Xu Xiaoshou, however, turned a blind eye to all this.
The reason why he dared to do so was because Lei Shuangxing was merely a swordsman and there was a limit to his strength. On the other hand, he had a Master Level physique. Hence, he wasn’t weaker than the blind man.
Secondly, Ye Xiaotian, whose cultivation was at Throne Level, was watching from the rear. Thus, no matter how angry Lei Shuangxing was, he had to take this into consideration when he wanted to strike.
“Do you dare to strike?
“If you really dare to strike, you shouldn’t just pose like you’re going to. You should come over.”
Seeing Lei Shuangxing becoming increasingly upset, Xu Xiaoshou felt assured.
This guy and Ye Xiaotian were basically the same: two paper tigers that could only threaten, not act.
He wanted to move forward by dragging Luo Leilei but found that the woman was still confined. He couldn’t help but glance at the Master Dean.
Without hesitation, Ye Xiaotian released the confinement. It was apparent that Luo Leilei couldn’t escape from Xu Xiaoshou.
“One for one exchange?” Xu Xiaoshou took a step closer.
A struggle went on in Lei Shuangxing’s mind. He wanted to hit the unconscious man floating in the empty space, but he was afraid of provoking the lad, who often behaved unconventionally.
If he struck with his palm one more time, Luo Leilei would be finished.
“Okay.”
Lei Shuangxing grabbed his hand in the empty space, and the “floating corpse” arrived in his hands.
He couldn’t afford to gamble. All the people in the entire Tiansang Spirit Palace weren’t worth one hair on Luo Leilei’s head!
The two of them approached each other. They were so close that it looked like they were going to complete the hostage exchange in a face-to-face fashion.
Ye Xiaotian was a little worried. “Let me do it?” he said, transmitting his voice.
Xu Xiaoshou shook his head slightly and winked at him while tilting his head.
Ye Xiaotian” “…”
“What do you mean?” he thought. “Secret code? But I don’t understand you. You’re using a secret code we’ve never discussed before. Do you think I can read minds?
Suspected, Passive Points +1.
All he could do was stay alert and take more precautions.
It was obvious that the hostage exchange wouldn’t go as smoothly as imagined.
As the two of them drew closer, Lei Shuangxing became more formidable. He had no intentions of backing down. He took a step forward every time Xu Xiaoshou took one.
Soon, the blind young man’s formidable aura paused, and he had no choice but to halt.
“Phew.”
Because he could feel Xu Xiaoshou’s warm breath on his face.
With a slightly flushed face, Lei Shuangxing had to take a step back. He couldn’t stand such a close distance.
Yet, with this retreat, the formidable aura he’d accumulated earlier went away.
Lei Shuangxing gritted his teeth. He couldn’t hold it in any longer.
“Xu Xiaoshou, how do you want to trade?”
“We hand over the hostages at the same time!”
Lei Shuangxing: “…”
“Hand me Luo Leilei first,” he said.
“Okay.”
Luo Leilei was already unconscious due to the excessive blood loss caused by Xu Xiaoshou’s strikes. With a sincere expression on his face, Xu Xiaoshou extended his blood-stained hand.
“To show our sincerity, let’s shake hands first?”
Luo Leilei was hanging on top of his wrist.
Lei Shuangxing almost exploded with anger. Trembling, he held his cane, admonishing himself over and over again to pick up her first.
“Hold on, hold on!” he thought. “This isn’t the time to do it!”
“You’re Xu Xiaoshou, right? You won’t live long because of that striking palm you wielded today!”
One of his hands was holding the jade stone, and the other was trembling so hard that the purple cane dropped.
It was at this moment that he seemed to have forgotten the purple cane that he regarded as a precious treasure, letting it fall to the ground. He reached out his hand in an attempt to touch Luo Leilei.
However, just as he was about to touch the girl’s delicate body, Xu Xiaoshou withdrew his hand.
“Lei Shuangxing, you don’t want to shake hands with me, nor do you want to give me the hostage; but you intend to take Luo Leilei away. You have a perfect plan. Why don’t you call yourself Lei Perfect Plan?” Xu Xiaoshou mocked.
Lei Shuangxing murmured, but couldn’t make a sound. He threw the person in his hand to Xu Xiaoshou and snatched Luo Leilei back.
Xu Xiaoshou had no intentions of stopping him. He was a man of his word. Since he’d promised to exchange hostages, going back on his word was impossible.
Mesmerized, his eyes fell on the purple cane that had fallen on the ground.
“I have to admit, your cane is quite chic.”
Lei Shuangxing was startled, and for half a second, the air seemed to freeze. The next second, a loud roar rang through the air:
