HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
220 - Rabbit Trial

When the process of releasing a single seal that bound his strength, Xiao Shuxiang faintly heard an unfamiliar voice that seemed to be in his head. His forehead shriveled.

"..... Because of his crimes and sins, all the great sects had deployed their disciples to hunt him down. Getting rid of it helps the world get rid of the great evil,"

"Because you said that I did it, then I did. Your hearts have all decided the truth, so why ask me again? Everyone in this world already hates me, so there's nothing more to say."

Xiao Shuxiang's heart beat was heavy. He suddenly opened his eyes. It was just that back then, the figure of Elder Wang Jing Li was already nowhere to be seen in front of him.

"..............." Xiao Shuxiang's breath became irregular. He could feel sweat spots forming on his forehead.

Xiao Shuxiang circulated his gaze and did not find Elder Wang Jing Li at all. His breathing was still wheezing and his facial expression slightly worsened.

"What impression just crossed it," Xiao Shuxiang gulped. He was most disliked by the feeling where his heart was beating uncomfortably, let alone his body suddenly becoming shivering.

Xiao Shuxiang stood up suddenly and then decided to leave. If he remained silent, his mind would continue to drift and unpleasant memories would appear in his head.

On the other hand, Elder Wang Jing Li returned inside his room and looked pale-faced. The muscular man was in a sturdy standing position, but it did not take long until he suddenly spat out blood.

Elder Wang Jing Li clenched tightly his hands and then sat down on one of the chairs. He exhaled and then shook his head slowly.

"The young man .... I don't know what the creature is inside of him. I only removed one seal, but it was counterattacked."

Elder Wang Jing Li had indeed managed to help Xiao Shuxiang to remove the seal that held back the young man's strength. But unexpectedly, when one seal Xiao Shuxiang loose-again-Chairman Wang Jing Li actually got a power attack in. Lucky he can still handle it.

"Although I haven't been able to use my strongest technique yet, but now I've been able to use the Transferring Mirror Technique. This was more than enough," Xiao Shuxiang watched his hands and saw that there was a thin wind encircling both of his wrists.

Xiao Shuxiang exhaled and looked forward, "Now live Ying xiong. I have to find a way to make this sword a spiritual weapon. If I can do it, then ..."

Xiao Shuxiang's eyes lit up brightly. He blinked a few times before his mood returned to normal. The smile seen on his face was predictable, the young man was planning something.

Xiao Shuxiang walked leisurely and would only think of practicing when he became remembered the strange potion given by Elder Meng Hao Niang.

He needed to test this peach-smelling herb, but it was impossible to use himself as a guinea pig. Xiao Shuxiang needed someone else so that he could see the effects directly.

"..............." Xiao Shuxiang watched the jade bottle he had just taken out. He watched her carefully and began to mutter softly.

"I could probably develop this potion..." Xiao Shuxiang said, "Wang Zhao is from the Demon Valley Sect and seeing the character of that boy-he will definitely ask for the safety of his citizens. And I'd hate to have to face an enemy that can't be killed. This potion ... It will be a solution. But first, I need a guinea pig."

Xiao Shuxiang rubbed his chin and began to decide about the person who could help him. He would go to that person's place at night so there wouldn't be much of a bully.

Incidentally, when it was dark. The person Xiao Shuxiang was targeting was inside his room and was seen studying a scroll on the table sitting in front of him.

Her long white hair was beautifully cut. He had the color of his eyes as blue as the sky and was an incredible figure. Without wearing her thin veil, she was far more dazzling than anyone could have imagined.

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

That figure was none other than the young miss of the Ling family, Ling Qing Zhu. The girl who was difficult to guess the contents of her mind and heart when only paying attention from her face that was as beautiful as white jade.

In terms of his personality and attitude all along, Ling Qing Zhu had almost no disability. If only he could show a smile even if it was just a thin thread, it would have been a struggle for warriors.

Possessing Ling Qing Zhu was an indisputable celestial mess. It's just that there's someone who doesn't seem to be aware of how lucky he is.

"White Cat..! Are you inside?"

?!

Ling Qing Zhu blinked at the sound of his Guardian Guard with the sound of a knock on the door. He was about to take his face cover when the door of his room was opened.

Not even accepted, Xiao Shuxiang had already sauntered while carrying a tray of tea. That dazzling friendly smile made Ling Qing Zhu no longer able to tell his Guardian Guardians to come out.

"White cat, what are you doing?" Xiao Shuxiang asked as he placed the tea tray on the table and began to sit in front of his White Cat.

"Where have you been?" Ling Qing Zhu did not answer Xiao Shuxiang's question, he instead asked another question.

Xiao Shuxiang replied in a pleasant voice, "You will see me going to elder Meng's place. He asked me to clean the pot. I also went to elder Wang's place and trained for a while with him."

Xiao Shuxiang smiled, "Are you looking for me?"

Ling Qing Zhu noticed the young man before him before returning to look at the scroll before him. He then said, "........ You've been gone too long. And I'm not the only one looking for you,"

Xiao Shuxiang blinked, he asked. "Then where are the others?"

"........... Elder Dao came while you were gone. He brought young master Lan with him,"

"White Cat, I didn't just ask about Lan Zhi." Xiao Shuxiang smiled bitterly and then said, "Yes up. Look, I brought you some tea. You should drink it,"

Ling Qing Zhu looked at Xiao Shuxiang and made a cold voice, "........... What intention?"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Shuxiang flinched. He did not expect the girl in front of him to ask like that.

Ling Qing Zhu said, "It's not usual for you to bring this kind of thing here."

