Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1396: Little Thief, Let Go of Your Hand
Almost in the instant when these dozens of elders surrounded Xiao Yi.
Swoosh... a fiery-red figure suddenly shot up.
An aura suddenly erupted.
"From now on, anyone who dares to harm a single hair of Xiao Yi will be considered at war with our Heavenly Rope Mansion."
Gongsun Huowu instantly blocked in front of Xiao Yi.
Her hands spread out, shielding Xiao Yi behind her.
The surrounding elders frowned upon seeing this.
Ximen Guye and Sister Yue also frowned.
"Gongsun Huowu, what do you mean?" Ximen Guye’s expression turned slightly cold.
"Huowu, what are you doing? Move aside." Sister Yue exclaimed.
Gongsun Huowu showed no intention to move, instead glaring at the two, "It’s you who should step aside."
"Huowu, what madness are you exhibiting?" Sister Yue’s tone became unpleasant.
"Hmph." Gongsun Huowu snorted coldly, saying no more.
But the fiery-red whip in her hand had already been drawn.
In her heart, only Guu Lianxing’s words resounded: ’My father could barely keep me alive for two months, while Young Master Xiao Yi can prolong my life for three months, that’s an extra month for me.’
Though it’s only an extra month.
Yet for Gongsun Huowu, Guu Lianxing living an extra month is more important than anything.
"Outrageous." Sister Yue coldly declared, "Gongsun Huowu, if you insist on shielding this Xiao Yi little thief, don’t blame our Heavenly Star Mansion for being rude."
"Elders, please seize that little thief immediately, and anyone who dares obstruct, capture them as well."
"Yes." The group of elders responded in unison.
However, Guu Lianxing’s brow instantly furrowed, "Outrageous, retreat immediately."
The group of elders immediately ceased, making no further moves.
Each pair of aged eyes turned towards Guu Lianxing.
Though Guu Lianxing appeared frail, her status in Heavenly Star Mansion was second only to the Mansion Master.
She is the most outstanding Heavenly Talent of Heavenly Star Mansion, and also the Young Master.
"Cough, cough." Guu Lianxing spoke weakly, her frail body already struggling to cope, coughing twice.
"Lianxing." Ximen Guye’s face turned anxious.
"Lianxing." Sister Yue quickly spoke, "I know you don’t want the girl Huowu getting hurt."
"But since this girl wants to protect Xiao Yi the little thief, then don’t blame our Heavenly Star Mansion."
"Sister Yue has misunderstood." Guu Lianxing caught her breath, "Lianxing’s intention is that Young Master Xiao Yi must not be offended."
"What?" Ximen Guye and Sister Yue’s expressions changed simultaneously.
"Lianxing, what nonsense are you spouting?" Ximen Guye asked in surprise. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
"Has this Xiao Yi little thief threatened you? Don’t be afraid, with me here, he can’t stir up trouble."
At this moment, Ximen Guye spoke with incomparable confidence.
Compared to three days ago when he showed fear, now he was full of confidence.
"Hmph." Ximen Guye snorted coldly, looking at the group of elders.
"The elders of Heavenly Star Mansion will allow your Young Master to be deceived and insulted by a thief?"
"Your Heavenly Star Mansion fears trouble, but the elders of Heavenly Slaughter Mansion do not."
Among the group of elderly men, half were elders from Heavenly Slaughter Mansion.
Sister Yue’s tone was icy, "Whoever dares let my Heavenly Star Mansion be shamed in the slightest, and bear the name of fearing trouble, will face the mansion’s rules upon return."
"This..." The group of Heavenly Star Mansion elders hesitated for a moment, then gathered starlight in their hands.
Heavenly Star Mansion martial artists naturally cultivate the Starlight Dao.
"Hmph." Sister Yue sneered, looking at Xiao Yi.
"Little thief, we know your previous battle records were exceedingly shocking."
"But don’t forget, this is within my Heavenly Star Territory."
