Chapter 188 Uncle Xiaowu Wanted to Kill Me
During the fight of the fire tribe, the Triple Alliance suffered great losses. Chidi was defeated and fled. The fire tribe lost. Xiao Qi stood at the gate of the palace and accepted the pilgrimage of influential and powerful people. The campaign increased Xiao Nai’s reputation. Xiao Nai Heat rose in the Fairy City. A number of powerful families sent their family members to take Xiao Nai as their teachers. The war made the people of the Fairy Kingdom hold their heads high, and they showed greater admiration for Xiao Qi. The portraits of their Majesty were sold on the streets. Xiao Qi existed like a God. Crowds of people gathered in the Fairy City and expressed their congratulations to their young King. Xiao Qi stood on the city tower and looked at them.
The people under the city tower knelt down to pay tribute to their Majesty. It was their Majesty’s ability to make the Fairy Kingdom stronger. Therefore, they looked up to the King’s great talent and bold vision. Today was the first day of the spiritual battle. All the spiritual cultivators came from the tribes to the spiritual battle arena. An elk ran in the silver world. The feast which had been held every 500 years was changed to be held once a year. Xiao Nai was the chief examiner, so he arrived at the arena early. Thinking of the day 5 years ago, he let out a long sigh. How time flew!
Xiao Qi looked around. It was an arena that could contain 10,000 people and was more magnificent than it was 5 years ago. Xiao Qi recalled the scene where he first met Xiaoyao. She was cunning and stubborn. It was the place where Xiaoyao once fought.
“Your Majesty... It is time to start,” Xiao Nai reminded. Xiao Qi flew up to the high platform. With a whistle, the spiritual battle started officially. All the love and hatred would be sealed in the spiritual battle arena. The spiritual bird flew high to the sky. At that moment, Xiao Qi only needed the spiritual bird as his companion.
...
In Kunlun.
Phoenix choked with sobs. How could her father imprison a two-year-old child in the stable? She had never imagined that her father was so ruthless. But Xiao Douya was so happy to see the child again that his chubby hand kept squeezing the child’s face.
“Douya... Your brother is ill...” Wuyou pulled Xiao Douya aside.
“Aunt Phoenix, please take care of the younger brother...” Douya could not help but touch the little chubby cheek.
“Where is my father?” Even though Phoenix knew that her father did harm to her, she was still worried about him. Su Chenyang let out a long sigh, as he knew the woman was so kind.
“Brother Chenyang, how is everything going with you?” Before the voice faded away, Xiao Douya threw himself into the man’s arms. “My father is back!” The little boy held his father tightly.
“Won’t you forget your old friend?” It was more than delightful to see old friends, which could sweep away the depression in the heart.
“Dad, are you hungry?” Xiao Douya got down and fetched a piece of food for his father. Wuyou jerked the corner of her mouth and thought how clever her son was. The crispy, thin pancake was spotted with sesame seeds. Xiao Douya held it carefully. Xu Linghe looked at his son gently. Obviously, his son did miss him so much.
“Dad, it’s delicious.” Xiao Douya picked up a bigger one and put it into his father’s mouth. And he took a big bite, his mouth covered with sesame seeds, and the man wiped it clean gently.
“Dad, the Beast King takes my orders obediently. Yesterday, it picked up magic fruits for me.” A handful of blue fruits appeared on the little boy’s hands. Xu Linghe was shocked because they were not magic fruits but the spiritual beast’s spiritual pills. Afraid anything terrible happened to his son, Xu Linghe gathered spiritual fire. When the spiritual pills met with the fire, they would change from blue to black. When they smoked, the evil beast would spit venom. Xu Linghe set a spiritual net to separate it. But for the man’s caution, Xiao Douya would be hurt badly.
“Where is the Beast King?” Xu Linghe’s spiritual finger swept across the spiritual pills and then, they turned into ashes. How could the spiritual pills become Evil Spirit? Xiao Douya was stunned. It turned out that the Beast King came close to Douya on purpose. The more Xu Linghe thought, the more upset he got. Now, Kunlun was plagued by crises. How could a child at such a young age handle it? Xu Linghe did not allow such a thing to happen.
“Dad, is the Beast King a bad one?” Xiao Douya did not believe it. How could the spiritual beast which played with him turn out to be a bad one? The little boy knitted his brows and could not figure out the reason.
“Follow me to the back mountain.” As a father, it was Xu Linghe’s responsibility to let his child grow up healthily and remove all the dangers.
