Chapter 534 Preparation for Counterattack
“Senior, Senior Brother Beigong!”
At this moment, a young man in white suddenly ran over from a distance. Judging from the young man’s flustered look, he must have been frightened by the two people’s stance. The man whispered into Beigong Qin’s ears.
After hearing this, Beigong Qin frowned and then said coldly, “You may leave.” After that, he turned his head and continued to stare at Xiao Chen. He knew that it was not the right time to fight with Xiao Chen now. Moreover, Xiao Chen’s aura seemed to be a little different today.
The atmosphere in the court was getting tenser and tenser. Beigong Qin suddenly said coldly, “Have you ever killed someone…”
As soon as he said that, the temperature around him suddenly dropped a lot, and a strong murderous aura was emitted from his body, which suddenly made everyone feel suffocated.
“Murderous aura! A real murderous aura!”
At this moment, everyone’s hearts trembled. Although they were all outstanding people from all over the country, they were still disciples of the Cloud Mist Academy, not the Black Horn people who fought and killed all day long. Who really did survive on the edge of the blade? Many people had not even seen the killing before.
At this moment, they felt a strong murderous aura from Beigong Qin. Only people who had killed people could have such a murderous aura. It was obvious that Beigong Qin had killed many people. This time, people were more afraid of him.
“Do you know what I like the most…” Beigong Qin looked coldly at Xiao Chen and said word by word, “What I like the most is to see their desperate, helpless, and fearful eyes before they die…”
In the distance, the crowd was terrified. Although they did not know the true strength of Beigong Qin, they now understood that they must never provoke this person in the future.
“There was once a person like you. Then, I killed a total of 108 of them in the span of one day. Even now, I still remember the despair in their eyes before they died. I hope that you will not follow that person’s footsteps…” Beigong Qin said coldly.
In the distance, everyone’s heart trembled. He killed more than a hundred people in a day. Was this person a homicidal maniac…
However, Xiao Chen only looked at him coldly and said indifferently, “Are you done?”
Xiao Chen looked at him and said coldly, “Beigong Qin, I don’t care what you came to the Cloud Mist Academy for, or how many people you have killed. Don’t come to offend my people again. Remember this.”
After saying this, Xiao Chen turned around and walked to Chu Qi and the rest. Beigong Qin shouted coldly, “Stop!”
The atmosphere once again froze. Xiao Chen’s steps seemed to have frozen as well. He slowly turned his head and looked at him and said, “You have a lot of time, but I, I have a lot of things to do. I don’t have time to play these little tricks with you all day long…”
This time, Xiao Chen did not look back again. He walked to the side of Chu Qi and looked at the youths and said in a low voice, “Let’s go.”
The fight was ended in this way. The crowd in the distance looked at Xiao Chen’s back and secretly let out a sigh of relief. But they also felt that they could not see the two people fighting was a little… pity?
Beigong Qin was still standing behind him. He stared at Xiao Chen’s back as he walked toward the teleportation formation. He took a deep breath and his gaze grew colder and colder.
After walking out for 500 meters, Qin Tianyu raised his head and looked at Xiao Chen. “Brother Chen, why didn’t you teach him a lesson?”
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and said nothing. If he was still the 16 or 17-year-old youngster who killed Ye Fei as soon as he entered the Three Pure Sect for a small conflict, perhaps he had already fought with Beigong Qin.
But he was no longer that. He clearly understood that Beigong Qin’s current strength was not weaker than his. It was no good for him to fight with him. Moreover, he could not fight against the senior disciples of the Purple Thunder Pavilion with his current strength, so he could only endure.
On the other hand, he did not want to conflict with too many people in the Cloud Mist Academy now. After all, he had his real purpose. His real purpose was to return to the Violet Realm in the future and avenge himself!
Therefore, as long as Beigong Qin did not go overboard, he could bear with it.
The youngsters also fell silent. They knew that Xiao Chen was definitely not a coward. Otherwise, he would not have challenged Bai Ling for them when he first came here.
The group of people walked to the teleportation formation in the fourth zone. Xiao Chen saw that there were also some injured among the two or three hundred disciples of the Wind-heeding Pavilion. He frowned and asked, “Why don’t you go back to the cultivation area?”
Everyone lowered their heads and said nothing. Xiao Chen looked at the fourth district and saw hundreds of people standing on it. It was obvious that they were disciples of the Purple Thunder Pavilion. Suddenly, he felt furious.
Xu Ling’er lowered her head and said, “From the day before yesterday, they have been occupying the top. We can’t go up. If we go up, they will stop us.”
“They have gone too far…” Xiao Chen clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles creaked. His eyes looked as if they were about to burst out flames. After all, no matter how much he tried to put up with it, he was still the same. He was a true man who could not bear to see the people around him being humiliated.
“Heh-ah!”
With a deep bellow, Xiao Chen stomped his feet and seven or eight cracks appeared on the ground. He then rushed to the sky above the island in the fourth district.
The hundreds of Purple Thunder Pavilion disciples on the platform were scared out of their wits when they saw him charging at them. The next moment, they saw Xiao Chen spread out his arms and use the Star-shifting Substitution. “Boom!” The entire island of the fourth district shook with a loud thud and nearly caused the people on the island to fall.
