She went out early in the morning?" Huang Xiaolong did not took it to heart when he heard that. He had known that Yao Chi liked shopping.
Thus, Huang Xiaolong sat in the main hall, sipping tea as he waited for Yao Chi to return. This tea was rare in the Divine World. It was called the Bright Moon Tea and its leaves could only be brewed in the spiritual spring water. The teaâs refreshing taste lingered on Hung Xiaolongâs taste buds after every sip.
Huang Xiaolong suddenly thought of his parents from his past life; both of them had loved drinking tea the most.
Huang Xiaolong wondered if he would ever have a chance to return to Earth to where he had lived in his past life. For a moment, he felt a strong desire to bring them some of this several thousand years old tea to taste.
Huang Xiaolong couldnât help but smile as he pictured their shocked faces on their first sip.
One hour soon passed by as Huang Xiaolong waited in the main hall. Seeing that Yao Chi had yet to return, he took out his communication talisman. But just as he was about to send Yao Chi a message, a flustered Barbarian God Sect female disciple ran into the hall. She was momentarilly stunned at seeing Huang Xiaolong, but the next second she was overjoyed. She cried out anxiously, "Young Lord, Sister Yao Chi has met with trouble!"
During the time Yao Chi had stayed at Barbarian God Sect, she had grown close to several female core disciples. Therefore, Huang Xiaolong had brought them over to Fortune City to accompany Yao Chi.
However, these Barbarian God Sect female core disciplesâ cultivation was not high and it ranged between Seventh Order to Eighth Order Heavenly God Realm.
"Trouble? What happened?" Huang Xiaolongâs heart sank. His divine sense spread outward from the Myriad Gods Manor in four directions instantly as he asked the female core disciple, "Where is she?"
"At Old Star Street!" she answered swiftly and then added, "When Sister Yao Chi bought some alchemy materials from a shop on Old Star Street, they accused her of stealing their chaos spiritual herb Sword Qi Grass; clamoring to strip off her clothes in order to check!" Before she could finish her sentence, Huang Xiaolongâs figure had disappeared from the main hall in a flicker.
...
Inside a shop called Righteous on Old Star Street, Yao Chi and four Barbarian God Sect female core disciples were glaring at the group opposite to them in indignance.
An obscure light flitted in the shop owner Ma Yihaiâs eyes as he watched Yao Chiâs angry expression, especially when her bosom moved as her breathing quickened in anger.
"Have you thought it over clearly then? Whether you will strip naked and let us check if you stole our things or will you obediently follow me to the room and let me check it myself?!" Ma Yihai smiled lecherously at Yao Chi, "Donât worry, if we determine that you did not steal our shopâs chaos spiritual herb Sword Qi Grass, weâll let you leave!"
"You... are despicable!" Yao Chi glared at Ma Yihai, "All of you will regret this!"
"Regret?" Ma Yihai didnât believe in Yao Chiâs warning at all. "Iâd like to know what regret tastes like, can you tell me what it tastes like? By the way, I forgot to tell you that I am Ma Family Islandâs core disciple. You have three more minutes to consider, after three minutes, Iâll let you know what regret taste like!"
âMa Family Island?â Yao Chi was inwardly surprised.
Although Ma Family Island did not stand shoulder to shoulder with Dragon Origin Island or Twin Cities Island, the island ranked in the top thirty among tens of thousands of islands of Fortune Mainland.
Ma Yihai detected the change in Yao Chiâs expression and understood Yao Chi knew about Ma Family Island. Ma Yihai felt proud and exerted more pressure on Yao Chi, "How is it going to be? Do you know how to decide now?"
Just as Yao Chi opened her mouth to retort, an icy voice rang in the shop, "No need to consider.
Ma Yihai and his cronies were taken aback but Yao Chiâs group of women was overjoyed when they heard this voice.
"Xiaolong!" Yao Chi was pleasantly surprised looking at Huang Xiaolong who had appeared beside her stealthily. "How come you...?"
"How come I appear here?" Huang Xiaolong finished Yao Chiâs question and chided, "Didnât I tell you to take Xie Xuan, Xie Ying, and others with you when you leave the manor? But you simply donât listen!"
Looking at Huang Xiaolongâs angry face, Yao Chi dared not say anything to refute him. She timidly shook his arm and softly apologized, "I will listen to you in the future."
