“?”
When seeing all the people looking at him, Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows and pondered for a while. Soon, he held his head up high and appeared invincible. “Wanna challenge ? You are not up for it. Brother, you go and play with him.”
“Pfff!”
Many young mistresses let out a mocking smile. So even didn’t bother to have another look at Jiang Yi. He was so arrogant just now but didn’t accept the challenge when soone asked him to fight publicly. Naturally, everybody looked down upon him at the mont.
Not up for it? As a Qian Clan’s subordinate, who did he think he was? His behavior made everyone despise him more.
Soon, Shui Qianrou, Dugu Yan, Xia Feiyu, and Jiang Yiliu showed their contempt as well. The doubt in their eyes disappeared. Vice Principal Liu of Mt. Spirit Beast College looked away from the young man. He should not be Jiang Yi and was just of similar size as Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi was aggressive and was never intimidated by a fight. This was well-known on the continent. He could not act cowardly in such situation.
“Alright. Qian Tie will fight with you!”
A peak-stage Soul Travel Realm expert stood up and said. Jiang Yi drew back and hid behind Qian Wanguan. He felt less attention and nodded in secret.
This was the kind of effect that he intended to create. Many people were suspecting him. If he accepted the challenge now, he might risk exposing himself. Therefore, he pretended to be frightened just now in order to let down others’ guard.
Besides, he was rather new to the Wen Fight and Wu Fight. If he joined the Wu Fight, he was afraid that—as soon as he gave out a big move—he would reveal his identity imdiately. Thus, he would like to observe others first and found the tricks of the Wen Fight.
Zhan Wushuang and the other two didn’t think too much about it. Jiang Yi was their bedrock. He could do whatever he wanted, and they could just be the audience. Obviously, they would never associate Jiang Yi with a coward. Such occasion was like house-playing to Jiang Yi. What had he not experienced before?
When... was he ever a coward?
Qian Tie was in his forties and was at the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm. He used a soft sword and had a formidable aura. All the Qian Clansn were all reassured by Jiang Yi’s presence. They could just go all-out to fight.
Thus, after Qian Tie stepped out, he turned to Xiao Ming and said, “How about I play with you?”
“Since you are asking for death, I’ll give that to you. Co on!”
Xiao Ming smiled again, and the scar on his mouth writhed, which made so young mistresses shudder with fear. He stood still proudly and didn’t attack. He was waiting for Qian Tie to start.
“Alright!”
Qian Tie tapped on the ground with one leg and launched his body to the front. He flew forward like a gentle breeze and was even much faster than Qian Xue. His movent was unpredictable. His body looked blurry. It was impossible to determine the next direction he was heading towards. His movent technique was extrely strange.
“It’s Brother Tie’s wind elent dao pattern—Shadow of Wind.”
Now it was Qian Xue’s turn to explain to Jiang Yi. Nodding, Jiang Yi had seen a brief introduction of the dao pattern in the library collection of the Starfall Island. There were nine lower-tier wind elent Dao patterns. One of them was called Shadow of Wind.
It looked like Qian Tie had yet to reach the phenonal stage. According to the introduction he read, when a martial artist had reached the phenonal stage, he would be just like the shadow of the wind. It was impossible for martial artists, who were at the sa tier, to see him.
“Hehe!”
Xiao Ming showed no sign of panic; he stood still indifferently. He didn’t even turn to Qian Tie, but his ears moved slightly. Apparently, he was listening to the wind to sense the movent.
Jiang Yi approved in secret. It was a great response to such circumstance. If Xiao Ming relied on his eyes to determine the direction, he would definitely get himself killed. However, no matter what Qian Tie’s actions were—eventually, he had to make a sound. As long as Xiao Ming judged by the sound, he could find out the real Qian Tie.
Tsk-Tsk!
Qian Tie started his attack and stabbed towards Xiao Ming with his soft sword. The soft sword could even oscillate. It sneaked out like a venomous snake. No one could be certain where the sword would eventually go.
