Chapter 106: The Guards of Gods

Ji Xia’s body had been twitching in pain.

Flames tightly attached on his skin around those bone-deep whipping wounds; small wisps of flames flickered through Ji Xia’s bones, which were faint golden-red coloured, and making a popping sound. Ji Hao had started learning many of the magic from those Magus Priests since he had been a little kid, therefore, he was now a quite knowledgeable kid. His knowledge allowed him to clearly know that this kind of popping sound was made by bones when the bone marrow had been refined out from the bones by some special flames.

That must have been incomparable painfull, compared to which even the pain of being skinned alive or bones being broken, couldn’t be compared.

Ji Xia’s tall and muscular body was twitching because of this great pain; the cold sweat poured down from his whole body in streams; however, he didn’t show any sign of crying out due to weakness or begging to be spared, he was only staring at that proud young man straight into the eyes, and said in a fortitudinous tone, word by a word, “Hao is my son, he would never do things such as you have said!”

With his body intensely quivering, Ji Xia shouted out aloud, “Murder others for treasures and wealth, flee from the crime, such things, Hao would never do!!”

The young man let a cold smile out, then slightly waved his right hand; along with his movement, an over twenty zhangs long, little-finger-thick, fiery red whip swooshed down, while bringing up an ear-piercing sound, and heavily struck on Ji Xia’s back.

This hit was unexpectedly powerful. Although Ji Xia had the power of a Senior Magi and an extremely hard body that was even harder than steel by hundreds, or even thousands of times, the thin whip still broke through his skin and blew his muscles into pieces.

Ji Xia let a growl out in pain. This time the young man had whipped even harder than before. Not only a large piece of muscle that was whipped flew away from Ji Xia’s back, a few bones too were cracked by the whip; the flames slowly drilled into his bones along with those cracks, and set his marrow ablaze.

Ji Hao stood on the fence wall of the Cold Stream Vally, clearly seeing all this from a long distance.

Murder others for treasures and wealth, flee from the crime? Did the good-looking young man, who had been riding on a fiery kylin's back and floating high in the air, just talked about him like this?

Ji Hao then fixed his eyes on the valley, and tried to have a better vision. Suddenly, rage gushed into his head from his heart. His pupils turned blood-red coloured. The bright blood-red light, which was so bright that it seemed as if it even could be touch by hand, darted out of his pupils three feet far. The natural power surrounding the Cold Stream Valley began to move fast. All of the raindrops within the area within a radius of ten miles, suddenly froze in the air, after which they were blown away by an invisible whirlwind and started rotating around Ji Hao rapidly.

The frozen raindrops tore the air apart, causing a loud sizzling sound. Ji Hao’s Golden Dan started rotating fast in Ji Hao’s spiritual space, and sent the power that contained in it out like floods. Behind Ji Hao’s body, a sphere of golden-red fiery light suddenly spurted out, within which, two round Fire Crow’s pupils were ragingly blazing.

All these supernatural changes had taken place outside of the Cold Stream Valley; inside the valley, the rain was still the rain and the wind was still the wind, no one had noticed what was happening outside of the valley.

“Man Man, who is this guy?” Ji Hao pointed his finger at the handsome young man and asked.

“Man Man’s seventh brother’s guard, Pu Lian. Such a repugnant guy. Why did he come here? If they thought I was killed, shouldn’t my oldest brother send people to investigate this?” answered Man Man while popping up her eyes. She then pointed at Ji Xia and asked Ji Hao, “Ji Hao, who is he?”

“My Abba!” Ji Hao growled out in a deep voice, then pointed his finger at a beautiful lady, who was laid in the mud behind Ji Xia, and continuously vomiting blood, and said frowningly with his teeth gnashing, “That’s my Amma...My Abba is strong and powerful, he can take the beating, but my Amma...”

At the moment, Pu Lian was looking at Ji Xia scornfully, and said with a careless tone, “I didn’t come here to argue with you. I came only to tell you that Ji Hao has killed someone he shouldn’t have, therefore, he must die. But, only him is not enough, he has to pay more for his crime!”

Ji Xia struggled angrily, however, the two warriors with red armours were pressing him hard onto the ground, not giving the slightest of space for him to move his body.

“Ji Hao would never do things like that!” roared Ji Xia.
