Hong Shaofeng really didn't want to oppose Ye Xiao. He truly had no solution when it came to Ye Xiao. If possible, Hong Shaofeng genuinely wanted to be friends with Ye Xiao, even just ordinary friends would do, at least not enemies. However, if Hong Shaofeng wanted to obtain the position of Clan Leader of the Hong Family in the Northern Territory, he had no choice but to kill Ye Xiao. Otherwise, given Hong Shaofeng's status, it would be difficult for him to become the Clan Leader of the Hong Family!
Therefore, at that moment, hearing Ye Xiao's mocking words, Hong Shaofeng's face turned extremely unsightly. Staring at Ye Xiao coldly, he said angrily, "Ye Xiao, I admit that I can't beat you, but you won't have it so easy today. The people I've invited are certainly more than a match for you. Humph, today you will realize the power of the Xuan Rank!"
Upon hearing Hong Shaofeng's words, Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile slightly. This guy actually thought he wasn't at the Xuan Rank. After all, when Ye Xiao first fought with Hong Shaofeng, the two had fought one-on-one. Hong Shaofeng understood then that Ye Xiao's strength was not much different from his own. At least at that time, he definitely wasn't at the Xuan Rank, otherwise how could he have escaped?
However, what Hong Shaofeng thought was not wrong. At that time, Ye Xiao's strength was indeed at the Yellow Rank Peak. If it weren't for Ye Xiao's cultivation of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, which was against the heavens, then Ye Xiao might have been killed by Hong Shaofeng. But what Hong Shaofeng would never have guessed was that because his Ice Frost Fist had caused Ye Xiao an internal injury, it had ended up being a blessing in disguise for Ye Xiao. Not only was his internal injury healed, but his Nine Yang Divine Skill had also made a breakthrough to the third stage, "Purple Vapor from the East"!
At that moment, Ye Xiao's strength surged to a level close to the Mid-stage Xuan Rank, so even if a Xuan Rank expert came now, Ye Xiao would at least have the ability to defend himself!
But Ye Xiao was also smart enough to know that he shouldn't reveal all of his strength. If he did, Hong Shaofeng would definitely look for a super expert to come after him, so...
After hearing Hong Shaofeng's words, Ye Xiao immediately feigned a look of surprise on his face and, with a trembling voice, said, "You... what did you say? They... they're actually Xuan Rank experts?"
Seeing Ye Xiao's face turn pale with fear and hearing his trembling voice upon learning about the Xuan Rank experts, Hong Shaofeng felt a lot better. And the two people brought by Hong Shaofeng felt extremely thrilled when they saw Ye Xiao, who had just shown disdain but now seemed terrified upon hearing they were Xuan Rank experts.
"San, is this the guy you wanted us to deal with?" Yu Laoer looked at Ye Xiao with disdain and said, "I mean, you're kidding me. Is such a person even worth our while? Why bother having the boss come here? I alone am more than enough to handle this!"
Upon hearing Yu Laoer's words, Hong Shaofeng's face flushed red. Although he was upset by Laoer's words, as they were full of contempt, Hong Shaofeng still said, "Second Brother, Ye Xiao's strength is indeed not bad. Maybe it's just that my own strength is too poor. Today, I'm counting on Big Brother and Second Brother!"
The boss was quite composed and said after looking at Ye Xiao, "I'm not an unreasonable person. If you have grievances with my brother's house, you must go to the Northern Territory to apologize. I can spare your life."
"Ah? Go... to the Northern Territory?" Ye Xiao found it difficult and said, "But I can't go anywhere right now. I'm busy with school every day!"
"F*** your school!" Yu Laoer, upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, immediately dashed forward with a flash of speed, strikingly fast. To Hong Shaofeng, it seemed as quick as lightning!
Seeing Yu Laoer's speed, the irritation Hong Shaofeng had felt towards him vanished. The man did indeed have the capital to be arrogant; such speed was something Hong Shaofeng could never achieve!
Yu Laoer's speed was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Ye Xiao, swinging a punch straight at Ye Xiao's chest!
Although Ye Xiao's face showed fear, his strength, after all, was apparent. Even though Yu Laoer had rushed at Ye Xiao without any warning, Ye Xiao had clearly seen him coming. Knowing what to expect naturally gave him the foresight to prepare in advance!
Ye Xiao quickly placed his hands in front of his chest and took a barely noticeable step backward. At that very moment, Yu Laoer's fist landed in the palm of Ye Xiao's hands!
At the same time, Ye Xiao's hands were imbued with a faint yellow True Qi.
Ye Xiao then 'whooshed' backward four or five meters until he hit the wall of the villa!
To onlookers, it appeared that Ye Xiao had been struck by Yu Laoer, but only Ye Xiao knew that he had released his True Qi, using the True Qi Gauze to protect his vitals. Thus, Yu Laoer's attack was greatly reduced. At the same time, Ye Xiao retreated using the Wind Shadow Steps, deflecting over eighty percent of Yu Laoer's attack!
So, although it seemed like Ye Xiao had been sent flying by the punch, in reality, Ye Xiao had not suffered any damage at all!
