Chapter 4: The Good Mans Troubles (Part 2)

  Chapter 4: The Good Person, Xiao Si (Part 2)

  After meeting Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao, who were famous in Shandong, Xiao Si left the coffin shop and returned to Liu Garden.

  He rode on horseback, thinking about how to secretly get Qin Qiong out of the capital, while also thinking about making a fortune, with countless thoughts in his mind.

  Suddenly, Xiang Xiaosi's spiritual platform seemed to be pricked by a needle, vaguely reflecting a faint and elusive figure, silently and swiftly swooping down from the rooftop of a small alley behind him at an unbelievable speed.

  Xiao Si was startled and quickly turned around, unable to look back as he dodged and weaved to avoid the attack.

  Only a hair's breadth away, a blood-red giant palm slammed onto the saddle, bursting forth a fierce red mist.

  Right behind the fourth child's mount, it didn't even have time to let out a scream before turning into a puddle of blood and flesh, its entire skeleton shattered to pieces, dead on the spot.

  Xiao Si hid under the horse's belly, most of his strength was used to support the mount, but he was still shocked by a fierce and piercing energy that made his chest feel suffocated. He let out a low hum and flew sideways, exclaiming: "Who is this son of a bitch? Is it humanly possible to launch a sneak attack at this time?"

  He glanced sideways with the corner of his eye and suddenly shouted: "Yingyang Old Demon, you rascal!"

  Only a white-robed old man was seen flying in the air like a snowy eagle, his arms shook and his left leg kicked out, his toes seemed to be a sharp gun tip that pierced his own chest.

  Xiao Si desperately rolled on the ground, unable to release a Dao symbol in time, and could only grit his teeth and shoot out six dull Soul-destroying Flowers.

  "Hahaha——" Six Soul-destroying Flowers burst open in mid-air, releasing a dazzling golden-blue light that transformed into sharp flying wheels shooting towards Eagle Yang Old Demon.

  The Eagle Demon let out a low, muffled snort, and two snow-white sleeves without blemish fluttered in the windless air, sending the six wilted Soul-destroying Flowers flying with a "ding ding ding" sound. His body was almost unaffected as he charged straight at Xiao Si.

  This was the first time in Xiao Si's life that he had encountered a top-notch demon head from the Situ boundary, and his opponent, regardless of his identity, actually took the initiative to launch a sneak attack, as the saying goes, "people have their own way, demons have their own way".

  At the critical moment of life and death, Xiao Si couldn't care whether he was human or demon. Ling Jue tightly locked his eagle-like stance as Lao Yao kicked with his left foot. Mobilizing all his strength, he circulated the Zhu Que Seven Stars, shouting loudly as he flew out to counterattack.

  "Bang——" Seven consecutive kicks like plum blossoms between bamboo shoots, but due to the speed being too fast, it sounded like a single muffled thud.

  Xiao Si's legs were about to break off in pain, her heart was pierced by a thousand knives. With a swift motion of her hands, she threw out all the remaining twelve withered and wilted Soul-destroying Flowers.

  The eagle swooped down, and the old demon was familiar with the Tangmen's hidden weapons. He didn't want to take risks, so he dodged sideways and swept his sleeve across.

  "Ding ding ding......" Twelve eerie and deadly "Dismal Soul Flowers" burst forth like star-shaped projectiles, embedding themselves into the wall nearby.

  Xiao Si finally grasped a thread of opportunity, gritted his teeth and brought out the last Heavenly Thunderbolt Seal, unleashing it with all his might.

  "Clang!" The old demon Eagle Yang swiftly drew out a handle of eagle wing magic blade, the speed of his action almost exceeded the limit that the naked eye could track.

  "Boom, boom, boom!" A string of thunderous heavenly thunders rolled in, and he actually relied on a single Eagle Wing Magic Blade to forcibly disperse all nine Heavenly Thunders!

  Xiao Si's eyes widened in shock, and he silently cursed Tang Xiao San for bragging and putting people's lives at risk - did this old hawk look like it had been seriously injured by him before?

