Nie Shang was not in the crowd, let alone dancing with his friends. He only became the most enthusiastic audience and clapped when the third song from Siu Yixin was finished.
The strange yet horrendous concert only stopped when Ling Shen Yue and Wang Rui Chang came. Both of them did hear a noise, but came too late because they thought it was just an ordinary thing.
Only after a while, their eyebrows shriveled when focusing their hearing better. Immediately the two rushed over and were very surprised to see all this.
There was no stopping this, even some disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect also followed along and instead broke many rules. Xiao WeiWei who saw the mastermind was his own disciples could not even say anything.
The mother of Xiao Shuxiang was seen watching the place where the parents stood and saw her husband and father-in-law.
Yang Shu and Yang Hao had absolutely no intention of stopping Jing Mi, Yi Wen, and the others. They let the children do whatever they want, not harm anyone.
In the Butterfly Sect, his disciples were not bound by many and strict rules. They are free to be themselves. The rules that exist are only 'Mutual care between brothers, loyal, and respect their friendship all'.
["I don't mind the young men, but see a girl who doesn't know her shame dance in their midst.. Isn't this an undeserved spectacle?"]
?!
Ling Lang Tian heard the words of the old swordsman from the Earth Peg Party, The moustached and thick-bearded Old Bangka was talking about Yi Wen with the other elders.
Although Ling Lang Tian's face was calm and he didn't say a word, it didn't mean that he agreed with the Old Bangka.
Ling Chu Zhen himself seemed to be smiling faintly, ["The girl who had a person who was graceful, calm, and able to maintain her attitude, symbolizing beauty and honor. The young lady over there, she has great courage that not all girls have."]
["Hmph, Lord Ling Chu Zhen.."] A woman dressed in white interrupted, [".. All I see is that girl's bravery looks like a woman j****g in a brothel. His presence makes a stain here, don't you care about the sanctity of your sect?"]
["How did you know?"] a young man dressed in black with a red rose suddenly asked. He was a swordsman from the Rajawali Beak Party who had met Xiao Shuxiang in Flower Recess City.
["Miss, if you've never been to such a place, it's best not to say anything gibberish. I see you from a respectable family, should use softer language. There is no saying, 'pronunciation is a reflection of one's nature'. Looking at you, I'm not sure you're better than that lady over there."]
!!
The soft tone of voice, as well as the degrading cynical smile of the Rajawali Half-Party warrior, invited a reaction from anyone who heard his words just now.
Rajawali Half Party was a Black Stream party whose headquarters were in the Southern Sky Empire. This young man was clearly provoking and his words did sound rude, but it was also not entirely wrong.
Yang Shu and Ling Chu Zhen entered into the conversation before the atmosphere became tense and instead sparked a commotion.
The night was not as planned. Nie Shang told Xiao Shuxiang everything while visiting his brother in the morning.
Xiao Shuxiang had actually come out from within his Semesta Bracelet when he was getting tired of living alone. The six horses that became his companions were clearly different, they were animals, not humans.
No matter how good the world was in his Universal Bracelet, he still missed the atmosphere in his own surroundings. Again, these were the most important days of his life.
In Xiao Shuxiang's room. Not only did Nie Shang tell of the exciting events last night, but also the Crazy Beggar Boy. It was a pity that he did not witness everything in person.
".. The faces of my mother-in-law and my beautiful grandmother must have been great. Did they have a heart attack?" Xiao Shuxiang smiled, he listened to Nie Shang's story while playing cards with Jing Mi.
In this room of his, there was a table and two chairs arranged in such a way. Xiao Shuxiang sat on one of the chairs and faced Jing Mi.
Nie Shang sat on another chair not too close to the table as well as Xiao Shuxiang and Jing Mi's seats. He was together with the Mad Beggar Boy, Hou Yong, Hai Feng, Mo Huai, and Siu Yixin.
The young men who have their own characteristics are like being a spectator of a card game that their two friends do.
Nie Shang, "Brother Xiao. Their faces were red. Currently, the disciples of the Sky Pagoda Sect were receiving punishment. Those who dance get a whip of discipline, while those who become spectators must copy books about ethics while handstand."
Jing smiled and threw one of his cards to rival his brother's. He looks satisfied.
"Why aren't you all punished?" Xiao Shuxiang was so calm and threw the cards on the table while telling Jing Mi not to settle quickly.
Hou Yong spoke up, "Of course we also get punished. But before it actually happened, we ran straight here."
Hou Yong, Jing Mi and Hai Feng laughed. Xiao Shuxiang shook his head slowly as his friends were very mischievous and could not keep his grandfather's authority.
Xiao Shuxiang, "Aiya. You guys have humiliated our sect, but I still won't be angry. Wherever you are, make it the most comfortable place. The strict rules in this sect should not keep you restrained,"
"This is why I like you, brother. You're my role model.." Jing Mi smiled widely before her facial expression turned serious, ".. But there's actually something I really want to say.. Aren't you bothered by those two girls?"
