Krak krakk kraak
Xiao Shan heard a strange sound in his sleep. He who was exhausted after training all day didn't care about anything out there as long as it didn't put him in danger.
A cultivator was used to sleeping while awake including Xiao Shan who had just been taught his way by the Forest Guard Spirit.
"...the user of the dark element below the horizon level is nothing but trash. You are not worthy to use this power. "
Xiao Shan woke up violently. The voice of the person in his dream was similar to his father's. "Why should father's voice...? I haven't seen him in a long time. Why should she...? "
Xiao Shan tried to suggest to himself to go back to sleep.
And he succeeded.
***
In the palace the emperor was punishing the guards who were not very good at guarding his room. In the muddy basement and the smell of the emperor would not even touch him. The emperor ordered the executioner to torture 2 guards who had heard a noise in the emperor's room.
With their mouths full of wounds, the guards repeated the same apology.
"Sorry is not enough! You have to pay for this carelessness each with one eye, one ear, one nasal cavity, one hand, one leg, and one kidney! "
That cruel punishment was decided by the emperor after being affected by An Yanrou's remark. The fox woman used tears and was more crazy to do Self-punishing to attract the empathy of the emperor. Remembering that night the emperor was hanging out with him.
Thanks to the Self-punishing concubine An Yanrou, the emperor became even more angry with the two guards, thus giving the punishment many times over.
Concubine An Yanrou enjoyed the torture of the two men. His goal was none other than to vent his frustration at not being able to meet Xiao Shan and not being able to punish commander Zhao Liu. He also could not punish the Qin family who had once blocked the royal forces from bringing Xiao Shan.
After learning that his magic well was used by someone, the emperor ordered one of his 3 low sky cultivators, to track down the location the perpetrators were going to.
The name of this cultivator Luo Shinu. He is claimed to be the strongest of the 3 low-sky cultivators guarding the kingdom, with the honorable nickname Blue Fire Sword.
"Make sure you bring it before the day changes. If you hadn't come back then I would have announced your death and revoked all your titles and wealth. " The emperor's orders mixed with a real threat.
Luo Shinu bowed then made an oath. "I promise to bring people who have been presumptuous to use sacred heirlooms without a noble permit. "
Luo Shinu was allowed to enter the holy well by carrying out a mission. He came to the cold, snowy northern land.
Emperor Wei trusted Luo Shinu's abilities. Because he was the first person who could track the destination of the magic well.
"(Which north is this?)"
Luo Shinu checked the position of the sun. The sun was directly above his head which meant he was in the northeast of the snowy land.
While looking up at the sky Luo Shinu also saw something strange. The sighting of flying fish amounted to 7 tails. Such a phenomenon has never happened before.
Nearby Luo Shinu discovered the rest of the human aura remnant. Fearing that someone needed help on the dead land, Luo Shinu followed in the footsteps of the aura, running at high speed.
For a moment he forgot his job of looking for an intruder.
The trace aura ended in the body of a boy who had an extremely powerful aura. With full courtesy Luo Shinu greeted Xiao Shan.
"Excuse me sir, do you need any help? "
Xiao Shan turned to the foreign man behind him. They stared at each other for a few seconds until Xiao Shan realized who it was after glancing at his collar.
"He's a palace soldier?! "
Xiao Shan had yet to master the useful skills that Guan Yu had taught him, so he had trouble knowing the level of that warrior.
"It seems you don't need any help sir. But what are you doing on this dead land that's so cold? "
Xiao Shan chose the answer carefully until the most reasonable and undeniable answer was chosen.
"My wife and I eloped and hid here. " , "Don't worry, we're happy despite living on the run. " plus.
Luo Shinu was silent. He then said to Xiao Shan. "The Luo family has a secret time-eye style. With that style we can see the events in the past.
Luo Shinu pulled out her sword slowly then unsheathed it to Xiao Shan.
"I don't know what your motive and purpose is to provoke the emperor's anger. What's clear is that you have to take responsibility by prostrating yourself at his feet. "
Xiao Shan laughed hearing that.
"If I turn myself in, what will happen next is the emperor ruling his executioner chopping my body off my toes. " Sahut Xiao Shan expressed his thoughts.
Luo Shinu swung her sword in a perfect circle. It was an extremely sharp and destructive raw qi slash.
"(He's slow.)"
"(Grandfather said I can now defend against the Horizon cultivator for a few minutes. Let's try.)"
Xiao Shan fired a fireball 8 times at Luo Shinu. But all of his fireballs were held back by a sword covered in blue flames.
"Wait, can't you be the Blue Fire Sword?! "
Luo Shinu carved out an arrogant smile then amplified the size of his sword many times over.
Luo Shinu took out a stance.
Low Sky Level, Frostbite.
Luo Shinu swung her great sword at Xiao Shan.
With all his might Xiao Shan resisted that slash attack.
Luo Shinu's sword hit the ground, pushing Xiao Shan through the hard ground. Simultaneously there was a rumbling sound from the sky.
The flying fish that was none other than the dugong monster Xiao Shan called out to attack Luo Shinu fiercely.
But instead of raising his sword that stuck on the ground, Luo Shinu actually made a second sword with an iron elemental stance, then prepared to pull out the same stance.
Xiao Shan managed to protect his body from the sword. In the last second Xiao Shan managed to solidify the earth element into an iron element that was even stronger than ordinary metal.
Because he could not get out of the crack of the land, Xiao Shan asked for his ego Alter's help.
"What do you want from me? "
"Don't be cynical. The palace army is after us. I think he's at the early Horizon level. " She Xiao Shan.
"So the palace troops are coming! Hahaha.I can't wait to see you tortured to death. "
"Stop slashing, I need your fire control power to melt the soil around us. "
"Lazy. "
Alter Ego refused to help until he felt himself the pressure of a powerful aura from up there. Alter Ego was afraid if the executioner's torment had an effect on him.
"Akh..! All righty! But you have to win! "
Alter Ego touched the fire star while sitting on top of the qi pond. Xiao Shan was able to increase fire control by up to 100%.
"Now your lousy presentation number has gone up to 100. Don't embarrass Xiao Shan! " (Alter Ego)
As long as Xiao Shan spoke to Alter Ego Luo Shinu took care of the dugong monsters. It didn't matter to Luo Shinu that one target died. Because there are still 3 more people that can be handed over to the emperor.
Just as Luo Shinu was about to search again the ground he was treading melted.
A human torch came out of the ground.
"You must be crazy. I have shown that I am a master of fire. But you even challenged fighting with fire. " Said Luo Shinu.
Xiao Shan's body was completely covered in flames. Luo Shinu spoke again. "I have to praise you, that was a very clever answer. Most people would think you are crazy. "
"Then you retaliate, love drives anyone crazy. " Luo Shinu was still blabbering.
The fed-up Xiao Shan instantly melted the ice and made a huge fire circle here. His goal was to disturb Luo Shinu's focus and vision.
"I'm sorry I talk so much. Give up before my patience runs out! "
Xiao Shan responded to the threat by taking out a 2-headed dragon-shaped firecracker in his hand. The plan was that Xiao Shan would bombard the place in order to have a chance to escape.
