The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

However, what Ye Xiu didn't know was that things often develop in directions he never expected.

This child, to be precise, this child's personality has absolutely no connection to this place.

But this child doesn't just have one personality. Just as Ye Xiu was about to approach the child, the child's crying eyes suddenly changed, turning into scarlet eyes.

"You're still too fragile, Nuonuo. Let me protect you. Once we've dealt with everyone else, you'll be safe, right? So entrust your body to me, and I'll avenge you."

Nuonuo actually felt that Ye Xiu wasn't that scary, but it was a habit. Nuonuo had become accustomed to handing her body over to her other personality because he always helped her solve many problems, even very troublesome ones.

"Yes, yes, that's right, that's what a good child should do."

After taking over the body, Hong planned to kill Ye Xiu instantly when he got close, taking advantage of the fact that Ye Xiu was not on guard against her at the moment.

Nuonuo didn't know where she was, but Hong did. This was the ranking battleground, the octagon. Only one of him and Ye Xiu could get out. Hong had to protect himself and Nuonuo, so he had to become ruthless. Ye Xiu had to die!
"Hehehe, sorry kid, you've come to the wrong place."

Hong and Nuonuo have been together for so long and have seen all kinds of opponents, so Hong is not very afraid of Ye Xiu. There are people like Ye Xiu who felt compassion for Nuonuo when they first saw her, but now, those people are already sleeping in the ground.

Are you alright, child?

The distance between Ye Xiu and Hong was already extremely dangerous.

Suddenly! Red made her move. The child's body was covered in red nails that suddenly grew longer, and her target was the artery in Ye Xiu's neck.

An expert's skill is immediately apparent upon seeing their move, and Ye Xiu understood everything the moment he saw the child make his move.

"Hehe, it seems I'm not ruthless enough. I didn't expect you to actually be the number one red."

Ye Xiu effortlessly dodged the fatal blow. It turned out that Ye Xiu's Thousand Chance Umbrella had transformed into a gun form at some point in time, which was Ye Xiu's habit.

Ye Xiu's Thousand Manifestations Umbrella is most mobile in its gun form. That's why Ye Xiu likes to transform the Thousand Manifestations Umbrella into its gun form when it's not in use. After transforming, Ye Xiu can temporarily use the recoil from firing a gun to keep himself away from many dangers.

For example, in this life-or-death crisis, if Ye Xiu hadn't prepared beforehand, he would already be dead.
"Oh? So you're a smart person, you were already on guard."

Hong thought Ye Xiu was like those compassionate people from before, who would come to see her without any suspicion. But to her surprise, Ye Xiu was actually on guard.

The pitiful look in Ye Xiu's eyes didn't seem like a lie; it must be genuine. But Ye Xiu was still on guard.

"Because I carry too much on my shoulders, I cannot lose."

Ye Xiu spoke to Hong, and at the same time, the Silver Weapon Thousand Chance Umbrella in his hand transformed into a spear. This was Ye Xiu's strongest form, but he could also change the form of the Silver Weapon at any time to act according to circumstances.

"Does it have two forms of weapon?" The first is a gun form, which can fire and even use the recoil to move. The second is a spear form, which seems to have a fairly long attack range.

The Red Army's many victories over the years are no fluke. They possess a unique understanding of the battlefield, coupled with years of practical experience, enabling them to often achieve victory at crucial moments. This is the Red Army's fighting style. "Bearing too much, hehehe, then you shall fall here, because what we bear is far more than yours!"

Hong extended her fingernails to the same length as Ye Xiu's Thousand Chance Umbrella. This was Hong's ability to make her fingernails as hard as iron. Ordinary weapons couldn't even withstand a clash with Hong's fingernails because they would be directly broken by their hardness.

Fortunately, Ye Xiu's Thousand Manifestations Umbrella is no ordinary weapon, and he can still put up a fight against Hong.

"Dang Dang Dang!"

The room echoed with the crisp sound of metal being struck, each strike shattering Hong's dream of an instant kill, and also shattering Ye Xiu's dream of an instant kill.

"This person is not simple."

Ye Xiu and Hong realized at the same time that their strengths were actually quite similar, and continuing to clash like this wouldn't be very meaningful, because Ye Xiu knew that Hong couldn't kill him instantly, and similarly, Ye Xiu couldn't kill Hong instantly either.

However, Hong suddenly retracted her fingernails in an instant, and Ye Xiu's Thousand Chance Umbrella missed its mark!

"Oops!"

Ye Xiu cursed inwardly. What Ye Xiu hadn't expected was that this kid's nails could still be shortened.

"This is the opportunity we've been waiting for, so die!"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hong got close to Ye Xiu, her fingernails ready to break Ye Xiu's neck, when suddenly, Ye Xiu's body disappeared.

"Ninja Technique—Shadow Clone.,"

Although Ye Xiu successfully used it, he still felt lingering fear because a bloodstain appeared on his neck and was bleeding continuously.

"Terrifying reaction speed. This kid's reaction speed is comparable to that of the Mexican."

With his unparalleled reaction speed and those nails that could adjust their length automatically, Ye Xiu perhaps understood why this kid was ranked number one in the Bloodbath rankings. Moreover, this kid's combat experience was terrifyingly abundant, as if he had been fighting since birth.
The result is that this child will always make the most advantageous move in a fight, and it's even possible that the child himself doesn't know why he's making that move, but his body will help him do it.
When the brain can't react in time, the body will take action.

"This is a body honed to its limit, with incredibly strong reflexes. What kind of person could have such formidable combat experience?"

Ye Xiu needs to reconsider how to fight against Hong. This is the first time Ye Xiu has encountered such a difficult opponent. Judging from the child's actions, the child is also smart and will not rush in blindly.

"Tsk, what a hassle. Why can't I have someone as stubborn as Shao Tian?"

Huang Shaotian, who was waiting outside for Ye Xiu to come out, suddenly sneezed. (End of Chapter)
