Chapter 227: Chapter 195: Go to hell!

Jiang Xiao watched Mu Xitang’s small footprints and nodded silently to himself.

His divine power was concealed and controlled effortlessly...

In some ways, Mu Xitang’s grasp of strength was far superior to his own.

If Jiang Xiao had stomped down like that, he reckoned a large section of the nearby floor would have shattered.

"Little guy, so hot-tempered? I’m not ready yet!"

The old woman quickly sidestepped to avoid Mu Xitang’s Drilling Heart Leg, also secretly remarking on the devil’s impressive speed!

The whooshing sound that skimmed by her ears was enough to tell her how strong the little devil was.

"Ah dah!"

Mu Xitang: ━=͟͟͞ኈ

Missing the strike, Mu Xitang instantly bent over and turned around upon landing, assuming the initial stance of White Crane Spreading Wings.

"I dah!"

Mu Xitang:༽(o・\`з・´o)༼

Jiang Xiao: ?

Whom did she learn this Drilling Heart Leg and White Crane Spreading Wings from?

Mu Xitang had only been outside for a few days; what on earth had Doctor Sun been showing her?

Not only was Jiang Xiao, as her father, puzzled, but the old generals in the military district also started to ’mobilize forces to assign blame’.

"Uh..."

Doctor Sun pushed up his glasses and gave an awkward chuckle.

"Cough, well, I can explain..."

...

Meanwhile, the three big bearded guys continued groping blindly.

That’s right.

They were still of no help whatsoever.

Given the speed of Sect Hierarch Xi Tang and the old lady, there was no way they could intervene—seeing clearly was already quite an accomplishment.

The figures of the two darted back and forth across the narrow hall.

Let’s not even talk about the power behind Mu Xitang’s movements and techniques for now.

To give credit where it’s due, those fancy moves looked freaking cool!

First, there was the Vajra Palm, followed by Chain Legs.

Tiger Descending the Mountain, White Crane Spreading Wings, Tiger Crane Dual Form, Shaolin Dragon Claw Hand, you name it—all were displayed by Kuku.

Of course, the coolest was the full set of airborne Shadowless Kicks!

But, to state the obvious, the little pink-haired girl’s moves seemed flashy but ineffective, failing to inflict any real damage.

On the other hand, the old woman.

Despite her advanced age, she was unflappable.

No matter how elaborate the little pink-haired girl’s techniques were, she always managed to block them with the simplest and most energy-efficient moves.

In the end, the little pink-haired girl was caught by the old lady.

When Mu Xitang attempted the Shadowless Kick for the second time, the old woman grabbed hold of her little ankle.

Then, with a powerful throw, she was about to finish off the little devil!

How could Jiang Xiao just stand by and watch his little pink-haired girl come to harm?

"Stop! Awei Eighteen Forms... Guanyin Sitting Lotus!"

Holy shit!

What lotus?

The suddenly flying Jiang Xiao and this exotic-sounding technique took the old woman by surprise.

Her sixth sense told her she couldn’t block the move the man had unleashed.

Whether to be sat on or to sit on someone, how could she possibly withstand it at her age?

So she made a split-second decision, immediately letting go of the little devil and hastened to retreat to dodge the move... this move... Guanyin Sitting Lotus...

Oh God!

Regardless, the name of this technique was simply terrible!

As Jiang Xiao landed with a ’boom’ that sent vibrations through the floor, the old woman’s eyes uncontrollably twitched.

A crater more than two meters in diameter appeared in the center of the guesthouse’s hall.

Mu Xitang, her little face slightly flushed, clung onto Jiang Xiao’s arm.

"Daddy, I—I didn’t perform well this time. If I fight again, I’m sure, I’m definitely going to use my ultimate move!"

Her mentioned ultimate move was, of course, the Awei Eighteen Forms personally taught to her by Jiang Xiao.

This man was her father?

It was only then that the old woman noticed the little devil’s address to the man.

Unexpected indeed.

Tonight, was this old lady dealing with a bigger demon?

It seems I too need to go all out!

’Snap!’

The old woman took advantage of the big demon comforting the little one, pressing a switch on the table.

Damn it!

The three big bearded men’s faces fell.

Could it be that this guesthouse had some sort of hidden weapons or mechanisms?

No...

Not hidden weapons?

What the old woman had switched on was the music player in the guesthouse...

[This is my life, full of hardship]

[Like a leaf floating on the water, endlessly drifting]

[From the moment I was born, I began to confront death]

[Feeling Lost in the Grey City]

With the music playing, the old lady began her own "second phase" exercise, distinctly different from Kakarot’s warm-up just now.

