Chapter 27 - 27: 27: Poor Ao Tianheng
He could only grit his teeth and endure a fierce slap from Ao Cheng.
Two slaps, Ao Tianheng’s face was completely red, and his spiritual power was useless against this. Ao Cheng’s late-stage Yuan Infant strength was simply too high; if their strengths had been equal, it wouldn’t have made much difference.
“Hahahaha, this feeling, damn awesome, mortal, you should also try it.” Ao Cheng roared with laughter.
Jiang Xiaobai stood to the side, unmoved. He was preparing for his move.
Seeing this, Ao Cheng didn’t care. He reached out, grabbed Ao Tianheng by the hair, pinned his head, and gave him three more slaps.
Using Ao Cheng’s words, ‘it was absolutely exhilarating.’
“Ao Tianheng. don’t sav I’m overdoing it. Blame yourself for agreeing.” Ao Cheng shook his hand, his face full of triumphant joy.
Contrast this to Ao Tianheng, whose left cheek was swollen, his eyes bloodshot; he looked at Ao Cheng with deep resentment.
“Mortal, it’s your turn now!” Ao Cheng chuckled as he pushed Jiang Xiaobai forward.
Ao Tianheng immediately fixated his gaze on Jiang Xiaobai, his eyes saying, ‘If you dare to strike, I will let you die.’
Was Jiang Xiaobai scared? Of course not.
He rolled up his sleeves, spat on his hands, rubbed them together, just as a farmer prepping for fieldwork.
The crowd around them began to mock and deride! “Jiang Xiaobai, you mortal dare to strike, I want you dead!”
“You’re just a mere mortal stepping out of line?”
“You truly don’t know the gravity of the situation!”
At this point, Ao Yan suddenly swept the crowd with a cold gaze, instantly silencing them.
“Bets must be honored; can’t afford to play?”
“Now it’s Jiang Xiaobai’s turn to strike, should I intervene?”
This time the crowd dared not utter a word.
Ao Yan taking action?
Did this mean Ao Tianheng had a chance of survival?
Wouldn’t he be beaten to death on the spot!
Jiang Xiaobai completely ignored the crowd, he swung his hand in a broad arc to strike Ao Tianheng’s face.
Upon seeing this, a murderous intent flashed in Ao Tianheng’s eyes as the spiritual power inside him instantly surged, covering his cheek.
He was confident that if Jiang Xiaobai dared to hit him, the one to die would definitely be Jiang Xiaobai!
But would Jiang Xiaobai not foresee this?
Not only was he prepared, but he also secretly activated his Nine Revolutions Skill, amplifying his physical strength by a dozen times, and quietly used his own power too.
This slap had the effectiveness of a spleen-shattering strike!
Smack!
Ao Tianheng’s body was suddenly sent flying, fiercely crashing into his own mansion’s gate.
Everyone was stunned by the spectacle, even Ao Cheng was taken aback.
“Damn, Ao Tianheng, were you really sent flying by this Qi refining kid?” Ao Cheng shouted in surprise.
Ao Tianheng was completely speechless and in misery.
He had no idea how Jiang Xiaobai’s slap was so powerful. He had covered himself with spiritual power, so shouldn’t it have been Jiang Xiaobai who was sent flying instead?
Under these circumstances, if he dared to expose this, no one would believe him, given Jiang Xiaobai’s Qi refining level strength.
He would only gain a reputation for being shameless.
Ao Tianheng, for the life of him, couldn’t understand how Jiang Xiaobai could possess such great strength.
“This is a small interest for what you did to me that day.”
Jiang Xiaobai sneered before promptly mounting Ao Tianheng, slapped him left and right, his strikes formidable and menacing.
“Desiring my wife?” “Trying to show off to me?”
“Looking down on me?”
“I’m going to smack the hell out of you today!”
After a total of four slaps, Jiang Xiaobai felt utterly refreshed. He dusted his hands and started to walk away.
He intentionally left one slap, just to keep Ao Tianheng in constant humiliation.
When the opportunity arises, he could continue to hit Ao Tiancheng.
This is what happens when you provoke Qin Ming.
Treat me with respect, and I will return it twofold.
If anyone offends me, I will retaliate a hundredfold!
