“Don’t kill him, that’s Seventh Young Master Xiao!” Anzu Night suddenly called out from behind Xia Fei.
The siblings from Venus of Eternal Night had actually already arrived, but in that fierce assault just now, how could either of them intervene? It was not child’s play to fight at a disadvantage. They needed powerful individuals like Oro and Xia Fei, so the siblings could only watch the battle unfold from the sidelines.
At the end of the day, Anzu was from the esteemed Night Clan, and he had received a high level systematic education. They didn’t know what method he had used to discern that the monster batling Xia Fei was actually the Xiao Clan’s Seventh Young Master, so he had shouted out to stop them.
The Xiao Clan adored Xiao Xiao. Forget killing him, if Xia Fei even harmed this young man, a horde of crazed women would have it out for him. Anzu had reminded Xia Fei of this purely out of the kindness of his heart.
Unfortunately, Anzu’s kind intentions were completely ignored by Xia Fei. Let an enemy go? That was never Xia Fei’s style!
He thrust his fist with all his might, the air howling from the momentum!
At that moment he gathered his energy, Xia Fei had already imbued his fist with the maximum power of his Law of Primal Chaos!
Level Seven Law of Primal Chaos! From Level One to Three, it was considered to be at the primary standard; from Level Four to Six, it was considered intermediate. Xia Fei had already cultivated it to the advanced standard! One more step, and he would reach the apex! It would be transformative!
That punch landed squarely on the chest of the monstrous Seventh Young Master!
The move itself was nothing huge. The force was nothing shocking, but it was chaos nonetheless! It seemed calm, yet it was capable of turning black into white! It was the most unreasonable Law power!
*Bang*
The monstrous Seventh Young Master Xiao was sent flying straight out. He spat out a disgusting thick phlegm, completely incomparable to the suave and good-looking Young Master Xiao. The difference between him now and before was akin to that of dogsh*t and an absolute beauty.
“Crap!” Shu Yuhe gasped from afar, almost as if he was truly concerned about Xiao Xiao. He was trembling, ignoring his fellow comrades as he went charging right to Seventh Young Master Xiao.
Xia Fei’s philosophy in life had always been to beat the enemy while they were down. He would feel as if he was disappointing himself if he did not exploit the opportunity that he had been given.
As Xiao Xiao’s body went flying in mid-air, Xia Fei began to hurl his weapons straight at him. Xia Fei’s concerted attack at extreme speeds created a colorful rainbow flurry as he rained down blows on Xiao Xiao with White Dragon’s Screech, Fiend Lock, and Peacock Blue.
Xiaoxiao was sent back down after being so brutally bombarded, creating a huge crater the moment he crashed into the ground. The passageway seemed like it could no longer hold on, and it gradually began collapsing.
“Scatter!” came the screaming order. Everyone heard Shu Yuhe’s spiteful shout, and those Dark Spiritualists did not hesitate to beat a retreat while the passageway was collapsing.
“Trying to run away?! Not that easy!” Oro and Xiang Guaghai both yelled out and went charging after them, but Xia Fei grabbed hold of each man and dragged them back to his side.
“Don’t chase an enemy that has nowhere to go; the priority here should be saving Fuchen!” Xia Fei frowned.
It was only at that moment when everyone realized Fuchen was still lying on the ground. It was unclear if he was dead or alive. As long as their enemies still lived, there would come a day that they could find and kill them, but if their friend were to die, then that would be final. Behind Xia Fei’s madness was an analytical mind and extraordinary calm, so he knew exactly what he ought to be doing and clearly distinguished what was more important.
“Undying old man, are you okay?” Ulan held Fuchen and shook him vigorously.
“Make way! Help guard our surroundings!” Xia Fei ordered. At the same time, he placed his hands on Fuchen’s temple, transferring his Spirit Energy to Fuchen’s body. Xia Fei was a Spiritualist of Healing, and his Spirit Energy would have a greater effect than any miraculous pill or medicine.
