Lin Tianyou had just jumped out when Xia Qingchen leaped into midair with a high speed of 20 feet per step, sweeping out his long leg.
“Fire Phoenix Illuminates the Sky!”
He controlled his strength slightly, performing the Fire Phoenix Illuminates the Sky with only around 70% of its prowess.
Despite so, Lin Tianyou was still swept out like a sandbag, flying out in the air and then smashed into the ground, spurting blood non-stop.
“Ahh! Martial Brother Lin!” Xiao Fenyu screamed out and ran over to check him out.
She discovered that Lin Tianyou had already been knocked out by Xia Qingchen’s kick, and his limbs were all convulsing. He was in an ugly state.
“You!” Xiao Fenyu screamed, pouncing over like a fierce ghost. “How dare you hurt Brother Lin!”
Xia Qingchen didn’t think much of it.
What did she mean by him hurting Lin Tianyou?
Lin Tianyou was the one who had launched a sneak attack. He had lost but still crazily sought revenge.
Would she only be satisfied if he were to stand there and get hit by Lin Tianyou?
Under normal circumstances, she should feel ashamed for Lin Tianyou’s despicable actions and apologize to him
To think that she would accuse him instead and then continued attacking.
“Scram!” Xia Qingchen couldn’t be bothered to talk much to an unreasonable woman. He struck out with Fire Phoenix Illuminates the Sky.
Even Lin Tianyou was unable to take this attack, let alone her.
She was kicked in the face, and the intense spark left a scorching scar on her beautiful face.
All the students from the A class and D class gasped.
Xiao Fenyu was a well-known beauty in this batch of students of the martial pavilion. She was the dream lover of many young men.
No one expected that Xia Qingchen would deal such a harsh attack, injuring her face.
Xiao Fenyu crashed onto the ground, holding her face and viewing Xia Qingchen with great hostility. “You dare to hit me?”
Xia Qingchen replied calmly, “I’m not your father. Why should I condone your bad habits?”
Only parents would condone their children’s willfulness without any limits.
It was a pity that Xia Qingchen wasn’t her parent.
“You!” Xiao Fenyu felt very angry, but she didn’t dare to act recklessly anymore.
Xia Qingchen was very strong, unbelievably strong.
Even the strongest Lin Tianyou and herself had been defeated by a single kick from him, how could they take revenge?
Moreover, he didn’t show any leniency toward her as a lady, so she didn’t dare to offend him any further.
Xia Qingchen turned his gaze toward the students from the A class and smiled. “I’ve been a little rough, do excuse me. Is there anyone else who wants to compete against me?”
All the arrogant students averted their gazes.
They were afraid that if they were to meet his gaze, he might misunderstand that as a sign of a challenge.
Therefore, there was a short moment of silence.
“Isn’t this good? Isn’t it good for everyone to be quiet and get along together?” Xia Qingchen said calmly.
After saying that, he returned to the campfire and set up his grass hut.
The campfire party ended with that.
Contrasting against the A class’s great disappointment and sorry state, the students from the D class had unprecedentedly high morale and were a lot more spirited.
It was late at night, but they were still wanting to train.
It was because watching Xia Qingchen defeating students from the A class had stimulated their battle will.
“Erm, I’m sorry. My tone hadn’t been too good in the past, so…” Liu Yiyi went up to Xia Qingchen, her ten fingers tangled together, and she apologized with a reddened face.
She was offering her sincere apology.
She had spoken words of spite toward Xia Qingchen multiple times prior to this.
If Xia Qingchen were someone who was bent on seeking revenge, then she would have gotten a harsh beating and ended up being in the same plight as Xiao Fenyu.
However, Xia Qingchen was very forgiving. Despite being so strong, he never sought revenge with his martial prowess.
It was hard for her to not feel sincere admiration toward a person like him who was so broadminded and upright.
Xia Qingchen didn’t think much of it. He turned and smiled. “I’m not angry, so why are you apologizing? But you must avoid being proud and arrogant in the future. Only then would you be able to have great developments on the martial path.”