“Eh-ah!”
The veins on Xiao Chen’s face popped as his power was pushed to the limit. Everyone on the other side of the empty ground exclaimed at this moment, “What! What’s going on?”
All of a sudden, the island in the fourth district was out of its original positions and quickly moved left and right repeatedly. The hundreds of people on them were scared out of their wits. They grabbed onto the branches and rocks to prevent themselves from being thrown out. They looked like a complete mess and did not seem as arrogant as they were two days ago.
Exclamations came from the other side of the empty ground. Evidently, Xiao Chen was not using his Mystic Power to rapidly move the island. This was because the island was so large and was being reinforced by a formation. Not even an Apotheosis Realm cultivator could do that. Evidently, he had used some kind of magical cultivation method.
At this moment, Beigong Qin was also stunned. He had never seen or heard of this magical skill. Was it the Sky-Land Change that had been lost since the Cultivation Era?
“Get the hell out of here!” Xiao Chen bellowed. Using his final ounce of strength, he caused the entire island to turn to the side and flung the hundred or so people to the first district.
“Ah! Ah! Help! Help me…” In mid-air, the one hundred or so disciples of the Purple Thunder Pavilion who were thrown out were so scared that they kept screaming.
“This, this! Incredible!” The people on the other side of the empty ground in the distance had already been stunned, and even began to ramble. This was simply more exciting than watching the battle between him and Beigong Qin.
Beigong Qin’s face was already ashen. There were some things that did not need to be made clear. However, everyone knew that without his orders, how could the hundreds of disciples of the Purple Thunder Pavilion dare to occupy the fourth district? Now that his people were directly thrown back, what difference was it from giving him a tight slap in the face?
“Xiao Chen…”
Beigong Qin squeezed his fingers, and his eyes became colder and colder. The black Jade Zither suspended next to him seemed to have a little bit of strange dark red lines on it. Then a thin old man’s voice entered his mind. “Kid, this person is not simple. I can feel that there seems to be a Zither Spirit following him…”
Beigong Qin then only calmed his thoughts when he heard the old man’s voice in the zither. However, his gaze remained cold.
…
In the distance, Xiao Chen threw the 100 people back to the area and then flew back to the teleportation formation. He looked at the teenagers and said, “Let’s go back.”
They returned to the fourth district. On the other side of the empty ground, several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators from the Wind-heeding Pavilion were hiding in the dark. Naturally, they would not go up there at this moment.
Xiao Chen checked everyone’s injuries. Fortunately, most of them were slightly injured and did not have their internal organs hurt. There were also some who were seriously injured. Chu Xuanxuan and other girls who were good at wood healing magic spell were treating them.
“Senior Brother Qianye, are you alright?”
Earlier, to protect Chu Xuanxuan, Shen Qianye was also punched a lot, and there was blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed. He said lightly, “I’m fine.”
“Oh…” Chu Xuanxuan lowered her head and walked over to Qin Tianyu’s side, casting a few healing techniques on him.
After a sigh, Xiao Chen asked the crowd, “What the hell happened?”
Xu Ling’er frowned. “It’s all because they plundered our Spiritual Qi and they were getting worse and worse. So Tianyu fought with them, and then…”
Xiao Chen roughly learned about the fighting between the two sides. Xu Ling’er continued, “They said that their men were injured by us and asked us to compensate them with Mystic Stones. But there were obviously more people on our side who were injured, and they also offered many unfair clauses…”
“Okay, I get it.” Xiao Chen squeezed his fingers and looked over the first-class cultivation area. He saw more Spiritual Qi water beads floating around the island. Obviously, they had plundered a lot of Spiritual Qi from the other three districts these days.
Turning around, Xiao Chen looked at the young boys and girls and said, “In the remaining twenty days, you just focus on your cultivation here. No one will dare to come up again.”
“Yes! We’re not afraid of them!” The youngsters nodded in unison. With Xiao Chen around, they felt at ease. Even though the Spiritual Qi in the Fourth District was the thinnest, it was still their own territory. Being occupied by others would be even more humiliating than being beaten.
“Chu Qi, come with me.”
“Yes.”
The two of them walked into a small forest on the island. Xiao Chen looked around and said, “Do you remember those sneaky people we saw when we went back that evening? I didn’t see them today. You should pay attention to those people in the next few days.”
“Yes.”
Next, Xiao Chen had to get his cultivation improved as soon as possible. Twenty days later, it would be the end of the month. At that time, there would be a fierce competition between all the disciples in the Cloud Mist Academy because it concerned which district they could cultivate in next month.
Five days later, the full moon was round like a plate. Xiao Chen sat cross-legged in the courtyard to practice. In the past few days, he had been practicing in the cultivation area during the day, and at night, he had been practicing in the courtyard. He slept less than four hours a day.
Yesterday, news came from Yang Qing’s side. He seemed to have found a trace of the Weapon Master Ren Tianxing, and it seemed to have something to do with the Black Horn.
