XIAO SHUXIANG'S
345 - Masked Young Fox II
No one knew how vast the place within Xiao Shuxiang's Universal Bracelet was, but one thing was certain.. This place is like an artificial world.
Well, at first there was only a field, but it was not impossible that one day Xiao Shuxiang would plant many trees to truly create his own personal world.
OH, BAAAM..!
Xiao Qing Yan dodged the attack from the Moon Tiger, he was currently indeed being assisted in training by Lan Xiao and one of Xiao Shuxiang's little blue flames.
Rraoo..!
Lan Xiao's growling sound produced an attack like a sword slash. Xiao Qing Yan repelled the attack by wearing his short katana.
A whirlwind and a thumping sound came back when Lan Xiao's attack clashed with Xiao Qing Yan's sword blade.
No one had spoken so far, they were both so focused on subverting the opponent. Xiao Shuxiang's little blue flames occasionally shot out and attacked the nearly 11-year-old.
Baaam..!
In this vast place apparently also lived six horses, unfortunately they like to wander and just returned to the building where Elder Da Lin's coffin was when they felt like eating.
Either Xiao Shuxiang realized this or not.. But his six horses were already mighty horses and stronger than any horse in general.
In addition to body size, the skin color on these six horses appears to change slightly. There are three that are brown, but with a red mane.
Two horses are black with a mane like night, while the smallest horse has a red mane in addition to the color of his skin which is also black.
Due to the abundance of pure Qi in this place, then the horses that were originally ordinary beasts were now transformed into Demonic Beasts.
They now had a Demonic Core, and their might was further increased by eating the Xiao Shuxiang herbal plant.
Baaam..!
The sound of the fight between Xiao Qing Yan and the Moon Tiger made these horses realize the existence of other creatures besides them. But the horses didn't seem to care much about it.
Just look, they are happily running around and like they are racing to be the fastest.
The distinctive sound that the six horses gave off seemed to prove that they liked this place very much.
At the time Xiao Shuxiang was training..
In the Middle Continent, precisely in the Skull-Squared-Dragon Party the blood red-clothed fox had made the party the headquarters of the Blood Scarlet.
With the help of the Six Swordsmen of the Black Shadow and Gong Zitao.. The fox-masked youth had recruited many wandering warriors from the Black Stream, one of whom was the Golden Axe Swordsman.
Who does not recognize the Golden Axe Swordsman? He was a long-lived man, with his body muscles as hard as rocks. He is a traveler, but wherever he is.. His hands were never dried from blood.
It was very difficult actually for Sri Anyar and his five brothers to recruit the Gold Axe Swordsman, they had to fend off his three attacks first.. Then I can talk.
And it was worth knowing, that a single attack full of power from the Gold Axe Swordsman was able to kill a cultivator whose practice was at the Mortal Level GrandMaster.
There were actually many warriors and strong cultivators in the Middle Continent, even their existences were more numerous compared to the warriors in the Eastern Continent.
If you want to explain more.. Cultivators in the Eastern Continent whose practices were at the Sky Level GrandMaster were not up to 5 people. It was much different from those in the Middle Continent.
The strength of the Cultivators and Swordsmen in the Eastern Continent was indeed much reduced. This was due to the many chaos that occurred to the point that several events killed cultivators whose practices were so high.
The lives of the warriors could not be separated from the sound of weapons and the smell of blood. Many battles have separated children from their parents, husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, including teachers and students.
One may wish for peace, but while pride is still on the head and vengeance still envelops the human heart.. The hope of peace is impossible.
Among the continents that exist, it is likely that only the Eastern Continent is now at peace. The Black Stream and White Stream did not clash with each other, they focused on reshaping the power lost due to the war against the Scarlet Shadow and the Wyvern dragon back then.
But in truth, this was all just a matter of time until the tension of those two Streams would again begin. It's just that, when you look at the lives of the residents in the Eastern Continent now.. This place is far from a hidden threat.
Well yeah.. That is true, because the threat is currently in another continent. They are setting up forces to start a chaos that will probably be the cause of the great change on the continent.
'Qian Kun', that is the name that the fox-masked youth mentioned to the Elder of the Skull Sword Party. When wearing a mask, his voice is for men. But when the mask is opened, her face is clearly female and her voice turns feminine.
He was the one who founded the 'Shadow Carlet' in the Eastern Continent, and was now building his new group.. 'Blood Carlet's'.
The Wyvern Dragon was actually just one of the pawns he needed to achieve his original goal, and right now.. He's setting up his new pawns.
When asking about the identity of the Scarlet Shadow Elder to Hu Li, Tianqi Mao, Siu Yixin, or Shao Nu.. Then they would definitely say, 'Not Too Convinced'.
The true identity of the Scarlet Shadow Elders is uncertain, because when meeting Siu Yixin alone.. He appeared with the appearance of a bearded old man.