Ye Xiao being sent flying was a surprise not just for Hong Shaofeng but also for Yu Laoer, who knew he had only used less than fifty percent of his strength. Could Ye Xiao really not withstand even that much?
Yu Laoer was truly doubtful; this Ye Xiao was surely not as powerful as Hong Shaofeng had claimed!
However, after sending Ye Xiao flying, Yu Laoer immediately rushed at Ye Xiao again, but Ye Xiao quickly leaped to the side. Yu Laoer then pursued him once more!
Both the eldest and Hong Shaofeng stood together, their eyes naturally fixed on Ye Xiao!
Hong Shaofeng watched Ye Xiao with slight surprise. Ye Xiao's displayed strength was not strong at all, but his speed was indeed fast; even Yu Laoer found it extremely difficult to catch him!
"Ye Xiao's strength isn't great, but his speed is really fast!" Hong Shaofeng exclaimed as he watched Ye Xiao!
The eldest looked at Ye Xiao intently, then said to Hong Shaofeng, "The Fu family's Wind Shadow Steps!"
"What?" Upon hearing the eldest's words, Hong Shaofeng immediately looked at him with confusion and said, "Big brother, are you saying that Ye Xiao has learned the Fu family's exclusive Wind Shadow Steps from Nanxing City?"
The eldest nodded and replied, "At least from what we can see now, it's very similar to the Fu family's Wind Shadow Steps. Looking at Ye Xiao's strength, it doesn't seem strong. If he hadn't learned the Wind Shadow Steps, how could Laoer possibly not catch up to him?"
"No wonder I always feel outmatched when sparring with Hong Shaofeng. The root cause lies here," muttered Hong Shaofeng after hearing the eldest's words!
Meanwhile, in the midst of the battle, Ye Xiao moved lightly and deftly avoided Yu Laoer's attacks. Yu Laoer was infuriated; he really wanted to hit Ye Xiao, but every time Yu Laoer thought he was about to catch him, Ye Xiao would escape.
"Damn it, how can this guy run so fast?" Yu Laoer chased Ye Xiao, all the while muttering in confusion!
Seeing Ye Xiao constantly fleeing from Yu Laoer, Hong Shaofeng took his opportunity when Ye Xiao neared him. He lunged toward Ye Xiao in one swift step, his hand suddenly bursting with icy cold True Qi, his hands appearing as if they were encased in ice!
"Ice Frost Fist!" Hong Shaofeng bellowed, charging at Ye Xiao who was approaching him, and quickly released his Ice Frost Fist at the oncoming Ye Xiao. The punch was both swift and fierce, filled with intense chill.
If this Ice Frost Fist really did hit Ye Xiao, then the following Yu Laoer would certainly use his special move to strike Ye Xiao's back!
Although Ye Xiao was not afraid of an Ice Frost Fist from someone at the Yellow Rank Peak, if the attack from Yu Laoer, who had reached the Mid-stage Xuan Rank, hit him, Ye Xiao might not suffer a grave injury, but at least a minor one, especially since Ye Xiao hadn't used his True Qi Gauze yet!
Ye Xiao knew that once he used his True Qi Gauze, his strength would definitely be revealed,
and by then, even if he wanted to hide it, it would be impossible!
At this very moment, Ye Xiao could completely unleash astonishing strength and take down both men in front and behind him, but since he didn't know the eldest's strength, and having already witnessed Xiong Daoliang's capabilities, Ye Xiao couldn't guarantee that there wouldn't be a second Xiong Daoliang in Minghai City; therefore, he dared not fully reveal his power!
In the nick of time, Ye Xiao suddenly found a depress on the ground at his feet. Under normal circumstances, Ye Xiao could have ignored this little pit, but now it seemed like a gift from heaven to him!
No sooner had Ye Xiao stepped into the pit, his whole body pitched forward as if he had stepped into empty air, and he fell heavily to the ground.
However, just as Ye Xiao hit the ground hard, Hong Shaofeng's Ice Frost Fist collided almost instantly with Yu Laoer's fist.
Seeing that the person across from him was Hong Shaofeng, Yu Laoer quickly retracted his Inner Power True Qi. Even so, a muffled explosion resounded!
Yu Laoer and Hong Shaofeng were thrown apart, both recoiling seven or eight meters backward, and that was after they had both contracted their Inner Power True Qi. If they hadn't, both could have suffered extremely severe injuries, especially Hong Shaofeng, who might have been gravely wounded!
Seeing Yu Laoer and Hong Shaofeng clashing fists, the eldest didn't realize that this was Ye Xiao's doing; he thought it was just Ye Xiao's luck.
Ye Xiao, who had deliberately thrown himself to the ground, immediately looked up in feigned surprise at both Yu Laoer and Hong Shaofeng, fear written all over his face, and deliberately blurted out, "You... you can't defeat me!"
When the eldest, Yu Laoer, and Hong Shaofeng heard Ye Xiao's words, they were both infuriated and amused. Naturally, none of them knew this was deliberate on Ye Xiao's part, but inwardly they all gave bitter smiles. Ye Xiao actually thought they truly couldn't do anything to him and even dared to say such things!
