Chapter 231 The demon’s invasion 9

Shin Jiao versus the Jiao family part 3

/*unedited*/

An old man and a young man face against each other. One is floating while the other one on the ground. From the look of it, it is clear that the young man is at a disadvantage in this fight. But the young man's expression is relaxed as if he is not facing some life and death battle.

Jin Lo Jiao is already seething in rage as he looks at his descendant whom he deemed as unfilial. Then from the air, he began to congeal all the Qi in his body and formed a protective aura surging throughout his body. This scene made Shin Jiao turn his vigilance high as he positioned himself to be prepared for any attack that would come from the old man.

With a sneer in his face, the old man suddenly waved his hands and sent Qi blades flying towards Shin Jiao. The Qi blades are in the shape of quarter moons which flew straight towards Shin Jiao.

Right now, Shin Jiao is faced with these multiple projectiles and began moving in a weird way which only left shadows on his wake.

In this single exchange, it is clear that long-range attacks are not effective against Shin Jiao which made the old man's expression turned ugly.

Although he is a very powerful cultivator, he still needs to exert more Qi when throwing his projectiles. If Shin Jiao is hit, Jin Lo Jiao is sure that only one is strong enough to destroy the young man into millions of pieces. But he didn't expect that the young man was fast enough to evade each of his attacks wasting much of his Qi.

With a helpless sigh, Jin Lo Jiao suddenly flashed as he began attacking Shin Jiao head-on. Each of his strikes is like mountain boulders being thrown at Shin Jiao, who tried his best to dodge each of those deadly fists.

"Haha, I agree that you are really fast and formidable. But dodging won't help you defeat your enemy. Come on! Fight! Fight me!" Jin Lo Jiao shouted with a deranged expression on his face.

Right now, he is feeling a mixture of emotions as he wanted to kill and destroy the young man who is his descendant, but at the same time have the urge to cultivate him because of his skills and abilities. It is known that in the cultivation land, it is impossible for those in the lower realms to fight against those in the higher realms because of the spiritual pressure.

But he has been exerting his spiritual pressure on his opponent but it seems that the young man could not even feel it. So right now, Jin Lo Jiao is really confused and amazed at the same time.

"Haha, you truly are a strange individual. If you could have obeyed the family then I would have personally taken you as my disciple. But now, since you are this strong, the family would be in danger if you are kept alive and grew further. Hence, it is my duty to destroy the future trouble of my family." Jin Lo Jiao said as he further intensified his attacks.

But to his dismay no matter how hard he attacks the young man he seems to be unable to hit him. He is like a loach which is very slippery and would dodge each of his hits without any efforts.

Unknown to the old man, Shin Jiao is currently in deep trouble. Although he is able to dodge those deadly attacks, he would still suffer internal injuries because of the backlash of the Qi projected by the old man. So no matter how well he dodges, he is still at a disadvantage.

Every now and then, Shin Jiao would also throw some punches but he is unable to hurt the old man because of the difference in their cultivation strength.

Suddenly, an opening presented itself when the old man threw a slow punch at his face, followed by a very strong turning roundhouse kick. The gushing wind following the old man's strong legs made Shin Jiao took a few steps backward. Then he suddenly drew out the gun from inside his sleeves and stealthily shoots a single shot on the opening under the right side of the old man.

Jin Lo Jiao is confident that the strength of his gushing kick would be able to throw Shin Jiao off guard and while flying he would send a wind blade and cut the young man in half. But he suddenly felt a pang of pain coming from his right side. Jin Lo Jiao didn't know what happened but right now, under his robe, he can feel warm blood slowly flowing. It seems that there is now a thumb-size hole in his size which made him feel afraid.

No matter how he analyzes it, he seems to have not seen his opponent did something or did some spell to shot a projectile. It's just like when his shoulder was hit by something. He didn't even see what it was.

So now Jin Lo Jiao is in vigilance as he knows that this young man is not that simple.

"Damn it! This is too humiliating. But if I don't go all out, I would really lose this battle and my family would lose our face. But if this unfilial child dies, then everything would be fine. Then, young lad, you can't blame me for being ruthless this time." Jin Lo Jiao said with a grimace on his face.

He then suddenly flew a few meters up and hover while looking down below like an aloft being ruling over the land. He looks at the small figure of Shin Jiao as he began to congeal large amounts of Qi into his body. Right now, he is going to pour out his power to attack the young man below him. Though he is afraid of the long-range projectile Shin Jiao is using, he is confident that it could not reach the height he is right now.

Meanwhile, the city began to see so many disturbances especially on the outskirts of the city. When Shin Jiao and Jin Lo Jiao were fighting against each other, many of the nearby houses were destroyed. Although there are many who were injured, still they were able to keep their lives and escape the area. So right now in a radius of more than 500 meters, almost all of the houses in this area are already in ruins.

Because of this, the guards were notified but when they arrived in the area and saw that a powerful cultivator is fighting against someone, they instead keep the people back so that they can minimize the damages.

They are already experienced and know what to do in this kind of situation. Plus, they know that the clan or family that is responsible for this would be the one to pay for the damages. So they didn't care what happened as long as they can keep the casualty to a minimum.

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of this battle area, many strong cultivators are watching. When they saw that the clan ancestor of the Jiao family is already at the peak of the middle-stages of the infant soul realm they were surprised. They can see that with his status right now, Jin Lo Jiao is about to break through to the late-stages of the infant soul realm. When that happens then, the Jiao family would gain a strong backer nearing the nascent realm.

Hence right now, they are watching this fight with curiosity.

But suddenly everyone was stunned once again because it seems that the opponent of the Jiao family ancestor is a trifling middle stage gold core realm cultivator. What they could not understand at this time is how this low-level cultivator able to injure a powerful cultivator did?

"Maybe the Jiao clan ancestor is really weak that he could not beat even an ant. Haha…"

"You're the one to talk. I heard before when you and Jin Lo Jiao dueled you've lost to him as he thrashed you thoroughly. Hehe…"

"You… alright, come here. Let me see if you can defeat me, you old goat."

"Shut up! That youngster is not normal. Let's just watch what happened next… hmmm… he looks familiar."

"Haha… Master Xiemen, you truly are a bit senile already. Don't you see who that brat is? That brat was the one who took advantage of your great-granddaughter."

"What?! Oh, now I see… He is the one they called Shin Jiao the artificer who is currently developing the communication tool."

"Haha… The Jiao clan is too stupid. If that boy belongs to my clan we would have doted on him. Tsk, tsk…"

The old men converse with each other as they watch what's happening in the battle between Shin Jiao and Jin Lo Jiao.

Right now, very powerful energy suddenly surges forth from Jin Lo Jiao who is a few kilometers above the city.

"This is bad, what is that old man thinking?"

"Everyone, open up a defensive field array. We must not let this affect the city further. If it causes too much damage, I will skin all of the Jiao clan members alive!"

Upon seeing the situation, all of the powerful cultivators in the area suddenly made their move and began covering the radius of where the two are fighting. Right now, they must protect the rest of the land in the city.

They are not concerned about the destruction because the city builders can just put everything back as it is with their ability. So the main thing right now is to stop further destruction.

"Haha… Young lad. Although you are a talented member of the Jiao family, however, you are a useless piece of the family and useless people should be cut off so that you can never hurt the other clan members." Jin Lo Jiao shouted as a large ball of pure Qi energy is currently hovering above his two hands.

His expression is currently that of a mad man as he could not accept that a young man pushed him to this end.

With a sinister grin on his face, he made his move to throw the energy ball downwards.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao is currently looking at the old man above him and a cold gleam appears in his eyes.
