XIAO SHUXIANG'S
472 - Crime II [Revised]
One swing from Xiao Shuxiang's sword resulted in five consecutive strikes. The trees that were hit by the attack were split with a look like they had been struck by lightning.
He also dodged the attacks from the corpses of cultivators whose strength could not be underestimated. The ground in this forest trembled as a result of their fierce fight.
Among the cultivators, Wei Lou Ye was one of the warriors who recognized to be the Grand Elder of the Sky Sword Sect in the past. His practice had already reached the Grand Master stage at a still quite young age.
He was also a figure who was respected by warriors from other universities, he was also respected by his brothers and sisters. His nature and attitude were a reflection of the rules of the Sky Sword Sect.
In the past people said, to understand the sect must pay attention to Wei Lou Ye. He was a perfect figure, and was even better than Lan Xu Jian as well as the current Grand Elder of the Sky Sword Sect.
!!
"…"
Only a clash of swords rang out between Xiao Shuxiang and Wei Lou Ye. Despite facing each other and seeing the sight, neither of them said a word.
Xiao Shuxiang no longer cursed Yinng xiong, as if he had given up on his sword. All he did was equalize the movement of the body with the speed of his stealth weapon.
!!
Not only was it focused on his fight with Wei Lou Ye, but Xiao Shuxiang was also focused on Jian Shen and the other cultivators. Some of them had arm wounds, but they quickly closed.
Xiao Shuxiang who saw them not bleeding became aware that he could not use his strongest moves. Not to mention the fact that he had a hard time making them into lumps of meat.
Ying xiong did not release his poison at all, nor did he hesitate to become a dull sword and completely trouble Xiao Shuxiang. The thing is, the Alchemist Chef had a hard time putting it back into the bracelet of the universe, Ying xiong seemed to have his own purpose with all of this.
"That doesn't seem to be the Sky Heirloom Sword.." Jian Shen noticed Xiao Shuxiang's weapon that looked hard to control, and he snorted before darting back.
!!
His sword clashed violently with Xiao Shuxiang's weapon. He smiled disdainfully as he looked at the young man's facial expression which was like trying his hardest.
"You have a good sword, but I doubt you can use it to slash."
"Eitherway. Maybe I can try it on you, Senior." Xiao Shuxiang replied to Jian Shen's remark, he retraced on the ground and the next second exchanged attacks with the cultivator.
Fighting fifteen people with Grand Master-level practices was actually no easy feat. Although Xiao Shuxiang had faced them, but in the past he had difficulties as well.
!!
Xiao Shuxiang was startled, an attack coming from the back of his body. He dodged too late and was hit by the attack, lucky that the spirit of Phoenix Fire on his back got up and protected him in time.
Wei Lou Ye, Jian Shen, and the cultivators who were his opponents were shocked. This was the first time they had seen Xiao Shuxiang possess the Spirit Phoenix Flame.
In their minds right now was the Destroying Star that had learned many techniques in his present life.
Xiao Shuxiang retraced on one of the treetops, he brushed off the dust on his right shoulder and gave a dislike expression. He looked at the elder cultivator who dared attack him from behind.
"I've promised Ling Lang Tian to refrain from killing anyone, but this will definitely not stop before they completely vanish.." Xiao Shuxiang felt the sword in his hand tremble, Yinng xiong was like he wanted to say something.
The Alchemist Chef exhaled before his gaze caught a flash of light shooting towards him. He had also made up his mind not to heed Ling Lang Tian's warning. If he keeps holding back, he's the one who's gone now.
!!
Xiao Shuxiang darted by tightly holding onto Ying xiong. A medium-sized mirror appeared in the air, right before him.
The flash of light earlier entered into the Xiao Shuxiang Moving Mirror and appeared behind one of the corpses of the cultivators. The light pierced through the chest of the cultivator which made his comrades shocked in disbelief.
BLAHAR..!!
!!
That glint of light was truly deadly, Xiao Shuxiang was even shocked. If he were to experience it, it would be impossible to maintain the body intact. Even the corpse of the cultivator who was exposed to the light exploded and became a meat chop.
?!
Something strange happened. The corpse of the cultivator was raised with a forbidden stance, but even though his body was destroyed.. He could not reshape the body. The problem was, the pain that the cultivator was supposed to experience was actually felt by Xiao Shuxiang.
The Alchemist Chef spewed out fresh blood and spontaneously pressed down on his chest. He was shocked and astonished at the state of his body. He sure did not receive a fatal attack, but somehow he was able to spit out blood.
"What.. What the hell is going on?" xiao Shuxiang's eyes seemed to be trying to digest the situation.
!!
Not yet Xiao Shuxiang thought, he came back under attack and ended up exchanging sword techniques to create an unusually loud rumble in the sky.
Every time Xiao Shuxiang managed to kill a corpse cultivator by wearing his immortal sword, he would instantly feel a strong pressure on his chest, then then spit out blood.
The stronger the opponent he killed, the more pain in his chest would increase. His gaze even began to blur somewhat, as if he was killing his own shadow.
Trang!
