HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
229 - End of the Battle (2)

Liu Wei Lin watched as the red clouds enveloping the floating island where his sect was located now turned into fiery clouds. He also heard the sound of explosions getting bigger and bigger.

"..............." Ling Qing Zhu himself was still in Liu Wei Lin's arms. He also witnessed the changes in the clouds that enveloped the Cloud Sea Sect and at the same time the fiery acid rain that was getting heavier.

The entire forest on the vast floating island was almost all burnt. There was really no place to hide or save yourself.

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

Although Liu Wei Lin's facial expression appeared flat, but the look in his eyes contained deep anger. What appeared before him was a merciless attack and as if he really wanted to scorch everyone in his sect.

"............. Young Master Liu," Ling Qing Zhu made a sound as he felt a strong squeeze from Liu Wei Lin on his arm. He made the red-clothed youth flinch.

"I'm sorry, Miss Ling." Liu Wei Lin was only aware of her current state of being holding this beautiful white haired girl.

"Did I hurt you?" Liu Wei Lin asked.

"............. Mn," Ling Qing Zhu shook his head slowly. He was about to ask Liu Wei Lin to lower him when he heard the voice of this young man back.

"We'd better go to elder Jing Shang Yu's place and tell him about this news,"

"Chairman Jing .... Nothing in the sect?" Ling Qing Zhu slightly frowned. His question made Liu Wei Lin look at him.

"Elder Jing is at his residence, Xuyang Peak Mountain." Liu Wei Lin took a breath and then said, "Miss Ling hold on. I'm gonna go as fast as I can,"

?!

Ling Qing Zhu gasped as suddenly Liu Wei Lin tightened his sling. He was forced to take hold of the young man's clothes and was taken away.

Mount Puncak Xuyang was a mountain from a floating island separate from the floating island where the Cloud Sea Sect was located. The location of these two places is quite far away and takes a short time to go there.

It was just that Liu Wei Lin exerted all his strength and shot up extremely fast. He hopes his friends trapped in the enemy's fiery acid rain can survive until he returns with help.

On the other hand, it was precisely above the fiery clouds belonging to Hei Lian. The fight was fierce, this time Xiao Shuxiang no longer fought Hei Lian alone. Wang Zhao was now with him and the young man impressed him enough.

Ever since the roots on Wang Zhao's Dantian disappeared in part, the young man had obtained great strength and even some of his fighting techniques came from his upbringing in his own sect.

Xiao Shuxiang watched how quick and agile Wang Zhao was in the face of the brutal attack from Hei Lian. The young man had moves that he had never even seen before, only that indeed-Wang Zhao also used the sword technique that Xiao Shuxiang had taught him.

"Mr Xiao, you rest. Let me deal with it," Wang Zhao knew that Xiao Shuxiang had already reached the limit of his ability. He could see the face of this young man who looked so pale.

"Hmph, what do you mean? It's still not much,"

"Mr Xiao had absolutely no obligation to exert himself, let alone fight him. This is my problem, so let me solve it myself."

"..............." Xiao Shuxiang watched as Wang Zhao darted after speaking so to him. The young man's fight against Hei Lian was so overwhelming and made many loud noises.

Xiao Shuxiang regulated his breathing and indeed did not help. But even so, his alertness never decreased.

Xiao Shuxiang gathered strength and at the same time, Wang Zhao continued to fight against Hei Lian. He had a little difficulty when facing the poisonous attacks of those members of the Demon Valley Sect.

Wang Zhao was indeed from the Black Stream, he was trained to be immune in the face of poison. It was just that Hei Lian's poison was strong enough and Wang Zhao himself had limits with his ability to withstand the effects of the poison.

!!

An attack led to Wang Zhao's blind spot. He had almost been hit by that devastating attack had it not been helped by Xiao Shuxiang. Wang Zhao really did not expect to still survive with such a formidable attack.

