Chapter 26: Self-Respect
"Fan, didn't you say you were looking for Ash and that big yellow dog? Why did you lead me to the kitchen?" Zeng Shushu followed behind Zhang Xiaofan and walked into the kitchen chattering endlessly.
Zhang Xiaofan took a closer look towards the kitchen, only to see that this place was unknown how many times more spacious than the kitchen of the Great Bamboo Peak, and the light was much brighter as well, while he paid attention to it, he said with his mouth, "Even though I haven't seen them since early in the morning, I guess it's more than likely right here!"
Zeng Shushu shrugged his shoulders and said: "Impossible, you see the three-eyed monkey as what, that is a heavenly creature, compared with the people have been even worse, how to look at your appearance as a thief as a general, and still gluttonous kind of thief... ah!"
In Zeng Shushu dumbfounded expression, Zhang Xiaofan from the corner of the kitchen behind a jar to pick up the small gray, small gray was carried in mid-air, "squeak" scream more than, and then from the back of the jar ran out of rhubarb, rushed to the two of them barked loudly.
Zhang Xiaofan glanced at Zeng Shushu, who had a crying and laughing look on his face.
Holding Little Ash in his arms, Zhang Xiaofan scolded, "Dead dog, stop barking, want people to come and catch us?"
Big Yellow seemed to understand his words, looking at Little Gray who was shrinking in his arms, the dog's mouth "whimpered" and hummed a few times, and then no sound was heard. Zhang Xiaofan looked around and saw that most of the things were intact, it seemed that the two thieves had not yet gotten their hands on them, so he could not help but be very happy and hurriedly carried Little Gray and walked outside.
Walked two steps, found rhubarb did not follow up, look back, but saw rhubarb clamped tail ran to just after the jar drumming two, and then ran over with a big piece of meat bone in his mouth.
Zhang Xiaofan glared at the little gray in his arms, and the little gray grinned a monkey's mouth, giggling. Zeng Shushu looked on from the side and shook his head.
The duo sneaked out of the kitchen with the monkey dog, fearing that they would be discovered, and that the lifelong stigma could no longer be washed away, and it was not easy to run into the distance, and the duo only breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhang Xiaofan gasped for a while and said, "By the way, I haven't congratulated you just now! Another win."
Zeng Shushu, however, did not care, his eyes only scrutinized the little gray in his arms, said: "That's nothing, anyway, sooner or later will be defeated under the hands of others... Why is the little gray body so dirty ah! You haven't bathed him for a few days?"
Zhang Xiaofan froze for a moment and said, "I've never bathed him."
Zeng Shushu seemed to faint, hitting his forehead with his hand and saying, "You, you, how can you do this to it!"
Zhang Xiaofan was greatly unimpressed in his heart, secretly thinking that this monkey climbed up and down all day long, where could it be washed clean, but looking at Zeng Shushu's heartbroken face, he knew that this person was unbelievable on this issue.
He laughed dryly and digressed, saying: ''By the way, do you know? In tomorrow's third round of the competition, Lu Xueqi's opponent is my senior sister Tian Ling'er!"
Zeng Shushu was really stunned and said, "It's your senior sister! Is that the Tian Ling'er who used the amber vermillion damask?"
"Yes!" Zhang Xiaofan reached over to the head of Little Gray that was climbing onto his shoulder and said, "In the past two days, that Lu Xueqi has had a strong wind, so I'm a little worried about my senior sister."
Zeng Shushu nodded and said, "That's true, other than that, that 'Tianya' handle in Lu Xueqi's hand alone makes it unbearable."
Zhang Xiaofan was a little worried, saying, "Shushu, do you think my senior sister will be in danger, you see Lu Xueqi destroyed her opponent's immortal sword in the first match, and in the second match, I heard that that elder brother of the Long Sect was also injured quite badly!"