“Dad, I want to go.” Xiao Douya could not bring himself to face it and hoped it was a good spiritual beast. Xu Linghe held his child and flew to the back mountain.
The night appeared quieter in the snow world. In front was the Beast King’s domain. In the snow night, a black shadow dashed out. Xu Linghe flew up. The black shadow wore a long robe and covered his face tightly. Xu Linghe hid himself in the snow, and Wuyou held the child behind. The black shadow gave a whistle. And a flock of beasts came out of the snow, and the Beast King took the lead. It knelt down at the sight of the black shadow. Xiao Douya was very disappointed, as he should be their master. How could the beasts follow another man’s orders? Xiao Douyan clenched his fists.
“Mom, the Beast King has never hurt me before. If you don’t believe, wait and see.” The little boy rolled up his cuffs, trying to prove the innocence of the Beast King.
“Without your father’s protection, it would be hard to imagine what would have happened just now. The monster must be removed.” Wuyou thought that the little child was so innocent and simple that he was easily cheated by the superficial kindness. However, Xiao Douya was totally unaware of the conspiracy in it.
“The little boy is my friend.” The Beast King knelt on the ground, hoping its master to let go of the little boy.
“Look at me!” The black shadow pulled the front part of his robe open. Xu Linghe could see a burn mark, which was injured by the Heavenly Book. It turned out that the black shadow came to seek revenge.
“The boy once saved my life.” The Beast King lowered its head humbly. But the black shadow did not care about it and swept over his sharp claws. The Beast King was so clever that it flew away from the man’s side. The Beast King’s provocative behavior made the man rather dissatisfied. His sharp claws continued to extend. The Beast King was as fast as lightning. Then, the black shadow shrank into a ball and moved among the woods. This was the black shadow’s strength, as he once broke even with his master when practicing the controlling technique. The black shadow seemed to read the Beast King’s intention, and he jumped into the sky and pounced at the Beast King with surprising endurance. The Beast King ran out of the branches to escape the black shadow’s strong attack. The black shadow threw out a palm. The Beast King did not dare to slack, but it swooped to his opponent. The black shadow was such an arrogant man that he could not believe that someone dared to challenge his authority. If his people knew it, how could he maintain his majesty? The black shadow was rather unhappy, and now he ran out of patience for the Beast King. How could such a Beast King in the low level dare to disobey his order? If the Triple Alliance knew it, they must laugh at him. What was more, the Beast King was his driving beast, but now the beast wanted to betray him. The anger made the black shadow feel hurt in his heart. Jiang Wuyou once hurt him twice, so he decided to take revenge without a doubt. But it was a pity that he was badly injured now, and he had no alternative but to use the poisonous spirit. Although he knew the Beast King did not follow his orders, he could not kill it. But he had his own ways to tame beasts. The black shadow was very confident and thought the beast’s temper was getting worse since he saw it last time. The black shadow slammed out. But the Beast King ignored it, instead, it collided toward its master. Xiao Douya was worried about the Beast King and thought that his father had blamed the Beast King wrongly. If the Beast King really wanted to do harm to him, there were a lot of chances for it to do that, but the Beast King just chose the poisonous pills and left the living opportunity to Xiao Douya. So how could Xiao Douya sit by and watch it? The little boy soared to the sky and rushed out. It was too late for Wuyou to stop her child. The black shadow did not expect that a child would dash out. When seeing the boy clearly, the black shadow was so happy and thought that it did not take any effort to get him. The Beast King rushed to Xiao Douya directly at the sight of him and thought Douya was really bold. The Beast King held the little boy and ran out of the woods. The black shadow threw out a palm but was stopped by Xu Linghe. Xiao Douya held the Beast King tightly and rushed out. The black shadow followed them closely. Xu Linghe was worried about his son because the Beast King was not the black shadow’s match. The black shadow was too rampant. Xu Linghe gave a blow. The black shadow was infuriated by the blow and transformed out his true body. Sure enough, it was Zhu Jiuyin who would not spare a child for the sake of the Heavenly