However, compared to the joy of the crowd, Ximen Guang still had his head lowered. He did not show the slightest bit of curiosity and continued to massage the burly man's shoulders.
"Ximen Guang, let's go."
However, at this moment, an extremely familiar voice suddenly entered Ximen Guang's ears. When he heard this voice, Ximen Guang's originally gloomy face could not help but turn into a joyful one.
When Ximen Guang looked at the man standing at the entrance, he did not know why, but at this moment, this man, who should have made him feel extreme fear and hatred, made him feel an indescribable sense of joy. It was like a ray of light in the darkness, giving him a glimmer of hope. That man was naturally Xing Jue.
After Xing Jue agreed to Protector Liu's request, he contacted the lady who was in charge of receiving him. That lady then immediately contacted Elder Tan. When Elder Tan learned of Xing Jue's request, he happily brought Xing Jue to the Dark Hall.
"Xing Jue, why is it you?" Looking at Xing Jue, who was looking at him with a faint smile, Ximen Guang was in disbelief. He could not believe his own eyes.
"Why can't it be me?"
"Cut the crap, hurry up and follow me. Your Protector Liu is still waiting for you." Seeing this, Xing Jue impatiently urged.
"Aye!!" After hearing Xing Jue's words, Ximen Guang quickly nodded his head in excitement. He then stood up and prepared to walk toward the entrance.
Pa.
However, just as Ximen Guang stood up, a thick and powerful palm firmly gripped onto Ximen Guang's wrist like a pair of iron pincers. Waves of bone-piercing pain caused Ximen Guang to be unable to move even half a step.
"Kid, where are you going?"
At the same time, an ice-cold voice rang out beside Ximen Guang. It turned out that the burly man, who had reached the high-level Battle-King level, had grabbed Ximen Guang. At this moment, the burly man was looking at Ximen Guang with a murderous gaze.
"Xing Jue, save me." Seeing this, Ximen Guang's expression changed greatly as waves of chilliness spread from the bottom of his heart. He then hurriedly asked Xing Jue who was not far away for help.
"Save you? Just him? "
"Hahaha, laughable, too laughable."
Seeing that Ximen Guang had actually asked for help from Xing Jue, the burly man suddenly burst out laughing. Under his lead, everyone in the hall laughed out loud. As Xing Jue had concealed his aura, to them, Xing Jue was just an ordinary person.
"Do you want that hand of yours or not? Or do you not want your life? "
However, at this moment, an extremely calm but cold voice slowly came out of Xing Jue's mouth and finally poured into everyone's ears.
"What? Did I hear that right? "
"You said that you want my life? Hahaha … "However, Xing Jue's ice-cold words were met with another burst of laughter from the crowd. It was as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world. Their laughter was extremely savage.
"Elder Tan, will it be troublesome to kill a criminal here?" However, Xing Jue only smiled indifferently at the crowd's mockery. Then, he slowly turned around and asked with a smile, "Provoking the people of my Alliance Mansion is a crime punishable by death.
"Provoking the people of my Union Mansion is a capital offense. Little Xing Jue, you don't have to show mercy." Right after Xing Jue finished speaking, Elder Tan's indifferent voice sounded from outside the spirit formation gate.
"Kid, who exactly are you?"
After hearing the conversation between Xing Jue and Elder Tan, the burly man also began to feel uneasy. He withdrew the smile on his face and asked with a grave tone.
It was not only the burly man. At this moment, the crowd in the hall also withdrew their savage smiles and looked at Xing Jue with uneasy expressions. This was because, from the previous conversation with Elder Tan, they suddenly realized that Xing Jue had a close relationship with the Alliance Mansion. At this moment, they finally began to feel uneasy.
"Buzz ~"
However, Xing Jue did not pay any attention to the burly man's question. His body slightly trembled, and the dark-red Battle Qi slowly rose from Xing Jue's body like a flame. At the same time, an invisible and powerful aura swept across the hall like a violent hurricane.
"Advanced Combat King, he's actually an advanced Combat King!"
"How is this possible? This is impossible, impossible! "
Looking at Xing Jue, who was surrounded by dark-red Battle Qi, the crowd began to cry out in disbelief. They could not believe that someone as young as Xing Jue could actually reach the level of a advanced Combat King.
"Hmph, you're just an advanced Combat King. Do you really think that you, who is also an advanced Combat King, are a match for me?"
Seeing that Xing Jue was determined to fight him, the burly man once again roared with a ferocious expression. Although he was also shocked by the strength Xing Jue had displayed, he did not think that Xing Jue was a match for him.
"Swoosh."
However, right at this moment, a sudden gust of wind blew, and Xing Jue suddenly disappeared from his previous position. If it wasn't for the remnant Battle Qi, the crowd would not believe that Xing Jue was really standing there a moment ago.
"Puchi."
"Ahhh ~ ~ ~"
Just when the crowd was shocked by Xing Jue's disappearance, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly rang out from the burly man's direction.
