I Am Loaded With Passive Skills

Chapter 3708: Chapter 1800: Loss of Composure

Xu Xiaoshou’s every word was like a sword, each sword dripping blood.

But where the sharpness pointed, it didn’t harm Hua Changdeng; he was indifferent.

After listening, Hua Changdeng had only one thought: "How important is Xu Xiaoshou in Dao Qiongcang’s heart? Self-aggrandizement?"

But he glanced at Yue Gongli, who clearly appeared to have been affected, his expression grim to the point of fear.

Yue Gongli’s heart had always been high above the sky.

As a descendant of the five great aristocratic families of the Holy Emperor, they were familiar from childhood, each knowing the other’s roots.

Everyone knew, no matter how humble Yue Gongli appeared on ordinary days, he just wanted to surpass Dao Qiongcang once.

Yet from childhood to adulthood, not once did he succeed.

In strategies, he could never climb over the mountain that was the Dao Clan; it seemed Yue Gongli wasn’t bothered, but in reality, he had never let it go.

Xu Xiaoshou had deeply injured Yue Gongli!

Setting aside the irony in his words, no one would feel good if someone pointed at their nose to scold them like that.

"But, why care?"

In Hua Changdeng’s view, Xu Xiaoshou was merely insignificant; how could his words stir waves in the heart of the Young Family Master of the Cold Palace Emperor Realm?

This could only mean that it wasn’t just in Dao Qiongcang’s heart that Xu Xiaoshou was considered important.

To Yue Gongli, did Xu Xiaoshou’s real opinion of him matter a lot too?𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Interesting."

Hua Changdeng was originally here to kill, but now chose to stand by and watch.

Perhaps in the end, they would truly fight, but he wouldn’t need to make a move himself?

"Xu Xiaoshou, is this really how you see me?"

Beside him, Yue Gongli’s expression was grim, part of it perhaps an act, but his tone seemed genuinely angry, with a bit of gnashing teeth.

"I am merely stating a fact."

Xu Xiaoshou said calmly, as if he was peeling an apple, so tranquil; this was the prowess of his Lip Spear, Tongue Sword technique.

He had long set aside life and death, yes, other people’s life and death.

Without cooperation opportunities, rare to have such a chance to outright insult Yue Gongli while rubbing salt into his wounds, he wouldn’t "stop appropriately":

"And you, are you already thinking of taking action against me, Moon Fox?"

Yue Gongli truly wanted to act!

He wished he could tear apart the Xu Xiaoshou before him, shred him into eight pieces, and slam him to the ground.

He believed that even if Dao Qiongcang were here, hearing these words, he would endure but inevitably think the same.

Xu Xiaoshou probably guessed what he was thinking, chuckled, and said:

"If Dao Qiongcang were here, he’d only listen with a smile to what I said, at most curse me for my sharp tongue, and then let it go."

Yue Gongli was stunned, can he read minds?

"Dao Qiongcang has never been swayed by outsiders’ words, even if he is, it’s mostly an act, while you, are different, different indeed..."

Xu Xiaoshou sighed, looked up at the lifeless sky of Wurao, and softly murmured:

"Young Master Li, high above as you are, you never intended to make equal friendship with me, and I, Xu Xiaoshou, am not worthy."

"If that’s the case, between us, there’s no need to pretend, desire to fight or kill, freely do so."

"If you really try to pretend, you can’t grasp that degree, and my every word of heart-punishing words can indeed wound your heart, can’t they?"

Provocation!

Pure provocation!

Today, Yue Gongli truly was provoked, bit hard, and shouted: "Fine, I agree, I’ll protect you for a day, let’s go up to Mournful right now!"

He turned his head to Hua Changdeng: "Brother Hua, today, how about..."

"Stop." Xu Xiaoshou raised his hand hurriedly.

Stopped again... Yue Gongli’s face turned green: "Why, just because I hesitated?"

Yes, exactly.

Late company is more worthless than grass.

Thinking so inwardly, Xu Xiaoshou outwardly shook his head:

"No, Young Master Li, no need for this, if this goes on, it’ll become me forcing you to pay a friendship fee, such a friendship was doomed to be unequal from the start."

Hua Changdeng would never give face to Moon Fox, his ready-to-act killing intent, Xu Xiaoshou saw clearer than anyone.

"Let it end here."

Once said, without giving anyone time to react.

Xu Xiaoshou unilaterally ended the absurd formation of this "friendship" relationship, with a bang, self-destructed.

This was too abrupt!

The first reaction of Hua and Yue was both suspicion, subconsciously stepping back half a step.

But this time it was truly no trick, but indeed a burst, Xu Xiaoshou exploded into a firework, causing waves in Wurao’s space.

He transformed into countless specks of light, rapidly dispersing in all directions, as if he wanted to escape the place, leaving behind only his ethereal laughter:

"No fate for us, Yue Gongli."

"Come chase me then, if you can find which intention is my true self, I’ll willingly surrender, no need for friendship, to hear your Rain Pavilion for punishment."

Hua Changdeng’s gaze turned cold, pressed down Ghost Hunter, the surroundings swiftly changed, Wurao’s space suddenly veiled in gloom.

Phantom City, descended!

"Brother Hua..."

At the last moment, Yue Gongli spoke out.

His expression complex, reached out to press Hua Changdeng’s sword down, gently shook his head, like a good man: "There’s no need for this..."

Hua Changdeng drew his sword.

The first sword, directed at Yue Gongli!

The sword light illuminated a world filled with melancholy, Yue Gongli suddenly snapped back to reality, scared into a lazy donkey roll, barely dodging past.

"What are you doing!"

Turning back, he cried out incredulously, I’m not Xu Xiaoshou, why slay me?

"You’re not insane..."

Hua Changdeng coldly laughed and sheathed his sword.

Phantom City couldn’t descend successfully, he let Xu Xiaoshou go.

Yet he couldn’t understand, what was wrong with Yue Gongli today, it didn’t seem guided, it only seemed like someone had manipulated him mentally with words.

How did Xu Xiaoshou’s few sentences make the Young Family Master of the Cold Palace Emperor Realm seem possessed, turning inhuman?
