Chapter Twenty-Three: Variables

The short man stood still, unable to move, he felt a knife on his neck, and he didn't dare to breathe hard, for fear of touching the "knife". He couldn't believe what was happening in front of him at all, his eyes were clearly staring at him in front of him, but in an instant, the kid in front of him was behind him.

"What kind of magic are you using!?" said the short man, pretending to be calm. The short man's clothes were already soaked with sweat at this time, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his breathing became difficult in the hot weather. The feeling of suffocation that I had never felt before had made the short man very depressed at this time, and he had not encountered this situation when he was so big.

"Evil magic!?I'm afraid you don't know whose life is in your hands now?" Shi Xiao said coldly. Then Shi Xiao released the aura and aimed it at his throat. Shi Xiao still hasn't figured out some things, and if he can answer his questions truthfully, he won't be able to keep him alive, but as for how to stay, it depends on his mood.

"I... Don't kill me... I'm a member of the Claw Clan... You... If you kill me... Surely you don't have any good fruit to eat," the short man stammered. He is a descendant of the Western Empire and the God of War family, and he can definitely scare this kid with this reputation.

"Oh?!"

The tragic sound of "Ah!!hhhh The crowd put down the battle in their hands, and by the moonlight they saw a diminutive man lying on the ground, his left hand covering his right forearm. The moonlight hit the man's face with beads of sweat, and the dim silver-white moonlight combined with the distorted expression made everyone shiver.

The short man had never been hurt like this, and he regretted that he had said something like that. I didn't expect this kid to be so vicious and spicy. A burst of pain came from the severed arm, and the forearm of his right hand was cut by this kid, and the blood kept flowing, and the blood dripped to the ground. Now I know what the disparity in strength is, this person is not talking big at all, this kid can really fight three at a time.

Not far away, Shi Xiao knocked out the other two people who were about to escape, tied the two people with ropes, lifted the two people with one hand and threw them in front of the short man. When Shi Xiao finished this matter, he found that the battle in other directions had ended, and it seemed that the tactics he used had indeed worked. In the same way, they trapped all the defeated people with ropes, and when they had done all these things, they all sat on the ground without saying a word, and began to regain their respective domain powers.

This battle is nearing the end, although the Shi Xiao team has won a big victory, but all the members are in a hollow state, and the domain power is almost all used. Although the Yang Heavy Domain can easily fight the Yin Heavy Domain, if a group of people take turns to consume it, they can get all their energy out. Although Jiang Shuofeng and the others won this competition, everyone took what Shi Xiao said to heart, and the most important thing in order to deal with the next situation was to recover the domain power immediately, just in case.

"Why did you take on such a bullshit assignment!" the short man whispered regretfully. Stealing chickens is not a recipe for rice, but I didn't expect this Jin family to use themselves purely as swordsmen. This kid in front of me can't afford to mess with him, no, I'm afraid no one can afford to mess with this kid in this selection. Thinking of this, the wound on the forearm of the right hand hurt a little more, the forearm was obviously wrapped in iron, and the iron was made of the special material of the clan, but in front of this kid, it was as weak as paper and could be pierced.

"It's up to you next, ask you a few questions, if you can answer them to my satisfaction, hand over your hedron this time... What if—" Shi Xiao said sinisterly.

"I have no grievances with you, I just want to rob you of the domain power crystal, we are all beaten like this ......by you," the short man looked around at his fallen fellow and sighed again.

"No grievances, no revenge, is it arranged by the Jin family!?" Shi Xiao asked coldly. Shi Xiao wanted to ask him this question for a long time, this second round has just started to chase after him in this place, this is not arranged by someone, is there something wrong.

"The Jin family!?, I don't know about the Jin family!" said the short man. The short man can only fool around, if he really asks himself to shake out all this matter, and draw a line with this Jin family, who calls him the Jin family to pit himself.

"Oh?" Shi Xiao said. Then Shi Xiao urged the aura to slowly approach the short man's left hand, Shi Xiao was not in a hurry, the person in front of him was not the kind of person who could keep secrets, it was a big deal to break his hand again.

"Don't, don't... I'll say it all...", said the short man. The pain of the wound on his forearm told him that it was not as simple as opening a small hole.

"How many people did the Jin family send in this second round?" Shi Xiao asked. Shi Xiao felt that it was impossible for the Jin family to stop like this, Lin'er made the eldest lady of the Jin family lose face in the first round of the game, and the Jin family would definitely come to the door in the second round. So as early as when he entered the mountain range, Shi Xiao asked Yuanyuan to mark on Lin'er's body to prevent accidents.

"I don't know about this, but I know that the Jin family has spent a lot of money this time, one is to investigate the fate of the young master of the Jin family, and the other is to investigate you and that girl. The short man said.

"Girl, the one with me?" Shi Xiao asked.

"It's her, the head of the Jin family, who learned that his daughter had lost face, so he had to teach that person a lesson..."The short man said. Due to excessive bleeding, the short man's consciousness was a bit dazed and he fainted.

Seeing this, Shi Xiao could only stop the bleeding from his wound, then tied it up, and then rummaged through him to find the purple crystal. At this time, Jiang Shuofeng and everyone looked at the young man in front of them, and their hearts were inexplicably not good. One fight three wins easily, on the other hand, I am exhausted from three fights and two.

