Chapter 141: Ch 141: Terrifying Qin Huxiao
"What do you mean by ever-changing yet fixed destiny?" Emrys asked.
The man shook his head, speaking in a puzzled voice, "I don’t know. It is the first time I’ve seen something like this. It is as if your fate has already been decided. Your destiny is fixed, but it is also changing constantly despite being fixed. If it is fixed, why is it changing every second? It makes no sense."
Although Emrys also could not understand, he had a guess. The instant he heard the above words spoken by the man, his attention was diverted. He immediately thought of Ling Xiaolong.
Ling Xiaolong had told his predecessor that he was free to take whatever path he wanted to walk. He is free to choose and do everything based on his choices. But his final destination is already fixed, and this is something Ling Xiaolong chose for Emrys. No matter how unpleasant and dissatisfied he might feel, this is something that would never change.
’Perhaps, that’s the reason why my fate is already decided, but it also appears to be ever-changing.’ Emrys could not help but think internally.
Xander stood up, holding the blade in his hand, and said, "Since I can’t calculate your destiny, let’s leave everything aside for now. Let me show you the power of Sun & Moon Blade."
Saying this, he slowly raised the blade in the air above his head and waved.
"Buzz!"
Immediately, Emrys noticed the space around him trembling as a gigantic diagram appeared above Xander’s head. The diagram was split in half; one side was black, and the other was white. The center of the black side had a white point, and the center of the white side had a black point.
It was the Yin & Yang Diagram.
"This is...The Yin Yang diagram?" Upon seeing the Yin Yang diagram, Emrys was flabbergasted.
When the Yin Yang diagram appeared, it slowly started rotating. It was also at this time that a powerful aura exploded from Xander’s body.
"Buzz!"
The Yin Yang diagram kept rotating in the air, emitting a vast and boundless aura. The black and white blended with each other, constantly revolving to achieve something greater.
Emrys noticed something. He saw that the diagram was rotating at the same speed at which Xander was waving the Sun & Moon Blade. Obviously, the appearance of this diagram had a direct connection with the Sun & Moon Blade.
.....
Somewhere else...
It was a grand hall where many people could be seen sitting cross-legged. If Emrys was here, he could have recognized one of them. It was Qin Huxiao, the person who almost killed him months ago.
Suddenly, Qin Huxiao opened his eyes, but they appeared to be out of focus.
"Shua!"
Just as his eyes opened, Qin Huxiao felt a sense of danger and a merciless killing intent rushed straight at him.
Qin Huxiao’s expression was at a loss but his thoughts were spinning quickly. In the next moment, he formed a seal in his hand. The seal was strange but appeared to contain a bizarre power.
As the seal formed, Qin Huxiao’s eyes regained their clarity. A blinding golden light burst out of the seal in front of him. This was just a ray of golden light. There was no aura and there weren’t even any energy undulations as it charged forward.
Then, his eyes focused on the person who was about to kill him. This was an ordinary-looking young man, wielding a sharp weapon, rushing towards him with deep hatred in his eyes.
"Qin Huxiao, be careful!" Someone shouted. It was another person named Bo Liu. Bo Liu had also just opened his eyes. Seeing the situation ahead, he cried out in alarm and reminded Qin Huxiao.
At the same time, more and more people opened their eyes as they saw the killing blow.
This sword of that person was filled with killing intent. It was as fast as lightning. Everyone was awake and could only stare at this killing sword. The elegance of this sword was reflected in everyone’s minds.
"It’s over. Ning Roshuan genius has made his move. Moreover, it’s a sneak attack. Qin Huxiao is dead for sure. A monstrous genius is going to fall today." Someone exclaimed.
In fact, this was exactly what everyone was thinking.
Among the crowd of people, two people’s expressions were especially noteworthy. They were Qin Huxiao’s close friends, Kong Luteng and Yao Sumeng. Their faces were filled with pain and regret.
"This damned Ning Roshuan is truly hell-bent on killing Qin Huxiao."