Xiao Shuxiang blinked. She was indeed sitting on a single chair, yet she was between two beautiful girls. One had long hair and was dressed in pink, then the other girl had hair along her neck and was dressed in bright purple.
Jing Mi asked, "You now look like you have two concubines. Are you going to form a harem?"
Jing Mi did not initially fuss over this. But over time it felt very stifling. He had to play cards without a companion girl while his Brother Xiao was instead flanked by two beautiful girls.
".. This is not fair. Yi Wen, Zhi Shu! You're intruding. Go and sit there..!" Jing Mi told the two girls who were none other than her own fellow students to go to where Hou Yong and the others were.
"I don't want to.."
"I don't want to either.."
!!
Xiao Shuxiang flinched and raised his hands slightly holding five cards. He had a smooth thigh attack from these two beautiful girls sitting on either side of him.
"You two don't bother. Get your thighs off me,"
"Brother Xiao, I don't want to. I miss you," Yi Wen hugged Xiao Shuxiang and stared intently at Zhi Shu.
"Brother Xiao~ I won't do it either. There's no way I'm losing to this girl" Zhi Shu hugged Xiao Shuxiang.
The actions of the two girls made the Alchemist Chef exhale softly. Xiao Shuxiang temporarily closed his card and gently released the hugs of Yi Wen and Zhi Shu who were sitting on either side of him.
"It's up to you, but don't bother me and be careful with the 'Piton' residence'. Understood?"
Yi Wen and Zhi Shu looked at each other sharply without answering Xiao Shuxiang's question. Their actions made Hou Yong and Hai Feng shocked.
The two young men were still bachelors, while Xiao Shuxiang already had Ling Qing Zhu. But still the Alchemist Chef was plentiful in the heavens.
Hou Yong, "Thank you for once..! I really hope Brother Xiao dies."
Hi Feng, "His luck was too terrible. I hope Brother Xiao disappears from this world."
Mo Huai heard the cursing-pitched utterances of the two youths nearby, slowly his face turned pale.
"You two.. If Young Master Xiao hears it-"
"I've heard their words, Mo Huai. You don't have to warn them, neither of them will listen to you." Xiao Shuxiang threw the last card and smiled widely.
He held onto Yi Wen's knee folds and Zhi Shu then put him away slowly. Xiao Shuxiang moved his body forward and focused on looking at Jing Mi, his smile now felt awkward.
!!
Jing Mi subconsciously gulped, she seemed to have made a mistake by accepting her Brother Xiao's offer of playing cards.
"Brother Jing, you must fulfill my request. Well now.." Xiao Shuxiang shifted the wooden box that was on the table and showed the contents to Jing Mi.
!!
Yi Wen, Zhi Shu, and Jing Mi herself were so shocked to find out the contents of the box were Dragon Breath Pills.
Seeing the three of their friends shocked made Hai Feng, Hou Yong, and the others approach. They were curious about what Xiao Shuxiang had shown.
"Ehm.. Brother Xiao.. You're not forcing me to"
"Of course not, Brother Jing. I won't ask you to draw a sword and split your own stomach. You just need to cut off one finger slowly and hold the pain for ten breaths, that's all."
!!
Jing Mi and her friends jumped. Zhi Shu even nearly fell down if Mo Huai did not hold him back. They should have been suspicious from the start when Xiao Shuxiang suggested this card game.
"Why silence, Brother Jing? Just one finger. Are you unwilling to fulfill this Xiao Shuxiang request? Entertain me.."
"Brother Xiao! You're asking me to cut my own finger? Are you crazy? It's gonna hurt.."
"Right, and I like to see the expressions of people in pain." Xiao Shuxiang smiled, he looked extremely dazzling. "Hurry up, Brother Jing. Or do you want me to cut off your finger, hm?"
Jing Mi exhaled, "Brother Xiao.."
Yi Wen, "Brother Jing, are you afraid? Just one finger, this is definitely a fun game. Hurry up, and then I'll fight Brother Xiao."
Yi Wen's grin made his friends feel that he and Xiao Shuxiang had a resemblance. Jing Mi started to steady her heart and started asking for daggers from Mo Huai.
!!
Everyone was tense, except for Xiao Shuxiang and Yi Wen. The gazes of the two were so spirited and as if they had been waiting for this kind of moment.
Jing Mi placed her hand on the table and looked at her left index finger. He also directed the dagger with a feeling of fear.
"Don't flow Qi on that dagger. You have to cut it very slowly until it breaks. If you cheat, your other four fingers will suffer the consequences,"
"Brother Xiao, you are very cruel to your own brother. I just made you my role model, now I regret that."
"Seeing your own suffering is entertainment to me, Brother Jing. Do it now, I'm impatient."
!!
Nie Shang was unable to see it. He opened his fan and covered his own face. The Mad Beggar Boy, Siu Yixin, and the others looked curious instead. Their hearts are beating fast.
