Chapter 231.2 - Plotted Against By The Relatives; An Attack At Midnight (17 & 18)
Needless to say, everybody knew who it was when a hurricane-like scary air came down from above them.
This time, it aimed not only at Cheng Biyuan and the lot, but everybody there!
Experiencing the ruthless terror, everybody turned pale, very pale. They all felt like drowning victims who had lost their rights to breath.
“He…!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t watch on any longer, she immediately released all the most powerful mystical beasts from the dimension!
ROOOAARRR!
HIIIISSSSS!
AARRWWOOOO!
Immediately, the old man in grey, who was just about to increase his pressure on everyone, was surrounded by hundreds of mystical beasts. He was so shocked that his qi was disrupted, relieving everybody down under.
“Miss!”
“Xiao Xiao!”
“Big sister!”
When everybody had regained their composure a bit, they immediate saw that the person standing on top of the head of the fiery lion and cried out in surprise.
Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t pay any of them any attention. She stared straightly at the startling old man.
“Senior, was that really necessary? Even a rabbit will fight back when it’s desperate!” She wasn’t loud, but everybody heard her clearly.
By now, the old man in grey had regained his composure. He didn’t care about the mystical beasts that had him surrounded. They maybe a bit of a threat to him, but he trust that these junior-level mystical beasts were nowhere close to life-threatening to him.
He was more shocked by how the young woman appeared in front of him. He did not sense her appearance at all up to that point.
With his level of cultivation, his mind’s eye could cover the entire town of Daling easily, let alone just this little village. Nobody could move around undetected by him.
Yet this young woman appeared out of nowhere. More importantly, all these mystical beasts also appeared out of nowhere. This was not the ability of a regular beast tamer, perhaps not even that of a master beast tamer.
“Young woman, how did you get here?” asked the old man with his eyes squinted.
Cheng Xiao Xiao stood nonchalantly in front of him and said, “Oh, about the same as how senior could hover in the air!”
“HO HO HO!” The old man’s cackling was sickening to those around them. Particularly those who have no cultivation, they felt dizzy and weak at their knees.
“Senior came to our house for our mystical water and mystical animals. We can work with senior. Will you show us some mercy?” asked Cheng Xiao Xiao as she looked straight at the old man, holding a jade vine in each hand.
“Young woman, do you think I will show you mercy just because you asked so nicely?” asked the old man sarcastically. “All I need to do is kill you all and this place will be mine. And if someone killed me, then this place will be there, young woman….”
“Stop. I know what you mean now. It was silly of them to try to reason with a bandit!”
With an angry look, Cheng Xiao Xiao waved the jade vines in her hands and called out, “Attack!”
ROAARR!
HSSSTT!
ARRWOOO!
Following their order, all the mystical beasts lunged toward the old man in grey madly.
The two jade vines moved like two mystical snakes and also aimed toward the old man in grey. These two vines came from little Yuteng’s main branch; they were equivalent to little Yuteng’s limbs, and much more powerful than the normal ones.
“Xiao Xiao!”
Mrs. Cheng saw her daughter charging at the man; she could not contained her fear and paleness and shouted out uncontrollably.
All the other people stared straight at the person standing on top of the mystical beast. They never knew that the petite Cheng Xiao Xiao could face such a strong opponent.
Especially the ones from the Tian’s. They came from the nine top sects and knew full well how strong this old man in grey was. They couldn’t even be sure that their sect master would take him on.
Brother Tian’s stared motionlessly at her silhouette. At this moment, their minds were blank and they weren’t able to think. There was only one thought in their minds – could they really afford to offend this woman?
“Zheng Yuan, look after your mother!” Cheng Biyuan had his fallen wife in his arms as he talked to his son. Then, immediately, he summoned his mystical beast and rushed up next to his daughter. Seeing that, Zhou Jinjiang also summoned his fiery bird and hopped on top of it to join the battle!
SNAP!
BANG!
The old man in gray took on the mystical beasts with both hands. The mystical beasts were swept out; as though struck by thunder, they all let out a pitiful cry and bounded off like cannons. The old man’s rampant qi had blew them far out.
Shrilling screams came from all corners and resounded admits the quiet forests!
“Bastard!” Cheng Xiao Xiao’s eyes turned red from anger. She raises these mystical beasts herself; she would be sad even if only one of them were hurt. On top of that, her relationships with the mystical beasts were not like those of regular beast tamers. She was more in tune with them emotionally; over the days that they have spent together, she was emotionally attached to them.
SMACK! SMACK!
SMACK! SMACK!
While he was bounded by three pythons, the vines in Cheng Xiao Xiao’s hands finally was able to hit him, despite the qi he had protecting him.
It was as though the jade vines could get through his qi. Cheng Xiao Xiao was ecstatic that she was able to hi him, the vines in her hand were moving even faster now.
SMACK! SMACK!
“You little brat! You want to die? I’ll let you!”
Under his brutal and callous voice, he stomped down. A ripple of air expanded out from his foot. A giant leap and he leapt out of the surrounding mystical beasts. He struck with his open palm toward Cheng Xiao Xiao. Rocking heaven and earth, it was clear that he fully intended to kill Cheng Xiao Xiao with one strike.
“Xiao Xiao, watch out!”
Right behind her, Cheng Biyuan’s eyes turned blood red as he watched on!
