strikingly similar to her own.

The phantom figure wielded a sword, mirroring Qian Renxue's movements.

Its presence alone radiated overwhelming pressure, as though divine judgment itself had descended upon the battlefield.

*swooosh* The angel surged forward alongside Qian Renxue, its sword slashing downward in perfect synchronization with her own attack.

The combined strike carried an immense force, and the ground beneath them cracked under the sheer weight of their power.

Xuan Yan reacted swiftly as he activated his first spirit ability and two black rings manifested around him 'Phantom Slash...'

His blade glimmered with a red light as he swung it in a wide arc.

*SWOOSH* The energy released from the slash expanded outward, forming a massive, crescent-shaped wave of pure destructive force.

The red energy roared forward, tearing through the air with terrifying speed.

The two attacks collided in midair.

*THOOM* The golden angel's strike met the Phantom Slash with a thunderous impact.

The divine aura clashed violently with the red energy as the resulting shockwave rippled outward, shaking the ground.

For a brief moment, the two forces seemed evenly matched, but Xuan Yan's Phantom Slash began to push through, its power overwhelming the golden angel.

The angelic silhouette trembled under the pressure before shattering into a cascade of golden light.

Qian Renxue's eyes widened as the remnants of the slash surged toward her.

She crossed her sword in front of her, creating a golden barrier to absorb the impact.

*CLANG* *WOOSH* The force of the attack drove her back several meters, her heels digging into the ground to maintain her balance.

When the dust settled, Qian Renxue stood tall and her eyes narrowed in thought.

The power behind Xuan Yan's strike had exceeded her expectations.

"Impressive. I see why you're so confident."

As she spoke, she glimpsed at the two rings surrounding him "A 10000 year old ring as your first ring? what in the-"

"How can someone get a black ring as their first spirit ring? Isn't the threshold 500 years?"

Xuan Yan shrugged his arms casually, not giving her an answer.

-_- Qian Renxue looked at him blankly "I will get my answer after defeating you..."
