Everyone was shocked by the roar. The next moment, a surging power from Xiao Chen's body was sent out, and the entire stage was shaking. The ghost claw on the ground was suddenly shattered, and then he rushed to Luo Shangyan like a meteor.
In a flash, he flew over and sent Luo Shangyan back with a swung of his sleeve, while Ling Yingfeng's palm completely hit on his back.
"Puff!" A mouthful of blood gushed out as Xiao Chen fell back to the stage. Blood was still bleeding from his mouth. The punch had almost broken his heart and meridians. But at the next moment, something strange happened.
All his blood drops gathered together and flowed to the Blood Lotus Demon Blade in his hand. The red radiance of the blade suddenly surged countless times as the blade also started to vibrate. A faint, horrible voice rose from the inside. "Blood..."
The people's faces changed. It was not because of the strange voice came from the blade. They
Seeing Xiao Chen's eyebrows furrowed, Luo Shangyan asked, "What are you thinking?" Xiao Chen came to his senses, shook his head, and smiled. "Nothing." He asked again after a short silence, "By the way, where is Miss. Shen?" "I took her to the city and left." Xiao Chen nodded, thinking that the sect rules of this Thousand Feathers Sect were merciless. There was no friendship between the fellows. Suddenly, he thought of Qianyu Nishang. Wasn't she just such a person? If she had even a little bit of friendship, how could she frame him up with others? He gave her the Autumn Water in vain. Thinking of this, his heart felt very bitter, and he couldn't help sighing. Three days passed quickly, and the story that Xiao Chen fought two experts in one day had already been widely spread in Wu Province. Summoning the dragons, the Legendary Weapon recognizing him as owner, and the previous doings in the Immortals League Competition, which are
Xiaoyue looked deeply at him in silence, her gaze bespoke the doubts and suspicions swirling deep within her. The Flying-cloud Stone reached the barren and desolate desert after four hours of flying. Even the passing of summer did little to decrease the blistering swelter of the desert that stretched far into the horizon; a flat wasteland of death and despair. "Amitabha..." Xu Gu chanted morosely as he peered off the edge of the flying slab and saw bones being uncovered by the swirling dust and sand. Before long, they noticed the silhouette of the Wuwang Wind Cloud City amidst the vague mist of the desert, the only sign, and the concentration of life across the expanse of hundreds of miles that festooned with nothing but deathly emptiness. As they approached, dark clouds loomed ominously over the entire city. The pall of gloom enveloped the city in a wretched shade, hardly giving off any sign of rain. "Senior Xu Gu," Xiaoyue asked, "Do you s
The two female disciples grew frightened with despair, their faces watery pale as tears flowed down their faces. Sobbing hard, they struggled to stifle their sobs as they resisted any urge to beg for leniency. Xiaoyue, choking with tears, croaked, "Please... Teacher... N-no! Let me do it!" She drew the sword that hung from her waist and walked slowly towards the two other girls. The blade of Xiaoyue's sword shone coldly as she brandished her weapon, her seniors begging with soft and weepy whimpers, "P-please... Junior Sister... P-please n-no..." Tears rolled down Xiaoyue's cheeks. "I-I’m sorry... seniors," she gasped as she sank her blade into the chest of one of the girls. Xiao Chen could watch no more. He shook his head grimly and sighed. But with another step, the scene before him fleeted away, replaced with the view of another memory. He saw two young men, both clad in white, standing before each other face-to-face. There was an inexplic
Xiao Chen picked up his pace and bolted quickly towards the illusory domain of Xiaoyue's memory. Even before entering, an overwhelming gust of Devil Qi rammed into his face. It was so strong that he could have sworn that it was the strongest Devil Qi that he had ever encountered. The sky above the stronghold of the Thousand Feathers Sect began to fill with palls of dark clouds, blotting the sun from the idyllic floral terraces of the lush valley. Everyone inside the gardens was terrified by the sudden culmination of darkness hanging ominously overhead. Perfected Immortal Su Nian, with a group of seven elders, took into the sky, riding on their swords and began to assume orderly positions over the skies of a mountain peak. The eight of them, Xiao Chen realized, were defending the peak with a formation, the Universal Mystic-Yin Formation. "What is going on, Sect Leader! The will of Master Qianyu, the Founder, had claimed that the one buried below is a perso
"Please slowly, Master Xiaoyue," said Xu Gu, his palms clasped together before his chest, "What did you see inside the cave?" As she frowned dejectedly, Xiaoyue began to relate to the rest of the company of their encounter with the sea of mutated vampire bats. "Oh no, what shall we do now?" One of the female disciples cried in dismay. "Heh heh heh heh!" A sneering giggle rang suddenly. It was Liu Chengfeng of the Order of the Silvery Moon. He was eyeing Qin Xinyan, the student from the School of the Savage Flames, contemptuously. "Brother Xiao, Brother Ye, and I were at the front, helping to clear our way," he said loudly with a wicked grin, "Brother Qin, you were retreating with Brother Lu beside you. Did you fail to notice him, a person and an adult, disappearing too?" Qin Xinyan retorted with a cold glare, embittered, "Are you accusing me? It was chaotic in there! How did I know that he was with me? Are you accusing me of not saving him o
A frightened scream from one of the female disciples after an hour's trek confirmed Xiao Chen's suspicion: one of the girls had found scraps of bones and teeth under her feet; the company's journey in the tunnel was filled with reverberating noises of bones being crush under their feet. The company could hardly believe that they had trodden upon a path literally laid out with the remains of countless dead people that even as practitioners trained in arcane skills, some of them, especially the female disciples, began to vomit with disgust. Xiao Chen was the only one unperturbed by the horrific epiphany; it was not his first time encountering such a spectacle, although he did not expect that the master of the Wuwang Wind Cloud City, like the leader of the Skygale Sect before him, was trying to set up the Blood Soul Formation to resurrect a dead person. Activating the Blood Soul Formation would require a price of countless human souls in additi
Step by step, Mu Chengxue approached the Corpse Champion with a heavy pace. Everyone could hardly believe their own ears, wondering if there was something wrong with their hearing. She had just called the dead man her brother! Confused and puzzled, the company could not understand what was happening; only Xiao Chen's and Yu Yifeng's expressions turned grim. Realizing what was happening, Yu Yifeng was the first to react. "Miss Mu! Come back! It's dangerous!" He exclaimed frantically. But his desperate warnings fell on deaf ears; as if she had heard nothing from him, Mu Chengxue only continued walking towards the corpse slowly, her face now drenched with pouring tears. "Brother..." she gasped between her convulsive sobs, "It's me... It's your sister..." What a horrific twist it was that a long-lost brother and his sister who had yearned for years to see him again had to meet in such fashion. Was this one of the difficulties in their life that
"Hahahaha..." Xiao Chen emitted a peal of frenzied giggles as he watched dazedly at the unsheathed Autumn Water in its magnificent grandeur, his face filled with melancholic misery. His weird and insane laughter caught everyone by surprise. The whole company was captivated by the divine splendor of the Autumn Water only to be distracted by his sudden change of demeanor. The brief episode did not go unnoticed by Xiaoyue; but being in the thick of battle against a foe so powerful, she could not afford being disturbed. With a flick of her finger, the Autumn Water answered her call with a high-pitched ring and shot towards the Corpse Champion in a blinding flash of light! The epic charge of the Autumn Water at its foe was so awesome that the Corpse Champion could feel the raging intensity of its force. For the first time in this battle, it sensed danger closing in. The zombie channeled its powers, the evil Qi exuding from its foul person billowed like a stron