Under the glory of this sword strike, everyone saw a streak of golden light appear in front of Qin Huxiao. It was sudden and very dazzling, but it did not contain any energy or aura. It is as if a golden light had accidentally descended.
The golden light flew forward and landed on the Ning Roshuan’s sword. There was no terrifying explosion or surging energy, only the silent melting of the sword. The golden light melted the sword and the sword dissipated bit by bit.
Time seemed to have been delayed several times as one slow motion after another occurred. The elegance of that sword was completely swallowed by the golden light, disappearing without a sound. At the same time, the golden light rushed towards Ning Roshuan.
At this moment, Ning Roshuan panicked. Strangely, his panicked expression seemed to have slowed down a lot. It was changing little by little until the golden light engulfed him.
There were no explosions, no energy waves, everything silently dissipated.
"Shua!"
Like a gust of wind blowing, Ning Roshuan’s body disappeared in front of Qin Huxiao, turning into ashes and disappearing without a trace.
If one were to say that a moment ago, there was still someone who was in a daze and had yet to wake up, then were now wide awake under the effect of golden light.
This was completely terrifying.
The sneak attack of a talented assassin was broken just like that. Moreover, Ning Roshuan had turned into dust without a sound.
How could this be?
When did Qin Huxiao become so terrifying?
What did he comprehend just now? What a terrifying move.
Everyone howled in their hearts as they widened their eyes, as though they had seen a demon. Everything before them was too inconceivable, it was too much of a challenge to their endurance.
Ning Roshuan, a genius who managed to climb to the fourth step in such a short period of time, was actually unable to withstand the golden light. He died and died in a way where not even a trace of his physical body was left behind.
This was too scary!
This is unbelievable!
Everyone was awake but they still felt like they were in a dream.
"Ahhh!"
Suddenly, in the midst of everyone’s astoundment, a shrill and pained cry rang out. It was so sharp that it caused one’s eardrums to hurt.
Just when everyone was still in shock and feeling that everything was just an illusion, a mournful and sorrowful scream brought them back to their senses.
"My precious artifact, my spatial ring."
"F*CK..."
It was Qin Huxiao. He was covering his head and squatting on the ground with a depressed and frustrated look on his face. It was as if he had lost something very important.
He had indeed lost something. In fact, he lost everything that was on Ning Roshuan’s body. Ning Roshuan’s spatial ring had disappeared along with his body. They both turned to dust from his own attack.
Since Ning Roshuan and his spatial ring disappeared completely, it also means all the wealth Ning Roshuan had was gone now.
Qin Huxiao felt pained in his heart and was very upset.
However, all the cultivators around were at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.
"Are you doing this on purpose?"
"Your fighting strength was already terrifying. Now that you have comprehended something that could unleash such a shocking scene, you have become even more terrifying.
"With your level of combat strength, why are you crying for a tiny amount of wealth Ning Roshuan might have? You must be doing this on purpose right?"
"This fellow, he is purposely provoking us."
Everyone was speechless as they cursed inwardly. None of them dared to curse loudly in front of Qin Huxiao, afraid that they might end up becoming his next target and die without leaving behind a body.
Due to fear, everyone started retreating bit by bit. In just a short few seconds, everyone had retreated several meters away from Qin Huxiao. But they kept cursing him in their hearts.
If it was said that Qin Huxiao was already feared by the majority of people before due to his strength, then now, Qin Huxiao had completely established his terror in everyone’s heart. No one dared to even think of making him their enemy. Everyone was afraid of him.
They knew full well how terrifying Qin Huxiao’s previous attack was since it had even destroyed a spatial ring.
All of them retreated and increased the distance between them and Qin Huxiao.
Qin Huxiao, on the other hand, did not mind these people. He first looked at his hand and then muttered, "I believe I can rise to Seventh Step in the next six months at most. When that time comes, I can break past the barrier and enter Level 2 areas."
"But before that, I should find the natives of this world to obtain information about the location of Sunfire Heartseed."