Zeng Shushu glared at him and said, "You're too concerned, I see that your senior sister's Dao is much higher than yours, you'd better worry about yourself! After going down that is more powerful than one, according to your own words you even Taiji Xuanqing Dao Jade Qing realm of the third layer has not been cultivated, then not to give people a sword chopped to death ⋯ put the little gray give me a hug."
Zhang Xiaofan hesitated for a moment and handed over the little gray, Zeng Shushu joyfully held it in his arms, but the little gray was greatly dissatisfied, "squeak" scream.
Zhang Xiaofan sighed and said, "You're right, Senior Sister's Dao is profound and beautiful, there are so, so many people who love her, where is my turn to care for her?"
Zeng Shushu hugged Little Ash tightly, his eyes stared straight at her, afraid that if he looked less, he would lose out, and said carelessly under his breath, "It's good that you know, it's better to think about how to save your life in tomorrow. I've told you, tomorrow your opponent, my Feng Hui Feng's Peng Chang senior brother's skill is definitely not comparable to today's Chu Yuhong, especially the Immortal Sword Treasure 'Wu Hook' he practiced, which is made of thousand year old fire copper, powerful!"
Zhang Xiaofan was bitter and worried, saying, "Each and every one of you is full of magic treasures, what can I do?"
Zeng Shushu didn't lift his eyes, still looking at Little Ash, stepping forward, saying, "Little Ash, go back with me, I'll bring you two bunches of bananas, okay? Uh, Little Fan, what did you just say?"
Zhang Xiaofan walked side by side with him and sighed, "I really envy you guys for being able to repel magic treasures, what's that like?"
Zeng Shushu shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just like that, after practicing the immortal sword for a long time, naturally the magic treasure will have some sensation with you, and with this as the basis, to drive the magic treasure with the power of thought and spirit, to go to the sky and enter into the earth, and to open up the mountains and split the sea, that's just as you like it."
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment beside him and said, "Induction, isn't it a cool and silky feeling?"
Zeng Shushu, with both eyes on Little Ash, casually replied, "Not necessarily, it depends on the material of the magic treasure."
Zhang Xiaofan thought about it, but finally shook his head, giving up on the delusion in his own mind, and said, "Shushu, you said that a divine object like Tianya, I don't know how it was built in the first place, the scene must have been spectacular, right?"
Zeng Shushu gave Zhang Xiaofan a strange look and said, "How would I know? It's also my first time seeing this legendary divine object." Saying this, he lowered his head again to look at Little Grey, not caring that Little Grey had an angry face, and stroked Little Grey's fur with an open brow and a smile on his face as he mouthed, "But to say induction ah! In the past, I have read from the ancient books, the magic treasures that are truly connected to the hearts of cultivators are not these so-called divine objects and wonders."
Zhang Xiaofan was surprised, "Then what is it?"
Zeng Shushu said, "It's some magic treasures that are created by refining with the owner's own blood, using blood as a medium, the magic treasures tend to carry a demonic and hostile aura, but with the owner they have the feeling of being connected by blood and flesh. Although the book said that these are evil, and the refining is mostly evil, the right way not to, but these treasures can only be owned by the owner's blood can be driven, unlike these treasures we are now practicing, fell into the hands of the senior high Daoxing will be subdued.......eek!"
Zeng Shushu stopped in his tracks and realized that he was surrounded by no one, looked back, but saw Zhang Xiaofan stopped at some point, standing behind him staring blankly at him, his face was very strange.
Zeng Shushu's heart was strange, saying, "What's wrong, Xiaofan?"
Zhang Xiaofan's body shook and forced a smile, saying, "No, nothing."
Zeng Shushu looked at him one more time, thinking that he was worrying about tomorrow's competition, smiled and walked over to pat his shoulder, saying, "Don't worry! I've already spoken to Senior Brother Peng, for tomorrow's competition, he won't hit you hard, and he'll even let you lose decently, so that you can deliver in front of Master and Mother."
Zhang Xiaofan's appearance seemed distracted, but he still nodded and said, "Oh, thank you very much."
