XIAO SHUXIANG'S

126 - Attacking the Demon Wolf Sect [Revised]

At Duan De's place, Xiao Shuxiang with a serious face continued to forge swords.

Duan De hit his back with a long crossbar because Xiao Shuxiang did not look like normal.

"You shall not forge with a face like that or your sword will never be..!" Duan De said, "The sword forged in anger will only make the sword weak."

"I'm not angry, Grandpa Long Beard. This is my expression when I'm serious..! Stop bothering me and just sit down and drink your wine." Xiao Shuxiang was so meticulously paying attention to the iron in his place, he would forge according to his own understanding.

Duan De watched Xiao Shuxiang while sitting down and enjoying the Dazed Child Arak.

Instantly he spouted out the wine as he saw Xiao Shuxiang take out five Phoenix Lanterns, two bottles of red liquid, one bottle of milky white liquid, and one bottle of liquid, a lump of flesh and a pair of bat-like wings on his Spatial Ring.

"NO?! What Do You Want to Do With Those Things?!" Duan De immediately approached Xiao Shuxiang with a look of surprise on his eyes and face.

"Hmph, if the Sky Sword Sect does not give their inheritance swords to my eight friends, then I alone will make a sword for them..!"

!!

Duan De looked at Xiao Shuxiang deeply, he felt that there was a strong determination in this child.

Duan De, "Fusing the Phoenix Lantern cannot be careless and it takes a long time to be able to fuse it with the basic materials of a sword maker. You're..."

Xiao Shuxiang looked at Duan De with a smile. Duan De gasped, he sensed that Xiao Shuxiang knew the fastest way to fuse the Phoenix Lantern including cultivating it.

"You said your friend was eight, but your Phoenix Lantern was only five. Aren't you short of three more lanterns..?"

"I can find the rest later." Xiao Shuxiang stuffed one Phoenix Lantern into the fire and also added his blue flame.

Duan De rubbed his long beard, "Hmm... Actually I also have the Phoenix Lantern. But---"

"You Have it?! Whereabouts?! Give It to me?!" Xiao Shuxiang aligned his body with Duan De.

He held onto both of Duan De's shoulders while shaking them, he requested that this Long Bearded Grandfather give the Phoenix Lantern to him.

"Tu-Wait a minute, boy! Stop wiggling me..!"

"All right..!" Xiao Shuxiang released Duan De, he looked at him with sparkling eyes.

"Before I give it, you must fulfill my request.." Duan De smiled widely while raising his eyebrows.

"Huh, so you want a relationship like this.. All righty! What do you want..!" Xiao Shuxiang changed his attitude, he then stood up while displaying a serious face.

Duan De patted Xiao Shuxiang's waist, he was just jokingly doing it.

Duan De knew very well the nature of this boy, the relationship because it was mutually beneficial was the relationship that Xiao Shuxiang disliked the most.

"I heard that the Silver Bamboo Sect was attacked, is it possible that you did this have something to do with the sect?"

Xiao Shuxiang thought for a moment before confirming. He told Hai Feng and Bao Yu what he had heard to Duan De.

".. I don't want my residence to be attacked first."

"I understand. But son, your actions will be very dangerous. If the Silver Bamboo Sect alone managed to defeat them, what about your sect?! I'm not sure your sect can survive.."

Xiao Shuxiang smiled as he shook his head, "My friends aren't that weak. I know what the Demon Wolf Sect is like and I only need to be helped by my eight brothers. So how? Do you want to give it or not..? I don't have much time, Grandpa Long Beard!"

"All right, wait here." Duan De walked over to retrieve his Phoenix Lantern. He smiled, unconsciously.. Xiao Shuxiang was doing a favor. He only hoped that the boy would not exterminate the entire Demon Wolf Sect cultivators.

Duan De turned out to have three Phoenix Lanterns, Xiao Shuxiang was so happy while saying that he loved Grandpa Long Beard.

"But I want you to answer my question, where did you get Arak Son Linglung? I always looked for it in the wine making and asked it in the Branch of the Peacock Stork Association, but did not find the wine. They don't even know that kind of wine.."

Xiao Shuxiang gave a smile, "I don't want to tell you even if I get paid ten Phoenix Lanterns once. You better not think about it and try to find it, Grandpa. Or I won't bring it back for you.."

!!

Duan De was surprised, he did not want to part with his wine. He promised he would never do it again.

Xiao Shuxiang smiled, he then forged his Phoenix Lantern. Duan De helped Xiao Shuxiang forge. The two work together very seriously.

In just three days, Xiao Shuxiang and Duan De managed to make eight swords of varying sizes and shapes.

Xiao Shuxiang did the final forging. Previously Xiao Shuxiang had managed to create a sword that had a normal shape, arguably.. He had successfully forged a sword.

There was something interesting about Xiao Shuxiang. When he managed to forge a sword from the many failures he did, then his success will continue to repeat itself even better than before.

Not only did he manage to forge, but Xiao Shuxiang's sword intent belonged to a high-level heirloom, his talent of becoming a Sword Forging came into view.

Xiao Shuxiang immersed his forged sword into the liquid that Duan De found strange. He did not know what liquid it was and Xiao Shuxiang was also unwilling to tell him.

"Son, don't you show that nasty smile..! You gave me goosebumps..!"