And judging from the power used by the boy in front of him, it doesn't belong to the domain power at all, but why can he beat those three people from the Yang Heavy Domain and can't fight back. There were too many secrets in this boy, and everyone could only watch him silently from the sidelines, and no one went up to ask about the boy.

"Take this and take it, rest for a while and leave immediately, this place is not suitable for a long time. Shi Xiao said to everyone. This place is too exposed, surrounded by woods, and it is not a way to rely on aura perception all the time, and if you want to rest, you have to find a secret place, and these people have to rest. This battle cost a lot of domain power, they are not like Shi Xiao to absorb the spiritual power of the natural world can quickly recover themselves, even if the recovery ability is greatly improved by the auxiliary ability of the elixir, if there is no safe environment to recover, it will not work.

Everyone took the pill and followed Shi Xiao to find a place to rest, and they didn't know if it was too fierce or something, and the group followed Shi Xiao quietly without saying a word along the way. Tonight, the moon was much brighter than usual, casting silvery white dots of light on the ground through the leaves. The temperature in the woods is not as hot as outside, and there are insect calls everywhere.

Suddenly, there was a roar not far away, and Shi Xiao walked towards the roar, which became louder and louder. Pushing aside the dense grass, a huge waterfall suddenly opened up in front of everyone, and they didn't expect this mountain to be so pleasant. The moonlight shone on the waterfall, and everyone opened their mouths in surprise when they saw this scene, and the fatigue of the battle gradually began to magnify.

"That's it, Brother Jiang and I will come to let you rest early tonight, and when the sun comes out, we will continue to march deeper into the mountains. Shi Xiao said. This place is indeed good, but the movement is too loud and others will definitely find this place. You can only stay here for one night, and I hope that all those people in the Yang Heavy Domain will rest.

"Okay, you can rest first, and I'll leave it to me and Brother Xiao Yu in the evening. Jiang Shuofeng said responsibly. Since he named him, he couldn't refuse, and besides, he also wanted to contribute to the team.

......

There was no word all night, Shi Xiao changed from the cultivation state in the morning, but Jiang Shuofeng was already asleep, Shi Xiao didn't bother them, last night's battle consumption was indeed a bit big. Shi Xiao basically has no consumption, the main consumption is to open the aura perception, Shi Xiao frantically absorbed spiritual power this night, so as to need it from time to time. The short man said that the Jin family had sent a lot of masters, and he had to prepare himself just in case. After Shi Xiao finished washing, he opened the domain power spar and simply ate something. At this time, Yu Xiaomeng had already woken up and started to wash, Shi Xiao said hello when he saw this, and went to explore the surrounding area.

"Yuanyuan, after this game, I want to go to the sect to meet Master and his old man. Shi Xiao said. Shi Lan had already gone to the place where Shi Xiao lived to visit Brother Long's family the night before he came to open this mountain range, and at the same time assured Brother Long that as long as Brother Long's children could reach the age of cultivation, they could directly cultivate in the Yumen Mountain Sect, and when he heard the news, Brother Long was excited and didn't sleep all night, he felt that the most real thing he had ever done in his life was to help Shi Xiao when he was in difficulty.

"I don't object, your master seems to have been tracking down the whereabouts of the blood clan as if he was avenging you?" asked Yuanyuan. Knowing some information about this blood clan from Shi Xiao's mouth, Yuan Yuan felt very similar to a race in the upper realm before, and Yuan Yuan had fought with this kind of race once three years ago, and the aura was always somewhat similar, and it happened that Master Shi Xiao investigated this matter, and he was interested in watching and seeing, to see if it was as he guessed.

"Well, are you interested?" Yuan Yuan in Shi Xiao's consciousness should not be the kind of person who likes to take care of these boring things, why did he suddenly ask himself. "There is a problem," Shi Xiao thought. One of the shameless things of the current Shixiao and Yuanyuan is that it is to ask.

"It's okay, just ask. Yuan Yuan said.

"Hmm?!Is there really anything wrong?" Shi Xiao continued to ask. Generally, at this time, Yuanyuan must have something to hide from Shixiao, otherwise Yuanyuan would not simply say a few words.

"You stinky boy, how did you learn to be poor?" asked Yuanyuan incredulously.

"Learn from you, hurry up and tell me what the hell is going on?" Shi Xiao suddenly said seriously.

"It doesn't hurt to tell you. There is also such a race in the place where I live, and it should be a little more ruthless than your race, which is called the Spirit Eater Race in the upper realm, and it specializes in eating those lives to strengthen its cultivation. However, this clan was wiped out by a group of spirit gods as early as the last Upper Realm War. Yuan Yuan said. Yuan Yuan simply said something to Shi Xiao, and he may not be able to understand what it means to Shi Xiao, after all, the upper realm is the world of the real strong.

"I thought it was some kind of race, and it was too pitiful to be exterminated. Shi Xiao pretended to be sympathetic and said. In Shi Xiao's eyes, as long as he absorbs life to increase his cultivation, no matter what it is, it is not worthy of pity.

"Cut...", Yuan Yuan said disdainfully.

"This is the so-called retribution, and there is cause and effect in this world. Shi Xiao suddenly said something very serious.

"Oh, when did you get to this level?" said Yuanyuan mockingly. Isn't it ridiculous for a little kid to say this?

"Why..."

"It's not good, there is movement in the mark, hurry up and find that little girl!"