What is this?

The old lady version of Tyson?

Boy, she’s got the butterfly step down, her head swinging like a pendulum, and even throwing out rap gestures from time to time.

[OMG!]

[This eighty-year-old lady is setting the trend!]

[God knows, I come from the streets.—AKA Granny]

[Born in 1796, dreaming of becoming a rap leader...]

[You’re kidding me, this granny is seriously hip! Love it~]

[Everybody, shut up! Listen to me, the old lady: In 1974, she first fought in freestyle combat in Southeast Asia and won the championship, then in 1980, she beat Lei Luo, the cherry blossom heavy hitter, and for the next three years...]

[Wow! Everyone else is using speech-to-text, and you kid, you’re the only one who does text-to-speech, right?]

While shuffling her butterfly step, ready to dodge Jiang Xiao’s attacks, the old lady was also talking.

"Thanks a ton! God, you saw it, they brought this upon themselves because I just gave them the chance to run away!"

Jiang Xiao sighed and gestured for Mu Xitang to cover her ears first.

"Hehehe, remember that once the old lady was known as the top figure among the Thirteen Matrons of the underworld! Tonight, let you witness my..."

’Bang!’

A gunshot interrupted the old lady’s words.

Jiang Xiao pulled out the confiscated AK47 from his backpack.

(눈Д눈)▄︻┻┳━

"So, old hen, my signal’s pretty bad here, what were you saying again? I might not have heard clearly. Could you repeat it?"

Old lady: ...

Trio: ...

Live stream: ...

At that moment, the silence was deafening.

I thought you would use the devil’s power.

I thought you would call on those guys over there to gang up on me.

I even thought you would unleash some extremely evil forbidden force.

The old lady just now had thought of many possibilities...

But she never anticipated that this guy would actually pull out a shiny AK47 from his climbing bag!

Damn, that’s seriously against the martial code!

Just then, an urgent voice came from outside.

"Wait!!! Oh my God! Big brother Jiang Xiao! Stop, don’t lay a hand on Alania, the old lady!"

’Bang!’

The door was kicked open by Swordsman, who had lost his sword.

Seeing the scene in the room, he couldn’t help but smile wryly, and was also relieved that he hadn’t arrived too late.

"Oh God, thank heavens, I knew you guys were bound to misunderstand! This is really terrible."

Alania, seeing Swordsman, also froze.

"David... what happened to your face, no, where’s your sword?!"

The old lady suddenly remembered that Jiang Xiao seemed to be carrying a couple of ’fellows’ on his back.

Wait a second?

This demonic dad actually beat Swordsman David?

Looking closely, yes, on Jiang Xiao’s back was a long sword identical to the one David carried, as well as a shovel.

If you compared the size of the shovel with the red mark on David’s face, you could probably fit them together with a hundred percent certainty.

That explains it.

The old lady nodded, and everything suddenly made sense.

"I get it now, David."

"Great, great, ma’am, I’m glad you get it. It saves me having to explain again."

"That’s right, I originally thought he was an evil thieving demon, but now I understand, David, you are the thief! You stole the demon’s long sword, which is what caused the demon to show up!"

Everyone: ...

Can I say your understanding is a little bit off from the actual situation?

David coughed to cover his embarrassment and said to Jiang Xiao and the others,

"Shall we go inside to talk? Really, there’s no need for us to be at each other’s throats."

Entering the room.

Swordsman David first made it clear to Alania that Jiang Xiao possessed great strength.

Otherwise, if the old lady got confused and sought death, that would be the end of it.

He’s not a demon?

To have obtained such power with a mortal body?!

After listening to David, the old lady’s eyes nearly popped out of her sockets.

The record of defeating five masters single-handedly at the Moonlight Tavern was simply too terrifying!

Not to mention in Morro Town, even if put in the city, that surely makes him a standout figure.

"Alright, brother Jiang Xiao, let me tell you about Alania, the old lady. First of all, she hates demons, but definitely not to the point of a life-and-death struggle."

"I have a question!"

Kuku raised both hands high.

"Why doesn’t my power affect her?"

Alania glanced at her sideways, thinking to herself about the clearly-informed girl’s redundant questions!

You already knew why when I dropped the cat, didn’t you? And yet you ask?

"Well, I only know the outline of it. For the details, you could ask Alania herself. Her answer might be helpful for your upcoming four-day trip in the city."

David obviously knew the reason, but he gave Alania the chance to explain, aiming to ease the tension between the two sides.
