Chapter 478 - 465: Brimming with Fighting Spirit
The origin of all this turmoil is because of the person in front of me.
Intense hatred made Ouyang Qingdong’s eyes red, his face twisted, vicious and gloomy.
He moved extremely quickly, wielding a black metal iron rod, seething with murderous intent.
"Hmph, dare to cause trouble on my turf, today you’ll leave with no return."
Cheng Xiaoxiao stepped forward with a stern little face.
"Xiaoxiao, be careful."
Cheng Hao knew Xiaoxiao had many strange tools, her skills weren’t low, yet he couldn’t help but worry. His sister was still so young, it’s his fault as the older brother for being useless.
Since the siege began, Ouyang Qingdong hadn’t made a move. Judging by his formidable demeanor and scornful gaze, he was absolutely no kind-hearted person.
He leapt seven or eight meters into the air, soaring over the heads of the soldiers, his power was exceptionally strong, the metal iron rod in his hand weighing one to two hundred pounds, and his speed was astonishingly fast, enough to instantly catch up with tigers and leopards in the forest.
With fierce eyes and decisive brutality, he was a dangerous and tough opponent.
In a flash, he collided with the petite figure.
Both of their gazes were sharp and fearless, directly engaging, as deafening metallic clashing echoed, the alloy long sword met the iron rod, sparks flying, the sound was enough to tear through one’s eardrums.
The powerful air currents pushed everyone around back a dozen steps.
No one expected Cheng Xiaoxiao’s diminutive body to withstand the towering forceful opponent, their Qi Force was evenly matched.
It was clear that both sides had achieved quite impressive accomplishments.
Though, the scene seemed a bit bizarre.
Even Ouyang Qingdong was surprised, that small body actually possessed such formidable strength, able to directly counter his deadly strike.
This was simply humiliating for him.
With a roar, he stepped back with his left foot, his heel sinking into the ground, cracks rapidly spreading outward, muscles swelling, power surging, a new burst of strong Qi Force emanating from his body.
He directly caused Cheng Xiaoxiao to stagger backward, then Ouyang Qingdong thrust the iron rod forward.
Cheng Xiaoxiao bent over at a 90-degree angle, dodging the iron rod attack, and in the process performed a whirlwind kick, flipping up.
As her body moved forward like lightning, the sword tip, shimmering with a dim light, charged forward.
Swish, swish, swish!
The iron rod and long sword tangled, both attacking and defending, advancing and retreating, bringing about chilling winds and explosions, over a hundred moves exchanged in a few breaths, dazzling onlookers.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Bang, bang, bang!
Where they passed, sand and rocks flew, deafening explosions, it seemed like thunder erupted on the spot, broken wood and branches flew, many people’s hearts beat wildly.
The speed at which both wielded their swords turned into a series of afterimages, only able to see the trajectory of shadows, unclear on the style and moves.
Everyone was stunned; what incredible speed and terrifying strength!
In this area, fist-sized stones and withered branches were swept up, swirling around the two, with wind and crane cries, strong Qi Force seemed to connect with the world’s energy, inexplicably forming a field about to rip the opponent apart.
This battle was simply too fierce, many people retreated again and again.
Ouyang Qingdong’s pupils contracted slightly, chills spreading throughout his body, hair standing on end; that sword just nearly pierced his chest.
He was sent flying over ten meters away, nearly shattering in mid-air, a true horror.
If it had directly pierced through him, blood would have splattered instantly, truly infuriating. He, a little girl, forced him into such dire straits.
At the critical moment, he took a deep breath, pores all over his body expanding, as if crushing something, a mysterious power circulated through his body, instantly reviving his exhausted form completely.
With force, another hand popped a bottle cap, sensing the touch in his hand, he smiled wickedly.
Targeting the opponent’s killing move, determined to make the person in front unable to live nor die.
Ouyang Qingdong’s blood boiled within, as if resonating with a cheer.
"Host, be careful, there’s a Poisonous Insect on the back of his hand."
If it weren’t for the system’s careful observation, it’d be difficult to notice that little anomaly in the dazzling fight.
Cheng Xiaoxiao snorted coldly disdainfully.
’Lowly tricks, almost costing her her life before, thinking of trying again today.’ She must slay this old cur today right here.
Watching from the side, Yuan Duwei also felt a lingering fear. Not seen for months, unexpectedly, the little girl has grown so quickly, able to fight evenly with one of the top elders of the Ouyang Family; these people are clearly no match for her now.
It seemed Phoenix City was about to be taken, unexpectedly a sudden change, truly unwilling.
The sword tip grazed the opponent’s neck and shoulder, taking away a few strands of his hair and a layer of flesh, a streak of blood appeared naturally.
Ouyang Qingdong ignored the stinging pain on his neck, taking the opportunity to throw the Poisonous Insect at Cheng Xiaoxiao’s body. In the moment the insect touched her collar, it was stored in the system’s warehouse.
Though the space’s upgrade enables it to store living things, the warehouse only has a preservation function, unable to house living things; any live creature in the warehouse will stop breathing, and within ten seconds, the Poisonous Insect will undoubtedly die.
The system snorted in disdain, does it think the host is still the host they could bully before?
As if it doesn’t exist?
With their current wealth and the host’s enhanced abilities, even venturing alone into the Ouyang Family wouldn’t be a problem.
Ouyang Qingdong’s joy of having succeeded in his scheme was still on his face, not yet faded, his back’s intense pain pulled him back to reality.
The long sword was only an illusionary move; the true killing strike came from Cheng Xiaoxiao’s mysterious old buddy, straight through his back.
Cheng Xiaoxiao used Ouyang Qingdong’s momentary negligence, that 0.1-second gap, to slay him.
As for his hopes of seeing her miserable fate after the insect had taken hold, afraid they wouldn’t get that chance.
The crowd was in uproar, all gaping, shocked and awed, how strong was this little girl’s power? Slaying a Void Realm expert with a few hundred moves?
Indeed, people shouldn’t be judged by their appearances.
Without a general leading the soldiers, who would give their all?
Cheng Xiaoxiao’s ferocity planted an indelible shadow in everyone’s hearts; in the instant her gaze swept over, they all backed away, eyes dodging, not daring to meet her directly.
The most horrified were Yuan Duwei and Ouyang Can.
His, his, his uncle was killed just like that.
At this moment, Ouyang Can’s mind was a muddle, staring at his uncle who died with eyes open, unwilling to believe the scene before him was real.
Yuan Duwei, however, had thoughts racing in his mind; Phoenix City had grown much stronger, unable to take it down with Yuan Yang City’s forces, and in this siege, Ouyang Family’s power played the biggest role, now with the sudden death of the elder leading Ouyang Family, the army will suffer an immeasurable impact, morale certainly diminished, unfavorable for continued offense.
Yuan Duwei’s face turned grim, eyes fierce like a man-eater, burning with intense hatred towards Cheng Xiaoxiao. Turning around, he changed his demeanor and gently suggested to Seventh Young Master Can, "Phoenix City has truly gone too far, daring to kill someone from the Ouyang Family right in front of everyone, they must be tired of living. But given the urgent matter regarding Elder Qingdong, perhaps we should attack another day."
