XIAO SHUXIANG'S
389 - Assistance
Ling Qing Zhu and Ling Jian Tou were shocked, both of them suddenly just felt their backs cold. The sound of the slash just now had made their bodies difficult to move.
"White Cat, how are you?"
!!
That voice sounded familiar to Ling Qing Zhu as well as Ling Jian Tou. Unmistakably, the voice belonged to Xiao Shuxiang.
Previously, a Moving Mirror had appeared inside the rooms where Xiao Shuxiang was discussing about his wedding plans to his grandfather and both parents.
In the room was also Lan Guan Zhi, the Mad Beggar Boy and the other Xiao Shuxiang friends. Hu Li's sudden arrival was obviously shocking. Moreover, he and O Zhan brought news that the Sky Pagoda Sect was in chaos.
Hu Li did not explain much, he directly pulled his Young Master Xiao to come with him immediately. Lan Guan Zhi, Xiao Qing Yan, Lan Xiao, and the Crazy Beggar Boy were coming behind them.
Luckily, Xiao Shuxiang had time to give Yang Shu a seal paper so that later when his grandfather wanted to go to the Middle Continent - they would not need to board a sailing ship anymore.
When he reached the Sky Pagoda Sect, Xiao Shuxiang and his companions arrived right under one of the outer disciples territory trees. They clearly heard the voice of a man who said that he was immortal.
Xiao Shuxiang, Lan Guan Zhi, and the Mad Beggar Boy instantly looked up along with a red-colored sickle stick disappearing suddenly and appearing right behind the bodies of the two Heaven Pagoda Sect disciples known to the three.
Without warning, Xiao Shuxiang and his two friends darted to resist the attack. The Mad Beggar Boy used his black bamboo stick and it produced a loud sound like two sharp weapons clashing together.
Lan Guan Zhi himself held the scythe with his sword, Shanghai. Unlike his good friend who used his right arm to fend off the attack.
The slashed body-like sound that Ling Qing Zhu and Ling Jian Tou heard was none other than Xiao Shuxiang's right arm. The Alchemist Chef slightly grimaced as the scythe he was holding was like touching his bones.
The Crazy Beggar Boy was also startled upon seeing this action of Xiao Shuxiang. He snarled the young man.
"Are you stupid? Why are you using your arm? Don't you have a gun?!"
They had just arrived and this young man beside him was already injured. The Crazy Beggar Boy was eager to kick this guy's ass right now!
Xiao Shuxiang, "Hmph, pain is needed to be a reminder that I can still die," his lips were attracted and formed a smile.
Whether anyone realized it or not - but when he felt pain, Xiao Shuxiang's eyes seemed to radiate a blaze of spirit. Not to mention, he was much more dazzling when injured compared to his usual appearance.
Ling Qing Zhu smiled faintly behind his thin veil. He had previously told his cousin, Ling Jian Tou that his protector would definitely come. And now the long-awaited person has arrived at a very opportune time.
!!
Unlike Ling Qing Zhu-The Crescent Prince of Death seemed to be jolted when he knew that the attack from his weapon was fended off by three strangers who had come out of nowhere.
"Bother," the Death Crescent Prince clucked in annoyance. He stretched out a little bit of his hand that very second as well.. His weapon was in his grasp.
Xiao Shuxiang turned around when the sickle weapon he had held with Lan Guan Zhi and the Mad Beggar Boy disappeared. The look in his eyes was then fixed on the figure of a man whose face had scars.
Xiao Shuxiang touched Ling Qing Zhu's shoulder and then said softly, "You've worked hard. Go and rest, let us take care of the rest." he patted Ling Qing Zhu's shoulder gently to make the girl stare at him.
"I can still fight."
"I like strong girls, but you don't have to push yourself. You can be weak at times and let me protect you, okay..?"
Xiao Shuxiang was so serious, his words were as if they were indeed coming from within his heart. It was even conveyed clearly from the facial expression as well as the gentle look in his eyes.
"I.. Not forcing yourself." Ling Qing Zhu turned his gaze in another direction. He was bothered to see his Guardian behaving attentively like this.
Xiao Shuxiang himself instead gasped at the remark of the girl beside him. He exhaled softly while scratching his non-itchy head.
"White Cat, I've said the romantic thing I've been practicing so quietly even so amazingly that I can fall in love with myself.. But why don't you feel it?"
