Chapter 1639 Xiao's Emotions

Jiuyang was slightly stunned. He had always thought that Xiao was the kind of person who would never reveal any emotion no matter what situation he faced. Even when facing death, Jiuyang had never seen him have any abnormal emotions. It seemed that death was as easy for Xiao as going home to sleep.

The path of cultivation for saints is very cruel. Every saint is very strong. That does not mean that every saint has amazing talent, but because saints who are not talented and have no achievements have long been eliminated.

So to outsiders, any saint who comes out of the holy land seems to be very strong, but they don’t know how cruel it is.

Jiuyang remembered very clearly that he had met Xiao when they were very young.

At that time, Xiao was a candidate saint of the Temple of Orbit, and he was a candidate saint of the Temple of the Sun. They seldom had the opportunity to meet each other, but every once in a while, the six temples would have a joint test.

All the candidate saints in the six halls will take the test together, and the last few will be eliminated directly.

As for where those eliminated saints went, no one knew, and they were never seen again.

Jiuyang himself is the kind of person who is slow to warm up and accept new things, so his ranking is always very low. Once, he almost fell into the elimination group.

It was at that time that he noticed Xiao.

Xiao was about the same age as him. They were both children at that time, only a little over ten years old. Jiuyang had not noticed Xiao before because during the joint test of the six palaces, the better the performance of the prospective saint, the closer he would stand to the front.

Jiuyang had always stood at the back, while Xiao had always stood in the front. However, this time, Xiao stood behind Jiuyang. This was also the first time that Jiuyang paid serious attention to Xiao.

That time was extremely dangerous. Xiao was only one spot away from being eliminated. All the reserve saints after Xiao were pulled out and were never seen again.

At that time, a kid who was also in the back and was familiar with Xiao asked Xiao, "Xiao, your combat skills are so strong, you should be in the top three at least. Why did you lose?"

"Because I'm not good at using my left hand." Xiao's answer made Jiuyang, who was standing beside him, feel very strange.

The child from before was also very curious and asked, "Does your left-handedness have anything to do with whether you can win?"

"I want to defeat all the prospective saints with my left hand, so I only used my left hand, but ended up losing miserably. But from now on, I will only use my left hand until I defeat all the prospective saints in the Six Palaces Joint Examination." Xiao replied.

When Jiuyang heard this, he disagreed.

In such cruel competition, if Xiao only used his weak left hand to fight, he would probably die miserably in the future. At the critical moment of life and death, he would definitely not be able to help but use his left hand.

However, it was not until the next joint examination of the six palaces that Jiuyang discovered that Xiao was not joking. In that brutal battle, Xiao really did not use his right hand. During the entire joint examination, Xiao only used his left hand and did not use his right hand once.

As a result, Xiao Ziran was defeated miserably and couldn't even win a single game.

This is also very normal. The saints who can survive are all extremely talented and willing to work hard. Moreover, they are too young and can only learn limited skills. At that time, it is difficult to widen the gap between them.

If Xiao fought seriously, it would not be impossible for him to be in the top three or even first, but he always fought with his left hand, which he was least good at.

Other people's hands have been trained for more than ten years, but he has only been trained for a month. How can they be compared?

Jiuyang originally thought that at the last moment, Xiao would definitely use his right hand to fight with all his strength, but he didn't. Until he fell into the elimination list, Xiao did not use his right hand.

Jiuyang watched Xiao fall into the elimination group, and he was really puzzled.

Xiao Mingming could have lived, could have won, so why didn't he use his right hand? Not using his right hand was just a rule he had made up for himself; he could have disobeyed it without anyone laughing at him, and few people even knew about it.

"Why don't you use your right hand?" Jiuyang quietly asked Xiao before he was taken away.

"I said I would only use my left hand, so I will only use my left hand." Xiao answered easily, as if he was not the next person to be eliminated.

If the Holy Spirit had not come forward to save Xiao that time, Xiao's body would probably have turned to ashes.

From then on, Jiuyang would pay attention to Xiao from time to time, but no matter when, no matter how dangerous the situation was, he never saw Xiao get emotional, as if he was just a robot with a set program and no emotions at all.

But now Xiao had such a crazy expression, an emotion that Jiuyang had never seen before. He was a little worried that Xiao might have lost his composure. That would be really dangerous, and he might not even have a chance to escape.

"You can't take my life yet." Xiao's eyes were as crazy as a devil, but his voice was so cold that it was frightening.

The companion pet ignored Xiao completely and attacked him again like a storm.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Xiao blocked the companion pet's full-body attack.

There was no dodging, just head-on blocking. At such a close distance, and with such unpredictable and lightning-fast attacks, Xiao actually blocked them all.

His entire reaction ability seemed to have reached an incredible level. Even attacks right in front of his face would be blocked by Xiao.

"No... it's not simply fast... it's more like Xiao has already blocked all possibilities... No matter how the companion pet attacks, it will eventually deliver itself to be blocked by Xiao... Wow... so powerful..." Jiuyang's eyes flickered, and he seemed to be a little bit unbelievable.

He always thought that his direct combat ability and artistic conception should be the strongest among all the saints, but now the crazy and devilish Xiao has broken his cognition and made him doubt himself.

There is no doubt that Xiao's fighting ability is not weaker than his, and his artistic conception is even stronger than his. This seems a little different from the Xiao he knows.

Xiao's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, but his body movements were calm and decisive like a machine, and there were no mistakes in such a crazy battle.

"How did he do it?" Jiuyang was shocked and a little suspicious.

This person was hardly the same as the Xiao he knew, but he was clearly Xiao, so it was impossible for him to be fake.

What made Jiuyang even more confused was that if this was Xiao's true strength, then why didn't Xiao use such ability when they besieged Zhou Wen before.
