Seven Sword Deity, Chief of the Six Divisions, Authority of the Holy Palace, Yama, Demi-Saint of the Jiang clanâŠ
âWas he planning to use a net to catch all of the above?â
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
It was really hard to imagine what were on the minds of Water Ghost and Bazhunâan, the top chess masters of the continent, if they would not talk to him face-to-face!
They dared to cover so many experts in the deep sea. Were they not afraid of accidents? Only the Saint Servant has such a big deal, right?
The battle between the Saints of the Yunlun Mountain Range had just barely ended. Xu Xiaoshou thought that the Saint Servant would take a break, but he did not expect that these incidents would occur, one after another. They did not give anyone any time to take a breather.
Now that he thought about itâŠ
The commotion that he caused at the First Pavilion in the Sky had indeed been too mild.
Yama and the other Dark Powersâ actions and style seemed more like a joke when compared to the Saint Servantâs higher-ups.
If he really wanted to cause trouble, it would have to depend on the Saint Servantâs higher-ups!
âI roughly understand the plan. Iâll act according to the circumstances. Do you have any other defensive treasures for me?â Xu Xiaoshou asked from a distance.
âNo!â Water Ghost was angered to the point of laughter. âHow can you still have the cheek to ask me for something? Iâve already given you my Holy Emperor Dragon Scale!â
âWasnât it said that if people were shameless, the world would be invincible?â
When the safety of his insignificant life was at stake, Xu Xiaoshou did not stand on ceremony. He spoke in a formal manner:
âSenior with a noble heart, could it be that youâre still holding a grudge over the trivial matters from before?â
âThis is a blasphemous scheme. If Iâm not careful, it might really turn into a slaughter of saints. Is it wrong for me to ask for more life-saving means? Iâm only a Master stage!â
âMoreover, I have the means to save lives. That little girl of mine⊠oh, I mean my Junior Sister, is from the Lei family bloodline!
âWhat if something should happen to her? You should at least give her something like the Holy Emperor Dragon Scale as a protective amulet, right?â
After a pause, Xu Xiaoshou thought of many things. âMoreover, as a senior Saint Servant, itâs not asking too much for you to give my Junior Sister a greeting gift, right? After all, sheâs the second disciple of the Saint Servant. Have you forgotten about those few games of chess?â
Water Ghost : ââŠâ
âKid, where did you get that mouth from?â
He seemed to have been convinced and lapsed into silence. It was only after a long while that he spoke up.
âWhat you said does make senseâŠâ
âThereâs a chance?â
Xu Xiaoshou had only given it a try, but he didnât expect Water Ghost to really agree to give it to him.
He immediately kept quiet, because he might lose everything if he said too much.
He wouldnât go too far.
Next, he would just wait for the Senior to give him a gift.
Water Ghost laughed silently. Then, he flipped his hand and took out a jade pendant.
He held it in his palm and said,
âI donât have any more Holy Emperor Dragon Scale. Otherwise, you wouldnât have been able to hide until now.â
âI donât have anything ordinary on me either. The other things I have are too valuable. As the saying goes, bribery is a so-called sin! I wonât give it to her, so as to avoid bringing trouble to her.â
âGive this jade pendant to your little girlfriend. Use it as a protective amulet. It can protect her from anyone below the Demi-Saint level. As for anyone above the Demi-Saint level, itâs really up to fate.â
âTsk TskâŠâ Xu Xiaoshou sighed deeply. The reason why he couldnât give it to her was because the gift was too expensive. This was the first time he had heard of such a reason, but he felt that it was true. What was going on?
âA protective amulet?â
âIt could withstand a Demi-Saintâs attack?â
âHmm, that was good too.â
He could hold on to it for his Junior Sister. Perhaps, it would come in handy in the future.
As for whether Water Ghost would use this jade pendant to track him down so that he could take revenge, Xu Xiaoshou had thought about it.
However, he felt that no matter how despicable Water Ghost was, he would not go to such an extent.
Moreover, Water Ghostâs status was actually quite high. It was just that he had met Xu Xiaoshou and seemed to have been pulled down a little. It was likely that he would not be willing to do such a contemptible thing.
âThrow it further away.â Xu Xiaoshou motioned from afar.
Water Ghost sneered. He said, âWhy? Now that you think about it, are you afraid of me? You donât even dare to come over and take it personally. Your relationship with your little girlfriend is still so distant?â
âLittle Junior Sister!â Xu Xiaoshou snapped. He thought to himself, âYou actually learned how to goad me.â
âHowever, if I come out and take the treasure personallyâŠâ
âI wonât die, right?â
Xu Xiaoshou seriously suspected that Water Ghost wanted to use this trick to take revenge on him. He then summoned a portrait clone and threw it into the deep sea.
