Chapter 10 Luo'er

The mountain road leading to the base city in southern China.

This used to be an important transportation route before the great disaster, but now it is desolate, with many damaged vehicles scattered along the road.

Bloodstains can still be seen on the road from time to time, indicating that this place was once besieged by a large number of monsters.

Even now, there are still a few monsters lingering here, some of them even treating this place as their territory and refusing to leave.

At this moment, a figure in black swiftly shuttles through the mountains and forests beside the road. He dare not drive openly on the road, as it is a taboo!

"Following this highway, we will reach the base city in southern China in a few days," Chu Tiannan said as he looked at the electronic detector on his wrist. This device had many functions.

He was currently using the mapping function, which was directly connected to satellite detection, making it extremely accurate. However, he was unable to log into the warrior system.

Because in the warrior system, there was no record of Chu Tiannan's identity.

Carefully and agilely, he climbed onto a tree. Chu Tiannan's chest rose and fell slightly, as the intense escape over the past ten days had taken a toll on him.

Swish!

"Why is this guy so persistent?" It seemed that he had heard something, and Chu Tiannan's expression changed. He gritted his teeth and swiftly left, feeling the urgency.

It's no wonder Chu Tiannan had been running all this time, because the one chasing him was not some so-called monster, but a girl he had once saved.

"My name is Luo'er. I hope you remember me after you die!"

This was what the sword-wielding girl said when she was chasing Chu Tiannan.

"Are you crazy?" But what Chu Tiannan felt in response was a roar in his heart.

For some reason, Luo'er, whom he had saved, was single-mindedly trying to kill him, and her reasons were quite bizarre.

"I can only fully devote myself to cultivation after I kill you and stop thinking about you!"

For ten days, Chu Tiannan had been under intense mental strain. Whenever he let his guard down, Luo'er would appear like a phantom, and each time they met, it would result in a fierce battle!

Gradually, Chu Tiannan lost his patience and began to fight back, especially when he used the Yan Tian Sword to fend off the opponent's giant sword for the first time but hesitated to strike.

Not only that, they were evenly matched. Chu Tiannan also realized that Luo'er had extremely strong talent, so he stopped engaging with her.

The two of them embarked on a ten-day life of chasing and escaping!

Two figures, one in front and one behind, were getting closer, and Chu Tiannan was surprised to find that Luo'er's pursuit speed was faster than he had imagined.

It seemed that they were about to meet again!

"Do you really think I won't dare to kill you?" This time, Chu Tiannan was really getting desperate. He stopped with the Yan Tian Sword in hand, waiting for the girl in yellow to catch up with her sword.

"Why aren't you running anymore?" Luo'er looked at the furious Chu Tiannan in front of her and asked softly, "I can catch up, don't make me!"

"I..." Chu Tiannan was speechless. He raised his hand and struck with his sword. This was the first time he had taken the initiative since meeting Luo'er!

Clang!

Faced with a sword that could instantly cut down a high-level beast soldier, Luo'er, wielding a giant light sword, showed no fear. She countered with her sword, sparks flying, but was forcefully pushed back!

In the girl's gem-like beautiful eyes, there was a shining light!

"In ten days, you've become stronger again!"

"It's all thanks to you!" Chu Tiannan roared in his heart. The intense battles over the past ten days had propelled him from a high-level warrior to the peak, and it seemed that advancing to a martial artist was only a matter of time.

It could be said that the only benefit he had gained from these unlucky ten days.

"You deserve to let me use this move!"

At that moment, the giant sword in Luo'er's hand thrust forward, and suddenly, red light enveloped the surroundings. The air around them underwent a drastic change, as if sharp sword edges were pointing towards Chu Tiannan.

"Huh?" Faced with this situation, Chu Tiannan was witnessing Luo'er's unprecedented burst of power for the first time.

He wanted to retreat, but found himself seemingly enveloped by invisible sword edges, and could only use the Yan Tian Sword to fend off the continuous thrusts from Luo'er.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Chu Tiannan struggled to fend off the sharp sword edges with the Yan Tian Sword. He was completely at a disadvantage, thinking that Luo'er's strength was almost on par with his own.

In fact, it was clear that she had not used her full strength!

Swish!

After barely fending off the sharp sword edges, Chu Tiannan was about to stabilize himself when he saw a red light figure swiftly approaching, carrying a powerful force.

It struck fiercely!

Buzz!

Due to the sudden stop, the giant light sword in Luo'er's hand was still trembling violently. If she exerted a little more force, she could easily sever the head of the young man in front of her.

"Alas..." Although surprised by Luo'er's sudden burst of power and her unknown sword technique, Chu Tiannan knew that he had lost, and lost without any suspense.

He was completely outmatched!

As a former powerhouse, it was quite embarrassing to be defeated by a girl.

"You win, my life is in your hands!" Chu Tiannan said with a complex expression as he slowly placed the Yan Tian Sword behind him.

Although he felt extremely unwilling, was Chu Tiannan not someone who feared death?

But if he were to fall this time, it would be a complete downfall, with no hope of returning...

"It's a pity that I didn't die in the mouth of a profound beast, but at the hands of the person I once saved!" Chu Tiannan self-mockingly thought, but he had no regrets. Even if given another chance, he would still choose to save someone.

The air at this moment was so quiet that it was suffocating, and Luo'er, holding the giant sword, stared at him but did not make a move.

Instead, she furrowed her brows, as if struggling with something.

"Hmph!" A cold snort made Chu Tiannan, who had closed his eyes and was waiting for death, open his puzzled eyes again.

Buzz!

At the same time, Chu Tiannan saw a red light accompanied by sharp edges, fiercely slashing towards him, leaving him with a bitter taste.

It seemed that the outcome was already determined...
