XIAO SHUXIANG'S
298 - Recognition II
The black-clothed youth suffered many injuries on his body, his right cheek was smashed and his left arm was gone. Not to mention the blood spurting from his head, but still the young man could still laugh and stand back up.
!!
"Who exactly is that young man?!"
"Damn it, accept my attack..!"
One of the swordsmen again made the final attack, the effect of his attack managed to make blood splatter on Xiao Shuxiang's chest. Jing Mi, Xiao Lu, and Hou Yong were seen exclaiming their brother's name.
Seeing Guardian Protector Ling Qing Zhu still standing.. A cultivator whose practice was at the Sky level gave an attack with only one index finger.
The whirlwind shot out like an arrow and right hit the left side of Xiao Shuxiang's head until it pierced into his skull. Xiao Lu and Jing Mi wanted to jump down but were both held back by Yi Wen.
"You mustn't mess up Brother Xiao's fight," Yi Wen's voice sounded cold. At a time like this.. Whoever dares not heed his warning, then the person's chest will be hollow.
Nyawm!
Lan Xiao also noticed Xiao Shuxiang, but he did not appear to be agitated at all. Lan Guan Zhi who had her lap just clenched her hands while watching every face of the person who had attacked her friend to such an extent.
"Will anyone else try it? As long as I'm still good, then try to slash my head,"
!!
It felt unbelievable, the young man who should have died was still able to speak normally. It was as if the pain she was suffering from was nothing.
"This is impossible..! Is he an Immortal?!"
"He's like a monster..!"
Xiao Shuxiang could clearly see the shocked faces of the warriors and cultivators.
He himself could feel how cold the air was entering his chest, and he could feel his blood pouring out.
One of the swordsmen without warning first, instantly launched an inevitable attack towards Xiao Shuxiang.
His actions make the ground crack while creating a crash in the dusty wind that is quite thick.
Gong Zitao, the eldest son of the Gong family, is famous for his trading business. He was also one of the Outer Sect disciples of the Sky Pagoda.
"Ling Qing Zhu is just mine. I'm the only one who deserves to be his companion,"
Gong Zitao's face was like one who had won the fight, he started to glance at the few cultivators and warriors he would target next.
It was not only Gong Zitao who thought so, but also other warriors and cultivators.. Especially those from the Black Stream.
The triumphant smile of having finished off the overbearing Guardian Protector suddenly froze.
?!
They saw a jade-red and yellow-golden glow from behind the dusty wind, the next second a loud shrill sound rang out along with a Phoenix bird streaking into the sky.
!!
All eyes were on the Phoenix spirit. Wide wings with sharp eyes. A body covered in fire, as if it could turn anyone into dust with just one flutter.
"He's not the one you should be aware of..!"
!!
The Geni Raksa was shocked when he got a sudden attack from Xiao Shuxiang. His opponent looked to be in good shape, even the left arm that had clearly broken off had now grown back.
"What are you really doing?!"
"Of course men,"
Xiao Shuxiang gave a powerful kick to the Raksa Geni until his opponent's great sword cracked. He then fought another warrior and this time it was his turn to attack.
"Fire Breathing Techniques.. The Phoenix Flame Lesbian..!"
Xiao Shuxiang's Phoenix Spirit slid down and enveloped his owner's body, the next second he shot out from the direction of the long-haired young man's sword and attacked whoever was in front of him.
A BAAAM!
Five warriors were instantly charred on the spot with standing positions, they had no time to dodge the shock attack just now.
The fight again ensued, this time Xiao Shuxiang did not let the opponent's attack give him any injuries.
CRAASH!
Fighting against many people did not make it difficult for Xiao Shuxiang at all, instead he benefited in this case, so he could attack in various directions wildly.
"Review head!"
"You're lying,"
Xiao Shuxiang jumped up and gave a kick to a swordsman who was trying to mess with his concentration.
It was not the head the swordsman was after, but Xiao Shuxiang's legs. Feeling unable to pull off a trick, he went back to using other means.
THE TRAANG!
"Praise the Paws of Rajawali..!"
A BAAAM!
A young man clucked in annoyance as his attack did not hit Xiao Shuxiang and instead hit the ground. He clenched his hands tightly and again attacked the young man.
Xiao Shuxiang targeted five people, two of whom were practical cultivators at the Red Gold level Foundation Master.
He formed the Moving Mirror Seal on using his left hand, the next second he darted into the mirror and appeared behind the target with the powerfully swinging Beheading Sword.
AACH..!
CRAASH!
Xiao Shuxiang slashed his opponent into nine pieces. He also got an attack from a Grand Master level cultivator but was successfully fended off.
"Your age is still too young to challenge Xiao Shuxiang..!"
