Chapter 18

Shen Xiang quickly took a few steps forward, his hands like dragon claws, stretching out like lightning to firmly grasp the long sword that was flying towards him. A burst of energy immediately exploded, but Shen Xiang only felt a slight tremor in his arm as he blocked the true qi from the sword, standing as steady as a mountain.

Shen Xiang said coldly, "I am Shen Xiang, a member of the Shen family! Who are you? Quickly reveal your names, or I will treat you as assassins!"

This made Xue Ming and Xue Zhiliang's hearts suddenly jolt. Shen Xiang was clearly provoking the Yao family's convoy. The Yao family had dispatched many experts to protect their genius, and the flying sword just now had made Xue Ming and Xue Zhiliang tremble with fear. If it had been them, they definitely wouldn't have been able to catch it.

"Brother Xiaoxiang!" Just as both sides were silent, a pleasant and delicate voice came from the convoy. A slender figure suddenly flew over, moving so fast that it was hard to see the person's face if one's eyesight wasn't good.

But Shen Xiang could see clearly; it was Xue Xianxian. Her lightness skill had reached a level of perfection, even making Shen Xiang marvel.

Xue Xianxian just lightly leaped, covering a hundred feet in one breath, and arrived in front of Shen Xiang, smiling sweetly and saying, "Little Seven, Little Eight, you're here too!"

Xue Ming and Xue Zhiliang's faces turned grim. Xue Ming said, "Little girl, don't call us that in front of outsiders, it makes us lose face!"

Xue Xianxian stuck out her tongue at them and then giggled softly, revealing two sweet dimples on her cheeks, which were very beautiful and charming.

Shen Xiang pinched Xue Xianxian's beautiful face and said with a smile, "How can you be with your future husband's enemies? Just now, I almost got killed by those guys."

Xue Xianxian wrinkled her nose and said with a sweet laugh, "I knew Brother Xiaoxiang was very strong. That sword just now was released by an elder of the Yao family."

Shen Xiang recalled the true qi from just now, which was indeed terrifying, at least the true qi of a Seventh Rank Mortal Martial Realm. However, with his cultivation of the Five Elements True Qi, he could easily handle it.

The Yao family's convoy had already stopped, and a few people had gotten off a carriage, apparently waiting for Shen Xiang and the others to approach.

"Brother Xiaoxiang, let's go over!" Xue Xianxian said softly.

"But! There's no need." Shen Xiang looked coldly at the convoy, still angry about the ruthless sword that had just been aimed at him. If it had been an ordinary person, wouldn't they have died unjustly?

"Shen family's young generation, come and pay respects to the elders of the Yao family!" The people on the other side couldn't wait any longer and shouted loudly.

"I won't pay respects to those who want to kill me, and the Shen family's clan rules don't say that the younger generation must pay respects to the elders of the Yao family!" Shen Xiang replied coldly.

Xue Ming and Xue Zhiliang were instantly filled with admiration for Shen Xiang, who dared to defy the Yao family's people, and even in front of an elder of the Yao family!

"Hmph, just a coward who talks big, let's continue on our way!" A voice full of arrogance came, sounding weak but reaching Shen Xiang's ears, showing that the person was quite powerful, given the distance of a hundred feet.

Xue Xianxian frowned and huffed, then held Shen Xiang's arm and said softly, "Ignore him!"

Shen Xiang laughed coldly, tightly gripped the sword from just now, and infused it with true qi, throwing it towards the distant convoy. The long sword, enveloped in green true qi, shot like a green light, flying towards the wheel of one of the carriages, nailing it in the center and then exploding, shattering the entire wheel. However, the luxurious carriage had four wheels and did not tip over.

Xue Ming, Xue Zhiliang, and Xue Xianxian were completely stunned! They hadn't expected Shen Xiang to provoke the Yao family's people again and again! They were very shocked by the force of the sword Shen Xiang had thrown, which was even more powerful than the one thrown by the Yao family's elder.

"Sorry, I returned the sword, but no one caught it." Shen Xiang said calmly, his voice spreading in all directions, full of provocation.

"You're asking for death!" Yao Tianhua roared, but there was no follow-up, clearly stopped by someone.

The convoy continued on its way as if nothing had happened.

"My father is still in the carriage! I need to go and accompany him. I might not have many opportunities to stay by his side in the future." Xue Xianxian said, looking troubled, her beautiful face showing worry.

Shen Xiang stroked her hair and said softly, "Go ahead!"

Xue Xianxian floated away, and Shen Xiang watched her back thoughtfully, saying, "Why won't she have the chance to stay with her father in the future?"

Xue Ming frowned and said, "Brother Shen, have you heard of the martial arts sects in the Immortal Mountains? This little girl might have been chosen by one of those sects and might be recruited into one of them."

Those powerful martial arts sects were places where many strong martial artists gathered, and it was best to enter them from a young age.

"You should enter those sects, preferably at the Ninth Rank Mortal Martial Realm, otherwise you won't have an easy time there." Su Meirao suddenly said.

Shen Xiang indeed wanted to enter those sects, as only there could he see more powerful martial artists, and the dense spiritual energy there could help him better unleash the true potential of the Yin-Yang Divine Vein.

Shen Xiang, along with Xue Ming and Xue Zhiliang, entered Huwo City. The Xue family had some properties in Huwo City, so they politely declined Shen Xiang's invitation and did not go to the Shen family's villa with him.

The Shen family's villa was very lively, with the banquet only three days away. Shen Xiang returned and greeted Shen Tianhu, then hurried back to his residence.

"I am now at the Sixth Rank Mortal Martial Realm, can I start trying to refine middle-grade mortal realm pills?" Shen Xiang looked at the two beautiful women drinking fragrant tea.

Bai Youyou said, "Although I don't refine pills, I know that the materials needed for second-grade mortal realm pills are very expensive for you. If you want to try refining them, you will need to spend a lot of spirit money."

Su Meirao sipped her tea and said with a smile, "That's not a problem. Don't you still have half a Hell Spirit Mushroom and a thousand-year-old Blood Spirit Mushroom? Selling a little bit of either would be enough."

Shen Xiang, of course, hadn't forgotten about these precious mushrooms. He smiled and said, "Sisters, don't you have any treasures on you? I don't have a suitable weapon right now."

Su Meirao sighed lightly, "My storage magical treasure was taken by my enemy. Fortunately, I have a ring that can store life, but it only has some clothes inside, nothing else."

Mentioning this, Bai Youyou's cold and beautiful face was full of anger, and she crushed the teacup, showing that their storage magical treasures had contained many good things at the time.

"You cultivate the Four Symbols Divine Art, and the most suitable weapon for you would be the Four Symbols Divine Weapons. However, these Four Symbols Divine Weapons are hard to find, as each one is a divine weapon!" Su Meirao's words made Shen Xiang slightly excited.