The two of them took a few more steps forward, Zeng Shushu was busy scrutinizing Little Ash in his arms, but Zhang Xiaofan seemed to be full of thoughts and silent.
After a while, small gray seems to be no longer tolerate Zeng Shushu that inhuman gaze, angrily screamed a few times, stretching claws to Zeng Shushu grabbed, Zeng Shushu see from just now began small gray is quite honest, a moment of relaxation of vigilance, cold and was it sneak attack, this time but really can not avoid the past, the white face of the more than a few bruises, pain he let go of his hand at once.
Little gray heavy to get free, happy leaping, but did not return to Zhang Xiaofan side, but scampered to the ground and quickly ran forward, three steps two steps to the front of the two people who are coming to the face, "wind" scampered to the body of a person.
Zhang Xiaofan froze for a moment, raised his eyes to look, only to see that the woman smiled like a flower, standing in the white clouds between the misty, clothes lightly moving, waist red damask, beautiful and unparalleled, it is Tian Ling'er.
His heart immediately surged a burst of joy, was about to speak, suddenly the whole body blood and cold down, cold into the heart, in the Tian Ling'er body, stood a jade tree handsome man, is not Qi Hao and who is the person?
At this time Tian Ling'er was also startled, usually small gray are only wrapped around Zhang Xiaofan, did not expect today suddenly changed nature, and their own intimacy, greatly unexpected.
In fact, in her heart, she also quite liked this smart and clever monkey, at that moment, she stroked the little gray and smiled at the place, "Little Fan, why are you here?"
Zhang Xiaofan was expressionless and said in a low voice, "My friend and I came here for a walk."
Qi Hao, who was standing beside Tian Ling'er, glanced at Zeng Shushu and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he arched his hand and said, "Senior Brother Zeng, we meet again."
Zeng Shushu didn't dare to be slow and returned the greeting, "Senior Brother Qi, how are you."
Tian Ling'er looked at them and was surprised, "Do you guys know each other?"
Qi Hao smiled and said, "Senior Brother Zeng is the beloved son of Senior Uncle Zeng of Feng Hui Peak, his family lineage is profound and his Taoist skills are high, this Seven Veins Tournament is our archenemy!"
Zeng Shushu laughed and said, "Senior Brother Qi, you are famous in Qing Yun, the young disciples under Qing Yun Sect naturally take you as their honor, how would I dare to be reckless!"
Qi Hao laughed out loud and said, "Senior Brother Zeng is too flattering, I wouldn't dare to honor you."
Seeing that Zhang Xiaofan looked a bit strange, Tian Ling'er walked over and said, "Xiaofan, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said, "Senior sister, you're going to compete with Lu Xueqi of Xiaozhu Peak tomorrow, so be careful!"
Tian Ling'er smiled faintly and turned her head towards Qi Hao, Qi Hao smiled without saying anything, Tian Ling'er returned the smile and then turned her head to Zhang Xiaofan and said, "I understand it in my heart, this is not it, Senior Brother Qi's Taoist skills are high and deep, and he is enthusiastic, because he and I have some affinity for each other, he specially asked me to come out to point out some points for me to take in tomorrow's competition!"
Zhang Xiaofan lowered his head, for a long time, and said in an astringent voice: "Elder sister, tomorrow when you are competing, I also happen to be competing with Feng Hui Peak's senior brother Peng, so I can't applaud you, so be careful yourself!"
Tian Ling'er said uncaringly, "It's okay, Xiaofan, father and mother have said that they will go to see my test, and then again..." She glanced at Qi Hao with affection, and added, "Brother Qi will also go to see my test, and with his profound cultivation, and with his guidance, I will definitely not lose. "
Qi Hao laughed from afar, "That I can't guarantee."
Tian Ling'er turned back and glared at him, then she couldn't help but laugh out again, her white jade-like skin was frosty and snowy, slightly translucent with a faint pink color, bright and colorful, almost letting people stare blankly.
Just Zeng Shushu stood aside, but clearly see Zhang Xiaofan's vision face are rapidly dimming down, almost not the slightest anger, can not help but frown.