"Mn?" Ling Qing Zhu looked at his Guardian Protector when he heard the young man's remark. His eyebrows slightly rose and this made the young man beside him snort softly.
"You're a girl who's annoying, callous, and even insensitive. Unheard-of.. You just stepped on Xiao Shuxiang's face,"
"When did I step on your face?" Ling Qing Zhu so seriously asked and this remark made Xiao Shuxiang spontaneously swing Yinng xionng towards the Death Crescent Prince while continuing to look at his White Cat.
!!
The Death Crescent Prince was shocked when he came under a sudden attack. One swing Yinng xiong produced five attacks and he was only able to fend off two.
The other three attacks hit the Death Crescent Prince until he bounced far enough away. This incident also made the Crazy Beggar Boy whose body slowly descended into shock to the point of unconsciously opening his mouth because it was too stunned.
Lan Guan Zhi and Ling Jian Tou were surprised. They had not expected Xiao Shuxiang to be able to give a surprise attack to an opponent in such an unusual manner.
"'Stomp on the face' is just an expression, White Cat.." Xiao Shuxiang was so anxious and eager to pinch the hard cheek of the girl beside him. He felt that his White Cat was fighting for too long until the contents of his head shifted slightly.
Ling Qing Zhu realized the frustration of the Guardian. He understood what Xiao Shuxiang had said, including the sentence that really touched his heart. But it feels interesting if he himself can make this young man lose his composure.
Ling Qing Zhu's hand stretched out and touched Xiao Shuxiang's left cheek, her facial expression and eye gaze remained the same: cold, calm, dignified, and gentle at the same time.
Xiao Shuxiang was actually startled by this action of his White Cat, he had no idea what to do. Could he be holding the hand that touched his cheek? Or he makes a sound and comments that his White Cat hands feel cold.
In the end, Xiao Shuxiang simply kept silent as he looked towards Ling Qing Zhu without losing any vigilance towards the opponent who might just attack him all of a sudden.
"You.. Quick,"
?!
"Mn? Worth it? Worth what?" Xiao Shuxiang frowned upon hearing this short remark of the girl in front of him.
Ling Qing Zhu patted his Guardian Patron's cheek gently and then darted down to regroup with Hu Li, Xiao Qing Yan, as well as Lan Xiao.
Xiao Shuxiang blinked a few times for not getting an answer from the girl he thought was strange. He scratched his head that was not itchy.
"White cat actually said what? I deserve what? Deserve death? Worth being a meat chop? Quick to dust? Deserve what?!"
It was incomprehensible, Ling Qing Zhu only said two words and then left without explaining anything. Xiao Shuxiang, who had been able to read every expression on the faces of the girls, could not even read the flat-board expression of his White Cat.
".. Haaah.. Does the kid really like me or not? Usually a girl will be shy or at least her voice slightly trembling, misbehavior or what when talking to the young man she likes, but the White Cat.. He just acted like I was his son. Don't you?"
This charming-looking young man started again. He was like talking to himself but ultimately asked for Lan Guan Zhi's opinion, even including asking for an opinion on the Death Crescent Prince whose incident was a troublemaker in this sect.
"Miss Ling likes you," Lan Guan Zhi just opened her voice. Since then he had only been silent because he wanted to give his best friend a chance to talk to Ling Qing Zhu.
"You don't joke, Lan Zhi. How do you know the White Cat likes me..?" Xiao Shuxiang shook his head while clucking softly. ".. Forgetit. He's-he-!"
Xiao Shuxiang flinched as suddenly Lan Guan Zhi held onto his left shoulder and turned his body to face off against this good friend of his.
Lan Guan Zhi touched Xiao Shuxiang's cheek like he was imitating what Ling Qing Zhu had done earlier, only that he slightly rubbed the soft cheek of his good friend with the thumb of his hand.
"I knew.. As he did this.." Lan Guan Zhi's voice sounded low, his eyes softened and seemed to be able to bring someone to peace.
The Mad Beggar Boy who saw this unexpected event seemed to touch his cheek as it was hot. As a young man with deviant-viewing behavior this was a romantic thing, unlike the Death Crescent Prince who instead felt disgusted to the point of wanting to vomit.
Just wanted to attack.. The Death Crescent Prince instantly heard the voice of one of his comrades saying that their target had been found.
