Chapter 588: Chapter 588: Huang Xiaolong VS Ying Qingfeng
Soon enough, Ying Xue moved with glimmers on the stage. Her Qinggong was indeed phenomenal – her movements were like that of a dandelion fluff, as swift as a shooting star, light as air, silent and untraceable.
This stage was about the size of an acre – not too big, yet not too small either.
It was spacious enough to accommodate two people chasing each other.
Before long, Ying Xue pushed her Qinggong to the extreme. She soared, spun, and turned in mid-air like a sparrow.
The crowd erupted with a thunderous applause.
Reaching such a level of Qinggong wasn’t solely achieved through sheer hard work and diligence; it required a genuine talent.
At first glance, it was impossible to catch a glimpse of Ying Xue’s charming figure, which might have made anyone dizzy. Even if someone took an assault rifle and fired at Ying Xue, they would not be able to hit her.
Yet, Huang Xiaolong did not rush to chase Ying Xue. He strolled leisurely on the stage, completely ignoring Ying Xue’s shadowy figure flickering before his eyes.
“Indeed, Axue’s Qinggong is unparalleled in the world,” Ying Chong said, his face alight with a relaxed smile. “I’m curious to see how this mongrel will be able to catch Axue.”
He’s just wasting time,” Ying Qingfeng sneered. “The sneaky cur knows he can’t catch up with our cousin Ying Xue, so he’s delaying time, waiting for Ying Xue to exhaust her True Qi before he makes a move.”
“His calculations are wrong this time,” Ying Chong shook his head dismissively. “This round of Qinggong competition has a time limit. If he fails to catch Axue within the duration of an incense stick, he’ll lose! Considering Axue’s True Qi cultivation level, when using Qinggong and continually moving around, the time for an incense stick will only consume less than a third of her True Qi.”
After a pause, laughing eyes turned to Qingfeng, “It seems this round, our Axue has a firm grasp on victory. Now that the mongrel has lost 2 points, there is no hope for him to compete for the first place in the martial arts competition with you.”
“Father, you’re wrong. I don’t want to let anyone help me. I am waiting for my face-to-face confrontation with that cur! I’ll defeat him thoroughly!” Ying Qingfeng’s eyes glowed viciously as he asserted.
On the stage, Ying Xue’s movements became lighter and more elegant, reminding one of a lark. Sometimes, she even moved with the wind, creating an illusion of a dancer sparkling in the wind.
Huang Xiaolong appeared completely oblivious to Ying Xue’s dazzling performance. He was strolling leisurely around the stage, unhurried and at ease, as if he was out for a casual stroll.
Both seemed to be in their own world, performing their solo acts.
“Ah… it seems that Little Brother Huang Xiaolong is not good at Qinggong… He’s not chasing me, allowing me to perform…” Ying Xue contemplated while flying in the air, a trace of contempt washes over her heart. “I get it now, he’s waiting for my True Qi to be depleted. This really is naive. My True Qi is enough to support me in using Qinggong for several incense sticks’ time… Ah, I thought he’s good at Qinggong too and could bring me a pleasant surprise… I feel a bit disappointed.”
Down at the stage, an elder had ignited an incense stick.
At this point, two-thirds of the incense stick had already burnt!
“Ahem…” The elder coughed and looked at Huang Xiaolong on the stage, “Son-in-law, stop messing around and seize the time. The incense stick is about to burn completely soon. If you fail to catch Xue’er by then, you’ll lose and drop 2 points. Don’t think about playing soft and hard, Xue’er has a long breath, her True Qi is endless. If you don’t take proactive actions, you’re bound to lose.”
“Hehehe~~” Huang Xiaolong totally ignored the elder’s kind reminder, and looked at Ying Xue bouncing around on the stage with narrowed eyes.
This fight seems to have turned into a performance of Ying Xue’s Qinggong!
The surrounding crowd started discussing in hushed tones—
“Ah…Perhaps he just doesn’t know Qinggong at all.”
“Just a few more minutes, and the time will be up. This round, Sister Ying Xue is going to win.”
“I wonder if these 2 points will have a decisive influence on the final winner of the martial arts competition.”
…
The Family Head and the Elder Group were also puzzled about what Huang Xiaolong was planning.
At this moment—
“Only half a minute left, and the incense stick will burn out!” the elder below the stage announced loudly.