Jing Mi started to grimace, she actually did and it amazed Yi Wen. The expression as well as the manly cry of the muscular young man gave him goosebumps.
He could hear the sound of bone cracks, his brother was clearly using his own power without relying on Qi.
Xiao Shuxiang looked delighted. Jing Mi was one of the loyal ones and never refused anything she wanted. Really good friends.
"♩♬ He actually did it?♬♪"
Siu Yixin still could not believe it. The Crazy Beggar Boy himself looked horrified. This card game is thrilling, but makes him also want to participate in it.
Jing Mi tried to endure the pain and did not shout out loudly. The thin veil on her forehead stiffened in line with the expression on her face that was so beautiful in the eyes of a person like Xiao Shuxiang.
Jing Mi endured her pain for ten breaths. He swallowed a single Dragon Breath Pill that made his finger grow back in a split second. He tried to get up and said he wanted to calm down for a moment.
Mo Huai and Nie Shang followed Jing Mi who walked towards Xiao Shuxiang's bed. Both tried to comfort the young man.
Yi Wen stood up and then sat down on Jing Mi's chair. He took his brother's finger and watched him closely. He began to look at Xiao Shuxiang.
"This card game is interesting as well. The loser had to grant one winner a wish." Yi Wen's eyes flashed, ".. Brother Xiao, you have to pry one eye out for me."
"Alright, but try to beat me first."
Xiao Shuxiang started shuffling the cards that were made from the Western Continent. Hou Yong, Hai Feng, the Mad Beggar Boy, and Siu Yixin shifted their seats to get closer.
The tension feels more intense now. One by one the cards began to be thrown in turns by Xiao Shuxiang and Yi Wen. Their faces looked so solemn, and occasionally smiled evilly.
Anyone among Xiao Shuxiang and Yi Wen who lost, then the winner had the right to submit a single request that the losing party should not refuse.
Zhi Shu did not know who to support, as both Yi Wen and Xiao Shuxiang seemed unwilling to give up the chance to win.
"Yi Wen, thank you for your cooperation.." Xiao Shuxiang smirked and returned to winning the game.
Yi Wen puffed his cheeks and then clucked in annoyance. He was asked by Xiao Shuxiang to pull out the nails on each finger on his left hand.
!!
The request that was clearly unnatural and terrible shocked the others, but Yi Wen was instead challenged. He was panting with slightly watery eyes due to the spirit.
Hou Yong and Hai Feng were unable to say anything looking at Yi Wen's expression which looked extremely pleased. The Crazy Beggar Boy and Zhi Shu even blinked a few times in disbelief.
"I.. Very pounding. It makes me horny~"
"Yi Wen, you're so vulgar. Quickly just do it," Xiao Shuxiang goosebumps himself looking at the girl before him. Yi Wen had likely grown into a monstrous girl.
Jing Mi who was mistaken for shock by Nie Shang was seen closing her eyes with one hand before finally chuckling.
The game with stakes was actually already commonplace for the disciples of the Butterfly Sect. It was just that, compared to having the opponent injure themselves - they would have the opponent do something like go catch one criminal and take him to the sect to be skinned alive.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Shuxiang discovered a new way of playing that was much more thrilling.
!!
Yi Wen's screams sounded. It felt really painful when his fingernails were pulled out. Even Yi Wen had already lost her strength when she managed to pull one out.
Zhi Shu shut his mouth, he felt this was more terrifying than slashing at an opponent. Yi Wen himself gasped for breath and started pulling one more fingernail. The unaccustomed Nie Shang, was seen covering his ears while running out of the room.
Xiao Shuxiang enjoyed seeing the girl in front of him in pain. In her heart she praised herself for finding another way to feel happiness.
"Well..!"
"Yi Wen, are you yelling or sighing? Your voice can cause misunderstandings. What if someone hears it?"
Xiao Shuxiang was troubled. The girl in front of him seemed to like her own pain. A red clove was even seen on Yi Wen's cheeks beside the sweat pouring down her cheeks.
"Well.. Huh.. Brother Xiao.. I can't do it until it's done. Justjust please.. Huh.." Yi Wen drooped limp on the table and slowly pointed his left hand at Xiao Shuxiang, ".. Brother Xiao~ help me.. Do the rest,"
Yi Wen smiled with a face full of pain, he was only able to pull out his three fingernails.
Xiao Shuxiang blinked, yet did not refuse to help this short-haired beautiful girl.
!!
Yi Wen again screamed in pain. The feeling of having her nails pulled slowly out was unbearable. Her tears were dripping and her heart was pounding.
It felt like his spirit was being pulled out, "I'm going to die.. L'm.. Very glad.." Yi Wen screamed again. His right hand held firmly to the edge of the table as his last fingernail felt it beginning to fall apart.
!!
As Yi Wen shouted for the umpteenth time, Xiao Shuxiang's room door suddenly shifted violently. Hou Yong, Zhi Shu, Hai Feng, and Siu Yixin spontaneously turned their gazes towards the door.
