The item I identified is very strange.

Chapter 16 Sculpture, so fragile.

"Did you do this on purpose, Old Deng?"

Chen Xiaoxue looked at Xia Fan, put her hands in her pockets, and asked coolly.

"Stop talking nonsense and squat down."

Xia Fan stared wide-eyed.

Chen Xiaoxue didn't say anything more and squatted down next to Xia Fan.

Through the gaps in their underwear, they could see what was happening outside. Screams were still ringing out, and some people were taking out their phones to take pictures.

It looks like a normal scene when an accident occurs.

"Old Deng, is this what you meant by 'dangerous'?"

Xia Fan did not answer. His gaze was directed outside. The formlessness of the Tai Xu Visualization Diagram allowed him to sense the exact location of that malicious aura.

It's right behind the Ferris wheel, but nobody realizes it.

"Speaking of which, Lao Deng, do you want to practice martial arts because you're afraid of dying?" Chen Xiaoxue's squatting posture was with her knees on the ground, her arches flexed, and the soles of her shoes exposed.

Looking at him from the side, the flesh on his thighs was particularly noticeable due to the compression, as was his slender waist. I really wanted to reach out and pinch him hard until I got bruises.

Xia Fan withdrew his gaze and said matter-of-factly, "Nonsense, if you're not afraid of death, why practice martial arts?"

After a brief silence, Chen Xiaoxue slowly raised her head: "Old Deng, the world of martial arts is very chaotic, not as wonderful as you imagine."

"Whether it's chaotic or not, what does it have to do with me? I'll become a martial artist and still run a lingerie shop. Isn't that good?" Xia Fan replied.

"Then let me ask you, if you killed the enemy's entire family, and then found only a little girl standing in front of you, would you still kill her?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Fan frowned immediately: "No."

Chen Xiaoxue looked at Xia Fan, gently raising her snow-white chin: "This only proves that Lao Deng, you are a good person, but not a qualified martial artist. If this little girl were me, when I grow up..."

"What I mean is, if this little girl dares to stand in front of me, then she must be doing it to protect her younger brother or sister."

Xia Fan looked up and answered.

"So?" Chen Xiaoxue asked, puzzled.

"So, I'll carry her with me wherever I go. If she gets nervous, it means there's definitely someone hiding nearby, and then I'll eliminate them completely!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoxue froze, then reached out and pinched Xia Fan's waist hard.

Xia Fan's eyes widened immediately: "What are you doing?"

"Perverted old man..." Chen Xiaoxue squatted down beside him, her face slightly red. She had just finished speaking when the little girl was her, and this old man said that.

This girl really doesn't treat me like an old man at all.

Xia Fan was speechless, but then again, he didn't know how to handle those choices either; he would only know when he encountered them.

Anyone can spout nonsense.

Some people even said he was very capable, but when it came to actual combat, he couldn't even squeeze through a crack.

Of course, he was referring to some cowards, not a tough old man like him.

Just then, a scream suddenly came from outside the shop, followed by a surge of blood energy that swept through the area in an instant.

Xia Fan and Chen Xiaoxue looked outside at the same time, and saw blood energy condense into a blade, slashing towards the crowd.

In an instant, countless bodies were severed, and blood splattered everywhere.

However, Bloodblade did not stop.

boom!

The window glass shattered instantly, and Xia Fan clearly felt the oppressive force brought by the blood blade.

Fortunately, Bloodblade only passed by and did not lock onto them.

Soon, all the martial artists in the amusement park stepped forward.

The scene was filled with a bloody atmosphere.

However, they didn't seem to find the enemy's location. Xia Fan, on the other hand, knew very well that the enemy was standing behind the Ferris wheel and hadn't moved at all.

Suddenly, Xia Fan's Tai Xu Visualization Diagram sensed that the other party's aura was moving at an extremely fast speed.

What a great speed!

It's no different from a car speeding along.

boom!

As the violent aura erupted, the voices of the martial artists outside could also be heard.

"A martial arts master! This is a martial arts master!"

"Hurry, contact Thunder Gate, and tell them..."

Sizzle—

Chen Xiaoxue's expression also turned serious: "This is a martial arts master."

