112: Chapter 112 The Woman Xiao Hei Is Looking For

"Senior Brother Liu Jian?" Xiang Tian's eyes narrowed, and he sneered immediately.

"No, I should call you a Puppet instead!"

"Don't worry about who I am; I will kill you today!" Senior Brother Liu Jian's eyes were cold.

Before the words had even faded, the long sword swung over with a sharp, wind-breaking sound.

Xiang Tian was quick-eyed and fast-handed, pushing Ouyang Miaomiao, who was standing beside him, away.

At the same time, he quickly drew the Demon Blood Blade.

"Clang!"

The blade and sword collided fiercely.

A massive force struck, and Xiang Tian was actually shaken back several steps.

His palms went numb, and the web between his thumb and index finger throbbed with pain.

"Hahaha! I've become stronger again!" Senior Brother Liu Jian suddenly threw his head back and laughed wildly.

"Are you crazy!" Xiang Tian muttered to himself, rubbing his numb palms.

"Xiang Tian, should I help you?" Ouyang Miaomiao's brows furrowed tightly.

She was naturally combative, and seeing Xiang Tian fall into a disadvantage, she couldn't hold back and was eager to try.

"Just don't come and add to the chaos." Xiang Tian waved his hand without looking back, his gaze locked firmly on Senior Brother Liu Jian.

He had already seen through the opponent's Aura—half-step Martial Emperor Realm.

Although strong, it hadn't reached the point where it couldn't be contended with.

Immediately, Xiang Tian summoned the three little ones out from the System space.

"Little Frog, come quickly and poison my blade! Little Black, Bai Yu, you two spread out and surround him!"

With the order given, the three little ones acted immediately.

Little Frog hopped to Xiang Tian's side, spat out a wisp of dark green venom, and instantly coated the Demon Blood Blade;

Little Black and Bai Yu went left and right, quickly circling to both sides of Senior Brother Liu Jian, forming a pincer movement.

"Roar!"

A deafening Dragon roar resounded through the Secret Realm, and a faint Dragon Aura emerged around Little Black.

"It's actually a Dragon!" Senior Brother Liu Jian's brows locked tight, his gaze instantly locking onto Little Black, followed by a disdainful cold snort.

"Pity, the strength is too weak."

And when the woman inside the light shield saw Little Black, her pupils suddenly shrank, and a trace of surprise and doubt flashed in her eyes.

At the same time, the negative emotions on Little Black spread toward Senior Brother Liu Jian like a tide.

But Senior Brother Liu Jian had no reaction at all.

"No effect?" Xiang Tian frowned, thinking to himself that it wasn't good.

Bai Yu took the Opportunity to activate her bewitching technique, releasing a soft, alluring spiritual power as her eyes flickered.

But Senior Brother Liu Jian remained unmoved, as if he were immune to all mental attacks.

"Xiang Tian, I didn't expect you to have a Dragon Spirit Beast." Senior Brother Liu Jian ignored the three little ones and locked his gaze back onto Xiang Tian.

His tone was cold, "You are indeed a person burdened with great Opportunity; Master was right after all!"

"Watch the sword!"

The long sword once again brought a deadly sharp edge as it stabbed toward Xiang Tian.

"Clang!"

The blade and sword collided again, and this time Xiang Tian deliberately used the force to retreat.

At the same time, he turned his wrist, and the edge of the Demon Blood Blade grazed past Senior Brother Liu Jian's long sword.

Taking advantage of the momentum, he sliced a bloody gash on the back of the hand holding the sword.

Xiang Tian was delighted, and just as he was feeling proud, the System's voice suddenly rang out.

[Host, don't wait; he is a Puppet, he cannot be poisoned.]

"What?!" Xiang Tian was shocked and looked fiercely at Senior Brother Liu Jian's wound.

Sure enough, the venom had no reaction after touching the wound.

[The moves from Little Black and Bai Yu were ineffective against him; you should have thought of that sooner.]

Xiang Tian was speechless; it was indeed his oversight.

He hadn't even noticed such an obvious Puppet characteristic.

He took a deep breath and said to Little Black and Bai Yu: "There's nothing for you to do here anymore, come back!"

Since special methods were ineffective, he could only face him head-on.

"Xiang Tian, die quickly! Our grudge will be settled today!" Senior Brother Liu Jian pressed forward step by step, his long sword stabbing again.

"Go!"

Xiang Tian's eyes turned cold, and he quickly summoned nine short swords, shooting them all at once toward Senior Brother Liu Jian.

"Clang!"

Senior Brother Liu Jian waved his long sword casually, blocking all the short swords away.

The strength disparity was huge; the short swords couldn't hurt him in the slightest.

"Phoenix Slash!"

Senior Brother Liu Jian lightly parried.

"Damn it!"

Xiang Tian spat internally, raising his blade to block in a rush.

He was shaken back again, his blood surging.

His moves actually had no effect on Senior Brother Liu Jian.

