Xia Xiao's heart tightened, he felt Ah Zhu's call. He sat cross-legged beside a beast corpse, using its breath to cover up his own fluctuations. When he woke up, he immediately absorbed the life energy of the wild beast. These things cannot be wasted. He devoured it, increased his strength, and prepared to use it to fight against the Wang family. But these alone are not enough, he also needs his own knife and scroll, and her!
"You should have shown up earlier!"
Xia Xiao didn't even turn his head and complained in a low voice.
"I'm not your babysitter, how can I be by your side all the time?"
"Next time put a mark on me and you will come when I call you."
"I remember you hated it when I put things on you."
"That was before!"
"But you have a bad temper, and you speak in such a strong official tone."
Under the shade of the tree next to the mummy, a charming female voice kept coming out. Xia Xiao was originally an enemy of this guy because this guy killed Shu Shuang. But now, for Ah Zhu, he had to side with him. After all, the only one who could help him was this woman who he had been dealing with for a long time but whose name he didn't know.
Two days ago, Xia Xiao was waved by the old man of the Wang family and left the Cloud Country, falling into the mortal world. Although Xia Xiao could fly, he stared at the vast sea of clouds and couldn't find where the Cloud Country was. Being in the boundless clouds, just like the sea and the wasteland, made his heart sink and he felt extremely helpless. He called for a long time and tried for a long time, and the woman appeared when he was exhausted. Then he broke through the barrier and returned to the Cloud Country.
After a day of recovery, Xia Xiao was in the best condition in all aspects, but he was as confused as if he was drunk. He actually knew that he was like this because of Ah Zhu. He promised Ah Zhu that he would never let her get hurt again, and he told himself again and again that he must protect her, but he didn't do it.
It would be a good thing if Ah Zhu was just injured. But if he is really innocent, Xia Xiao will make the Wang family punished even at the cost of his life!
"I need your strength."
"Have you seen the ancestor of the spiritual contract?"
“Not yet.”
"So if you trust me so much, aren't you afraid that my magic energy will kill you?"
"I can't care about that. I must save Ah Zhu, no matter what means!"
They are both magicians, and as long as they are conscious, they can accept each other's magic energy. Xia Xiao wants to build a special channel to absorb the magic energy from the woman's body at any time. The woman also wants this because it is the only way, but Xia Xiao's attitude at this time makes her look down on him.
The woman walked out of the darkness. This was the first time she showed her face in front of Xia Xiao. It was a very charming and mature face of a woman, with a strong appeal. Any man could not refuse and wanted to have rough sex with her. But her eyebrows were strong, and ordinary people did not dare to approach her, and as for the mysterious body under the gauze black skirt, they could not touch it.
It was the first time Xia Xiao saw her like this. She had straight black hair and snow-white skin. She was a stunning beauty, but the coldness on her face and the murderous aura between her brows were terrifying. If Xia Xiao didn't have demonic energy in his body, he probably wouldn't dare to look her in the eye. It felt like he was about to be swallowed up, like he was facing an abyss full of traps.
"Are you stunned?"
The woman spoke in a joking manner and continued:
"I've known for a long time that you're a romantic, but I appreciate that you're fully prepared. But the person you're facing this time is not me. I will show mercy, but they won't. But you're still charging forward with your head held high, which really disappoints me. Since ancient times, romantics have never had a good ending, and most of them died in places where no one cares about them."
"You don't understand."
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, she pinched and pulled her fingers together, like a pipe joint. The woman was not stingy either. She had a lot of demonic energy in her body, and even though the Wang family was strong, they might not be able to defeat her. She pulled out a long black tube from her abdomen with her slender white fingers and inserted it into Xia Xiao's small socket.
Suddenly, Xia Xiao thrust his back, and a force entered his body, churning inside, causing him to kneel on the ground and then roll around. Xia Xiao's eyes were spinning, and everything was in chaos, but he finally bent his waist and stood up shakily.
Holding on to the tree, Xia Xiao gasped loudly and adjusted his balance. The tree formed by the demonic energy in his body began to grow again, becoming extremely thick and tall.
When the scene in front of him became clear again, Xia Xiao saw the tall woman making very seductive movements with all kinds of charm, supporting her chin with her fingers, and said with a charming smile:
"Not bad, you woke up so soon."
"If it's any later, Ah Zhu will be defiled."
"How important is she to you?"
Xia Xiao stumbled towards the Jian family. The woman asked this question, but Xia Xiao fell into deep thought. Undoubtedly, Ah Zhu was very important. If he had to find someone to compare him to, he would be like his family. But in front of the woman, he said:
"Same as Shu Shuang."
The woman's sneering smile made Xia Xiao feel insulted, but he didn't care. The most urgent thing now was to rescue Ah Zhu. As long as Ah Zhu was safe, everything else would be fine. The road was not long, but Xia Xiao and the woman felt awkward after walking a few steps.
"May I have your name?"
Xia Xiao suddenly spoke up, but was made even more embarrassed by the woman's reply.
"Is it important?"
"You know me very well, and have even influenced my life one after another, but I know nothing about you."