At this time, Ying Xue, suspended in mid-air, several meters high, looking down at Huang Xiaolong, smiled. “Little brother, you lose. Sorry for taking advantage of you.”
“Hahahaha~~ No more playing.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
The next second!
Huang Xiaolong stepped out with his right foot, placing it onto the ring!
A wild, domineering force from Huang Xiaolong’s foot, transferred out!
Crack~~ Crack~~ Crack~~~
The entire ring bore visible spider web-like cracks!
Huang Xiaolong’s step felt like an ancient giant’s trampling, shattering the entire ring instantly!
Boom~~~!!!!!!
The ring sunk in, stone debris flew about, dust clouds rolling!
“I understand now!” Ying Xiao exclaimed, a look of sudden enlightenment on his face. “Son-in-law was seemingly walking aimlessly on the ring, but in reality, he had already damaged the weakest points of the ring. Then, when he steps out again, releasing all his power, the entire ring collapses!”
Yes, Huang Xiaolong had been nonchalantly moving about the ring, but he had secretly funneled his True Qi into the interior of the stone ring, causing internal damage. Thus, with one strong push, the entire ring collapsed.
In the blink of an eye, Ying Xue was still mid-air and had lost her footing as the ring below was destroyed.
It was known that, while Ying Xue’s Qinggong was formidable, she couldn’t possibly hover indefinitely in the air like a bird. Due to gravity, her airborne time was limited. Hence, after hovering for about ten seconds, she had to land, borrow force and then take flight once more.
Now, the ring was destroyed by Huang Xiaolong, leaving her without a spot to land. She was startled, causing her True Qi to become murky, and her hovering time came to an end, sending her hurtling downwards!
“You! Little brother! You! You are so cunning! You actually used a sinister method!” Ying Xue was both angered and anxious.
Huang Xiaolong was standing below, on a pointed rock with hands outstretched, waiting for her. She fell right into his trap.
Ying Xue was resentful; while Huang Xiaolong was able to capture her this time, he didn’t defeat her in Qinggong, but by resorting to a plot.
“Hahaha~~Miss, you’ve lost!” With a sudden move, Huang Xiaolong leapt up into the air!
Mid-air, he casually stretched out his arms, catching the falling Ying Xue—it’s quite comfortable holding this soft, sweetly fragrant body.
“Let go of me! You’re playing dirty!” Ying Xue was annoyed, embarrassed and angry all at once.
Huang Xiaolong didn’t respond; he stepped on his right foot with his left in mid-air, not only did he not fall, but he rose half a meter higher. Also stepping his left foot with his right, he rose another half meter.
Like this, continuously stepping on alternate feet in mid-air, gaining momentum to rise higher and higher, just like climbing a ladder, in the blink of an eye, Huang Xiaolong had climbed to a height of several meters in the air!
The entire crowd was incredibly shocked!
“Cloud Ascending Ladder! This… this… this is the legendary Qinggong…Cloud Ascending Ladder!” The Family Head gazed dully at Huang Xiaolong, standing proudly in mid-air, he couldn’t believe his own eyes.
“Ah ? You…you’ve been playing with me…your Qinggong is better than mine!” Ying Xue finally admitted defeat.
Huang Xiaolong did a flip in the air, smoothly landed on the ground outside the ring, and unwrapped his arms from around Ying Xue to let her down.
“This…this match…Huang…Huang Xiaolong wins.” The elder by the ring stuttered, announcing the result. Mumbling to himself, “This Qinggong…I…I’ve never seen it before… it’s so incredible, right?”
Everyone from the Ying Chong sect wore long faces, seeming that water could be squeezed out from them.
“Little brother, can you…can you teach me Qinggong…” Ying Xue subconsciously asked with a tremble in her voice.
Huang Xiaolong didn’t answer, just turned around and left, leaving behind a stunned Ying Xue, lost in her thoughts.
The top ten matches were drawing to a close.
“The next match…” An elder with a solemn expression swallowed, before announcing, “Ying Qingfeng, against…Huang Xiaolong!!!!!”
Upon hearing the names of the contestants, numerous clan members around the plaza instinctively stood up.
“Hmph!” Ying Qingfeng also stood up, a cruel smile appeared on his mouth as he glanced at Huang Xiaolong from afar, “Bastard, today, your mediocre performances will come to an end in my hands.”
