Chapter 1121 Gloomscale

This was just a single exchange of blows, and Peacock Blue had to sever itself!

Clearly, this had not been a good start. In the past, Xia Fei had always been the one using a fiend blade against others; now, someone else’s fiend blade was aimed his way. So far in his life, this was the first time he had come across a powerful weapon that could rival Nirvana!

This was a very tough battle!

*Whoosh*

With Zesyr Night in his arms, Xia Fei tapped lightly with his feet as he swiftly dashed out far. All the while, he was maintaining a ready-for-battle stance while he stayed in the shadows and minimized his presence using Breath Control

‘It’s him! It’s actually HIM?!’

Zesyr was shocked. The look in her eyes was complex. For a very long time, she had been studying the one-armed Xiao Xing, worshiping its user, Xiaoxiao, but today, she had actually discovered that the Xiaoxiao, whom she had been idolizing so much, was no more than an imposter! The real Xiao Xing user had actually been this person currently right in front of her the entire time.

Zephyr suddenly felt that she was very silly. She had taken a huge risk following Xiaoxiao, only for that man not to give a d*mn about her life and death; instead, it was Xia Fei who had saved her.

*Thud*

Xia Fei did not bother to show extra care to Zesyr despite her being a woman and tossed her onto the ground haphazardly before casually flinging a bottle of medicine to her.

“This medicine will help rapidly replenish your strength; drink it,” Xia Fei instructed sternly. “I saved you this time but won’t be doing it again. If you wanna live, you’ll have to persevere on your own.”

Zesyr blinked, staring at this strange man before him. It seemed like Xia Fei had saved her not out of the kindness of his heart but out of his desire to find out just how strong the fiend blade was. Now that he was done with that, he no longer cared whether she lived or died.

Suddenly

The expression on Xia Fei’s face changed drastically, his eyebrows knitting tightly.

Zephyr followed Xia Fei’s gaze, only to see that the fiend blade in its case had struck Xiaoxiao at this time!

There were two mounds of dust beside the man, which had been hiding the two elite bodyguards, the Zheng brothers, that the Xiao Clan had hired for this seventh young master. It had only been a few seconds, yet these two brothers had already been drained into nothing by the fiend blade! Meanwhile, Xiaoxiao was also undergoing a shocking transformation!

“Arghhh!”

Xiaoxiao’s cries were pained, but he did not rapidly age until he was turned into dust like everyone before him. The veins on Xiaoxiao’s arms bulged and spread across his body all the way to his face; as such, the originally delicate face of Seventh Master Xiao had turned grotesque!

This was by no means a good omen, for it meant that the picky fiend blade had actually selected Seventh Young Master Xiao!

“Enemy!”

Xia Fei made a split-second decision, and with a forceful thrust of his leg, he sprinted off at his fastest speed!

*Schwing*

White Dragon’s Screech was immediately unsheathed and pointed right at Xiaoxiao!

That fiend blade had already presented a tremendous pressure on Xia Fei even without a master, so there was no need to mention how much worse it could get once it merged with Seventh Young Master Xiao. Even a fool could tell that they would become a crazy existence!

The only solution was to kill Seventh Young Master Xiao! This would ensure that the fiend blade would remain in a master-less state!

*Swoosh*

Near lightspeed, Xia Fei fiercely swung his white sword as he exerted all his strength to deliver a blow!

However, right as the tip of White Dragon’s Screech reached Seventh Young Master Xiao, a formless force suddenly appeared, and like a storm that had been long-brewing, Xia Fei was immediately blown away!

Ultimately, Xia Fei was still under the influence of the immense pressure around him, and it was impossible for him to demonstrate 100% of his abilities. He felt his arm turn numb as he went hurtling backward, fast.

“There’s still someone else?!” Xia Fei gritted his teeth and looked around, only to realize that Great Soul Hunter Cai Kangnian was standing beside Xiaoxiao since who knew when, and that attack just then had come from the man.

