Zhou Xuanji pulled Little Jiang Xue to a corner in the valley. Little Jiang Xue was terrified. She grasped his hands tightly.

Meanwhile, Madam Night Seven had just landed.

She exhaled a long breath and covered her abdomen with her right hand. Blood oozed from the gaps between her fingers endlessly, and she appeared to be in great pain.

Zhou Xuanji turned around and looked at Little Jiang Xue, his eyeballs rolling left, then right.

This meant, “I’m going to fight, you hide.”

Little Jiang Xue knitted her brows and pouted as she questioned if he had the confidence to win.

He nodded, turned around, and walked toward Madam Night Seven.

Madam Night Seven wanted to heal herself first before catching both of them, but when she saw his stance, she laughed.

Her laughter was filled with an intent to kill, as well as mockery.

“Little brat, you think that you can handle me just because I’m injured?” Madam Night Seven said, laughing coldly. She had never treated Zhou Xuanji as an ordinary child.

Which ordinary child could reach the eighth level of Qi Nurturing at only four years old?

However, regardless of how mysterious his background is, he will surely die here today!

She took out a long black whip, which was covered with countless sharp spines, like the stinger on a scorpion’s tail.

Zhou Xuanji was expressionless, but he was anxious in his heart.

Putting aside all those low-level demons and beasts, this was his first proper fight.

The Frost Wave Sword appeared in his right hand. A chilling aura flowed out along the sword’s blade. The sword caught Madam Night Seven’s attention.

“A brilliant sword!”

“Little brat, I did not expect you to have a spatially enchanted artifact and a sword of such high caliber, but all of this belongs to me now.” Madam Night Seven crowed, cackling sinisterly.

To her, Zhou Xuanji must be the son of a great clan, or else he would not be so talented and in possession of such a sword.

Seizing treasures by killing!

This was what the Yellow Gust Seventeen Fiends had always done!

He walked toward her, asking, “Where are your companions?”

“They will be here very soon,” Madam Night Seven said with a smile.

Her smile leaves one in deep thought. Does this little brat want to trick her into revealing the truth?

He attacked just when she was finishing her sentence.

Eight-Step Sword Lunge!

His body moved in a flash and traveled ten meters with each stride. With just three steps, he was already in front of Madam Night Seven.

With the sword in his right hand, he kicked her with his left leg, stabbing at Madam Night Seven as though he was a white crane hunting for fish.

Madam Night Seven’s face turned drastically pale and she lashed her whip at him immediately.

Zhou Xuanji moved his small body with Eight-Step Sword Lunge and dodged her attack easily. He sped toward Madam Night Seven’s back and thrust his sword at her.

Although Madam Night Seven was heavily wounded, she still had a cultivation of Inner Pellet. Even though she was shocked by his real abilities, she did not lose her calm.

She leaped and dodged his strike with ease. She then whipped back at him immediately, sounding like a clap of thunder.

Zhou Xuanji’s reaction was much slower than hers and he was hit on his right arm, which began to feel numb. The poisonous spine tore his clothes and even hooked a piece of his flesh. He almost fainted from the heart-piercing pain.

The Frost Wave Sword became loose in his hand and dropped to the ground with a clang.

Zhou Xuanji rolled backward and distanced himself from Madam Night Seven.

Madam Night Seven sneered at him and said, “Little guy, a Swordmaster must never let his sword leave his hand. Now…”

He lifted his left hand, and the Crimson Dragon Sword appeared.

Madam Night Seven’s smile froze in an instant.

Little Jiang Xue, who was quite a distance away, was very anxious as she saw that Zhou Xuanji was hurt.

She felt extremely guilty. If she were strong, she could have helped him.

With the Crimson Dragon Sword in his hand, Zhou Xuanji dashed forward again.

“The grade of this sword is even higher than the other one…”

Madam Night Seven’s eyes were locked on the Crimson Dragon Sword.

Zhou Xuanji activated White Crane Sword Will, and his body became like a white crane. With Eight-Step Sword Lunge supporting his footwork, he began to attack, shifting about. His body was moving swiftly and endlessly around Madam Night Seven.

Madam Night Seven was surprised in her heart, “What amazing footwork! If only I could learn it…”

Her heart was on fire. She suddenly realized that the little brat was full of treasures.

I’m going to become rich this time around!
