Chapter 267 - 267 Please Turn Around, Baby

267 Please Turn Around, Baby

For a time, it was completely silent at the foot of the Central Divine Mountain.

The atmosphere was both funny and extremely awkward.

Of course…

Shuang Xueming was probably the only one who felt awkward.

It was only at this moment that he finally realized that that damned Xia Donghai and this snake demon girl who had ignored him time and time again… were in cahoots!

The two of them both echoed and opposed each other, putting him in a difficult position. Not only did he not get the Millennium Cold Chalcedony, but he also lost two treasures that were already offered to him!

“You… you two…”

Shuang Xueming’s true form was an Ice Spirit Silkworm that was born in an extremely cold place. His eyes were as clear and blue as ice. However, at this moment, they were dyed with a bright red color, as if blood could drip out at any moment.

“You… actually dare to trick me?”

His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Feng Xia.

However, at this moment, Feng Xia’s attention was not on Shuang Xueming at all.

Seeing that Xie Ding’s breathing had stabilized, Feng Xia took the green-skinned gourd from Qing Lin’s hands. He then raised the broken bronze sword and slapped it on the mouth of the green-skinned gourd.

Both Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin stared curiously at Feng Xia’s actions.

As Feng Xia’s palm landed, the green-skinned gourd and the broken bronze sword glowed at the same time. Then, the broken bronze sword suddenly shrank and turned into a stream of light that entered the green-skinned gourd.

“So they’re the same treasure?”

Qing Lin blinked her two large eyes. Her pointy snake tail wriggled back and forth as she gently tapped the gourd.

Feng Xia nodded slightly and channeled a trace of magical power into the green-skinned gourd.

However, this trace of magical power was like a stone sinking into the sea. The green-skinned gourd only trembled slightly and did not react anymore.

“Can it be that it’s not activated by magical power?”

Feng Xia could not help but be slightly stunned.

When he saw the green-skinned gourd and the broken bronze sword, he had already noticed that the two ancient treasures that Xie Ding took out were actually two parts of the same treasure.

For Feng Xia, it was not difficult to come to that conclusion.

If Shuang Xueming had not been focused on mouthing off, with his experience, he would have been able to discover the connection between the two treasures as well.

However, that did not happen.

“It’s actually one treasure?”

Even Xie Ding was stunned when he saw this.

However, a relieved smile soon appeared on his face. “That’s fine. If not for fellow practitioner Xia Donghai’s knowledgeable eyes, these two treasures would only be like pearls covered in dust in my hands. I might as well exchange them for a drop of Millennium Cold Chalcedony. After all, the increase in cultivation is real.”

Xie Ding was very undisturbed about this.

Even if he had not met Xia Donghai and the others today, he would most likely have traded these two broken bits of ancient treasures on another occasion. Instead of caring about who the ancient treasures ultimately ended up with, he would rather care about the growth of his cultivation!

However, when these words fell into Shuang Xueming’s ears, they inevitably sounded a little ear-piercing.

“Damn it… Is this guy mocking me for being blind?”

His gaze became colder and colder. He forcefully suppressed the anger in his chest and lay dormant in the Heaven Seat mystical realm. He repeatedly warned himself, “Now is not the time to fight due to personal feelings.It’s because the Heavenly Stairway has yet to open that this Xia Donghai can use the power of the divine light and hold court there. Once the Heavenly Stairway opens, it will be the true time to test his cultivation and strength!”

On the Heavenly Stairway.

Feng Xia thought for a moment and stopped pouring magical power into it. Instead, he activated a trace of soul power.

Generally speaking, if one’s cultivation had not reached the True Spirit Realm and had not formed a True Spirit essence soul, one would not be able to release one’s soul power. However, Feng Xia’s situation was special, allowing him to release a trace of soul power even though he was only in the Primal Core Realm.

Buzz—

Suddenly, the green-skinned gourd lit up.

An incredibly sharp green light rose from the mouth of the gourd, emitting a terrifying brightness. With a whoosh, it tore through the sky and headed straight for the direction of the Heaven Seat mystical realms.

“Xia! Dong! Hai!”

At this moment, Shuang Xueming could feel his hair stand on end as he sensed an inexplicable threat.

He could not help but shout, “How dare you attack me?!”

He did not expect that Feng Xia would dare to risk universal condemnation by attacking him under the watchful gazes of so many living beings!

Did he know who he was targeting?

Shuang Xueming regretted his decision. If he had not rejected Xie Ding, the broken bronze sword would not have fallen into Feng Xia’s hands!

This way, he would not be facing the current crisis.

Unfortunately, it was too late to regret now.

The moment this thought arose in his mind, the emerald green sword light had already arrived above his head with limitless brightness!

Although this unknown ancient treasure was still in a damaged state, the power it displayed was already enough to shock many people.

“Do I really have to activate the technique left behind by my father?”

This thought appeared in Shuang Xueming’s mind.

Once he did that, he might indeed be safe and sound. However, by using a power that did not belong to him, it also meant that he had admitted his own failure. When facing Chi Yanli and the others, he would always be inferior.

“How dare this guy!”

Chi Yanli and the others, who were secretly observing everything, were also shocked at this moment.

How much courage and confidence did he have to brazenly attack the son of King Hann in front of so many people?

In fact, they did not know…

Feng Xia was also shocked!

After all, he had no intention of attacking Shuang Xueming at all. His current principle was that as long as it was not a life-and-death feud and the other party did not have the intention to fight to the death, he was completely happy to adopt a long-term… What he meant was that if he let the other party live, there would be plenty of benefits in return.

He did not expect that the moment he injected soul power into the green-skinned gourd, the broken bronze sword would fly out and head straight for Shuang Xueming at the Heaven Seat mystical realm!

“This is going to end up being a huge feud…”

Feng Xia sighed. Although he was a little surprised, he was not too afraid.

At the end of the day, it was Shuang Xueming who provoked him repeatedly. Even if he attacked now, it could only be considered a forced counterattack. At most, King Han of the extreme north could refuse to believe his reasoning.

In the next moment, the emerald green sword light which arrived above Shuang Xueming’s head circled around it. Then, it flew back to the green-skinned gourd in Feng Xia’s hand at a speed faster than when it left.

Feng Xia: “?”

Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin: “?!”

Shuang Xueming: “???”

…
