Chapter 424: Teaching a Lesson

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Boom!

A deafening boom sounded from above the arena.

The aftermath of the explosion quickly spread to the surroundings. In an instant, dust flew up from the entire arena, causing people to be unable to see the situation clearly for a moment.

Gu Xi and Qing Zhu retreated one after another, leaving enough space for Little Nine to fight. Of course, the two of them were still very confident in Little Nine’s strength.

On the other hand, Xie Long’s heart was a little perturbed. The spiritual sense he released could not sense Little Nine’s existence at all. He even felt that Little Nine had already been reduced to ashes by his attack.

“She shouldn’t die so easily, right?” A huge amount of spiritual sense spread out like a fishing net. Xie Long could not help but frown.

However, before he could further search, an ear-piercing sound pierced through the air. Immediately, a wisp of snow-white flew out from the flying dust in the sky.

Due to the sudden development, Xie Long did not have the time to react at all. In his desperation, he could only build a spiritual energy barrier in front of him to protect himself. However, he did not expect that under this wisp of snow-white, his defense was actually useless.

Puchi —

In just an instant, the barrier was easily penetrated like a piece of paper.

That wisp of snow-white appeared in front of Xie Long in the blink of an eye. Xie Long could even see the furry fur on its surface. In the next moment, his entire body flew backward.

‘This is… a junior?!’

Before his body flew out, this was the only thought in Xie Long’s mind.

After all, he was a genuine late-stage Saint cultivator. Yet, he was actually sent flying by a junior with a single strike!

If this news were to spread, it would be fine if people laughed at him. More importantly, if he sent a late-stage Saint cultivator flying with a single strike, what kind of cultivation realm was the other party at?

At the very least… She had to be at the late-stage Saint!

Thinking of this, Xie Long could not help but feel a surge of shock in his heart.

Little Nine looked to be about the same age as Gu Xi and Qing Zhu, but her strength was already comparable to his own, and it was even very likely that she had already surpassed him!

At such a young age, late-stage Saint… What kind of monstrous talent was this?!

Xie Long flew back more than 1,000 steps, but before he could even catch his breath, Little Nine’s continuous attacks had already arrived.

Taking advantage of the time before the dust settled, streaks of snow-white long arcs tore through the air from the dust that filled the sky. At this time, Xie Long was unable to free his hands to launch an attack, and could only choose to dodge. He looked extremely miserable.

Boom boom boom boom boom —

After a series of loud bangs, the originally restored and flat ground once again revealed a bottomless hole.

“Damn it, why is this woman so strong!?” Once again dodging an attack, Xie Long cursed while panting heavily.

At this moment, his entire body was drenched in sweat. During this period of passive dodging, he had already used his spiritual sense to lock onto Little Nine’s position. However, due to Little Nine’s attacks being too concentrated, he could only watch. Even if he had the intention to attack, he could not do anything.

“Elder Xie, do you still want to continue?” At the same time, Gu Xi’s voice came from the dust in front of him.

Hearing this, Xie Long could not help but swear. He looked in the direction where the voice came from and said in a deep voice, “What ability do you have to hide and not come out? Why don’t you come out and have a good face-to-face practice!”

As long as Little Nine dared to show up, Xie Long had absolute confidence that he could defeat him.

However, the premise was that this obvious provocation would only work if someone took the bait.

Just as his voice fell, a graceful figure appeared just a few meters in front of him, followed by a cold voice.

“Do you think that you’re my match if we fight face-to-face?” Little Nine did not say anything and raised her hand to deliver a palm strike.

Seeing this, Xie Long grinned. He never thought that Little Nine would actually approach him so easily. She was indeed too young and impetuous.

Without thinking too much, Xie Long raised his hand and also threw a palm strike.

Although he was not a cultivator who specialized in cultivating the physical body, he still had a lot of confidence in his physical body. Even though the two of them might not be in the same cultivation realm, he did not believe that a woman would spend time cultivating her physical body.

Bang —

Along with a muffled sound, Xie Long’s expression changed again.

He only felt an irresistible force coming from the slender snow-white hand in front of him, and a tearing pain came from his palm. He could clearly feel that his bones had been shattered.

The intense pain made his face instantly turned pale. He fell backward uncontrollably, but the slender hand held his wrist tightly.

In the next moment, Xie Long started spinning like a fan. The dizziness in his brain made him want to retch, but before he could open his mouth, he was thrown out like a piece of trash. He crashed into the wall at the edge of the arena, and his entire body was embedded into the wall.

The dust in the air gradually fell, and the sight on the stage became clear again. Gu Xi and Qing Zhu’s postures did not change at all. They just retreated a little bit compared to just now. On the other side of Gu Xi, Little Nine stood quietly, as if she had never moved.

“He’s not dead, is he?” Gu Xi spoke faintly.

“I just taught him a simple lesson.” Little Nine replied.

Hearing this, Gu Xi secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Although Xie Long was a member of the Ancient Sect and did not get along with Gu Xi, Gu Xi did not really dislike him. Moreover, the outer realm demonic race had already infiltrated the Eastern Continent. If they were to take revenge on the Ancient Sect and other first-rate sects now, it would undoubtedly greatly reduce the combat strength of the entire Eastern Continent.

After all, if the demonic race from the outer realms were to really make a comeback one day, then the Ancient Sect, the Zhan Clan, and a series of other sects would become the mainstay of the entire Eastern Continent. At that time, they would still have to rely on their own strength to expel or kill the invaders.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

At the same time, Xie Long’s cough could be heard from the other side.

It was not easy for him to squeeze out from the wall. At this moment, his face was pale, and his breathing was a little dispirited. His clothes were also in a mess and were covered in dust. He looked as wretched as he could be.
