Mr. Lu Xun once said that if one did not explode in silence, one would perish in silence. Clearly, Wen Xiao chose the former. He wanted to explode, to explode out all the unhappiness in his heart!
Explode! The flames of anger instantly ignited. Wen Xiao's body carried a suffocating aura of anger as he charged towards Xu Yun with such ferocity that it was too late to cover one's ears! Forget about ordinary people, even an Earth Profound Realm expert like Xu Yun was caught off guard by this speed!
When Wen Xiao's knife-like hand viciously sliced towards Xu Yun's throat, Xu Yun had no choice but to swiftly retreat in response! It was already too late to meet force with force. Xu Yun did not dare to guarantee that he could withstand this ferocious move. Other than dodging, there was no other way!
Wen Xiao's attack missed and he sneered. Without giving anyone a chance to react, he immediately struck again. A treacherous kick directly hooked upwards, aiming straight for Xu Yun's vital spot! Xu Yun, who had just dodged Wen Xiao's attack, no longer had any room to retreat. He could only swiftly raise his arms to block this attack!
If not for Xu Yun's timely reaction, this kick would have caused serious internal injuries! Even though Xu Yun had already gathered Earth Terminus Qi to protect his body, he still felt numbness in his arms! This meant that Wen Xiao's strength was rather terrifying! He was definitely not below Xu Yun!
Xu Yun was rather shocked. He did not expect that after not seeing him for so many years, Wen Xiao's strength had actually improved by leaps and bounds. However, in Wen Xiao's moves and inner breath, Xu Yun also felt that something was amiss. This kind of power had an indescribable feeling, giving people an especially uncomfortable feeling.
Very quickly, Wen Xiao's third attack had already struck towards Xu Yun again! This time, Xu Yun did not choose to dodge. Instead, he borrowed the force to neutralize Wen Xiao's heavy punch! A move of Cloud Hand was executed to perfection, easily resolving the crisis.
Wen Xiao's three consecutive moves were ruthless and deadly. All of them were meant to kill, aiming straight for vital spots! If it wasn't for Xu Yun's quick reaction, he would have been dead by now. How could Yang Zhen, who was curled up at the side, care about this? He had already hugged his head and squatted in a corner, afraid of accidentally injuring himself.
Yu Meiren and Guoguo did not see clearly what had happened, but based on Wen Xiao's aura, they knew that something very dangerous must have happened. Wen Xiao's overbearing aura made people feel especially oppressed.
Wen Xiao was a little surprised. He had attacked three times in a row, but he had not really caused any damage to Xu Yun! Although Xu Yun was forced to dodge and parry, he was unable to hurt Xu Yun at all!
Wen Xiao was naturally surprised by this. With his current strength, he thought that he had enough strength to severely injure and defeat Xu Yun in a short period of time! However, Xu Yun was completely unscathed after his merciless three moves! Wen Xiao was unable to accept this fact.
After all, he had sold his soul to his inner demon in order to obtain such supreme power! When he sold his soul to his inner demon, he knew that he could obtain the power he wanted. Endless power. That power could even allow him to challenge the king of the underground world.
Of course, if this power wanted to continuously improve and increase, it would require his hostility and murderous aura. With these, he could purify his inner demon and provide him with greater power, allowing him to obtain greater strength.
For so many years, Wen Xiao had been immersed in the improvement of his strength. He believed that he definitely had enough strength to widen the gap between him and Xu Yun. However, today, he realized that he still had not widened the gap between him and Xu Yun.
What made Wen Xiao even more confused was that Xu Yun's strength definitely did not come from his reliance on his inner demon. That power belonged to him, and only him! That power was purer than his, allowing him to feel the existence of power!
Why?! Why was this?! Could it be that even after he sold his soul to his inner demon, he still could not surpass Xu Yun in terms of strength?! No! This was illogical! His strength should be stronger than Xu Yun's!
One must know that their strength was on par with each other back then. When he had not allowed his inner demon to devour him, his strength was not necessarily below Xu Yun's. But why was it now? He had become stronger, but Xu Yun looked even stronger!
At this moment, Xu Yun seemed to have sensed that something was wrong with Wen Xiao. That's right, his strength had indeed become stronger. His strength had indeed become stronger, but his strength was clearly not the result of his accumulation over a long period of time!
Xu Yun was very clear about his own strength. His rapid increase in strength was inextricably linked to the secret on Guoguo's body. Now, in order to protect Guoguo's identity as a Xixihoya tribesman, he had asked Guoguo to keep Pobo Jade.
This qualitative change in strength gave people a feeling of floating. Fortunately, after discovering this situation, Xu Yun did not greedily rely on the surprise brought to him by Guoguo. He did not continue to rely on Guoguo to enjoy this feeling of rapid improvement. Instead, he re-consolidated his sudden increase in strength bit by bit.
This allowed Xu Yun to possess even purer strength.
According to reason and principle, the strength that Wen Xiao obtained from his inner demon was the same as the strength that Xu Yun obtained from Guoguo. However, Wen Xiao's extreme method had the risk of being devoured. Therefore, even though everyone in the underground world knew that this was a way to rapidly increase their strength, not many were willing to bear the risk of being devoured by their inner demon.
More importantly, many people's inner demons were not stimulated at all! They didn't even have the opportunity to obtain this strength. Even if it was an inner demon, it wasn't something that anyone could possess or summon at will.
Perhaps there weren't many people who could do what Wen Xiao did. Although Wen Xiao's strength was controlled by his inner demon, it had to be said that his control over it was quite successful. At least, he could only release his inner demon when he needed that strength.
Most of the time, he could still suppress the evil thoughts of his inner demon. When facing Yu Meiren and Guoguo alone, Wen Xiao did not do anything to make things difficult for them or harm them. This was enough to prove that he had not completely gone mad.
However, it wasn't easy to control this kind of thing. Perhaps one day in the future, Wen Xiao would be completely defeated by his inner demon. By the time he lost control, everything would be too late. This was definitely not something that could be casually controlled.
Xu Yun took a deep breath. The moment he confirmed the source of Wen Xiao's strength, he was really shocked. Other than shock, there was also grief. Wen Xiao's current state was inseparable from him. If he had a better way to control the situation back then, Wen Xiao wouldn't have been reduced to this state.
But after all, the past couldn't be redone. What had happened couldn't be changed. What was, was. No one could casually change things. Wen Xiao had already become what he was today. Xu Yun could only bear and accept his current state.
"Wen Xiao, can we talk first?" Xu Yun said lightly. He had already dodged his attack, but he didn't want to fight back.
Wen Xiao said coldly, "Do you look down on me that much?"
"No." Xu Yun shook his head.
"If you think highly of me, then make your move. Let me see what you have become … "Wen Xiao was prepared to withstand Xu Yun's attack!
