Chapter Fifty-Nine As You Wish
A lone figure's footsteps gradually extended into the depths of the forest, the surrounding grass thicker and more luxuriant, the sounds around growing quieter, with only occasional howls from some unknown beasts, and the rustling sound of wind passing through the leaves and grass.
"Alright, you can get started now."
Chang Feng and Yan Yan looked around at their surroundings, discovering that there were quite a few demonic beasts in the area. They stopped moving forward and casually found a tree to sit under, with a leisurely expression on their faces. The thirty black-clothed guards also found a place to rest nearby.
Two of them announced that all the young masters of the various families had taken action. The most eye-catching was the young master of the White family, who held a dagger in his hand and moved around, often after a shrill cry, a bloody flower burst forth and splashed onto the ground, and there would be a corpse of a demon beast thrown directly to the position in front of Yan Yan and Chang Feng.
Other families also have quick movements, but compared to these people's swift and fierce actions, they are still far behind.
"Don't think that just because you've won once, you have the capital to be arrogant." Qin Hao was taken aback by the ear-piercing voice that directly entered his eardrum.
"Talking to me?" Qin Hao turned his head and found a handsome young man staring at him with an air of nonchalance.
The young man was about twenty years old, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, but his two eyebrows were too flying, and his sharpness gave people a bit of an arrogant feeling.
"You may have won against the Lin family, but trying out and actually fighting are two different things. Maybe you're strong during practice, but it's not necessarily the same in a real battle." The man looked at Qin Hao with a hint of pride in his tone.
"How about we have a competition to see who can hunt and kill the most demonic beasts?"
"This kid is called Bai Ruo, the heir of the White family." Qin Shan reminded Qin Hao: "Jingxuan's tenth-grade warrior. The White and Qin families have a good relationship on the surface, but Bai Ruo has always regarded Lin Bi as his opponent."
"Is it because of Lin Bi that you've come looking for me?" Qin Hao asked in a low voice.
"Perhaps." Qin Shan's expression turned serious: "Bai Ruo is a outer sect disciple of the Seventh Slashing Gate, his cultivation may not be high, but his actual combat ability is not weak. It's said that he often goes hunting for demonic beasts with others, his movements are swift and precise, with a strong and fierce aura. A few days ago during the trial, he received an order from the Seventh Slashing Gate and returned to the gate, so he didn't attend. It's said that after returning, he has been harboring resentment about this matter."
Qin Hao nodded slightly without thinking much of it, didn't even look at Bai Ruo, and walked to one side to face a first-grade demon beast, the Golden Mouse, and started making moves.
"You don't dare? I thought Qin Hao was quite formidable, but it seems that even Ling Xuan's true strength is not something you dare to confront?" Bai Ruo sneered repeatedly.
Qin Hao was nonchalant, with a hint of mysterious aura in his hand, and lightly tapped the back of the Jin Yu mouse that had just jumped up. The first-level demon beast that wanted to escape suddenly fell heavily to the ground, twitching uncontrollably, and it seemed that it wouldn't survive.
"If you really can't accept the challenge, then admit defeat. It's nothing to be ashamed of." Bai Ruo felt ignored and her tone became even colder.
Qin Hao remained as aloof as ever, his hands solely focused on dealing with the demonic beast, ignoring everything else.
"After so many years of weakness, has even a little bit of courage been lost?"
"What's the point of having a high rank? Can't even accept this kind of challenge?"
"So I finally understand how a 15-year-old can become a Lingxuan strong practitioner? It seems that it's just relying on family elders, using spiritual medicine to forcibly raise their cultivation?"
"Hmph, trash is still trash. No matter how high your cultivation is, you're still trash."
Bai Ruo's face turned bright red, her mouth became even more merciless, and her tone was both urgent and severe.
"Really doesn't care about him?" Qin Shan furrowed his brow, asking in puzzlement: "This kid's scolding is getting more and more unpleasant. Don't know what he'll say next if this continues."
"Don't mind him, he's just a jumping clown."
Mu Chen Dong, who was paying attention to the situation on one side, also shook his head repeatedly: "There are all kinds of people and there are all kinds of opponents, Lin is a match for him in terms of moral character."
"Is he an idiot?" A member of the Mu family sneered in a low voice, "Even if you haven't participated in the trial before, just hearing about it would make you know that Condensing Mystery Tenfold is challenging Spiritual Mystery Onefold? And yet he dares to shout here?"
"Idiot? Or what?" Mu Chen Dong sneered with a smile: "Bai Ruo has always thought that he is very powerful, and has also been trained in the Seven Kills Gate for some time. He looks down on other family children, thinking that they will only show off during the competition, but when real danger comes, they are nothing. Moreover, he has always regarded Lin Bi as his opponent, now he can't accept that Lin Bi was defeated by Qin Hao, and having this reaction is also very natural."
The people of the Mu family were all discussing it in a flurry, and although the rest of the crowd seemed to be ignoring it, they were actually secretly watching Qin Hao's reaction.
Only the Qin family members seemed to be unaffected, and Qin Ze and Qin Chao were still circling around Bai Ruo with interest, their expressions as if they were looking at a rare treasure that only appeared once in a thousand years.
"This kid is quite steady." Longfeng laughed and said to Yan Yan.
"Hmm, not bad, better than I was back then." Yan Yan nodded in agreement, clearly very approving.
"Wasting my time, if I had known Qin Hao was so useless, I wouldn't have held such high expectations today." Bai Ruo seemed to be scolding herself hoarse, and in a huff, she turned back around and walked towards where the White family members were gathered.
