HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
294 - Early Groove (2)

Such a fierce battle was going on between the Mad Beggar Boy and Yan Qi Lou. One person with extraordinary spiritual energy and the other is a figure with a legendary balance of Inner Energy.


Disbelief was evident on the look on Yan Qi Lou's face. He was already as powerful as swinging his weapon, but the opponent was actually so easy to resist the attack.


Aye! The Mad Beggar Boy did not avoid the deadly whip attack from Yan Qi Lou at all. The man wore his bamboo stick to withstand the incoming attacks, without even hesitating to continue moving forward in order to narrow the distance with the opponent.


Elder Chen Duan Shan was astonished, he had long since not seen the fighting ability of the Mad Beggar Boy. The figure was still as powerful as the last time he saw it.


Elder Chen Duan Shan was very amazed, but that sense of admiration was far different from what was felt by others, especially Yan Qi Lou. The woman from the Demon Valley Sect growled in annoyance as her whip attack no one could scratch the body of the Mad Beggar Boy.


"Damn it! How can he keep my attack?" Yan Qi Lou gritted his teeth. Anger was visible all over his face.


Yan Qi Lou growled, barely in control. "I really want to tear you apart..!"


"Do it if you can," the Mad Beggar Boy made a serious voice. He actually very rarely looks like a normal human in general. This is a rare occurrence and to be honest the man has his own charm.


Yan Qi Lou was overwhelmed to face this man he was fighting against. He had even used a secret weapon in the form of poisonous needles, but none of those weapons had hit this figure.


"Who is he really?" Yan Qi Lou wondered inwardly. He thought about how this figure could know about his secret weapon, even to the point of dodging.


"His practice was only at the second level of Forging Qi and he did not use spiritual energy at all, but ..." Yan Qi Lou involuntarily held his breath, "How could he attack this agile and powerful?!"


While thinking about it, the attack came back and this time surprised Yan Qi Lou. The woman had difficulty in dodging until her footrest was wrong and made her bounce quite far away.


Yan Qi Lou was of course surprised by the Mad Beggar Boy. The woman could be said to lack knowledge about the warrior figure who cultivates the Inner Energy. He would definitely not have any trouble if he knew some information.


Swordsmen could be said to be stronger than ordinary humans, yet weaker than cultivators. Only, it applies to warriors who focus on processing one or two elements of Inner Energy. If the person was like a Mad Beggar Boy with a balance of 6 elements of Inner-energy then a cultivator who could be on par with a swordsman seemed to be only two or three people in this world.


For Yan Qi Lou, he had great techniques, let alone incredible weapon control. This beautiful woman was troublesome to the opponent with her technique and the Crazy Beggar Boy admitted to that.

The fight still continues. Whether it was in the place of the Mad Beggar Boy, the disciples and patriarch of the Thousand Sword Palace, or at the place of Wang Zhao.


The loud sound of the fight seemed to be mutually disdainful to each other and made Zhi Shu who was in the residence of Elder Chen Duan Shan several times gasp in shock.


Hu Li who was standing guard outside the residence looked agitated as well. The white-haired youth watched how a lightning strike was created in the sky and saw there were several points of light colliding, even the impact of the collision was lightning and a strong tremor on the ground.


Yi Wen was still inside the room and was so focused on his Forbidden Technique. Fresh blood flowed at the corner of his lips before he started to cough and almost fell down if not held back by Ling Qing Zhu.


"Yi Wen..!" Zhi Shu exclaimed and felt extremely worried. The thread that was flowed by the spiritual energy from Yi Wen and bound in the hands of Xiao Shuxiang as well as Lan Guan Zhi was cut off suddenly. He was surprised not to play.


"You okay?" Ling Qing Zhu opened his voice and gently rubbed Yi Wen's back. He saw this beautiful girl looking breathless.


"I ... I'm not strong," Yi Wen coughed again, he requested that Ling Qing Zhu massage his nape.


"Yi Wen..!" Zhi Shu gulped, his facial features extremely worried. "What about Brother Xiao and Young Master Lan?! They have not woken up yet, Yi Wen. You ... You saved them, didn't you?"


Zhi Shu's eyes began to water, her tone of voice trembling as she mentioned Xiao Shuxiang's name. He looked at Yi Wen and could not stop being agitated if this girl had not given an answer.


Yi Wen shook his head slowly and in a weak voice he said, "Zhi Shu. You need to start making coffins now,"


"What?" Zhi Shu was shocked, "Yi Wen..! Don't scare me. Whatchu mean? Can't you save my brother?"


"Yi Wen ..." Ling Qing Zhu froze. He was taken aback and immediately set his eyes on the spot where Xiao Shuxiang who was still lying unconscious.


"I'm sorry," Yi Wen tried to speak, "I'm not strong anymore.."


Ling Qing Zhu was unwilling to believe this girl's words. He approached his Guardian Protector and gently patted Xiao Shuxiang's hand. His voice was calm as he woke the charming young man up.


"Shuxiang?" Ling Qing Zhu was just about to hold onto the shoulder of his Guardian Guard when Zhi Shu suddenly dropped her own body and sobbed bitterly.


