- An Unbelievable Explosion
Bai Xiaochun was taken aback when he heard this roar and quickly turned his head around. When he saw Elder Zhou quickly approaching him, Bai Xiaochun’s eyes widened as he was scared out of his wits.
Elder Zhou’s appearance was especially menacing. His shout didn’t say he’d take his life, but it threatened to have Bai Xiaochun personally experience that phoenix’s misery instead. But once Bai Xiaochun recalled how the phoenix had pounced on all the birds in the Scented Cloud Mountain in a single day and without even passing up the Spirit Tailed Chickens, he felt absolutely horrified.
His mind couldn’t help but imagine himself in the phoenix’s place. His pupils suddenly enlarged as his whole being violently trembled before he quickly turned around and fled as fast as he could.
Even though he wasn’t one to back down easily and was only afraid of dying… in this moment, he suddenly understood that in this world, there are things even more terrifying than death. Such as turning into that phoenix…
“Senior Brother, save me! I don’t want to be a bird!” When Bai Xiaochun’s thoughts reached that point, he let out a miserable shriek.
On the high platform, Sect Master Zheng Yuandong coughed dryly, pretending he didn’t hear anything.
Under this intense stimuli, Bai Xiaochun repeatedly cried out. His speed suddenly exploded with a bang as he shot forward, leaving only a blur behind. In the blink of an eye, he caught up to the rear of the crowd. These disciples only felt a gust of wind blowing past them. Startled, they could only stare blankly as they raised their heads to see Bai Xiaochun’s back in the distance.
“This… What is this speed!” They were all overwhelmed with shock. They could see Elder Zhou’s figure following close behind him as he similarly whistled by while chasing after Bai Xiaochun.
This sudden scene caused all these disciples to take a deep breath.
Even the outer sect disciples spectating from beside the stone bridge now all stared with their eyes wide from shock.
“That Bai Xiaochun is actually so fast!”
“Him being pursued seems to produce shocking results…”
While everyone was in an uproar, Bai Xiaochun wanted to cry yet had no tears. He felt extremely aggrieved as he was running as though his life depended on it. He surpassed one disciple after another. All of them sucked in a deep breath, swallowed by disbelief from Bai Xiaochun’s speed. One even gritted his teeth and madly chased after him, only to stare with wide eyes as Bai Xiaochun escaped further and further away.
“Dammit, he’s like a mouse which had its tail stepped on!”
Currently, all the disciples that were both on and before the stone bridge were all stunned by Bai Xiaochun’s explosive speed, and even the Sect Head’s group on the high platform was also staring dumbstruck. They were all amazed at Bai Xiaochun’s speed in this moment.
“Eh… quite clever of the Sect Head!” Li Qinghou smiled wryly as he said to Zheng Yuandong.
Xu Meixiang and the Green Peak Mountain’s Elder both had strange expressions on their faces, and the surrounding Elders couldn’t help but let out a laugh.
“For such an unruly kid… I can only resort to this kind of method.” Zheng Yuandong sighed.
At the same time, the commotion caused by everyone outside the stone bridge was gradually getting rowdier as the crowd was following Bai Xiaochun’s outburst.
“He has already surpassed half of the participants, and if he continues like this, he can definitely enter the top one hundred!”
“Good luck, Senior Uncle Bai…” There were even people who cheered for him as they laughed.
It was during this time that the stone bridge suddenly shuddered and puppets actually appeared on it. The eyes of these puppets flashed and they immediately growled and rushed out toward the disciples running on the bridge.
Shangguan Tianyou, who was at the forefront, had a casual expression on his face as he sweeped with the sword in his hands, causing the puppets surrounding him to crumble in a rumble. His speed did not decrease in the slightest bit, maintaining his leading position.
Lu Tianlei, Zhou Xinqi and about three to five disciples, who had previously concealed their abilities, were right behind Shangguan Tianyou and were similarly very relaxed as they burst through the puppets along the way.
Puppets soon appeared in Bai Xiaochun’s surroundings as well. He panicked when he saw them approaching, but just as he was about to make his move, a sudden gale whistled from behind him. Elder Zhou had caught up.
“Bai Xiaochun, this old man has changed his mind. After I catch you, I won’t let you experience the phoenix’s misery, rather, I will let you experience the misery of all the other birds from that day!” Elder Zhou laughed sinisterly, giving his all to draw out Bai Xiaochun’s potential…
When Bai Xiaochun heard this, he suddenly felt the blood in his whole body rush in his head. The sight before his eyes went dark and he blanked out for a