Moreover, when this soft sword was shaking, it let out an extrely irritating low howl. Many average-strength young mistresses couldn’t help covering up their ears. However... even so, that sound was still reverberating in everyone’s head. So people were so distressed that they were close to vomit blood!
“This is the Soft Chant of Wind. Brother Tie has obtained the phenonal success for this dao pattern. It’s really powerful.”
Jiang Yi felt horrible as well. After hearing Qian Xue’s explanation, his curiosity trumped the discomfort in his ears.
Today was really eye-opening. This was the true power of dao pattern. Perhaps, Xiao Ming should suffer a hundred tis more than them. Maybe he couldn’t even fight back now.
To everyone’s surprise—!
When the soft sword was about to touch Xiao Ming, his body suddenly moved. The iron hook in his hand started spinning violently all of a sudden. The iron hook’s movent was not special. It just seed to shroud Xiao Ming in. It seed... it was trying to sway away Qian Tie’s sword.
Sneering, Qian Tie continued stabbing with his soft sword. His eyes appeared murderous. He seed confident of winning the fight. There was no way to sway away his soft sword, for the sword was soft—as suggested by its na.
Clang-Clang!
There was a clash of tals. As expected, the soft sword was not swung away. Instead, after taking a turn, it was thrust towards Xiao Ming’s left shoulder. The soft sword was moving so fast that Xiao Ming didn’t have ti to react. He was about to lose his arm!
Just at that mont, an unexpected change suddenly happened!
A white light shone on the iron hook. It jumped to Qian Tie’s soft sword like a white snake and then entered his body.
“Ahhh!”
Qian Tie’s soft sword was only one inch away from Xiao Ming’s arm and was just about to cut his arm off. However, Qian Tie couldn’t continue his attack at all. The white snake had entered Qian Tie’s body. He started to tremble non-stop. His black hair bristled, and his eyes rolled back. His nose and mouth were smoking and so was his robe. A burnt sll ca from his body.
“Heaven-and-earth dao pattern, thunder dao pattern! No, Qian Tie was over.”
Jiang Yi’s eyes shrunk as he exclaid. It was clear that Qian Tie was struck by lightning. That white snake was, in fact, a thunderbolt. This Xiao Clan’s peak-stage Soul Travel Realm Expert was even able to realize a heaven-and-earth dao pattern and a thunder dao pattern.
As expected!
After struck by lightning, Qian Tie kept trembling. How would Xiao Ming let go of such a good opportunity? He wielded the iron hook like a scythe. The sharp hook easily slit Qian Tie’s lower abdon. Xiao Ming then gave the hook a hard pull.
“Ahhh!”
Many young mistresses cried out in distress. They felt nauseous and bent over. Many young masters also could help but look away. All the Qian Clansn, Zhan Clansn, and Yun Clansn looked wretched and murderous because... almost all of Qian Tie’s organs were pulled out by Xiao Ming. His intestines were scattered all over the floor; it was horrendous.
“Sit down! Qian Xue, bring Qian Tie back for recuperation.”
Qian Wanguan was quite an honorable man. Slamming down the table, he shouted to stop the Qian Clansn. Qian Xue imdiately flew over and held the dying Qian Tie. Both flew out of the cabin.
“Hehe!”
Xiao Ming sneered. That centipede scar wriggled again which appeared usually terrifying. He swept over all the Qian Clansn. Raising his iron hook, he said, “Anyone wants to revenge him. Co and be the next!”
Then Qian Clansn were frightened by his diabolical smile. All looked hesitant. No one was confident to win Xiao Ming. This heaven-and-earth dao pattern was too powerful. Once hit by the lightning, they would be dying, like Qian Tie.
“Ke-Ke!”
Just then, Jiang Yi suddenly stood up. Picking his ears, he walked out and said nonchalantly, “I’ll play with you.”
“Wow!”
After a brief deadly silence, the room was in an uproar. Xiao Ming’s thunder dao pattern was too overbearing. No one in the cabin was a hundred percent certain of winning. Why did this coward suddenly volunteer?