THE TRAANG!
Xiao Shuxiang used the Fire Respiratory Technique, he made his Phoenix Spirit rise up and instantly shot up to burn some swordsmen.
Xiao Shuxiang's eye color turned red, a thin puff of smoke formed on both of his legs. He took out a Blood Control Technique that he had not used for a long time.
The Soul Restraint Seal wrapped around Xiao Shuxiang's body suddenly underwent a change, one of the chains breaking up to make Xiao Shuxiang's practice no longer readable by cultivators who were at the Immortal-level Grand Master.
All the warriors and cultivators who were in the arena could not move their bodies. In the next instant, the sounds of slashes and organs of the human body scattered everywhere.
"Brother Xiao..! Ilove you..! You are amazing..!"
Yi Wen exclaimed in excitement, he was intending to jump and help his brother slash the challengers, but Xiao Lu, Jing Mi, and Hou Yong immediately stopped him.
"Brother Wen, you don't go along with Brother Xiao..!"
"Yi Wen, you stay here..!"
Jing Mi held Yi Wen back, while Xiao Lu held her left arm. Hou Yong himself hugged his brother from the front, his face accidentally bumping into the top of Yi Wen's body.
CRAASH!
AACH..!
He could indeed blow up all of their bodies, but Xiao Shuxiang was unwilling to do so.
"Tu-wait..! Don't kill A-AAKH..!"
Xiao Shuxiang clearly did not heed the swordsman's plea before him. He wanted to be stopped by Ling Dong Hun, yet the man got a cold gaze from Ling Lang Tian.
Swordsmen and cultivators who were still on the ledge and did not come up against Xiao Shuxiang seemed to hold their breath.
Regardless of what technique the young man used until all his opponents were sculpted and unable to move, they were clearly lucky not to have looked for trouble with Protective Guardian Ling Qing Zhu.
Raksa Geni tried to break away, he even growled strongly, but still his body was unable to move. By the time Xiao Shuxiang's beheading sword reached him, he had already resigned himself to his fate.
Raksa Geni closed his eyes tightly, but three seconds had passed - his heart rate could still be heard. Carefully, he began to open his eyes.
!!
The first thing Raksa Geni saw was the smiling face of Xiao Shuxiang. He felt his hair goosebumps because he saw the look of the young man whose face was filled with the splash of thick blood.
"What are you.. Scared?"
Xiao Shuxiang's voice made the Geni Raksa's heart stop beating for a while, before spurting out a beat. He also felt like his heart was about to come out of his ears, clearly this young man was the most dangerous person he had ever met.
Xiao Shuxiang left around twenty of his opponents, he only killed warriors and cultivators whose scent of lies was concentrated.
He planted the beheading sword Surya Loka, since the fight.. He did not flow Qi into his weapon, so you could say.. He has not used all his strength since.
Xiao Shuxiang had suddenly disappeared and appeared right in front of Ling Qing Zhu. His presence was unconscious and clearly made everyone shocked.
Unpermissioned, he pulled the hand of the white-haired girl, carried her and instantly appeared in front of the warriors and cultivators who were still standing stiffly.
!!
Ling Qing Zhu himself could not believe Xiao Shuxiang's behavior. He clearly held his breath and felt that this was not the real thing.
"Listen. As long as I'm still the Guardian Protector of the White Cat, don't expect you to be able to touch let alone possess her.."
Ling Qing Zhu could feel the tremors on Xiao Shuxiang's chest while talking. He also heard the heartbeat of this young man who was clearly racing.
He noticed the face of this young man who was carrying him up close, he could see a lot of blood splashing on Xiao Shuxiang's right cheek.
The warriors and cultivators had detached from Xiao Shuxiang's Blood Control Technique. They were no longer trying to fight back, this was because the one who unleashed the technique was its own owner.
".. If you want to challenge me, think carefully. I recognize the faces and voices of all of you, so there's no second chance of life for you to stand up to me."
Xiao Shuxiang stared for a moment at Ling Qing Zhu and returned his gaze to the warriors as well as cultivators, both before him.. Not even those on the ledge.
".. The White Cat is mine, so I won't give it to anyone. Dare to take it from me, you'll die."
!!
Yi Wen involuntarily opened his mouth wide, it was the inaugural acknowledgement of his Brother Xiao. "I-I must have misheard, my ears might have caught the sound wrong. It is impossible that my brother would say that.. Can't be.."
"Yi Wen, I heard it clearly. Finally Brother Xiao said that as well, since long ago I have been watching his movements.." Jing Mi put both of her hands behind her head as she recounted the time when Ling Qing Zhu was still a hostage in the Sky Sword Sect.