"No wonder you sounded so righteous even after stealing our chaos spiritual herb Sword Qi Grass since thereâs someone backing you, hmph!" Ma Yihai jeered as his gaze fell on Huang Xiaolongâs robe. "Fortune Gate inner disciple?" Ma Yihai pointed his finger at Huang Xiaolongâs face, "Punk, even if you are a Fortune Gate inner disciple, interfering in our Ma Family Islandâs business will only lead to negative consequences for you! So, get lost now!"
Huang Xiaolong was clad in Fortune Gateâs inner disciple robe.
An identity as a âFortune Gate inner discipleâ held a lot of respect in other peopleâs eyes, where these people would go to lengths to flatter them; but on the other hand, a Fortune Gate inner disciple held no such importance in Ma Yihaiâs eyes.
Ma Yihaiâs disrespectful attitude towards a Fortune Gate inner disciple stemmed from the fact that one of the Ma Familyâs Ancestors was a Fortune Gate Grand Elder. Not just that,there several Fortune Gate Elders who were from the Ma Family.
Then again, he alone was more than enough to deal with a mere inner disciple. He knew quite a few of Fortune Gateâs talented disciples, including the core disciples.
Ma Yihai himself was a mid-Fifth Order Ancient God Realm master.
"Get lost?" A devilish smile spread across Huang Xiaolongâs face. In the next second, a streak of light flashed and others saw Ma Yihai screeching in pain as one of his arms was cut off by Huang Xiaolong. Blood spurted out nonstop from his severed shoulder.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Right from the moment Huang Xiaolong had heard Ma Yihai accuse Yao Chi of stealing and had demanded her to strip naked, he had been a dead man in Huang Xiaolongâs mind.
"Tell me, who told you to do this?" Huang Xiaolongâs eyes were emotionless. He felt there was something strange to this incident, and he was sure Ma Yihai was instructed by someone.
"You...!" A little panic flitted in Ma Yihaiâs eyes, but he soon regained his composure and glared venomously at Huang Xiaolong with a tinge of bloodlust, "How dare you...?"
But Ma Yihai couldnât finish what he wanted to say as another streak of sword qi flashed. Ma Yihaiâs scream shook the shop as Huang Xiaolong severed his other arm.
"Speak." Huang Xiaolongâs gaze turned icier. He did not bother to scour Ma Yihaiâs soul, as Huang Xiaolong wanted to vent out the rage filled inside his heart.
Yao Chi and Li Lu both were Huang Xiaolongâs reverse scale and those who dared to touch his reverse scale must prepare themselves to experience his wrath!
The shopâs guards distinctively felt Huang Xiaolongâs killing intent, but they did not dare to make any move. They had just witnessed Huang Xiaolong easily cut off Ma Yihaiâs arms.
"I #Ã&* your mother!" Ma Yihai endured the throbbing pain coursing through his body and swore loudly, "Iâm going to annihilate your whole family!"
Huang Xiaolong sneered and in a flash of sword qi, Ma Yihaiâs legs were cut off from his thigh.
Yao Chi closed her eyes and turned away.
"Iâm giving you one last chance." Huang Xiaolong pointed the tip of his sword at Ma Yihai.
"I-I, I will t-tell you-u, som-someone gave me-e ten b-billion to, to do this." Ma Yihai screamed, "That person was completely obscured in black, I donât know who that person was."
Ten billion was no small sum for Ma Yihai, not to mention his target was only a weak Heavenly God Realm. That person had also told him that Yao Chi had no backing, therefore, Ma Yihai had agreed without much thought.
Ma Yihai had thought that a Heavenly God Realm cultivator would have nothing but a weak backing, incase they had one. Therefore, he was very confident in his ability to smoothly complete this task.
Never had he imagined a Fortune Gate inner disciple to be so powerful, who could easily cut off his limbs.
"What is going on here?" The group leader of the Fortune Gate law enforcement patrol disciples shouted as his group arrived at the scene.
Hope rose to Ma Yihaiâs face when he saw the patrol group leader and he shouted "Younger Brother Peng Rong, save me! This pair of adulterous couple brazenly rushed into my shop in broad daylight and tried to steal my shopâs herb elixirs... they even cut off my arms and legs!"
