HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
145 - Xiling Canyon

"What's really going on in there?!" Elder Zhang Shan was already uneasy when he heard the sound coming from within the jade screen. While on the other hand, some elders called out to the disciple but there was no answer anymore.


Xie Yanran, the figure of a daughter and an elder of the Cloud Sea Sect began to open his voice. "The light's mortal is changing color, is that a natural thing?"


Elder Wang Jing Li, the figure of a muscular man and is Shizun from Yan Tianhen joined the voice. He looked at Elder Wang Haoran and asked, "What are you guys planning to do exactly?! What kind of conference are you holding?!"


Elder Qin Yun of the Heaven Flower Sect also looked at the Great Elder of the Sacred Star Tower, "Elder Wang Haoran. You have prepared this event and there should be no problems. You and Elder Chen ..... I hope there's no hidden intention of this happening,"


"Please calm down, this is not the time to blame each other." Elder Jiao Feng was trying to break the tension between the elders. It was just that a commotion had also occurred among the elders from the small and medium-sized sects.


The main organizer of all the necessities needed in this Eternal Alliance Conference was the Thousand Swords Palace with the Holy Star Tower. While the other sects asked some of their disciples to help become supervisors and maintain order of this event.


Grand Elder Huan Gui Fei of the Heaven Flower Sect said, "Didn't everything related to this conference have gone through close scrutiny. So how can this kind of thing happen?"


"Can't you bring out the disciples that are inside Xiling Canyon?" Elder Qin Yun asked the Great Elder of the Thousand Sword Palace.


Elder Chen Duan Shan called one of his disciples to approach and the young man's answer made the elders' feelings even more uncomfortable.


"Sorry, Elder. The Light Portal could not take out the participants. Anyone who is in there cannot go out, instead people who are outside can go in. We've checked it out and here's what I can say,"


Elder Wang Jing Li stepped up and then snapped, "What do you mean?! Those inside the portal of light can't come back here while those outside can enter? Don't joke around and force open the portal!"


"Chairman, I'm sorry. Brother Su who was watching inside Xiling Canyon told about the strange happenings with the Demonic Beasts. Not to mention.." The disciple gulped and said, "The participants somehow attacked each other with the intention of killing each other. It was afraid that if the light portal were to be opened forcibly, it would be broken and would completely trap everything."


The student's face turned pale as he continued to speak. "If we can even get out, we are worried that they will attack the students who are here. Most likely, Demonic .... Demonic Beasts inside the canyon will come out."


Hearing that statement was like a violent clash for the elders. Elder Wang Jing Li held his breath and seemed as if he could no longer say anything.


"We have to do something," Xie Yanran said in a cold-sounding voice. "I feel that today's incident has the intervention of someone who intends to kill the best generations of the Cloud Sea Sect."


"Chairman Xie, what do you mean?" Elder Shen Shilin looked at the girl beside him, "You want to say that this is our Sacred Star Tower and the Thousand Sword Palace's strategy to eliminate the disciple who became the pillar of your sect?"


"Hmph," Xie Yanran snorted, "I didn't say that. But Elder Shen himself said so, so what can I do."


"You-"


"That's it..." Elder Meng Hao Niang interjected as the situation between Shen Shilin and Xie Yanran nearly heated up.


Elder Meng Hao Niang was still with his drunk face. He said, "If you keep arguing like this .... The disciples inside there might have already lost their lives."


Xiao Shuxiang blinked and said. "Chairman Meng, can't you put your pumpkin pitcher first? Everyone's freaking out and you're still drinking, what good is that?"


"Small Reliability, shhh. You don't care about me, okay?"


"Hmph," Xiao Shuxiang shook his head slowly.


Elder Chen Duan Shan exhaled and then said, "I will enter the Xiling Canyon and see what is really going on inside there. The main priority at the moment is to help the participants and find a way to get them out of the canyon safely. I'll thank you if the elders are willing to come with me,"


"No need to say that, I'll go too." Elder Wang Haoran made a firm voice. He felt responsible for the conditions that befell the conference participants.


"I'm also coming, too" Elder Huan Gui Fei opened his voice. "I can't stay silent to see the conditions that are endangering my students,"


The other elders also nodded in agreement, they obviously could not keep quiet. They had to save the disciples trapped in Xiling Canyon. This can be delayed again.


Ling Qing Zhu also nodded slowly, he was the representative of Elder Liu Lang of the Cloud Sea Sect and he also had the responsibility to worry about the disciple he brought. Liu Lang's student was none other than Liu Wei Lin.