“Thank you Brother Xia for your guidance,” Liu Yiyi said, feeling embarrassed.
A commotion broke out amongst the students from D class who saw this scene.
Liu Yiyi’s face flushed up and she glared at them in embarrassment.
Amidst waves of laughter, Xia Qingchen and their relationship were slowly getting amicable very quickly.
This night was destined to be a sleepless night.
Late in the night.
The starry night sky was quiet and it was tranquil by the lake.
There was only the sound of burning firewood, as well as occasional crackling sounds.
Everything sounded so tranquil as if this was a drawing mentioned in the poetries.
Suddenly, many soft swooshes rang out.
Xia Qingchen’s grass hut was cut open quietly by a metal blade.
The cold metal blade exuded the cold tone of death amidst the night.
One, no, two figures that were completely covered up snuck in quietly through the slit they cut.
Their eyes emitted cold and vicious gleams. One of them held onto a metal blade, slashing out toward Xia Qingchen’s neck.
The other held onto a sack, covering toward Xia Qingchen’s mouth.
They were going to quietly kill Xia Qingchen in the grass hut.
The metal blade got near!
Three feet!
Two feet!
One foot!
The masked man’s eyes exuded a strong killing gleam, and he slashed down the blade fiercely, wanting to slash Xia Qingchen’s throat.
However, at this moment, Xia Qingchen who was deep asleep suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes seemed very awake.
Cold starlight radiated out from them.
“I’ve been waiting for very long!” Xia Qingchen said with a cold voice, and his fingers curled up, long prepared!
Chi chi chi——
The sounds of countless shaking threads rang through in the grass hut.
“Do it!” The two masked men were caught by surprise and hastened their action, the blade slashing down.
However, when the blade was only half a foot away from Xia Qingchen’s neck, it couldn’t go down any further.
It was as if there was something invisible but very tough that was holding it back firmly.
It was the golden cicada silk.
Before Xia Qingchen slept, he had covered the area half a foot away on top of his body, leaving no gaps.
There weren’t any sharp blades that could cut through the net of golden cicada silk.
“He is on his guard!” The countenance of the man holding the blade changed, and he let out a deep bellow. “Use martial skills!”
He gave up on his blade decisively, switching to use martial skills.
Xia Qingchen’s gaze was icy cold, and his fingers flicked out consecutively. Amidst chi chi chi sounds, several streams of invisible golden cicada silk shot out from the grass hut like there was some kind of mechanism.
The masked man who was holding onto the cloth sack suddenly felt the area at his waist, upper thigh, and neck tightened, strangled by countless threads. He was pulled back to a pillar at the side, firmly bound.
The other masked man showed no hesitation after seeing this, striking out a serious palm attack toward Xia Qingchen’s chest.
“Barbaric Elephant Gallops in the Wild!”
Xia Qingchen also struck out.
Rumble——
A sound that was like stifled thunder erupted in the grass hut.
This Barbaric Elephant Gallops in the Wild was very domineering, standing above everything else in the world.
The masked man was caught unaware and sent flying back from the palm strike, smashing the grass hut.
However, his cultivation base was quite high and he wasn’t seriously injured.
He merely rolled on the ground for a bit before he got back up to his feet quickly.
He wanted to dash into the grass hut once again and get rid of Xia Qingchen, but it was already too late.
The huge commotion had woken up the entire camp.
Qin Lin, who was near Xia Qingchen, was the first to react. He let out a loud cry and came charging over.
The masked man clenched his teeth and leaped into the pitch-black Ping Lake, leaving only ripples behind, disappearing without a trace.
Qin Lin had wanted to give chase but was more concerned about Xia Qingchen. He shifted through the collapsed grass hut.
When he saw that Xia Qingchen was uninjured, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, he noticed the masked man Xia Qingchen had bound up. He coldly pulled off the mask. “Who sent you?”
The unmasked man wore a fierce expression, saying, “No one. I’m jealous of Xia Qingchen, so I have the idea of killing him.”
Was that so?
