Chapter 216 Chaotic Battles
Xiao Chen was alarmed. Had Su Xiaomei awakened? That was right. Su Xiaomei would surely hold an irredeemable grudge against Ye Yuexuan for entrapping Xiao Ning back then.
“Listen. This woman isn’t Ye Yuexuan…”
“Save it! I won’t be able to last for more than fifteen minutes but I’ll be borrowing your body for a bit!”
“Hey, don’t cause trouble at this time…”
Xiao Chen felt himself losing control over his body before he could finish his sentence. Like an arrow shooting out of a bow, the halberd in his hand lunged at the mysterious woman. The overwhelming power roused a storm in an instant.
Bai Susu, Yi Tong, None-flower Dust, and the rest—including the cultivators watching from a distance—were all startled.
Right now, Xiao Chenw possessed most of Su Xiaomei’s power. The force imbued in the halberd was no ordinary force. Before the halberd reached the mysterious woman, layers upon layers of black mist were already emerging from the body of the weapon. Coupled with the hissing of devils, the scene was enough to strike fear into anyone.
Detecting a murderous aura pressing close, the mysterious woman immediately retreated. From under the hood of her mantle, she glared at her attacker. “Xiao Chen, have you gone mad?!”
Deep inside, Xiao Chen was startled. The woman used her True Qi to coat her throat, making it difficult for him to recognize her voice. But how did she know his name? Before Xiao Chen could explain himself, Su Xiaomei manipulated his body into throwing the halberd again.
In Xiao Chen’s hand, the power of the Spirit-annihilation Halberd became astonishing. Not even a Nirvana Realm cultivator would dare to utilize the halberd in such an aggressive manner. The mysterious woman also noticed this. She ran all around, choosing not to confront Xiao Chen head-on.
Seeing Xiao Chen throwing his halberd again and again at the mysterious woman, the rest knew that he was determined to take her life. However, the woman was evidently an orthodox cultivator; why was he changing sides at this time and choosing to help those from the Devil Clan? No one understood what was going on or why his cultivation inexplicably skyrocketed.
Yi Tong hastily yelled, “Brother Xiao, what are you doing?!” Murong Xian’er also cried, “Brother Xiao Chen, come back immediately!”
Bai Susu narrowed her eyes. “No, someone’s using the soul-swapping technique to control him!”
Deep inside, Xiao Chen was crying about his fate. To think that someone finally understood what happened to him. Bai Susu glared at him and asked, “Who are you? What are you trying to do?”
Ye Wuxin sneered. “To think you have the mood to meddle with someone in the middle of a battle with me! Do you think I’m dead?” He launched an abrupt attack at Bai Susu.
Bai Susu didn’t have the luxury of being distracted. Moreover, Xiao Chen couldn’t reply because he was under Su Xiaomei’s control. He continued to attack the mysterious woman, who seemed to have noticed his strangeness. No longer having any misgivings, the woman kept hitting Xiao Chen with the magic power rising from her palm.
The vital force in the air surged so violently that it nearly leveled the entire Zuoqiu family estate. Xiao Chen was trapped inside a whirlpool of force. Even though Su Xiaomei protected him from harm, it didn’t mean that he felt no pain!
The Bloodied Mad Swordsman sneered. “Ye Yuexuan, looks like I’m not the only one who wants your life!” He manipulated his Full Moon Bloodied Blade to attack the mysterious woman.
The mysterious woman was at a disadvantage now that it was two-against-one. Danger sprang up all around her. Whether it was Xiao Chen’s Spirit-annihilation Halberd piercing her or the Bloodied Mad Swordsman’s Full Moon Bloodied Blade hitting her, all attacks dealt severe damage on her soul.
In the distance, Yu Linglong and the Corpse Puppet were turning the world upside down with their battle. Everywhere they passed would surely leave a trail of destruction in their wake. Bai Susu and Ye Wuxin’s battle high up in the sky was so intense that it seemed irresolvable. The scene was a complete mess with saber radiance, sword shadows, Devil Qi, and Demon Qi weaving across each other in the air. The entire Zuoqiu family estate had turned into a battlefield for the experts.
The onlooking cultivators had long become stupefied. The rest being powerful was one thing, but Xiao Chen cleaving the mysterious woman’s layers of Sword Qi without being harmed was another. He could even carve a place for himself in this massive battle between experts. This was far beyond what they had imagined.
Zuoqiu Yang loathed every minute of this development. He was the VIP of the younger generation of the Zuoqiu family as well as the direct disciple of the Divine Mist Sect Leader. Yet in the face of a true battle between experts like this, he could only run far away to avoid the aftermath. Once he got close to the battlefield, he would surely perish.
But he couldn’t accept this. To him, it wasn’t fair that a nobody like Xiao Chen could rise in a battle between experts while he was forced to run far from the battlefield. He both hated and envied Xiao Chen for this.
Out of the blue, he fished out a red pill and popped it into his mouth. He then started reciting a spell. Zuoqiu Que, who stood next to him, spotted this and cried in alarm, “Where did you get that Fate-transforming Pill? That will take a hundred years off your lifespan! What are you trying to do?! Don’t you want your life anymore?!”
“Leave me alone! I’m going to help Lord Ancestor deal with those from the Devil Clan!”
