Chapter 270: Chapter 270: The Gamblers’ Day of Suffering

"Hahaha, Lu Xiao looks like a fool in front of Night Demon."

"Lu Xiao, just fight back, will you? Attack him, don’t be like a turtle shell."

"In less than five minutes, Lu Xiao will be dead, mark my words."

"The professionals are really professional, brutally fierce, every move is aimed at taking a life."

"Ah, I should have bet more."

In the hall, the crowd resumed their discussions, and the atmosphere was no longer tense; everyone’s faces were filled with relaxed smiles.

In the courtyard, Lu Xiao had been dodging left and right earlier, but now he couldn’t be bothered to move.

Well, Night Demon’s attacks were flashy, but they somewhat felt like a tiger in action but with a combat record of zero kills and five deaths.

The back-and-forth clanging and banging made quite the spectacle.

"You... move a bit too," Night Demon also got a bit anxious. What was Lu Xiao up to!

Irina said we’d just put on a show together—how do you play your part with that shell opened up?

Just me moving around won’t work; the flaws will get spotted.

"Fine." Lu Xiao nodded. Since you asked for it, I won’t hold back.

It’s also a good chance to see how strong I’ve become.

And after Night Demon’s string of attacks, he seemed to have figured out some tricks about the Shadow ability.

As soon as he finished talking, Lu Xiao’s Inner Qi Barrier directly closed in.

Night Demon was taken aback. What? Dropping the Inner Qi Barrier? What are you thinking, Lu Xiao?

You are a Heavenly Man, the Inner Qi Barrier is your greatest trait and reliance.

Removing the Inner Qi Barrier, you won’t even withstand one of my moves.

"To fight your kind of short-hand, naturally, I’ll use long-range!" Lu Xiao suddenly grinned, then raised his arms forward, palms together, fingers curved.

"Ado... MORE!!" Lu Xiao yelled.

Then, between Lu Xiao’s palms, Inner Qi furiously gathered and then shot out with a whoosh.

"Pfft!" The moment the Inner Qi shot from Lu Xiao’s palms, Liuli Hong spit out his tea.

Lu Xiao had shot out his Inner Qi?

Night Demon, feeling the fierce energy rushing towards him, was stunned.

What the hell is this!

Isn’t Lu Xiao a Heavenly Man? Isn’t Heavenly Man’s Inner Qi supposed to rely solely on the body? Isn’t Inner Qi not supposed to be used for long-range attacks?

"Haha, interesting!"

"Yuan Qi Slash!" Lu Xiao yelled again, slashing with one hand, a super large energy blade formed of Inner Qi blasted towards Night Demon.

"Another, have a taste of my Turtle Style Qi Gong."

"Another Ultraman Cross Light!"

Lu Xiao wildly alternated movements, then various bizarre-shaped Inner Qi blasted toward Night Demon wildly.

Night Demon dodged in a terrifyingly narrow escape from death.

By the end of Lu Xiao’s messy long-range attack, Night Demon looked quite the sight for sore eyes.

His clothes were slashed all over, and blood was spurting from his body.

Lu Xiao silently gave Night Demon a thumbs up; speaking of professionalism, look at that battle damage, fantastic!

...

Civilization Book Club Hall fell silent.

"This is impossible!" Finally, a despair-filled roar brought everyone back to reality.

"Cheating! Pure cheating!"

"As everyone knows, Heavenly Men can’t attack from a distance!"

"Lu Xiao isn’t a Heavenly Man, he must be a Mutant!"

The entire hall burst into uproar, feeling almost as if it could blow its top off at any moment.

"Dammit, Civilization Book Club owes me money!" a Third-tier Electric System Mutant suddenly exploded, his body crackling with electric light, murder in his eyes.

However, the next second, a golden spear fell from the sky and pierced through the chest of that Third-tier Electric System Mutant.

"Anyone else who acts up will end up the same." The cold voice echoed through the hall.

Those who had thought of causing trouble all shrunk back.

Losing money is one thing, losing your life is quite another.

The golden long spear, undoubtedly, was wielded by someone from the Civilization Book Club who was of Fourth Rank.

...

Night Demon was now very anxious; he didn’t know if his performance had been good enough.

But he knew that if the scene went on, he might end up dead.

Lu Xiao was ridiculously strong!

He thought they’d both come out bruised at worst, but it turned out, it was only him that was hurt.

"I didn’t expect you could withstand my all-out strike, come on, continue! Either you die today, or I perish!" Lu Xiao was already yelling at Night Demon by this time.

A play needs some lines, after all.

Hearing Lu Xiao’s shout, Night Demon almost went brain-dead.

All-out strike my ass, you were clearly just casually flinging a few moves just now.

If we continue fighting, I’ll definitely be the one to die.

Forget it.

"Lu Xiao, I’m not in my best form today, I’ll come back to kill you another day!" With that, Night Demon immediately fled into the night.

Lu Xiao blinked, that was it?

He felt a bit unsatisfied.

My acting was just starting to heat up...