"Brother Xiao..!" Zhi Shu hugged Xiao Shuxiang's body, she cried loudly at the chest of her Highness Brother and made Ling Qing Zhu stunned.


"Brother Xiao..! You have to wake up, you can't be like this..! I haven't even told you that I'm proposed." Zhi Shu shook his brother's body and sobbed, "You must wake up. Come wake..! Please, please wake up.."


Zhi Shu gasped as his back was suddenly rubbed by someone. He turned his head and found out that this figure who was calming him was Ling Qing Zhu. Her crying came back loud and she said, "Miss Ling! You should be crying too! Aren't you sad to see my brother?"


"............. I'm sad,"


Zhi Shu considers herself to be a tender-hearted and very affectionate girl. He could shed tears in just three breaths and cry out. But what is he witnessing this?!


Ling Qing Zhu was clearly the wife of her fellow-schoolmates, but let alone cry - these white-haired girls did not even look sad at all. The only thing that appeared on the look on the face of the figure in front of him was the calmness of the icy iceberg.


"You're a monster ..." Zhi Shu said, "Can't you have the slightest empathy with my Brother Xiao? He is already ... It's gone."


"Hand Shuxiang is still warm," Ling Qing Zhu voiced calmly. "You don't hug her hard. He's gonna be in pain,"


"Miss Ling ..." Zhi Shu did not know what to say. He was surprised to hear this girl's words, but there was a speck of his heart that seemed to be annoyed at Ling Qing Zhu's figure.


On the other hand, Yi Wen who saw this situation appeared to show a sullen face. He was actually lying to witness Ling Qing Zhu's reaction if he said that Xiao Shuxiang was not saved. But what happens is beyond its expressiveness.


Yi Wen wanted to see Ling Qing Zhu cry and feel such a strong loss, but it was precisely Zhi Shu's reaction that was even more frenzied. On the other hand, his own target seemed very calm.


Yi Wen was about to open his voice when the sudden sneezing sound of Xiao Shuxiang shocked everyone. Zhi Shu who was close to Xiao Shuxiang was hit by a sneezing spurt from the young man.


Zhi Shu rubbed his face, "Brother Xiao. You're such a slob. Good thing you're so handsome, if not ... I'll definitely strangle you."


Both of Xiao Shuxiang's eyes began to open slowly. His initial gaze was blurry, but he could still hear the voice from Zhi Shu. He began to see clearly.


Xiao Shuxiang's forehead shriveled slightly, he was helped to get up by Ling Qing Zhu and then grimaced slightly. He was amazed by the people around him.


"You okay?" Ling Qing Zhu asked in a soft tone of voice.


"Mn, but why are you all here? Where is old man-I mean Elder Chen now?"


"Brother Xiao," Zhi Shu opened his voice. "Didn't you remember what happened to you?"


"What?" Xiao Shuxiang astonished.


"You're about to die," Yi Wen wiped the blood on the corner of her lips before starting to jump up and tightly hugged Xiao Shuxiang's body. He made Zhi Shu and Ling Qing Zhu flinch.


"I'm so worried about you, you know~" Yi Wen said weakly, "I don't think I can save you. You ... If you don't exist, I don't want to live either."


"Yi Wen, tight. Please stay away a little. Give me some space, okay?" Xiao Shuxiang did not understand what was going on. He said, "What are you doing here?"


"Of course save you" Zhi Shu said. "Your soul just left and thankfully Brother Wen exists. With his help and also the help of Hu Li, Miss Ling and Young Master Lan, you can finally come back again."


Zhi Shu gasped when she realized something, "Ah. Young Master Lan, I also have to check her condition,"


Xiao Shuxiang punched his forehead, there were some broken and unclear memories. He muttered, "I thought I was just sleeping because I was exhausted..."


"Brother Xiao?" Yi Wen looked at Xiao Shuxiang's facial expression and felt nervous if it turned out that his Forbidden Technique had a bad impact on this young man.


"My head is just a little sore," Xiao Shuxiang asked that Yi Wen not worry and that this girl should go to clean up.


Ling Qing Zhu gave the water he took to his Guardian Guardians. Xiao Shuxiang smiled behind his slightly pale face and took the water his White Cat gave him.


On the other hand, Lan Guan Zhi was beginning to wake up. His condition was a little similar to Xiao Shuxiang's. He also felt pain in his head and there were some memories overlapping with each other.


Zhi Shu brought water to Lan Guan Zhi and asked the condition of the young man in white clothes. Lan Guan Zhi answered kindly and gasped when she heard such a loud voice.


Xiao Shuxiang also heard him and then asked, "What is going on outside?"


Ling Qing Zhu shook his head slowly, "Don't know. Elder Chen Duan Shan and Hu Li went to check on him, but until now they had not returned."


Ling Qing Zhu gasped when Xiao Shuxiang suddenly woke up, "Where are you going?"


"If elder Chen and Hu Li have not returned, then there must be something. I'll see it,"


Yi Wen gasped, "But you still need a break."


"You think I'm a kid? I've gotten better now," Xiao Shuxiang turned to his good friend and said, "Lan Zhi? You're okay, right?"


"Mn," Lan Guan Zhi nodded slowly and then woke up. He and his good friend walked out followed by Yi Wen, Zhi Shu and Ling Qing Zhu.