Standing to his left and right, Oro and Xia Guanghai protected Xia Fei, while Ulan waited anxiously by the side. As for the siblings from Venus of Eternal Night, all they could do was sigh. Xia Fei attacking Seventh Young Master Xiao was not ideal given how crazy the women of the Xiao Clan were. No one else was willing to provoke them, at any rate!
Xia Fei inadvertently stole a glance at Ulan’s sleeve. His hand had retreated when they were at a critical juncture of their fight, almost as if he had planned to release something from inside his sleeve. However, Ulan seemed to be very reluctant to throw it out, and he did not end up doing so.
Xia Fei’s curiosity had always been strong, and he could not help but wonder just what this prized treasure of Ulan’s was.
“His seventh brain region has been sealed?!” Xia Fei blurted out, stunned.
The situation was a lot more severe than he first believed. Fuchen was not only severely injured, his seventh brain region had been sealed off, as well! Fuchen was a Peak Spiritualist, a self-proclaimed orthodox spiritualist who could use both Soul and Spirit Energy. How could someone have reduced him to such a state?!
“What should we do?! Without his brain region active, Fuchen will be a cripple!” Ulan panicked.
With a furrowed brow, Xia Fei said solemnly, “We don’t have much time. If we don’t immediately release Fuchen’s seventh brain region, it could very well cement into irreversible blockages. This is similar to a coursing river, where if it gets blocked for too long, it could very well dam up, and might not be divertable again!”
Xia Fei was speaking euphemistically. The truth of the matter was that the higher level an expert was, the scarier it was to have their seventh brain region sealed. The region was the source of the energy that flowed through their whole body. Without the support of the seventh brain region, a warrior would not have any strength to speak of, let alone fight with!
Just as how a lack of blood circulation could cause the body to react with necrosis,a body that was used to having Dark Energy flowing through it would have a frightening outcome if the energy was suddenly taken away from them!
Ulan was in somewhat of a daze. Of course he knew how scary it would be to have one’s seventh brain region completely sealed, and he was panicking as he kept asking Xia Fei over and over about what they should do.
“We have no choice. All I can do is forcibly clear this blockage for him. No matter what, we must first save his life,” Xia Fei said through gritted teeth.
This method was very dangerous. Xia Fei had no idea just what methods the enemy had wielded to seal Fuchen’s brain region, and forcibly removing the blockage in the brain region would be just as dangerous as what Xia Fei had experienced with Purple Jade all those years ago. Xia Fei had relied on medication for many years before recovering back to normal.
But given how things stood, there was no point in dwelling on that too much. The dangers increased the higher the warrior’s cultivation, and Xia Fei had no choice but to take the risk.
Getting Ulan to give him some space. Xia Fei gathered his concentration and was about to help guide Fuchen’s brain region, when all of a sudden, Xia Fei realized there was a very serious issue.
Why was Furball not by his side?!
…
The healing proceeded without a hitch. Xia Fei tried his best not to think about Furball. As a Holy Beast, Furball ought to be able to take care of itself.
Like a precise surgical scalpel, Spirit Energy was being directed from his fingertip into Fuchen’s brain. This act of opening up the brain region was very dangerous, far more difficult than the most complex craniotomy. Fortunately, Xia Fei had prepared himself with extraordinary concentration before. Had he been a common man, he might not have even have had the guts to attempt something so complex.
…
Several flashes of light suddenly appeared a distance away from Xia Fei. It was none other than Soza and several strangers who Xia Fei did not recognize.
Oro and Xia Gunaghai were quick to stand in their way to face them, but neither made a sound. At such a moment, everyone was afraid to disturb Xia Fei. After all, a life was on the line here. After some thought, the siblings also took up positions behind Oro.
Soza frowned. It seemed he was displeased with the boldness that Oro and Xia Guanghai were demonstrating. Just as he was about to say something, an elderly individual next to him reached out a hand to stop him. He pressed his finger to his lips in a shushing gesture.
Pointing with one hand, that elder directed the people beside him to look at Xia Fei, a look of bemusement on his face. A mixture of skepticism and approval could be seen in his eyes.
Soza was very surprised, because Xia Fei was in the middle of attempting an extremely difficult brain region assault surgery!
