"Who?"
The soft laughter seed distant as the horizon, yet close enough to be right in front of one’s eyes. Under Shi Xiaole’s spiritual search, akin to that of the Forbidden Martial Emperor, he could only discern a blurred shadow moving back and forth, elusive to capture.
"Handso young man, try calling ’sister’ so I can hear it," said the woman, giggling. Her voice was incredibly soft and sweet, like that of an eight- or nine-year-old girl, but her words were thick with teasing.
A breath of fragrance wafted by Shi Xiaole’s ear; by the ti he reacted, the woman’s trace was already gone. Her speed was too fast, even Shi Xiaole couldn’t keep up with her movents.
"Using your strength to bully the weak, Senior, don’t you find this a little boring?"
Aside from the Forbidden Martial Emperor, Shi Xiaole couldn’t think of anyone else who could leave him so utterly defenseless. To speak frankly, he might not be able to withstand a single move from Uncle Wang, but he certainly wouldn’t be so passive.
In the midst of playful laughter, a figure dressed in colorful clothes appeared a foot in front of Shi Xiaole.
Wearing her hair up in a flying hairstyle, she had a lon-seed face adorned with a pair of charming almond eyes, a straight, delicate nose, and lips thicker on the top and thinner on the bottom, now slightly turned up, giving off a sense of mischief and pride.
This woman was a head shorter than Shi Xiaole, probably about one ter sixty, but her svelte figure was well-proportioned. Raising her head, she looked every bit like a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old girl, yet only those with the keenest observation would notice the playfulness and detachnt in her almond eyes.
Seeing the woman in colorful clothes caused Shi Xiaole’s heart to sink sharply.
It was an indescribable feeling as though you know an elephant is dangerous, but it’s only when it’s standing right in front of you that you can truly understand the extent of the threat.
"Handso young man, how did you manage to get in here?"
The girl in colorful clothes cocked her head.
As far as she knew, to enter this place one must first go through treacherous trials, obtain the Color Crossing Command, and pass through the Resentnt Spirit Fog. Any single task would be enough to stump ninety-nine percent of the world’s heroes.
In countless years past, only four people had ever managed to accomplish all of this.
"To report to Senior, the junior honestly does not know; I just found myself walking in here," Shi Xiaole replied, not daring to be too brazen. To remain stubborn without understanding the situation was the behavior of a fool. Who knew what kind of temper this woman had?
"Pfft!"
The woman in colorful clothes couldn’t help but laugh at Shi Xiaole’s respectful deanor. "Handso young man, don’t be afraid, as long as you’re obedient, the beautiful madam won’t do anything to you," she said, her eyes reflecting deeper contemplation.
She did not believe the rules of the Colorless Realm could be broken, so there was only one explanation left: the young man in green before her was a genius whose talents did not pale in comparison to her own. No, considering his life force, he appeared to be much younger than she had been at that age.
"Hey, what’s your na?"
The beautiful madam tapped her dainty chin.
"I am Shi Xiaole, ’Shi’ as in ’stone,’ ’Xiao’ as in ’small,’ and ’le’ as in ’joy,’" Shi Xiaole answered.
"Such a poised person, yet with a na so naïve and amusing."
The beautiful madam laughed again and, with a quick movent, Shi Xiaole hadn’t even responded before his chin was held within her delicate hand. She exerted a slight force, inspecting him as if a libertine scrutinizing a lady, "Well-built, not bad at all. Alright, from now on, you’ll follow ."
Anyone would feel humiliated being teased by a woman this way, and Shi Xiaole was furious but dared not lash out. He had yet to use his final lethal move, but he had absolutely no confidence that it would defeat a Forbidden Martial Emperor.
"I do not agree!"
Just at that mont, a grating, sharp voice drowned out the beautiful madam’s laughter. Before Shi Xiaole could make sense of it, a large hand struck toward him with a terrifying force that looked like it could shatter the sky.
Without looking back, the beautiful madam raised her palm to et the attack.
Boom!
