Chapter 34 - Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal"Hur Hur, what big words you have there!" The moment Xiang Jinglei heard Xiang Yun mention that the item he took out was even more valuable than a Heavenly Thunder Crystal, his sword-like eyebrows shot up as he pointed towards Xiang Yun.
"Then show it to me, if it really is precious then it"s fine, but if you dare to take out some disgraceful things then I"ll teach you a lesson in place of my Royal Father today!"Just as Xiang Jinghong was about to clear this matter up, Xiang Yun, who was standing by the side, was even more direct. He bent down and picked up the wooden box that contained the "caring medicine" picture book from the Spring Palace, placing it heavily on the table beside him, letting out a dull thud!
"Alright, I"ll open it for you. I"ll show you what a treasure really is!"As Xiang Yun spoke, he opened the wooden box. By the side, it was already too late for Xiang Jinghong to stop him!
"Clang!" "Bang! "a loud sound was heard as the lid of the wooden chest hit the back of the chest."It"s over." Xiang Jinghong sighed sorrowfully in his heart. He was just about to cover his eyes and not look at the contents of Xiang Yun"s wooden chest!
"En!"
However, the next moment, Xiang Jinghong felt his entire body shudder, and the look in his eyes instantly changed!As a fire attribute cultivation technique pract.i.tioner, Xiang Jinghong suddenly felt a surge of fire element suddenly appear within the room, instantly heating up the air in the room. As for the center of this surge of fire element, it seemed to be in the direction Xiang Yun was in.
In the next instant, a fiery red light flashed in the room, and like a raging flame, Ding Jinghong instantly appeared in front of the wooden chest. The latter reached out like lightning and grabbed something out of the wooden chest!
In the next moment, a piece of crystal the size of a baby"s torso appeared in Xiang Jinghong"s hand. It was entirely scarlet like fire, and it was emitting specks of crimson light.
With the crimson red crystal exposed to the air, the temperature of the entire room instantly rose by more than ten degrees, as if a huge furnace had been placed inside the room!
Seeing the fire crystal in his hand, Xiang Jinghong was stunned for a good long while before he finally exclaimed, "This is a fire cloud crystal!"
"Crimson Fire Cloud Crystal!" These words came out of Xiang Jinghong"s mouth as the nearby Xiang Jinglei was similarly shocked!
"Second brother, is this really a Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal?" Xiang Jinglei was obviously in disbelief."Big Brother, I have been looking forward to this for a long time. Back then, I had the luck to come in close contact with it at the Imperial City Dragon City Auction. A fist-sized Crimson Fire Cloud Crystal was taken by an unknown rogue cultivator."
"I never thought that I would see this thing again. It is definitely a Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal, and its aura is exactly the same as the Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal from before. Otherwise, there is no way it could have such a strong fire element aura!"
"It really is a Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal!" He knew the value of a Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was priceless. Even several cities would not be able to exchange for a single Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal of this size, and the value of the latter was only higher than a Heavenly Thunder Crystal!
"Hehe, second brother, are you satisfied with the present I gave you?" Xiang Yun, who was standing to the side, looked at his second brother"s glowing eyes, who was unwilling to let go of him, and could not help but ask with a smile.
"Satisfied, very satisfied!" Xiang Jinghong only used five words to express the excitement and surprise in his heart!
Xiang Lianglei and Xiang Jinghong are both martial arts geniuses, born with forty spiritual veins. Xiang Lianglei is born with a thunder-attribute cultivation technique, while Xiang Jinghong is born with fire-attribute cultivation techniques.
Xiang Jinghong"s Heavenly Thunder Crystal was a type of crystal formed from the nurturing of lightning. Naturally, it was extremely precious, but it was still inferior to the Scarlet Cloud Crystal that Xiang Yun had given to Xiang Jinghong!
This was because the Crimson Fire Cloud Crystal that the latter gave him was naturally nurtured inside the giant volcano, and after absorbing the essence of earth fire, the condensed crystal contained a surging fire attribute ability. It was the material that all fire attributed martial pract.i.tioners yearned for in their dreams to make their own weapons.