"That sounds quite pitiful. Well, let me tell you. My name is Hei Huang."
“It doesn’t sound good.”
"Just a name."
The woman shrugged. Even though she was walking in the jungle, she had a strong aura as if she was standing on the red carpet. She was extremely confident, her manners were elegant, and her eyes always revealed her upbringing and unrestrained wild beauty. The two were somewhat conflicting. Xia Xiao couldn't guess her identity and didn't ask.
From the moment she said her name, Xia Xiao had a feeling of being deceived. He was too sensitive, even a little worried, but the story with this woman was still going on.
Walking to the edge of the forest, Xia Xiao could already see the town of Jian's family. He stretched out his hand towards a place, and his strong perception was like a call, passing through the houses, and causing the knife in the distance to come with a bamboo tube containing a scroll.
This sword named "Yunying" is a rare spiritual weapon in the world. It cleverly avoids people's sight, but it can still be sensed by the elders of the Jian family.
The wrinkled elder was teaching Jian Qiu the way of being a divine messenger when he suddenly looked out the window, causing Jian Qiu to look away. The knife was unsheathed, having been crushed to powder by the wind waves of the previous two days, so the knife was shining, which surprised them.
"Now that he's back."
"What a legendary boy!"
"Elder, shall we take action?"
The elder was silent. Since he was back, the Jian family, as the guardian of the southeastern border of Yun Country, should take action. But he thought again and just as he was about to lift his buttocks, he continued to sit steadily on the mat.
"Wang Shixing is one of the three top masters of the Wang family, and he was just one step away from entering the realm. He left Xia Xiao behind in Yun Country, so he must have left the realm. Now that he is back, he must have someone helping him. Since someone is helping us, we have reason not to take action, unless our clansmen discover something."
"We are the host and they are the guest, but this incident has made us look like shameless people. If it gets out, our reputation will be greatly damaged, and we will be no different from bandits."
Jian Qiu's words were clear, his smile was unpleasant, and the elder's dry laugh was more of a reminder.
"There are so many people in the world. It would be strange if we could satisfy others in everything we do. Be it selfish or rude, we are who we are. There is no change and no disguise. The purpose of the existence of the Cloud Country is to cultivate a god. Everything we do is for this goal. As long as the goal is achieved, the process does not matter, because if the goal is not achieved, no matter how many processes there are, it is meaningless."
No matter how extreme or weird the idea is, it will seem natural if it is nurtured from childhood. Jian Qiu, a quiet and young envoy of God, felt that the elder was right. Only after success will people care about experience. Before that, most of the processes were just sedimentation, which could be said to be a futile effort of hitting the wall.
It was still uncertain how much trouble Xia Xiao could make, but the fact that he could come back was beyond Jian Qiu's imagination. He gradually began to admire the young man who was much younger than him, but he was destined not to be as free as him.
After getting the knife and scroll, Xia Xiao did not go directly to the Wang family, but asked Heihuang.
"How long will it take to get to the Wang family?"
“I haven’t been there, so I don’t know.”
"They are in the center of Cloud Country."
"If I want, I can get there in about an hour even with you."
"That's good, wait till I prepare these talisman arrays."
"You won't ask me if I want to?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Now is not the time to flirt and cultivate feelings. Xia Xiao frowned, and his glance was full of ferocity. Hei Huang laughed out loud and joked:
"If I didn't want to play with you, you would definitely miss Ah Zhu."
"Let's put things in perspective. I will settle accounts with you about Shu Shuang sooner or later, and I will also repay you for Ah Zhu's favor this time."
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, he sat down cross-legged and began to inject vitality into the talisman array in the scroll. This scroll, which was originally placed in the bamboo tube, was made by Sun Zhonglei. There were five talisman arrays in total. Xia Xiao prepared two with the strongest attack power, one for fire and one for gold. Hei Huang had seen them before, but he didn't expect Xia Xiao to perform them like this every time. He was also a genius. He was the only one who could do this.
Sitting on a tree root, Hei Huang was like a celebrity, with her hands on her slender legs, looking at Xia Xiao with a lot of appreciation. As long as such a person joins, they will have one more person who can walk in darkness and light. This role is crucial, and it seems that Xia Xiao is competent, at least he is good at getting into trouble.
"I still have to cover for you, so think carefully about how to thank me!"
Not far away, some people from Yun country came over. They noticed some movement, but Hei Huang sighed, and his mind moved. The space was immediately blocked, like a door closed. Everyone who came avoided him. Xia Xiao cast a talisman array to fight against Huo Dou. He was already sweating coldly and his breath was extremely chaotic. After more than three months, Xia Xiao had improved a little. He no longer felt dizzy at the beginning, but he gritted his teeth and started to cast the next talisman array.
His current vitality was enough to cast two talisman arrays in succession. After his vitality was fully restored, he would be ready to fight the Wang family. However, he still needed to be mentally prepared for this battle because Ah Zhu's condition was unknown.
It only took Xia Xiao less than three hours to recover through a special way of absorbing vital energy. But soon, it was the third day. The days passed in a daze, and Xia Xiao became more and more anxious. I hope nothing will happen to Ah Zhu!