Book. His huge body crashed into the Beast King. Xiao Douya held the Beast King tightly and confronted him head-on. When the black shadow was near them, the Beast King leaned to one side to duck the blast wave. Zhu Jiuyin could not realize what happened at that moment and got stuck in the branches. Zhu Jiuyin cleaved the branches open, trying to free himself from them. The Beast King seized the chance and jumped onto his back. Zhu Jiuyin was the master of the Immense Sea, so how could he allow himself to yield to a beast? He swept his sharp claws at the Beast King. Rumble! Rumble! The tree was broken into parts. Zhu Jiuyin shook his body in order to cast off the child on his back. However, Xiao Douya was quite perseverant and just held Zhu Jiuyin tightly. The wind was roaring. The Beast King was so proud and aloof. Xu Linghe gave a blow, and Zhu Jiuyin could taste blood on the corner of his mouth. Since Zhu Jiuyin was badly injured, he was not Xu Linghe’s match. Xu Linghe increased his Spirit Power to ensure that his hands clung to Zhu Jiuyin. In terms of endurance, Xu Linghe thought he was better than Zhu Jiuyin. Xiao Douya stood up slowly, trying to tame it and letting the spiritual beast know his ability. The little boy held the beast’s horns and stood upright. Facing the snow wind in Kunlun, he was like a small cedar. Xu Linghe was surprised to see his son like that and also felt proud of him. The Beast King flew to the summit of the clouds. It had used up its patience for the little boy on its back. Worried about his son’s safety, Xu Linghe followed them to the summit. When the Beast King drilled into the snow fog, its eyes were blurred by the coming snow. However, the little boy did not loosen his hands. But the flying snow ran to the Beast King. It was too late for Xu Linghe. Zhu Jiuyin followed Xiao Douya to fall into the chilly land. Wuyou rushed to the summit. Xu Linghe jumped into the summit as well.
“Linghe, I feel scared.”
“Zhu Jiuyin will not hurt our child.” Xu Linghe comforted her, but he felt worried in his heart. No matter how smart their son was, he was still a child. Then, the big hand clenched the small hand, and they flew to the chilly land.
Small hands pushed the snow aside, and his body moved bit by bit. There was a cut on his shank. Snow dropped into the cut, and it was piercingly cold. Xiao Douya wiped it softly and picked himself up after feeling warm. Xiao Douya was fine with the protection of his Spirit Power, but the Beast King was badly injured, covered with snow, as if it was dying. Xiao Douyou would not allow the black shadow to die, because the man tried every means to kill him, and Xiao Douya would not spare him so easily.
Xiao Douya pushed the snow aside, trying to tear off the mask.
“Uncle Xiaowu?” No, he was not Uncle Xiaowu. In Xiao Douya’s memory, his uncle once fed him the wolf milk. So how could such a kind person be the black-clothed man? Xiao Douya was rather disappointed.
The black shadow leaped to the sky, and Xiao Douya was thrown into the snow again.
“But you are not Uncle Xiaowu...” At that moment, Zhu Jiuyin was rather feeble, as his old wound had not recovered while he was hurt by Xu Linghe again. Xiao Douya threw himself at Zhu Jiuyin. But Zhu Jiuyin was trapped in the snow and unable to move. He had no way but to allow the boy to do anything as he wanted. As the king of the Immense Sea, Zhu Jiuyin was disturbed by a little child.
“You are not Uncle Xiaowu.” The little boy could not understand why the uncle who loved him so much would kill him.
“I approached you in order to get the Heavenly Book... Understand? Little boy.” The snowslide worsened Zhu Jiuyin’s wound. And he was panting for breath.
Xiao Douya jumped up and swept the iron chain to Zhu Jiuyin. The iron chain charged after the spirit light. Zhu Jiuyin frowned with great pain and gathered Spirit Power to the little boy. Xiao Douya dodged the attack. Zhu Jiuyin shook his body, trying to rush out of the snow land. However, the looser the snow was, the tighter it covered on his body. Xiao Douya conjured a long iron chain and tied up Zhu Jiuyin. Xiao Douya gasped for breath. But how could Zhu Jiuyin allow himself to be oppressed by the little boy? Zhu Jiuyin rose to the sky, trying to get rid of the iron chain. Unexpectedly, the snow land collapsed, and Zhu Jiuyin slid to the deeper place. Xiao Douya came up to bind the iron chain on the stone pillar. Then, Zhu Jiuyin could suspend in the mid-air. The little boy flew toward him. Zhu Jiuyin seized the right time to rush out of the snow, and Xiao Douya followed him closely. The accumulated snow collapsed and came head-on. Xiao Douya’s little body rolled as the mountain stones. Xu Linghe dived to him.
“Dad.”
