The Good for Nothing Seventh Young Lady - Chapter 1041
Chapter 1041 – This Isn’t A Date (1)
“I will definitely prove it to you.” Duan Hen narrowed his eyes.
“Then I will leave now. I wish you a successful match tomorrow.” Shen Yanxiao waved her hand. The trip tonight
had really brought her a lot of surprises.
Duan Hen was very clever and courageous. If he could really do what he said, then he would be a good ally.
Shen Yanxiao dropped an ambiguous answer and quietly left the Falling Moon Pond.
Duan Hen gazed at the calm water of the pond and secretly clenched his fists.
There was only one chance; he would never miss it.
……
On the way back, Shen Yanxiao looked at the gloomy night sky. With the dark clouds covering the sky, there was no
starlight that could be seen above the Barren Land.
“Xiu, do you think Duan Hen can do it?” Shen Yanxiao strolled along the empty street and asked for Xiu’s opinion.
‘He is clever, and he has enough courage; if he can use it properly, he can turn into a formidable person.’ Xiu’s
evaluation could be considered quite a compliment.
“I think so too. Leaving aside why his father, Duan Wuya, died without a word… given the fact that he could sign a
contract with the Redflame Beast at a young age, I think he’s not really a person of no particular talent. Moreover,
he knows how to carefully weigh a person’s words and closely watch one’s expression; he knows my ambitions with
regards to the Barren Land, and also knows what can move me.” Shen Yanxiao was in a good mood. For the first
time, she was aware of her ultimate goal. This kind of “meeting one’s match” was not bad at all.
What she wanted was a country of her own where there was not any restrictions and no one could command her.
Anyone who wanted to target her would turn into ashes under her blows.
To protect herself and safeguard her family and companions, she must become powerful.
“Xiu, would you like to come out and walk? The Barren Land is very pitiful, but it doesn’t feel bad.” Shen Yanxiao
suddenly wanted Xiu to come out and walk with her. No one would appear at night in Twilight City. It would also
be good for Xiu to come out and relieve his boredom. After seeing Xiu’s corporeal body so often, Shen Yanxiao had
subconsciously forgotten the fact that Xiu was still just a soul and practically treated him as a real person.
Xiu did not immediately agree to Shen Yanxiao’s invitation, but after awhile, he turned into a black mist and
appeared beside Shen Yanxiao.
Looking at Xiu clad in white, with his long black hair trailing over his shoulders, Shen Yanxiao suddenly smiled.
“Do you think if I yell at the street right now, it will wake up a lot of residents of Twilight City? If they see you, will
they think that a god has descended in this world?” Looking at Xiu’s pair of golden eyes, Shen Yanxiao smilingly
asked.
The symbol of the God Race.
Raising his hand, Xiu lightly placed his slender fingers in front of his eyes, then the dazzling golden color of his
eyes faded away, turning his golden eyes into black in an instant. Xiu became even more like a handsome man who
had not been tainted by dust. Even if he just stood in place, he could make all people hold their breath.
“Yell then.”
“…” Shen Yanxiao pursed her lips. This guy still had no sense of humor.
“Do you think there will come a day when the dark clouds of the Barren Land will dissipate?” Working on The
Rising Sun City, Shen Yanxiao had not seen the real sky for quite a while now. She intended to develop power in the
Barren Land and did not know for how long she would not see the sun or the moon.
“Do you want them to be dispersed?” Xiu threw a faint glance at Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao nodded. She was not a mushroom that grew in a dark and humid area and naturally wanted to undergo
some photosynthesis.
Xiu raised his head and looked at the dark clouds above. He slowly lifted his hand, and a white lotus blossomed in
his palm. After a moment, the white petals of the lotus scattered and turned into pieces of light, flying to the sky.
