Chapter 1204: Two Superior Dragoons!
“What nonsense! We’re the Skywing Clan, fast is how we kill our enemies!” Xia Fei declared, swinging the Fiendish Blade Nirvana out.
Instantly the tables had turned!
Qiu Yang and his side had prepared to surround Xia Fei and Xia Gucheng, but now, it was over a hundred vicious wolves of the Skywing Clan that had Qiu Yang and his people surrounded. After the ma.s.sacre, every one of them was bloodied, and the killing intent they exuded was oppressive!
The Skywings were originally a clan that used weapons, but after Xia Fei forged them the Winged Roars, they had all converted to fists! A single punch of excessive violence would cause flesh and blood to splatter all over. Naturally their combat strength saw a huge increase, but so did the level of brutality they demonstrated!
“What are you people doing?” Feimu asked coldly. It was rare for Feimu, one of the more capable disciples of Qiu Xingbang, to remain so calm despite the situation.
“What are we doing?!” Xia Guanghai glared at him straight in the eye, heaved his huge hammer over his shoulder and barked, “You planned to bully my clan’s old man and our comrade with your advantage in numbers, so now, we’ll let you have a taste of what it’s like to be the ones with the disadvantage!”
“I’m from the Heavenly Might Spiritualist School, and this is my master’s son.” Feimu had no choice but to reveal his ident.i.ty. Going up against speedsters was simply too frightening, and against this group of speed maniacs lunging for him, anyone would feel their heart beat in trepidation. No matter how powerful Feimu was, he had no desire to go up against the Skywing Wolfpack.
Xia Fei smiled, “I know you’re people from Heavenly Might, but what does that matter? Do you think we ask where the people we kill are from?”
“That’s right! Wherever the Fiendish Blade points, G.o.ds and Demons alike will be slain! Who cares about who you are, yours truly won’t give a d.a.m.n about it!”
“Kill them! We won’t be letting anyone off who dares to try and kill our clan’s old man!”
…
The Skywing Wolfpack laughed uproariously as they shouted, showing an att.i.tude that clearly had no regard for Heavenly Might.
Honestly, when they had first arrived in the Alpha Universe, the Skywing Clan did indeed have some concerns. After all, this place was of a higher level, and the experts were as plentiful as clouds in the sky.
But today’s battle had bolstered the prestige of the Skywings!
Reality had proven that speed could defy the heavens! As long as everyone worked together, there were no enemies they could not beat!
Change their style because they were now in a different environment? That was not how the Skywings did things!
Their killing intent surged, and the wind howled!
At this point in time, all it would take was for Xia Gucheng or Xia Fei to give the command, and the Skywing Wolfpack would pounce on them, instantly tearing Qiu Yang and the others apart!
Suddenly, they hear an impatient voice call out from afar, “All of you, stop!”
Xia Fei turned toward where the voice had originated, and saw two middle-aged men. One was the one whom Xia Fei had seen on the screen before, the contact person for the Annihilation Universe stationed in the Alpha Universe, White Haze. The other person was someone Xia Fei did not recognize, but he was wearing a simple and understated robe, and looked like a middle-aged scholar.
Going by conventional thinking, for someone to dare shout for people to stay their hand, he or she must have quite a status, and their cultivation had to be high. Xia Fei should have decided to show the person some face, and waited for him to explain before he made his decision.
But Xia Fei was anything but conventional. His thinking was always quick, crazy, and irregular!
“KILL THEM!” Xia Fei pointed with one hand and expediently gave the order.
His tone made it apparent that he intended to finish off Qiu Yang and his people before those two arrived! He was not going to let them live!
The Skywing Wolfpack had no idea why Xia Fei made his decision, but the maniacs had depended on their unity and camaraderie to dominate the martial realm as they did, exerting their power through solidarity and cooperation!
Heeding the order, they immediately acted on it without a hint of hesitation!
*Roar*
*Whoosh*
The Wolfpack Formation surged forward!
The speed was far too shocking, looking like a ma.s.s of phantoms had suddenly rushed ahead, making for a dizzying sight!
Boom boom boom boom!
Punches rained down freely!
The four Spiritualists that had tagged along with Feimu on this operation were instantly turned into meat paste! Their bodies exploded as their visera flew in every direction! There was nothing but blood left when they were done!
The Wolfpack Formation appeared to have encircled their targets en ma.s.se, when really there were complex rules to their disorderliness!
