HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
171 - Revenge Revenge [Arc 1 - Xiao Shuxiang END]

Jian Yang, Li Huanshou and Lan Guan Zhi had actually obtained permission from the elders of the Cloud Sea Sect. They had already made Wang Zhao and Mo Huai startled as well as excited.


Yan Tianhen and Xiao Shuxiang were also delighted. Unfortunately, Zhi Shu himself had absolutely no idea that Jian Yang, Li Huanshou and Lan Guan Zhi had gone to the Cloud Sea Sect.


Zhi Shu only found out when the carriage of the Cloud Sea Sect group had already left. He was so disappointed that he cried because he was left behind.


The journey from the Thousand Sword Palace to the Cloud Sea Sect actually took about six more months. But because it passes through a gate called Dai Mili, the journey can be very short.


The first two days, the group of the Cloud Sea Sect had already arrived at the region where the gate of Da Mili was located. On that journey, there were actually several Demonic Beasts that appeared, but due to the aura emitted on the carriage where the elders were-Demon Beast had chosen to leave and had no intention of making an attack.


The journey of Xiao Shuxiang and his friends was fairly smooth, especially when they had passed through the gate of Di Mili. Now the group had reached the forest belonging to the Cloud Sea Sect.


"From here, we will spend 7 days traveling to be able to actually arrive at the Cloud Sea Sect. That was also if his journey could be this surfing," Xiao Shuxiang explained to Jian Yang and Lan Guan Zhi who were one carriage with him.


"Brother Xiao, are Demonic Beasts also numerous in this place?" Li Huanshou asked. He was also on the same train. Especially beside him was also Wang Zhao.


Xiao Shuxiang nodded slowly, "Of course. Every place has its own dangers. So even though the trip this time is very quiet, you still cannot lose your vigilance. What ... You've never been to the Cloud Sea Sect before?"


Li Huanshou shook his head slowly, "Not at all. The Conference of the Eternal Alliance two years ago .... It is located in the Holy Star Tower. This is the first time I've come,"


"Me too" Jian Yang nodded. He said, "This kind of feeling reminds me of a trip to Yi City a few months ago. There were many Demonic Beasts along the road that my chariot and Shizun passed through, some even to the point of attacking our carriage. The most exhausting one was actually not a high-leveled Demonic Beast, but a low-leveled Demonic Beast that attacked in groups."


"That was indeed the most difficult," Wang Zhao agreed. "This kind of "Demon Beast would never leave before it actually dying or exhaling its last breath. They were like the deathless Demonic Beasts,"


"If so, then you need to be stronger in order to face them." Xiao Shuxiang smiled amiably.


"..............."


Lan Guan Zhi himself just sat quietly while watching his good friend chat with Jian Yang and Li Huanshou. Mo Huai also along the way did not say too much.


Li Huanshou himself brought quite a lot of supplies. He even deliberately bought arak in the city to later enjoy in the train.


Lan Guan Zhi, Mo Huai, and Wang Zhao were initially jolted when Li Huanshou took out the wine from within his Spatial Ring. Wang Zhao and Mo Huai to the point of reprimanding Li Huanshou, but not so with Xiao Shuxiang.


Lan Guan Zhi's best friend was very happy and more eager to talk with his new friend. They stayed up late and talked about a lot of things together.


However, like life that does not always go beautifully every day. That kind of fun suddenly changed when Xiao Shuxiang's carriage entourage took another two days to get to the Cloud Sea Sect.


!!


Elder Wang Jing Li's carriage at the very front was seen stopping. This made the train behind him stop.


Yan Tianhen was curious about the actions of his Shizun who stopped the speed of the carriage. He followed Elder Wang Jing Li down and was greatly shocked when there were three disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect who blocked the carriage.


"Sir...!" one of the disciples recognized Elder Wang Jing Li. He walked in a hurry and it was only seen that the face of the disciple was very pale.


"What happened to you?!" Elder Wang Jing Li was shocked to see the condition of his injured disciple.


With a breath of breath, the male disciple replied. "Secte .... Sect attacked!"


!!


Yan Tianhen was extremely shocked. He then approached the other students and asked the brothers. The young man he was questioning was none other than Gao Shan.


Yan Tianhen held onto both shoulders of Gao Shan and asked in a serious tone, "What happened exactly?! Say it!"


Gao Shan had trouble swallowing his saliva. His voice sounded trembling as he replied, "The Demon Valley Sect came and attacked us. Many of the brothers were seriously injured and became their hostages. This island .... Until it's split."


!!!


"GAO SHAN'S..!" Yan Tianhen felt that he had been struck by lightning hearing Gao Shan's words. His hand squeezed firmly onto the shoulder of that fellow-brother and in an instant, it was as if his entire breath had stopped.


Gao Shan is a man who is also talented and very skilled in swordsmanship. A true man should not shed tears, but this time he could not help it.


He stands. It looks very sturdy, but it really is not. His body trembled and his hands were now hard to swing the sword again. Gao Shan had never been afraid of anything so far, but what had happened to his brothers and sisters and the current state of his sect-had given him a great sense of dread.


"Sa-Brother Yan..." Gao Shan had not been able to control his voice. That sounds even worse than it was.


