The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 87 A Young Girl's Heart is Always Poetry
No one noticed Lan Qin'er's girlish thoughts. After Chen Xiao left, the square returned to its original order. But without a doubt, everything that had just happened had made everyone present remember Chen Xiao's name.
"Brother Xiao is Brother Xiao, so cool wherever he goes!" On the way back, Xiao Liuzi flattered Chen Xiao with a cheeky smile.
"Don't you think I embarrassed you?" Recalling Xiao Liuzi's embarrassed expression when he learned that he only had a first-grade spirit seed, Chen Xiao joked.
"Hehe, how could I..." Xiao Liuzi blushed, and he also felt ashamed of his performance just now.
Just then, Chen Xiao suddenly stopped. Xiao Liuzi was wondering why Chen Xiao had suddenly stopped when he heard Chen Xiao say with a sneer, "You've been following for so long, it's time to come out, right?"
Chen Xiao had already noticed that someone was following him, and he could guess who it was without even thinking.
Sure enough, as soon as Chen Xiao finished speaking, the sound of wind rose. Then, a black shadow flashed, and the next moment, a solitary figure appeared in front of Chen Xiao and the other. Needless to say, this person was naturally Wang Hao.
"Not bad, you can actually find me." Wang Hao's face was ashen, and his voice was icy cold. Ever since Chen Xiao left the square, he had been secretly following him, thinking of finding a deserted place to teach Chen Xiao a lesson, but he didn't expect that he would be discovered by Chen Xiao first.
"Of course, who is my Brother Xiao? Discovering your kind of nameless nobody's stalking is a piece of cake." Xiao Liuzi said with a look of disgust, and the "nameless nobody" in his mouth undoubtedly referred to Lan Qin'er saying she didn't recognize Wang Hao just now.
He could also see that there seemed to be some grudges between Wang Hao and Chen Xiao. Since he was Chen Xiao's enemy, he naturally wouldn't hold back.
"You..." Wang Hao was indeed furious when he heard Xiao Liuzi's words. He suppressed his anger, glanced at Xiao Liuzi, and said contemptuously, "Hmph, a good-for-nothing is a good-for-nothing, even his lackeys are good-for-nothings."
"Hey, how can you talk like that..." Xiao Liuzi looked displeased when he heard Wang Hao's words, and angrily rolled up his sleeves.
"With your kind of good-for-nothing strength, you want to fight me?" Wang Hao's eyes widened, and he said fiercely.
Only then did Xiao Liuzi remember that there was a huge gap in strength between him and Wang Hao. His body froze, but he refused to show weakness, saying, "Brother Xiao, let's go. Don't waste your breath with this kind of nameless nobody."
Chen Xiao naturally wouldn't leave. He stood in front of Xiao Liuzi, stared at Wang Hao, and said in a deep voice, "He's not my lackey, but my friend. Also, in my eyes, you're not even as good as trash."
Hearing Chen Xiao's words, Xiao Liuzi was deeply moved, but he was also secretly suffering. The opponent was at the fifth level of Body Tempering. Even if the two of them were tied together, they wouldn't be a match for him. This time, they were in trouble.
Wang Hao laughed wildly when he heard this, "Haha, a good-for-nothing hiding behind a woman dares to be so arrogant. Now that that woman isn't here to help you, I'd like to see what you can rely on to shout at me."
Chen Xiao rolled his eyes at Wang Hao and said coldly, "If you want to fight, then fight. Why so much nonsense?"
Chen Xiao knew that he couldn't leave today, so he might as well have a good fight. Although there was a three-level difference in cultivation between him and Wang Hao, it was definitely not his style to cower before a fight.
"You're lucky, I didn't kill you last time, but since you want to die so much, I'll grant your wish." Seeing that the usually weak and incompetent Chen Xiao had become so tough, Wang Hao felt that his dignity had been challenged. He gritted his teeth with anger, and a strong fighting intent rose from his body. He slapped Chen Xiao with his palm.
Faced with Wang Hao's attack, Chen Xiao did not panic in the slightest. Although Wang Hao had the cultivation of the fifth level of Body Tempering, Chen Xiao might not be much weaker than Wang Hao in terms of pure strength. So Chen Xiao clenched his fists and met Wang Hao head-on.
The fists and palms collided, making a muffled sound, and the two retreated several steps at the same time.
In the first round of the confrontation, the two were evenly matched, but their moods were very different.
Chen Xiao was secretly delighted. The effect of cultivating the Godslaying Art actually exceeded his expectations. He originally thought that he only had the power to fight a fourth-level Body Tempering martial artist, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't be at a disadvantage even when fighting a fifth-level Body Tempering martial artist.
On the other hand, Wang Hao looked surprised and was shocked.
"How is this possible? Compared to a few days ago, this trash's cultivation has only increased by one level, but why was he completely unable to resist me a few days ago, but now he can fight me evenly despite being a level lower?"
"No, I must not let this trash continue to grow like this. Today, I must take his life." Thinking of his past grudges with Chen Xiao, Wang Hao had a murderous intention. He quickly mobilized the yuan qi in his body, and a ball of flames faintly appeared on his palm.
"Flame Burst Palm!"
Wang Hao didn't plan to hold back. The Flame Burst Palm martial technique was the highest-level martial technique he had mastered. It was a low-grade Xuan-level martial technique, and its power should not be underestimated.
Seeing that Wang Hao had used a martial technique, Chen Xiao also looked solemn. He quickly urged the yuan qi in his body and used the first stance of the Six Union Fist that he had just learned, the Crushing Fist, and a ball of blue light floated on his fist.
Looking at the faint blue light on Chen Xiao's fist, Wang Hao smiled contemptuously, "Hmph, you want to resist my Flame Burst Palm with a mere Huang-level martial technique? You really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
"Flame Burst Palm, go!"
With a loud roar, Wang Hao's Flame Burst Palm was pushed out. The moment the yuan qi left his palm, it made a crackling boom.
"Six Union Fist, Crush!"
Chen Xiao's expression changed slightly, and he punched out with all his might to resist the Flame Burst Palm, but he underestimated the power of the Flame Burst Palm. In addition, his Crushing Fist had only just achieved minor success. The difference in power between the two was huge. This time, when their fists and palms collided, there was a roar, and Chen Xiao was directly knocked flying.
"Pfft!" Chen Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood. He was obviously seriously injured by Wang Hao's palm.
"Hmph, so vulnerable!" Wang Hao became proud in an instant after a successful blow. He condensed flames in his hand again, intending to kill Chen Xiao.
"Flame Burst Palm, go!"
Wang Hao pressed his attack. Just as he was about to strike with his palm, he suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind him. There was no time to turn around and meet the attack at this time, but if he didn't turn around and continued to strike Chen Xiao with this palm, he was afraid that he would be hit before he could even touch Chen Xiao.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The person who was attacking Wang Hao had obviously chosen the right time to strike, but it had to be said that Wang Hao's reaction was quick enough. He quickly adjusted the aura in his body and somersaulted forward, barely dodging the attack from behind.
