Chapter 1208 - 1208 Sheng Xiao: Bitchy
1208 Sheng Xiao: Bitchy
When Yu Huang saw Zhan Jiuxiao run away with Zhan Jianxue, she scowled in disdain. Yu Huang knew very well that although Zhan Jiuxiao said that he wanted to ‘strictly discipline’ Zhan Jianxue, it was actually to protect his daughter and prevent her from being attacked or questioned by Zhan Wuya.
Zhan Xiaoya’s parents, Zhan Jiuxiao’s younger brother and sister-in-law, had died in battle for the honor of the War God Clan. However, the hero’s daughter hadn’t been treated well and had even been bullied by Zhan Jianxue. If this matter spread to the clan, Zhan Jianxue would definitely be punished by those old fellows of the War God Clan.
Before the old fellows attacked, Zhan Jiuxiao brought his daughter back and locked her up in advance. It was both a punishment for Zhan Jianxue and a protection for her.
Even though she didn’t hear Zhan Jianxue’s apology, Yu Huang was helpless.
After all, Zhan Jianxue’s father was the number one expert in the Cang Lang Continent.
Yu Huang could only accept it and put up with the grievances.
Zhan Xiaoya’s gaze instantly dimmed when she saw Zhan Jiuxiao leave with Zhan Jianxue without saying a word to her.
But she was already used to it.
“Enough.” When Director Murong saw the setting sun that was about to set over the mountain, she said, “There’s still half an hour before the end of this intercontinental finals. Is there anyone else who wants to continue challenging?”
Her question was purely a formality.
Those who wanted revenge had already taken revenge and those who wanted attention had already gotten the limelight they wanted, so probably no one wanted to continue challenging.
As expected, after Yu Huang heard Director Murong’s words, she bowed to them respectfully and walked down the stage towards Sheng Xiao, Ye Qingyang, and the others.
Seeing Yu Huang return, Yin Rong and the others hurriedly surrounded her and asked her questions. They wanted to hear her talk about the fortuitous encounter under the Ice Blazing City.
Yu Huang naturally wouldn’t hide it from her good friends.
After Yu Huang turned on the soundproof wall, she told them what she and Sheng Xiao had seen and heard deep underground in Ice Blazing City.
“Does that mean that Senior Sheng’s damaged bones have been completely healed? No wonder he looked different during the battle today.” Beatrice pursed her lips and glanced at Sheng Xiao with a teasing smile as she joked, “So, the broken bellows have been repaired.”
Among them, only Beatrice, who was older than Sheng Xiao, dared to laugh at him.
Sheng Xiao’s bones had been healed, so he couldn’t help but laugh when he heard the adjective ‘broken bellows’.
“Yes, all these years, because my foundation has been damaged, no matter how I cultivate, my cultivation level has never improved and the spiritual energy that I absorbed into my body were quickly released by my damaged foundation. Now that my foundation has been completely repaired, I think my cultivation will be much smoother in the future.”
Donor pressed his palm on Sheng Xiao’s shoulder. He seemed envious, but he was actually relieved. “Good lord, if your cultivation has been suppressed for four to five years, won’t you improve by leaps and bounds in the future?”
“It’s not that exaggerated. On the other hand, let’s talk about you.” Sheng Xiao thought of how Dongshen Hanyu had bullied Donor today and reminded Donor earnestly, “From today onwards, the East God Palace and the Monster Sect are arch-enemies. Dongshen Hanyu probably resents the two of us now. Donor, you have to cultivate diligently after you enter the advanced academy. Only when you become stronger will you be able to defend yourself.”
Donor naturally understood the importance of this matter, so he said, “Don’t worry, I won’t slack off for a single day.”
After everyone congratulated Yu Huang for her gains under the Ice Blazing City, they quieted down.
After they quieted down, Yu Huang looked at Sheng Xiao with a smile. She didn’t say anything and just smiled at him.
When Sheng Xiao saw Yu Huang’s expression, he knew what she was going to ask.
Without waiting for Yu Huang to ask, Sheng Xiao took the initiative to ask, “Are you going to ask me about Zhan Xiaoya?”
Yu Huang crossed her long legs as she looked at Sheng Xiao silently with her arms crossed. Her face was pale from the consumption of spiritual power. “It’s good that you know.”
Sheng Xiao took out a bottle from his interspatial ring and handed it to Yu Huang. “Drink it while I talk.”
How could Yu Huang resist Sheng Xiao’s beverage?
As she drank it, her exhausted body gradually regained its strength.
Sheng Xiao said, “Zhan Xiaoya was already an intermediate-stage Supreme Master at that time. She met me in a desolate forest north of the Doomsday Battlefield and we fought.” Everyone was a competitor in the Doomsday Battlefield, so it was common for them to fight as soon as they met.
“Zhan Xiaoya underestimated my strength and was injured by my sword, then she fell to the ground and couldn’t get up. I naturally had no pity for the participant who took the initiative to provoke me, so after defeating Zhan Xiaoya, I left, but just as I was about to climb over a mountain, I heard her scream.”
Yu Huang, Yin Rong, and the others listened quietly, but Yin Rong asked anxiously, “Could it be that Zhan Jianxue had been following her the entire way?”
“Perhaps. When I heard a scream and turned to look down the mountain, I saw a young woman covered by the barrier membrane holding a long sword and cutting Zhan Xiaoya’s face. Although Zhan Xiaoya was seriously injured at that time, she wasn’t injured to the point of being unable to fight back. Seeing that she didn’t resist, I felt it was strange, so I listened carefully and heard the woman with the sword say something.”
Sheng Xiao shook his head helplessly. “I didn’t understand what Zhan Jianxue was saying at that time, but that woman’s tone was bitchy, so it was obviously not something good.”
Yu Huang raised her eyebrows and asked Sheng Xiao, “You’re a man, so how can you know the word bitchy?”
Sheng Xiao sneered. “When Jaris spoke to you just now, she sounded bitchy.”
Yu Huang was speechless.
She couldn’t help but think of the frivolous words Jaris had said before she left and immediately felt guilty.
Yin Rong and the others snickered.
They loved to see Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang fight.
Yu Huang knew that she was in the wrong, so she stopped discussing the word ‘bitchy’ with Sheng Xiao. She asked, “What happened after that?”
“I didn’t intend to be a busybody, but Zhan Jianxue refused to let it go after ruining Zhan Xiaoya’s face. She even peeled off Zhan Xiaoya’s clothes and left her there to fend for herself in the extreme cold while she left.” Speaking of the scene he saw back then, Sheng Xiao felt that Zhan Jianxue was simply too evil.
“As a woman, Zhan Jianxue knew how important appearances are to girls, so her act of deliberately cutting Zhan Xiaoya’s face was already vicious, but taking off her clothes was even more inhumane. I couldn’t stand it anymore, so I pretended to meet her by chance and snatched her Spirit Tool.” Sheng Xiao looked up at Yu Huang and said, “Later, when I reunited with you and saw the scorching sun, I gave you the umbrella, but I didn’t expect you two to bump into each other later and even lose an arm.”
