Xia Luo broke through and soared into the sky.
He laughed arrogantly in the air. His voice was devilish and spread throughout the city, causing chaos on the roads during rush hour. There were dozens of car accidents.
However, Xia Luo didn't realize that his long-cherished wish of many years had been fulfilled. If he couldn't help but show off, he would definitely bleed internally.
"Hahaha! I, Xia Luo, have become a Grandmaster today. My cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds! I will definitely break through to the King Realm in the future and trample Zhu Huanan, Xia Chunqiu, and the others under my feet! "
When a person became excited, it was inevitable that they would lose their sense of place. This was especially true for someone as simple-minded as Xia Luo. When he started bragging, even Yang Fan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
This blockhead was too arrogant!
He dared to call out Grandmaster Huanan in front of the entire city. Wasn't he afraid of provoking public anger? One had to know that Grandmaster Huanan was the guardian of West Chu City. A mere Commander of East Chu City would definitely be in trouble if he dared to provoke him by his name!
Yang Fan couldn't help but take a few steps back. He wanted to distance himself from this blockhead so that he wouldn't be splashed with blood when he landed.
Chen Guang and Zhao Fengchen were the same. They took a few steps back at almost the same time. Even though Xia Luo was still in the air and far away from them, they still didn't feel safe.
This guy was too cocky!
Was he worried that Grandmaster Huanan wouldn't hear him with such a loud voice?
Be careful that your joy doesn't turn into sorrow!
Xia Luo didn't care. His newly obtained Grandmaster strength made him feel that he was much more powerful than before. He urgently wanted to find an opponent of equal strength and have a magnificent first battle.
"Zhu Huanan! Do you dare to come out and fight me?! " Xia Luo's brain heated up and he actually aimed at Grandmaster Huanan. He floated in the air and looked down at the city while shouting loudly.
Yang Fan and the others trembled and retreated even faster.
Was he courting death?!
"Is he usually so brainless?" Chen Guang couldn't help but ask Zhao Fengchen.
Now, he began to understand why Xia Luo was so easily fooled by Yang Fan. This guy's brain was clearly missing a string.
Zhao Fengchen was already used to this. "Who said that he's brainless? He just doesn't use it often! Only a person with a pure heart can make rapid progress in the martial way. It is not without reason that Xia Luo was able to reach the peak of Martial Master before the age of thirty. Now, he has broken through to the Martial Ancestor Realm in one go. "
Chen Guang was speechless. What logic was this? Was it because he was stupid enough?
Also, was it that rare to reach the peak of Martial Master at the age of 30? Who wasn't a genius when they were young?
However, Xia Luo was able to break through to the Guru Realm at such a young age. Regardless of whether it was a trick or not, it was still considered extremely amazing.
This should be the legendary "fortune favors fools"!
"Noisy!"
At this time, an unhurried shout came from the sky above West Chu City. Then, a giant palm slowly condensed above Xia Luo's head, casually waving down.
That tone, coupled with the posture of swatting a fly, was enough to show the disdain and dislike of the person who spoke.
"Pa!"
A soft sound rang out. Xia Luo didn't even have the chance to react. He didn't even have the time to cry out before he was slapped to the ground by the giant palm that suddenly appeared above his head. He landed just three meters in front of Yang Fan, Chen Guang, and Chen Guang.
With a loud boom, dust flew everywhere. Xia Luo was buried headfirst into the bluestone ground beneath their feet in an upside-down position.
He was buried ten meters into the ground, and the pit was like a well.
Yang Fan and the rest stood at the entrance of the hole. They could faintly see a pair of large feet rising into the sky, flailing around in the dark well. His blood and Qi were sealed, and his body was stuck. Without help, he wouldn't be able to get out in a short period of time.
Seeing Xia Luo's miserable state, the three of them were secretly delighted. At the same time, they were also filled with reverence for the Grandmaster Huanan who had secretly made a move.
With just a casual slap, he had slapped Xia Luo, who had just advanced to Martial Ancestor Realm. Grandmaster Huanan's strength was probably infinitely close to King Realm, right?
Three seconds later, Xia Luo crawled out from the ground with his face covered in dust. The arrogance on his face was gone, and he became quiet and obedient like a quail.
Obviously, Grandmaster Huanan's slap from afar had made Xia Luo realize the reality.
So what if he had broken through to Martial Ancestor Realm? He was still a Grandmaster. If he wanted to deal with him, it would only be a matter of a slap.
"You observed Zhu Huanan, who was at the pinnacle of Martial Ancestor Realm, and your heart was moved. However, due to your insufficient strength, you were unable to comprehend it."
The system's late notification sounded in Yang Fan's ears. He felt regretful and shook his head helplessly. This wasn't the first time he had heard such a system notification. Without sufficient strength, he didn't even have the qualifications to learn some high-grade martial arts.
