Chapter 722 Snow Hair

The night breeze suddenly rose.

Blizzard poured down.

A murderous aura surged in the black-robed woman's eyes.

She looked at the youth in front of her, her entire body filled with killing intent. Her exposed hands clenched into fists, and her veins burst out. A large amount of power began to gather in her body. In the next moment, or at any moment, that power would surge out of her body in an instant, shattering the youth in front of her into pieces.

Another black-clothed man standing not far away looked at the scene with interest. He raised his eyebrows as if he was very curious about what would happen next.

Only Xu Han, who was locked onto by the woman's killing intent, had a calm expression.

He also stared at the woman, allowing the power surging out of her body to scratch his clothes, but his long hair did not do anything to counter it. He seemed to be very certain that this woman would not attack him, at least not now.

In fact, his confidence was clearly not empty. Just as the aura was about to condense into the woman's body, the aura around her suddenly poured down, and the violent energy instantly dissipated.

Along with this imposing aura, Ran Qingyi's murderous aura that had almost condensed into substance between his eyebrows also dissipated.

At that time, her entire body collapsed like a leather pouch that had been deflated.

"Sigh …"

She suddenly sighed. It was the kind of sigh that was wrapped in deep helplessness and guilt.

Then, she looked at Xu Han again, her eyebrows no longer filled with Ling Lie's killing intent. Instead, she carried a bitter pleading intent. "Maybe I really did something wrong," she said. "I did it too quickly, too quickly. But I had no choice, no choice."

But this time, you really can't win. As long as you promise me to bring Chu Chouli back, I will definitely do my best to protect your friends after this war. I don't dare to say that I can definitely do it, but I, Ran Qingyi, can swear to the heavens that as long as I can, I will spare no effort to take care of every friend of yours at that time.

When she said this, Ran Qingyi's expression was resolute and her tone was loud. It was difficult for anyone to doubt the authenticity of her words.

This seemed to be a good suggestion for Xu Han.

After all, the outcome of this battle was hard to predict, or perhaps Ran Qingyi's Dark Asura Palace had an overwhelming advantage. If they were lucky enough to win, Chu Chouli would naturally be fine. If the Dark Asura Palace defeated them and Ran Qingyi took care of them, Chu Chouli should not have to worry about his life. This did not seem to be an unacceptable thing. At least, after his death, the remaining people would still have a way to survive for the time being.

But strangely, Xu Han shook his head decisively at the first moment without even thinking about it.

At that moment, the portion Ran Qingyi had forcefully endured collapsed with Xu Han's shake of his head.

She asked angrily, "Why? He can't help you anymore. Why must you let him go into this dangerous situation? Isn't it good to let him live?"

Compared to before, Xu Han's eyebrows suddenly sank when he heard this. His eyes were filled with determination that was no less than Ran Qingyi's. He stared at the woman and said word by word, "Because some things are already doomed, and neither you nor I can change them."

"From the moment you joined the Dark Asura Palace, Chu Chouli was destined to die!"



Xu Han ruthlessly rejected Ran Qingyi's suggestion. This was naturally a cruel result for Ran Qingyi, but it was also not an easy task for Xu Han.

Even after Ran Qingyi left disappointedly, he stayed where he was for a long time, motionless and silent.

The black-clothed man on the side was quite tactful. He saw Xu Han's abnormal state and did not step forward immediately. He just stood quietly on the side without making any disturbances.

Only after several tens of breaths did Xu Han recover from that state did he walk to Xu Han.

"Who are you?" When Xu Han reacted, he frowned and looked at the black-clothed man.

The black-clothed man did not answer Xu Han's question, but Xu Han could feel that the other party's eyes wrapped under his hood seemed to be looking him up and down.

Xu Han did not like to be watched like this, so his brows furrowed even deeper at that time. However, before he could ask, the black-clothed man suddenly took out something from his bosom and handed it to Xu Han.

Xu Han was stunned for a moment. He looked over and saw that it was actually a wine bottle.

Obviously, Xu Han did not expect the black-clothed man to hand over this item. He couldn't help but be stunned, so he didn't immediately reach out to receive it.

"What? Are you afraid that this wine is poisonous?" The black-clothed man teased, his tone somewhat provocative.

Naturally, Xu Han would not be provoked by him, but he also understood that it was impossible for such a low-level method as poisoning to escape the eyes of an immortal like him. Therefore, he still reached out his hand and took the wine jug. After a slight consideration, he noticed that the wine jug was filled with wine.

He simply opened the bottle of wine and lowered his head to smell it. The fragrance of the wine was overflowing. It was really a pot of good wine. In a world like this, there weren't many such drinks. If Chu Chouli bumped into them, he would probably have to snatch them and drink a big mouthful without caring about it.

On the other side, the black-clothed man took out another jug of wine from his bosom. Similarly, he pulled off the seal on the wine bottle like Xu Han. Then, he raised the wine bottle and gestured to Xu Han. At that moment, Xu Hanyi let go of his worries and respected the black-clothed man. At that moment, the two of them raised their heads and drank heavily in the ice and snow, swallowing half of the wine in a bottle into their stomachs.

After drinking, the black-robed man actually laughed loudly and said, "Happy, happy. It has been a long time since I drank so happily!"

Xu Han looked at the black-robed man with a calm gaze. He didn't accept his words and whispered, "Your Excellency wants to drink wine. I'll drink with you. Then shouldn't you show some sincerity and tell me your purpose?"

"Brother Xu is still a straight-forward person. I have seen so many people along the way, but in the end, everyone is changing. Only Brother Xu remains unchanged. I really admire him." That person also didn't answer Xu Han's question directly, but rather madly sighed.

But Brother Xu's address made Xu Han seem to have realized something. He looked at the black-robed man in front of him again. He seemed to have thought of something at that moment. A light flashed between his eyebrows as he said, "It's you … What are you doing here?"

The man seemed to have expected Xu Han to guess his identity. He was not surprised at all. He only stopped speaking arrogantly at that time. Then, his voice sank and he said again, "I have brought you the key Brother Xu wanted to find."

After saying that, the man stretched out his hand and took off his hood.

At that time, the night breeze rose.

As a result, her long white hair suddenly rose up like the night snow, almost fusing with the flying snow in the sky.
