From the moment of the battle, Xia Xiao mainly used molten flames and lightning to increase the temperature. After a long battle, although the gold element's vitality withstood the destructive power of molten flames and lightning, it could not withstand the high temperature. Therefore, it changed from the inside out. In other words, it was cooked.
The high temperature brought by the fire energy and lightning is difficult to reduce. Because of this, the sword, which has been heated at high temperature, suddenly cools down, and the internal crystal structure will change. Although the hardness of the metal will increase, it will also crack inside. This moment is the most favorable for Xia Xiao to attack. And he has been waiting for this moment in the battle!
The Pu Dao cut off the iron sword on his chest, and it was nailed to the metal wall behind Xia Xiao, but the latter had already climbed up with a ferocious face. Xia Xiao's fire element energy was not enough to melt the sword, and the water element was also difficult to freeze it into ice, but he had a brain and knew that this way, he would have a chance of winning.
The iron wall behind him was controlled by the Golden Spirit Beast, moving like water, as if it was about to make some movement. However, the Golden Spirit Beast itself was in a very bad situation, causing it to move a little slower.
Several spikes slowly extended from the iron wall, as if to penetrate Xia Xiao's back. He held the machete tightly with both hands, biting his teeth stained with blood. He could no longer make a loud sound, but the machete in his hand released a destructive aura full of resentment. The aura reached the sky, scarlet light, and blood-stained Xia Xiao.
Xia Xiao's eyes were bloodshot, and nothing could cover up his desire for life. Shu Shuang used her life to protect him, if he went to find her in such a hurry, how could he be worthy of her?
The iron spike stabbed at him from behind, but a figure cut it off. Xia Xiao just swung his broadsword down fiercely. He used all his strength to curl his toes tightly in his shoes, as if to hold the ground more firmly.
The figure behind Xia Xiao only appeared for a moment, but Hu Bugui could see that it was... Shu Shuang! Although he was old and his eyes were blurry, he would not mistake that face. He felt extremely guilty for Shu Shuang's death, but how could she exist in Xia Xiao's Pudao?
Hu Bugui looked at Xia Xiao. He certainly didn't know either. He just excitedly swung the machete in his hand down, making the most intimate contact with the sword.
Xia Xiao's arm stopped after swinging through a huge arc, and under the Pudao, the sword was missing a piece, as if it suddenly sank. Suddenly, the frost on the sword fell off, and the warrior's body was cut off by the water line shot out from Xiaoyu's hand.
Xiaoyu had already appeared. She was hiding in a secluded place, hiding in the clouds like hiding behind corals. Seeing Xia Xiao leaning back, she hurried to help him, but halfway through swimming, Xia Xiao had already pulled her back to the contract space.
The dark world suddenly became clear, and only the world of the contract space was so bright. On the grass of the contract space, Ju Mang Huo Dou and Xiao Yu stood behind Xia Xiao, supporting him from all angles. On the other side, there was the golden spirit beast whose aura was no longer so strong, but his voice was extremely cold and full of extreme blame.
"You won unfairly."
"So you think I'm a villain?"
Xia Xiao was only a spiritual consciousness in this space, so he was dressed neatly, but his aura was a little weak. He gradually stood firm and moved forward with the support of Xiao Yuyu's hand behind him.
"Should I call you a gentleman?"
The Golden Spirit Beast made no effort to conceal his contempt for Xia Xiao, and was ready to fight again with his sword in hand. The sword in his right hand was missing a piece, and his aura dropped significantly. The power that had risen because of the disconnection with Xia Xiao also settled down. As long as he and Xia Xiao were connected, it would be difficult for him to obtain the strongest power because he had to follow Xia Xiao. This was one of the reasons why the Golden Spirit Beast had to leave Xia Xiao!
With the sword at his neck, Xia Xiao did not resist, but just moved his lips.
"I admit that I am not a gentleman, but I have my own principles, so I am not a villain. But if you think I am, then I am fine. Humph! You are a true gentleman, and I admit it. But whether it is the Great Wilderness or other worlds, gentlemen are often defeated by villains, not because gentlemen are stupider than villains, but because gentlemen do not understand villains. Just like you can't even see through my little trick, and you still want to kill the darkness by yourself?"
"Gentlemen have also looked at the Great Wilderness with evil eyes, but villains are only more evil. In this case, how should you deal with it? Do you think you can defeat them with your own principles? Do you know that after the departure of the ancestor of the spiritual contract, the Great Wilderness has colluded with the dark for 30,000 years. The powerful people of the five major forces have been guarding for 30,000 years, but they are just guarding. They cannot be eliminated even if they are in it. Do you think you can kill them all if you leave me?"
Xia Xiao ignored the sword on his neck and stared at the golden beast. But the latter was neither humble nor arrogant, and said:
"I have principles towards you because I pity you. But towards the darkness of the Great Wilderness, I will not be soft-hearted, nor will I hesitate. I know they often hide, and I also know how powerful they are. When I followed the real golden spirit beast and fought against the ancestor of the spirit contract, you were still in that world and had not been born yet."
