WOOSH!
A fierce
wind, and powerful qi shot straight at her. Cheng Xiao Xiao, at the
receiving end of this, felt that she couldn’t breath anymore. With the speed of
a raging rapid, the old man’s claw was already above her head in the blink of
an eye.
“Xiao Xiao!”
“Big
Sister!”
“Elder
Miss!”
Angry and
fearful cries came from below them.
Try to
escape?
It was too
late for that.
The old man
in grey, who had been studying Cheng Xiao Xiao closely since the very
beginning, noticed that not only did she not seem more fearful, she even seemed
to be more calm than the beginning of their encountered. He was a bit surprised
by that.
That slight
pause was enough for Cheng Xiao Xiao to realized that even though she couldn’t
move at all, but she could, however, opened her mouth and whisper the word,
“Collect!”
Along with
her word, the man across from her disappeared into thin air just like that.
Before he could even feel frightened.
Cheng
Biyuan, who was rushing over fully planning on sacrificing himself to take the
man out suddenly lost his target. He nearly fell off the head of the python.
Luckily he was able to react just in time before falling off.
Zhou
Jinjiang, who was a step behind him, witnessed the moment the old man in grey
disappeared. He thought he was mistaken at first, but then he looked again, and
the guy had surely disappewared.
Everybody
below them were also shocked. The strong, powerful old man disappeared
mysteriously; and under everyone’s watchful eyes no less, that was too…
Too abnormal!
Nevertheless,
Cheng Xiao Xiao, who everyone thought would certainly die was still standing
there unharmed. The two jade vines that she had in her hands were gone. Other
than her face being somewhat please, it seemed like nothing had happened.
At this
moment in time, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t care less what the others were
thinking. She looked at dad who was still recomposing himself from what
happened early and she was touched. Quickly she asked him, “Dad, are you oaky?”
“Xiao Xiao,
I am okay!” Cheng Biyuan shook his head, “What about you? Are you hurt?”
“Xiaxo Xiao,
are you okay?” asked Zhou Jinjiang as well.
Turning to
look at him, Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled and said, “Uncle Zhou, I am fine and I am
glad you two are fine too.”
She sighed
and then couldn’t help but looked over at her badly injured mystical beasts.
The smile on her face disappeared quickly. She jumped down from the fiery lion
and the other two followed suit.
All the
mystical beasts had sustained different levels of injuries. Cheng Xiao Xiao was
worried and wanted to begin treatment right away. She immediately said to the
two men next to her, “Dad, Uncle Zhou, I need to help these mystical beasts.
Please take everyone back inside the house, and not let them witness how I am
going to save these mystical beasts!”
“Xiao Xiao,
do you need any help?”
“Xiao Xiao,
is there anything I can help with?”
Cheng Biyuan
and Zhou Jinjiang looked toward the same direction and saw all the mystical
beasts lying on the ground. These were all treasures; never in their dream
would they expect someone so powerful to pay them a visit.
“No need.
Just help me guard the surrounding and not let anyone peek at what I am doing
will be sufficient!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao lightly.
“Okay!”
“No
problem!”
Right after
they said there, hasty footsteps approached them followed by her mother’s
voice, “Xiao Xiao!”
Cheng Xiao
Xiao turned around and saw her mother covered in tears, supported by her
younger brother. She felt very touched, “Mom, I am okay!”
“Big
sister!” Cheng Zheng Yuan bit his lower lip tightly, his eyes red. He was still
traumatized by what had just happened.

Yay, can the old man be her lackey now?
ReplyDeleteIt's not a matter of "can" at this point. It's not like the old fellow has any choice in the matter anymore.