"Xiang Tian, is this all you've got?" Senior Brother Liu Jian shouted coldly.

Xiang Tian's brows locked tight, his heart sinking to the bottom.

Could he really fall here today?

"System, is there any way?" He hurriedly asked in his heart.

[Host, don't worry, it hasn't reached a dead end yet.]

The System's voice remained calm.

"Alright..." Xiang Tian could only brace himself to deal with it.

"Clang!"

Senior Brother Liu Jian pressed his advantage, his long sword stabbing like raindrops.

Xiang Tian retreated repeatedly, exhausted from parrying.

Half an hour later.

Blood spilled from the corner of Xiang Tian's mouth, several wounds had been added to his body, and his breathing became increasingly chaotic.

"Xiang Tian!"

Ouyang Miaomiao could no longer hold back, her figure flashing as she rushed toward the battlefield.

"Bang!"

Senior Brother Liu Jian didn't even look at her, kicking her flying with one strike.

Ouyang Miaomiao fell heavily to the ground, life or death unknown.

"Damn it!" Bai Yu clenched her little fists, her knuckles cracking.

Although she didn't like Ouyang Miaomiao, she was, after all, the Master's woman; how could she let an outsider bully her like this?

Little Black also opened his eyes wide in anger, letting out another Dragon roar.

But with his current strength alone, he could not shake Senior Brother Liu Jian at all.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Senior Brother Liu Jian only used two kicks.

Two figures, one white and one black, flew out quickly.

"Senior Brother Liu Jian, you dog!"

Xiang Tian's eyes were splitting with rage.

"Xiang Tian, whatever moves you have left, use them all!"

Senior Brother Liu Jian pressed step by step, his long sword pointing directly at Xiang Tian's throat.

Just as the tip of the sword was about to pierce Xiang Tian, a cold voice suddenly came from inside the light shield.

"Take him alive!"

Senior Brother Liu Jian's movements paused suddenly, the long sword hanging an inch in front of Xiang Tian's nose.

In this momentary gap, Xiang Tian's eyes turned suddenly sharp.

He swung the Demon Blood Blade in his hand fiercely, taking the Opportunity to split Senior Brother Liu Jian in two!

"Presumptuous!" The woman inside the light shield shouted angrily.

She never expected that Xiang Tian would dare to kill Senior Brother Liu Jian right in front of her.

And Little Black, who had fallen to the ground, suddenly shuddered and climbed up from the ground abruptly.

His gaze fixed straight onto the woman inside the light shield, and he walked over slowly.

"Is it you?"

The woman was stunned, looking at Little Black in confusion.

"Who are you?"

"I am that little Dragon you saved back then!" Little Black's eyes filled with tears, his voice choked with sobs.

Xiang Tian stood to the side, looking at this scene suspiciously.

Judging by the situation, this woman didn't seem to have any impression of Little Black.

Instead, Little Black looked like he was reuniting with a relative.

The woman frowned, pondered for a long time in her mind, and then slowly spoke.

"A million years ago, you were hunted by your own kind, and I was the one who saved you?"

"That's right! It was me!" Little Black nodded vigorously.

"It was just a small effort." The woman's expression was indifferent, and there was not a ripple of emotion in her tone.

"If you want to repay me, then find a way to dismantle this Restriction."

Escaping was her only goal at this moment.

"I... I will definitely save you!" Little Black promised solemnly.

"Why is your strength so low?" The woman looked Little Black over, her brows locked tight.

"I was also suppressed for many years; I only broke free from my shackles and regained my freedom not long ago."

Little Black briefly described his own experience.

Upon hearing this, the woman turned her gaze toward Xiang Tian, her brows furrowing again.

There was a bit of ill intent in her eyes.

"So that means you have already signed a contract with this kid?"

Xiang Tian raised an eyebrow, clearly able to feel the woman's suppressed anger.

"Kid, as long as you treat this Dragon well, when I get out, I won't make things difficult for you."

The woman pondered repeatedly, finally making a concession.

Now, the only one who could save her was Little Black; and Little Black was firmly controlled by Xiang Tian.

"My Spirit Beast, I will naturally treat well, so Senior doesn't need to worry." Xiang Tian smiled indifferently.

"You..." The woman was choked speechless.

Forcing down the anger in her heart, her chest rose and fell slightly.

"As long as you let this Dragon let me out, our grudge will be written off." The woman compromised again.

Xiang Tian sneered in his heart; he had already seen through the situation.

This woman was most likely the person You Lingqing wanted to deal with, and it was impossible for them to coexist peacefully.

And Little Black would definitely be determined to save her.

In this way, the only solution was to Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm as soon as possible and get rid of all shackles.

Thinking this through, a confident arc curled at the corner of Xiang Tian's mouth.

The final victory would depend on whose strength improved faster.

With the System on his side, he had no fear.

He turned his head and cast his gaze onto Little Black.
