Several days later, Qin Xiao was alerted by a battle outside the imperial city. A sweep of his divine sense revealed three against two, and delight spread across his face.
Qin Xiao saw through their true forms at a glance. On one side were a human, a bird, and a monkey. The human was Qin Yu, and the bird was the little black bird who followed him, whom Qin Yu called Little Black. His full name was Hei Yu.
Little Black, Xiao Hei. So that was it.
As for the monkey, he had never seen him before, but he could guess who he was: Hou Fei.
The other side consisted of a man and a woman. The woman was the plainly dressed one his divine sense had detected in the imperial city a few days earlier. The man was a handsome young fellow he had never seen before.
Moreover, both were eighth-level Immortal Emperors.
On Qin Yu's side, even the strongest, Hou Fei, was only a sixth-level Immortal Emperor.
Hei Yu and Qin Yu were both only fifth-level Immortal Emperors.
With a flicker, Qin Xiao appeared outside the city, standing a short distance from the combatants and quietly watching their fierce battle.
From the names they called out during the fight, Qin Xiao learned that the man alongside the plainly dressed White Phoenix was named Ao Ku.
Qin Yu's right fist was already smashing forward with boundless power.
Ao Ku's spiked club was still trapped, leaving him no time to dodge. Qin Yu's fist slammed into his chest.
Bones cracked, and blood sprayed.
Ao Ku was sent flying backward. As he flew, his injuries rapidly healed, while his spiked club abruptly shrank and flew straight back into his hand.
"Boom!"
A hazy staff shadow seemed to emerge from hell