From the very beginning, Cai Kangnian had been staying out of the matter, watching everything with cold, calculating eyes. Now, he had finally chosen his side, and unfortunately, it was against Xia Fei!

Lightly shaking his head, Cai Kangnian looked at Xia Fei with a complex expression on his face. Meanwhile, Xiaoxiao had already become more and more frantic. Everyone saw as he used all his strength in one hand to pull out that fiend blade from the black case!

*Zing*

That fiend blade finally appeared, and it was Gloomscale, an over-two-meter-long weapon!

Like a sharp and elongated rhombus, it was pitch-black and grim-looking!

*Boom*

A violent shockwave ripped through and filled the hall. The moment the fiend blade Gloomscale appeared, everyone got buffeted away. The gigantic burst of energy that surged from the blade swiftly dominated Xiaoxiao’s body. When everyone looked again, they saw that Seventh Young Master Xiao had a completely blank expression on his face, which was so pale it radiated in this hazy gloom.

“Get ready to flee,” Xia Fei whispered to Zesyr Night.

Zephyr was startled but soon nodded her head with a frown.

The ability that Gloomscale demonstrated was completely the same as Nirvana’s. They were both fiend blades, with the only purpose of existence being to devour and drain everything in its path. The difference between the two was that Nirvana did not infringe upon Xia Fei’s mind, while the Gloomscale had very quickly gotten Seventh Young Master Xiao under its control.

At this point, only a few dozen people were still alive in the repair dock, and all of them only knew one another superficially. Like a clod of scattered sand, it was almost impossible to defeat Seventh Young Master Xiao who now wielded the fiendish blade, Gloomscale, under such a situation. A portion of the energy that Gloomscale had absorbed just then had already transferred to Xiaoxiao’s body, and that man was very powerful right now! Gloomscale at this point was also much stronger! “Follow me!”

*Clap*

Xia Fei shouted and grabbed hold of Zesyr, charging toward the exit. There was an energy barrier present, which Xia Fei planned to use his Law of Primal Chaos on to get through. His plan was to return to Silver Specter and leave this place!

Aside from the Law of Primal Chaos’s subversive power, Xia Fei could not think of anything else in his arsenal that could deal with Gloomscale. However, the Law of Primal Chaos was not a power he could control. The fiendish blade, Nirvana, had been formed due to the Law of Primal Chaos, so there were only two possible outcomes if Xia Fei used this heaven-defying law power against Gloomscale.

Either it would destroy the weapon or it would make Gloomscale all the more stronger!

The destruction of Gloomscale would, of course, be a superb outcome, but if the Law of Primal Chaos unreasonably reversed the trait and turned that already unparalleled fiend blade into something even deadlier, then Xia Fei would end up in an even more dire straits compared to his current situation. This was why Xia Fei would never use the Law of Primal Chaos, unless it was his very last choice!

*Rumble*

Xia Fei threw a fist right at that energy barrier, directly shattering it!

At the same time, Xia Fei pulled his hand back and, in a pitching motion, tossed Zesyr out! That was because Xiaoxiao had already arrived right behind him with Gloomscale, and its sinister edge was just twenty centimeters away from him!

‘What a quick sneak attack!’ Xia Fei used Crafty Approach to hastily evade the incoming

blow.

Aside from dealing with the sneak attack, Xia Fei had to deal with the distinctly disadvantageous heavy pressure shrouding the place. Not only would every move he make use up several times the energy he had to, the speed at which he executed these moves would also be many times slower!

Compared to before, Xia Fei’s Crafty Approach dodges could have very easily slipped past this sneak attack without any problem, but now, when he ducked his shoulder, he realized that he failed to evade his calf in time!

“Awoo!”

Furball howled frenziedly and, with a burst of strength, launched himself right at Gloomscale’s blade like a towed cannonball!

