Chapter 268 Salesman

"What did you say?" Thunder Goddess asked as she slowly turned back. ;

"You heard me. I said I want to meet your Master," Xuefeng repeated while looking around. "I'm sure she can see and listen to us right now."

"I never said I have one," Thunder Goddess denied coldly. "I don't need to talk to yo—" ;

"You didn't need to say anything as your reaction is enough for me," Xuefeng cut her off and walked through the barrier confidently. ;

Thunder Goddess squinted her eyes aggressively but he explained, "I know you were trapped inside ice while waiting for us to save you. Not only are you perfectly safe from the poison that we planned to cure, but your strength increased too quickly. No matter how talented and skilled you are, it is impossible to do it alone." ;

Xuefeng embraced Ling's waist and glanced at her Lightning Stone. "Not to mention you possess a rare Elemental Stone that is desired by all powerhouses in the Cultivation World. My guess is that a powerful expert saved you and knowing your aversion to men, it has to be a woman. She is the one who controls this Realm and you serve her in return for saving your life."

"Ling, move aside," Thunder Goddess advised as her palm buzzed with Golden Lightning. "I told you the rules already. Don't blame me for killing him."

To her surprise, Xuefeng giggled and let go of Ling, pushing her aside. She quickly retaliated and returned back into his embrace. ;

"No! I won't let you fight her!" Ling cried out while staring deeply into Thunder Goddess's eyes. "Stop this right now! We can talk this out instead of fighting! Do you realize how much pain I will go through if any of you get hurt?!" ;

Thunder Goddess's gaze softened at her words but she didn't retract her powers. "I'm sorry Ling but I can't do anything about it. Don't worry, I will cut your connection with him before he dies. I won't let anything happen to you." ;

"Ling, you should go back behind the barrier. Let me handle this," Xuefeng suggested as he pulled Ling away. "Trust me, when it comes to protecting my loved ones, I don't mess around." ;

Ling's fingers wrapped tightly with his own as she wasn't willing to let go of him. He sighed and kissed her assuringly. "Don't worry, compared to her, I care about your feelings. I know that you used to be really close to her and I respect it. I will not kill her because of that. I will only show her who is the weak one between us."

'Xuefeng will be fine,' Tianshi suddenly spoke in their minds, finally convincing Ling to give in. She gave each of them one last glance and left, flying back behind the barrier. ;

"Now I'm all alone in front of you," Xuefeng announced with a smile as he opened his arms. "Go ahead. Strike me with your lightning. Give me all you got and show me what a Thunder Goddess everyone fears can do." ;

"You are a fool if you think you can face me," Thunder Goddess expressed, causing Xuefeng to laugh. ;

"Haha, do you really think so? I think it is you who is nervous right now," Xuefeng pointed out with a smirk. "I thought you are confident in your skills yet now you are hesitating. Why are you talking now? Hurry up and attack me. How else can I prove my strength to your Master other than defeating her prideful disciple?" ;

He extended his right her and announced, "To make it fair, I will not use my Elemental Bracelet. How about now? Do you feel more confident or is it still too much for you?" ;

Thunder Goddess's face darkened as her whole body sparked but instead of being intimidated, Xuefeng sighed. ;

"Right, right, I'm sorry. I was expecting too much from you," Xuefeng muttered before suggesting like an experienced trader. "Let me think. The most I can do is not using my Qi materialization as well. Good deal, right?" ;

"I changed my mind. I am going to kill you right now," Thunder Goddess declared and finally exploded. Her arms burst out with Golden Lightning and two thick snakes formed out of it. ;

Her eyes showered him with killing intent, not looking like she wanted to hold back anymore. To everyone's surprise, Xuefeng only lamented under his nose like an old salesman. ;

"Okay, okay, You win! I won't use my sword as well. I will only use my bare hands," Xuefeng called out while displaying empty palms. "This is my last offer and I can't go any lower. Take it or leave it." ;

"Die!" Thunder Goddess cried out and her lightning snakes launched forward, disturbing the air with their powerful energy. ;

Xuefeng only stood still with a smile, waiting for the snakes to open their maws and crash into him from both sides. His body disappeared inside a ball of Golden Lightning that began to ripple the space around him. ;

All his wives had full trust in him but seeing an attack that none of them could survive was hard to watch. The only reason they remained calm was Tianshi who was pursing her lips. ;

"I'm sorry Ling but I had no choic—"

Thunder Goddess began apologizing as the golden cloud slowly faded away only to freeze halfway. A person emerged from within the lightning while shaking his head. ;

"Is that all you got?" Xuefeng asked as he fixed his hair which seemed to be the only victim. "I told you not to hold back yet you try to ruin my hair on purpose. I don't have time to waste on you, so stop messing around and give me all you have got." ;

"How…?" Thunder Goddess muttered in shock.

"Awww, was I too harsh on you?" Xuefeng asked sweetly, pretending he pitty her. "Okay, I guess I really overdid it. Because you are Ling's friend, I will give you a special deal." ;

He patted his chest before locking his arms behind his back. "Let's make a final deal. I won't move and you can strike me directly on the chest but I have a condition. If you can't do anything to me even with this much advantage then you will lead me to your Master. She should be more qualified to talk to me."
