Sword Shatters Stars

Chapter 13 Winning Ma

Zhao Youyue didn't want to take any risks.

Although I say I should consider myself a Heavenly Warrior, I actually am not!

If someone attacks, it's all over.

But Lin Xiufeng seemed to have a reason, and she followed suit without hesitation.

Not long after, Lin Xiufeng spotted Jin Dao.

He looked around, then lay down on the ground and crawled through the low bushes.

Turning around, I saw that Zhao Youyue was facing difficulties.

She tried to move while lying down, but her chest was too high and was blocked by tree branches. Not daring to make a sound, she used the stones on both sides of her arms to move, and could only look at Lin Xiufeng.

Lin Xiufeng turned around, squatted down to the side, and slowly moved the branch with her fingers.

Until Zhao Youyue moved over.

The two continued to move carefully, and as they got closer, they could hear each other talking.

The woman's sobs gradually subsided.

And there was Jin Dao's gentle, comforting voice.

As the woman spoke words of self-reproach, Jin Dao said with some emotion:

"This is our decision. If you now find that you would prefer him to stay, I will respect your choice."

"No, no, that's not what I meant..."

The woman hurriedly explained, pulling Jin Dao's hand and hugging his arm, murmuring:
"It's my fault. I couldn't make a decision, but from now on, I will only have eyes for you. I will never think about him again, and I will never be like I was before..."

"You don't believe me? You don't believe me?... I'll give myself to you right now, so you'll believe..."

Zhao Youyue, who was crouching behind the bushes, rolled her eyes at Lin Xiufeng.

After all that effort, you just want to listen to gossip and peep?
Just to hear this woman say disgusting things?
However, Lin Xiufeng had no intention of leaving. He remained focused on listening and watching through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

Zhao Youyue didn't want to watch or even listen anymore.

She despises fickle women; they are a disgrace to women!
As for Lin Xiufeng's focus, Zhao Youyue understood perfectly; why not watch it if you can?

Lin Xiufeng suddenly pointed.

Zhao Youyue glanced over and saw the woman's hand sliding over Jin Dao's abs.

Zhao Youyue looked at it intently, feeling that the golden knife was quite interesting...

Lin Xiufeng was speechless, realizing that Zhao Youyue's attention had completely wandered off.

But they couldn't speak or make a sound, so they could only observe carefully on their own.

Before long, the situation escalated to be unsuitable for children.

However, Lin Xiufeng didn't care; he was already eighteen years old.

Besides, who isn't experienced these days?
Lin Xiufeng's focus was not on the interaction between the two people.

He was looking at the woman's hand, specifically the tip of her middle finger.

The woman's fingers gleamed with silver light.

The Heavenly Martial Power within her body was constantly gathering towards her fingertips, while the silver light within was continuously compressed and then enveloped by the gathering Heavenly Martial Power.

Although Lin Xiufeng was a newcomer who didn't understand the power of Heavenly Martial Arts, he could still see this obvious abnormality.

Lin Xiufeng was puzzled as to why Jin Dao seemed to have noticed nothing.

Too engrossed?

The woman squinted, humming softly, her hands bracing against the man's body.

Moving, moving...

Until the silver Heavenly Martial Power within her middle finger stopped flowing.

And her finger landed precisely on Jin Dao's heart.

Lin Xiufeng remembered that after the silver light in the silver sword's wrist was cut open, the Heavenly Martial Power was almost entirely absorbed by the golden knife's chest.

'Is it possible that the location of the Heavenly Martial Heart is different for everyone?'

'But...can't we see the location of the Heavenly Martial Heart simply by observing the light flowing with the Heavenly Martial Power?'

Lin Xiufeng had a question, suddenly recalling Zhao Youyue's earlier display of not being able to see the energy waves of the Heavenly Martial Power generated by the collision… 'No way… it's not normal to not be able to see it, is it? It would be abnormal if I could see it?'

If that's the case, all the questions can be answered!

As Lin Xiufeng was pondering this, he was startled to see the silver light from the woman's middle finger suddenly fly out and instantly pierce the golden knife's heart.

At the same time, the woman pushed the golden knife away, flipped over and jumped away to keep her distance.

Lin Xiufeng discovered that this woman was indeed quite attractive.

Where the silver light disappeared, flesh vanished, revealing a golden light inside.

The golden light was now covered in cracks, emitting a strong golden glow!

"Why—why!"

Jin Dao had no intention of pursuing or escaping; his face was filled with disbelief and grief, which transformed into a roar.

The woman stared at him, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

"It's too difficult to take it to the next level. You're all too preoccupied with love and romance, and you're becoming less and less motivated! It's been six months, and our strength has barely improved!"

"How many times have I told you, both openly and secretly, to be as proactive and ambitious as before? If you do that, I'd be happy to love both of you at the same time, and I'd be happy to stay with you forever!"

"Did you listen? You didn't listen at all! You keep forcing me to choose between two options, but I like both of them, how can I choose one?"

"I can't hold out any longer! I'll let you fight each other, then seize the Heavenly Martial Heart power of the victor and break through to the next level."

“You are all men I have truly loved, but the future of the Heavenly Warriors is not about being satisfied with love. Once I advance to a higher level, the Heavenly Martial Group will take the initiative to invite me to join.”

Women no longer pretend or hide anything.

Jin Dao broke down in tears, yet laughed uncontrollably, shouting:

"We're both complete fools! But you! You don't deserve to say 'I love you'! You don't deserve it—"

The sound of the golden knife abruptly stopped.

The Heavenly Martial Heart in his heart shattered.

The vast majority of the powerful Heavenly Martial Force energy that erupted was transformed into streams and absorbed entirely into the tip of the venomous woman's middle finger.

The remaining small portion transformed into dense energy waves that spread in all directions.

As this wave of energy swept past, Lin Xiufeng experienced it twice more: his entire body was filled with the power of Heavenly Martial Arts, then instantly compressed, leaving him completely empty.

Then it fills up again, then empties.

The final amount of Heavenly Martial Power absorbed exceeded the waist level.

'Four times already! Still no Heavenly Martial Heart. How many more times do I have to go through this?'

While Lin Xiufeng was overjoyed, she was also anxious about the uncertainty of her goals.

The golden knife disappeared in the same way as the silver sword.

Before the body transformed into the power of Heavenly Martial Arts and dissipated in a misty light, a ball of light within the shattered Heavenly Martial Heart vanished into thin air with a momentary distortion.

Lin Xiufeng thought that Jin Dao was just as foolish as Yin Jian. The fact that the woman immediately distanced herself after her sneak attack meant that if Jin Dao struggled to fight back, she would definitely have a chance to turn the tide.

But he insisted on asking why and listening to the woman's explanation.

So even the last chance was gone.

It's clear that the golden knife doesn't understand; rather, like the silver sword, without love, nothing matters anymore.

'In the end, the wicked woman got her way! It's the right thing to do to prevent bad people from getting away with it!'

Lin Xiufeng was quite disappointed in him.

But without those two foolish men, he wouldn't have gotten such a great deal.

Lin Xiufeng had no idea how much of an advantage he had gained; he only felt that he could easily defeat several of his former selves now.

That's how big the power increase is!
The venomous woman had been gone for quite some time, but Zhao Youyue remained squatting motionless.

If that woman hadn't gone far and discovered they'd been spying on her, she would have been furious if she'd let them off the hook!
Suddenly, Zhao Youyue sat down on the ground, looking pained.

"It's numb..."

Lin Xiufeng also sat down on the ground, rubbing her legs and saying:

"I thought I was the only one whose skin was numb."