Xia Fei had been coaxing forbearance in Furball the entire time. It could not be helped, for Gloomscale was a devouring soul weapon, and Furball was an energy-type Holy Beast. The two were simply incompatible with each other, and Furball would not only lack any advantage against Gloomscale, it could even very likely cause him to lose his life!

However, seeing that Xia Fei was in danger right now, how could Furball continue to remain calm? This was why the reckless ball chose to attack! He was ready to exchange his life for Xia Fei’s!

Furball was already positioned in front of the fiendish blade, Gloomscale. The situation was at a critical juncture, and the blade would cut into his fur in the next second!

This was when a sharp whistle of slicing air rang, and a dark shadow came cutting in!

Nirvana!

It was Xia Fei’s fiend blade!

*Clang*

The sound of metal clashing against metal reverberated. Xia Fei’s Nirvana had arrived like a bolt of lightning, and it actually sent that fiend blade Gloomscale flying off upon collision!

This one hit saved Furball’s life!

The white glowing blur did not stop in time, and it penetrated through several metal alloy walls! This was evidence of just how reckless Furball had been, and how much strength he had put into his one attack!

Even Xia Fei felt a wave of ease washing over him. That pressure, which had been restricting him the entire time, was gone, and he could feel his body lightening up once more.

*Tap*

Xia Fei twisted in mid-air and landed firmly on the ground. With one hand extended, Xia Fei grabbed Nirvana from the air while he held White Dragon’s Screech with the other! He was now evenly matched with the enemy, this already crazed Seventh Young Master Xiao!

“To hell with you! I wanna see for myself, my blade against yours, just which one is more fiendish!” Xia Fei waved one arm out, pointing at Seventh Young Master Xiao with Nirvana. This person had nearly caused Furball to lose his life, so Xia Fei’s eyes, at this point, had already become two burning embers of anger! His madness was showing!

A decisive battle was imminent!

Fiendish blade, Nirvana versus fiendish blade, Gloomscale!

On board the Silver Specter, Fuchen heaved a long sigh of relief, his face somewhat paler than usual.

In front of him was a very small array constructed with four soul vessels. Each was placed at a corner, and there was this obvious glowing energy connection that pulsed between each.

This was the array that had countered the soul array, which was exerting pressure on Xia Fei!

While Fuchen might have succeeded, he had also expended a lot of energy in doing so, and he visibly weakened following this.

“It’s been years since we last saw each other, yet here you are still causing trouble for me.” A voice from outside the warship floated in. Fuchen looked outside the warship’s window, and an elder wearing a black and white long robe could be seen standing alone outside This elder, who looked to be about the same age as Fuchen, shook his head repeatedly with both hands behind his back.

Smiling, Fuchen puffed out his chest and replied, “I could say the same about you. You’re still as unscrupulous as you were all those years back.”

These two were technically foes, yet Fuchen and this elder were smiling back at one another, showing vague sympathy and kindredness between them.

Calmly making his way off the warship, Fuchen stood about several dozen meters away from that elder. Their eyes met from afar, and the air around them stirred restlessly. The wind picked up and raged around them!

“It’s too bad that you’ve gotten old, so you’re still too late. I already found someone with a quasi-dark constitution; I just didn’t expect that person to be Xiaoxiao from the Xiao Clan,” that elder spat with disdain. “A distinguished major clan? D*gsh*t! The degree of darkness in the Xiao Clan’s only son is so frightening even you will be chilled! You stupid fool, to think you’d still be protecting the interests of these major clans!”

Fuchen was slightly surprised. When Radix passed on Xia Fei’s message to him that there was a high-grade dark soul weapon, Fuchen had already foreseen what was about to happen. It was just that Fuchen was a little taken aback to learn that Seventh Young Master Xiao was black-hearted enough to control that grade 7 fiend blade.

However, very soon, Fuchen smiled knowingly. “Honestly, I’m not really that shocked, for I also already met a brat who’s truly fiendish. Now, that’s a real fiend!”