Sometimes he met his pillars with the appearance of a girl, a child, including a handsome young man. 'Qian Kun' is indeed a mysterious figure who has the ability to change the face.
Ahhhh..!
The sound of a stifled cry rang out, it came from one of the dark rooms present in the Skull Sword Party.
Faintly in the dark.. A hand gripped someone's neck. From the roaring screams, the victim was apparently a man.
["Qian Kun, what are you doing?"]
?
["..."]
The person asked by Sri Anyar did not reply at all, he just kept silent while continuing to firmly grip the neck of the man who was apparently one of the Swordsman of the Skull Sword Party.
["Qian Kun.?"]
Sri Anyar approached, slowly the light from his torch illuminated the black-robed figure wearing the blood-red fox mask.
Ahhhh..!
?!
Sri Anyar's eyes were rounded when he saw the swordsman's face gripped by Qian Kun turned jet black with a thin body just wrapped in skin.
["Why are you doing this Qian Kun?"]
Sri Anyar asked again, and this time Qian Kun started to release his grip to make the body of the swordsman from the Skull Sword Party fall down with such a terrible face.
Sri Anyar had difficulty swallowing saliva, he could tell that the swordsman was no longer alive. I don't know what was wrong with the swordsman until Qian Kun killed him,
[".. I really don't understand your way of thinking. You killed six warriors before and now you do it again?! What does all this mean Qian Kun?"]
["There's no particular reason, let's just say we need an army of the undead. They could make the warriors troubled,"] Qian Kun smiled from behind his mask, with a slight swing of his hand.. The corpse of the Skull Sword Party swordsman began to disappear.
["If you only need a corpse, I can find a lot for you. You don't have to kill like this, what you kill is our own people"]
Sri Anyar is a contract killer and he is a ruthless swordsman, but he will never kill his own comrades for no apparent reason. And to be honest, the reason Qian Kun just now was unacceptable to him.
[".. If Raka Daksa sees this, she'll be mad at you.."]
["Hmh, no problem. Compared to that.. What about your job?"]
Sri Anyar walked to one corner of the room to light the lantern, he made this room brighter before answering a question from Qian Kun.
["I've told him, just like you said. But as you know, that guy's very hard to persuade. If he keeps forcing her to join us, he might turn into an enemy,"]
["Alright, I didn't expect it too much either. Let Raka Daksa get out of her training and we'll start making moves,"]
!!
Sri Anyar knew very well the reason why the Blood Scarlet was formed and established cooperation with the Skull Sword Party.
They had the same target, 'Xiao Shuxiang'. Other than to avenge the young man, they also intended to destroy the most influential big sect in the Middle Heaven Empire.
The black-robed, fox-masked young man walked to a long table in one corner of the room. He picked up the sword neatly stored on the table and threw it at Sri Anyar.
!
Reflexively Sri Anyar caught the sword, he asked why he was given the sword, let alone the sword in his hand this was a weapon taken at the auction some time ago.
["The Soul Freezing Sword is now yours, you better deserve it,"]
!!
Sri Anyar of course gasped when he heard Qian Kun's words, he watched the sword in his hand carefully and then weighed the weight of the sword.
["You sure you gave it to me.?"]
["Of course. You'd better train with that sword from now on,"]
Qian Kun also said that if there was nothing that Sri Anyar wanted to convey anymore, then he would leave.
Indeed this room was his room, but actually Qian Kun had never stayed over let alone settled in this place, he only occasionally came to make sure all the plans he had prepared went well.
["You can eat before you go, I'll get it ready for you soon,"]
Sri Anyar said goodbye and started walking towards the door. The black-robed young man with a bloodred fox mask was staring at Sri Anyar's back which was getting further away.
He finally started removing the mask on his face, this time Qian Kun looked like a 19-year-old young man. His clean face began to be attracted and formed a thin smile.
Qian Kun turned around and then walked towards the window, he looked at the sky that had apparently been decorated with the moon.
The night sky with stargazing is so beautiful, looks dazzling, contains calm and peace. Truly, everyone will never get tired of looking at how perfect this sight looks.
"This will be the last, Xiao Shuxiang.. No matter how hard you try, no matter how deep your relationship with humans is, you will never be able to escape your destiny.."
Qian Kun suddenly just let out a slow snort, he smiled with the look of his eyes that continued to point towards the sky.
".. The reason for your existence is only to get stronger and then.. Destroying everything."
Along with Qian Kun's last words.. Xiao Shuxiang who was in the Tianqi Mao residence and was sitting cross-legged while concentrating-slowly began to open his eyes.
Their distance was indeed far apart because Qian Kun was in the Middle Continent, while Xiao Shuxiang was in the Eastern Continent. But the Alchemist Chef could sense that there was a danger like he was going to target him.