At this moment, the crowd was even more astonished to find that the burly man was lying on the ground with a pale face. Furthermore, his right arm had been chopped off.
Xing Jue, who had disappeared earlier, was now right beside him. However, in Xing Jue's right hand, there was an additional glowing longsword that carried with it gusts of wind. Obviously, Xing Jue had chopped off the burly man's right arm.
"I, I'll fight you to the death!"
Right at this moment, the burly man with the severed arm suddenly stood up. At the same time, streams of powerful energy began to rapidly surge within his body. Furthermore, his body began to distort. He was actually going to self-destruct his soul.
After discovering this situation, everyone present revealed a look of fear. They were well aware of the terrifying power of a soul self-destruction.
In such a narrow space, how terrifying would the soul self-destruction of a high-grade Combat King be? Perhaps even the barrier set up by a Combat Emperor would be destroyed, and all of them would die without a trace.
"Puchi."
However, just when the crowd thought that they were dead for sure, a shocking scene occurred once again. At the same time as blood splattered out, the glowing longsword in Xing Jue's hand had already pierced through the burly man's chest.
Furthermore, at this moment, even the burly man's aura had completely dissipated. The burly man was actually killed, and even his soul was completely destroyed. His soul self-destruction was actually stopped by Xing Jue.
"Soul self-destruction. Such an idiotic method. Do not ever use it in front of someone who is completely stronger than you, because you won't stand a chance at all."
After killing the burly man with a single strike, Xing Jue indifferently said to the burly man, who no longer had any aura, yet still had a face filled with astonishment.
"Huhuhuhu."
Right at this moment, a bizarre flame suddenly rose from the burly man's chest. In an instant, it surrounded the burly man and burned him to ashes.
"Ximen Guang, let's go."
After thoroughly finishing off the burly man, Xing Jue lightly clapped his hands together. Then, without caring about how the crowd was looking at him, he directly walked out of the Spirit Formation gate. Ximen Guang quickly followed after him, leaving behind the crowd, who had faces filled with panic and were dumbfounded by the previous scene.
After rescuing Ximen Guang, Xing Jue directly brought him to the palace the Alliance Residence had prepared for him. Xing Jue still had some things he needed to ask Ximen Guang face to face.
At this moment, in the room Xing Jue resided in, Xing Jue, Ying Huang, Ximen Guang and Protector Liu were all present. In order to prevent others from eavesdropping on their conversation, the Ying Huang had even laid down a layer of Spirit Formation in the room.
* plop. *
"Xing Jue, thank you for disregarding our past enmity and saving my life." Right after the Ying Huang finished laying the Spirit Formation, Ximen Guang suddenly knelt on the ground and spoke to Xing Jue with a face filled with regret.
"If you want to thank someone, then thank Protector Liu. I only saved you because of him. However, I would like to know the relationship between your Ximen family and the Fenghua Mi City. "Xing Jue lightly smiled at Ximen Guang's thanks.
Even if Ximen Guang could forget the grudges between them, Xing Jue was unable to do so. If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to become the champion of the Auction Assembly, Xing Jue would not have saved Ximen Guang.
"Actually, my Ximen family is a descendant of the Fenghua Mi City. Back then, after the Fenghua Mi City's city lord and several management protectors mysteriously disappeared, internal strife arose in the Fenghua Mi City.
"Fenghua Mi City had internal strife due to the struggle for power. After that, my great ancestor led my clansmen to leave Fenghua Mi City and established the Soaring Tiger Hall in the outskirts."
"However, my great ancestor did not forget about the Fenghua Mi City. Hence, he passed down the key and told his descendants about the Fenghua Mi City. He hoped that after a thousand years, someone would be able to use the key to open the Great Bewitching Formation and obtain the Fenghua Mi City's inheritance," Ximen Guang explained the Ximen family's history when he heard Xing Jue's question.
"In that case, how do we open the Great Bewitching Formation?" Xing Jue continued to ask curiously. To Xing Jue, compared to the Ximen family, Xing Jue was more interested in the method to open the Great Bewitching Formation.
"In fact, I am not too clear about the specifics. I only know that the Great Bewitching Formation contains all the treasures of the Fenghua Mi City. Moreover, the Great Bewitching Formation is a very profound formation. If you don't have the key, entering the Great Bewitching Formation is a dead end.
"Therefore, only the person who holds the key can obtain the Fenghua Mi City's inheritance." Seeing Xing Jue's question, Ximen Guang explained again.
"So that's how it is."
Looking at that sincere gaze of Ximen Guang, Xing Jue discovered that the current Ximen Guang was like a completely different person compared to that time. Moreover, Xing Jue knew that the current Ximen Guang was not lying or concealing anything. But at this moment, Xing Jue also guessed that the other descendant of the Fenghua Mi City, Ximen Yu, must also possess the key to open the Great Bewitching Formation.