Although An Sheng's sunglasses also showed Grandmaster Realm martial arts, most of them were Mortal Realm and Mortal Realm martial arts. He hadn't had the chance to try out the higher-grade martial arts, but the result should be similar.
Strength was a shortcoming.
Right now, he wasn't even an official martial artist. The strength of his body and blood couldn't support the normal consumption of high-grade martial arts. It was reasonable that he couldn't learn them.
"So, the speed of cultivation is still too slow!"
Yang Fan sighed in his heart. Especially after seeing Grandmaster Huanan's strength, he felt that his strength was weak. Not to mention a Martial Disciple, even if he was a Spirit Reader Master, what could he do? Would he be able to block Grandmaster Huanan's slap?
"Brother Yang!" Xia Luo patted the dust off his body and walked to Yang Fan's side. He looked sincerely at Yang Fan: "I've always been a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and grudges. This time, your help to me is like a new life. I'll remember this kindness!"
"In the future, if you have any needs, just come and let me know. I, Xia Luo, won't frown for a second!"
Yang Fan's eyebrows twitched. Such emotional words didn't seem like something a fool would say. Could it be that Xia Luo was like what Zhao Fengchen said, an introverted type of person?
"Don't worry, I'm also an honest person. I don't know what being polite is." Yang Fan also sincerely said to Xia Luo: "If there's anything I need your help with, I definitely won't be polite with you."
Xia Luo scratched his head. Why didn't this little brother play by the rules? In the past, when he saw others expressing their gratitude to Xia Tianlai, Xia Tianlai would laugh heartily and reply: "You're too polite. This is what I should do. Please don't take it to heart."
This was the first time he heard such a reply from Yang Fan. However, when he heard Yang Fan say that he was an honest person, Xia Luo grinned and nodded in agreement: "Honest people are good. I like to make friends with honest people like you. I won't lose out!"
Chen Guang: "…"
Zhao Fengchen: "…"
The four of them quickly left the Xia Residence. The guards in the Xia Residence only dared to show their faces after a while.
After confirming that everyone had left, they finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"I didn't expect that Second Master Xia would also break through to the Grandmaster realm. The City Governor's Office has three Grandmasters!"
"What three Grandmasters? Didn't you see that Xia Luo has already defected with Zhao Fengchen? If we meet again, we don't know if they'll be friends or foes! "
"If you ask me, the City Lord is too ruthless. He actually took nearly four thousand milliliters of Commander Xia Luo's blood essence. Isn't this deliberately trying to take Xia Luo's life? Not to mention Xia Luo, even if it happened to you or me, we would still have to run! "
"Why don't we run too? Otherwise, when the City Lord returns, we'll be implicated!"
"Idiot, where can you run to? Do you think you're Xia Luo and Zhao Fengchen, a Grandmaster and a peak Martial Master? Do you think you can eat anywhere? For martial artists like us who are neither up nor down, even if you want to rely on West Chu City, there has to be someone who cares about you! "
"…"
The group of guards leaned on the wall and whispered to each other, discussing animatedly. It was very lively.
In the backyard, where Xia Zixuan was.
A wave of Qi and blood that was not very strong suddenly exploded, immediately attracting the attention of these guards.
"It's Ms. Zixuan!"
"She seems to have broken through!"
The crowd that was initially without a leader seemed to have found their backbone again. They all moved to the backyard and silently guarded outside, quietly waiting for Xia Zixuan's breakthrough.
"Breaking through to become an official martial artist at the age of 17, Ms. Zixuan's talent is considered one of the best in East Chu City."
"Tsk, I saw it with my own eyes before. It was the City Lord who injected her with the immortal serum. She's the same as the City Lord. She also relied on Commander Xia Luo's blood essence to successfully advance."
"But speaking of which, what is this immortal serum? Does Xia Luo's blood essence really have such a powerful effect?"
Even if it was a high-grade spiritual medicine, it might not be effective so quickly, but looking at Xia Tianlai and Xia Zixuan's performance, from the time they injected the immortal serum to the time they completely broke through, it did not even take an hour.
Xia Luo himself was even more exaggerated. Just now, right before their eyes, he had only taken around 100 milliliters of the immortal serum and instantly broke through to become a martial artist. It was simply too amazing.
If they could also take a dose, would they also be able to break through the current cultivation barrier in a short time?
"Cough cough, I've heard a little about this. The immortal bloodline seems to be a bloodline that only belongs to the direct descendants of the Xia family. So, you don't have to waste any more effort. That immortal serum should only be effective on the Xia family. If a normal person uses it, not only will they not advance, they might even clash with their own bloodline. It's even possible for them to die suddenly! "
Whoosh!
As soon as this guard finished, the remaining people turned to look at him almost simultaneously.