Who was the main attacker, who would act as bait, how many to attack, the sequence in which they attacked… There was naturally no way for outsiders to know these details, but the Skywings’ insiders had everything arranged perfectly. The reason why the Skywing Wolfpack Formation was so formidable was not solely because of the speed these madmen possessed, but also because of the meticulous division of labor among those involved.
Because of how fast they were, all the outsiders could see was just a horde of shadows!
The Skywing Wolfpack instantly tore the four Spiritualists apart. They proceeded to target Qiu Yang and Feimu right after, but it was at that time when Xia Fei suddenly realized that there was a figure stuck out inside the Wolfpack Formation. He could tell at a glance from where he was positioned that this was not someone of the clan, but an outsider!
Shock overwhelmed his heart. Only an expert among experts could insert himself into the Wolfpack Formation so abruptly. That person was a huge threat!
WIthout sparing another moment for thought, Xia Fei immediately charged over with a punch ready! In such a tight timeframe, Xia Fei did not even have time to pull out a weapon. The Fiendish Blade Nirvana was right beside him, but Xia Fei could not even give a command to Radix.
Close combat!
Two fists collided crazily, and an extremely powerful shockwave blasted out!
It was only at this time when Xia Fei realized that this person was none other than that pale scholar who had accompanied White Haze. His right fist matched Xia Fei’s right fist, and his left hand had picked up Qiu Yang. He borrowed the force from Xia Fei’s punch and was flung away.
Xia Fei furrowed his brow and thought to himself, ‘What a powerful man. He actually managed to get himself in and out of the Wolfpack Formation unscathed!’
It was only at that moment that Xia Fei discovered his arm was trembling slightly. Even his bones had gone numb!
Xia Fei had used the full power of his Law of Primal Chaos in that punch! Even then, all he could do was barely eke out a draw with this opponent!
There was only one scenario where the Law of Primal Chaos would be weakened, and that was if the enemy Xia Fei was up against was far too high a level above him! It proved that the scholarly middle-aged man was a Peak Spiritualist!
This other party seemed to be stunned after receiving Xia Fei’s attack, as well. How old was Xia Fei? He had only barely held the upper hand when their fists clashed! Not only did Xia Fei not get knocked down, he did not even take a step back. That sort of strength was absolutely astounding!
Furthermore, the disruptive power of the Law of Primal Chaos was extraordinary. Though it did not manage to penetrate into his body, it left him feeling a throbbing pain that ran across his arm.
Everything had happened in the blink of an eye. Compared to Qiu Yang, who had just been saved by an expert, Feimu was not as lucky. Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng acted as a wall and exchanged a single forceful blow with Feimu. The others in the Wolfpack Formation capitalized on the opening to attack, blasting the level 8 Spiritualist apart, just like that!
“Brother Feimu!” Qiu Yang, now a safe distance away, could not believe his eyes. Feimu was a famed disciple of the Heavenly Might School, and he had died, just like that! It was too fast! “Father! You..”
Qiu Yang actually called the scholar his father?!
That meant that he was none other than the widely-renowned founder of the Heavenly Might Spiritualist School, the Peak Spiritualists, Qiu Xingbang!
Qiu Yang had just called him father, and a strange scene unfolded. Everyone saw Qiu Xingbang shove Qiu Yang behind him, a fierce expression on his face.
Qiu Yang was dumbfounded. He looked at his father, nonplussed, while White Haze was sighing from the sidelines, shaking his head repeatedly.
Xia Fei felt a headache coming on. White Haze was the contact person in the Alpha Universe for the Annihilation Universe, and he had actually appeared together with Qiu Xingbang? Xia Fei could not help but have an uneasy apprehension come over him.
…
Qiu Xingbang’s expression was cold. He stared at the Skywing Wolfpack in the distance, while the Fiendish Blade Nirvana seized the moment to exercise its draining capability on his now deceased disciple. Feimu would not even have the chance of being reborn, experiencing his final death!
He grew more annoyed the more he thought about it. What sort of status did Qiu Xingbang hold? Xia Fei had actually slain Feimu right before his eyes, one of the five internal disciples of the Heavenly Might Spiritualist School! There was no way Qiu Xingbang could bear such an affront!