  But the old demon Eagle Yang was also shocked, he had been closed for many years to break through the forgotten state of mind, but he did not expect that three disciples were killed in the battle of Tiger Gorge, two died and one was disabled, one of whom was his own son Yin Shengyang.

  After hearing the news, Eagle Yang was furious and broke through the barrier, first killing Cheng Xianhu and Yu Biao, and then having a fierce battle with Tang Hechuang, resulting in both being seriously injured.

  He did not return to Beimang Mountain, but instead searched for a secluded mountain cave on the outskirts of Chang'an to recover from his injuries. After he had mostly recovered from his internal wounds, he again snuck into Chang'an City with the intention of killing Tang Hezhou to avenge his son's death.

  It turned out that yesterday was the opening ceremony of the Anfu Bureau of the Huitou Bureau. The Eagle Yang old demon saw Ye Fashan and other masters gathering in Liu Garden, and he was also very jealous. He changed his plan and prepared to challenge the easy one first, so Xiao Si had the good fortune to become the first soft peach.

  But who would have thought that this little guy was extremely slippery and managed to dodge his own three killing moves in a row. If it were somewhere else, it wouldn't be a big deal, but this is in Chang'an City, even the Eagle Yang Old Demon wouldn't dare to be careless, just hoping for a quick battle!

  He sliced open the lightning with his left hand, and with his right hand, he condensed his five fingers into an eagle's claw, swooping down to grab Xiao Si's face.

  "Hiss——" Xiaosan's body suddenly spread out a circle of emerald green light ripples from below, and his body sank down into the ground.

  "Earth Concealment!" The old eagle demon suddenly retracted its claws, grasped the Eagle Wing Magic Blade with both hands, and shouted sternly with a flash of blood light on his face: "Get out!"

  "Ka ka ka——" The Demon Blade slashed onto the ground, and a burst of snow-white electric light shot out from the blade's edge, like a spirit snake drilling into the earth.

  "Rumble rumble——" The ground suddenly cracked open a terrifying trench over ten zhang long and three zhang deep, with countless fissures spreading and expanding underground.

  A figure emerged, shouting loudly as he spat out a mouthful of blood, "Who built this road? It's not even solid at all!" He reached out and grabbed the Python Sea Magic Cauldron, releasing nine-headed magic pythons.

  The eagle swooped down, the old demon saw that this little guy's cultivation was not high, but he had used hidden weapons and talismans, and now he had even taken out a magic treasure, which made him somewhat headache, his body shape did not retreat but advanced, relying on strength to bully the weak, swinging his knife to slash at the magic python.

  "Puff puff puff——" One by one, the python's heads disappeared under the knife edge, and Eagle Yang Lao Yao gradually felt his old chest wound aching again, after all, this series of killing moves had consumed a lot of his magic energy.

  Watching the python sea demon unable to withstand the old monster's sudden attack, Xīao Sì flung out another Hundred Ghosts Night Marching Talisman and shouted loudly: "Save me!!"

  "Eagle Soaring Old Monster laughed: 'Are you afraid of death? It's too late to be afraid!' He thought about how he had dominated the world for over 80 years, and was known as one of the 'Seven Great Heavenly Monsters' along with Spotted Old Monster. Although his name wasn't elegant, it still made countless righteous cultivators flee in fear. If he couldn't even take down a naive little kid's head within three to five rounds, what was the point of being a monster?!"

  He once again operated the Blood Domain Divine Technique, and in an instant, the Eagle Wing Demon Blade turned a deep crimson color like the sun. A burst of eerie light surged forth like a tidal wave, dispersing the black energy that was rushing towards him. The blade's tip was pointing directly at Xiao Si's heart!

  At the critical moment, a clear whistle suddenly came from behind and above, two cold demon swords flew like arrows shot from a bowstring, piercing through the back of the old demon.

  The old demon secretly shivered and said: "This kid has a helper!"

  His back's protective magic shield was violently fluctuating, the spiritual platform warning signs rapidly expanding. The two approaching were high-ranking experts of Tong Yu realm. If he didn't take action, he could certainly kill Xiao Si with one slash, but with both swords coming down together, there would be no way to escape unscathed.

  In the end, the old demon Eagle Yang was unwilling to roar in anger and suddenly rose up, counterattacking with another eagle wing magic blade.

