XIAO SHUXIANG'S
386 - Surprise Attack
The discussion of Xiao Shuxiang's wedding plans resumed when Yang Shu and Yang Fu came. The two old men were initially shocked and full of disbelief, so Xiao Shuxiang explained back to be understood by Grandpa and his parents.
Xiao Shuxiang originally explained how he could become the Guardian Protector of Ling Qing Zhu, and then explained about the ancient tradition of the clan, 'Ling' which Yang Shu or Xiao WeiWei had likely heard of.
Xiao Shuxiang's explanation wasn't completely complete, he hid some things and this did not have to be told to his grandfather or his parents.
The night was so long. They were indeed talking about the 'Ling' family that existed in the Middle Continent without knowing that the current Scarlet Blood had already started to carry out their initial plans.
"I really wanted to watch the full moon when we did the slaughter, but the moon in the sky instead.. Haaa.. Disappointing,"
The breath of a young man could be heard clearly by the fellow beside him. He was currently standing on a branch of a red wisteria tree that was within the territory of the Sky Pagoda Sect.
"Why do you have to complain about things that don't matter. The moon in the sky was even more beautiful because it resembled this sickle weapon of my death."
"Hmph, my whip is much better than your scythe. My weapon is intended to torture the opponent's body to the core of his bones.." a grin expands on the face of a 39-year-old in a uniform as red as blood.
"You think my sickle weapon can't do it? It's even better than your old, unkempt rope,"
The 22-year-old, with a large scar on his left temple, was seen gently swiping his death sickle.
These two young men were part of the Blood Scarlet and it could be seen from the white-colored fox mask that was on their left waist.
"My whip though old, but it can still cut your body into pieces. Do you want to try it?"
"Hoooh? So you're challenging me?"
The aura of competition was so pronounced between these two young men. They were indeed part of the Blood Scarlet, but before becoming a member of the group - both were wandering swordsmen.
The young man whose face was ordinary but had a muscular strapping body was dubbed as the Swordsman of the Blood Whip, while the young man beside him had the nickname the Prince of Death's Crescent.
The scar on the face of the young man armed with a sickle stick that was taller than his body did not make him look ludicrous with the nickname 'Tower', he did have a handsome face.
Ever since joining the Blood Scarlet, the two of them were competing against each other even now that it had re-started.
The Swordsman of the Blood Whip challenged the Death Crescent Prince, anyone among them who could kill more people then it was the victor.
The two young men got the arm from a woman who looked to be 9 years old. The little-faced child with hair along his neck was seen standing on another branch of the wisteria tree.
"Both of you! We didn't come to slaughter this place, did you forget?"
The kitten-eyed child whose skin was as white as milk was seen reprimanding the Swordsman Blood Whip and the Prince of Death Crescent. He was also part of the Blood Scarlet and was one of the reasons why intruders could break into the territory of the Sky Pagoda Sect.
The little girl named Qingyu Mao, a Demonic Beast in the form of a cat that is related to Tianqi Mao.
When Tianqi Mao, the Mayor of Flower Dew City was a type of Weather Cat. Then Qingyu Mao is a cat that has the ability to encourage the various passions of living beings that he wants.
Qingyu Mao was first recruited by Qian Kun and transformed by the young man into a human being and privileged over his other comrades. That's why he's a little disrespectful.
"aaah.. I'm so sad.. This place is so beautiful.. I want to cry.. Do we have to disturb the tranquility and peace of this place..? I really can't bear.. I want to cry.."
The girl standing beside Qingyu Mao finally spoke, she had already let out small mutters but her voice had only just sounded clear.
The 25-year-old girl with a fox mask on the left side of her head was seen holding and gently rubbing a rag doll.
She had a clean face and light brown eyes, it was obvious that this girl had just cried.
Qingyu Mao clucked as she shook her head slowly. He watched the girl beside him and then exhaled, This fellow does have a strange personality.
"Gang'Er, you have a lot of tear reserves, don't you? Use it when our work is done, okay?" The Blood Whip Swordsman was already impatient, his hands had itched to ravage this place.
"I'm very sad.. People like you won't know the sadness I'm going through.. This place is so beautiful.. It's too beautiful to make me cry.." Miao Gang looked up at the sky and his tears came back.
".. The moon is so beautiful, this peace should not be ruined. Poor thing.. Too bad.." Miao Gang tightly hugged his rag doll, the look on his face revealing a deep sadness. However, his three colleagues were still mediocre.

It was true, the atmosphere in the Sky Pagoda Sect was beautiful and soothing. The crescent moon that appeared in the sky was not even able to hide the beauty of this place.
Starting from the thickness of red wisteria to the sparkle of a lotus lake that water butterflies use to play with their herds.
Not only the water butterflies, but the outer disciples and inner disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect made use of this night to train. They were in separate arenas, but the spirit of the disciples was evident in every move they took.