Not far from where Yan Tianhen was, Wang Zhao and the other elders walked towards them with astonished facial expressions. Xiao Shuxiang, Lan Guan Zhi and Ling Qing Zhu were among them.


"What's this about? Why you?" Wang Zhao asked as he was near Yan Tianhen.


"He's hurt!" Mo Huai exclaimed as he watched Gao Shan well.


?!


Lan Guan Zhi and Ling Qing Zhu gasped when suddenly the disciple of the Cloud Sea Sect held the hands of the young man they were very familiar with. While Xiao Shuxiang was also jolted by what happened.


"You ..." the Cloud Sea Sect disciple spoke. She had trouble swallowing, "You ... Xiao Shuxiang, right?"


Xiao Shuxiang frowned. "What happened to you?"


"The Devil Valley Sect. They attacked my sect, took my brothers hostage and messed things up.." The disciple of the Cloud Sea Sect cried, "You .... Only you can save my brothers,"


!!


Xiao Shuxiang held his breath. He suddenly felt an unpleasant feeling. He seemed to know what was going on, though not very detailed.


Xiao Shuxiang let go of the grip on his hand and without saying anything, he darted. His feet retraced on one of the tree branches before Xiao Shuxiang's back was no longer visible.


Lan Guan Zhi and Ling Qing Zhu clearly gasped when Xiao Shuxiang left alone. Both of them also darted to catch up with their friend. Elder Jing Shang Yu also appeared to be darting, without even inviting the other elders.


Mo Huai was left with Wang Zhao and the other elders. He was trying to treat the injuries that Gao Shan and the other two disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect had sustained.


Gao Shan himself invited the elders and the others to the place where the disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect who had survived were. The situation became very tense and even the air felt tight at that moment.


Elsewhere, Xiao Shuxiang's feet retraced on the tree branch. His facial expression was so solemn and his eyes were straight forward.


The longer it darted, Xiao Shuxiang could smell fresh blood, smoke and even a puff of dust. His facial expression stiffened especially now that he was starting to see the boundary of this forest.


Xiao Shuxiang's feet were treading on the last branch of the tree. His eyes contained shock as he looked at the end of the forest that was not supposed to be a field with burn marks.


!!!


Xiao Shuxiang stepped on the tip of the ground. Her eyes widened. He should have seen the huge building of the Cloud Sea Sect, not a land like this. So, where is every building of the Cloud Sea Sect?!


"..............." when Xiao Shuxiang was thinking about it-some small rocks fell not far in front of him.


He also looked up a little and was very surprised when he saw the Cloud Sea Sect that should be connected to this forest become very far away now.


The place where Xiao Shuxiang stood was the most extensive floating island among the other floating islands. But now the island seems to have been divided into three which one of them is now destroyed, burned and become rocks that fall slowly.


Ling Qing Zhu who retraced first beside his Guardian Guard. He watched the terrible events before him and froze stiffly. Never once had there been a shadow that the floating island where the Cloud Sea Sect was located would experience this kind of condition.


The new Lan Guan Zhi seemed to freeze. Moreover, he saw a floating island far in front of him seemed to emit smoke as if there was a large fire there.


Lan Guan Zhi and Ling Qing Zhu seemed stiff to take out even a single word. Both of them could not take their eyes off what they saw. It was obvious that it was a messy island.


"This ...... My fault." Xiao Shuxiang finally opened his voice despite sounding like a slow mutter. He spoke again, "I should have killed them then..."


Ling Qing Zhu heard it and turned his head, "......... Shuxiang?"


"The girl and the man she was with.... They should have died at my hands." Xiao Shuxiang clenched tightly his hands even to the point of shaking.


The gaze of Xiao Shuxiang's eyes sharpened and his teeth were bluffing strongly. In fact, the veins stiffened on his forehead and it also appeared that a thin blackish vein formed on his neck.


"........ Shuxiang, relax." Lan Guan Zhi held onto her good friend's arm when she noticed the change in the young man beside her.


Lan Guan Zhi actually had no idea what was happening. But from the words of Xiao Shuxiang just now-she could also draw the conclusion that this incident had a relationship with her friend.


To Ling Qing Zhu himself. He felt that he seemed to know what was really going on. His Guardian had once fought fiercely and slaughtered many of the people of the Demon Valley Sect. It was just that when there were only a few people left, Xiao Shuxiang stopped the attack because just then the elders from the Cloud Sea Sect came suddenly.


Because of that incident, Xiao Shuxiang had to be severely injured from pulling back the power he released.


At that moment, the enemy managed to escape. The risk was indeed great, but if those people from the Demon Valley Sect were willing to think clearly-they would definitely not look for trouble or attack the Cloud Sea Sect anymore.


But who would have thought. Instead of being afraid, the Demon Valley Sect had instead attacked this place. His timing was also at the time when the elders were leaving to attend the Eternal Alliance Conference.


I don't know why. But it feels like it was planned before. It was as if the Demon Valley Sect had already arranged everything. Not only did it mess up the conference event, the sect even made this place very messy.


The Demon Valley Sect was clearly performing an act of Revenge!