  "Ding ding" two loud noises, sparks flying everywhere. Only then did I see clearly that the two people who came were two middle-aged women wearing straw hats and gray clothes.

  The eagle soared, the old demon was stunned, and did not recognize the newcomer. In a split second, the small alley suddenly darkened, with black clouds surging above, lightning flashing and thunder roaring, as if a powerful and mysterious force was brewing and awakening.

  "Chang'an Great Formation!" The Eagle Yang Old Demon's expression changed slightly, and he quickly withdrew his inner breath, floating away in the distance. His voice echoed from afar: "You stinky little brat, consider yourself lucky this time, but next time you won't be so fortunate!"

  Xiao Si narrowly escaped death, leaning against the wall and panting heavily as he desperately stuffed lifesaving pills into his mouth.

  Two middle-aged women in gray clothes each put away their swords and said: "It turns out that Xiao Gongzi knew all along that we were secretly following him."

  "Damn it, I'm not a god!"

  The middle-aged woman on the left was taken aback and said: "Then why did you shout for help just now?"

  "Everyone's going to die anyway, can't I even let out a couple of screams?"

  Two middle-aged women were crying and laughing. They were sent by Princess Jincheng to protect Xiao Si, but in order to avoid being discovered, they could only follow from a distance and did not dare to get close easily.

  Who would have thought that Eagle Yang Lao Yao suddenly struck, a string of fights broke out, and the quick battle was almost over when they arrived to kill, just in time to save Xiao Siyi's life.

  As they spoke, the dark clouds above the alley dispersed eerily, revealing a clear sky once again.

  Xiao Si looked up at the sky in surprise and said, "Strange, what's going on?"

  The middle-aged woman on the left replied, "This is a large array laid down by Zhang Liang, one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, in Chang'an City more than 800 years ago. It was specially used to restrain the top masters above the Situ boundary from rampaging in the city and threatening the safety of the royal family. Once it senses the aura of a top-notch person, the array will automatically open, and even the absolute top masters of the Mahayana realm dare not collide with it head-on."

  The middle-aged woman on the right added, "It's just that from the moment the Long'an Formation senses something to when it starts up, there is still a process involved. The Old Eagle Demon took advantage of this brief gap to make his move against the young master."

  Xiao Si suddenly realized and exclaimed in surprise: "No wonder the old blind man said that as long as I stay in Chang'an City, nothing will happen to me. It turns out that there is such a good thing hidden here!"

  Thinking of this great array that has covered Chang'an City for over 800 years, withstanding wind and rain, war and fire, and still being able to intimidate eagles and old demons like the top masters of the demonic path today, Xie Xiaofeng couldn't help but feel a sense of reverence.

  In comparison, the little bit of qigong I learned is nothing but child's play, not worth mentioning!

  Xiao Si finally deeply realized that the true power of the law array was boundless and unparalleled, and even if he only grasped a small part of it, he no longer needed to fear Duan Zhentian or Ying Yang Lao Yao.

  Two middle-aged women saw Xiao Si lost in thought and looked at each other, saying: "Young Master Xiao, your injury isn't serious, is it?"

  Xiao Si smiled wryly and said: "He won't die. The turtle's son, Eagle Yang the old demon, bullies the weak and fears the strong, why not go find Tang Xiao San?"

  The middle-aged woman on the left said: "Then we'll take our leave first, please don't mention it to anyone else, Mr. Xian."

  "Alright, you gotta tell me, who sent you guys? So next time I see him, I can say thanks."

  The middle-aged woman on the left hesitated for a moment before answering: "It's Princess Jincheng."

  Xiao Si Ha laughed and said: "So it was her, that's settled then. I don't have to worry about owing anyone a favor anymore!"

  Hearing footsteps gathering at the alley entrance, it was probably the imperial guards who had rushed over after hearing the news. He waved his hand at two middle-aged women and said, "Leave quickly, someone is coming."

  The middle-aged woman on the right bowed her head and said: "Thank you, Mr. Xian!"

  "Never mind the formalities, this time I won't collect your hush money. Who made me a good man, after all?"
