Chapter 2755: Tears in front of the Fish, Xuanji’s Heartfelt (2)

He slapped his elbow again, and the severed hand that was reaching for his little junior sister was smashed back into Dao Xuanji’s cheek.
“Ah!”
Blood splattered, and Dao Xuanji couldn’t help but let out a cry of pain.
Xu Xiaoshou was relentless. He tore open Dao Xuanji’s abdomen with his claws, pulling out countless spirit threads from her body.
Puppet Manipulation Thread!
With the help of the Body of Devour, he quickly began to swallow the demonic aura of the Fourth Sword surrounding Dao Xuanji.
By maintaining a balance of the demonic aura, he could keep Dao Xuanji alive, causing her to lose all combat strength while keeping her mind clear.
Then… she would answer his questions!
“If you move again, you will die.”
Upon hearing this, Dao Xuanji became irritable.
She had never suffered such humiliation, being reduced to a state where even her death was controlled by someone else.
Her body suddenly swelled as she tried to self-destruct, just as she had done before.
But Xu Xiaoshou was ready. He was already prepared after the lessons of the past.
The moment the Engulfing Power was cut off, the demonic aura of the Fourth Sword surged, causing Dao Xuanji to go berserk, her movements abruptly halted again.
…
It was utterly humiliating!
Under the gaze of thousands of people in Jade Capital City, they couldn’t bear to see the current Hallmaster of the Holy Divine Palace being humiliated in such a manner.
“Xu Xiaoshou!”
Fang Wenxin, Zhong Yuanzi, and the others, who had recovered from their injuries after the earlier explosion, couldn’t stand it any longer. They immediately shouted and charged forward.
Boom!
With a spin of the Life Dao Disc, Xu Xiaoshou transformed into an Ultimate Giant in an instant.
Jade Capital City was suddenly plunged into fear once again.
The giant’s palm sent the two demi-saints flying, smashing them into spatial fragments, where they disappeared without a trace.
After shrinking back down, Xu Xiaoshou returned. He turned sideways in mid-air, holding the Flame Python in his hand, and with a single slash behind him, unleashed a roaring blaze.
“Those who cross the boundary, die.”
The entire arena fell into a deathly silence.
Everyone watched the black-robed, nine-tailed figure who had publicly humiliated Hallmaster Xuanji, and they could feel an overwhelming killing intent.
Xu Xiaoshou was furious.
When he saw his little junior sister have such a massive reaction just from glancing at Dao Xuanji, he didn’t fully understand what she was going through at that moment, but it was clear that she was enduring immense pain.
Mu Zixi’s consciousness had emerged as a means to escape pain. If she was reacting this way, the Lei family must have suffered severe injuries.
“Xu Xiaoshou…”
The young girl’s body trembled lightly, tears streaming down like rain. She clung to her senior brother’s hand, too afraid to let go, her voice filled with fear.
Xu Xiaoshou sheathed his sword and turned to her, gently rubbing her head before closing her eyes softly.
“Sleep for a while. You’ll feel better after you sleep.”
He pulled his little junior sister into his arms and activated his Engulfing Power.
But instead of using the Life Dao Disc to supply Life force to Mu Zixi, he began to plunder it.
“Sizzle…”
As her Life force dissipated, Mu Zixi’s eyes rolled back, her “juvenization” was undone, and her body gradually lengthened, filling out the loose dress she wore.
Finally, Xu Xiaoshou felt that the boiling soul fluctuation of the person in his arms had calmed. Only then did he stop the Engulfing Power.
“Whoa!”
A massive Reborn Lily bloomed in the void.
Mu Zixi fell into a deep sleep. When she opened her eyes again, stepping through the black and white God Devil Mist, it was Lei Xi’er, with even her hair now returned to a silvery white.
Fury was wordless.
Vengeance was silent.
The one who had the most right to scream and vent all her past emotions was calm after she awoke.
“You can take revenge. No matter the method, I’ll be by your side. Absolutely!” Xu Xiaoshou said softly.
Lei Xi’er looked up at the face in front of her and gently shook her head.
She broke free from Xu Xiaoshou’s embrace. With her God Devil Eyes, she glanced at the figure shrouded in devilish energy.
“Dao Xuanji…”
She said nothing more.
Lei Xi’er lowered her gaze, looking down at Jade Capital City.
…
“What is he trying to do!”
Fang Wenxin was held back by Zhong Yuanzi.
The two Saints stopped before the white flame sword mark. After returning, they dared not step forward.
The Ultimate Giant hadn’t truly fought them. He had only slapped the two away from the Arena.
But regardless of the distance, for demi-saints, it could be reached in an instant.
“We can’t go over.” Zhong Yuanzi was unusually clear-headed and advised, “When I’m in my ghost beast form, Xu Xiaoshou can swallow most of my abilities and then reflect them.”
“Your Blood Shadow copper coin can’t capture the soul of Greedy the Cat Spirit anymore. If you rely on brute strength, you won’t withstand the giant that can tear apart a Holy Emperor!”
“Right now, Xu Xiaoshou isn’t much weaker than either of us. Even in a death battle, it’s very likely we’d be the ones to fall.”
“If we want to stop him, there’s only one person in the Arena who can do it…”
Fang Wenxin followed Zhong Yuanzi’s gaze, looking at Elder Yu.
But Elder Yu’s focus wasn’t on the Arena. He was holding his great-granddaughter’s hand, softly trying to persuade her of something.
“Who is she looking for?”
Fang Wenxin didn’t eavesdrop. Instead, he turned back to the Arena and looked at Lei Xi’er.
To his surprise, he didn’t see any hatred in the girl’s eyes towards Dao Xuanji. There wasn’t even the desire to stab or cut her.
Once she regained consciousness, it seemed that something more important than revenge occupied her mind…
Searching for someone?
…
Lei Xi’er was indeed searching for someone.
She didn’t know what had transpired in the world during her unconsciousness.
Xu Xiaoshou had managed to fight his way from the Central Yuan world to Jade Capital City and capture Dao Xuanji.
But she knew that accomplishing all of this was no easy feat!
Since there was now an opportunity to reveal past secrets to the public, venting personal emotions was secondary. The primary goal was to restore the honor of the Lei family.
