XIAO SHUXIANG'S
194 - Black Emperor's Mountain
"Hm? Where are all the guards..?"
Xiao Shuxiang looked astonished as he arrived at the Black Emperor Mountain ruling palace, not a single Demonic Beast he saw standing guard.
He then stepped towards the main door of the palace while calling the residents of this residence.
It was already the custom of Xiao Shuxiang making a fuss when he came, and now seeing this place quiet was definitely a strange thing.
"Heeii..?! Is there an oraang..?! Xiao Shuxiang dataang..!"
Xiao Shuxiang banged hard on the main door, but still no one replied.
Feeling annoyed, Xiao Shuxiang flowed his Qi and intended to punch the door in front of him when an attack led to him.
?!
Immediately, Xiao Shuxiang turned around and quickly resisted the attack with his fist.
A BAAAM!
A loud sound was produced as Xiao Shuxiang's fist clashed with a flat-tipped weapon that when viewed from the side was like a large black pillar with gold rings on both sides.
!!
Xiao Shuxiang was pushed back to hit the main door so hard that it even let out an explosive sound.
He continued to be pushed into the spacious room of the palace. The pillar he was holding suddenly shrank and a kick almost hit his chest, if Xiao Shuxiang did not immediately fend him off.
A BAAAM!
He could see the sharp eyes of this man who attacked him. The two exchanged attacks without saying anything.
Xiao Shuxiang's opponent appeared to be 37 years old, his body muscular with short hair sticking out a golden brown.
This man wore a clawed iron glove that was able to tear the opponent's body up to his bones with just a single strike.
Moreover, the man who was fighting Xiao Shuxiang was currently wearing a golden blue armor, his face was clean and very similar to a human.
A BAAAAM!
Xiao Shuxiang struck one of the pillars in this room violently, himself immediately rolling over as the man he was fighting with used his claw.
The pillar exploded, there were even five terrible scratches on the floor. Xiao Shuxiang was not allowed to breathe, he was again attacked with a long stick and kick from this man.
Xiao Shuxiang now retorted, with a single breath of softness.. He disappeared and suddenly appeared behind the man with his hands clenched tightly.
A BAAAM!
This man repelled Xiao Shuxiang's attack with an iron rod without turning over, he snorted softly and the next second disappeared.
!!
A BAAAM!
Black and gold light clashed endlessly at each other in this huge room. Several pillars, floors, including stairs were the victims of both stray attacks.
There were no guards or servants around the building, if only.. They would definitely immediately run to save themselves when they heard the loud sounds of fighting Xiao Shuxiang and his opponent.
A BAAAM!
One of the walls exploded from being hit by Xiao Shuxiang's kick, creating an enormous hole. He slapped the dust at his feet and shot back.
A BAAAM!
There was no conversation between these two men. All that was heard was the sound of the pounding and clashing of Xiao Shuxiang's fist when it collided with his opponent's weapon.
They fought for almost ten minutes at a speed that the eyes could not follow. The battle of the two was like wanting to kill and tear the body of the opponent, so very serious.
Only, the first Xiao Shuxiang was exhausted. His practice was too low to keep up with his opponent's speed for a long time, and he knew this man he was fighting had only expended ten percent of his strength.
!!
Xiao Shuxiang's opponent's eyes flashed, he grinned when he saw a good opportunity. The next second he gave a loud strike that made Xiao Shuxiang moan in pain.
!!
".. SAMANTHA WU..! You're Outrageous..!!"
Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his sore buttocks, his legs were even trembling and unable to stand anymore, he collapsed along with the bursting of his opponent's laughter.
"Basar the Naughty Boy..! It's not that easy to make a fuss in my territory. Now your loss is 989, a decent number..!"
Plaques
"Aargha! Less Ape..! My defeat is only 74! Seventy Four..! My memory is still very good, Uncle Wu..! Ouch.. Virginity ass..!"
Xiao Shuxiang felt his tailbone crack, he lay down for a moment while waiting for the recovery of his body. Although within five breaths, Xiao Shuxiang's body recovered.. But the pain in his ass is still there.
".. I hope my ass doesn't bleed.." Xiao Shuxiang blew his hand and rubbed it on his butt.
"Hmph, why should you be proud of your defeat, even your weakness is still in the same place.."
Plaque!
"Dark! Uncle..! You're So Outrageous..!"
Wu Yu was an ape-shaped Demonic Beast, he was the ruler of the Black Emperor Mountain. He was even older than Lui Me Tian.
Xiao Shuxiang was very familiar with this one Demonic Beast. In his first life, when he came to the Demon World, he had fought all-out with Wu Yu.
Although in the end he knew, this ape-shaped Demonic Beast had never been serious when fighting him.
Xiao Shuxiang's mischievousness was much taught by Wu Yu, the two of them even really liked making a fuss in other regions of the Demon World.
