"Chief Xia, Langxin responded to . At noon today, twelve o'clock, he arranged to et
across the river."
Upon seeing Xia Liu, Liu Xiong pointed to the river behind Xia Liu and said.
"Oh? What did he say?"
"He said to wait for him to arrive before proceeding with the next step of the plan."
Xia Liu nodded. As long as Langxin dared to appear within his Divine Sense range, he had a way to deal with him.
"Noon, huh? In that case, let's wait then."
Xia Liu's gaze was fixed across the river. With his speed, he could cross this expanse of river in the blink of an eye.
Ti passed quickly, and soon it was eleven fifty.
The people of the Xiao Family also gathered atop a certain pavilion.
They all wanted to see Xia Liu display his prowess in handling Langxin.
Xiao Jingyun and Bai Xiang stood by the window of the room where Xia Liu resided.
This spot offered the best view of the place where Liu Xiong and Langxin were to et.
Apart from the two of them, quite a few in the Xiao Family noticed the atmosphere enveloping the residence today.
On the river, Liu Xiong was rowing a bamboo raft toward the opposite side.
On the vast grassland, except for Liu Xiong, there was no other figure.
"Chief Xia, do you think Langxin will show up?"
At the window, Xiao Jingyun focused her gaze on Xia Liu, who was ditating with closed eyes.
"Perhaps."
Xia Liu couldn't be certain, but he was sure that the mont Langxin showed up, he would bow down.
"Chief Xia, will we get to see your abilities today?"
Bai Xiang's eyes sparkled. To her, Xia Liu was the idol, the Heavenly Mansion Chief.
If she could witness her idol display his skills today, her longing would be worthwhile.
"As you wish!"
Xia Liu suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze locking onto the opposite side of the river.
A figure appeared there.
Dressed in white with a black hat.
His face was covered with a black veil, revealing only his eyes.
Those eyes were terrifying, as they lacked pupils.
Walking on the street, he might be mistaken for a blind person.
For this pupil-less, white-eyed Langxin, Xia Liu was eager to engage.
For he had never encountered a Technique Master before.
Today was the perfect opportunity to et one.
"Langxin, you are right on ti."
Liu Xiong taunted.
"Of course. Once the old man ascends peacefully, we can proceed with the next step of our plan."
A hoarse voice erged from under the black veil.
Langxin, with only his pupils visible, left one wondering about the expression on his face.
"Not right! The old man still has a breath!"
Upon approaching the Xiao Family, Langxin realized that his magic had not dissipated.
This indicated the old man was still alive!
"Langxin, I've suffered greatly from your deception. Why use ?"
Liu Xiong's face shifted.
"Oh, now that you know, why wait? Aren't you going to strike against ?"
Langxin wasn't in a hurry because he was confident that even a hundred Liu Xiongs couldn't match him.
"I know the vast difference between us. I revealed myself today because I'm tired, unwilling to remain your puppet. Before I die, I want to know why you target the Xiao Family?"
"Do you wish to die?"
Langxin chuckled eerily, "Without my consent, even if you desire death, it won't co. You are destined to be my puppet."
Liu Xiong's face darkened further.
After a long silence, he asked, "In that case, I have nothing to say, except one question: Why target the Xiao Family? After it's done, will I have a chance at freedom?"
"As for why target the Xiao Family, you don't need to know. Whether you gain freedom depends on my mood after it's accomplished."
Langxin spoke leisurely.
"If that's the case, then you should explain to him."
Liu Xiong nodded, realizing Xia Liu's prediction was accurate—Langxin wouldn't spare him.
From beginning to end, he had always been a pawn.
A pawn that Langxin could crush at will!
"Who is he?"
Suddenly, Langxin detected a hint of unease; his heart and soul trembled, unable to foresee what lay ahead.
"Langxin, I give you a chance. State the purpose of your magic, or else face the consequences: crippled and bone-broken!"
Amid Langxin's alarm, a commanding voice spread powerfully around the area.
Langxin's gaze focused in a specific direction.
On a rooftop across the river, Xia Liu stood with a graceful posture, hands clasped behind his back, exuding the majesty of a Grandmaster.
"Who are you?"
"The one to deal with you."
Xia Liu replied calmly.
"Oh? A yellow-haired brat, aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew?"
Langxin beca slightly interested in Xia Liu.
After all, Xia Liu looked so young.
Even as a martial artist, it's unlikely he possessed significant power.
Langxin was confident in facing a twelfth-layer Qi Cultivator.
A re martial artist was not worth his attention.
"If you don't cherish the chance, I'll show you the fate of sinners!"
As his words ended, Xia Liu silently activated the Five Elents Mantra.
With the unnoticed rise and fall of the Wind Riding Technique.
Xia Liu tapped the ground with his foot, and his body, like a Green Feather, gently landed on the river.
This scene shocked the entire Xiao Family.
Xia Liu's display directly overturned their worldview.
Soone in the world could defy reason, his body like a feather gliding through the air.
The most visually stunning was him standing on the water's surface without any supportive dium.
Only a legendary immortal could achieve such!
"Incredible!"
Bai Xiang was at a loss for words to describe her feelings.
In her heart, Xia Liu's cultivation reached Heaven-Reaching heights.
Effortlessly capable of slaying Heaven-Rank Warriors.
Seeing Xia Liu walk gracefully on water, Bai Xiang was excited.
This was his prowess!
Like an immortal walking on water!
Liu Xiong was equally shocked.
To walk on water effortlessly, it had to be an Innate-level martial artist.
Otherwise, impossible.
An Innate Warrior in his twenties!
Thinking of this, Liu Xiong almost couldn't resist kneeling.
"A true cultivator!"
Langxin had previously thought Xia Liu was just a martial artist, but observing his display and aura.
Confird!
Without a doubt, a cultivator.
"Langxin, before I reach the shore, if you confess what I want to know, consider it surrendering."
"Haha! Surrendering doesn't suit , and I doubt you'll trample
underfoot."
In wild laughter, Langxin pulled out a bone fan from behind.
The appearance of the bone fan quieted everything around him.
"Oh, is this the Technique Master's tool?"
"My Soul-Crushing Banner will surely kill you, this ignorant yellow-haired brat, right here!!"
"In that case, don't bla !"
Xia Liu's eyes sharp, his body started to blur.
When he reappeared, both feet were already on the shore.
"So fast!"
Murmured Langxin, brandishing the bone fan.
Invisibly, Xia Liu felt a force from all directions besieging him.
This force seed evil, yet also nature's spiritual energy, remarkably bizarre.
