Chapter 1179: Xiang Kuang Makes a Move
ity, there might not be another chance to seize it in the future. Lu Xia Tian didn't intend to provoke the Zhūfó Sect by touching their sore spot. It is highly probable that he will go and never retur...Lu Xiaitian's expression turned strange upon hearing this. Even the head of the Mangxiao family or the heads of the other six major cultivating families in Xiangguo, upon hearing Xiao Jinlei's name, would definitely not easily clash with him. Perhaps only a freak like Xiang Kuang, who loved to fight and preferred stronger opponents, would be willing to challenge him.
"That's fine too, I can't beat Xiao Jinglei for now. Having Xiang Kuang take care of him isn't a bad thing either. Besides, even just observing this level of combat is a great opportunity."
If Xiao Jing Lei wants to deal with himself, he definitely won't do it in Xiangdu Center. Rumors say that Xiao Jing Lei is extremely vengeful, so if he does take action, he's likely to choose a relatively remote location.
Lu Xia Tian's mouth curled into a smirk. After making an appointment with Xiang Kuang, he strolled out the door.
"Patriarch, the guy from the East has gone out." Just after Lu Xiaoteng went out, the two Nascent Soul mid-stage cultivators stationed around Yaxiao Garden reported his whereabouts to Xiao Jinlei. At this time, not only was Lu Xiaoteng going out, but everyone in the garden who went out was under Xiao Jinlei's control.
“Understood, go busy yourself.” Xiao Jinlei, who was seated at the head of the table, flashed a purple light in his eyes, giving off a cold and restless feeling. With a movement of his body, he shot out like a bolt of lightning. The person who came to deliver the message only felt a flower in front of his eyes before losing Xiao Jinlei’s trace.
Since drinking that Fire King wine, the effects of this shape-shifting pill have been greatly reduced. Going out is not as convenient as before. As soon as Lu Xiaoteng went out, he discovered the cultivators from the Lei family were keeping an eye on him. His silver hair and aura were so conspicuous that it wouldn't be difficult for them to find him. If the shape-shifting pill still worked, shaking off these Yuan Ying cultivators' surveillance wouldn't be too difficult for Lu Xiaoteng.
Seeing the surprise in the tailer's eyes, Lu Xia Tian let out a cold snort. Surprise, perhaps it was fright too.
It was still a desolate Gobi Desert, but it was quite a distance away from Xiang Kuang's Black Prison. Lu Xia Tian raced forward with lightning speed, his ethereal flying sword transforming into a faint, transparent sword-shaped energy shield that enveloped him.
“So you’re a sword cultivator, your speed isn’t bad. Among cultivators of the same rank, you can be proud.” A voice as cold as ice entered Lu Xiaotiān’s ears.
Lu Xiaotian's divine sense spread out, searching everywhere, but he couldn't find any trace of Xiao Jinlei.
As one of the Six Great Tycoons of Xiangguo, he indeed has his unique strengths.
"Master Xiao is indeed swift and decisive, personally coming to block my path. It seems you're determined to win." Lu Xiaoxiao replied.
"It seems you weren't surprised by my arrival. It appears you were prepared. However, what I find curious is your confidence." The familiar voice echoed once more.
Lu Xia Tian looked up. After several conversations, this time he could tell that the other party was above his head, but the area was quite large, and for a moment, he couldn't pinpoint their exact location.
This great cultivator's methods were indeed extraordinary, far surpassing those of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators. His own divine soul was already quite powerful, yet despite knowing that the other party was right before him, he couldn't sense their exact location. Lu Xia Tian frowned and, regardless of Xiao Jing Lei, continued on his journey alone. However, to prevent Xiao Jing Lei from suddenly attacking, Lu Xia Tian lowered the height at which his sword flew.
"Little brother, where have you gotten to I'm here already." While Lu Xiaitian was on alert, Xiang Kuang's voice came again, sounding a bit impatient.