It is likely this condition that Gong Zitao is referring to. The young man said, that whether Xiao Shuxiang killed or was killed by the corpses - he still would not survive.
Xiao Shuxiang did not know that the liquid poured by Gong Zitao to resurrect the corpses of the cultivators contained Qian Kun's blood as well as his little blue flame core.
That Little Blue Flame could actually be said to be part of Xiao Shuxiang's life. They had accompanied the Alchemist Chef in every life even though the truth was that they were only loyal to Qian Kun.
OH, BAAAAM..!!
The sound of a huge explosion was heard. Not only was it the result of Xiao Shuxiang's fight, but it was also the battle that Jing Mi and her friends were facing right now.
"Brother Jing..!!" Hai Feng exclaimed, he wanted to help Jing Mi who was being attacked by three cultivators' corpses at once, but when she was about to rush her enemies became an obstacle for her.
Zhi Shu uses his ice bow to shoot each enemy and freeze them. He helps his friends from a distance.
On the other hand, Ling Qing Zhu had to fight with the five unconscious cultivators while protecting the junior disciples of the Butterfly Sect who were focused on saving the townspeople.
TRAANG..!!
Ling Qing Zhu leapt back while resisting the attack wearing Baiyi, his immortal sword. His white hair was scattered, toyed with by the wind, and seemed to glisten in the light.
Grrrr
The growling sound of the corpse of the cultivator he was fighting with could be clearly heard by Ling Qing Zhu. He looked at the faces of these cultivators who were so pale and hideous, but he was not at all afraid to swing a sword.
Ling Qing Zhu used the 'Nine Lightning Step Technique', an attack that no enemy would be able to withstand. He still maintained his calm and compassion when dealing with them.
BLAAAR..!!
Two of the five bodies were hit by the attack. Their bodies were split in two and looked charred like they had just been struck by lightning. Loud sounds are produced because of it and include making the ground vibrate.
Hou Yong who saw Ling Qing Zhu's action looked dazzled. He praised the girl's prowess and was almost hit by a stray attack if Hai Feng didn't help her.
"You Yong! Are you going to die?! You must focus, watch your enemies!" Hai Feng shot back after nagging his fellow students, he exchanged attacks with the corpses of cultivators who came from the Black Stream.
Yi Wen himself was at a great distance with his friends. He faced six humans who were under the influence of an evil spirit. It was just that the way he had done wrong, Yi Wen slashed at them mercilessly.
!!
Someone shot from the right side of his body. It was fortunate that Yi Wen noticed it before it was too late, his sword clashing against the fan of a blindfolded man.
"What the hell is this, Yi Wen? You're now deciding to go back to your friends, huh?"
That voice belonged to Gou Yun Fei, the man in strange clothes and was one of the warriors from the Middle Continent. He had previously already noticed Yi Wen and decided to intervene against this girl.
TRAANG..!
"I can't see, but I can still hear. Your heartbeat and the sound of your breathing are enough to prove that you are Yi Wen. So now answer? Whose side are you on, huh?"
"…"
Yi Wen did not reply, his movements were getting wild every time he attacked. It was only a moment when Yi Wen replied to the man by saying that he was siding with his fellow students, but in a different way.
Gou Yun Fei shook his head, this girl might never be seen in the meeting of the pillars, yet she was always aware of her presence.
Trang!
"Can you stop now? Let me do my job well. This won't get in the way of your plans at all." Yi Wen did not like to fight continuously with Gou Yun Fei, there was still something he had to do.
"Qian Kun did tell that there was one of the Blood Scarlet pillars that had its own purpose of this war. I think the person he's talking about is you,"
Trang!
"I'm not part of you. It's just that I do have a slightly similar goal to Qian Kun, so he let me. You don't ask me anything, I don't want to waste my time answering."
Thin blackish smoke formed under Yi Wen's feet and quickly enveloped his body. It only took a few seconds until the girl disappeared and made Gou Yun Fei flinch.
!!
The young man stopped his movement. He could no longer sense Yi Wen's existence. He also snorted and cursed the girl who left just like that while they were fighting.
Trangs..!
OH, BAAAAM..!!
Elsewhere, Jing Mi managed to make the two corpses of cultivators hit the building hard. Their bodies were slashed in pieces and slowly started to turn into dust grains.
Jing Mi rubbed the sweat on her forehead and then played both of her swords. He also darted to fight other corpses, he sometimes encouraged his younger brother.
!!
Not far from where Jing Mi was, was seen Crazy Beggar Boy who was holding back the attack of several corpses wearing his bamboo stick. His face looked pale and looked like he was frightened.
"They're creepy, I swear! Jing Mi Gege, help me!" The Crazy Beggar Boy leapt back and twisted his body. His enemy's sword slashed against the wall of the building that had previously been where he had been leaning for even a moment.
He exhaled a sigh of relief, but in that second also his eyes bulged and he spontaneously bent his body. It was almost as if his neck had been slashed with a weapon from another cultivator.
!!
With a quick movement, the Mad Beggar Boy rolled forward and again took a lot of breaths. He tightly hugged his bamboo staff and rolled to the side when it came under attack again.
