Chapter 388: Killing Bai Dong
Shock, absolute shock. Who would have thought that such a change would actually happen? As strong as Bai Dong, he had actually lost to Ye Xiao, a youngster at the Early Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm.
Was it because Bai Dong was too weak? Of course not. Among these people, Bai Dong"s strength was above average. It could only be said that Ye Xiao was too powerful.
"Phew…"
Mu Family"s people took a deep breath as they finally understood Ye Xiao"s power. A look of shock flashed across Blue Skirt Lady"s pretty face. Then, she turned to Mu Cheng at the side and said, "This Ye Xiao is indeed very strong."
"Very strong." Feng Shang and the other geniuses from the top forces of the Golden Kingdom all had shocked expressions on their faces. They never expected that Ye Xiao would actually be able to win, and would win with showcasing such a a ma.s.sive difference in strength.
Although Bai Dong had received some injuries before coming to the Golden Hall and his energy consumption was serious, he still was not someone an Early Stage Immortal Lord Realm martial artist could contend against.
Now, even they had no choice but to pay attention to this Ye Xiao. Especially since he had yet to fully show his strength. They were not a fool. They had already seen that in the previous attack, Ye Xiao only used the power of lightning and his Spear Intent to defeat Bai Dong. He did not use any martial arts skills in his previous attack.
How could have they know, what Ye Xiao used was not the ordinary power of lightning but the Heavenly Thunder. With Heavenly thunder, there was simply no need for him to use any sort of martial arts skill.
Miss Yi"s eyes also flashed with a strange light. She was quite surprised by Ye Xiao"s battle prowess.
Amongst everyone, the calmest person was Mu Cheng. Even Laohu Qiong had died in his hands, so of course, Bai Dong"s defeat did not surprise him too much.
"From the looks of it, he did indeed kill Laohu Qiong." Dongfang Shang took a deep breath and mumbled, and admired Feng Wuji"s eyes again.
"Swoosh."
A light sound was heard. Ye Xiao turned into a ray of light and rushed towards Bai Dong, who was standing on his spot like an idiot while looking at the shattered pieces of his black spear.
"Master Fu Chen, please save me!"
Bai Dong looked at Ye Xiao who was rushing over and revealed a terrified expression. The current him was heavily injured and had no power to resist. He could only ask Snow Cold Palace"s group for help.
When Fu Chen heard Bai Dong calling for help, he immediately wanted to step forward and interrupt Ye Xiao but he was stopped by Meng Xuanran.
"Meng Xuanran, what are you doing?" Fu Chen asked somewhat angrily.
"It is useless even if you attack. First, let"s not talk about whether you are a match for this Ye Xiao or not. As long as you make a move, Dongfang Shang and Feng Shang would not just stand by and do nothing. At that time, even our Snow Cold Palace will be affected. For the sake of a man from a subsidiary power, offending Feng Family is not worth it." Meng Xuanran said coldly.
Just now when Fu Chen released his imposing manner, Meng Xuanran noticed Feng Shang casting his gaze over. Although he had never fought against Feng Shang before, he had naturally heard of his name before. His talent was extremely outstanding. Even he was not confident that he could defeat her. At most, it would just be a draw. Furthermore, with Dongfang Shang who was also at the Late Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm, his Snow Cold Palace will definitely be defeated if the fight were to happen.
Fu Chen also noticed this situation and his expression changed.
"No one will come to save you, old thing. Now, go to h.e.l.l." Ye Xiao arrived in front of Bai Dong. With a cold smile on his face, he stabbed the spear in his hand at Bai Dong"s Chest.
"Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, My Bai Family will not let you off." Bai Dong roared in frustration with red eyes.
"You can die first." Ye Xiao sneered and stabbed his spear in Bai Dong"s chest, killing him on the spot.
"He died just like that?"
When the onlookers saw this, their hearts skipped a beat and their eyes were filled with disbelief. Right now, they were still in a bit of a daze. An expert of the Late Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm had died in such a miserable manner right in front of them.
"Ruthless." Feng Shang grinned and looked at Ye Xiao.
"Yes."
Dongfang Shang, who was at the side, also nodded his head. Although Ye Xiao was very young, his character was not bad. Even some adults might not be stronger than him.
"Brat, you are really vicious." Fu Chen"s eyes were ice-cold as he stared at Ye Xiao.
Bai Dong was a member of the Bai Family. Which one of the people present didn"t know that the Bai Family was a subsidiary power of the Snow Cold Palace, yet Ye Xiao had actually killed him without any scruples. Not to mention him, even Meng Xuanran"s body emitted a cold killing intent.
Ye Xiao"s actions were enough to prove that he did not put their Snow Cold Palace in his eyes at all.
Ye Xiao naturally knew about the relationship between Snow Cold Palace and the Bai Family. The reason why Dragon Immortal Sect allowed the Bai Family to freely grow within its own land of jurisdiction was probably because they didn"t want to wage war against the Snow Cold Palace for the time being.
Although the Dragon Immortal Sect was very strong and was a powerful sect that had been around for thousands of years, right now, it was declining rapidly and could not afford to offend another sect of the same level such as the Snow Cold Palace. Under such circ.u.mstances, the Dragon Immortal Sect could only choose to stay silent.
"Ruthless? If the one who died today was me, would you think that Bai Dong would be as ruthless as I am?" Ye Xiao smiled mockingly and said.
"You…" Fu Chen"s face stiffened. Indeed, if Ye Xiao would have died instead of Bai Dong, he would only think that the one who died was a kid of no importance. It didn"t matter at all.
At that time, no one noticed that when Bai Dong died, the blood that flowed out from his body gradually flowed to the grey bones that were sitting cross-legged in the middle of the palace. When the fresh blood came in contact with the skeleton, it was slowly absorbed into the marrow. As the fresh blood seeped in, the gray colour on the skeleton slowly faded away. It was replaced by a dark red and a weak aura began to undulate outwards.
"Hmm?"
Ye Xiao and Miss Yi, who was in the sky, instantly noticed this situation. Ye Xiao noticed because of his Divine Sense, as for Miss Yi, she noticed because of her blessing yet curse-like senses. The two of them looked at the skeleton and their pupils could not help but constrict.
Ye Xiao"s eyes were wide open as a hint of astonishment flashed across his face. A bad feeling rose in his heart, his figure quickly flashed and then he shouted towards Dongfang Shang and the others: "Hurry up and exit the golden hall."
At the same time, Miss Yi, who was in the air, was not slow either. She controlled her sword and in the blink of an eye, rushed out of the golden hall gate.
"Huh?"
This strange action of Ye Xiao caused Dongfang Shang and the others to be confused. However, Dongfang Shang always trusted Ye Xiao"s words and this fellow always proved to be very accurate. Although he was puzzled about the purpose of this action, he still immediately displayed his body and hurried to follow.
"Big Brother Feng Shang, what should we do?" A youth from the Feng Family asked.
"We need to retreat as well."
Without any hesitation, Feng Shang turned around and followed behind Ye Xiao and Dongfang Shang leaving the golden hall. The Feng Family youth wanted to say something, but seeing Feng Shang quickly leaving, he did not say anything else and followed closely behind.
As for the Long family, Mo family, and Tang family, they hesitated for a moment and didn"t leave. After all, this was the main hall and they were sure to have a lot of treasures. But they had to retreat for a distance. As long as there was something wrong, they would quickly leave.
Mu Cheng did not have any hesitation. When Ye Xiao spoke, he brought along Mu Family a group of people and rushed out of the golden hall.
"What is going on with these guys?" Everyone looked at the group of people who had suddenly left with their mouths agape.