"Just as I thought. I told you, why not use the identity of a royal alchemists That way, it would be easier for me to intervene. You, you have the ability but like to hide and play coy, your actions are too roundabout."
Hearing Xiang Kuang's voice, Lu Xia tian secretly let out a breath. Xiao Jing lei's move didn't reach the point where he couldn't resist, but facing a great cultivator, Bai Yao had to expose a lot of strength. And like the twelfth-order demon beast essence, Lu Xia tian these years had only saved a few. Unless it was a life-or-death situation, Lu Xia tian wouldn't be willing to use it. Using it in this kind of fight would undoubtedly be a huge waste. Fortunately, Xiang Kuang was a fighting maniac. If there was no Xiang Kuang, Lu Xia tian would not have made a move easily. He could only rely on his identity as a master alchemist to bring enough support to resist Xiao Jing lei.
As for Xiang Kuang's words, there is some truth to them. It's just that Lu Xiaotian's identity is awkward and he has many enemies. In this world of strong men like Xiang Du, he does want to act smoothly, but his current strength is far from enough to allow him to act recklessly.
“This is the place, your burial ground, not bad.” A cold voice echoed through the clouds. In the gloomy sky, a dark cloud suddenly burst open, and a figure in purple robes descended from the heavens like lightning, landing before Lu Xia Tian and blocking his path.
What a brilliant tactic! At this moment, Xiao Jinglei appeared. Seeing the cloud mist explode, Lu Xiaocen finally realized that this Xiao Jinglei, as a cultivator of the Lei system, had cultivated his thunderous techniques to an extreme level. While his thunderous techniques were slightly more powerful than other techniques, their use also emitted extremely obvious energy. But this Xiao Jinglei actually concealed himself within the cloud layer, using the natural lightning and thunder within the mist to cover up his own aura, something that was truly beyond ordinary cultivators' capabilities. Lu Xiaocen had already sensed him above his head before, but he couldn't pinpoint Xiao Jinglei's exact location. Even now, knowing Xiao Jinglei's tactics, if they were to do it again, the result would probably be the same.
“It seems that the consequences of offending your Xiao family are quite serious.” Lu Xia Tian stopped his advance, looking at Xiao Jin Lei’s murderous gaze and said.
This is just a test.Let me know if you need anything else translated!
“You, a nobody, dare to challenge the Xiao family Even if you die, no one will cry for you. Even if others know it was me who did this, what can they do about it” Xiao Jing laughed coldly.
>
"To challenge you, Xiao family, is to court death. I wonder how you, the Xiao family, dare to disregard the royal clan and what crime you have committed" Lu Xia Tian said coldly.
>
"You talk too much, die." Xiao Jinlei had no interest in continuing the conversation with Lu Xiaottian. He raised his hand, and a thick bolt of lightning twisted wildly in the air, snarling towards Lu Xiaottian.
“With the manifestation of your power, you truly are formidable. Looks like they underestimated your strength outside.” A figure as red as fire shot in like a meteor, still with that unruly and explosive hairdo, billowing like a flame-red cape. “My younger brother is right, anyone who offends the Xiao family deserves to die. You detained members of my royal family; what will you do As the leader of the Xiao family, you disregard the laws and order of the country. Today, I'll see just how the Xiao family thrives on those who follow and destroys those who oppose them.”
Xiang Kuang saw Xiao Jing Lei's face change drastically, worried that Xiao Jing Lei would back down at the last moment. He didn't give Xiao Jing Lei a chance to retort. With a flick of his sleeve, the Five-Colored Jiao Head Stick shot out from the air, piercing through the huge thunder snake's mouth and shooting out from its tail. The snake formed by lightning instantly exploded with a deafening roar, turning into a scattering of chaotic lightning.
The Five-Colored Dragon Head Staff roared with a sound, its momentum unstoppable. It swelled to a hundred zhang in length, like a pillar reaching the sky, striking Xiao Jinglei on top of his head with the speed of thunder.
