Chapter 671 (2/2)

Instantly, numerous chains shot out and shackled the dark bat. The bat sensed that things weren't looking good for it, and it tried escaping. Unfortunately, its attempt was to no avail. The chains pulled and ripped the dark bat into pieces.

Next, Xiang Shaoyun released the ghostrunes, feeding the remains of the bat to them. As for the other dark bats that were hot on his tail, they all charged right into the Nether Soul Domain as well. One by one, they were all killed.

One ought to know that Xiang Shaoyun's soul had reached the level of a Sovereign. Hence, his Nether Soul Domain was capable of dealing even with Sovereigns. Although these bats were powerful, they were not strong enough to pose a threat to him.

After dealing with the bats pursuing him, he left, not willing to get tangled in any other trouble. However, he was able to sense that he had caught someone's attention. That person gave him a sense of danger that seemed no weaker than the danger he felt from the dark bats.

When Xiang Shaoyun looked in a certain direction, he saw a person and a mount gazing at him. He met the person's eyes, and illusory sparks seemed to appear between their gazes. It was as if he had met a potential rival that he had long waited to meet, causing a thirst for battle to rise within him.

The person and the mount were none other than Xiao Xie and his black qilin. From Xiao Xie's characteristics, Xiang Shaoyun recognized him. ”Demonic Blade Xiao Xie!”

”Since you know me, you are definitely a disciple of the academy. Who are you?” Xiao Xie asked in a calm and unruffled manner.

Xiang Shaoyun's name had long spread throughout the academy due to his nine-star physique. However, the freaks who had entered the academy earlier had not met him before. Xiao Xie was one of these freaks. Thus, it was understandable that he did not recognize Xiang Shaoyun.

As Xiang Shaoyun walked over, he answered, ”I am Xiang Shaoyun.”

A look of astonishment flashed past Xiao Xie's face. ”You're the Xiang Shaoyun residing at 1 Dragon Villa?”

”Yes,” Xiang Shaoyun answered honestly.

”Haha, splendid. Knowing someone by his reputation really can't compare to meeting him in person,” Xiao Xie roared with laughter. His eyes gleamed as he said, ”Xiang Shaoyun, I challenge you to a duel!”

Xiao Xie could see that Xiang Shaoyun was only a second-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator, but whatever Xiang Shaoyun had done to the dark bats was incredibly odd. Xiao Xie couldn't make any sense of what he had seen.

Those dark bats had been late-stage Emperors, but they had all vanished mysteriously just by approaching Xiang Shaoyun. It was unheard of. Thus, Xiao Xie did not dare to underestimate Xiang Shaoyun.

”Reason?” Xiang Shaoyun asked.

”Why do you need a reason to fight? But if you insist, it is due to my curiosity of the capability of someone who had left the central keep safely,” said Xiao Xie as he attacked.