If Wu Yu could go to the Human World, it would have been a long time since the five Continents were in an uproar over his presence. Honey, only Xiao Shuxiang can go to the Demon World at will, he himself cannot take others with him.
The Blood Seal Skirt, was a move that Xiao Shuxiang had made by accident. He had read about the book of seals, and his experiments led him to create the style, which served to move him to another world.
"You haven't seen each other for a long time, instead of behaving well, you've made a scene at Brother Tian's place. You're a very naughty boy..!"
Wu Yu pulled Xiao Shuxiang's ear and told him to stand up, because of the actions of this child.. He had to hear Lui Me Tian's hospitality and nagging.
".. He said I taught you. All your faults, but why do I bear them..! You're really late, kid..!"
"I'm sorry, Uncle. At that time I panicked, where I knew Aunt Lui was venting her anger at you. Please don't pull my ears hard, Uncle.. Missing later.."
Wu Yu exhaled softly and released his hand from pulling Xiao Shuxiang's ear. Although he was upset, but on the one hand he was happy because his adoptive nephew returned.
Xiao Shuxiang had not come to see him for a long time, he told him that many new generations of Demonic Beasts did not know the name of his nephew.
"Come, talk somewhere else.."
Wu Yu took Xiao Shuxiang to his private room on the upper floor, as if he did not care about the condition of his palace which was damaged by the fight earlier.
Xiao Shuxiang told me a little about the reason he never came to the Demon World. Hearing him made Wu Yu laugh, he mocked his nephew as it got weaker.
".. You have a lot of roots in your dantian. That's very good, just think of it as sky punishment.."
Although Xiao Shuxiang was annoyed when Wu Yu laughed at him, he was also happy. The root dantian was now no longer a curse, but luck.
"So, what made you come here..? Ever since I came, I've seen you want something.."
Xiao Shuxiang nodded, he began to tell the condition of the Land of Stones and the purpose of coming here.
".. I don't mind lending you my stick, but you should return it immediately after you've finished making the well, never put it off..!"
"I understand, Uncle. You don't seem to know Xiao Shuxiang.."
The Gold Torturing Ring Wand had an unusual weight. In the Demon World, only Wu Yu could lift and use it.
As for cultivators, it was likely that only Xiao Shuxiang could. That too, he can only hold it for three minutes.
He immediately stored Wu Yu's wand into his Semestal Bracelet. This uncle of his loved to change his mind, and before that happened, Xiao Shuxiang secured the first of the staff he borrowed and asked for permission to leave immediately.
".. I actually still want to stay, it's just that my friends are waiting.."
Xiao Shuxiang said he would visit Lui Me Tian after his business was done, and return his uncle's weapons.
Wu Yu escorted Xiao Shuxiang out, his nephew's face still remained the same, yet had a different aura.
His niece who walked with him did not look as scary as before, and he felt more comfortable talking to his nephew now than in the past.
".. You've changed a lot, Xiang'Er.."
Wu Yu patted Xiao Shuxiang's back gently, telling him not to use his staff to do damage in the Human World, and that his nephew really had to return him.
"Yes, Uncle. You've said it a few times, I'll actually return it after my work is done in Tanah Batu. Don't worry, then I'll go first.."
After arriving outside, Xiao Shuxiang's body was immediately filled with a white light and then disappeared.
He reappeared where he used his Blood Seal Skirt. Xiao Shuxiang immediately darted away, he met his friends and cultivators.
Unexpectedly, he left for quite a while. It was already dark when he came from the Demon World.
?!
Xiao Shuxiang saw the cultivators and his friends were resting while gathering power back.
Without waking them up, Xiao Shuxiang began to slide Wu Yu's wand into the hole made earlier.
One end of Wu Yu's staff pierced through the ground quickly, its size changing every time Xiao Shuxiang pressed it down.
!!
Qi Xuan felt the ground tremble, not just himself.. Yet his friends and cultivators felt the same way as well. They immediately approached the origin of the vibration.
?!
The moon did not shine too much, but the light from the golden ring that was at the end of Wu Yu's staff as well as his gold carvings impressed the cultivators including Jing Mi.
!!
Xiao Shuxiang immediately pulled Wu Yu's staff, which quickly turned back to small and tall. Simultaneously, water gushed out even to the point of wetting Xiao Shuxiang's body.
Tap
Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his face slowly, not thinking that using Wu Yu's staff could be so effective.
"Brother Xiao..?!"
Jing Mi, Qi Xuan, and Hu Li walked over to Xiao Shuxiang. The three just finished being amazed by what this friend of theirs did.
Jing Mi praised Xiao Shuxiang, she couldn't help but be curious when she saw the staff her friend was holding.
"Where have you been, my brother..? Coming up like this with a new weapon surprised me. Did you go to that ancient tomb again..?"
"Brother Jing, I'm sure all the treasures in the tomb have been exhausted. No need to ask about this weapon, let's just say I borrowed it from someone. If you've had enough rest, let's continue working."