"Qing Xunzi has lived for 30,000 years, and his strength is higher than that of Dao. He created his own power and expanded the power he can control, but it is still not enough to destroy them. Maybe you think you are of a high generation, but compared to him, who is slightly better? But he has not destroyed them yet, do you think you can do it alone? In other words, although you have the power of God, where is your peak?"
"Above the question."
Xia Xiao snorted coldly, and the Golden Spirit Beast understood what he meant. But once he left Xia Xiao, he would be able to obtain the power above the Dao, which was completely different from now. But since this guy laughed at himself at a young age in the Venerable Realm, it was too outrageous! However, Qing Xunzi, the Golden Spirit Beast knew him, but it was not easy for him to live until now. At his realm and age, every day could be the last day of his life.
"Where is Qingxunzi?"
"Master gathered his vital energy and walked through the Great Wilderness, searching for the person transformed by the Great Wilderness's consciousness."
"He is your master?"
The proud tone of the golden beast before was now a little more surprised, which made Xia Xiao feel that there was a turning point. He originally wanted to forcefully argue and make crooked arguments, but now he changed his approach.
Seeing Xia Xiao nod, the Golden Spirit Beast asked how they met, but Xia Xiao didn't want to talk about it.
"No matter how you say that, it's hard not to be subjective. You might even think I'm flattering myself. So relax and see for yourself."
Ju Mang turned his head to look at Xia Xiao. This was too risky, but Xia Xiao shook his head slightly and looked at the golden spirit beast.
"Since you think I'm a mean person, come and see my experience for yourself. Although you have understood some of it, it is definitely not as good as me letting go of my thoughts and seeing it thoroughly."
"good."
He put away the sword. Since Xia Xiao was so sincere, the Golden Spirit Beast came to see what he had experienced.
It is very dangerous to completely let go of your mind. In this case, you can easily get hurt. But Xia Xiao closed his eyes, as if he was ready. There is no need for extra rituals to check Xia Xiao's mind. Once it is ready, the Golden Spirit Beast can see it. Therefore, he saw a chaotic darkness at this time.
Waking up from darkness, with the birth of heaven and earth visions and thunder and lightning. The foolish Xia Xiao was placed on an altar that was beyond the reach of ordinary people. After just a few days of happiness, he was taken to the palace. He was taken away before dawn in the morning, and he could only go home after dark. This kind of life lasted for a long time. He was suspected and cursed, and was whipped in the heavy rain.
The golden beast never saw that brief smile again. He stood on the rainy night when Xia Xiao left Zhenxun, but he could not feel that cold. He once screamed hysterically and wanted to die, but he finally had a family and wanted to smile as happily as when he first came to this world. But what he had to face was a haunted house next to a mass grave and crying every night.
The golden beast didn't know much about human emotions and aspirations, but the contrast between before and after was too great, and one could tell how miserable it was at a glance. From then on, rotten vegetables and withered leaves became his companions, fake wine became a luxury, and the night became his consolation after being tired.
After that, Longgang went to Rongcheng, Rongcheng went to Wanling, Wanling went back to the imperial capital, and the imperial capital went to the academy. This journey seemed long, but it was also short. Just like Xia Xiao was far from the sky, but close to the top of the mountain. Along the way, the Golden Spirit Beast carefully observed all the scenes where Qing Xunzi appeared.
Xia Xiao did serve as a bait. Someone sealed him, someone ambushed him secretly, and wanted to kill him. The black air had appeared three times. Xia Xiao avoided it, but he also made sacrifices. Even after reading these memories, the golden spirit beast's opinion of Xia Xiao did not change much.
For the Golden Spirit Beast, a true gentleman can be different from himself, but he must keep his original intention and remember why he did everything. He can't be like Xia Xiao, who returned to the imperial capital for revenge at first, and came to the academy after revenge, to put it bluntly, just for that quiet time.
Xia Xiao is a person who has come from afar. He should go to the Great Wilderness and attract those guys to show up, instead of being afraid of their arrival. The Golden Spirit Beast looked at him, shook his head, and even said:
"You are really weak. Besides being weak, your thought level is also very low."
"So I should sacrifice everything for others?"
“This is our mission.”
"fart!"
Xia Xiao hated this kind of lies that were about giving everything and sacrificing everything. Could it be that he couldn't even protect his own things, his family and loved ones, and he had to sacrifice everything to protect others? Could he protect them?
Xia Xiao didn't think that the Golden Spirit Beast would be moved by his experience. He just wanted to let the latter see that Qing Xunzi was really his master. And he chose him for a reason. Unexpectedly, the Golden Spirit Beast looked for a long time and only saw these, which really disappointed him.
The Golden Spirit Beast expressed its disappointment with Xia Xiao out loud, so Xia Xiao naturally would not be stingy with his saliva. He came here today just to engage in a war of words.
"You are just a sword, wielded by others for thousands of years, acting only according to the wishes of others, but have you ever lived? Do you know how to solve the problem in front of you? Do you know how to restrain your breath and look for darkness?"
"Don't always look so old-fashioned."
"You are too arrogant. You think I am not worthy of talking to you. There is nothing to say. If you want to fight, we will fight again."
