Little Five just tilted his head, not understanding what Lin Xiu meant at all.
But in his opinion, Lin Xiu was so powerful, so what he said must be extremely reasonable, so he just nodded his head in agreement.
"You little guy, you've always lived here and never went out. You've never experienced love, so you won't understand even if I tell you." Lin Xiu patted Little Five's head.
The two returned to the thatched cottage again. After a period of time, Lin Xiu had more or less imprinted all the contents of the book into his mind. Warriors in the Universe Realm had a very magical talent, which was to have a photographic memory.
"Alright, we've been out for long enough. Let's go back quickly, lest your father and the others worry." Lin Xiu said to Little Five. However, before they could do anything, they found that there was an unexpected guest in the Spring Valley.
This uninvited guest was covered in a layer of black veil from head to toe. It was obviously the person from the Netherworld Palace last night.
"Who are you? Why are you in the territory of my Ice Phoenix clan? "Little Five scolded angrily. He basically knew everyone in the clan. Recently, Lin Xiu was the only one who came as a guest.
The black clothed man obviously hadn't expected Little Five to return at this time. He knew very well that Little Five would only come here occasionally, and most of the time, Little Five would stay in his cave abode and study those messy things.
Just as the man in black was slightly stunned, a cold glint flashed across Lin Xiu's eyes. Since the other party also found this place, it meant that the man in black might have already seen the things left in the thatched cottage.
If the other party successfully returned to the outside world and reported all this information to the Netherworld Palace, then wouldn't the situation on the continent be even more dangerous?
Lin Xiu pulled Little Five slightly and made him stand behind him. His entire body was like a sharp sword that shot up to the sky, exuding endless sharpness.
"So sneaky, not daring to show your true face. One look and I can tell that you're not a good person. I must capture you." The tip of Lin Xiu's nose let out a cold snort. With a shift of his feet, he was already less than ten feet away from the man in black.
This man in black had a strong mentality and quickly recognized the situation. He knew that he had to fight with Lin Xiu before he could find a chance to leave. Otherwise, he would be in trouble.
"Cut the crap! Although your strength is not bad, you are still far from being able to compete with me. "The man in black spoke with disdain.
Afterwards, the two of them engaged in a huge battle in the valley. During the battle, the other party had been carefully controlling the fluctuations of his Yuan Power. He did not dare to use the techniques of the Netherworld Palace at all, so he was in a rather sorry state for a while.
"If this is all you've got, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave today." Lin Xiu stood with his hands behind his back and hovered in the air. He looked at the man in black who was clutching his chest and coughing up blood.
When the man in black came to the Ice Phoenix Clan, Lin Xiu had yet to show his prowess on the continent. They had been lying in ambush here for a period of time. They really did not know where this human boy came from and was actually so difficult to deal with.
"Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that there would be a rising star like you on the continent. It seems that if I don't use my full strength, I will really be in danger today." As soon as he said that, the figure of the man in black suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a black fog that covered the sky and the sun. In an instant, the entire spring valley was shrouded in it.
When the black mist came into contact with some of the plants in the spring valley, they immediately withered rapidly. Even the originally crystal clear stream water became pitch-black. Many fish flipped over their bellies, obviously poisoned to death.
Little Five, who was behind Lin Xiu, was furious at this moment. This had always been his other home, but now it was completely destroyed by the man in black. How could he not be angry?
For the first time, Little Five felt the importance of strength. No matter how talented he was in forging, if he was not as strong as others, he could only be at the mercy of others. He could only watch helplessly as the tragic scene unfolded in front of him.
His fingernails pierced deep into his palm, and blue blood slowly dripped down his wrist.
"Bastard, I will make you pay with your blood!" Little Five let out a roar and immediately ignored Lin Xiu's obstruction. He took out the Wind Chasing Crossbow from his spatial ring, then aimed at the figure of the man in black and kept pulling the bowstring.
At this moment, the man in black was facing the densely packed arrows and felt his scalp go numb. He had no time to care about Lin Xiu and could only use all his strength to block the arrows in front of him.
On the other hand, Lin Xiu was very experienced in combat. How could he let go of this great opportunity and waste it? He went behind the man in black and slapped him hard on the back.
Unlike last night, Lin Xiu did not have to hide his identity at all. Therefore, after this battle, he was very satisfied and his heart was really comfortable.
The robe of the man in black had long become tattered, revealing a large area of snow-white skin. This made Lin Xiu a little puzzled. Could it be that this man in black was a woman?
Lin Xiu was about to take advantage of the situation to attack when suddenly, an extremely loud phoenix cry came from afar. An Ice Phoenix that covered the sky and the sun came to the battlefield in the blink of an eye.
