534 Suspicions (1/2)
Huyan Xiao's complexion turned from green to red. Then, it went from red to white. His face then turned an eerie shade of white, and an intense desire to kill spread out on it. He howled in anger, and single-handedly charged towards Jun Mo Xie in order to grab him. His fair and sleek palms turned into blood-red color when he was midway. And, they also began to emit a black aura along with a fishy smell!
”Blood Ocean's Withered Bone Palm!” Ning Wu Qing's gaze flashed to the side as he stated in a deep voice.
He had clearly said this to warn Jun Mo Xie to defend himself.
Jun Mo Xie snorted. He had readied himself to face this attack. The Art of Unlocking the Heaven's Fortune was a remarkable technique. And, it was capable of routing any evil technique. In fact, it would be more effective against a more powerful evil technique. Therefore, Young Master Jun wasn't bothered even though this Young Lord's strength was a few levels higher than his own. In fact, Jun Mo Xie was quite confident. After all, the natural attributes of the two attacks were bound to entangle in an attempt to control each other once they'd collide. Consequently, the power of Huyan Xiao's attack would deflect in the reverse direction. Therefore, it would be a trivial matter in case Huyan Xiao was defeated on the spot. Moreover, it could be reckoned that this guy's heart would be injected with the poison of his own technique in case he was careless and didn't use his full strength to resist this rebound. In fact, it was possible that he might even die there-and-then.
Suddenly, a 'bang' sound came. Then, Huyan Xiao's body was shot upwards with a 'whoosh'. He broke through the ceiling, and flew upwards. However, his blood spilled down from the air like rain drops.
The four masters from the Illusory Ocean of Blood were extremely shocked at first. Then, they rushed after their Young Lord since they were afraid that he might have sustained serious injuries.
Mei Xue Yan stood motionless and at ease in front of Jun Mo Xie. She faintly said, ”Huyan Xiao, even arrogant people should know their limits. You should've come with your father — Huyan Aobo — if you wanted to act this atrociously! You are too weak to behave like this!” her voice wasn't very loud, but it still travelled far into the distance.
It turned out that Mei Xue Yan had suddenly charged-in to grab Huyan Xiao when he had pounced. She had then thrown him away. However, her movements had been so quick that no one present on the scene had seen her actions clearly.
Ning Wu Qing and Ma Jiang Ming had been far better-off than the others. But, even they had only seen a white shadow flash in front of them. Then, Huyan Xiao had flown out. But surprisingly, they hadn't seen how Mei Xue Yan had moved and when her hands had come out to grab him!
The two of them looked at each other in shock. This kind of speed had evidently surpassed their knowledge! This was truly astonishing and terrifying!
However, they were unaware of the facts. Mei Xue Yan's speed had been very fast even a few days ago. In fact, it had been far more than theirs. But, it hadn't reached such a shocking level. However, she had then taken the Vitality Linkage Pill, and her speed has increased by three times as a result. Therefore, it was only natural that the speed of her sudden movements had shocked these two super-experts.
A sullen sound came from a distance. This was followed by the sounds of clothes and bodies being slammed and shattered. However, these sounds gradually faded away. It was obvious that the people from the Illusory Ocean of Blood had decided to leave. In fact, anyone in their position wouldn't have had the face to return…
It could be reckoned that the water from the entire mainland would be insufficient to wash away this shame from their faces!
”Young Lady, may I dare to ask your surname?” Ning Wu Qing profoundly looked at Mei Xue Yan at first. He then asked her with a serious expression on his face.
”My surname is Mei,” Mei Xue Yan faintly answered.
Jun Mo Xie had intended to say something in order to dodge the question, but Mei Xue Yan had already answered it by then.
Ma Jiang Ming and Ning Wu Qing's eyes exposed a strange light at the same time. It was evident that the surname 'Mei' had left the imaginations of these two men to run wild. Ma Jiang Ming laughed in his usual grim manner, and said, ”Mei… this surname… It is rare to across a person with this surname. In fact, there have only been three top-experts who have carried this surname in the last thousand years ot so. But, I haven't heard of you, Young Lady. Are you a descendant of one of them?”
”One of them was Mei Gu Ying. He had shaken the entire world with his might about thirteen-hundred years ago. He had later joined the Elusive Land of Immortals. He then fought in a Battle for Seizing the Heavens a thousand years ago. He had sacrificed himself while fighting the Leader of those 'outsiders', but he had managed to take that enemy down with him. Consequently, his name became a legend. And, the songs of his bravery have been sung ever since. The other was the previous Sacred Lord of Tian Fa Forest — Mei Chang Tian. And, the third has been shaking the Three Holy Lands ever since he has appeared — Tian Fa Forest's Venerable Mei…”
Ning Wu Qing's eyes were closely watching Mei Xue Yan's face. His sword-like gaze was radiating brilliant rays of light all over the place. He then said, ”Miss Mei, you have excellent skill. You must be highly knowledgeable as well. Have you heard about these three individuals?”
”I've never heard of them,” Mei Xue Yan's expressions remained stagnated and unchanged. She then faintly looked at Ning Wu Qing and said, ”I don't understand what you mean by this? Is it necessary to investigate someone's personal history?”
Ning Wu Qing unsheathed his sword-like gaze. His gaze then came in contact with Mei Xue Yan's calm eyes. However, he suddenly felt as if his heart had become sluggish. In fact, it seemed as if his sword-like gaze had broken and rebounded to stab him in reverse. He couldn't help but retreat a step back as a result. The pupil of his eyes contracted as he said, ”I was just joking. But, I must say the Miss is highly tolerant. Please don't blame me.”
Mei Xue Yan sighed and walked out with Jun Mo Xie.
Ning Wu Qing blinked his eyes. Suddenly, he stepped up and spoke-up in a deep voice, ”Young Master Jun, the two of you make a strong and remarkable couple. You can rampage the entire world. So, this Old Man will not blabber nonsense. But, there's one thing I feel that this virtuous couple needs to pay attention to.”
Jun Mo Xie stopped walking, and said, ”Please enlighten us, Senior.”
”I believe that you both can go anywhere in this world since you possess such Xuan strength. But, you need to be careful in case you meet a certain individual,” The three long stands of Ning Wu Qing's beard suddenly started to float even though there was no wind.
”May I ask who that individual is? I genuinely don't know if there's such a power in this world!” Jun Mo Xie smiled faintly. However, he seemed full of confidence.