※※※
The night is already deep, the cold moon hangs high in the sky.
Above the sea of clouds, there is no sound. A lone shadow, wandering in the cold moonlight, in the light clouds between the emptiness, walking aimlessly, walking.
Unconsciously, he walked up the rainbow bridge, and again came to the bay of blue water pool. Horizontal like a mirror, the ripples, reflecting the sky full of stars, all falling into the water in general.
A good view, beautiful.
But this person did not seem to pay the slightest attention to these, only stood at the edge of the water, looking at the water surface, as if recalling something, for a long time, his body suddenly trembled, his hands clenched tightly, looking very painful.
Then, he slowly turned his head, looking towards the dark grove by the Rainbow Bridge, and slowly walked over.
The moonlight shone on Zhang Xiaofan's face, and there were a few moments of desolation.
Shouldn't he, forever, stand in this dark corner, quietly watching others be happy and savoring his own pain!
In the distance, there was a faint sound of footsteps.
Darkness, quietly hibernating in this grove.
"It's so late, what did Senior Sect Master call us here for?" Along with the voice, six figures appeared, Zhang Xiaofan hid in the darkness and was shocked, those were the heads of the six veins of Qing Yun Mountain except for Tongtian Peak, Tian Yiqiu was also within them, the one who spoke was Shang Zhengliang, the head of Chaoyang Peak.
Walking in the forefront of the Cang Song Daoist said, "I heard that today the head of the senior brother has used the psychic technique and the Spirit Dignity to try, I am afraid that there is some discovery, want us to go forward to discuss."
"Spirit Zun" water qilin is the Qing Yun door town mountain spirit beast, the relationship is very great, the people heard are no longer words, face grave, a few moments later, they traveled far away.
When these high people left for a long time, Zhang Xiaofan dared to walk out from the grove, subconsciously looked at the blue water pool, only to see the water surface is calm as usual, that spirit seems to have long been in the water to sleep.
He raised his head to look at the cold moon in the sky in a daze, and was about to go back, but then he reached out and took out the black burning stick from his bosom.
The words of Zeng Shushu in the daytime had given him a great shock, causing him to be astonished, but at the moment, he had no other thoughts in his mind at all, only the image of Senior Sister Ling'er and Qi Hao standing together as a perfect match.
In his heart, it had been like being stabbed by needles, but by now, it had turned numb and empty, as if all three souls and seven spirits had dispersed.
Slowly picking up the burning stick, under the metaphysical blue surface, a small blood red thread was clearly visible, like blood filaments, distributed all over the stick, even in the bead on the top.
Is this my blood?
Zhang Xiaofan thought this in his heart, and the moment he heard Zeng Shushu's words, he almost immediately surged with the urge to throw away this burning stick, however, the ensuing Qi Hao and Tian Ling'er gave him an even bigger shock in his heart, causing him to not care about this so-called evil thing at all anymore.
"Hmph!" He laughed lowly and bitterly, "Even if it's an evil object, it's still an incredibly powerful magic treasure, and how can I have such a good life, worthy of these things, isn't what's with me just an ugly burning stick?"
Icy cold sensation, slowly flooded from the burning stick, wandering in his body, as if comforting him.
"Mana treasure? Mana treasure?"
Zhang Xiaofan clenched his teeth, "What am I, how can I use a magic treasure?" Speaking later, his voice took on a few chokes, and even the cold breath seemed to be startled by this sadness of his, jumping from one feeling to the next, seeming to come alive.
Zhang Xiaofan felt it, but completely disregarded it, only thinking that it was the mountain wind blowing his body cold.
He slowly raised his head, looking at the burning stick in his hand, his mind flooded over the scene when he went to the valley with Tian Ling'er, and for a while it was like a lifetime ago.
The blood filaments in the fire stick's dark green color slowly lit up, as if it was sensing something.
Zhang Xiaofan unintentionally saw it, and his heart giggled and was taken aback, at the same time remembering the words of Zeng Shushu during the day. In his heart, an uncontrollable urge suddenly surged.
