What is meant by "causing more trouble"?
Bai Wu felt that his father's sudden arrival counted as that. At the moment, he was on the verge of crying.
Chen Xia, on the other hand, looked up at the figure in the black robe at the top and didn't say a word. He just found it a bit funny. Did all these White Flame Sparrows like to descend from the sky like this?
"Father, it's not like that. There's nothing..." Bai Wu was still trying his best to explain.
"My son, don't say any more. Today, I'll slay this human who has bewitched your mind and show Qingzhou that our White Flame Sparrow family is not to be trifled with!"
The figure in the black robe sneered and directly interrupted Bai Wu's words, looking at Chen Xia with icy eyes.
The cultivators of the Little Pill Hall came one after another upon hearing the noise. When they saw the figure in the black robe at the top, they were horrified and their minds raced.
This was the patriarch of the White Flame Sparrow family, one of the top existences among the eight major powers in Qingzhou, and he had actually come to the Little Pill Hall in person.
The sect master of the Little Pill Hall arrived at the scene at the first moment. Standing at a distance, he watched the situation, his eyes constantly shifting between the figure in the black robe at the top and the figure in green clothes at the entrance, his expression solemn.
This could be regarded as Chen Xia's first battle to prove himself.
Only by fighting against the top existences in Qingzhou and achieving an evenly matched result could Chen Xia truly gain a foothold in Qingzhou.
Otherwise, the titles of master pill refiner and being proficient in both literary and martial arts would all be just jokes.
The sect master of the Little Pill Hall clenched his fists, and sweat had already oozed from his palms. He hoped that Chen Xia could hold on. It didn't matter if he didn't win, as long as he could achieve an even match.
Besides the sect master of the Little Pill Hall, Qiu Yi, who was stationed in the Little Pill Hall, also quickly arrived. Perhaps she had expected this, as her expression wasn't too surprised. She had only frowned and had already informed the Qiu family to send people over.
In this way, even if Chen Xia was defeated, the Little Pill Hall wouldn't suffer too much.
The standoff at the scene continued. Chen Xia lowered his raised head and looked at Bai Wu, who was kneeling in front of him, and commented.
"You two are indeed father and son."
Whether it was the way of appearance or the tone of speech, they were exactly the same.
Bai Wu was in a trance and didn't know what to say. He just felt that he had been set up.
The figure in the black robe had a cold and handsome expression. He didn't bother to say anything more and raised a finger, saying coldly.
"Take one move first."
The spiritual energy in the sky instantly converged, forming a bright flame that landed on the finger of the figure in the black robe. A small white flame contained terrifying spiritual energy.
The sect master of the Little Pill Hall below gasped. "A Mountain-Moving Realm supernatural power!"
This move was not only intended to kill Chen Xia but also to directly blow up half of the Little Pill Hall!
Sadly, none of the cultivators in the Little Pill Hall dared to step forward to stop it. They could only retreat to a very far distance, already waiting to deal with the aftermath.
They were originally cultivators of the Little Pill Hall, but when something happened to the Little Pill Hall, they could only stand at a distance and be spectators, like outsiders.
The flame formed by the spiritual energy became more and more terrifying. The figure in the black robe grinned coldly and reached out to grab Bai Wu and pull him back. Then, with his finger stained with the terrifying flame, he tapped slightly.
This flame was like a falling flower, floating gently downward. The restrained spiritual energy was released during the fall.
A majestic wave of fire unfolded in the sky, as if the end had come.
The onlookers stood there blankly, not knowing how to evaluate this supernatural power that seemed to destroy the world.
Chen Xia stood at the bottom. The wind from the approaching wave of fire blew his hair, and his green clothes fluttered.
His expression was extremely calm. He even took the time to pick his ears.
It was obvious that he was taking a break from his busy schedule.
When the flame had fallen halfway and the wave of fire in the sky had fully unfolded.
Chen Xia raised his hand, his expression indifferent. He tapped the void behind him with two fingers, and as if a god had spoken, he said.
"Stop."
A grayish-white color began to spread from behind him, quickly entwining the sky and covering the entire sky. In an instant, everything around the Little Pill Hall was filled with the grayish-white color.
The expressions and movements of the cultivators all froze.