Xiao Shuxiang did not listen to Duan De, his gaze continued to stare at the red-colored viscous liquid that was inside the pot. He stuffed the lump of meat into the pot until the color of the liquid turned black.

Later that night, Xiao Shuxiang returned to the Butterfly Sect and gathered his eight brothers.

Feng Ying, "Brother Xiao, the preparations are not finished yet.. Need wa-"

"No need, let Grandpa continue his preparations.." Xiao Shuxiang interrupted Feng Ying's remark and then said that he wanted to give them something.

"First of all, you should praise me for working hard for your development..! Never had Xiao Shuxiang done this before, just so long as you knew that!?"

!!

"Brother Xiao, this is.."

"For you guys..!" Xiao Shuxiang smiled, he picked up one wrapped sword and threw it at Jing Mi.

When Jing Mi opened the cloth, she found two swords with black blades that resembled each other.

".. You're fit to wear two swords, Brother Jing."

Jing Mi was so happy to get a new sword, her hand was comfortable holding this sword and somehow she felt a close relationship with the sword in both hands.

"... But.. I feel there is less. Brother Xiao, do you mind if I use my sword a little?"

?!

"Hm? Whatever you do, it's yours." Xiao Shuxiang was astonished, indeed Jing Mi will give a decoration like what on her sword?!

Jing Mi smiled widely and immediately ran out, she left Xiao Shuxiang and her brothers looking confused.

Xiao Shuxiang then shook his head, he then threw a wrapped sword at Bao Yu.

This sword was larger in size than the others, Xiao Shuxiang called it the Beheading Sword.

Zhi Shu obtained the Sword Needle, a sword with a small blade. Yi Wen and Ro Wei had gotten such a flexible sword, yet Ro Wei's sword had four blades.

Feng Ying herself obtained the Double Handheld Sword, while Hai Feng got the Twin Celurit.

"Hou Yong, this is yours!" Xiao Shuxiang gave Hou Yong the final bundle of swords.

This sword belongs to the twin swords, but the tip is similar to the claw of a praying mantis. Hou Yong clucked in admiration with his sword.

Xiao Shuxiang asked his friends to adjust to their new swords. When out of the room.. Xiao Shuxiang was startled by the appearance of Jing Mi's sword whose blade was like a small cog.

Jing Mi with a wide smile revealed the result of her actions which left Xiao Shuxiang's mouth wide open.

!!

"Sa-Brother Jing?! What are you doing with your sword?!"

"Brother Xiao, this is just my style..!"

Xiao Shuxiang clenched both hands, he was already tired of forging swords for Jing Mi and his brother instead..

"Haaahs.. It's up to you, Brother Jing.." Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his face, he then asked Jing Mi to practice.

When the sunlight started to appear, Xiao Shuxiang with his eight companions began to prepare. They wore the uniform of the Butterfly Sect and darted up the flying sword towards the Black Stream region that existed in the Empire of the Rising Sun.

It took Xiao Shuxiang and his friends a whole day to reach their destination.

Xiao Shuxiang had once taught his friends to fly without the aid of a sword, yet his eight brothers were still learning.

The Black Stream Region in the Empire of the Rising Sun was filled with cliffs and mountains that looked so pointed.

The grass and trees in this place are mostly blackish purple, even the soil and rocks are the same color.

The headquarters of the Demon Wolf Sect was apparently still in the same place as Xiao Shuxiang's first life, which was under the foot of a mountain called Bloody Mist.

One of the oldest mountains in the Empire of the Rising Sun. The appearance of the Demon Wolf Sect was much better and also quite large, the disciples Xiao Shuxiang and his friends saw were mostly at Forging Qi level 7 to 9.

Xiao Shuxiang took out one little blue flame, he told the flame to find out the whereabouts of GrandElder and the strongest cultivator of the Demon Wolf Sect.

The blue flame immediately disappeared upon getting the order. Xiao Shuxiang started to stare at his friends.

"I want to see your sword skills. Remember, you attack as hard as you can and do not consider your opponent weak..!"

"We understand, Brother Xiao..!"

Not long after, a small blue flame appeared near Xiao Shuxiang, he informed that the Grand Elder of the Demon Wolf Sect along with his strongest cultivators were heading to where the Butterfly Sect was located.

Jing Mi, Hou Yong, and his brothers were shocked. Yet Xiao Shuxiang remained calm. "Hmph, do they think Mother Mountain can be entered just like that..?! Huh! This is why I am in a relationship with the First Patriarch and the Third Patriarch.."

Xiao Shuxiang said the Butterfly Sect would be fine, but it was the Demon Wolf Sect that would be bad.

"Listen! Whoever you kill, don't leave their bodies intact..!"

Yi Wen nodded happily, he was already impatient to try his new sword. Xiao Shuxiang started to signal, and immediately darted along with his eight companions.

One of the cultivators of the Demon Wolf Sect who was on guard had only noticed the arrival of the intruder when he sensed the incomparably strong Swordsman Aura.

As he looked up at the sky, his body had surprisingly been cut into five pieces. The blood spurted so heavily and soaked the uniform of the person who had given him the slash.

"One is right." Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his blood-stained cheeks and chin, he saw that the eight of his friends were also doing the same.

The reason their presence was not realized was because Xiao Shuxiang had once taught his eight friends how to eliminate the air of existence, even though it could only last for ten breaths.

But all of this was enough to make a surprise attack.
