Chapter 587: A Little Trouble!
As he got closer, Xia Fei finally got a good look at that person. He was a wretched middle-aged man with a carefully trimmed mustache. His small, round eyes were staring right at Xia Fei. It was clear that he had not expected Xia Fei to react so quickly and try to take his life right from the get-go!
"Wildstorm!"
His left fist glowed with white light as he punched at the man. At the same time, Xia Fei's right hand drew an arc as he stabbed the Blood Crystal into that man's ribs!
With a flip of his hand, the man's palm suddenly began to gather shiny metal fragments. This metal had been extracted from the soil. Aside from his invisibility ability, he was also an adept of the Law of Matter! As for that dark-red triangular dagger aimed at his ribs, he paid it no heed, merely raising an arm to block it.
This person's reaction was fast. It had to be said that Xia Fei's attack had been launched in that split second. He planned to block Xia Fei's punch head-on, risking his left arm to block the Blood Crystal. As long as he could avoid Xia Fei's first round of attacks, he would have a chance to turn the tables!
* Bang! * * Squelch! *
Two completely different sounds rang out at the same time. The first was Xia Fei's fist striking the man's metal shield, while the second was Blood Crystal piercing his arm!
"Not good!"
That man suddenly felt dizzy, and his left arm immediately lost all feeling!
The moment Blood Crystal pierced through his left arm, not only did he lose a lot of blood, but it was also as if someone had sent a monster into his body. The monster invaded his body through his blood vessels and began to tear at his organs!
Intense pain!
That man's eyes were filled with fear!
A monster sucking his blood and even burrowing into his body and tearing at his body? This was practically double the torture!
Xia Fei had no way of knowing what his opponent was feeling, but from the change in his eyes, he could guess that Blood Crystal had not simply been devouring blood after being revived!
That man panicked and desperately tried to break free, but the Blood Crystal would not let him go. It was as if it had grown teeth, biting down on his arm!
"Ah!"
With a scream, his arm rapidly withered like a withered vine in the desert. His skin was no longer elastic, and his muscles were withering!
The will to live triumphed over the pain and fear. That man struggled, but his entire arm was torn off by Blood Crystal! The scene was too horrible to watch!
Xia Fei was startled. He could clearly sense the change in Blood Crystal. The more his opponent struggled to break free, the tighter Blood Crystal latched onto him. It was like a magnet, firmly glued to his opponent, and it would not give up until it sucked all the blood from his body!
"Could this be the power of the Blood Crystal after it was resurrected? Using gravity to drag the enemy to death? " Xia Fei asked himself in his mind. He had no idea that the Blood Crystal's cruelty was not limited to just delaying the enemy. It would also savagely chomp down on the enemy's internal organs! At this moment, the enemy's internal organs were already damaged! Even if he cut off his arm and freed himself from the Blood Crystal, he still wouldn't be able to escape the Grim Reaper's pursuit!
Cruelty, unscrupulous cruelty!
As expected of an incomparably sinister and bloodthirsty divine weapon. After being revived, the Blood Crystal was slowly revealing its savage nature!
Ka-cha!
His body was separated from his arm, and the man's screams echoed through the night sky!
The Blood Crystal's dark red body had become brighter because of the blood it had absorbed, and the arm that was hanging from the blade was like a black tree branch. There wasn't a single shred of vitality left in it!
Puchi!
Without waiting for the man to fall, Xia Fei stabbed the Blood Crystal into his heart!
This time, he no longer had a chance to escape. His eyes rolled back, and his body withered in three seconds!
"Hurry and get out of here! We'll be discovered by the guards! "Phantom cried out in alarm.
Xia Fei hurriedly pulled out the Blood Crystal and prepared to flee the crime scene, but before he could even take a step, a white light suddenly attacked him from behind!
"Crafty Approach!"
Xia Fei forcefully twisted his body and crossed his arms, preparing to take this attack!
This was a classic spatial tear attack. It was powerful, and the attacker was much stronger than Xia Fei. Xia Fei's brows furrowed. He was not sure if he could take this sudden attack!
* Whoosh ~ *
Xia Fei had already prepared himself to be heavily injured, but this spatial tear suddenly rose less than a meter away from him, shooting straight into the clouds!
"Xia Fei! How could it be you?! "There was a flash of light, and Yuhua appeared next to Xia Fei.
"That was close! I almost injured you!" Yuhua exclaimed in shock.
Xia Fei's forehead was already drenched in cold sweat. It was no wonder that this attack was so fast and powerful that even with his speed and movement technique, he could not escape. It turned out that it was Great Law Emperor Yuhua who had unleashed it.
If Yuhua had not pulled back at the last moment, the consequences would have been dire.
Yuhua glanced at the withered corpse on the ground and frowned. "That's the patriarch's friend, Great Law Sovereign Qian Yuli. Why did you kill him? The patriarch will surely blame you if he finds out! "
Xia Fei said nothing. Was he supposed to tell Yuhua that he had killed him because he had discovered the demon Oro?
"Don't panic. I have my ways." Yuhua lightly patted Xia Fei on the shoulder.
* Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh! *
Ten-some figures suddenly appeared. The Yu family's guards had already arrived, and the one leading them was actually Yu Peng.
"Xia Fei, Yuhua, why are the two of you here?" Yu Peng asked, his hands on his hips.
