The road is right under your feet

Chapter 184 White Star Awakens

The long sword in his hand was stained with flames, and he chopped and slashed with it, the sword light carrying the flames.

There were several huge tripods surrounding his body, with flames rising from them, constantly attacking the people around him.

Even if you are not hit and just pass by it, you still cannot escape the fate of being burned.

With the help of Qin Yaer, Zhuo Pingjian ignited a flame barrier in a small area around him, keeping everyone outside the flames.

Someone in the crowd said, "He won't be able to hold on for long before his spiritual power runs out. By then, it won't be too late for us to take action."

"I want to see how long he can hold on." someone responded.

"I bet it won't take a quarter of an hour."

"Haha, then I'll bet half a quarter of an hour."

"..."

Su Shixuan was sweating profusely, but his expression was still calm, with an aura as unshakable as a mountain. He closed one eye and aimed it hard at the person who was trying to approach him.

Fire, Su Shixuan muttered to himself, and suddenly a beam of light was emitted at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, passing closely beside the head of a person approaching this side.

The man's hair stood on end and he felt a sense of fear in his heart.

He immediately slowed down and looked vigilantly at Su Shixuan who was surrounded by flames.

"What are you looking at? Look here! Yes, I'm talking about you."

Zhuo Pingjian raised the flying sword in his hand, made a feint, and stabbed the man directly.

The man didn't expect that Zhuo Pingjian's target was him. By the time he reacted, he only had time to raise a barrier.

His heart was beating like thunder and he stared at the sword in front of him without blinking, fearing that it would be as easy to break through his defense as the beam of light.

One second, two seconds... ten seconds passed, and the long sword was blocked outside. He felt relieved and calm, and was about to knock down the flying sword.

At this moment, a beam of light suddenly passed through his eyebrows.

Zhuo Pingjian raised his eyebrows, winked at Su Shixuan, and said with a sly smile, "Not bad, I give this headshot a ten."

Su Shixuan did not move, and continued to aim at the next target, "Stop joking, be serious."

Zhuo Pingjian grinned, "I am seriously harassing you."

"I'm giving you a chance, aren't I? If your aim was better, they would have all fallen by now."

Su Shixuan sighed, "This is the consequence of not practicing well on weekdays."

Zhuo Pingjian scratched his head. "I have been practicing for quite a while, two hours a day."

His eyes suddenly widened, "Are you talking about yourself?"

Su Shixuan's expression looked a little unnatural. He did spend more time on refining equipment and practicing.

Zhuo Pingjian leaned sideways to avoid the blow on his head, saying, "No way? No way? You didn't practice more?"

Su Shixuan pointed the gun at Zhuo Pingjian, who immediately laughed dryly and said, "I, I, I, I haven't practiced enough, right?"

Su Shixuan tilted the muzzle of his gun, and a beam of light suddenly shot out and hit the crowd on the other side.

Qin Yaer looked at the slight damage on her ring blade, her cheeks puffed up, "Hey, kid, don't fight if you can't hit it."

As she spoke, Qin Yaer waved her hand violently, and the ring blade went straight towards the opponent. The opponent's spiritual weapon was directly broken by the ring blade, rushed straight up, and sank into the flesh.

Qin Yaer retracted the ring blade expressionlessly and looked at the people guarding the gate.

"Little ghost, you will attack with me later and kill them."

Su Shixuan took a few seconds to realize that they were talking about him. He glanced in the direction of the gate and nodded.

Su Shixuan changed back to the fourth-level beast core and started a new round of indiscriminate shooting.

Qin Yaer's eyes flashed with golden light, and nine golden lotus ring blades suddenly lingered around her body. The moment Su Shixuan made his move, eight ring blades also made their move one after another, sweeping past like a ruthless harvester.

No one was left alive wherever he passed.

Suddenly, a chain appeared quietly, swinging away several ring blades.

Those people seemed to come alive and looked at Xie Xu with gratitude.

Qin Yaer narrowed her beautiful eyes, "Thank you Xu."

Xie Xu smiled and said, "Ya'er, why do you have to take it out on them? The highest among them is only at the middle stage of spiritual transformation, and they can't withstand your ring blade."

Qin Yaer snorted coldly, "Since you dare to block my way, you must be prepared to leave your life behind."

"You are right, but as long as you leave the dead man behind, they will not block the road again. Why would you mobilize so many troops just for a dead man?"

Zhuo Pingjian laughed as if he had heard a joke, "Dead man? Do you know who the dead man you are talking about is? How dare you speak so recklessly and humiliate him in public?"

Xie Xu didn't care. "Who is he? What do I have to fear?"

Zhuo Pingjian's eyes were filled with flames as he mocked, "Yes, yes, you, Mr. Xie, are naturally not afraid. I hope your Xie family can be as fearless as you."

Xie Xu laughed, "Arrogant."

"Boy, you will pay the price for your arrogance."

"cost?"

Suddenly, a cold voice was heard and everyone froze.

"Impossible, he...isn't he dead?"

"Who is playing tricks? Get out!"

Different from everyone else's reaction, Su Shixuan was ecstatic because the voice came from behind him.

Bai Xing patted his shoulder and motioned for him to put him down.

Bai Xing appeared in everyone's sight so fresh and lively, his face was rosy and even his lips were a healthy pink.

Hearing the familiar voice, the expression on Zhuo Pingjian's face suddenly changed. He turned around, slid to his knees, and hugged Bai Xing's thighs.

"Sir, I knew you were not dead. They are not human. They bully us. Wuwuwu."

Zhuo Pingjian raised his face with tears and snot. He didn't dare to wipe his face with Bai Xing's robe. He grabbed a corner of his sleeve and wiped his face a few times.

"Sir, not only do they want to kill us, they also want to...disrespect you."

Qin Yaer also smiled, "Yun Xing, you are not dead."

Bai Xing nodded to the others, "Something went wrong during the training. I'm sorry to have made you worried."

As he spoke, he helped Zhuo Pingjian up and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.

Xie Xu looked at the few people chatting and laughing, his face gloomy, and his eyes were fixed on Bai Xing like a poisonous snake.

Bai Xing seemed to sense something, and looked up to meet such a pair of dark eyes, with a half-smile, and his tone gradually became colder, "May I ask this gentleman, what is the price?"

"Alive? Impossible, he's obviously dead!" Someone in the crowd said in disbelief.

"Could it be that he has some precious treasure on him that can bring people back to life?"

"No, I remember that he 'died' after acquiring a martial art. Could it be that the martial art has another secret?" someone recalled.

When everyone heard this, greed was evident in their eyes. "Hand over your skills and spiritual weapons, and we will spare your life!"

"Of course it's a life-threatening price." Xie Xu spoke at this time, "However, if you are willing to hand over your skills and spiritual weapons, I may consider letting your servants and you go."
