"Who's insulting me! I'm asking you a question!"
Xie Zhou looked displeased, her eyes glaring fiercely at Xiong Yue, who was all smiles.
"ah?"
Xiong Yue was in the middle of a fierce battle when he saw Xie Zhou's arrogant expression, and his anger flared up immediately.
"You little brat, what are you yelling about? Can't you understand human language?"
Xie Zhou pointed at Xiong Yue's nose.
"Damn it, you think you're so great? You're just a greenhorn, I can take on ten of you!"
Without saying a word, Xiong Yue launched a direct attack on Xie Zhou.
"Xie Zhou! Watch out!"
Luo Fantian panicked and hurriedly ran towards Xie Zhou.
"You can just watch from the side, I'm fine here!"
Xie Zhou frowned, and with a wave of his hand, Luo Fantian felt a gentle force propel his body back several meters.
"Tsk tsk tsk, a monster and an ugly duckling, I think you two are quite a match."
Xiong Yue was unaware of his current predicament.
"You little bastard, if you say another word, I'll tear your mouth apart."
Just as Xiong Yue was about to unleash his power, he felt a chill on the back of his neck as a hand reached up and touched him.
I got goosebumps all over.
"Um?"
Startled, Xiong Yue threw a punch directly at the person behind him.
"Hey, your aim seems a little off?"
In the blink of an eye, Xie Zhou was right in front of Xiong Yue.
Xiong Yue paused.
He hadn't reacted yet.
"Clap clap clap!"
Three slaps.
"This is for your rudeness today."
Xiong Yue saw Xie Zhou smile slightly as he passed by. He tried to grab Xie Zhou, but Xie Zhou was as slippery as an earthworm, and no matter how hard Xiong Yue tried, he couldn't catch him.
"Damn it, all you do is hide. Do you even dare to fight me head-on?"
In just thirty seconds, Xiong Yue was slapped at least a dozen times, and his face was visibly swollen.
"You want to face me head-on? Are you sure?"
Xie Zhou was very excited when he heard this.
"Directly destroying a person's self-confidence should also be considered part of the mission."
Xie Zhou's lips curled up slightly.
Looking at Xie Zhou's ill-intentioned smile, Xiong Yue felt a sense of foreboding rise in his heart.
But what did he have to be afraid of? Xie Zhou was just a piece of trash who hadn't even broken through to the initial stage. For someone in the intermediate stage, dealing with someone in the initial stage was as easy as crushing an ant.
"Boom!"
A loud crash was heard.
Xie Zhou actually did collide fist-to-fist with Xiong Yue!
"Thank you, Zhou!"
Luo Fantian shouted.
Such a collision would be enough to kill Xie Zhou, who was only at the initial stage of cultivation!
However, what surprised Luo Fantian happened the next second. Xie Zhou didn't move at all, but Xiong Yue, who was opposite Xie Zhou, spat out a mouthful of blood.
His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing into a tree before coming to a stop.
"This...this...how is this possible..."
After saying this, Xiong Yue fainted.
"Phew... Luo Fantian's energy is so useful! With the addition of two Illusion Stones, my abilities are already approaching the intermediate level."
Xie Zhou rubbed her fist. Although the collision had only made Xie Zhou's arm a little numb, the feeling was really not pleasant.
"Xie Zhou! Xie Zhou, are you crazy?!"
Luo Fantian rushed towards Xie Zhou, looking at him with heartache.
"How are you? Are you hurt anywhere? Let me see your arm, is it alright?"
Luo Fantian's distressed expression resembled that of an old father.
"I'm really okay, I'm really, really okay."
Xie Zhou repeatedly assured Luo Fantian, and only then did Luo Fantian finally give up asking further questions.
"That's good, that's good."
Seeing Luo Fantian's worried eyes, Xie Zhou felt a little touched.
"Grandson? Isn't this my grandson?! Who! Who did this?!"
A powerful and intense energy swept towards Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian in an overwhelming manner.
Breathing became difficult, and Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian, who were originally standing, had to kneel on one knee to support their bodies due to the enormous pressure.
"What's going on? Now you can ask your family to plead for you if you want to enter the Frost Palace? How come I didn't know that?"
Xie Zhou gritted his teeth and struggled to hold on, his little face turning quite red.
"Who! Who on earth injured my grandson like this!"
Another loud roar followed.
"Pfft!"
Due to the immense pressure, Xie Zhou coughed up blood, and his face instantly turned pale.
"Xie Zhou, are you alright?"
Luo Fantian saw all of this. He wanted to stand up and help Xie Zhou, but he was already struggling to withstand the pressure and had no idea how to help Xie Zhou. He could only worry helplessly.
"It's okay, I can manage."
Xie Zhou wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes fixed on an elderly man with white hair standing next to Xiong Yue.
The old man was robust, and his large belly made him look very much like a Maitreya Buddha with long hair.
"Was it the two of you?!"
Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian were immediately startled by the old man's gesture. With a wave of his hand, two large hands formed from condensed air reached out to grab Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian.
"Go to hell!"
This was a deadly move right from the start.
"Oh no!"
Xie Zhou was unable to move; this ability was beyond what she could simply resist.
"Clan Chief Xiong is truly formidable. He even dared to lay a hand on two juniors while visiting the Sword Sect."
At the critical moment, Ling Feng appeared as if walking on thin air. With a wave of his right hand, the fists that were about to strike Luo Fantian and Xie Zhou vanished, along with the oppressive aura.
"call……"
Xie Zhou took a deep breath, while Luo Fantian quickly got up and helped Xie Zhou up.
"Is this how the Sword Sect treats my grandson?"
Team Leader Xiong's voice was rough, a suppressed voice about to erupt in anger.
After saying that, the bear clan chief glared fiercely at Xie Zhou and Luo Fantian.
"My grandson has become like this, and he's still unconscious. Lingfeng, don't you have to give me a proper explanation?!"
The Xiong clan chief pointed at Xiong Yue, who was lying unconscious to the side, determined to demand an explanation.
"Chief Xiong, he..."
Lingfeng took a closer look at Xiong Yue. His face, which was not thin to begin with, now looked as if he had two big steamed buns stuffed in his mouth, with his cheeks bulging out.
Then look at those eyes, one big and one small, with dark circles under them, not to mention that two or three of their teeth have been knocked out.
"At least four ribs are broken, the arm is broken inch by inch, and the right hand is probably completely useless!"
Chief Bear's face was filled with anger.