[".. Me and Miao Gang will take care of it, while you kill as many students as you can and this time don't play around anymore" ]
The voice was only heard by the Death Crescent Prince, he slightly moved his head as it felt aching. "I was just about to cut a gay couple and you screwed it up..!"
["Hm? What couple?" ]
"It has. Just focus on your fight,"
The Death Crescent Prince was about to attack when someone first charged at him and made himself bounce quite far away.
"I know you're a crook, but try to be nice a little bit. Lan'Er Gege was in the highest charming level, I wanted to cry to see how gentle his attitude was to that bratty and annoying brat. I'm actually very envious, but I don't want to bother them. So you better face me,"
The body of the Death Crescent Prince disappeared suddenly and appeared at a distance of 15 meters from the place where the Crazy Beggar Boy floated down.
The young man with the black bamboo stick treaded smoothly on the top of a tree. Both of his feet rested on the leaves, just like the Deathly Sickle Prince did.
If you want to say, actually Crazy Beggar Boy is better known than his makeup that resembles a hanging ghost. The Death Crescent Prince would recognize her if she wore the makeup, but right now the face of the Mad Beggar Boy was in a handsome clean state.
"I'm looking very well at your age, you're very young. Why do you want to enjoy life as a criminal? Can't you live like me?"
Crazy Beggar Boy rambled with the intention of wanting to change his opponent's thinking so as not to do something that could harm himself.
".. I have a principle that people like you deserve a chance to change. It's a waste if you have to fight with your life for the pay,"
"Hmphs. No need to lecture me. You better get ready and die at the end of my scythe right now."
The Death Crescent Prince threw his weapon at a high speed, yet it was so easy for the Mad Beggar Boy to fend off the weapon without even seeing the direction in which the attack came.
After being fended off by the opponent, the weapon returned to the hands of the Death Crescent Prince.
The Mad Beggar Boy arranged the position and went back to talk, "Compared to 'he', I am a good person. I can forgive you and assume what you did never happened. It's so different 'to him' that even death is too wonderful for you,"
"Well, you want to forgive me? But I didn't make a mistake, so how can you forgive me,"
The Death Crescent Prince looked so haughty, he fiddled with his weapon and then darted towards the Mad Beggar Boy. His attack was quick and deadly, yet still his opponent seemed to be able to dodge easily.
"Only a man who is so in love with human flesh and blood will deny that he has done anything wrong. Look around you, do you think this mess is self-created?"
The Mad Beggar Boy fended off the outside of the opponent's sickle weapon, his bamboo staff was really hard until the clash like two clashing swords was clearly heard.
He uses the leaves that are flown by the wind as a foothold to flex his body and attack opponents from above.
"I like to make a mess. I even like to eat the flesh of creatures like you. This kakacauan.. It was still not much," the Death Crescent Prince smiled as his weapon again clashed with the bamboo stick of the Mad Beggar Boy.
The Death Crescent Prince's smile widened even more to the point of tearing his lips. He looked delighted when his opponent put on a face expression full of shock.
"Nights are long and I haven't massacred a lot of people, so let's bet. How quickly can you protect them all..!"
!!
The staff from the Death Crescent Prince's weapon instantly turned into chains and directly charged wildly to the point of hitting several buildings, including trees.
"Revelation..!!"
OH, BAAAM..!
!!
The outer disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect were still many who had yet to go to a safe place. The attack from the Death Crescent Prince had injured more than ten people among them.
!!
The Mad Beggar Boy was shocked, he could not exert enough strength as the effects could harm the people he wanted to protect.
The Death Crescent Prince instead laughed out loud and increasingly went on an attack blindly. He did not care at all about the surrounding conditions or took pity on the disciples who were running around to save themselves.
"What a beautiful night..! A beautiful night for the destruction of this sect..!" the cry from the Death Crescent Prince sounded extremely excited accompanied by how fast his movements were in swinging weapons.
Elsewhere, chaos was also made by the Blood Whip Swordsman. He fought with Ling Lang Tian without holding back his strength. Many residences had been destroyed and even the ground was affected by the fight.
BLAAAR..!
The strongest attack of the Blood Whip Swordsman diverted Ling Lang Tian towards the top until it hit the protective seal of the Sky Pagoda Sect. The sound of the sky breaking was so loud that it made the ground tremble.