[In view of the host’s exceptional completion of the mission, and the apparent lack of fear of death, a special reward is granted. A Post-Heaven Sky Spirit treasure, the Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill, and a tenth of the Elder’s Elixir Making technique.]
[Post-Heaven Sky Spirit treasure extraction is in progress, congratulations host, you have received the Post-heaven Sky Spirit treasure, the God Sword, Abyss Rainbow.]
Hearing the reward announcement from the system in his mind, Jiang Xiaobai was so thrilled he wanted to leap for joy!
But at this moment, he suddenly realized that the atmosphere around was a bit off, hm, why does Ao Yan look strange?
Everyone heard what Jiang Xiaobai shouted earlier, and they all distanced themselves from Ao Yan, for fear of being implicated.
Ao Yan was now looking at Jiang Xiaobai with a taunting gaze.
He may not realize it, but others knew that whenever Ao Yan behaved this way, it meant that someone was in for bad luck!
In reality, Ao Yan was indeed a bit angry, but his anger was overshadowed by an even more significant shock. Jiang Xiaobai actually succeeded in his cultivation!
This greatly shocked Ao Yan, and his curiosity about Jiang Xiaobai peaked!
His talent was so terrifying?
“Done fighting yet?” Ao Yan squinted and chuckled lightly.
“Hehe, done, done, just one more left. I’ll hit him next time. I’m tired from the fight today.” Jiang Xiaobai laughed awkwardly. This was not the right time to offend this ancestor.
“Then let’s call it a day.”
Leaving this remark, Ao Yan turned and left alone. The crowd then felt as if an invisible pressure had lifted, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, their looks towards Jiang Xiaobai were filled with awe.
Jiang Xiaobai made quite an impression today, making people look at him differently, not just because of his fierceness when hitting people, but more so because Ao Yan now seemed to be on his side!
That was the key point!
Ignoring the expressions of the crowd, Jiang Xiaobai left sheepishly, humming a tune on his way back. Ao Cheng even came forward and wrapped his arm around Jiang Xiaobai’s neck, as if they were close brothers.
“Alright, mortal, you can keep calm. Even this young master can’t beat you.”
Ao Cheng laughed, “Man, that was cool. If there’s ever such a good opportunity again, remember to call me.”
“I’ll definitely include you.”
“Seriously, mortal, how do you cultivate? Teach me?” Ao Cheng asked eagerly.
Jiang Xiaobai cleared his throat, “There’s not much to it. I just followed the Qi Cultivation Method, and out of the blue, I’ve been able to guide the Qi into my body…”
Ao Cheng’s face visibly dropped. He touched his nose, somehow feeling a bit sour in his heart?
He shouldn’t have brought up cultivation with this guy.
It was like he was asking for trouble.
Ao Cheng, feeling emotionally distraught, wore a gloomy face and turned to leave without any hesitation.
Looking at him, Jiang Xiaobai just smiled and didn’t say anything, humming a tune while heading home.
The slapping today was pretty darn satisfying, lessening much of his previous worrying feelings, but Jiang Xiaobai didn’t forget about them.
You could say his current situation was even more perilous. After hitting Ao Tianheng, it was impossible for him to just let it go. There would surely be retaliation.
There was also the fellow hiding in the dark, intent on killing him, and the arrival of the ancient clans.
All of a sudden, his mood didn’t seem so great anymore.
But Jiang Xiaobai was unafraid. He had the system with him. Why would he wimp out? Just do it.
Leisurely returning to the small courtyard, as soon as he entered, he saw two old men sitting and drinking tea in the courtyard with Ao Yan. Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai entering, all three turned to look at him.
“Youngster, your courage really is growing. You even dare to hit Ao Tianheng?” Ao Zhenbei said, a playful smile on his face.
Ao Yuanwu also laughed, “Come, sit.”
Jiang Xiaobai stood still. He had a bad premonition.
“What happened, you didn’t seem this scared earlier when you were hitting people, why are you chickening out now?”
“Hurry over! ”
Left no choice, Jiang Xiaobai could only muster a smile, and walked over. But, he did not sit down; instead, he took the teapot from the maid’s hand and began to pour tea for the two elders.
“Stop busying yourself and sit down. We have something to discuss with you.”
“Did you go to the Golden Pavilion to pawn some items yesterday?”