".. My brother often looks for trouble with Miss Ling just so that the girl doesn't forget about him. Brother Xiao did not know how to be romantic, he showed his affection in a derogatory manner and acted mischievously towards Miss Ling. Poor my future Brother-in-law.."
"Brother Jing, I disagree with your opinion. Brother Xiao always acted mischievously and insulted anyone, not that he liked them. You won't be able to understand Brother Xiao's way of thinking.."
Hou Yong's gaze never escaped from the fighting arena, he continued to pay attention to Xiao Shuxiang who was still carrying Ling Qing Zhu. Meanwhile, Xiao Lu who was standing next to him was visibly staring at Lan Guan Zhi.
The white-clothed youth looked solemnly staring towards Xiao Shuxiang. Faintly, he seemed to be smiling.
At Ling Lang Tian's own place.. Some family representatives rebuked him. They felt that Xiao Shuxiang was no match for Protective Guardian Ling Qing Zhu because his actions in killing were too wild.
".. He would scare everyone and stay away from her. Qing Zhu'Er would also feel depressed while with him. You must send the strongest young man who can kill that man,"
"Auntie, you don't understand. Shuxiang made himself look arrogant and cruel was so that no one else would dare to pose a challenge to him. He did this to preserve the honor of my brother who should not be treated as a clan bet object. Does Aunt understand now?"
Ling Lang Tian stared coldly at the 40-year-old woman. His voice was cold and contained firmness.
He dared to say that because he was his father's temporary successor, so all decisions were in his hands.
".. Shuxiang was the only young man who treated my brother as a human, in my time.. Who is his own brother.. Never cared about Qing Zhu'Er."
Ling Lang Tian stood up and started to step away, he felt that there was no need to close the event anymore as the spectators were gone. As he walked, his gaze was always on Xiao Shuxiang and Ling Qing Zhu.
"Sorry for making your clothes dirty," Xiao Shuxiang's voice sounded soft, he was actually a bit nervous, this was the first time he was holding a mature girl from the front.
"Hm? Wait for. I've held this girl before, so it's the second time.."
"Mrs.. When'd you.. Will drop me?"
For Ling Qing Zhu, this was the second time he had been carried by Xiao Shuxiang. But still, he is not ordinary. He was nervous to the point of breaking out in cold sweat, yet his calm face could still cover everything.
"I'm hungry.. Don't you want to take me around the city where you live? Actually I should take you because I'm a man. But I don't know this city very well, we're lost."
If noticed well, Xiao Shuxiang was not at all scary-looking. Ling Qing Zhu at a glance did not see the splash of blood on this young man's cheeks, but rather a clean, innocent face.
"Hows it? Want to take me around or not? You've been quiet ever since, are you scared?"
"No. I'll take you, but put me down,"
Instead of being taken down, Xiao Shuxiang instead walked away while continuing to carry him. Xiao Qing Yan and Hu Li who had been silent since then felt that their friend had a world of their own while being with Ling Qing Zhu.
".. Young Master Xiao did not even care about his challengers and Master did not greet his friends either. He changed so far just because he was with Miss Ling.." Hu Li shook his head slowly, over his head.. Zhan did the same.
"I hope he doesn't forget his mission that should take me to the Southern Continent. If he forgets it, I'll kill the girl,"
Xiao Qing Yan was so serious in his words, he even took out a katana from void space and then held it tightly. His shoulder was immediately patted softly by Hu Li.
"Miss Qing Yan, Master Mudaku will not forget that. What if we catch up with him? Let's stop Young Master from getting close to Miss Ling,"
Yi Wen heard Hu Li's last sentence, she had just gotten a new spirit. "As long as Brother Xiao is not married, then the opportunity is still wide open for me.."
Yi Wen immediately jumped down from the ledge and caught up with Xiao Shuxiang, Jing Mi and Hou Yong following him from behind.
"I won't let Xiao'Er, either, pity my sister-in-law.."
Xiao Lu looked at Lan Guan Zhi and then jumped down from the ledge. He got a soft belt from the young man on the forehead.
Not a few warriors and cultivators held grudges against Xiao Shuxiang, one of them was Gong Zitao. He had steadied his heart to avenge Xiao Shuxiang's deeds and make Ling Qing Zhu his.
In addition to the fighting arena, the spectator bench also suffered damage. In addition to all that, a young man still faithfully sat on his stool even though the surroundings had become rubble.
The young man was dressed in light green with a bamboo leaf pattern. He has a clean face and looks like an ordinary young man, but if he is considered more deeply.. The look in his eyes was hiding something.
His lips began to be attracted to form a thin smile, the young man who looked 19 years old then stood up and then stepped away.
No one noticed him, he had done nothing since. He watched the fight from start to finish. It was just that his faint smile made anyone feel troubled.