Xiang Jinghong"s eyes blazed as he looked at the Crimson Fire Cloud Crystal in his hand and said, "If I can use this Crimson Fire Cloud Crystal to make a long saber, it"ll be able to increase my strength by at least two and a half levels. At that time, even if it"s an ordinary profound cloud master, even if I can"t defeat them, I"ll still have the strength to do so!""Ha ha!" When he thought of the carefree feeling of having his strength rise greatly, Xiang Jinghong could not help but raise his head and laugh out loud. His voice was low and deep as it was released from his tall body, soaring into the sky like raging flames!
At this time, if it was the smug Xiang Lei, then he would have revealed an envious expression. Although the Heavenly Thunder Crystal in his hand could increase his cultivation a lot, it was still much weaker than the Crimson Fire Cloud Crystal that Xiang Jinghong had.
Xiang Jinghong laughed complacently for a while, before suddenly thinking of a problem. He hurriedly looked at the smiling Xiang Yun at the side and said, "Good boy, you were so engrossed in happiness that you almost forgot to ask, where did you get such a good thing like the Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal from!? This item is incomparably precious and priceless. You actually managed to get it? "
At this moment, Xiang Jinglei also cast a curious gaze over. He was also surprised that this useless little brother of his was actually able to take out such an extraordinary treasure. It was actually even more precious than his own Skythunder Cloud Crystal.
Xiang Yun"s face revealed an awkward expression.
"Brat, you didn"t trick me into doing this right? If it"s like this, then I won"t accept it." Seeing the strange expression on Xiang Yun"s face, Xiang Jinghong said seriously.
Xiang Yun hurriedly shook his head, "Second brother, what kind of person do you think I am? Even if I were to fail, as a crown prince, I wouldn"t do all those deceptive things."Xiang Jinghong"s gaze turned as he heard this, thinking, "I"m afraid that the other n.o.bles of the other palaces wouldn"t do such a thing. You brat, it"s really hard to say."
"Since it wasn"t swindled, could it be that you used money to buy it?" Xiang Jinghong was obviously trying to get to the bottom of this. Otherwise, he would not feel at ease even if he used this item.
"Eh, second brother, how did you know I bought it with money?" Xiang Yun looked at Xiang Jinghong in shock!
"What? You really bought it with money?" Xiang Jinghong"s eyes widened in shock as he asked in disbelief."Of course!" Xiang Yun repeatedly nodded, saying with certainty.
"Humph! Nonsense!" A treasure like the Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal was not something that ordinary money could buy. Second Brother, this boy probably used some shady means to get the Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal. You actually dare to say that you bought it with money, you really think we"re idiots?! "
When Xiang Jinglei heard Xiang Yun say that these Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystals had been bought with money, he immediately revealed a look of disdain, as if he were looking at an idiot.
"Big brother, that"s impossible. Although third brother has a mischievous temperament, he would absolutely not kill someone for their goods!" Xiang Jinghong was extremely familiar with his third brother. Although Xiang Yun was idle and addicted to women, he definitely would not commit such a heinous act like killing someone for their goods!
"Humph, this kid has always been full of evil tricks and his brain never used it on the right path. Who knows if he will do something dishonorable this time. Second brother, you better not believe this kid"s lies."To the side, Xiang Yun"s eyes flashed with a cold light when he heard Xiang Jinglei say that he had killed someone and stolen their goods. A surge of fury was on his mind; to this big brother of his, perhaps the young crown prince had been afraid of him like a flood and fierce beasts.
Xiang Yun was already feeling rather displeased with Xiang Lei"s repeated mockery and reprimands. He had not expected that this fellow would actually dare to accuse him of wrongly handing out such a great treasure, saying that he had killed someone for their goods and had ruined their family"s reputation. This was too much!
As the saying went, "Uncle can endure it, but aunt can"t." Xiang Yun immediately leapt up from his chair, pointing at Xiang Jinglei as he scolded him.
"Xiang Jinglei, shut up!" "How did I get this Crimson Fire Cloud Crystal? Which eye of yours saw it? Just what right do you have to say that I killed someone for their treasure? Their origin is unknown."