Crack crack crack...
The sky instantly split open, revealing a crack several dozens of feet wide as chaos flowed from the void, sweeping away vast tracts of land and mountains as if the scenery in a painting was being erased, a terrifying spectacle to behold.
"You’re causing trouble again?"
The beautiful granny’s gaze was frigid as she looked at a man nearby, who was unattractive and of short stature.
"You are the beautiful granny, and I am the ugly grandpa. We are a pair. As for this brat, let him die," the man said as he angrily charged forward, while the beautiful granny dragged Shi Xiaole along, constantly contending with him.
Shi Xiaole was both angry and annoyed. What beautiful granny and ugly grandpa? It was utter nonsense. However, the terrifying power of these two forced Shi Xiaole to be extrely vigilant.
The top five on the Emperor List were Forbidden Martial Emperors. In other words, both were top five experts on the Emperor List!
"Beauty, I’ve chased you for nine hundred and eighty-one years. During that ti, thirty-five thousand six hundred and eighty-two n have fancied you. I’ve killed them all. This kid will be next," the ugly grandpa said sinisterly.
Shi Xiaole frowned deeply at these words. Was this guy insane?
The beautiful granny angrily said, "You ugly fellow, this handso young man is different. If you dare to harm even a single hair on him, I will make you pay with your life."
"Then let’s try," retorted the ugly grandpa.
A fierce battle ensued between them, and their finger and palm strikes were so powerful that they punched hole after hole in the sky. Countless phantoms appeared and then dissipated rapidly.
Shi Xiaole, using his ntal power to make a comparison, ca to a shocking conclusion. Their attack speed was at least twice as fast as his own, and as for their strength, the difference was as vast as the heavens and the earth.
In the anti, the Life-Death Martial Way and Demon Martial Way started spinning out of control within him and had to be forcefully suppressed by Shi Xiaole, a result of the aura attracting each other.
This was because the beautiful granny and the ugly grandpa had both comprehended the Supre Martial Arts and reached a terrifying eleven out of ten in their realm!
"Pfft!"
Shi Xiaole was grazed by the aftereffects of their fierce battle, imdiately spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.
The ugly grandpa sneered heinously, attacking Shi Xiaole with even more ferocity. The beautiful granny, without saying a word, with murderous intent in her almond eyes, dragged Shi Xiaole with one hand and fought the ugly grandpa with the other.
But with their strength being equal, she inevitably couldn’t look after everything, and after a few exchanges, Shi Xiaole kept spitting out blood, not knowing how many of his ribs and ridians were broken.
Even worse were the martial energies of the ugly grandpa that continuously assaulted inside his body, not only intent on destroying his physique but also his four types of martial arts!
Whish, whish, whish.
Suddenly, a golden rain started falling from afar. The rain threads descended extrely slowly, and at first glance, looked like countless golden silkworms wriggling, emitting a soft rustling sound.
This beautiful scene caused both the beautiful granny and the ugly grandpa to change their expressions dramatically.
"Leave the kid behind, and you can go," a voice that was neither male nor female sounded from within the golden rain.
"Golden Silkworm, do you think I’m truly afraid of you?" the beautiful granny shouted coldly, her deanor clearly fraught with tension. The ugly grandpa said nothing but imdiately shielded the beautiful granny, his expression extrely grave.
"Last warning, or none of you will leave," Golden Silkworm said in an indifferent tone.
The beautiful granny’s eyes flickered with indecision. She looked at Shi Xiaole in her grasp, and then at the golden rain threads poised to strike in the distance. Finally, grinding her teeth in frustration, she tossed Shi Xiaole aside and swiftly left with the ugly grandpa.
Whoosh.
A strand of golden rain infiltrated Shi Xiaole’s body and in an instant, the martial energy from the ugly grandpa was rapidly eradicated. Shi Xiaole, wounded and half-kneeling on the ground, felt so weak that he couldn’t help but look up and say, "Thank you, senior, for saving my life!"
After speaking, his vision darkened, and he passed out.