Closing his eyes.
In an instant, that cold feeling went all over the body but not the slightest chill, the four silent but deep in the heart was so clear to hear a wild roar, as if under the nine ghosts of countless souls hissing, with endless grievances, rise up.
White bones, blood, roar, bloody!
Zhang Xiaofan opened his eyes with a huff and gasped for air, however, just a moment later, he held his breath.
His hand was spread out flat, his fingers either extended or curled, holding it in the shape of a spell, while the black burning stick had now flown away from his palm and stood in mid-air, its black gas soaring and its green light blazing.
In front of the fire stick, a tree that was originally full of business in front of the grove facing him had completely withered in this moment, with its branches and leaves falling off, as if it had been sucked out of all its life by something in an instant.
For the first time in his life, Zhang Xiaofan felt that he was so close to this burning stick, even though the stick was parked in mid-air, but across this distance, he clearly felt that he was holding it, and that familiar cold aura was unprecedentedly powerful, and in the midst of that, it was as if there was still a thread of inexplicable freshness that was sucked from the black stick and traveled all over his body.
Just at this moment, Zhang Xiaofan behind the distance suddenly came a low whistling, he turned his head in horror, only to see the water waves in the blue water pool suddenly chaotic, seems to be something was disturbed.
He did not think much more, subconsciously run, quickly ran to the rainbow bridge above, did not look back, ran forward, until he ran through the rainbow bridge, to the sea of clouds, feel nothing strange behind him, only then stopped to gasp for breath.
For a long time, he once again stared at the hand of the black fire stick, at the moment, that fire stick but as usual, flat, ugly and quiet lying in his hands.
※※※
The next day, the Green Cloud Sect Seven Veins Martial Arts entered the third round.
Sixteen Qingyun disciples, exactly distributed in eight rings above, at the same time than the test. Big Bamboo Peak three people, Zhang Xiaofan was arranged to "kan" on the platform, Song Da Ren in the "away" platform, as for Tian Ling'er and Lu Xueqi this competition, was arranged in the largest and most obvious "dry" platform. "The most important thing to remember is that it's the most important thing to remember.
According to Zhang Xiaofan know only three days but has been mixed very familiar with the friend Zeng Shushu's statement, in the ring arrangement, the Qingyun door those old guys have big problems, in fact, it is no wonder, Lu Xueqi and Tian Ling'er this competition is the attention of all the people.
Carrying "Tianya" Lu Xueqi needless to say, in the past few days, the young disciples of the Qingyun door where she appeared in the competition, must be surrounded by three layers outside three layers, water can not be understood.
And the big bamboo peak Tian Ling Er originally in the Qingyun door has a reputation for early wisdom, these two days is a great show of skill, and even overcome the strong enemy, all attention, and the appearance is also beautiful, and Lu Xueqi a moment, the good people in the private more comments.
Today, these two Qingyun Sect's most outstanding young female disciples in the past hundred years met too early, the elders may have feelings of regret, but the young disciples are all happy and excited, early on the dry platform surrounded like an iron bucket.
Song Daren and Zhang Xiaofan both stood in front of Tian Yiqi, saying goodbye to him, Tian Yiqi looked at Song Daren and said, "Your opponent today is Chang Arrow of the Long Sect, this person has a stoic nature and has been cultivating for many years, he has an extremely strong defense in his dao, which happens to be the opposite of the Immortal Sword Ten Tigers that you are cultivating, so you have to be careful."
Song Da Ren respectfully said, "Yes, Master."
Zhang Xiaofan's heart stirred, feeling that the name seemed somewhat familiar, and after thinking for a while, he recalled that it was five years ago when he first went to the mountain, it was Chang Arrow who guided him and Lin Jingyu to the Jade Clearance Hall.
Thinking of this, he heart does not feel some miss Lin Jingyu, I heard that yesterday here when my friend also won the second game, strength is outstanding, for the people as a genius, only he did not have time to go over to congratulate him.