Wang Zhao floated up and walked over to Xiao Shuxiang. He held his wooden sword and breathed slowly. He said, "We need a plan to deal with it. Can't go on like this,"

"Then make a plan, then,"

"I'll attack him directly from the front,"

"certain. I'll help you and come attack him from the front,"

Wang Zhao without hesitation nodded and immediately darted. Xiao Shuxiang followed behind and was indeed more focused on defense. On this side, Wang Zhao who became the main attacker because his strength was now greater than Xiao Shuxiang's.

Hei Lian herself was already annoyed at not being able to kill Xiao Shuxiang and now Wang Zhao was also in the fight. He could not hold back his emotions and wanted to finish them off both.

The rumbling grew louder and the flames on the red cloud continued to flare. There was no Hei Lian's voice, but the turmoil that occurred was already proof that the figure was extremely wrathful.

Wang Zhao gasped as the attack he was facing grew stronger. He almost hesitated, but Xiao Shuxiang's exclamation asking him to come forward without fear made him regain his confidence.

!!

Xiao Shuxiang himself was actually annoyed at having to need the help of others to deal with Hei Lian. This was also with the help of Wang Zhao and until now still not seen the results of their fight.

The opponent that Xiao Shuxiang was facing had not been pressed at all. It is precisely they who are most likely to be tired first because of running out of energy.

"............. This never-failing plan had not even been able to urge him," Xiao Shuxiang gasped. He took a breath, "He's really a strong enemy."

Xiao Shuxiang admitted that Hei Lian, a member of the Demon Valley Sect, was not playing games when fighting and it was very bad for him.

Hey Lian may initially demean the opponent and be arrogant, but when starting to fight-the figure like a little girl is very serious. Because of this, then the impact of his attack was so terrifying.

Wang Zhao realized that, he even gritted his teeth. Wang Zhao said, "Don't know how things are down there now and somehow Shizun's circumstances,"

Xiao Shuxiang heard that and then said, "Elder Dao Fang An must be protecting his disciples. You just focus on what's in front of you,"

"Mr Xiao, we need another plan..."

Xiao Shuxiang realized that. He also looked at Wan Zhao and asked without losing his vigilance, "The enemy we are facing is a person from your sect. Do you know of any weaknesses that could be used against him?"

Wang Zhao shook his head, the look on his face grew even paler as he recalled something. He held his breath as he said, "Hey Lian has no weaknesses."

"Impossible," Xiao Shuxiang made a stern voice. "Everyone has a weakness, no one is perfect in this world. There must be something we can use, think."

Wang Zhao's breathing was heavy. He had done everything he could and was still attacking Hei Lian now. But indeed, he did not know anything about this weakness of his opponent.

Xiao Shuxiang himself did not give up. He was sure there was something that could be done to urge Hei Lian. They only needed to look for it while continuing to fight and defend so as not to suffer severe injuries.

!!

The longer the fight, the blood inside Wang Zhao heated up and it didn't take long until it felt like it was going to boil. The young man felt a powerful spiritual energy gathering and rushing in each of his blood cells.

The mark on Wang Zhao's right temple now turned red and a pitch-black aura enveloped his sword blade. Wang Zhao sensed something different and made him even more excited.

Every single youth fighting move was actually measurable and admirable. It's just that if it wasn't protected by Xiao Shuxiang's Moving Mirror, Wang Zhao would have already suffered a lot of injuries. After all, the fighting experience of this young man was still too minimal despite his great strength.

Wang Zhao was a strong young man and Xiao Shuxiang admitted it. The young man's fighting techniques and movements were nothing like amateurs, only that there were still quite a number of gaps in sight.

Xiao Shuxiang himself, even though his practice was now weak and in terms of manpower he was under Wang Zhao-himself had a non-playful fighting experience. To him, as long as he was still able to move-then Xiao Shuxiang would continue to fight back.

"............. I need a gap to use that thing," Xiao Shuxiang focused on the Moving Mirror and also attacked Hei Lian's power lesion using Yinng xiong.

His immortal sword absorbed the attack and Xiao Shuxiang's sword swing returned the attack with even greater force.

"Mr Xiao, protect me." Wang Zhao suddenly made a sound, his facial expression was so solemn and it didn't take long until he dashed as fast as lightning.

