Chapter 124: Your Real Identity? (1/2)

After swinging me around in the air for what seemed like minutes, the White Pearl Snake finally let me go. Well, more like my body got torn into three pieces so it accidentally dropped me.

Every pair of eyes in the audience and in the stage alike looked at me with great confusion in their eyes. They couldn't believe that I was able to survive such a beating and I'm still alive. Even Shen Rong, who was supposed to be stopping the fight right about now since it was plain that Xiang Xiaoqing was taking it a bit too far, just stared at us as if he doesn't have an inch of influence on the stage. As for me, my head, my torso, and my legs were all in different parts of the stage and I have no way of getting it.

”Y-you! Why aren't you poisoned?” Xiang Xiaoqing pointed her finger towards me in shock. Throughout the whole match, she just kept on expressing how surprised she was by my existence.

Well, the fact that I'm a rabid human right now is something I can't tell them. With a wry smile on my face, I responded as enthusiastically as I could. ”Aren't you supposed to ask why I'm not dead yet? Look at me!” I exclaimed.

A series of gasps finally exploded on the stage as they stared at the sorry state my body was in. As for Liu Zhi and the others, they weren't the least bit surprised.

In fact, Yang Mei Mei was the only one who appalled by it. Without further ado, she tried to jump from the audience seats to the stage but Blade was able to stop her just before she did so. ”No! I have to help him.”

Yang Mei Mei gritted her teeth in anger but then, she realized that Liu Zhi and the others weren't making their move.

”Trust him, just wait.” Liu Zhi simply said.

After hearing that delightful conversation about me. I rolled my head towards my torso and somehow managed to connect my neck. Reattaching my legs was easier and then I was up and running again. I sighed in relief since Xiaoqing didn't attack me while I was reconnecting my limbs. She just stared at me open-mouthedly, probably trying to explain how someone like me could use the heating element as well.

When in fact, I'm not even using the Healing Element. It was just my unique constitution as a rabid human— or rather, half rabid human.

”Do you believe me now? You have no chance of winning against me.” I said.

For a final touch, I summoned Feng, the rare rabid human baby I got from when Liu Zhi's party and I were traveling. Seeing the White Pearl Snake which was hundreds of times larger than him, Feng let out an ear-piercing shriek that resounded throughout the coliseum. The shriek didn't carry a sense of cowardice, but a challenge towards the White Pearl Snake.

At first glance, I expected the White Pearl Snake to get furious and attack Feng. But that wasn't what unfolded. After the shriek, the White Pearl Snake backed away like a meek servant who had just come in contact with his master.

Kiiieaahhhhk!!!

Kiiieeehhhhkkkk!!!

Finding his renewed courage, Feng continued shrieking at the White Pearl Snake until it backed away into a corner, covering its face with its tail. Obviously, it was scared.

This shocked even more since Feng looked unmistakably weaker than the White Pearl Snake, and yet Feng was overpowering the snake so gloriously.

”Feng, that's enough,” I said. The message has been delivered and there was no need to drive the nail home anymore. I was the clear winner of the match and there's no need to continue it.

With a hint of contempt in her eyes and with cheeks flushed with anger, Xiang Xiaoqing cupped her hands and admitted her defeat. ”It's my loss. I underestimated who you were Yong Rui. I thought I had the upper hand and yet, you didn't even lay a single finger on me.”

”I'm not the type to force myself on someone so if I could win without hurting a beautiful lady like you, then I'm honored. For someone your age, you're already plenty strong. I know that a few years— no, a few months from now, you can surpass me. With your talent and my guidance, you can soar to new heights. A level of power that you would've never dreamed of if you were to stay in the White Pearl Sect.”

I kind of sidetracked from the words I was going to convey to her but it was all for the better.