Crucially, it was Xia Fei and the att.i.tude shown by the Skywing Clan right now that stayed his hand. All of them had readied their stances, looking like they were still dissatisfied after just the death of Feimu. Were these maniacs still intending to make a move against him?!
Qiu Xingbang could not remember the plast time he had been encircled by others, and to think someone would still be so bold as to attempt it in this day and age! Most that heard Qiu Xingbang’s name would be in a rush to duck and evade him, but the Skywings were actually looking to kill him? How ridiculous was that?!
An awkward yet dangerous atmosphere pervaded the area.
…
Did the Skywings dare to make a move against Qiu Xingbang?
Of course they did!
Aside from Xia Fei, no one else present knew who Qiu Xingbang was, and going by the personality of these madmen, even if they knew, they would still have the guts to recklessly throw their lives at him!
If the Skywings were to really make their move, then they were truly not showing any face to Qiu Xingbang. He would have no choice but to retaliate, and that meant the Heavenly Might Spiritualist School would have made mortal enemies of the Skywings, too!
It was at that moment White Haze suddenly came running over with a wide grin, chuckling loudly. “Brother Xia Fei, how have you been?”
Xia Guanghai frowned and asked Xia Fei, “You know this person?”
Xia Fei nodded, “I do. Listen to me. Don’t make any moves just yet.”
White Haze still had that shrewd businessman’s mouth on him, slowing down as he approached Xia Fei. Those few steps that he made running up were very profound, looking like he was gliding. Anyone could tell that White Haze was actually an expert, but it was just that he kept a very low-profile, and could withhold his true cultivation.
He used one hand to touch that comical pom- pom on his hat, and leaned into Xia Fei’s ear, “You’re quite the vicious one, aren’t you, killing Qiu Xingbang’s disciple right before his very eyes! But you better stop this right now. Let me tell you something, Qiu Xingbang is a Dragoon, just like you! It’s only that he’s a Holy Light Dragoon, while you’re a Devil Shadow Dragoon.”
Xia Fei was startled. No wonder White Haze had appeared together with Qiu Xingbang. It turned out he was a Dragoon as well!
With that said, White Haze turned around and flashed a wide grin toward Qiu Xingbang, loudly addressing him, “Sectmaster Qiu, don’t you think it’s about time we head back?!”
…
Qiu Xingbang glared at Xia Fei ferociously, then swept a cold gaze across the Skywing Woflpack before saying, “Very good, Xia Fei!”
With that, Qiu Xingbang turned away with a stern face, grabbing Qiu Yang and departing.
Qiu Yang was flabbergasted. His domineering father had actually compromised in front of a n.o.body like Xia Fei?!
“Father! Kill him! KILL HIM!” Qiu Yang screeched loudly.
*Smack*
Qiu Yang earned himself a painful slap across his cheek the moment those words left his lips.
“You incompetent trash, shut your mouth!” Qiu Xingbang growled with a darkened expression. He was obviously harboring a belly full of fire and had no way of venting it, and so it all went on his own son.
…
White Haze watched Qiu Xingbang leave, still furious deep down. He turned and stuck out his tongue at Xia Fei, “Looking over your information, I know that you’re someone who is fond of getting into trouble. But never would I have imagined you’d be so much of a handful! Looks like I won’t be having any peaceful days ahead with you around.”
There was a momentary pause before White Haze patted Xia Fei on his shoulder and sighed, “I’ll be taking my leave here, so you’re on your own. Contact me if there’s anything else, but let me ask you this before I leave: Had I not stepped in, would you really have contemplated killing Qiu Xingbang just now?”
“Of course,” Xia Fei immediately replied without a moment of hesitation.
…
*Smack*
*Smack*
On the journey home, Qiu Xingbang’s two slaps across Qiu Yang’s face stunned the latter.
“You incompetent tras.h.!.+ From today onward, you’re going to be sealed in seclusion! You’re not allowed to take even one step off Heavenly Might!” Qiu Xingbang exploded in rage.
“Why?! XIa Fei is just a n.o.body! Why didn’t you just kill him?! Instead, you had me beaten up! It’s not fair!” Qiu Yang wailed as he clutched his now-swollen cheeks.
Qiu Xingbang let out a mirthless laugh, “Xia Fei is a n.o.body? You better listen well! You’re not allowed to harbor any ideas about getting back at Xia Fei for the rest of your life! He’s a Dragoon like me! You’re dead meat if you do anything to him!”