One of the outer disciples who was so seriously practicing was Gong Zitao. He had now subverted two of his opponents and made them admit defeat.
"Seniors.. You are great.." One of the disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect still praised Gong Zitao even though he was trying to catch his breath.
Gong Zitao smiled amiably and patted the soft shoulder of the male disciple he had previously fought. "I'm sorry if my dings were too harsh, you're okay, right?"
"Sure Senior, my back is only a little sore but will heal soon. Senior don't have to worry, I'll be fine."
Gong Zitao nodded and asked this fellow disciple to rest, he then resumed his training by fighting against the other disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect.
"Please help, Senior..!"
The cry of the 18-year-old male student to Gong Zitao began the next round of fighting.
He was indeed young, but his agility in moving and barely any gaps made anyone amazed at him.
"Soft and sharp, curb but loose. You have a beautiful movement.." Gong Zitao never hesitated to give praise to his opponent.
OH. BAAM..!
Two fists clashed against each other, his voice quite loud and making the watching disciples stunned. If the two brothers were to use weapons, the fight would be even more heated.
"This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful movement, where did you learn it? Every time I attack, you can fend it off well. Did I miss a lesson from the teacher?"
Gong Zitao was curious, he twisted his body and then gave a kick to his opponent, but his attack was easily avoided.
"There's no way Senior doesn't know this move. Young Master Lan had always worn it as she fought the Guardian Protector challenger Miss Ling. I learned by watching him fight,"
!!
Gong Zitao's initially friendly facial complexion changed slightly when he heard the words of his opponent. He took a defensive position and is now not trying to attack.
"Senior, what's wrong?"
"Hm? It doesn't matter, Young Master Lan is indeed talented. You are also talented at being able to learn from Young Master Lan's fighting moves," Gong Zitao smiled again, but this time the smile was a little different.
Ever since his defeat by Xiao Shuxiang, Gong Zitao had come to hate the young man and his friends. He wanted Xiao Shuxiang's death so that Ling Qing Zhu could belong to him.
His hatred seemed to have reached the deepest core of his bones until Gong Zitao had even without hesitation become a traitor in his own sect. It was he who was the reason why the four people from the Scarlet Shadow were able to get to the territory of the Sky Pagoda Sect without being caught.
Qingyu Mao was a Demonic Beast who could also use a Moving Mirror. By simply giving a seal paper to Gong Zitao-Qingyu Mao can make himself and whoever he wants to go to the place where the seal paper is located.
Only, if Xiao Shuxiang had appeared in the same place as his seal was - then Qingyu Mao could have extended the distance of his point of appearance with the seal.
OH. BAAM..!
Gong Zitao's kick was restrained by his opponent's right arm, he twisted the body and used a kick from his one leg. This fight is quite fierce.
Gong Zitao treads with both hands touching the ground, he still uses his feet to attack the opponent and now he kicks repeatedly.
Ge Yu Han continued to watch his Young Master fight while slowly retreating backwards, he began to search through the gaps in order to get away from the crowd of outer disciples.
Just like Gong Zitao, he also had a seal paper made by Qingyu Mao. The paper was in his clothes and was currently being taken out by Ge Yu Han when he was in a quiet place.
In one slow motion, Ge Yu Han tore the paper apart until it caught fire all of a sudden. He was surprised, but then calmed down.
Elsewhere, Qingyu Mao realized her seal paper had broken one. This meant that he had already received a mark from Gong Zitao and his partner.
"Come, it's time..!"
!!
The Blood Whip Swordsman and the Death Crescent Prince had already waited for quite a while, the two of them smiled widely and the next second immediately darted in two different places.
"aaah.. Finally began.. A place as beautiful as this would be filled with sadness.. L'm.. I want to cry,"
"Since then, haven't you cried? Let's go..!"
Qingyu Mao darted and followed Miao Gang, they had the task of finding the target that Qian Kun wanted. This mission was a kidnapping mission, as well as exposing to the Sky Pagoda Sect about the slight might of the shadow of the Skull Sword Party.
The Blood Whip Swordsman chose to head to the deepest region of the Sky Pagoda Sect. In the air, he spread out his whip and immediately smashed it into any building.
!!
The sound of lightning blaringly shocked everyone. The large building immediately split in two and showed a puff of smoke like the place was burned out.
"Ha ha ha..! It's fun..!" the laughter of the Blood Whip Swordsman sounded terrifying, he pulled back his weapon which turned out to be true-the whip was now covered in blood.
"Hmm? Whose is this..? One guy? Two guys? Or.." The Blood Whip Swordsman laughed again when he found out that his weapon had just killed five servants at once.
?!
There was a loud noise and a cry for help. The building that was attacked by the Blood Whip Swordsman collapsed in several parts and hit the unlucky disciples and servants.
The thunderous voice earlier could be heard by the GrandElder Sect of the Sky Pagoda, the Patriarchs, Ling Lang Tian, including Ling Qing Zhu. They all rushed over to check the origin of the loud noise.