"Could it be that I"m in a good mood, so I just need to buy a ap.r.o.n and a silk scarf for that maid and send someone to report to you, "Reporting to Big Brother, I bought a ap.r.o.n for my maid today." Which street, which shop, which shelf did you buy it from? "" Aren"t you being a little too magnanimous? Do you really think you are my old man? My old man isn"t dead yet, there"s no need for you to pretend to be a big tail wolf in front of me! ""Boom!"
This string of words from Xiang Yun was like a series of artillery sh.e.l.ls, each word was like a bullet. Each word resounded through the room, causing the two brothers opposing him to be stunned, they were all stunned on the spot!
He would never have thought that this Third Brother of his, who had always been timid and cowardly, who had always avoided him three times, would actually have this sort of temper at this very moment. He was actually pointing at his own nose and swearing at him at the top of his lungs!
In the next moment!
"Chi chi chi!"
Along with a series of dense sounds of electric currents surging about, the body of Xiang Jinglei, who had been standing still on the spot, suddenly emitted a dense blue electric current. It was like a dense electric current network.
The pupils of the latter pair of eyes instantly transformed into a resplendent silver color. Its entire being was just like the incarnation of the Thunder G.o.d that Xiang Yun had seen in many American movies in his previous life. It was incomparably tyrannical!
"Boom!"
At the same time as the lightning on Xiang Jinghong"s body enveloped his body, a surge of powerful energy gushed out in all directions, sending the chair in Xiang Jinghong"s room flying like a piece of paper."Brat, you"re courting death!" Xiang Jinglei"s silver eyes were like those of a furious G.o.d of lightning as he glared fiercely at Xiang Yun. His body transformed into a streak of light as he charged towards Xiang Yun, a ma.s.sive fist carrying a silver arc of lightning as it smashed towards Xiang Yun"s chest!
"Holy sh * t!" Xiang Yun cried out in his heart, not even having time to react before he thought in his heart, "It"s over, it"s over! This fellow got so agitated, if I had known earlier, I wouldn"t have provoked him. I"ve already said that gentlemen don"t make a move, but this fellow is such a boorish fellow!"Seeing Xiang Lei about to charge in front of Xiang Yun in an instant, Xiang Yun had thought that he would be unavoidably beaten up. Suddenly, a fiery red light flashed in front of him, followed by a tall figure bathed in scarlet flames.
The figure shrouded in flames also threw a punch in the direction of Xiang Jinglei"s fist!
"Bam!"
With a dull thud, Xiang Yun felt a surge of energy smash into his chest. Even with his cultivation base as a martial pract.i.tioner, he felt his body shudder as he was sent flying backwards. He rolled on the ground a few times before finally stopping!
As for the two tall men who were like Thunder G.o.d and Fire G.o.d, after their clash, they both retreated. Xiang Jinglei took a step back while Xiang Jinghong took two!"Big Brother
Do you really want third brother"s life? " A hint of undisguised anger appeared in Xiang Jinghong"s eyes. He felt that his eldest brother had acted too heavily just now and was already threatening his third brother"s life. Hence, his tone had become a little stiff.
Looking at his second brother, who was almost as tall as him and had an unfriendly expression on his face, Xiang Jinglei was secretly shocked. This little brother of his had just entered the peak of the Huang Yun Realm, yet he was able to withstand the attack of Yun Li"s thunder attribute attack which could be called the strongest attack amongst his peers.Immediately, Xiang Jinglei shot a glance at Xiang Yun who was rolling behind Xiang Jinghong, snorting coldly in disdain, "Third brother, this good-for-nothing, actually dares to be rude to me. Can"t I, the elder brother, personally teach him a lesson?"
"Humph!" You still need to get to the bottom of this, right? " Xiang Jinghong"s att.i.tude was still as unyielding as before, as he unleashed his immense aura to confront his big brother, Xiang Jinglei!Third brother, you must be honest, you actually obtained this Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal, if you really did it using some disgraceful method, then second brother will not blame you, after all, you did it for my sake, so you will bear all the consequences, you just need to return this Scarlet Fire Cloud Crystal to its original owner!
Xiang Jinghong turned to look at Xiang Yun and sent him a look of relief. It was obvious that he was worried that Xiang Yun would be overpowered by Xiang Jinglei"s aura!
