Chapter 569: Unquenchable Golden Crow
"Haha!"
Luo Baichuan burst into laughter at Xia Zhongxing’s words and said, "Shopkeeper Xia, if you were this cooperative earlier, why go through so much trouble now!"
"Master!" Cong Qin dashed to Xia Zhongxing’s side in a single stride, his face full of anxiety, and said, "You must not go to the Luo family no matter what!"
Xia Zhongxing smiled faintly and said, "Don’t worry, Luo family is after the secrets on me and my son, not our lives!"
After speaking, Xia Zhongxing turned to look at the people behind him, clasped his fists and said, "Everyone, I’m sorry, I can only help you until here. After I leave, follow Cong Qin and find a new path for yourselves!"
"Senior Xia!"
The group of people all spoke at once, with looks of sadness on their faces.
They knew very well that if it wasn’t to protect themselves and others, Xia Zhongxing might not have been forced out by the Luo family.
But at this moment, no amount of words could express their gratitude, so they all fell into silence.
Xia Zhongxing said no more, he raised his hand and the fire shield above turned into a fire dragon, entering his body.
This simple action made Xia Zhongxing’s body sway slightly, showing that he was clearly injured.
"Xia Shi, let’s go!"
Xia Shi, who had been supporting Xia Zhongxing all along, though his appearance hadn’t changed at all from his fifteen or sixteen years old look, had a hint of heaviness on his slightly young face that wasn’t there before.
When he heard his father’s words, he still didn’t speak, he just helped his father and jumped out of the hole, standing in front of Luo Baichuan.
Xia Zhongxing looked at Luo Baichuan and said, "Luo Baichuan, I have come out. Please let them leave first. After they leave, I will naturally go back to the Luo family with you!"
"Leave?"
Suddenly, Luo Baichuan smirked and said, "Leaving is fine, but before they leave, I will first plant Demon Seed in all of their bodies."
As he spoke, Luo Baichuan opened his palm and a strange glowing vortex appeared in his hand.
This scene made Xia Zhongxing’s eyes widen, because he knew that the vortex was the Demon Seed!
"Luo Baichuan, do you really think you can control me and my people?"
With those words, Xia Zhongxing raised his hand and a huge fiery bird with a hissing sound flew towards Luo Baichuan.
However, Luo Baichuan didn’t seem concerned about Xia Zhongxing’s attack at all, laughing and saying, "Shopkeeper Xia, I really have you in my grasp. You are no match for me now!"
Luo Baichuan’s empty hand clenched into a fist and slammed down directly on the firebird that rushed towards him.
"Boom!"
Amid the booming sound, the firebird instantly exploded, turning into countless sparks and scattering away.
Xia Zhongxing, feeling the impact, shuddered heavily, stumbled on his feet, almost falling down, but luckily Xia Shi managed to support him with all his strength.
However, he suddenly pushed Xia Shi away with force, without saying a word, took another step forward, and a boiling sea of fire appeared above his head.
The sea of fire surged wildly, transforming into a giant firebird, with its flames changing from red to gold.
Enveloped in a mix of golden and red light, Xia Zhongxing’s extremely weak breath was rapidly rising at an astonishing speed.
"Dad!"
Xia Shi beside him immediately let out a cry of astonishment.
Other people may not know, but he was very clear that at this moment, his father was using the Xia family’s most powerful technique, the Unquenchable Golden Crow!
Although this move is called unquenchable, in reality, members of the Xia family can only use it once in their lifetime because it leads to mutual destruction.
When the firebird completely turned into gold, it would bring Xia Zhongxing’s strength to its peak in this lifetime, but after one strike, it would be his downfall!
Clearly, to protect everyone from being infected with the Demon Seed, Xia Zhongxing had decided to fight with all his might.
Although Xia Shi wanted to stop his father, Xia Zhongxing’s overwhelming aura at the moment created immense pressure that made it impossible for him to approach, forcing him to retreat.
"Haha, Shopkeeper Xia, are you ready to fight to the death! Don’t worry, I won’t let you die!"
However, Luo Baichuan remained unfazed and took a deep breath, instantly expanding his body to over two yards.
His aged face and exposed skin were completely covered by black fur, making him look more like a demon than a human at this moment.
His cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth level of the Sky Reaching Realm, only a step away from the Tao Spiritual Realm.
As for the swirling vortex in his hand, it exploded loudly and turned into several beams of light, shooting towards the people in the cave and towards Xia Shi.
Although the firebird above his head hadn’t completely turned golden yet, Xia Zhongxing knew he couldn’t wait any longer after seeing these beams of light.
Xia Zhongxing clenched his teeth and coldly stared at Luo Baichuan, saying, "Luo Baichuan, today, I will perish with you!"
Just as Xia Zhongxing was about to recklessly strike, a cold voice suddenly sounded above everyone’s heads, "Senior Xia, perishing with someone like this is beneath your dignity!"
Right after that, a figure appeared between Xia Zhongxing and Luo Baichuan. Before everyone could see his face clearly, he had already reached out and grabbed towards the countless beams of light.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
With a single grasp, he managed to make all the beams of light change direction and fly towards his palm. In an instant, they reformed into a swirling vortex in his hand.
It wasn’t until then that Xia Zhongxing, Luo Baichuan, and the others could see the newcomer’s face clearly. Upon seeing him, their faces were filled with shock.
"Jiang Yun!"
"Brother Jiang!"
Jiang Yun smiled slightly at Xia Zhongxing and Xia Shi, but did not speak. Instead, he waved his sleeves and pushed both of them backwards. The golden firebird above Xia Zhongxing’s head turned red and entered Xia Zhongxing’s body.
Just this move made a light appear in Xia Zhongxing’s eyes.
Jiang Yun effortlessly eliminated Xia Zhongxing’s desperate attack with a wave of his hand. It was clear that his strength had greatly improved in just a few years.
Jiang Yun gently closed his palm, causing the swirling energy to explode and dissipate into the air. He then looked at Luo Baichuan and said softly, "Long time no see, head of the Luo family. I hope you are well."
"Jiang Yun!"
Luo Baichuan stared deeply at Jiang Yun and said each word slowly, "I never expected you to still be alive."
"If even scum like you can’t die, then how could I possibly die?"
Luo Baichuan smirked and said, "Your timing is perfect. Today, we will settle what you did to my Luo family in the past."
Jiang Yun nodded and said, "Yes, it’s time to end this. After I kill you, I will destroy the Luo family. You don’t deserve to live in this world!"
"Haha, bold words. Let me kill you first!"
Luo Baichuan grinned evilly, and behind him appeared a black giant bear, striking suddenly.
The massive hand, carrying a foul wind, reached out to grab Jiang Yun directly.
Jiang Yun shook his head and said, "When dealing with others, I may sound arrogant, but when it comes to the Luo family, I’m not."
As he spoke, Jiang Yun raised his hand and continued, "Luo Baichuan, as a member of the Luo family’s demon refining lineage, do you recognize this technique?"
Jiang Yun formed a seal with his hands in the air and slammed it down heavily on Luo Baichuan.
