Seeing the grotesque and chaotic lightning swirling within Xiao Tian's palm, Xia He and Xia Liuqing, whose true qi was at its lowest point, felt their scalps tingle and their hair stand on end.
"Young man, wait a moment."
Xiao Tian looked at Xia Liuqing with innocent eyes, waiting for her to continue.
Xia Liuqing was secretly pleased that Xiao Tian had paused, intending to buy herself some time to recover her strength and energy.
"Young man, do you know what it means to respect the elderly and care for the young? I'm an old man, one foot is almost in the grave, what if you kill me in the end?"
Xia He couldn't help but say, "Handsome young man, don't listen to old man Xia. That old man is very wicked. He knows you've let me go, so I'll give you a big gift later, guaranteed to satisfy you."
As Xia He spoke, her beautiful eyes filled with affection and her charm captivating, she made a heart shape with her fingers for Xiao Tian.
" Lingyu said that if an enemy tries to use words or appeal to emotions, there's no need to pay attention; just take action immediately. Although the disciples of the Celestial Master's Manor are kind to the world, there are some people who don't deserve our kindness."
Xiao Tian pretended to be an obedient Baobao, and his muttering made Xia He and Xia Liuqing's faces stiffen.
If Zhang Lingyu were here, he would definitely be speechless and say that he hadn't said anything!
" Xia He, things are bad." Xia Liuqing gasped for breath, pulling out a mask from her hand.
Divine Persona Mask!
In ancient times, there were entertainers who, through their melodious songs and elegant dances, were able to invoke some mysterious power to bless themselves.
This method is similar to the spirit summoning abilities of the shamanic clans of the East and North.
Xia Liuqing's Divine Persona Mask can collect useless faith power generated from the worship, prayers, and statues of gods and Buddhas in temples.
Xia Liuqing put on the Divine Persona Mask, and also quickly donned a pair of special colored gloves.
Xia Liuqing was an actress herself, and she was about to begin her signature performance!
Getting so into character isn't just about making others believe, but also about making yourself believe—it's about becoming a god through your own actions!
A mysterious and eerie aura permeated the surroundings. Xia Liuqing's appearance changed; he was now clad in bronze armor, and the King-Striking Whip in his hand was enveloped in a hazy, ancient light.
This is a hard whip, possessing immense power, capable of shattering anything.
Xiao Tian made a move, and Xia Liuqing made a move as well.
A burst of lightning erupted from his Palm Lightning, its sonic roar mixed with a dragon's cry, deafening and soul-stirring, causing Xia He's face to show discomfort, and she couldn't help but retreat.
Xia Liuqing swung the King-Striking Whip, and an invisible force repelled it, shattering the Palm Lightning and simultaneously affecting Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian felt his blood and qi churning inside him, making him very uncomfortable. He was sent flying several meters backward.
Having learned about Xia Liuqing's Divine Persona Mask ability from the original timeline, Xiao Tian was clear about it, but when they actually clashed, he found it to be incredibly strange.
"Young man, experience counts, do you agree? Hehehe!" Xia Liuqing's voice became authoritative and powerful.
"Old Xia, we're counting on you. My abilities can't affect him; this young man is too naive." Xia He said helplessly. She could clearly see that Xiao Tian's pure heart made him immune to the power of lust, which rendered her abilities useless.
" Xia He, hurry and get reinforcements! This old man can't hold out much longer!"
Xia He gazed at Xiao Tian, made a heart shape with her hands again, and said with a charming smile, "Handsome boy, may I know your name?"
" Xia He, you still have time to ask my name? Hurry up and leave!" Xia Liuqing almost vomited blood. He didn't have much true qi in his body to begin with, and he could barely repel Xiao Tian.
"What a pity." Seeing that Xiao Tian didn't want to talk to her, Xia He turned and left.
" Xia He, watch out!"
Xia Liuqing's expression changed drastically as she realized that the place where Xiao Tian was standing was actually an afterimage; the real person had vanished.
Xia He was extremely terrified at this moment, feeling as if a continuous afterimage of lightning lingered before her eyes, and her eardrums were ringing.
"You've been chasing me for so long, it's time to teach you a lesson, old man. Thanks for that blow, it seems I've learned something."
Xiao Tian began to act for the Old Celestial Master in the shadows, pretending that he had regained some of his memories, and that his eyes had become more bright and lively than before, when he had been innocent and naive.
At the same time, his left eye, the Mangekyō Sharingan, was also directly exposed.
"What kind of eyes are these?" The Old Celestial Master in the shadows was surprised, knowing that Xiao Tian had remembered something, and was a little worried.
Bang!
Xia He was hit by Xiao Tian's sweeping thunder kick, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground, where her legs became numb.
"Damn, that handsome guy is so fast!"
Xia He looked up and saw Xiao Tian's left eye, that somewhat evil black wind scythe, with its red pupil. She felt as if her inner secrets had been seen through, and that he was completely without pretense. A chill ran through her body.
"You little brat, do you really think I'm not human?"
Xia Liuqing was furious. Xiao Tian had actually broken through his blockade and knocked Xia He down.
The King-Striking Whip was swung, and the invisible force acted on Xiao Tian like Air Cannon. However, this time, Xiao Tian relied on the prediction of the Mangekyō Sharingan and the experience of the previous attack to draw on his knowledge and use his basic ability, the Substitution Technique, one of the Three Basic Techniques!
Golden Crow Substitution Technique!
As Xiao Tian transformed into many Golden Crow, Xia Liuqing's attack became ineffective.
One of the Golden Crow, which was flying and scattering across the sky, suddenly unleashed a torrent of black lightning, accompanied by the shrill cry of Chidori, covering a radius of fifty meters around Xia Liuqing, and was subjected to a baptism of thunder.
"Ah!"
Xia Liuqing screamed in pain as her body was electrocuted.
" Xia He, Old Xia!"
At that moment, a short old man wearing a green Zhongshan suit and a tall, obese man with a simple and indistinct appearance rapidly approached, arriving at supersonic speed.
They wore pink bunny-ear shoes, and their movements created a sense of ethereal light.
"A weapon refiner." The Old Celestial Master in the shadows narrowed his eyes and widened slightly.
"Here we go again!" Xiao Tian abandoned his attack on Xia Liuqing and transformed into a bolt of lightning, shooting away into the distance to escape.
" Xia He, are you alright?" Old Man Yuan Tao asked with a grave expression.
"Are they disciples of the Celestial Master's Manor? Their speed is simply too fast."
"This handsome young man is no ordinary person. He possesses powerful Thunder Method, a unique eye, and the ability to evade Old Man Xia's attacks with such profound skill." Xia He's heart was pounding with excitement; Xiao Tian had surprised her far too much.
The Celestial Master's Manor on Mount Longhu has unexpectedly gained such a new figure!
"Damn it..."
The earth was smoldering with smoke and remnants of flame. Old Man Xia, wearing a Divine Persona Mask, was as black as charcoal, and black smoke billowed from his mouth as he spoke.
"Old man Xia, you're lucky you're still alive."
Lost and confused, Xiao Tian contacted Zhang Lingyu via mobile phone and obtained a map showing the route back to Mount Longhu.
As for the safety of his Ninth Senior Brother Rong Shan, Xiao Tian wasn't worried at all. After all, the Old Celestial Master was keeping a close eye on things, and those people from the Quanxing wouldn't be enough to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