"Wait," Xiao Shuxiang grabbed Ling Qing Zhu's hand and made the girl look at him.


"Shuxiang?" Ling Qing Zhu made a calm voice.


"Shuxiangis...."


"That's right," Elder Chu Sheng Nan who was a red-clothed woman with a veil covering her face started to make a sound. He was the Elder of Xiyue Peak Mountain and was Shizun miss Yun Qiao Yue.


Elder Chu Sheng Nan said calmly, "It is not good that all the elders from the four big sects leave. Someone has to stay and watch this place. What do you think, Elder Chen?"


"Mn, that's right." Elder Chen Duan Shan nodded slowly, "Great Elder Huan Gui Fei, Great Elder Wang Haoran, Elder Wang Jing Li, Elder Chu Sheng Nan, Elder Chu, Elder Meng Hao Niang and Elder Xie Yanran will come with me. While the other elders will remain here, what do you think?"


"I object..Elder Meng must not come," Xiao Shuxiang refused and this made the elders shocked. Suddenly, they looked at the young man.


"Hey, Little Rascal." Elder Meng Hao Niang looked at Xiao Shuxiang, "Why do you seem so hostile to me, huh? What's the matter with you?"


"I'm not," Xiao Shuxiang appeared so innocent as to say, "I'm not hostile towards Elder Meng at all. I really like you, so you can't leave. You should listen to me this time, Elder."


Ling Qing Zhu, "..............."


"I don't want to be liked by a smelly kid like you, don't want to." Elder Meng Hao Niang again chugged the wine in his lab jug. He made Elder Chen Duan Shan feel a little regret for mentioning this woman's name.


"Chairman Meng, to be honest I really like you. But today's incident made me feel like I didn't want you to leave this place." Xiao Shuxiang was so serious about saying it.


The charming young man continued, "There is a possibility that the people behind this are all waiting for the elders from the great sect to enter the light portal. That person could have targeted the disciples in this place and your alchemist ability Elder Meng was more needed here. Besides, in Xiling Canyon there is still Mo Huai and I think there are quite a number of disciples who have alchemist abilities."


Xiao Shuxiang exhaled, "This place is far more people and only Elder Meng can handle if things get serious. This goes for you too, White Cat. Obviously you can't come,"


Elder Meng Hao Niang was just about to protest when Xiao Shuxiang started to take the elders away and without warning - those charming figures instantly shot into the portal of light.


Ling Qing Zhu gasped when his Guardian Master left just like that, especially now that Elder Chen Duan Shan agreed with Xiao Shuxiang's remark and then asked most of the elders to stay.


Elder Chen Duan Shan then began to dart into the light portal, the other five elders followed from behind and they arrived at Xiling Canyon with different locations.


Xiao Shuxiang arrived at a quite dense forest and stepped gently on a branch of trees. The sound of the clash of weapons rang out and seemed to be a welcome to his presence.


".......... What the fuck?" Xiao Shuxiang was stunned when he saw that there were some cultivators fighting fiercely with each other and full of killing lust. He blinked as he felt that fighting between fellow participants was an offense.


!!


Xiao Shuxiang gasped as two cultivators fell and lost their lives. It's just that compared moving to breaking up that fierce fight-he just snorted and then crouched down.


Xiao Shuxiang smiled, "Huh. Why does this feel so interesting to see? They're really killing each other,"


The sparkle in Xiao Shuxiang's eyes was so clear, moreover, he seemed to show interest in something that clearly should not be left alone.


Cultivators from the various sects were fighting because seeing the opponent they were facing was a Demonic Beast, not a human. They seemed to be affected in the illusion created by Yi Shisi until those cultivators unhesitatingly attacked each other.


"Unbelievable, it should have been a match like this..." Xiao Shuxiang chuckled in admiration, "Looking at them makes my blood boil. I think I want to join,"


The smile never faded on Xiao Shuxiang's face, even the young man's breathing grew heavier as the stronger the thump in his chest grew.


"I .... Want to do it too. It felt really unbearable," Xiao Shuxiang's breath hunted down. His right hand clawed the tree trunk until it was injured and spat out fresh blood. He had been holding back for too long and was eager to do something fun.


In Xiao Shuxiang's vision, the organs in the cultivators were thrashing about to be released. They seem to call him to pull them out and show them to the world.


Dangerous! Xiao Shuxiang began to be unable to hold himself back anymore. His vision was far from sane. If until he is unable to control himself or someone does not realize it, then something bad will definitely happen.