The Ice Phoenix retracted the fluctuation of the elemental energy all over its body. In a flash of light, this Ice Phoenix transformed into a human form. Who else could it be but Elder Xue Ying?
Elder Xue Ying came to the battlefield and smiled at Lin Xiu and Little Five with a kind expression.
"This guy didn't hurt you guys, right?"
"Big Brother Lin is very powerful, just a little bit more and we could have captured him alive. Aunt, you came at the right time, quickly join forces with Big Brother Lin and capture this guy alive. I want to see what kind of person he is, to actually dare to come to the territory of my Ice Phoenix Clan and behave atrociously." Little Five's words were still filled with unquenchable anger.
After Elder Xue Ying bowed slightly to Lin Xiu, he did not listen to his nephew and revealed a warm smile on his face.
"Little friend, this is the territory of my Ice Phoenix Clan after all. Why don't you leave this matter to me, you just have to watch from the side."
How could Lin Xiu not understand that this Elder Xue Ying was colluding with the other party and would definitely think of ways to let the other party go during the battle so that the other party could escape.
But this was the Ice Phoenix Clan after all, an outsider like him could not say anything. He could only nod, then crossed his arms in front of his chest and stood at the edge with Little Five.
"Audacious thief, I don't know what method you used to sneak in, tell me quickly, what exactly are you plotting?" Elder Xue Ying said fiercely.
When the black-clothed man saw Elder Xue Ying's figure, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Although he concealed it very well, Lin Xiu saw it clearly.
"With just you, stinky woman, it's not certain who will live and who will die between the two of us." The black-clothed man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then stood up from the ground. With a wave of his hand, endless black fog suddenly condensed and turned into a poisonous snake that constantly flicked its tongue.
This poisonous snake left a deep ravine on the ground, causing Elder Xue Ying to frown inadvertently. The other party's attack this time was indeed somewhat fierce.
But this was also good, the bigger the battle between the two, the less likely it was to attract attention when the other party went easy on him.
Elder Xue Ying made up his mind to cooperate with the black-clothed man to put on a good show, so naturally, he did his best to fight back and forth with the black-clothed man.
Lin Xiu, who was standing at the side, revealed a look of interest. He realized that the black-clothed man's cultivation was clearly much weaker than Elder Xue Ying's, but the two of them had been evenly matched since the first round of the battle.
"Elder, this black-clothed man is only in the early stages of the Universe realm. If you can't take him down, why don't you let me do it?" Lin Xiu said loudly.
Elder Xue Ying, who thought that he had put on a good performance, had a flash of resentment in his eyes, then he could not help but increase the strength of his hand.
This human brat was really too much of a hindrance!
"You deranged person, let me teach you how to directly deal with him today." Elder Xue Ying let out a light reprimand, immediately, endless ice attribute spiritual energy began to condense in the world, finally turning into the shape of a small hill.
It could be seen that this attack consumed a lot of Elder Xue Ying's energy. She waved her hand at the black-clothed man, and suddenly, the small hill's movement speed increased greatly.
Faced with such an aggressive attack, a feeling of helplessness suddenly surged in the black-clothed man's heart. However, at this moment, a voice suddenly rang in his ears.
"The inside of the body is empty. Wait a moment and directly drill into it. This hill's movement speed is extremely fast, it will definitely be able to bring you out of this place." This voice was clearly Elder Xue Ying's spiritual sense transmission.
The black-clothed man was overjoyed and stood up from the ground. Then, a spear appeared in his hand, and he fiercely stabbed it into the hill.
Just as Elder Xue Ying said, there was indeed a hole inside that could accommodate one person. The black-clothed man instantly turned into a black fog and drilled into it. Then, under the guidance of the hill, he continuously flew into the distance.
"How hateful, I actually let this guy escape." Elder Xue Ying stomped the ground hatefully, his tone filled with endless regret.
However, Lin Xiu sneered in his heart. He had clearly seen the situation just now, but on the surface, he could only accompany Elder Xue Ying and put on a good show.
"It's really too much of a pity, but Elder Xue Ying doesn't have to blame yourself. I believe that the current him has no place in the Ice Phoenix Clan's territory. As long as you report this to the Clan Leader, he will definitely be exposed." Lin Xiu seemed to be giving this idea to Elder Xue Ying out of good intentions.
Little Five, who was standing at the side, nodded without panicking, "Big Brother Lin is right. Within the territory of the Ice Phoenix Clan, if one doesn't have the bloodline of our clan, there's no way for him to leave. This time, he won't be able to escape even if he grows wings."
Elder Xue Ying forced out a smile before nodding his head.
"The two of you should quickly return. I'll go see the Clan Leader now and report everything that happened." After saying this, Elder Xue Ying's figure once again streaked across the sky, completely leaving this place.