The flying birds in the distance were suspended in the air strangely.
Even the wind stopped.
Chen Xia lifted his foot and stepped on the void, walking slowly towards the sky.
He approached the wave of fire.
The wave of fire in the sky automatically parted, as if making way. Then the flame automatically appeared under Chen Xia's feet, like steps, allowing Chen Xia to walk up step by step.
It was like ascending to godhood.
A long flame trailed behind him, like steps or wings.
He approached the figure in the black robe unhurriedly and then stretched out one hand. In the void, he snapped his fingers crisply.
The grayish-white color receded like a tide.
The expressions of the cultivators of the Little Pill Hall returned to normal. At first, they were a bit puzzled, but then they were horrified.
Because the figure of Chen Xia in the sky, with a majestic tail of flame, was facing the patriarch of the White Flame Sparrow family. He smiled lightly and said.
"Hello."
Then the tail of the flame instantly reversed and quickly condensed on his outstretched hand, forming a flaming palm.
This hand grasped the head of the patriarch of the White Flame Sparrow family. The flame burst out instantly, wrapping around it, and then he casually flung it downward.
Today.
The already shattered mountain climbing path of the Little Pill Hall was completely pulverized. Among the broken ruins, the thousand-zhang-long true form of the White Flame Sparrow lay there, bleeding profusely and half-dead.
Why did he also throw it at the mountain climbing path?
Because Chen Xia thought that since they were father and son, not only should their ways of appearance be the same, but their ways of leaving should also be the same.
He was really gentle.
The indifferent figure in green clothes in the sky returned to the pavilion and sat down calmly.
No one dared to take away the half-dead patriarch of the White Flame Sparrow family lying in the ruins. No one even dared to look at him.
From this day on, Bai Wu knelt outside the pavilion, begging Chen Xia to forgive his ignorant father.
Chen Xia didn't respond. He sat on the chair, propping up his head.
Bai Wu's apology didn't count. He was waiting for the half-dead patriarch of the White Flame Sparrow family to recover a little and crawl up to apologize to him personally.
After this battle, the whole of Qingzhou was in shock. For Chen Xia, there were only four words: disbelief.
Some cultivators directly deduced that Chen Xia was a powerful being from outside the region. Since he could so brutally slay the patriarch of the White Flame Sparrow family at the initial stage of the Mountain-Moving Realm, he must be at the peak of the Mountain-Moving Realm.
As for the Sea-Reversing Realm...
The cultivators in Qingzhou didn't dare to think about it. For them, the Sea-Reversing Realm was truly like a god, high above them.
Qiu Yi came to see Chen Xia once during this period. She asked a question in a gentle tone.
"Why did you come to Qingzhou, to the Little Pill Hall?"
"Because I had no choice." Chen Xia replied so calmly, but a rare glimmer of regret appeared in his eyes.
Since the Heaven-Sundering Sword Sea, he really hadn't had any choice.
Qiu Yi lowered her head slightly and didn't reply. She didn't know what she was thinking.
"By the way, why do you talk through the air? Is there something wrong with your body, or do you think it's more imposing this way? Can't you just open your mouth and speak directly?"
Chen Xia didn't mean to mock. He was just simply curious.
Qiu Yi was stunned at first. Then a rare blush of shyness appeared on her cold and pretty face. She opened her mouth, didn't say anything at first, and then gathered her courage and finally spoke.
"Because... because... I stutter."
"Ha ha."
Chen Xia really laughed.
Qiu Yi's blush deepened, but she still looked at Chen Xia directly. This was her pride.
"Okay, okay." Chen Xia nodded.
Qiu Yi gave him a helpless look. She didn't know if he was imitating her. She didn't say anything more and turned around in her white clothes and left quickly.
Half a month later, changes occurred among the eight major powers in Qingzhou.
The White Flame Sparrow family declined.
The Little Pill Hall rapidly rose to prominence and became one of the newly promoted eight major powers in Qingzhou.
Everyone knew that the original Little Pill Hall alone would never have had the chance to reach this position.
It was all thanks to one person.
Like the moon surrounded by stars, it was the figure in green clothes sitting at the entrance of the Little Pill Hall.
He was said to be a guard.
In fact, he was a god in this world.