This sort of surgery was done without a surgical scalpel, and was completely dependent on the surgeon’s precise control of Spirit Energy. The seventh brain region was not large in the first place, so any attempts to attempt such a precise craniotomy in such a small space and with notoriously hard to control Spirit Energy was not something anyone could achieve without being a master with many years of specialized training.
By Xia Fei’s face, he looked no older than twenty-five. For someone of his age to dare attempt this surgery for someone else… It was hard to believe that someone with such self-confidence and daringness could exist!
Everyone was shocked, and stared closely at Xia Fei. Oro and Xia Guanghai could also sense that these people were not enemies, and quietly heaved sighs of relief. As warriors, they had of course learned to examine their enemy’s cultivation levels, and these newcomers were at a tier that was beyond the heavens. It made the ever-bold Oro and Xia Guanghai break out in cold sweat just thinking about having to fight them.
If that were to actually happen, neither of them would probably be able to trade even a single blow fairly!
…
The situation had turned a little bizarre once more. The gathered people were all watching Xia Fei perform his surgery. Meanwhile, Xia Fei’s state of complete focus left him treating the group of god-like individuals as empty air. He did not spare them even a single glance.
Avril had once said that her favorite sight was how Xia Fei looked when he was serious. She found it very alluring, and now many people were also looking at Xia Fei as he devoted his complete concentration to the task at hand. That level of concentration made it very easy for others to think of a word: detachment!
They watched as two of Xia Fei’s fingers trembled ever-so-slightly. Everyone was fighting a cold war within themselves, even Soza. Xia Fei’s concentration had already attracted everyone’s attention, and they felt as if they were the ones performing the surgery.
Xia Fei’s ten fingers suddenly began to make a flurry of motions!
All they saw was a mass of afterimages in constant movement. Pulling, tugging, pushing, knocking, all happening in a tenth of a second. Xia Fei had actually managed to do no less than ten thousand precise assaults, so fast that it left everyone dazed!
What made it even harder to believe was just how precise and steady his fingers moved, almost like a machine! There was no superfluous action, and not a hint of hesitation!
Xia Fei’s hands abruptly parted, and at the same time, a mouthful of blood spurted out from Fuchen’s mouth as the old man slowly opened his eyes.
Watching from afar, Soza, as well as the other Blue Blood Elites that had come along with him, were all in shock!
They had just personally witnessed a surgery to unblock a seventh brain region! Meanwhile, the one who had done this surgery had been a warrior from the Lower Five Stars, a young man in his twenties!
Zesyr Night hugged her brother, her eyes as wide as apricots. She was a young woman, after all, and the admiration she felt for Xia Fei had reached a point that made him irreplaceable in her heart. Watching Xia Fei concentrate had been such a magical experience that the young lady of Venus of Eternal Night had found herself entranced…
The elderly individual who had first stopped Soza could not help but applaud, “How thrilling! I must admit that what you did was a sight to behold!”
Xia Fei looked up and did not say a word. He had spent a large amount of his mental energy just now, and his face was rather pale from exertion.
Ulan hugged Fuchen and poured the medication that Xia Fei had previously prepared into Fuchen’s mouth. Though he was unable to speak at the moment, the color on Fuchen’s face was at least gradually coming back to him.
That was about when Furball returned without a sound. He jumped up and perched on Xia Fei’s shoulder, not even sparing a glance at the blue-skinned people who had arrived.
Furball seemed to be very weak, the fur all over his body no longer shiny. He closed his eyes.
“Where did you run off to, little rascal? I was really afraid that that Holy Beast Lonegleam Eagle had actually killed you!” Xia Fei’s first words were expressions of concern to Furball.
Though Furball was weak, its Aura was not. Xia Fei saw his pet raise his head up high and spit out a bloody chunk of flesh! He then crawled his way over beside Xia Fei’s neck, acting all cute.
Upon closer examination, Xia Fei realized that that chunk of flesh had actually been the nose of the Holy Beast Lonegleam Eagle!
What a crazy Furball! To think he had gone chasing after his nemesis, despite it being higher level than him!