âBang!â
Water Ghost did not even raise his head. With a single finger, he ended the life of the portrait clone. He said with a smile, âThis is too disrespectful. You used a dummy to deal with the item given by a Senior? Do you still want the amulet for your little girlfriend?â
âDamn you to hellâŠâ Xu Xiaoshou was so angry that his teeth ached, but looking at the amulet, he couldnât bear to leave it.
At such a crucial moment, the life of his Junior Sister was at stake! How could he not take it?
Forget it!
If he wanted to take revenge, so be it!
Gritting his teeth, Xu Xiaoshou decided to make an appearance.
Boom!
In the deep sea, Water Ghost saw a golden light in the distance, and then a huge Golden Giant descended.
This Giantâs body was covered with a violent Sword Energy field, which slashed away endlessly. On its back was a ferocious Taotie Beast Head, which constantly swallowed the surrounding water.
It held four swords in its left hand, and the famed Flame Python sword in its right hand. Step by step, it made its way over.
âIs it necessaryâŠâ
Water Ghost was stunned for a moment.
âHow afraid of death should he be, to be on guard to such an extent?â
âIt was just a protective amulet. Why did he have to transform into such a ghastly form and be so fully armed?â
âThe main point is that your weapon is useless. If I really wanted to lay a hand on you, would you still be able to hide under the deep sea?â
Water Ghost was speechless as he stared at the Golden Giant walking over with such heavy steps. Even though the aura of the Golden Giant was immense, it could not suppress him in the slightest.
âCan you walk a bit faster.â Water Ghost was waiting impatiently for it.
âOh.â The Berserk Giant immediately nodded. He held the two morphed sword forms and ran over.
âPfft!â
This scene was too comical. Water Ghost could not help but laugh out loud.
He raised his hand and held the jade pendant up, waiting for the Golden Giant to come and take it.
The Berserk Giant that Xu Xiaoshou had transformed into stopped when he got close. He said hesitantly, I canât hold back this âClose-bounds Force Fieldâ. It might hurt youâŠâ
âCut the crap. Can you kill me with that little ability of yours?â Water Ghost sneered.
Xu Xiaoshou did not dare to withdraw his âClose-bounds Force Fieldâ either. He immediately took a step forward.
âChi Chi ChiâŠâ
Within the Close-bounds Force Field, the endless Sword Energy cut through Water Ghostâs body in an instant.
However, the other party was not hurt at all. It was as if the ocean contained a hundred rivers. It took the full brunt of the strikes from the Close-bounds Force Field, but there was no blood.
His body was like the jade pendant in his handâŠ
Xu Xiaoshou could see it through his âPerceptionâ. No matter how dense the cutting power of the Close-bounds Force Field was, Water Ghost would always find an opening. Before he got injured, he would disintegrate slightly or shift his position slightly to avoid the attack.
In essence, the Close-bounds Force Field was attacking him crazily, but he had not been hit at all!
âHis reactive force is too scaryâŠâ
Xu Xiaoshou was shocked.
Water Ghostâs battle awareness was simply at a terrifying level!
âIs this the true strength of a Higher void level and Water-type Upanishad wielder?â
âNo..â
This was just the tip of the iceberg!
âWhat are you waiting for, take it!â Water Ghost could even make a gesture with his mouth within the Close-bounds Force Field. His body was constantly splitting apart, and he was completely unharmed.
âHuâŠâ
Xu Xiaoshou let out a heavy breath. He put the Flame Python back into his Yuan Mansion and used his left hand to grab the small jade pendant.
âXiu!â
At this moment, a strange sound came from behind him.
Xu Xiaoshouâs âPerceptionâ saw that another Water Ghost had appeared behind him.
This Water Ghost clone held the Sea Godâs Trident and raised it up with a ferocious expression. He then ruthlessly smashed it downward. The direction he aimed at was precisely at the Berserk Giantâs butt!
âReceived sneak attack, passive points + 1.â
The information bar immediately popped up.
âDong DongâŠâ
The sound of the Holy Emperor Dragon Scaleâs heartbeat also increased slightly.
However, Xu Xiaoshou did not immediately disappear after receiving the jade pendant. Instead, after letting out a strange cry, he wanted to cover his butt.
âYouâre launching a covert attack?!â
With a bang, before he could cover his butt with his hand, the Sea Godâs Trident had already lashed out.
The intense pain caused the Berserk Giant to disintegrate. Xu Xiaoshou reverted to his original form and was sent flying like a cannonball. There was even a bloody scar on his butt in the deep sea.
âIt hurts so much, it hurts so much. This really hurts to death. I was almost beaten to death. How terrifyingâŠâ
Water Ghost shook his arm that was still slightly numb from the impact. The comfortable feeling in his heart that he derived from the hit had yet to dissipate. After he heard his cries, his entire face was filled with black lines.
âGet lost!â He looked at the young man who was still covering his butt, but his wound had already healed.
âWell, thank you senior for this amulet. My Junior Sister will definitely like it!â Xu Xiaoshou chuckled and quickly left.