"They're all a bunch of trash, no wonder others think that the young men of the Qin family have all died out. The Qin family can just continue to rely on that one girl to hold up the beam." White Ruo added another vicious curse as she walked halfway.
As soon as the words were spoken, almost everyone in the Qin family's face changed. Qin Shan was originally nonchalant, but now he glared at Bai Ruo's back. The rest of the Qin family members all sneered at Bai Ruo with cold smiles.
"Halt." A voice rang out, stopping Bai Ruo in her tracks.
"You said you wanted to try, right?" Qin Hao smiled and asked Bai Ruo: "How do you want to compare, what are the rules?"
Everyone who saw Qin Hao's smile felt a chill run down their spine, and a cold feeling rose from the bottom of their heart.
"The two of us will compete to see who can hunt and kill the most monsters, whoever gets the higher number wins." Qin Hao's smile made Bai Ruo's heart skip a beat, his scalp felt numb, but he refused to admit defeat, forcing himself to answer Qin Hao's question.
"More in number? No problem. But one on one is bullying you, all eleven of the Bai family come together."
"Arrogant and self-aggrandizing."
"Arrogant."
"Teach him a lesson."
"Who do you think you are? A somewhat lucky guy who doesn't know whether it's thanks to his elders or some kind of spiritual medicine that he stepped into the Spiritual Realm First Layer with such a big mouth."
Several young men from the Bai family were furious for a moment, and if it weren't for a group of black-clad guards standing on one side, they would have gone up and torn Qin Hao to pieces.
"Qin Hao, don't be too..." Before he could finish his sentence, Bai Ruo's pupils suddenly contracted, and her eyes were filled with a shocked expression. She felt a sudden dizziness in front of her, and Qin Hao's figure had suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, Bai Ruo only felt a layer of dense and fine goosebumps all over his body. He felt that someone had put their hand on his shoulder from behind, and then Qin Hao's voice floated gently through his eardrum.
"As you wish." Qin Hao sneered and his figure disappeared once again.
Bai's face turned pale with shock, the dagger was drawn out, a thread of dark energy poured in, and the dagger, which had been emitting a faint cold aura, suddenly became covered in a layer of golden light, looking extremely sharp.
Bai Ruo didn't dare to stay for a moment, his body moved and he jumped onto a branch, one knife cut through, and the throat of a first-class demon beast Blood Eye Fox was immediately severed by him. Fresh blood spurted out, Bai Ruo picked up the demon beast's body and slammed it to the ground fiercely. His body didn't stop for a moment, and he jumped to another tree branch, stabbing at the abdomen of an Iron Back Hawk.
The iron-backed falcon flapped its wings and flew into the air. A cold smile spread across Bai Rou's mouth as he threw his dagger, which pierced the falcon's abdomen. The iron-backed falcon's back was several times harder than gold or iron, but this time it was directly pierced through and nailed to a branch.
He made a continuous jump, pulled out the dagger, threw the beast's body to one side, and leaped towards the tree, changing his shape in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of a first-class fire lizard.
The action is concise and efficient throughout, without any redundant movements.
"Bai Ruo may have a big mouth, but he's not entirely without skills." Mu Chen Dong watched in astonishment. Indeed, he had been tempered outside and his movements were aimed at killing the enemy, vastly different from the usual family children's sentimental sparring. Without considering grandeur or appearances, only seeking to defeat the enemy with one blow. This was the true way of killing.
Ping Xin evil theory, Mu Chen Dong felt that if he encountered Bai Ruo, really met on the battlefield, his chances of survival would not be half.
"Did Qin Hao win?" Mu Chen Dong looked in the direction where Qin Hao was, and his original thought that Bai Ruo was asking for trouble began to waver.
At this glance, his entire chin dropped instantly. He almost gave himself a big slap in the face. Shaken? Bullshit.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Ruo had already thoroughly dealt with the fire lizard in his hand. He also took a glance at the reactions of the other members of the White family and found that their movements were extremely swift as well. In the twinkling of an eye, the eleven members of the White family had hunted down so many demonic beasts that they almost formed a small mountain.
Bai Shan cast a disdainful glance in the direction of Qin Hao's hunt, but soon this glance completely changed, turning into thorough astonishment.
Only saw Qin Hao's figure like a ghost, moving around in the forest, and when he moved on the ground, his speed was so fast that it shocked people to the point where not even half a speck of dust was stirred.
In the area where Qin Hao was active, a large pile of demon beasts' corpses were stacked densely, more than the eleven people's results.
"Is that all?" Qin Hao sneered, his right hand making a virtual press in mid-air, and five Lingkong finger forces shot out into the void. A flying Iron North Hawk was instantly pierced through its body and fell onto the demon beast's corpse beside Qin Hao.
"Let's make it more interesting."
As soon as Qin Hao's voice fell, he appeared beside a White family member who was hunting a demon beast. The White family member was shocked and retreated backward, Qin Hao stretched out his right hand and pointed with one finger, generating a wisp of mysterious energy that directly struck the dagger. The black gold dagger let out a "ting" sound and then broke into two segments under everyone's gaze. And Qin Hao's figure once again disappeared from where he was standing.
Next thing, Qin Hao's figure appeared again beside another Bai family child, his finger pointing...
The Bai family was in a state of panic, cautiously guarding against Qin Hao, but no matter how they defended themselves, it often happened that with just one blink of an eye, the dagger in their hand would suddenly be split into two segments.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
After countless metallic rings, the daggers in the hands of the Bai family members were almost all broken into two segments, leaving only Bai Ruo constantly jumping around, carefully guarding against Qin Hao.
"Now it's your turn." Qin Hao's voice suddenly appeared beside him...