"Oh my goodness..!! Why is it that attacks me so much. I'm just a human being, please forgive me.."
The Mad Beggar Boy whined, he kept on hailing Jing Mi and asking to be protected by the burly young man. His Lan'Er Gege was not around, and he had not seen Xiao Shuxiang since earlier. He could not ask Hou Yong for help because the young man was too short, Jing Mi was a suitable figure to be his protector.
"Jing Mi Gege..!"
"The Crazy Beggar..! You don't scream..! You're so strong, why so soft?!"
"But I'm Afraid of Ghosts and Dead Bodies..! Really, I'm Not Lying!"
!!
Jing Mi kicked hard at one of the corpses and turned her head towards the Crazy Beggar Boy. The man holding the bamboo stick looked bad-faced, he could not believe that there was a warrior who was afraid to see the undead.
"They bite, Jing Mi Gege..! They're nibbling! I don't want her corpse to have a scary face, please save me..!" The Crazy Beggar Boy tried to run, but still he was forced to withstand the oncoming attacks. His facial expression reflected a timid, but actually powerful swordsman.
One of the junior disciples of the Butterfly Sect shook his head when he saw the manner of the Mad Beggar Boy. He did not think there was a strange swordsman like a man dressed in black mixed with red.
He darted and quickly slashed at the neck of the corpse of the cultivator fighting the Mad Beggar Boy from behind. The fall of the corpse's head made the Crazy Beggar Child round his eyes and feel shocked.
The disciple's feet were treading smoothly on the ground. Without hesitation he stabbed into the back of the corpse and slashed at it with some movement. He even unhesitatingly kicked the hand part of the corpse he slashed while looking up at the Mad Beggar Boy.
"Basic suck. With the undead alone Brother is afraid? This brother is an adult, isn't he ashamed of a child like me?"
!!
Unknowingly the Mad Beggar Boy's mouth opened. The adorable voice of the 9-year-old boy in front of him and the way of fighting he saw just now was completely unexpected.
"You're this.."
"What look-look? If you behave like this, there will be a burden. If you are afraid of the undead, then go and find a safe place. Big Brother simply made Senior Jing's focus become distracted."
!
The male disciple spoke very cold and sniffly. He stretched out his left hand and used his clothes to clean the blade of his sword. He also shot and targeted one of the undead who was attacking his fellow students.
The Mad Beggar Boy just blinked. He circulated his gaze and looked at the lunge of those little cultivators. They look like children aged around 8 to 14 years old, wearing butterfly wings and without trepidation against opponents.
Their way of fighting is awesome for the little boys. And what makes it even more impossible is that they all never leave the opponent's body intact.
Crazy Beggar Boy has trouble swallowing his saliva. He did not lower his awareness of the surrounding conditions. His eyes looked straight ahead, but his right hand moved swinging the bamboo stick to resist the incoming attack.
"This.. I don't know what to say. Not only Xiao Shuxiang, but the children of the Butterfly Sect were also a group of people who were insane. They were small, still too young, how could they kill an opponent in this brutal manner? What Xiao Shuxiang taught his juniors,"
Trang!
It was actually not Xiao Shuxiang who directly taught the junior disciples of the Butterfly Sect. It's just that for the generation of Jing Mi and Hun Fung, he was indeed involved in it.
While the very young disciples were being taught by Xiao Shuxiang's friends. They get an unusual upbringing, both having to catch a Demonic Beast and skin it alive until taught to never hesitate to swing a sword.
The Crazy Beggar Boy was truly in shock. He had previously thought that the junior disciples of Xiao Shuxiang were adorable and adorable children, a group of weak and fragile little butterflies.
But it was unexpected that the children whose faces were so innocent and like little angels were merciless monsters.
Trangs..!
They have a terrible partnership. Their way of fighting was brutal yet supportive of each other. They slashed at the opponent's body without blinking and as if not satisfied with the head rolling, they instead slashed at the opponent's body and made it a meat chop.
The children had even unhesitatingly kicked the opponent's organs before becoming ashes. They have sweet faces, but when holding swords - how do they look like little butterflies carrying death.
The Mad Beggar Boy who had been depressed since he did not like to see the undead, had now become even more depressed from seeing the way junior brother Xiao Shuxiang fought.
He seemed to be unable to say anything more than to assume that the warriors in the Eastern Continent were insane people. If the Kupu-Kupu sect disciples alone could be this terrible, then it was not impossible for the disciples of other sects to do so as well.
CRAASH..!!
The Mad Beggar Boy's hand holding a bamboo stick slipped, he forgot to hold back the strength until one end of his staff pierced through the forehead of a cultivator's corpse and made his opponent's head break.
!!
The Mad Beggar Boy was shocked, his face pale when he saw the corpse body of the cultivator beside him toppled headlessly. He pursed his lips and as if preparing to hail Jing Mi back.
On the other hand, the sky above Xiao Shuxiang's fight was like it was about to split in two. He was too much into his fight until the forest that previously seemed shady now changed so drastically.
