Xiao Xian's Self-Destruction

Boom!

Ling Ying rose to his feet, unleashing the aura of a Dou Huang Expert without restraint. Like raging waves, it swept toward the three men, and the immense pressure seemed to freeze the very space around them.

Though Ling Ying had acted extremely humble before Xiao Xian, like a shameless sycophant, that was only because Xiao Xian's strength was too overwhelming—so overwhelming that Ling Ying could only look up at him in awe, forcing him to behave so obediently.

But a Dou Huang was still a Dou Huang. Before those weaker than himself, a Dou Huang Expert was a god standing high above all others, not to be insulted or profaned.

The three shameless villains immediately received the meticulous "care" of a Dou Huang Expert. The crushing pressure bent their bodies, and the three of them sprawled on the ground like dead dogs, coughing up blood mouthful after mouthful, every bone in their bodies shattered.

Clearly, Ling Ying, having suffered humiliation at Xiao Xian's hands, had taken the three men as punching bags. Otherwise, with the strength of a Dou Huang Expert, his aura alone could have killed all three without giving them any chance to resist. They would not have been left in this state, unable to live yet unable to die.

Ling Ying seemed to enjoy tormenting people. Or perhaps being cuckolded for so many years had left him with a bellyful of pent-up rage, and he desperately needed an outlet for all the negative emotions in his heart. The three men had happened to show up at just the right time, so their misery was assured.

Ling Ying gradually increased the pressure he exerted. The three men felt the weight on their bodies grow heavier and heavier. Like fish stranded out of water, they struggled desperately, but it was useless. They could only gape their mouths open and gasp for air, yet barely any entered their lungs.

Slowly, the three dead dogs stopped struggling. A pool of blood had long since formed beneath them. If not for their bodies twitching every now and then, proving they had not yet breathed their last, everyone would have assumed they were already dead.

Though the three were still alive, they were not far from death. Without a Life-Reviving Elixir, their deaths would only be a matter of time.

This story taught everyone a lesson: one must have principles. Underhanded acts like sneak attacks, ganging up on others, and poisoning should never be done. Otherwise, no one could say when some powerful expert might discover you and slap you down, ruining a perfectly good situation in an instant.

"I say, Xiao Lingzi, haven't you eaten? Hurry up and finish off these three ants. I've got other things to do—I don't have time to waste on you." Xiao Xian looked displeased as he watched Ling Ying's twisted grin.

"Yes, yes, yes! My lord, just watch!" The domineering aura around Ling Ying vanished in an instant. He bent at the waist, wore a fawning smile, and nodded obsequiously.

"Die!"

Ling Ying stopped holding back and prepared to slap the three men into pulp.

"Stop!"

A crisp voice and an aged voice rang out at the same time. Then, a man and a woman appeared before Ling Ying, casually blocking his fatal strike with a wave of their hands.

"The Gama Empire's guardian, Jia Xingtian, and the Yunlan Sect's Sect Master, Yun Yun. What do you mean by this? Are you planning to stand up for those three?" Ling Ying was greatly displeased at having his attack blocked, because he had not yet finished his job.

"Fellow Daoist, as a high-level Dou Huang, attacking three juniors is somewhat beneath your status. May I ask how the three of them offended you?" Jia Xingtian said as he stroked his grizzled beard.

He was the guardian of the Gama Empire and the imperial family's old ancestor. His cultivation was on the same level as Ling Ying's; both were high-level Dou Huangs.

Yun Yun was the Sect Master of the Yunlan Sect and a Third Grade Dou Huang herself. Though her cultivation was inferior to theirs, she had a powerful backing. The Yunlan Sect had an old ancestor, Yun Shan, who had reached the realm of a half-step Dou Zong. Recently, there had even been news that he had entered closed-door cultivation. If he emerged successfully, he would undoubtedly become the number one expert in the Gama Empire.

Thus, whether out of sentiment or reason, Jia Xingtian had to give the Yunlan Sect some face and save Ge Ye's life, so that the Yunlan Sect would owe him a favor.

As for Jia Liebi and Ao Bapa, the two of them were merely extras. If they could be saved, then fine; if not, so be it. No one cared in the slightest whether they lived or died.

Well, fortunately, the two of them were unconscious. Otherwise, if they found out they were merely an afterthought in someone else's rescue, would they immediately cough up blood and die from anger?

Xiao Xian had originally been sitting there leisurely watching the show, but the moment he saw one of the figures, his whole expression changed. He even sprayed out the tea he had just drunk.

His eyes darted about. While everyone else's attention was drawn away, he stealthily prepared to slip off.

"Is that you?"

Unfortunately, Xiao Xian's escape plan was never successfully carried out. An enraged voice suddenly rang out beside his ear.

Xiao Xian looked up and met a pair of eyes that seemed ready to spit fire.

"Ahem, hello, beautiful. Long time no see." Xiao Xian looked at Yun Yun awkwardly, guilty as hell.

Yun Yun looked at the man she had been "thinking about day and night," and unpleasant memories surged into her mind. Gritting her teeth, she said, "Good. Very good. Every night, you're all I dream about."

Crack!

Hearing Yun Yun's words, which sounded so much like a confession, everyone who had no idea what was going on immediately dropped their jaws.

There was definitely something going on!

No need to say it—these two absolutely had some unknown history. Could it be that Xiao Xian had done something to wrong Yun Yun, then abandoned her after having his way with her? Was that why they erupted like volcanoes the moment they met?

Everyone felt that they had grasped some kind of truth, only to immediately feel that something was wrong. What if these two decided to silence them?

"Hey, what's the big deal? I only watched you bathe. If you think you got the short end of the stick, then when I go back and bathe later, you can sneak a look too." Xiao Xian said carelessly, completely lacking any awareness that he had sullied someone's honor.

Oh!

Everyone booed in unison, then looked at Xiao Xian with utter contempt. Their gazes were like those directed at a heinous villain guilty of every conceivable crime.

"You bastard, go die!" Yun Yun was instantly driven mad by Xiao Xian's indifferent attitude. Her face flushed scarlet as she drew the sword in her hand and slashed at him.

"Help!"

Xiao Xian let out an extremely exaggerated cry, then took off at top speed on his two long legs.

Xiao Yan's mouth twitched. He had thought he was already shameless enough, but there was always someone worse. Xiao Xian's shamelessness had completely shattered his worldview. Was peeping at a girl bathing something one could just casually announce? And he had even shouted about it everywhere, as though he were afraid others might not know.

Xiao Xun'er also looked speechlessly at Xiao Xian, who was being chased around in a frenzy yet still could not stop flirting. She firmly made up her mind that, starting today, she would keep Brother Xiao Yan away from him. Otherwise, he would sooner or later be led astray.

The miserable Xiao Yan had no idea that his Xun'er had already begun keeping strict watch over him, determined to completely cut off any thoughts he had of flirting with girls everywhere.
