Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1623: Explanation? Confrontation?

"Long Xiao?"

Xiao Yi naturally noticed Long Xiao’s appearance but didn’t pay attention to it.

"Long Xiao?" Guardian Hu also noticed Long Xiao.

He didn’t pay attention either; the Five Tigers Sect disciples and all the branch materials had already been taken away.

What he needed to do now was merely to escape from Xiao Yi’s grasp.

"Five Tigers Evil Element." Guardian Hu ignored his injuries and roared again.

His aura increased dramatically at this moment.

Almost at the same time, Guardian Hu’s figure flashed and fled to the distance.

"Trying to run?" Xiao Yi sneered coldly.

His figure instantly turned into a stream of flame and chased directly.

Guardian Hu reacted extremely fast, turning around and striking a palm.

Boom...

The clash of fist and palm erupted once again in a deafening roar.

Violent air currents and scattered primordial power raged instantly across a radius of several dozen miles.

"You can’t escape." Xiao Yi turned his fist into a claw, wrapped in flames, with five claws fiercer and more terrifying.

This was his last chance to force Poison Robe out; how could he let this Guardian Hu escape?

But just at this moment.

A powerful fist came crashing in an instant.

A figure, with both hands striking out simultaneously.

One punch clashed with Xiao Yi’s five claws; another punch clashed with Guardian Hu’s palm.

This situation seemed very much like the day Xiao Yi had exchanged blows with Poison Robe.

Indeed, the figure was Long Xiao.

Xiao Yi’s eyes turned cold, yet before he could react, Long Xiao’s expression had become extremely icy.

"Have you two forgotten this Domain Master’s warning?" Long Xiao coldly looked at Xiao Yi and Guardian Hu.

"Hmph." Guardian Hu sneered, transforming into a black streak, rapidly fleeing far away.

Just as Xiao Yi was about to give chase, Long Xiao’s icy gaze locked onto him again.

The martial arts power surged continually through the air around them.

Within a radius of a dozen meters, the area was instantly sealed off.

"Long Xiao, you..." Xiao Yi was suddenly shocked, then furious, "Bastard, break it for me."

Xiao Yi still turned his fist into claws.

With both claws out, he slashed with full force, cutting through the martial arts power that had sealed the surroundings instantly.

Xiao Yi barely broke through the seal, but by then, Guardian Hu’s figure had already disappeared without a trace.

"Damn it." Xiao Yi gritted his teeth, his eyes a mix of anger.

"Long Xiao." Xiao Yi’s eyes, like a predator’s, glared at Long Xiao.

"Dare you let the evil cultivator escape, protecting them?"

"Nonsense." The nearby Six Dragon Guards barked coldly, "Purple Flame Yi Xiao, dare you slander the Long Family? Which eye did you see the Domain Master protecting the evil cultivator?"

Long Xiao, undaunted by Xiao Yi’s predatory gaze, said, "Speaking of letting the evil cultivator escape, rather than saying this Domain Master let them go, it’s better to say you lacked the capability to stop them."

"You..." The fire in Xiao Yi’s eyes burned even more intensely.

"Yi Xiao." Long Xiao said coldly, "You haven’t answered this Domain Master’s question yet. Did you take this Domain Master’s repeated warnings as a joke?"

"Battles are forbidden within the Six Dragon Territory."

"You repeatedly break the rules; is it that you want this Domain Master to personally expel you from the Six Dragon Territory?"

"I was killing evil cultivators." Xiao Yi’s tone had become extremely cold.

"I didn’t stop you from killing evil cultivators, and you can kill them." Long Xiao said coldly, "But you are prohibited from engaging in large-scale battles in my Six Dragon Territory."

"Is this your reason for letting the Five Tigers Sect Master and this evil cultivator guardian escape?" Xiao Yi’s fists clenched with a crackling sound.

Clearly, he was having difficulty controlling his anger.

"If you don’t give me an explanation for this matter, it won’t end today." Xiao Yi’s words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

"This Domain Master has said." Long Xiao’s face remained indifferent, "Rules are rules, simply put, you just lack the ability."

The atmosphere in the air suddenly became incredibly heavy.

If this tension were broken, what followed would be a storm.

Beside them, the Second Elder suddenly stepped forward, "Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master, don’t be angry first."

"Our Long Family doesn’t stop you from killing evil cultivators, but the premise is you can’t make our Six Dragon Territory a place of panic and turmoil."

"Those earth-shattering battles are absolutely forbidden." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"At your level, and that of the Five Tigers Sect Master just now; even a brief exchange between you two can flatten a radius of several hundred miles."

"If you were to fight without restraint, even a major city could turn to ashes in a short time."

"During your battle with Poison Robe, everywhere you went, there were collapses, and rivers were cut off every moment."

"This is absolutely forbidden in my Six Dragon Territory, and it’s the bottom line of our Long Family."

The Second Elder took a breath and said solemnly, "Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master, we hope you understand."

"Explanation?" Long Xiao stared directly at Xiao Yi, his gaze growing more unfriendly.

"Speaking of explanations, when you massacred the Dragon Jump Sect, you found no evidence, killed the wrong family, and even injured the elder of my Long Family."

"You still owe this Domain Master an explanation."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, his tone equally unfriendly.

Beside them, the Second Elder roughly explained the situation.

"Domain Master." The Second Elder bowed slightly and said, "Perhaps we shouldn’t listen to the Third Elder’s biased words for now."

"Let’s wait for the Third Elder to recover from his injuries, then let him confront Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master."

"Explanation? Confrontation? Ridiculous." Xiao Yi coldly retorted, glaring directly at Long Xiao.

"Though I don’t know why you say no evil cultivation token was left inside the Dragon Jump Sect."

"But why do you think every time I exterminated a small evil cultivation branch and left a token, why was that?"

"That was just to ensure that you fools of the Long Family know that it’s an evil cultivation."

"If one were to search for evidence, to prove those were evil cultivation branches; the evil branches were destroyed, even the ordinary Law Enforcement Team of the Demon Hunting Hall could do it; just afraid you fools of the Long Family couldn’t find it."

"You..." Long Xiao’s face suddenly darkened.

"I’m not interested in wasting words with you." Xiao Yi interrupted coldly.

"Long Xiao, I’ll just ask you one thing."

"Do you know how many evil cultivators are currently gathered in your Six Dragon Territory? Do you know how many evil cultivation branches are covered across your thousand major cities in the Six Dragon Territory?"

"You keep stopping me. If the evil cultivators erupt one day, your Six Dragon Territory will be ravaged by the evil scourge..."

Long Xiao coldly waved his hand to interrupt, "My Long Family has a legacy of a million years in the Six Dragon Territory, dominating here, a mere Poison Robe, a few evil cultivators, want to shake it?"

"Ridiculous."

Long Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, incomparably proud, "As long as I, Long Xiao, am here for a day, no one dares to act recklessly in the Six Dragon Territory, and no one dares to bring disaster to the Six Dragon Territory, or destroy its peace."

"Not the Evil Lord’s Mansion, not Poison Robe... not even you."

As he finished speaking, Long Xiao’s gaze fell back on Xiao Yi.

The chill in his eyes and his imposing aura were like a raging lion.

Xiao Yi’s tone faltered; his tightly clenched fist finally loosened.

The angry look in his eyes returned to the usual indifference.

His imposing aura and the flames in his hands also dissipated abruptly.

"I understand."

Xiao Yi’s tone was very calm, and within that calmness was also indifference.

"Phew." Beside him, the Second Elder sighed in relief.

But if someone familiar with Xiao Yi was present, they would know this was just the prelude and sign of Xiao Yi about to explode.

...

The third update.