"Your sect has a great protective seal, even insects are difficult to enter this sect. But.. Are you sure it's okay? Sects can be leveled with the ground if help doesn't come, too,"
The Swordsman's voice Blood Whip was impressed as it was mocking Ling Lang Tian. He was indeed right, the protective seal of the Heavenly Pagoda Sect was not easily penetrated by intruders, but that did not mean that this seal could pass one disciple to come out and seek help.
Is correct. The Seal of the Sky Pagoda Sect had been in control of the black-robed and fox-masked figure who stood quietly on one of the tallest buildings in the Big Dipper City.
The figure had put all the creatures in the three cities into a deep sleep so that no one could sense any chaos in the Sky Pagoda Sect.
"The four of them why so long ago." the black-robed figure seemed to mutter softly, ".. I only gave the order to kidnap a child, not a single sect. Do I need to intervene alone.."
The robe of the figure seemed to be waving in the wind, three small blue flames began to appear around it and floated up and down slowly. They were like saying something to the figure in front of them.
Other than the people in the Sky Pagoda Sect-all the residents in the Big Dipper Star City had fallen asleep very soundly, not least those whose incidentals were cultivators. Not only that, but the same incident also happened to two nearby cities. This black-robed figure is the culprit.
He used his three small blue flames to burn each one incense stick in three different cities. The effect was so overwhelming that it was even able to spread to every corner of the city.
"If they don't come back in the morning, I'll make the four men into donkey food,"
BLAARS..!
Already several times he had heard the roar of lightning, the black-robed figure had no time counting it. He only thought of his four subordinates who were currently messing around in the Sky Pagoda Sect.
Elsewhere, a loud voice was also very heard by Xiao Shuxiang. The young man was still with his good friend and at this moment they looked serious.
"Seeing from the chaos.. That intruder doesn't care about anyone else's life.." Xiao Shuxiang held onto the hand of Lan Guan Zhi who then moved his Semestal Bracelet to this good friend of his.
"I have to trouble you again, Lan Zhi.."
"Mn, no problem." Lan Guan Zhi could feel his left arm warm up, this came from the golden writing that moved from Xiao Shuxiang's arm towards his arm.
"Be careful, Lan Zhi.."
"You too," Lan Guan Zhi immediately shot towards the disciples and inserted them all into the Universal Bracelet without giving any explanation.
Xiao Shuxiang himself went towards the place where the Crazy Beggar Boy was fighting fiercely with the Death Sickle Prince. He attacked the intruder right on the blind spot.
!!
The Death Crescent Prince could not dodge the attack that had just suddenly come. He bounced and hit the roof of one of the buildings until it collapsed, his ribs like they had just been broken.
"Damn it..!" The Death Crescent Prince coughed in blood, he growled with such an annoyed face. He then darted up without caring about the pain in his body.
".. Attacking in such a dirty way, is this the teaching of the White Stream, huh?"
Xiao Shuxiang instead smiled at his opponent's remark, "When did I ever say that I came from the White Stream? You've misunderstood,"
With Ying xiong already in his right hand, Xiao Shuxiang lunged at the Death Crescent Prince and took over the fight without letting the Crazy Beggar Boy come along.
His attack was strong and sharp, Xiao Shuxiang was also like a craze. He did not let his opponent take a position let alone breathe. He can even dodge quickly until his clothes and skin are not scratched from enemy weapons.
OH, BAAAM..!
Only once Xiao Shuxiang was injured and it was the first time he had come and fended off the scythe from the enemy. The next up to twenty attacks were launched - he no longer suffered any injuries.
"Hows it? Do you like it?" xiao Shuxiang's grin was no less terrifying. He may not be able to tear his cheek when grinning, but he is no amateur when it comes to evil grins. He's obviously experienced at doing it.
THE TRAANG!
"Who are you really?!" The Death Crescent Prince was curious about Xiao Shuxiang's identity. He had been famous as a warrior with very fast movements, but why was he defeated by this young man? It's really unbelievable.
The answer to his question was instead a sly smile, this made the Death Crescent Prince flinch as well as feel troubled. Not to mention his opponent's eyes flashed red and the next second assaulted him brutally.
!!
The Crazy Beggar Boy exclaimed, "Shuxiang! Hold Strength! You Can Make This Place Destroyed..!" he panicked as his good friend Lan'Er Gege fought with sincerity.
"Xiao Shuxiang..!!"
!!