Xiao Shuxiang exhaled, "My dear wife. What's wrong if I do a little good? I care about you, which is why I make tea. Is this not enough?"

"But it doesn't feel like it's going to be the same as mine," Xiao Shuxiang persuaded, "I've never made this kind of thing on any girl, are you seriously unwilling to accept my kindness?"

"..............." Ling Qing Zhu was actually not a problem with his Guardian Guard. But this was indeed the first time Xiao Shuxiang had behaved so attentively and like something was planned.

Ling Qing Zhu was breathing slowly. He did not want to think ill of his own Guardian. After all he was certain that this young man would never hurt him.

"..............." Xiao Shuxiang watched as Ling Qing Zhu poured the tea he had already brought into a cup.

He also patiently waited for this girl to taste the tea that had previously been mixed with Zhang Xiao Lian's artificial potion.

To Xiao Shuxiang, the Rabbit Trial for its own sake could be anyone. He would not hesitate to take advantage of others, including Ling Qing Zhu.

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

Xiao Shuxiang involuntarily held his breath as the girl in front of him began to lift the cup containing his homemade tea. Ling Qing Zhu's new lips would touch the outskirts of the cup when a foreign voice sounded and made Xiao Shuxiang startled.

"Miss Ling?! Is Shuxiang there-Ah, what a coincidence that you're here."

?!

Xiao Shuxiang turned his head and saw the Mad Beggar Boy walking hurriedly towards him. She frowned and felt bad on one side because this man was already bothering her.

"What is this about you?" Xiao Shuxiang asked with a taut tone. He was annoyed to see the Mad Beggar Boy.

"Shuxiang, seriously. You should check on your fellow-colleagues, "Crazy Beggar Boy sits by Ling Qing Zhu's side of the table and appears to be stingy.

Ling Qing Zhu felt that this man with a bamboo stick was already experiencing an unpleasant condition. He also politely extended the tea he had not had time to drink to the Crazy Beggar Boy so that the man could calm down again.

Without warning, the Mad Beggar Boy received the favor and immediately sipped Ling Qing Zhu's tea to the ground. Xiao Shuxiang was shocked because the incident happened quickly.

"The Crazy Beggar ...." The expression on Xiao Shuxiang's face turned pale. He did not expect that the Mad Beggar Boy would replace his White Cat into a guinea pig.

"That Wen cannot be told. I'm really tired of dealing with it," the Mad Beggar Boy exhaled and started rubbing his nape. He was getting tired somehow.

"You .... All right?" Xiao Shuxiang touched the shoulder of the man beside him and blinked a few times, "What effect will it look like this fast?"

"Yi Wen it-"

"Miss Ling...! Is my brother Xiao here?!"

?!

Ling Qing Zhu turned his head when he heard the voice of the girl who was none other than Yi Wen. The guardian-like brother of his Guardians suddenly breezed in.

The Crazy Beggar Boy recognized this voice and immediately turned his head. He was just about to curse at Yi Wen when something suddenly happened. Somehow, a sigh sounded in his chest.

"Crazy Beggar, are you here too?" Yi Wen shook his head. He only wanted to kidnap his Brother Xiao from Ling Qing Zhu, but instead met this most annoying man.

"..............." The Mad Beggar Boy said nothing. He only looked at Yi Wen in silence and felt that both of his cheeks were rather hot for some reason.

"Yi Wen, what exactly is going on with you and this man?" Xiao Shuxiang asked as he poured his homemade tea into the jade cup and gave it to Yi Wen.

The girl crossed her hands and then exhaled. Yi Wen began to sit beside Xiao Shuxiang and said, "There are some disciples of this sect who would be friends with me. But the Crazy Beggar Boy was already scolding them all. Now, I can't get close to those handsome disciples anymore."

"You've got me, why look at other people again?"

Yi Wen was shocked and choked on the tea he drank. Xiao Shuxiang and Ling Qing Zhu turned their heads, they seemed to have the same reaction - the Mad Beggar was somehow able to talk like that.

"You..." Yi Wen blinked a few times. She patted her cheek gently and poured tea back in her cup before drinking again. He noticed the Crazy Beggar Boy who looked annoyed.

Ling Qing Zhu could see Yi Wen's cheeks that looked red. The good-bodied girl placed the cup on the table and then coughed softly.

Yi Wen said, "If you .... Don't like me being so close to another young man, then I won't. But you also have to keep your attitude,"

"I'm like this, because of you. I wouldn't do that if you'd stopped acting flirtatious,"

"Then you can't avoid me. You can't keep your distance from me, you can't push me away, let alone ask me to leave."

"I ... Won't do that,"

"..............." Xiao Shuxiang shifted his seat and was now beside Ling Qing Zhu. He held the white-haired girl's arm and looked very close.

Xiao Shuxiang half whispered, "White Cat ... Did you see anything strange?"

"........... Mn," Ling Qing Zhu nodded softly without turning her head towards Xiao Shuxiang. He watched Yi Wen and the Crazy Beggar Boy who suddenly spoke very honestly to each other.

Xiao Shuxiang breathed softly, "Is it possible that this is due to the effect of the potion..? But .... Why does it feel like an elixir of honesty rather than a concoction of love?"

"..............." Ling Qing Zhu did not know what was really going on between Yi Wen and the Mad Beggar Boy. But what he knew better now were-The figures from his Guardian were very close to him.

In fact, whether realized or not but--Xiao Shuxiang was so tightly in holding onto his arm. He felt bad to reprimand this dazzling young man.