Xiao Shuxiang became excited, he invited his friends to return to work.
That night, all the villagers including the sleeping Nie Shang felt the ground tremble, yet they compared to waking up.. Even more asleep.
Not just one well, Xiao Shuxiang made another well. And with the designs that Qi Xuan made with his other cultivators.. Xiao Shuxiang made a huge hole 15 meters deep.
This hole will be filled with soil as a place to grow crops of the residents of Tanah Batu.
When viewed from above, this hole is almost the size of a large lake.
"Brother Xiao, I think we need a few more.."
"Brother Xuan, take a short break. I need more power to use this thing.."
Qi Xuan coughed softly, he forgot Xiao Shuxiang who worked more and more using that unusual heirloom.
".. Rest, Brother Xiao. I'll take care of the others.."
Xiao Shuxiang nodded, he then sat down cross-legged accompanied by Wu Yu's staff, which stood alone beside him.
"You're very heavy,"
Wu Yu's wand seemed to glow, he nudged Xiao Shuxiang's left arm, either asking this young man to return to work or returning him to the Demon World.
"Wait a minute, I still need to gather energy. You're so heavy and I don't have as much energy as Uncle Wu,"
?!
Xiao Shuxiang continued to be urged by Wu Yu's staff, he said to be given another minute. The design Qi Xuan made contained images of the forest within, clearly Xiao Shuxiang had to make an even bigger hole.
He returned to work after his break. Qi Xuan and Hu Li darted away, their second destination was a place with a dense forest.
The flying speed of Qi Xuan and Hu Li was much better than the warriors as well as Jing Mi. They could travel from the Tanah Batu resident settlement for two and a half days at a high speed.
Upon returning, Xiao Shuxiang was surprised to see Hu Li and Qi Xuan carrying a medium-sized tree that seemed to be uprooted along with its roots.
"You two.."
"It will take a long time to move some trees to replant. Moreover, Hu Li's storage bag was too narrow to hold a lot of ground.."
Qi Xuan did not have the vast Spatial Ring, and he forgot to take back his storage pouch from Xiao Shuxuang for being too hasty to leave. Now all he and Hu Li could bring were two tree trunks.
"Haaahs.. Give me your hand,"
Xiao Shuxiang asked Qi Xuan to extend his hand. As he held his brother's right hand, a golden writing moved from the arm, continued to descend, and passed into Qi Xuan's hand.
!!
"What is this, Brother Xiao..?!" Qi Xuan felt his right arm warm up, he heard Xiao Shuxiang's brief explanation and it made him shocked.
"Brother Xiao, you have a terrible inheritance.."
"That's how it is, you better hurry up and do your job. This way, you can carry a lot of stuff.."
Xiao Shuxiang unhesitatingly lent his Semestal Bracelet to Qi Xuan. He was not at all afraid of this young man carrying away his precious heirloom, as he was certain that Qi Xuan was unable to run away.
Qi Xuan and Hu Li again darted away after bidding farewell to Xiao Shuxiang. Holes and wells are all ready, just fill the hole with soil.
While waiting for Qi Xuan and Hu Li.. Xiao Shuxiang conversed with the warriors and citizens of Tanah Batu.
Qi Xuan and Hu Li had only returned after six days, far too long than usual as they had gone to another place.
!!
With a single flick of Qi Xuan, all the holes that had varying depths were now filled by the ground along with the trees.
Jing Mi, Nie Shang, and the citizens of Stone Land who saw this were stunned to the point of being unable to say anything. They were astonished at once by what had just happened.
So unreliable, some residents of Tanah Batu rubbed their eyes slowly several times, some even pinched the hard of their own cheeks.
The nine warriors from the various sects instantly looked at Qi Xuan. What is surprising is.. The young man was able to take out the hilly land, somewhere he got it.
"You guys are really cool, really awesome..! But which forest are you boys here in..?"
"Brother Xiao, this will not be finished without your help. Don't ask the woods, we're taking it in some place.."
Hu Li took out ten seed sacks, consisting of vegetable seeds and other staple crops. Together they helped the residents of Tanah Batu to try to plant the seeds in the field.
The desire of the cultivators, Jing Mi, Nie Shang, and Qi Xuan helped the citizens of the Stone Land really strong. No one was left unturned, even they planned to stay longer until the seeds began to grow.
Hu Li and Xiao Shuxiang were actually not seriously intending to help, but both of them enjoyed doing this work.
There was something that Xiao Shuxiang and Hu Li had obtained, one of which was that they were getting familiar with people they were completely unfamiliar with.
"I guess.. It's a human's ordinary life.." Hu Li said he had never felt this calm, the world of warriors was too much competition, they were always filled with bloodshed every day.
".. What do you think, Young Master?"
"Hmm, I think it's good too. But I don't want to retire as a cultivator yet, let's continue your work.."
