Chapter 291: Yao Lao vs Xiao Jin!
Chapter 291: Yao Lao vs Xiao Jin!
"He's casually patting the head of a seventh level demon beast!"
"And the demon beast is even calling him Brother Liu, what's going on here!"
Witnessing the scene unfolding between Xiao Jin and Liu Ling, Xiao Yan was completely flabbergasted.
"Xiao Yan, stop dazing around, get your two brothers to leave this place quickly. Today's events might get troublesome!" Yao Lao's voice was notably grave as he warned Xiao Yan amidst his astonishment.
Hearing Yao Lao's reminder, Xiao Yan snapped back to reality and quickly turned to shout towards the direction of Xiao Ding and Xiao Li: "Big brother, second brother, hurry and leave Stone Desert City, the farther the better!"
Hearing Xiao Yan's shout, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li also recognized the seriousness of the situation. The aura emanating from the blonde-haired boy had a terrifyingly intimidating quality, and their presence would only burden Xiao Yan if they stayed. Thus, without much hesitation, following Xiao Yan's shout, they took some trusted members of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group and rushed onto the streets, heading swiftly towards the city's exit.
Xiao Yan's loud shout also caught Liu Ling's attention.
Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, Liu Ling's expression instantly turned indifferent.
"Xiao Jin, that guy is using others' strength to bully your Brother Liu, what should you do?" Liu Ling pointed at Xiao Yan and whispered to Xiao Jin.
Hearing Liu Ling's words, Xiao Jin responded without hesitation in his childlike voice, "If someone dares to bully Brother Liu, then naturally, he needs to be dealt with properly!"
After saying this, Xiao Jin's gaze suddenly turned towards Xiao Yan, and immediately, a dense oppressive force surged in Xiao Yan's heart, making him feel suffocated.
"Xiao Yan, this is not something you can withstand right now. Next... let your teacher take over your body!" Yao Lao's somber voice resonated within his heart just as Xiao Yan was overwhelmed by the pressure.
"Okay!"
Hearing the voice in his heart, Xiao Yan slowly closed his eyes.
Meanwhile, Liu Ling had absolute confidence in Xiao Jin's strength, yet Xiao Yan's current actions seemed rather strange.
"Could it be that this guy can actually elevate his strength to Dou Ancestor level?" Liu Ling murmured to himself.
Just then, with his eyes tightly shut, Xiao Yan's eyelids began to tremble slightly. Moments later, his eyes suddenly burst open, emitting bright white glows from what were once dark pupils. An immense aura explosively radiated from within him.
"He actually managed it, it seems he had many hidden depths!"
Seeing the change in Xiao Yan's aura, Liu Ling was somewhat shocked but then patted Xiao Jin's head and asked with some concern, "Xiao Jin, can you handle him in this state?"
"His strength is only slightly weaker than mine right now, I'm not entirely sure I can take him down!" Xiao Jin spoke with a very serious expression.
"Weaker than you, right? Then it's fine, go ahead and take him down!"
After hearing Xiao Jin's words, Liu Ling felt considerably relieved because he knew very well that given Xiao Yan's age, no matter how much he trained or consumed spirit medicines and heavenly treasures, it was impossible for him to break through to Dou Ancestor. This meant that such a capability wasn't his own and couldn't last long, while Xiao Jin was a genuine Dou Ancestor powerhouse. As long as they wore him down, Xiao Yan would definitely be at a disadvantage.
Xiao Jin nodded, then said to Liu Ling, "Alright, Brother Liu, you should step back a bit!"
Knowing his own strength, Xiao Jin waited until Liu Ling had moved several dozen meters away. Then, a golden energy began to surge in his palm. Clenching his hand into a fist, he grasped the golden energy fully in an instant and then punched straightforwardly towards Xiao Yan's direction, sending the mass of golden energy with a fierce gust of wind tearing through the air towards Xiao Yan.
As the golden energy surged towards him, Xiao Yan's black ruler in hand suddenly turned a cold white color, and then he swung it forward fiercely. A white energy burst, almost the size of the golden one, erupted from the tip of the ruler.
Bang!
As the two forces collided rapidly between them, a terrifying energy storm swept outward, leveling buildings near the Mo Tie Mercenary Group's base and the surrounding streets, with cobblestones being lifted and shattered.
Amidst this fierce energy storm, the combatants somehow found themselves high in the air.
This massive commotion immediately drew the attention of the entire city, along with a blanket of fear over everyone's hearts.
The Xiao brothers, who had not yet completely left Stone Desert City, also noticed this scene in the sky.
"Third brother has become so powerful!" Xiao Li watched Xiao Yan, who was seemingly walking on air, with disbelief murmuring from his lips.
"Let's go. Third brother must be using some special method to achieve this strength. It likely won't last long; we shouldn't burden him here!" Seeing Xiao Li standing dumbfounded, Xiao Ding quickly urged him on.
Fortunately, after Xiao Jin spoke, Liu Ling had already led his people away from the entrance of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group's base. Otherwise, the massive impact from earlier would have crushed everyone there.
...
"This demon beast's strength is even stronger than mine right now; we can't drag this out any longer!"
After a brief exchange, Yao Lao made a rough assessment of Xiao Jin's power.
The next moment, "Xiao Yan" gently lifted his palm, and the chilly white flames that were twirling around his fingertips suddenly flared up. In the blink of an eye, his body was completely enveloped in them, and the black ruler he was tightly clutching burst into dazzling light.
The light from the ruler grew more intense, eventually becoming as blinding as the sun, making it difficult to look directly at it.
Then, with a low shout, "Xiao Yan" swung his black ruler fiercely towards Xiao Jin, who was not far away.
"Flame Splitting Tsunami!"
This shout echoed across the sky, unleashing a gigantic crescent-shaped blade of white energy from the top of the black ruler.
The enormous white fire-energy crescent blade shot across the sky, disappearing in a flash. The sudden intense heat almost made the people on the ground feel as if they were caught in a wave of fire.
The crescent blade produced piercing sonic booms, tearing through the sky with an unstoppable force that seemed almost capable of splitting the heavens in two.
Though it was the same combat technique, this time's flame splitting tsunami was nearly dozens of times more powerful than the one Xiao Yan had used against Liu Ling earlier. This stark difference in power was solely the result of the disparity in their intrinsic strengths.
