"Where did you learn that skill." The man shouted to Xiu Luo but the latter stay silent because he acquired it from his fellow clansman but he can't say it.
"Xu clan elder Xu Minghao saw me practicing sword skills and he gave me this skill. He told me to come to Xu clan if I learned it." Xu Minghao is an elder in Xu clan and he learned about the latter's name when he interrogated the Xu Yuan servant.
"The elder had given you the skill, but you try to kill Xu clansman do you know the consequences. " He was angry because his junior was killed by the latter but he don't know how to handle the situation as he has not good wits. His cultivation base second rank and he had good skills because Xiu Luo killed the third rank foundation establishment cultivators but he lost to him in skill contest.
"Senior I didn't know you are from Xu clan if I know I would have not attacked your junior, please forgive this junior." Xiu Luo said as he for forgiveness.
"You come with me to the...kukh...you..."the man was horrified as he turned and watched the person's face who stabed him from the back.
Xiu Luo didn't get up quickly because he know that the latter will introgate about the Void splitting sword strike.
As he had guessed the man start interrogating him, the man may be good in cultivation but he is slow witted, before also he told Xiu Luo to leave and now also the man stay put but didn't attack the latter.
Suddenly on Xiu Luo face a small smile appeared. There are still four people left in his sense range, the Xu clan member fainted due to severe injury but he didn't die and the immortal sect disciples were injured during previous battle, the girl is watching the battle from the sidelines with her senior brother but her senior brother aura is increasing aand decreasing during the whole fight its like he is hesitating to make a decision to intervene in the battle as his strength is increasing and decreasing.
...
Burning flame immortal sect disciple panicked when he saw the intense battle between the two, the blindboy is attacking and defending the spear trajectories which he didn't able to do.
"Tusk.." he clicked his tongue in frustration. He has a dark gloomy expression. He is the disciple of immortal sect but he didn't able to do that while the latter is blind who can't even see and fighting at the same level as the man.
Then the outcome of the battle came out. The blindboy lost to the man.
Then he saw the blindboy was kneeling while holding the sword, seeing this he brought the sword and while they talking each other he moved behind the man and stabbed the sword.
"Kukh...cough .. you..." The man turned his face and before he finished his sentence, the disciple removes the sword and again stabbed him. And the man died like this.
"Cough..." Xiu Luo observed all this through the spirit sense technique. Then he coughed up blood as h pretended well the injuries are real but he spat too much blood and turned to look innocent while facing the immortal sect disciple.
The girl also watched what happened entirely when the man died by her senior brother she was happy but when she heard coughing sound she went to Xiu Luo.
"Are you okay ? " the girl came to Xiu Luo and said in a soft voice.
Xiu Luo sensing that the girl is coming towars him he became alert but he didn't show on his face.
"I am alright." Xiu Luo replied flatly as he don't want to affiliate with the other party.
"Junior sister back away from that person he is the enemy, have you not heard the earlier conversation between them." The disciple told her junior sister as he was declaring Xiu Luo as an enemy.
"Chuckle."
Listening this Xiu Luo chuckled softly because the boy was going to use him as a scapegoat by calling him brother but now he is calling him the enemy.
"Ha." He sighed softly what a shameless guy.
"This... but senior brother he saved us." The girl tried to convince her senior brother. Seeing this his gloomy expression became more darker.
"Brother as you said I came to save you and why are you calling me enemy." Xiu Luo said as he added the fuel to the fire.
The man expression became hedious listening to this and he knows the reason well. The blindbopy is taunting him by callling him brother.
"You bastard." He charged forward towards Xiu Luo he didn't recover from his fight but he knows that Xiu Luo just fought and lost and also just coughed up blood.
Sensing that disciple is going to attack him, Xiu Luo also charged forward and clash of swords could be heard.
But Xiu Luo was rebound back and fall back. Then he used river floating steps by adjusting his balance and kept the certain distance. And took the stance and gripped the sword with his both hand and slash towards the boy.
Void splitting sword strike
"You..." the boy didn't expect that blindboy still has spiritual qi left and the latter can't avoid the strike so he hold the sword ends horizontally to block the sword strike but he was rebound and crushed on the boulder now he limply laid there. He don't even have the strength to hold the sword. He is staring at Xiu Luo biting his lip.
Xiu Luo moved slowly towards the disciple while holding the sword, his steps were neither heavy nor light, his long black hair were floating in the air due to wind and he does not have any expression on his angular face and his eyes can't be seen due to blindfold but he looks graceful and elegant as he slowly walked but for the boy Xiu Luo looks like a soul reaper from the hell as he was wearing black cloths. He look terrified.
Before Xiu Luo go to the disciple the girl came in between them and the girl waas kneeling in front of Xiu Luo. She was injured by the Xu clan boy but was not recovered.
"Please don't kill my senior brother." She plead earnestly because she loved the latter as she pleaded for him.
Hearing this Xiu Luo want to laugh when her senior brother want to kill him the girl tried to stop the latter but now she is pleading him to spare her senior brother.
"Give me a reason not to kill your senior brother." Xiu Luo asked in a amused tone.
"This..." the girl had seen clearly from the beginning to the end . It is her senior brother who want to use the latter as a scapegoat and escape.
"Why the immortal sect disciples came in this vicinity." Xiu Luo asked her as to choose either you answer or he will die.
"Sir we came serching for the beast fire." The girl replied quickly she thought may he is giving a chance.
"Did you think me a fool. With your cultivation base you will get the beast fire." Xiu Luo angrily said to her.
The beast fire is rarer as they can only be find in the fire beasts and he knows that are beast fire are also devided into low middle and high grade as the middle grade is comparable to earth fire and high grade beast fire is comparable to heavenly fire. The beast fire will develop their fire level as the beast level increases. The beasts are classified from level one to level eight and the lowest quality beast fire will be developed by level three low grade beast and that is equal to the early rank core formation cultivators. And with these people cultivation bases they will only become the food of the beast, so he thought she is lying.
"Sir, we heard that the beast was seriously injured while fighting someone that's why we came to try our luck." The girl was frightend by the later gaze even though he is wearing blindfold and she addressed him with honorifics by callling him sir.
"Where did you learn learn the news and how many people know about it." He asked plainly this time as he want to determine how many people know about the location and news and if he could get the opportunity he does not want to miss it as he had to increase the strength of golden fire and black lightning.
"Sir, we heard from them and followed them here but they found us and we fought and you know what happen after that." The girl replied hastily.
'Hmm. Both of them are from Burning flame immortal sect which is second only to the immortal pill dao temple. In pill sects if you have a fire you will have a high status, higher the level of fire higher will be the status. So may be they are telling the truth.'
"Earlier I asked you why you came to this region, you still didn't answer. " he asked coldly because this is outskirts of the cultivation world and the border area of the cultivation and mortal world.
"Sir ..sir this ,we got a mission to investigate about the cause of missing people in the mortal world and we stayed at the inn and there we heard about beast fire." The girl frightend again when he was displeasure.
Hearing this Xiu Luo become silent.
