97 So Powerful! (2/2)
As the strong spiritual sense came crashing down on him, the light from the Exquisite Hongjun Pagoda intercepted it. In the brief moment, the foreign spiritual sense seemed like a little snowflake falling on a red-hot stove. It disappeared without a trace! Not even a single remnant of it remained!
This ancient treasure was a relic left behind by the powerful deity Hua Xia. How can the mere strengths of an ordinary Spirit Xuan expert be compared to the immense power of this legendary artifact that had existed since the beginning of time? Even if all the Spirit Xuan experts in this world gather together, they would simply be a piece of cake for the enigmatic Exquisite Hongjun Pagoda!
The light from the Exquisite Hongjun Pagoda slowly withdrew. As it disappeared, Jun Mo Xie simultaneously disabled his spiritual awareness.
However, only Jun Mo Xie himself understood perfectly everything that just occurred. Even the mysterious expert who had been counterattacked was clueless about what exactly just happened!
In a hidden underground chamber within the Magnificent Jewel Hall, an old man sat cross-legged with his eyes completely closed. All of a sudden, he shuddered violently and his eyes opened swiftly. A look of disbelief filled his eyes. Apprehension and horror were drawn across his face as beads of cold sweat started pouring down his forehead.
After all, he was a Divine Xuan expert himself. But while his spiritual sense was oppressing someone, the opposing party had effortlessly repelled and nullified it! It seemed as if his spiritual power was just an inconsequential speck of dust in the eyes of the opponent! What did this imply?
”Peak of the Divine Xuan realm! Only a person at the peak of the Divine Xuan realm would be able to nullify my spiritual pressure with such ease and yet escape my detection. It is the only possible way to explain this situation!” The white-haired old man cried in shock, ”Why would there be such a potent figure in Tian Xiang Empire? Is a storm imminent in Tian Xiang Empire?”
”Jun Mo Xie!” A clear and distinct voice rang out. Jun Mo Xie turned and was surprised to find Dugu Xiaoyi walking over with a fierce look on her. ”Oh… so you are not… yet.” She was about to say 'you are not dead yet' but she could not bring herself to say it. The word 'dead' seemed morbid and inauspicious. As such, she was extremely reluctant to associate this word with Jun Mo Xie even if it was meant to be a joke.
”Oh it is Miss Dugu Xiaoyi,” Jun Mo Xie smiled as he studied her. ”After not seeing Miss Dugu for so long, you seem to have become more beautiful! You simply make my heart melt.”
Overhearing the conversation, Tang Yuan was taken aback! He could not help but stare at Jun Mo Xie. ”Jun Mo Xie, how could you even have the guts to flirt with this young lady? Have you not gotten enough beatings previously?”
Even Jun Mo Xie's grandfather, a Sky Xuan master and an expert at fighting, only held the second place in his heart. The most cherished person in Jun Mo Xie's heart had always been the vicious and heartless Dugu Xiaoyi. This was something Tang Yuan knew very well.
However, the subsequent events almost let Fatty Tang believe this was all a dream. Dugu Xiaoyi was surprisingly not angered by Jun Mo Xie's ridiculous words. Instead, she blushed slightly and her fierce expression was completely erased. She looked down shyly and asked, ”Really? Do I really look more beautiful than before? Why do I not realize it when I have been looking in the mirror every day?”
”What?” Tang Yuan groaned and momentarily lost his balance. ”What am I hearing? Is this even Dugu Xiaoyi? Could she be her twin sister or something?”
Jun Mo Xie also broke into a cold sweat and was momentarily stunned. ”What tricks is she playing today?” Nodding slowly he forced a reply, ”Yes, yes. It's true, it's true.”
”I must have slimmed down successfully! I shall continue to lose weight and slim down even more!” Dugu Xiaoyi jumped excitedly. But as she landed, a thought seemed to come to her mind. The next moment, she glared viciously at Jun Mo Xie with her large eyes and snapped, ”Jun Mo Xie! What did you just say? How dare you try to take advantage of me? Have you lost your mind? You've really gotten bold!”
Jun Mo Xie was increasingly certain that something was wrong with this girl today. With her attitude switching between the extreme ends, she was certainly making things difficult for him.The next moment, there was a motion from beneath Dugu Xiaoyi's arms. A small, snow-white head stuck out. It had small ears, a small nose, a small mouth, a lovely pink tongue and an adorable pair of eyes. Waving its little paws wildly, the little creature could easily melt the hearts of anyone seeing it.
”A Xuan Beast! Oh my God!” Tang Yuan screamed as his eyes widened, ”An Iron Winged Panther's cub!”
