HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
225 - Assistance (2)

Quickly, Hei Lian's body turned into mist and instantly lunged towards Wang Zhao, Elder Xie Yanran and Liu Wei Lin.


The attack was unavoidable, yet Elder Xie Yanran was still faster to withstand the attack and had Liu Wei Lin and Wang Zhao thrown aside.


!!!


It was a reckless act, Elder Xie Yanran put himself at risk to save these two young men. At the same time he knew full well that he was not a cultivator who could face forbidden techniques like the manipulation of this form.


It flashed in Elder Xie Yanran's mind that he couldn't possibly survive, yet the moment of certainty would actually eat away at his heart-the scent of a wisteria flower instantly enveloped his kiss.


?!


Silhouette visible. It was a fine wave of hair as beautiful as white clouds and a flickering of clothes made of fine silk. At the same time, a loud voice sounded.


There was a golden spring-like light that radiated and formed a barrier, a shield of spiritual energy had been seen before Elder Xie Yanran.


The barrier was sparkling with changing colors. One color blocks one element and is enough to dispel the acid fog.


Ling Qing Zhu stood in front of Elder Xie Yanran, a white dress with a red wisteria flower pattern fluttering gracefully. His eyes were sharp and cold.


One hand of the thin veiled girl holding her sword, Baiyi. While the other hand serves to control the spiritual energy for its artificial barrier.


"You ...." Elder Xie Yanran was actually unexpected with the arrival of Ling Qing Zhu, let alone the ability to create this kind of barrier was not an easy technique to master.


"..............." Ling Qing Zhu himself did not say anything. He only glanced slightly towards Elder Xie Yanran's right hand and saw that the hand of this figure was only bones.


Elder Xie Yanran was just about to speak to Ling Qing Zhu when his tone suddenly became an order. He saw the thick fog before him darting back and leading to where Wang Zhao was.


Ling Qing Zhu spontaneously moved his finger and the barrier of his spiritual energy trapped the fog to not get to Wang Zhao's place.


Elder Xie Yanran saw the thick fog gathering at one point and then started to solidify. Hey Lian returned to her human body shape.


Ling Qing Zhu blinked. Unexpectedly the enemy turned out to be a small child, let alone the face of the figure before him was so innocent and as if it was impossible to commit a crime.


"There are people who are quite capable of facing me," Hei Lian smiled coldly. "But it seems you're still too new. Hmph, I wonder how long you can last!"


Hei Lian blasted an extremely large attack and was unable to be received by the barrier from Ling Qing Zhu. The thin veiled girl and Elder Xie Yanran jumped dodging the powerful attack.


Whatever it hit, be it soil, grass, or tree-trunk-all melted as if it had been doused by poisonous water. That huge attack reached the stables of the Cloud Sea Sect and even scratched a bit of one of the walls of Xiao Shuxiang's bamboo hut before completely stopping.


Because it happened so quickly, no one was able to handle it. This attack was even able to overtake the disciples who had previously managed to save themselves with the help of Elder Xie Yanran.


Most of those students had great tutoring abilities, though, so if they were still defeated by the delay from the attack of Hei Lian-then it would certainly be certain as fast as what the attack of the daughter of the Demon Valley Sect was.


Xiao Shuxiang who was inside his bamboo hut and was trying to perfect the potion made by Zhang Xiao Lian looked surprised. No wind, no rain. Suddenly a loud sound like lightning flashed behind his back.


Xiao Shuxiang froze when he saw part of his room, starting from the walls, the wood pile, and the roof became porous just like that. He blinked after a while.


"What's going on?" Xiao Shuxiang was clearly confused. He circulated his gaze around and indeed nothing could be the object of this shocking incident.


"I also did not mix any strange ingredients into this potion ... So where did that attack come from?" Xiao Shuxiang frowned and he started walking closer.


The bamboo hut, if it did not have a sturdy pillar, may have collapsed at this time. Xiao Shuxiang even began to hear a faint creaking sound that made the heart palpitate.


"..............." Xiao Shuxiang stretched out one finger to touch the wood that was suddenly porous. But before his index finger touched the wood, he immediately grimaced in pain.


Xiao Shuxiang spontaneously retracted his finger. He felt a piercing heat and gasped when he saw his index finger dripping blood. He also grimaced because this taste was quite painful.


"..............." Xiao Shuxiang's eyes were rounded when he saw the skin on his index finger melting and revealing his bones. He also took a few steps back.


"It's sour..." Xiao Shuxiang held his breath and then walked towards the door. The moment she opened the wooden door-at the same time Mo Huai ran towards her hut.