On the other hand, the Death Crescent Prince made a mess in the territory of the outer disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect. His unexpected presence made it difficult for the disciples to avoid the incoming attacks.
The Death Crescent Prince in one swing, he could injure five disciples with the inner blade of his scythe and slash seven disciples wearing the outer blade of his scythe.
The Weapon of the Death Crescent Prince was sharper on the outer blade, this heirloom was certainly not the same as a scythe in general.
"Review Your Head..!!" The Death Crescent Prince exclaimed as he swung back his weapon. His facial expression was so happy, he seemed to be enjoying the panic of the outer disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect.
"Ha ha ha..!! Let's make this a beautiful long night..!"
The Death Crescent Prince was not playful, he was still floating in the air but he easily swung his weapon and managed to injure nine disciples as well as damage one of the buildings.
!!
Some students tried to fend off the incoming attack, but they were not even able to bounce far enough and only stopped when hitting a tree or building wall.
Gong Zitao and Ge Yu Han took advantage of the situation to immediately go to a safe place, the task they had taken from Qian Kun was the easiest task and currently both of them had carried out the task well.
CRAASH..!
The Death Sickle Prince's laughter sounded again, ".. What the fuck? Why are you all weak, huh? If not attack.. You're definitely gonna die. Come on, attack me..! Don't let this slaughter be easy..!"
OH, BAAAM..!
The outer disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect were trying to dodge, they were crowding too much until some people were injured again. One of the disciples began to call for setting up a formation.
"How can our sect be entered by intruders? Is the protective seal broken?"
"Young Master Ling will definitely notice it right away if indeed the sect's protective seal is broken. No need to care about that, let's attack him..!"
As the largest Neutral Flow sect in Big Dipper Star City, naturally the Sky Pagoda Sect had many disciples. The presence of intruders whose numbers are not as clear as coming to deliver lives.
"Good..! Very nice..! Ha ha ha.. This is how it should be..! So I can get even more excited about chopping up your bodies..!!"
The Death Crescent Prince was a cultivator whose practice was at the Sky-level Grand Master. His age was indeed younger and it was certainly impossible for such a high practice to be possessed by a young man whose age had not even reached 30 years.
Yes, it is impossible if that person is not talented and the Death Crescent Prince is not at all a talented figure. The increase in his strength was unmistakable as he used the Forbidden Technique.
"He's so strong, how's this?!"
"I really don't believe our sect can the arrival of an intruder be this dangerous..!"
The disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect more or less had the same thought. They tried to defend and counterattack the Death Sickling Prince.
The clash of their weapons sounds like mutual consent. Several times their comrades were hit by attacks, but the disciples were unwilling to give up.
The Death Crescent Prince further intensified his attacks and did not even care that his weapons were damaging the existing buildings.
"Is this just the Sky Pagoda Sect's ability, huh?"
The thud of the Death Crescent Prince made the disciples firmly grip their respective swords and gave the young man a sharp look.
"We don't know who you are and what you want in this place. You could have easily entered our sect, but don't expect you to go as you please..!"
"Hmph, I'm not sure you're capable of stopping me. Even scratching a little bit of my clothes you can't. If you are capable, then don't talk too much and let's attack me..!"
The Death Crescent Prince challenged the outer disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect to be able to attack and give him some scratches. He looked so confident, even a white dot in the sky was not aware of it.
The point when viewed from afar looks like a flashing star, but over time the point glitters more clearly and the distance is getting closer.
The glint was like a line of light that instantly struck the Death Crescent Prince until he reflexively took some distance.
!!
The attack was able to tear down a large tree and now the evidence is visible. The glint earlier came from a weapon that someone wearing which the sect disciples would instantly be able to recognize.
The one who attacked the Death Sickle Prince was none other than Ling Qing Zhu. The thin veiled beautiful girl would not want to see her sect being ravaged by enemies who could somehow get in here.
"Go"
Ling Qing Zhu's voice was cold with an almost eye-like gaze that belonged to Lan Guan Zhi. He played the sword like a dance, too dazzling, sharp, and instantly turned into a fast.
!!
The Five Step Star Line dance and ending with the swiping of the sword surface using two fingers was an attack that Ling Qing Zhu continued to train to the point of unavoidable opponents including the Death Sickle Prince.
Just once a sword swipe and attack came towards the opponent like a flash of fire arrows that continued to be followed by other fire arrows until the opponent was actually hit by the attack.
!!
The Death Crescent Prince bounced far enough and clearly felt pain in his body. He was only able to stop when his back hit the wall of the gate of the territory of the core disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect.
Ling Qing Zhu did not let his opponent prepare let alone catch his breath, he again attacked and was like avenging every life his opponent had lost.
There was no time to mourn the death of the student who died without being able to resist, Ling Qing Zhu and his fellow students had to overcome this intruder.