Tian did not easily turn his eyes to look at the Zhang Xiaofan standing next to Song Daren, this unexpected little disciple stood there with his head down, not saying a word. Tian Yiqiu frowned and said, "Old Seven, be careful too, it's fine if you can't admit defeat, be careful not to get hurt."
Zhang Xiaofan's body shook, but the onlookers could not tell what he was feeling inside, he only whispered, "Yes, Master."
Song Daren looked into the distance and said to Tian Yiqi, "Master, it's getting late, I'll go with Little Brother."
Tian Yiqiu nodded, and Su Ru, who was standing at the side, smiled and said, "Be careful with everything."
Song Daren answered and walked with Zhang Xiaofan towards the outside of the circle, along the way, he vaguely felt that today, this little senior brother didn't seem quite right, muffled unlike the past days, so he said to Zhang Xiaofan, "Little senior brother, why don't you say a word today, are you nervous?"
Zhang Xiaofan glanced at Eldest Senior Brother and forced a smile, but did not answer.
Song Da Ren laughed cheerfully and said, "Don't think so much, and don't take victory or defeat too seriously, although Master Shifu and his wife love face, they will never blame you, got it?"
"Yes." Zhang Xiaofan answered, but in his heart, he secretly chanted, They don't have any expectations for me, so naturally, they won't blame me.
Song Daren nodded, at this time, the two of them walked out of the crowd, squeezing in wasn't easy, but going out was quite easy, Song Daren laughed and said, "Junior Brother, we're going to separate, good luck, I hope that you'll win another game later." After saying this, without waiting for Zhang Xiaofan's reaction, he himself laughed out loud.
Zhang Xiaofan let out a small sigh and walked towards the ring where he was competing.
Under the "Kan" stage, most of the Wind Return Peak disciples were here, and Zhang Xiaofan also saw that Gao senior brother's group from it. Wind Return Peak was a large branch in the Green Cloud Sect, with more than two hundred disciples, second only to the Long Sect's Tongtian Peak and Longshou Peak.
Obviously the Wind Return Peak crowd had heard something from Zeng Shushu, and all of them looked relaxed, and actually smiled and nodded in a friendly manner when they saw Zhang Xiaofan.
For some reason, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt that the kind smiles of all the people in front of him were all so annoying, and were all a form of contempt for himself.
He walked up to the ring with an expressionless face, and behind him on the stage, everyone stood against him, and this time, even Zeng Shushu wasn't there, as he himself had to compete.
But even if he came, he should still be cheering for his senior brother of the same vein!
In Zhang Xiaofan's heart, an indescribable loneliness suddenly welled up, standing on top of this high ring, looking all over at the countless gazes surrounding the stage, but not even a single friend.
In the end, for what, for what, always have to be a face to face everyone, even a friend can not see!
Sixteen-year-old boy, silently shouted in his heart, stubbornly biting his lip, lowered his head.
The mountain wind came gently and brushed the side of his face.
"Dang!"
The sound of bells and tripods in the near and far distance rang out almost simultaneously, echoing at the top of the Tongtian Peak and spreading far and wide. Zhang Xiaofan's heart jumped, and his first thought was: senior sister Ling'er should have started the competition as well! She shouldn't get hurt.
Then his heart was sour, secretly said: ''She is injured or not, where it is your turn to care, not to mention the master, master mother are there, is that Qi Hao also said in as soon as possible to solve the opponent immediately after the rush. Hey hey, as soon as possible to solve the opponent, good wind, good self-confidence ah! You're really treating your opponent like nothing..."
With this in mind, he forgot that he was also in the ring until his opponent, standing opposite him, called out loudly for the third time, "⋯ Zhang!"
Zhang Xiaofan woke up suddenly, looked up, but saw the opposite somehow stood a wind back peak senior brother, tall, look is quite gentle, just now saw Zhang Xiaofan dazed, expression will not help some odd.
Zhang Xiaofan's face turned red, only to hear a burst of laughter from the stage.