Xiao Shuxiang flinched, but he still quickly responded to the request. Although he was tired and barely strong anymore, but he still kept Wang Zhao and continued to support him.

A loud voice rang out and the slashing was now back again. Wang Zhao charged into the fiery cloud that was Hei Lian's form directly and without a sense of trepidation darted down.

In a few large swings of the sword, a fierce power was created and was full of suppressing aura. All of that came from Wang Zhao's swing of weapons.

Xiao Shuxiang's moving mirror was then also formed and Wang Zhao's near-miss strike of the fiery cloud now entered the mirror.

Not yet had Wang Zhao lodged a protest, something happened again. The Xiao Shuxiang Moving Mirror formed and then issued an enhanced attack of Wang Zhao.

The attack was extraordinarily powerful and from there the sound of screeches hurting hearing was again heard. This time the impact of the attack made it seem as if there were shards in the sky.

At the moment when Wang Zhao was about to strike back, at that very moment another attack shot up and directly attacked the Hei Lian fiery cloud until the roaring screams of the child roared.

!!!

Xiao Shuxiang and Wang Zhao were shocked. Both of them were convinced that the attack just now was not them doing it.

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

There's somebody else. The figure of the white-clothed man that floated not far above them. Wang Zhao rounded his eyes when he knew that the person he saw was none other than the Xuyang Peak Elder, Jing Shang Yu.

Just as Wang Zhao wanted to make a sound, Elder Jing Shang Yun who had a cold facial expression instantly lunged at the fiery clouds below him with a fierce attack.

A big explosion is created. Xiao Shuxiang spontaneously withdrew Wang Zhao and then dodged the effects of the attack. Such a dazzling battle was now plastered before Xiao Shuxiang.

Wang Zhao was stunned, "........... Elder Jing,"

"It seems that it is indeed a cultivator with a practice as high as Elder Jing Shang Yu who can be on equal footing with Hei Lian,"

Wang Zhao gasped at Xiao Shuxiang's words and immediately turned his head towards the young man. He stared at Xiao Shuxiang for a moment before watching the fierce fight of Elder Jing Shang Yu.

Hei Lian did not show her human form, but the fiery clouds that were her form now now emitted screams and occasional angry screams.

On the other hand, Elder Jing Shang Yu was still expressionless while fighting. Before this, he was in his residence and was in a condition of improving the practice when Liu Wei Lin came.

The young man who always wore the fan appeared to be holding a white-haired girl and Liu Wei Lin in a very exhausted condition like he had used all his energy to get to his residence.

From Liu Wei Lin's explanation, Elder Jiang Shang Yu came straight here when he found out that the Cloud Sea Sect was being attacked. He was actually surprised to see the condition of this floating island that was actually burning violently.

"No longer ..." Hey Lian's voice sounded. He said in a very loud tone, "No one else is a bully..!!"

"........... Go,"

Elder Jing Shang Yu's voice was so cold. He used great spiritual energy and was able to break up the fiery clouds that were Hei Lian's form. He was at the same time, the attack of Elder Jing Shang Yu had stopped the fiery acid rain.

Xiao Shuxiang did not wait and became a spectator. As his strength gathered again, he nudged Wang Zhao as a gesture to help Elder Jing Shang Yu.

With the presence of Xiao Shuxiang and Wang Zhao as help, Elder Jing Shang Yu was helped a lot and they were now able to urge Hei Lian.

The attack of Elder Jing Shang Yu made the fiery cloud split apart, then Wang Zhao gave an attack that could aggravate the condition of the fiery cloud until the human form of Hei Lian was again seen.

Xiao Shuxiang's attack was the last and it was so powerful that it was able to make Hei Lian bounce very far away. The little girl even had trouble withstanding Xiao Shuxiang's attack which turned out not to be done once.

Xiao Shuxiang made repeated and final attacks using his moving mirror. He made Hei Lian flung out of the sky of the Cloud Sea Sect.

Without waiting for a pause, Elder Jing Shang Yu launched an attack that strengthened Xiao Shuxiang's attack.

Hey Lian could not handle this and was thrown further and further even to the floating island, Shi shan. His body hit the ground which was none other than the burial ground.
