Chapter 285 - Being beaten up

Ling Xiao still stood at his original position without an expression. He also didn't make any movements, just quietly watched Hu Chong.

Only the pair of eyes stared at each and every move of Linghu Chong.

However, it was these eyes that made Hu Chong feel incomparable fear, as if he was being watched by Yan Luo.

Time passed minute after minute, causing the amount of cold sweat on Hu Chong's forehead to uncontrollably increase. Finally, it gathered on both sides of his face, condensing into bean-sized droplets of water that dripped onto the dry ground.

At this time, the sun was extremely hot, causing Hu Chong to feel that his mouth was dry and his head was spinning, almost falling down under Ling Xiao's pressure.

"I am a very vengeful person. I will remember everything that you said to me. You won't be able to escape." At this time, Ling Xiao spoke again, reminding Hu Chong that he still had one last chance.

However, these words were like a death knell to Hu Chong's ears, as if it already told him that there was no other ending.

"Why? Why are you saying whatever you want? I'm not convinced, but I'm the one who deserves to be the center of attention!" This caused Hu Chong to feel as if the pressure within his body had finally reached its peak and he was unable to persevere any longer before exploding out.

Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, he felt that Hu Chong's Qi had taken a step forward compared to before, it seemed that anger and despair had caused him to make a breakthrough.

But no matter what, he still couldn't change the final outcome.

Hu Chong raised his sword and thrusted at Ling Xiao, using the strongest absolute art he knew, and transformed into countless sword images, dazzling him and made him unable to know which sword strike was the real one.

When this scene occurred in the eyes of the Huashan Mountain's seniors, they all sighed with emotion. They never thought that Ling Xiao would be able to easily force Hu Chong into a corner.

It could be said that in the entire Huashan Mountain, and even the entire Sect Leader, Yue Buqun was only able to receive a single sword strike from Hu Chong. The might of this sword strike was comparable to the peak of first-rate experts, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that Yue Buqun was only able to receive one sword strike from Hu Chong.

Could it be that Ling Xiao had the ability to do the same? This was a big question mark in everyone's minds.

"I admit that you have some skills. In time, you will definitely be able to become an expert capable of dominating the Jianghu, and after concentrating on cultivation, you can even surpass the Sect Leader's Yue Buqun. It's a pity that you met me!" Ling Xiao let out a cold snort, and the bough in his hand casually stabbed out.

"Ding!" With a sound, Hu Chong's strongest sword was stopped just like that. The dazzling sword shadow instantly dissipated, revealing the face of Hu Chong, who had a face of despair. The long sword had already left his hands, landing far away and breaking into two.

Silence, absolute silence, followed by an explosion of shock, but this was not cheers, but an uproar of disbelief. No one was willing to believe the scene in front of them, a sword strike of a peak first-rate expert, was broken by Ling Xiao with just one slash?

Furthermore, Hu Chong's sword was directly broken into two pieces. Even his weapon was destroyed. Did Hu Chong even have the power to reverse the heavens?

The answer involuntarily appeared in everyone's hearts.

Hu Chong was stunned, and just like that, he looked at the hand that held the sword, which was red and swollen. He had used all his strength to hold onto the sword, and then used all his Qi to release his strongest sword, which was broken by Ling Xiao using his bough, in one strike, and it was even broken into two.

"Alright, that's all for your performance. It's time for me." Ling Xiao said indifferently.

"No, no, what are you going to do to me?" This caused Hu Chong's body to soften, and he unexpectedly fell to the ground, paralyzed with fear.

Ling Xiao slowly walked towards Linghu Chong and leisurely said, "I have already said, those trash words that you once said must come with a price. There are a total of ten words, if you are still alive, then I will let you go today.

"Even if Sect Leader comes today, he won't be able to save you." Ling Xiao grinned and said something that Hu Chong had told him before.

It caused Hu Chong to freeze, and then he saw Ling Xiao raise the bough s in his hands.

"Pah!" With a sound, Ling Xiao's hand descended onto the bough and struck it onto Su Chong's body.

"AHH!" A mournful and blood-curdling screech sounded, giving people goosebumps.

"One." Ling Xiao, however, expressionlessly brandished the bough in his hand and counted down at the same time.

"Three times …"

"Six times …"

Every time he used a sufficient amount of strength, it could clearly be seen that wherever Ling Xiao had punched, deep wounds had been left. It was as if he had been hit by a whip that had instantly caused him to have a hematoma.

In this world, only the strong were respected. In the past, when Ling Xiao was weak, naturally, everyone would bully him, but now, the strength that Ling Xiao displayed had already exceeded that of Hu Chong, and was even stronger, making others unable to see the limit of his strength.

Even the seniors of the Huashan Mountain had subconsciously taken a few steps back, staying away from the crowd without batting an eyelid to prevent them from throwing this chore onto themselves.

Seeing that Ling Xiao had won, Yue Lingshan was naturally very happy. However, when she saw that Ling Xiao did not have any intention to stop, he thought that it was only natural for Hu Chong to be arrogant and teach him a lesson, let alone using a bough. However, he did not expect that even if it was a bough, it would make Hu Chong let out such a miserable scream.

Could it be that the bough really had some tricks up its sleeve, but Yue Lingshan had personally seen Ling Xiao picking them up from the ground.

This bough was obviously a normal bough, but after being strengthened by Ling Xiao's Inner Qi, it became extremely hard. To be able to do this, one had to at least be at the peak of a First Rated Warrior to be able to do it, so these people, who were spectating the battle, simply could not imagine that it was because of this reason.

"Ten." Ling Xiao counted, after finishing the last strike, he threw away the bough in his hands.

"Looks like you are quite lucky. Just nice, I don't need to explain to Sect Leader." Ling Xiao clapped his hands and laughed, he looked relaxed.

This made Hu Chong, after all, was someone that Yue Buqun valued. If he were to die just like that, Yue Buqun would definitely not let him go so easily. However, with Feng Qingyang's protection, even Yue Buqun did not dare to do anything to him.
