It wasn't a problem for Xiao Chen to handle one person but facing these many people put him in an awkward situation. Moreover, their sword formation was formidable and his hands were bound for fear of injuring them.
The dresses of more than a dozen girls, all at the peak of their youth, fluttered in the wind. Out of nowhere, fragrance permeated the woods. Xiao Chen knew he couldn't let down his guard or he would fall into a precarious situation. He tried explaining to the girls as he defended himself. However, the girls refused to listen and continued attacking him.
"Pervert! Don't even think of leaving this place today!" one of the girls yelled as she thrust her sword. "s.e.xual deviant! Today, you'll be buried in the Falling Flowers Valley!" another cried, thrusting her sword.
Xiao Chen endured the fight for about 30 minutes, being in defensive mode the entire time. These girls stood no chance if he wanted to fight back. Even so, they stubbornly persisted while continuously blasting him for being a pervert.
This angered him. First, no one came to receive him even though he had been yelling for some time outside the valley. Now, these girls were indiscriminately attacking him. He was a decent and upstanding man, yet was humiliatingly dubbed a pervert here. It was outrageous!
Xiao Chen hailed from an affluent family and learned literature from his mother since he was a child. He could be considered an educated, well-mannered person. However, these girls were scolding and berating him. He couldn't help getting irritated. With a single palm attack, he sent a long sword aimed at him flying and said indignantly, "I'm an upstanding and honorable man! In what way do I resemble a pervert?!"
"In every way! You even sound like a pervert!" the girl closest to him shouted. Simultaneously, another sword flew toward him.
Her sword was startlingly fast and nimble. It arrived in front of Xiao Chen's face in the blink of an eye while he was talking, catching him off guard. He hastily slanted his body, causing the arrow to narrowly brush past his chest. This was becoming dangerous. The girl who tried to stab him failed to conserve her power in time and fell into his arms. However, her remaining force didn't dissipate because of the collision.
Seeing as the girl was about to crash to the ground, Xiao Chen grabbed her. Unexpectedly, he missed and caught her belt instead.
She fell to the ground as a ripping sound tore through the air. With the belt in Xiao Chen's hand, her clothes were nearly untied. The girl swiftly pulled her clothes close and covered her body. She was so ashamed that she wanted to crawl into a hole.
Xiao Chen didn't think things would turn out like this. He was merely trying to help. He hastily said, "I didn't intend to disrespect you. I'm just…" For a moment, he didn't know what he should say. Seeing this, the other girls yelled, "And you dare say you're not a pervert!"
Li Muxue, who stood on the sidelines, also became angry after seeing this. She produced a sword out of nowhere and yelled, "Pervert! Take this!" She thrust her sword at him.
Xiao Chen was puzzled. Why was Li Muxue attacking him as well? The girls were stunned as well and wondered, "Why are the two perverts fighting among themselves?"
A burst of bright laughter emerged from the fringes of the sky right then, the laughter harboring a profoundly deep power. The treetops shook with the force of the sound, causing the leaves to fall to the ground. Then came a man's voice. "How have you been, my fellow junior sisters? Did you keep me in your thoughts?"
The girls immediately turned pale after hearing this voice and swiftly gathered into a tight group. Out of nowhere, a gale swept the ground. Aside from the flower petals being swept into the gale, the girls' skirts also billowed with the wind.
The girls immediately pulled their skirts close, prompting another burst of laughter. Two figures appeared atop a tree, both looking like they were 27 or 28. One was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt and the other a black s.h.i.+rt. They were leering at the girls.
Only then did the girls realized that everything was a misunderstanding. These two were the true perverts, the Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld!
The white-s.h.i.+rted one was named Ji Wulang and the black-s.h.i.+rted one was named Ji Wuhuan. Both had ruined countless girls and no one in this area was unfamiliar with them. Some time ago, they even announced that they would come on this day to marry all the Heartless Palace disciples.
One of the girls cried, "Perverts, how dare you come and provoke the Heartless Palace!" Even though she kept her head high and chest out, she had obviously lost some of the ferocity she showed to Xiao Chen.
Ji Wulang laughed heartily. "My junior sisters, come with us and you'll live in a place that resembles a paradise. It's better than staying here, keeping that old hag company, and cutting off your feelings or whatever, isn't it?"
Indignant after hearing him mock their master, the girls immediately formed a sword formation. Ji Wulang laughed again. Then, he noticed Xiao Chen and smiled at him. "I see that you're also one of us. Nice, very nice…" Before finis.h.i.+ng his sentence, he spotted the nearby Li Muxue and his eyes instantly gleamed.
For years, he had gone around deflowering girls but this was his first time meeting a girl as beautiful as a fairy. He wanted nothing more than to kidnap her. Beside him, Ji Wuhuan took notice as well. He immediately said, "I saw her first! You can't steal her!" With a dip of his toe, he flew toward Li Muxue.
"Who said finders are keepers?" Worried that Ji Wuhuan would get the girl first, Ji Wulang instantly chased after him.
"So you two are the reason I was inexplicably besieged by a bunch of mad women," Xiao Chen thought, "Now you even dare to disregard me and attempt to kidnap Muxue." His figure went out of focus before swiftly reappearing in front of Li Muxue. He thrust his palms at the same time, launching two shadows of golden dragons.
