Heavenly Opposers

127 Chapter 127

'I have a lot to deal with.....'

Knowing that his thought, actions, and everything about him were controlled, Xiao was beyond pissed, even more with the fact that he had even thoughts of not using his knowledge so as to not affect the 'plot', why shouldn't he use his advantages for himself? it's not like the 'characters' are his friends or something.

He will take what he wants and he will mess up this 'plot', the ones that controlled him didn't want him to mess with the flow of the true 'story' and Xiao has only one thing to say for those guys...

Fuck Off!!

If he does this that 'guy' might get weaker maybe he might even die but what does that have to do with him? so what if only the 'main character' could only deal with the issues of the future? was he Xiao to obediently place his fate in the hands of some stranger? was he like some obedient dog to run behind the 'plot' and make sure no changes happened?

'Hehehe....you want balance? you want to make sure that I won't go overboard?'

Xiao questioned himself, hoping his words would reach the one that wanted to control him, raising his head he clutched his hand tight, while his eyes narrowed,

'I will make sure to mess up this stupid control of yours, what you will be getting will be beyond what you could have ever thought!'

Xiao vowed, his eyes blazing with revenge in his cold calculative eyes, plans that would later shake the whole of the cosmos were beginning to birth in his mind but before that his eyes turned towards Teresa who was quietly looking at him from her throne, her eyes scanning him, trying to find out anything to be used.

Xiao looked at her, once again the both of them weighing each other out but this time Xiao's eyes weren't clouded over as before, standing straight he walked closer towards her, his small stature causing him to look up at her as she sat on her throne, Xiao could see that Teresa looked much more blurry than before,

"Boy, the thing before wa-"

"Let me stop you right there"

Xiao spoke raising his hand, making Teresa annoyed, making eye contact Xiao placed his hand down as he spoke,

"I know all the excuses that are going to come my way but let's be clear here, we both know how the world works, and what you were going to do was the most natural thing in the world"

Saying till here Xiao turned silent as both of them gazed at each other, soon a smile graced Teresa's face,

"I swear if you weren't in my domain and I know that no lies can be shown here, I would seriously wonder what you are, what kind of life did you go through?"

She asked with a hint of curiosity and admittance, to this Xiao shook his head as he continued,

"My life is mine and whatever I went through is mine, the only reason you even took this disrespect is because of my backing once again that's how it goes, the fear of the unknown is powerful"

"It indeed in"

Teresa said with a smile, seeing this Xiao too smiled,

"Since you tried to kill me I should do that too and you should know I really want to but I know that this is Li Lun's legacy, killing you will affect her path, in this cosmos the only one to teach her path is you"

"True"

Teresa agreed with a chuckle, she patiently waited for Xiao to lead the conversation to where he wanted, how could she not see that the boy was driving the conversation to get something for himself? if she couldn't see such an open play then she had lived in vain,

"So since I can't kill you, I want something else in return"

"What is it?"

Teresa asked, her eyes starting to shine as she gazed at the smile that was now splitting Xiao's face, a smile that was slowly beginning to wrap around her too. Raising his hand Xiao pointed at Teresa, a bloodthirsty smile blooming his face,

"Fight me"

"Oh~I pressure I will be holding back my strength and limiting it to your cultivation?"

Teresa asked with a prideful tone, the choice of being challenged birthing in her inner warrior, something that had just faded back with the loss of challenge in her life,

"It's been some time since I could go all out and fight and right now I am really pissed off, so I need to let off some steam"

Xiao spoke as he stretched his neck, his eyes staring to burn up,

"Being used to let off some steam, sigh.....how far have I fallen?"

? Teresa asked to this an annoying expression came to Xiao's face as he responded,

"Say that after you wipe the smile off your face"

"Ara~what smile~?"

Teresa said as she covered her mouth, her three eyes letting up in mischief,

"Looks like you are really happy to beat me up"

Xiao spoke seeing the radiant aura covering Teresa,

"Don't know what you are talking about"

She spoke after which she her throne disappeared and she landed on the ground, the land under Xiao started to get bigger and stronger, benefitting the fight that was about to take place, Li Lun who was still undergoing her rebirth was moved to a much more relaxing spot,

"Get beat up well, okay?"

Teresa said with a smirk, as a normal-looking bow appeared in her hand, the horn on her head seemingly lighting up, while the third eye on her forehead beamed,

"You are not even hiding it anymore"

Xiao replied as two swords appeared in his hand, ordinary swords of the same length, weight, and breadth, the cloak of death surrounding him became brighter, the red blood words written on them shinning which soon coated his two swords, both of the swords twisting before they became of two colors.

The sword Xiao held in his right hand was coated purple, an elegance, beauty, and pride filling the sword that now looked like a flame, on his left hand his other words became black, destruction, death, and danger being felt from it, holding the swords Xiao smiled,

"Astrid, Persefone, I am depending on you too"

Xiao spoke and to his response both the flames danced around wildly, Astrid was the name that Xiao gave to the purple flame, a name which it loved,

"This is going to be fun"

Teresa spoke and just as she did an arrow arrived an inch behind Xiao's head, a grey arrow burning with the power of void, just before it could reach Xiao his hands moved as he made a double cross behind him, cutting the arrow in two, his two flames destroying the arrow, albeit with some difficulty,

"Have to say, nice flames"

Teresa said as she held her bow on her shoulder, looking relaxed but Xiao wasn't fooled, his eyes narrowed in as he could see her body was tense and ready to move at any sign, she wasn't taking this battle lightly,

'A battle veteran, a cunning strategist, and a realistic fighter'

Within moments Xiao had analyzed Teresa's wide personality and possible fighting styles, the fighting style he had developed back in Ingrid coming back to him.

Among his skills, [Connection] had two sides both passive and active, the passive side making him feel more open and connecting, one that stayed open all the time, making him feel more connected to the people, while the active skill was placing a 'connection' on somebody, just like he did with his sister where he could share her pain, feelings, and suffering.

The rest of the skills were active skills that he needed to activate and for such activation, he needed the energy to sustain them, which Xiao along the road had found was his soul energy,

'Record and Analyze'

Xiao activated his second skill, his soul energy at a slow pace snapping away, soon Xiao started to record everything in his mind while analyzing all future paths that could be taken, his mind taking in all the characteristics of his opponent, and after the fight he would replay the fight within him, seeing what he could have done better,

"You are becoming more and more interesting"

Teresa said with a smile after which hundreds of arrows had already arrived around Xiao inches away for making him a porcupine but instead of fear Xiao smiled,

'This is going to be fun'