"Heavenly Star Mansion martial artists, with the help of Heavenly Star Power, still do not fear you."
Sister Yue, named Guu Xinyue, is the only daughter of the Great Elder of Heavenly Star Mansion.
Within Heavenly Star Mansion, her status is second only to Guu Lianxing.
"Strike." At Guu Xinyue’s command, the group of elders immediately moved.
However, at the same moment, the group of elders once again halted their actions.
In the instant they acted, they already mobilized the starlight elemental power within their bodies, and communicated with Heavenly Star Power.
However, they were shocked to find that their internal starlight elemental power was suddenly suppressed.
Their entire starlight martial arts power could barely draw on the Heavenly Star Power.
Heavenly Slaughter Mansion martial artists experienced a surge of Qi-Blood in their bodies, and their momentum was instantly suppressed.
And all of this was merely because the young man they surrounded had condensed a strand of starlight sword qi in his hand.
"Is this all you’ve got?" Xiao Yi glanced indifferently at the group of elders.
His Star Illusion Swordsmanship had reached the Peak of Saint Emperor Realm.
Under the starlight sword qi, the surrounding Heavenly Star Mansion elders couldn’t even mobilize a sliver of starlight power.
As for the martial artists of Heavenly Slaughter Mansion, their strongest could only reach the Seventh Layer of Emperor Realm, Xiao Yi could suppress them with a single sword qi.
"Do you still wish to fight?" Xiao Yi asked indifferently.
The surrounding elders, renowned Saint Emperor Realm powerhouses, at this moment did not dare utter a word.
"Hmph." Xiao Yi snorted coldly, looking at Ximen Guye and Sister Yue.
"If you two had the same confidence now as you did three days ago, I might have regarded you a little higher."
"But now, ha."
Xiao Yi sneered, to him, these two were no different from clowns.
"Cough, cough." At this moment, Guu Lianxing beside him coughed hurriedly.
She originally intended to speak to stop the Heavenly Star Mansion elders.
However, in her urgency and anger, her frail body couldn’t cope.
"Lianxing, don’t get upset." Guu Xinyue quickly patted Guu Lianxing’s back.
"Rest assured, I don’t believe this little thief would really dare act presumptuously in front of all these elders."
"If he dares to be arrogant, then he should prepare for the full pursuit of Heavenly Star Mansion and Heavenly Slaughter Mansion."
Guu Xinyue coldly sneered, a bizarre icy-cold glint flashing in her eyes as she looked at Guu Lianxing.
Guu Lianxing became increasingly furious, her face suddenly pale, intending to say something.
But Guu Xinyue didn’t give her the chance, still quickly patting her back.
"You’re courting death." Xiao Yi’s eyes narrowed.
Swoosh... his figure flashed.
Guu Xinyue was struck with a slap, sent flying before she could react.
He could clearly see that the more Guu Xinyue acted this way, the angrier Guu Lianxing became, and the more her weak body suffered.
Guu Lianxing was the one he needed to save.
Playing these ’little tricks’ in front of his eyes? Ridiculous.
"Pfft." After being slapped away, Guu Xinyue spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Little thief, you dare hit me?" Guu Xinyue’s face revealed unhidden menace.
"Is there any major harm?" Xiao Yi ignored Guu Xinyue, placing a hand on Guu Lianxing’s wrist, sensing her condition.
Several robust starlight streams entered Guu Lianxing’s body through her wrist.
"I’m fine now, thanks Young Master Xiao Yi." Guu Lianxing recovered her breath, expressing gratitude.
"Scoundrel." Watching from the side, Ximen Guye instantly erupted in fury, "Little thief, release your hand."
"Is Lianxing’s hand something you dare touch?"
"You, get out of here too." Xiao Yi casually released a sword qi from his fingertips.
Ximen Guye instinctively blocked, yet to no avail, he was sent spitting blood flying by the sword qi.
Ranked third among Eighteen Mansions’s Talents, yet couldn’t withstand a single move from Xiao Yi.
...
Third update.