We're all guards, so why do you know so much?
"Uhm, everyone, don't look at me like that. I'm definitely not a traitor!" The guard shrugged innocently. "Don't forget that even though my surname is Chu, my mother's surname is Xia. Even though she's from a side branch, it doesn't seem wrong to know some secrets about the Xia family, does it?"
Whoosh!
The gazes dispersed. Those who could be guards in the City Governor's Office were more or less related to the Xia family, so it was not strange for them to know some secrets.
Squeak!
The door opened and Xia Zixuan walked out of the secret cultivation room with a light expression. When she reached the courtyard and saw the row of guards, the little girl could not help but be stunned. "Why are all of you gathered here? Where's my father?"
"Miss," Guard Chu softly replied, "The City Governor and Grandmaster Wang Zhe from West Chu City have arranged a battle outside the city. They've been out of the city for quite some time."
"Wang Zhe has actually become a Grandmaster?"
Xia Zixuan frowned slightly, but she was not too worried about Xia Lai. Xia Zixuan, who had also awakened the immortal bloodline, knew better than anyone else how powerful the immortal bloodline was. She firmly believed that if they were to really fight to the death, the one who would survive in the end would definitely be her father.
"My Second Uncle? Has he woken up yet? And Zhao Fengchen, why is there no sign of him? "
Xia Zixuan asked again. With such a huge incident happening, logically, no matter if it was Xia Luo or Zhao Fengchen, it was impossible for them to not come out, but now, there were only these normal guards in front of her.
This was very abnormal.
"Miss, the situation is like this …"
Guard Chu looked embarrassed as he softly told Xia Zixuan about the farce that had just happened in this residence. He softly said, "Just like that, Commander Xia and Vice City Governor Zhao acted like they were possessed. They both listened to that Yang Fan's advice and decided to betray the City Governor's Office at the same time to seek refuge with West Chu City!"
"How could this happen?!" Xia Zixuan's eyes were about to split open as she roared hatefully, "It's that damned Yang Fan again?! How dare he openly sow discord in our Xia family's residence and poach our City Governor's Office? How dare he! Unforgivable! "
Xia Zixuan did not care about the description of Xia Luo having nearly four liters of blood extracted. She instinctively felt that it was Yang Fan and Zhao Fengchen speaking without thinking. Her father and Second Uncle were as close as brothers. There was no way they would do such a cruel thing.
Before Xia Lai came, he had told her that it was only a little. She believed that her father would not lie to her. She even believed that the relationship between her father and Second Uncle would definitely not be so filthy!
Thus, almost every time she thought about it, Xia Zixuan would very naturally put all the blame on Yang Fan.
If it were not for Yang Fan, everything that had happened today would not have happened.
Xia Luo would not have been hurt, and he would not have had such a serious misunderstanding with Xia Lai.
As for that Zhao Fengchen, he deserved to die even more. As the Vice City Governor of the City Governor's Office, he was usually deeply trusted by Xia Lai, but this time, he actually dared to collude with this bastard, Yang Fan, to slander Xia Lai and sow discord between Xia Lai and Xia Luo!
A traitor like this could not be let off easily. He must be torn into pieces to vent her hatred!
Xia Zixuan was furious. Her poor Second Uncle had a pure personality and was not scheming at all. He must have been deceived by these two people to make such a foolish decision!
"This Yang Fan! He's harboring evil intentions against our Xia family. He's committed a heinous crime! We can't let him off easily! "
Xia Zixuan gritted her teeth. In her heart, she had already sentenced Yang Fan to death.
Right now, she even felt that this bastard was their Xia family's nemesis. Anything that involved him would not end well at all.
A scourge like this could not be allowed to continue being so unscrupulous.
"Tomorrow is the school's resource competition trial. With Yang Fan's current cultivation and strength, he definitely won't miss it!" Xia Zixuan clenched her fists tightly and said hatefully, "Since it's not easy to make a move in the city, then let me completely get rid of this trouble during the trial!"
Yang Fan's current status was not what it used to be. Not only was he the cousin of the newly promoted Master, Wang Zhe, but he also had Chen Guang and Zhao Fengchen by his side to protect him. Wanting to kill him in the city was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
However, it was different during the trial. The trial was outside the city. In order to ensure fairness, the school would strictly prohibit all external forces from interfering. Even the principal, Chen Guang, could not simply change the rules.
When the time came, as long as she could find Yang Fan's tracks, with her current cultivation as a Level 2 Martial Master, it would be a piece of cake for her to kill Yang Fan!
After her breakthrough in cultivation, Xia Zixuan was filled with confidence in her own strength. The shadows that Yang Fan had left in her heart were gradually disappearing. As long as she could successfully kill Yang Fan this time, all the unhappiness in the past would vanish like smoke!