Peng Chang smiled as he arched his hand and said, "I am Windy Return Peak disciple Peng Chang, please teach Senior Brother Zhang."
Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Disciple Zhang Xiaofan under the Great Bamboo Peak, I have met Senior Brother Peng."
After the two of them had met and saluted, Peng Chang smiled faintly and looked Zhang Xiaofan up and down, then lowered his voice and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Zeng has already told me all about you, I..."
Zhang Xiaofan's body trembled, and suddenly and uncontrollably blurted out, "Senior Brother Peng, please let go and come over here!"
Peng Chang froze, looked carefully at Zhang Xiaofan, and after a long time, he put away his smile and nodded, his right hand crossed in front of his body, and with a "clang" sound, an immortal sword that emitted a red glow, almost as if it was surrounded by burning flames, was offered up.
"This sword, 'Wu Hook', is forged from a thousand years of fire copper, I ask for Master Zhang's instruction." For some reason, Peng Chang's entire demeanor was serious and imposing, rather like he was speaking to a great enemy who was evenly matched.
Zhang Xiaofan felt the fiery aura coming from a long distance away, and this fiery aura was strong and fierce, very different from the gentle and righteous aura of the Shao Yang Immortal Sword of Chu Yuhong of Chaoyang Peak yesterday, with a few more points of hegemony.
Zhang Xiaofan's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, to the point that he was so nervous that even his body trembled slightly as he thought of the outcome he would face later, but he clenched his teeth and did his best to control himself as he took out the black burning stick from his bosom.
Under the stage, there was a burst of ear-piercing laughter.
Zhang Xiaofan's body trembled as if he had been pricked by a needle.
Peng Chang, who stood opposite him, however, did not laugh, glanced at the black burning stick, and said with a straight face, "Senior Brother Zhang, please!"
Zhang Xiaofan looked at this opponent, behind that burning flame, Peng Chang was like an ancient fire god, his whole person was different, the blazing flames caused gusts of smoke to billow up in the air, even his face was a little blurry to look at.
Gripping the black rod tightly, Zhang Xiaofan once again felt that feeling of flesh and blood, as if he knew his master's mood, that cold sensation boiled up once again.
The black and ugly burning stick, slowly rose up in the air, leaving his palm, radiating a mysterious green light, although ugly, although weak, but it stood in mid-air, facing the powerful flames that seemed unstoppable and omnipotent in front of it, it, and its master, did not have the slightest intention of retreating.
A person, a burning stick, facing the whole world!
Under the stage, the cacophony of laughter slowly subsided, and people held their breath for some unknown reason.
That huge flame was getting more and more prevalent, letting people not know what exactly it was burning to burn so exuberantly, far below the stage, the Wind Return Peak disciples all felt the blazing heat, the disciples with lighter cultivation even retreated backward, some with Zeng Shushu befriended, knowing the inside story such as senior brother Gao and others all changed their faces, anyone could see that Peng Chang at this moment where it looked like he was being merciful, it was completely a look of full strength, life and death struggle.
The fire dragon got bigger and bigger, and its teeth and claws almost covered the sky above the ring.
From a distance, Zhang Xiaofan standing on the stage, shirt and pants, even the end of the hair and eyebrows, even seem to have withered signs of scorching, you can imagine the feeling that he is in the furnace at the moment, creepy.
However, the teenager stood there, although there is pain on his face but did not flinch, even if there is fear in his eyes but that kind of fervor, deep in the heart of the flame, as if also burning in his eyes.
A whistling, a huge fire dragon pounced over, to devour all the world.
It was as if it was an instant, but it solidified a lifetime of years.
Zhang Xiaofan looked up to the sky and whistled, the Burning Fire Stick was as green as light, rushing into the flames.
The loud, harsh roar was deafening in the midst of the burning flames.
Under the stage, Senior Brother Gao and the others looked at each other in disbelief, and after a long time, they dropped their feet and sighed, "How could it turn out like this!"