"Is there a big difference between a martial arts master and a martial artist?" Xia Fan asked, turning around.

"It's huge. At the martial artist stage, you train your blood and qi, but at the martial master stage, your blood and qi are much stronger than a martial artist's, and your bones and muscles are like an impregnable fortress," Chen Xiaoxue replied.

That's indeed quite difficult to handle.

Xia Fan frowned.

Sure enough, as screams continued to be heard, the outside gradually quieted down, which meant that everyone outside was probably dead.

The martial artist kept pacing around, seemingly searching for someone who was still alive.

"What do we do now?" Xia Fan asked, turning around.

Chen Xiaoxue's voice was clear and melodious: "Old Deng, you go out and see me off, I'll take this opportunity to escape."

"Hey...you little thing." Xia Fan glared.

If he were younger and stronger, he would have stripped this girl naked, tied her up, hung her on an electric fan, and made her spin around on a roulette wheel.

Even if he imitated a pig's squeal, it wouldn't help; it would only make his old buddy happier.

"Anyway, you're so old, it's no big deal if you go out and get yourself killed," Chen Xiaoxue muttered.

Ha, if I weren't afraid of death, why would I bother practicing martial arts?

Just as they were speaking in hushed tones, they saw the flowing blood outside rise into the air like a long snake.

The blood remaining in the body is also being gradually drained.

"This is a blood sacrifice," Chen Xiaoxue whispered.

Xia Fan had heard of the Blood Sacrifice; some news reports mentioned that Thunder Gate had prevented the Blood Sacrifice from happening.

Thunder Gate is the Martial Security Bureau that manages martial artists. The Martial Security Bureau is responsible for ordinary people, while Thunder Gate is responsible for martial artists.

"Such bad luck? Should we wait for Thunder Gate to arrive?" Xia Fan asked.

Many forbidden martial artists, thinking of taking shortcuts, will resort to blood sacrifices, and may even create monsters similar to familiars.

Chen Xiaoxue nodded: "It would be best if Thunder Gate could arrive in time, but I'm afraid they might be too slow."

"What will happen if a blood sacrifice occurs?"

Chen Xiaoxue turned around: "Once the blood sacrifice is successful, you can forcefully enter my body, because the ashes are mixed together."

Xia Fan's face darkened.

Why does this girl speak so rudely?

Xia Fan looked up through the crack. Countless drops of blood formed a giant sphere, and the device below was the one that triggered the blood sacrifice.

The device looked like a sphere, with a blood-red crystal floating on top of it.

Although Xia Fan did not understand the principle behind this thing, subtitles appeared in front of his eyes.

[Identification: A perfect sculpture, requiring care as it is easily broken.]

Xia Fan: "..."

After seeing the identification, he turned around and asked, "Do you think that if we destroy that device, the blood sacrifice won't happen?"

"Don't dream, Old Deng. Even a martial arts master couldn't break that device."

Upon hearing this, Xia Fan's mind began to work. In fact, he didn't need to do anything; he could easily break through the device and stop the blood sacrifice by simply throwing a stone at it.

But there were martial arts masters guarding the outside, so he didn't have a chance. Even if the other party ignored him, his chances of survival after breaking the device were slim.

Just as he was pondering this, a loud roar suddenly came from outside.

"The Thunder Gate people have arrived." Chen Xiaoxue looked outside, where a battle had broken out in the blood-soaked air.

The enemy martial artist was quite strong and got entangled with the Thunder Sect members.

Xia Fan and Chen Xiaoxue were still squatting in the lingerie store. Xia Fan turned around in confusion: "Why aren't you going out to help?"

"Why would I go if there are people from Thunder Gate there?" Chen Xiaoxue retorted.

Wow, this girl's personality seems pretty cowardly too.

Xia Fan's gaze fell upon the blood sacrifice device outside. At this moment, the crystals on the device were being gradually absorbed, shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The blood sacrifice will likely be complete once the crystals have completely disappeared.

Right now, the people from Thunder Gate are all tied up by that martial artist.

"Old Deng, come with me now." Chen Xiaoxue stood up.

She also realized that if she waited until the blood sacrifice actually happened, things would get complicated, so it was better to escape now.