"Young Master Xiao-" Mo Huai was about to exclaim Xiao Shuxiang when his steps suddenly came to a halt.


"Mo Huai, what are you doing here?" Xiao Shuxiang asked and suddenly realized something. He said, "Do you know where the attack came from?"


"What?" Mo Huai flinched. He blinked and realized that the badly damaged hut before him was not Xiao Shuxiang. He exhaled and tried to calm himself.


"Young Master Xiao," Mo Huai said softly. "I have to tell you something and it's very important,"


Xiao Shuxiang frowned. He noticed the look on Mo Huai's face that looked a bit tense. He asked, "What was so important that you came in such a hurry? Was there an enemy attack?"


Mo Huai flinched, this young man's guess was absolutely correct. He nodded and then said, "I previously accompanied young master Wang Zhao to practice under the guidance of elder Xie Yanran. It was just that suddenly, there was a strange mist capable of melting the skin and killing in just the blink of an eye. The attack came from a member of the Demon Valley Sect,"


Xiao Shuxiang flinched, yet his facial expression did not change much. He also breathed slowly and patted Mo Huai's left shoulder.


Xiao Shuxiang said, "Go and look for the Mad Beggar Boy. Then report this to Dao elder Fang An, help him to evacuate the disciples."


"Young Master Xiao-!" Mo Huai was shocked when Xiao Shuxiang suddenly disappeared after saying that. He couldn't even see the lesion from the young man earlier. It felt like Lan Guan Zhi's good friend had completely disappeared from before him.


For some reason, Mo Huai's facial expression became rather sharp. His eyes darkened as he patted the dust on his left shoulder, the place where Xiao Shuxiang touched him earlier.


Mo Huai was breathing slowly, "I should need to tell him next time. I don't like anyone touching me while saying that crazy guy's name."


Mo Huai gave a horrified goosebump. Anything related to the Mad Beggar Boy, as much as possible he was unwilling to get too involved with him.


The problem was now, Xiao Shuxiang even spied on to meet the man. The most anti figure he had encountered. Mo Huai was really trying to keep his distance although indeed sometimes he could not continue avoiding the man with the bamboo stick either.

On the other hand, there were a few disciples who had managed to arrive and they rushed to meet the elders at their respective resting places. It was just that indeed, Elder Chu Sheng Nan and Elder Jing Shang Yu were on his own floating island.


For Elder Xie Yanran, he along with Ling Qing Zhu, Liu Wei Lin and Wang Zhao lured Hei Lian away from the deepest region of the Cloud Sea Sect.


Since Elder Xie Yanran could dart quickly, he floated up and pulled Wang Zhao's hand out of the island where the Cloud Sea Sect was located. Their destination is the nearby floating island, Shi shan.


"Chairman Xie..?" Wang Zhao looked back and was actually quite touched because Elder Xie Yanran cared so much for him.


"We must lure him to a place that no one lives. Shi shan Island is the right place, we'll figure out how to beat that kid there."


Hei Lian only wanted to kill Wang Zhao, so that was why she followed Elder Xie Yanran who brought Wang Zhao with her. But it didn't take long until the fog stopped moving and formed the body of a girl.


"Do you think I don't know your plans, huh?" Hey Lian looks grunting. He did not chase after Elder Xie Yanran and Wang Zhao for feeling that he was being lured.


Ling Qing Zhu and Liu Wei Lin were at the back. They had not been able to keep up with Elder Xie Yanran's speed. That was why when he saw Hei Lian, the two of them tried to keep their distance and hide.


Hei Lian said even though he no longer saw Elder Xie Yanran and Wang Zhao because the position of the two people was getting further away.


He grinned and then exclaimed, "Go..! Go if you don't want to see this place anymore. People from the Cloud Sea Sect ... I'll kill them all and it's your fault!"


Hey Lian turned back into fog and then shot up into the sky. Ling Qing Zhu saw that the fog was constantly clumping in the sky and began to form clouds.


"Miss Ling ..." Liu Wei Lin muttered, he also saw how the fog had quickly formed a thick start and even covered the sky in this region of his sect.


"Miss Ling, did you see it?" Liu Wei Lin again asked and made Ling Qing Zhu just mutter softly in return.


Liu Wei Lin said, "Somehow .... But my feelings are getting bad. As if something bad was going to happen,"


Ling Qing Zhu looked towards the sky which was now covered by a blood-red cloud. He held his breath and then said, "......... Bad things have happened."