Two earth-shattering palm forces, accompanied by dragon's cries, nearly shook the entire woods. The Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld was so preoccupied with grabbing Li Muxue that they neglected to guard against Xiao Chen. The palm forces slammed into them and sent them flying.
The dragon's cries gradually weakened but its remaining power was still breathtaking. The girls were stunned to discover how strong Xiao Chen was. They realized that he could have easily taken their lives earlier.
Xiao Chen sneered. "Stop making a fuss here! Scram!" He considered chasing away the two men to be a favor to the Heartless Palace. This would make it easier for him to persuade Huashang to return to the Jade Qing Sect.
The Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld landed on the ground and glared daggers at him. "Good job, kid! You refuse the path to heaven, choosing to barge into the gates of h.e.l.l instead!" Their True Energy quaked in unison, reducing the trees nearby into dust.
Xiao Chen was startled to learn that they were Core Forming Realm cultivators. That meant he had simply caught them off guard earlier. He snapped into focus to prevent the two from attacking him simultaneously. While he could easily handle one Core Forming Realm cultivator, dealing with two at the same time was much more challenging.
Ji Wulang said, "I'll capture the girl; you fight this kid!" Ji Wuhuan swiftly retorted. "Who gave you the right to decide? You fight the kid; I'll capture the girl!"
It was obvious from their conversation that they didn't fear Xiao Chen at all. In the end, Ji Wulang gave up arguing. "Fine! You better remember to keep the girl alive at night!" He transformed into a drawn-out light and charged at Chen Xiao.
Xiao Chen didn't notice when a long sword appeared in Ji Wulang's hand. Ji Wulang waved the sword, launching a nearly 10 Chinese feet-long saber radiance that cast a blinding light over the woods. Xiao Chen, knowing that this attack would be a strong one, dodged sideways and narrowly avoided the saber radiance. The saber ended up slas.h.i.+ng down quite a few large trees.
Petals swirled in the air. On the ground was a dent made by the saber. The attack of a Core Forming Realm cultivator must not be underestimated. On the other side, Ji Wuhuan was moving toward Li Muxue. Knowing that the situation was worsening, Xiao Chen summoned the Blood Lotus Demon Blade. The sight of the eerie blood-red blade gave Ji Wulang a fright.
Xiao Chen could perfectly command the blade now. With an upward thrust of the blade, a blood-red light struck Ji Wuhuan's back. Ji Wuhuan was so close to capturing Li Muxue when he felt a strange force attacking him from behind. Swiftly, he turned his body and shoved his palms forward.
The two forces collided, the aftershock causing the nearby petals to rain down. The Heartless Palace disciples nearby felt a jolt in their heart. They believed that these two were on par with each other.
What they didn't know was how strenuous it was for Xiao Chen to use the Mystic Cyan Cultivation Method against the Core Forming Realm cultivator. It wouldn't be advantageous for him if this battle continued. He yelled at the girls, "Where did all the fierceness you showed me earlier go?!"
The girls recovered their senses. Since Xiao Chen was here to help them, how could they watch without doing anything? Seeing his earth-shattering twin palm attacks earlier made them believe that he could easily deal with the Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld.
The girls swiftly undo their sword formation and charged at the Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld. The storm of sword radiances was blindingly bright, giving Xiao Chen a breather. He rapidly moved toward Li Muxue to protect her.
Li Muxue was casting sword spells with her left hand and wielding her sword across her chest with her right hand. "You don't have to worry about me. Focus on defeating the enemies."
Only then did Xiao Chen notice that she was emanating a strong aura. He was. .h.i.t by the realization that while his cultivation was rapidly improving, she wasn't lagging behind either. It was simply his longtime habit of protecting those around him. Had Ji Wuhuan rashly try and capture her earlier, he might even end up getting injured.
Following this realization, he calmed down and his worries dissipated. He inserted the Blood Lotus Demon Blade into the ground and started casting spells to produce seals. A formidable aura emerged from within him and spread to his surroundings, leading the flora around him to shake incessantly.
The others also sensed this frightening aura. The Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld looked at him in alarm and said in unison, "Stop him now!" Their figures disappeared as they aimed for Xiao Chen.
With a cold gaze, Li Muxue cast a spell with her left hand as she thrust her sword with her right hand. Instantly, a sword radiance cut through the air. Even though it didn't injure the duo, it caught them by surprise and considerably slowed their movements.
The sky, initially cloudless for thousands of miles, was abruptly overrun by a sea of dark clouds. The wide expanse of dark clouds, with its lightning flashes and rolling thunder, hung over their heads. Out of the blue, a dragon poked its head from within the clouds. It looked disdainfully at the living things below out of the corner of its eye. Xiao Chen had unleashed the third style of the Dragon Roar Palm, the Dragon's Wrath.
The Heartless Palace disciples were overwhelmed with shock and fright after seeing the dragon's head that had appeared without warning. The Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld also sensed this terrifying force at last. They moved swiftly to launch a ferocious attack on Xiao Chen. Right then, the gargantuan dragon in the sky roared in anger and dived down with its entire body.
The flora gave in to the tremendous force before the dragon had even reached the ground, all of them turning into powder. The girls found it hard to breathe. The Fiend Duo of the Northern Underworld was even more astonished. Despite their intention to dodge, it was evidently too late for them to do so.