…
"Thank you for covering me up." Seeing that Yu Peng had led his men in the wrong direction, Xia Fei let out a long sigh and said.
Yuhua's expression was very solemn. "I can help you for a while, but I can't help you forever. This person is the Patriarch's friend, so he will definitely investigate this matter. No matter what reason you have, you shouldn't have killed him."
His eyes swept over the ground, and the withered corpse's state of death shocked Yuhua. It was clear that he had been tortured painfully before his death. Yuhua had arrived a little late, so he did not know what method Xia Fei had used to kill him.
"Listen to me. The Dragon Ascension Conclave is still not over, so you need to return to White Horse Constellation as soon as possible and leave the Yu family. I'll inform you as soon as there's any news. If things go south, run and never come back," Yuhua sternly said. "You don't understand at all. The patriarch may seem gentle, but he's actually ruthless. If he finds out that you killed his friend, you'll definitely suffer a terrible fate."
Xia Fei frowned, but he did not say anything.
"Thank you!" Xia Fei firmly nodded. This was not the first time Yuhua had helped him, so he was very grateful to the man.
"Stop looking. Let's go. I'll cover this place for you," Yuhua said again. "Remember, leave early tomorrow morning. Leave quietly and quietly. Find a quiet place in White Horse Constellation and wait for news. I'll inform you as soon as anything happens."
Several minutes later, Xia Fei left the valley south of Roaring Tiger Park. Yu Peng had also returned with his men. Of course, there would be no result if they went in the wrong direction.
After cleaning up the corpse, Yu Peng ordered his men to take it away and report to the patriarch, Yujiang, the next morning.
"Are you sure you want to protect Xia Fei?" Yu Peng asked in a low voice. He was no fool and could roughly guess what was going on.
Yuhua was noncommittal. "I've said it before. I didn't kill him, and Xia Fei didn't kill him."
Yu Peng smiled and pointed in the direction of the capital city. "There's no point in telling me. It's fine as long as the patriarch believes you. I've noticed that your relationship with Xia Fei is quite good. I hope that this kid who often gets into trouble is worth your attention. "
Yuhua calmly said, "You won't understand. You won't understand even if I tell you."
…
White Horse Constellation, Dragon Ascension Martial Hall's branch hall.
An unusually heated discussion had been going on for a very long time, but alas, there was no answer.
Besides Chief Examiner Lu Qiuyan, Beast Taming Master Nie Ying, Fourth Examiner Khedira, and the people in charge of the other rounds, the martial hall had even sent one of Dragon Ascension's Four Heavenly Kings, Busey.
In Dragon Ascension Martial Hall, other than Hall Master Kuzan, the Four Heavenly Kings had the most authority and the highest cultivation. For Busey to personally attend this preliminary examination was enough to show how much importance the martial hall placed on it.
Lu Qiuyan's face was cold. She, who had always been known as the Iron Lady, said, "Lord Busey, I don't quite understand what you mean. Since the instigator of all this is candidate Xia Fei, why don't we just take him out of the examination?"
Busey was black, the only human of Dragon Ascension's Four Heavenly Kings. He looked very young, but those who were familiar with him knew that he had been at the hall master's side for eighty years, so his actual age was probably close to two hundred.
Busey's greatest advantage was that he was unmoving, sitting there like a statue. Even when he spoke, he only opened and closed his mouth, expressionless like a robot.
"There's no evidence." Busey's answer was simple.
Lu Qiuyan frowned. "Is Master Nie Ying's testimony not enough? Yes, Xia Fei's methods are ingenious, and we don't have firsthand evidence, but I don't understand. If our Dragon Ascension Martial Hall wants to take out a candidate, do we need to provide evidence? "
Lu Qiuyan was right. The mighty Dragon Ascension, the apex of martial arts, did not need evidence to take out a candidate!
"Nie Ying broke the rules himself. If not for him, things wouldn't be this troublesome," Busey coldly said.
The thin old man, Nie Ying, hurriedly lowered his head. He was the focus of the debate. Everyone in the venue had seen him use law power to control exotic beasts in order to embarrass Xia Fei. This was the greatest problem for the Dragon Ascension Martial Hall. How could the mighty Dragon Ascension Martial Hall interfere with the rules of the examination?
The debate continued, and no one could come up with a perfect solution that could punish Xia Fei while preserving the face of the martial hall.
With a cold snort, Busey expressionlessly stood up and left the conference room, leaving the other examiners behind.
Following the corridor to a secluded room, Busey pushed open the door. Inside, a white-clothed youth had his legs propped up on a table and was whistling. Upon seeing Busey enter, this person hurriedly stood up and said, "Uncle Busey, you're here."
Many of the examiners would never forget this youth, for he was the youngest son of the Dragon Ascension Martial Hall's Hall Master, Kuzan Feng.
Nodding, Busey found a sofa near the door and sat down.
Two inconspicuous creases appeared on the forehead of the stone humanoid Busey. He, who had always maintained his composure, was actually vexed over something.
"You're saying that the candidate called Xia Fei might have the bloodline of the Skywing Clan?" Busey sternly asked.
There was no such thing as an airtight wall in this world. Yujiang and Yuhua knew about Xia Fei's background, and now, even Busey, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Dragon Ascension, knew about it!
