Chapter 58: Not All Ice Is Cold


With each step he took, the cold Qi would condense around him. Cold Qi also coated the surface of his sword, forming a thin layer of mirror.


Xiao Qian smiled as she saw her opponent's movements begin to slow down. As strong as anyone faced the cold Qi, it was still very difficult to avoid the chill seeping into the body. If the cold is not removed immediately, the frozen poison will first freeze the meat and eventually spread throughout the body.


Xiao Qian's opponent was Fang Jiao, a lightning element practitioner. The lightning element was actually enough to protect Fang Jiao's entire body from the frozen poison, but it weakened her combat prowess by up to 50%.


The Qi that Fang Jiao had was not enough to clear the frozen poison and continue the match. This was what Xiao Qian had expected, so he did not need to use much effort.


"Your abilities are amazing. But this is not enough, First Lightning Portrait!" Fang Jiao praised Xiao Qian's manner, before launching a counterattack. Blue lightning snatched from his sword and broke the entire cold Qi of Xiao Qian.


"Second Lightning Portrait!"


Uncompleted, two bolts of blue lightning descended from the sky and struck where Xiao Qian was standing. Vibration from loud explosions even reached the bleachers. Fortunately Xiao Qian had already jumped back so as to avoid the lightning strike.


From the dust fog, Fang Jiao ran towards Xiao Qian while holding her sword. From his speed, it was likely that he had already gotten rid of the frozen poison present in his body.


In an instant, Fang Jiao was already before Xiao Qian. Xiao Qian raised her sword to clash directly with Fang Jiao.


The loud clanging sound accompanied by shock waves spread throughout the arena. The flying dust could not block the audience's view of what was happening in the arena.


Xiao Qian's sleeves fluttered, and a strand of strange energy flowed through her sword towards Fang Jiao's sword. Fang Jiao immediately jumped back to avoid the strange energy flow. But a strange energy had already entered his hand through the sword he was holding.


"Araghh!What's that doing?!" Fang Jiao had thrown his sword and was holding his 'frozen' right hand'.In the opposite direction, Xiao Qian giggled amusedly.


"I froze your hands.Of course," Xiao Qian replied lightly, as if there was nothing wrong with her words.


The Xiao clan had a blood-striped ancestor of a dragon. And the strange energy that Xiao Qian injected contained a hint of dragon power. With the help of her cold Qi, she froze the meridians in Fang Jiao's hands and let the dragon energy run amok.


Thus, even though Fang Jiao's hand seemed to be frozen, it was actually being burned from the inside. If he does not get help quickly, his hands will be completely burned.


Fang Jiao now fell to his knees. Slowly he began to feel the pain in his right hand disappear. Obviously this is not a good sign. When the pain completely disappeared, it was impossible to feel his hand back.


It was because the raging dragon power was burning meridians and nerves. Fang Jiao would have trouble using his hands again if his nerves were burned. He had no choice but to give up.


"I surrender. Now, how about you give me my hand back?" Fang Jiao was still grimacing in pain.Xiao Qian actually did not have the heart. But this is a competition, the strong deserve to win.


Xiao Qian tossed out a jade bottle that Fang Jiao had caught with her left hand."There is the Reformation Pill. Once your meridians recover, you won't have any other problems."


Fang Jiao without hesitation immediately pressed down on the pill that Xiao Qian had given him. A cool feeling started flooding into his hand meridians. The pain of the dragon power slowly subsided, and he was already able to move his hand again freely.


"Newly I know, it turns out that not all ice is cold," Fang Jiao shook her head as she took back the sword she had thrown.
