Chapter 56

However,

the next second,

his laughter came to an abrupt end!

Li Xiao’s figure instantly crossed the distance and appeared before him,

and immediately after,

the sole of a shoe rapidly enlarged in his vision!

Li Xiao stepped on Saint Charlos’s face,

picked up the camera he had casually found in the restaurant,

and kept pressing the shutter at Saint Charlos beneath his foot!

Not only did he take full-body shots,

he even took plenty of close-ups!

Li Xiao muttered to himself while shooting:

"Nude photos of a Celestial Dragon, with close-ups at that, should be quite rare, right? This should be enough to cover the cost of your meal!"

"Hey, don't move around, cooperate, after all, this should count as your funeral portrait!"

Hearing this,

Saint Charlos, who was about to get angry, stiffened,

and asked tremblingly:

"What do you mean by that?"

"I am a Celestial Dragon, I am a world noble, I am a descendant of the Creator!"

"You can't kill me, if you kill me, you will die too!"

However,

Li Xiao had no intention of paying him any mind,

took a few more photos,

then put the camera away,

and said to Saint Charlos beneath his foot:

"Exactly what I said!"

Having said that,

Li Xiao applied a little force with his foot,

and with a sound of breaking bones,

Saint Charlos’s neck was snapped by Li Xiao’s stomp,

and he stopped breathing on the spot!

Seeing this,

the scene fell into a dead silence!

One of the Marines muttered:

"The Celestial Dragon... is dead..."

As these words were spoken,

the faces of the surrounding Marines showed expressions of panic,

because if a Celestial Dragon died,

they would likely not have a good end either!

At this moment,

Huang Yuan looked at Saint Charlos, who had no life left under Li Xiao’s foot,

and said slowly:

"Ah, this is probably real trouble now!"

Hearing Huang Yuan’s voice,

Li Xiao looked up in the direction of the sound.

Across the street,

stood a middle-aged man wearing a yellow and white striped suit.

The middle-aged man had short black curly hair,

a ring of stubble on his face,

wore sunglasses,

was thin and tall,

and appeared to be nearly three meters tall!

This person

was the Navy’s highest combat power!

One of the three Admirals, Borsalino!

Codename: Huang Yuan!

Li Xiao moved his foot away from Saint Charlos’s face,

sighed softly,

shook his head,

and said helplessly:

"I didn't want to, but he interrupted my meal!"

Hearing this,

Huang Yuan was slightly stunned,

and then said:

"No matter what, if we don't arrest you, our Marine Headquarters will lose face before the Celestial Dragons in Mary Geoise!"

Li Xiao gave him a faint look,

released his aura of the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation,

and a wave of pressure instantly enveloped everyone present!

"If I want to leave, can you stop me?"

Hearing this,

Huang Yuan’s brow twitched slightly,

and he said:

"Yo, you look so scary!"

However,

while speaking,

Huang Yuan’s body had already vanished from the spot,

and in the next second, he appeared behind Li Xiao,

his right foot turning into a beam of golden light as he kicked straight at Li Xiao’s head!

"Speed is power. Have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?"

It happened in a flash,

in the blink of an eye,

Li Xiao’s mind stirred,

and the Qingshuang Sword instantly appeared,

hovering at Li Xiao’s side,

blocking the path of Huang Yuan’s kick!

The next second,

Huang Yuan’s kick landed heavily on the body of the Qingshuang Sword!

The Qingshuang Sword let out a series of clangs,

but stood firm and blocked the kick!

At the same time,

Li Xiao reached out and grasped the Qingshuang Sword,

injected spiritual power into it,

and struck back with a sword slash!

Seeing this,

Huang Yuan had no intention of dodging,

preparing to use elementalization to evade the strike!

However,

the moment Li Xiao’s sword actually touched Huang Yuan’s body,

Huang Yuan’s expression changed abruptly,

and he instantly transformed into a beam of golden light and retreated!

After putting a safe distance between himself and Li Xiao,

Huang Yuan stopped,

and looked down at his chest,

where a shallow sword wound had been left!

This was only because he reacted quickly,

and retreated at the speed of light,

narrowly avoiding the sword!

Otherwise,

it wouldn't have been just a shallow sword wound!

Subsequently,

Huang Yuan looked up at the Qingshuang Sword in Li Xiao’s hand,

and said:

"Hmm, your sword is a bit special!"

Hearing this,

Li Xiao held the Qingshuang Sword,

pointed the tip at Huang Yuan,

and said faintly:

"Again!"

"Hmm, am I being looked down upon..."

Saying this,

Huang Yuan pulled his hands apart,

and a golden sword of light formed in his hand!

"Ama no Murakumo!"

Huang Yuan held the sword of light,

turned into a beam of golden light and instantly appeared before Li Xiao,

and then slashed down from above!

Seeing this,

Li Xiao did not show weakness,

and met the attack head-on with the Qingshuang Sword!

The next second,

the sword of light and the Qingshuang Sword collided,

erupting with a massive shockwave!

Under this shockwave,

the surrounding Marines were sent tumbling and retreated!

Immediately after,

the cyan light on the Qingshuang Sword became even more dazzling!

Then,

with a 'crack',

the sword of light in Huang Yuan’s hand was actually cut in two!

Then,

the Qingshuang Sword continued its momentum and struck Huang Yuan,

blasting him away!

A moment later,

Huang Yuan emerged from the ruins.

At this time,

there was an extra sword wound on his shoulder!

But compared to the shallow wound on his chest,

the one on his shoulder was undoubtedly much deeper,

and blood was already spilling out and flowing down his shoulder!

Huang Yuan wiped the blood from his shoulder,

looked up at Li Xiao again,

and then at the Qingshuang Sword in his hand,

his eyes full of gravity!

The Ama no Murakumo he had condensed was a true sword of light,

a sword composed purely of light!

And this young man before him,

had actually cut his condensed sword of light in two with that one strike!

This meant that

his sword

could cut light!

In this clash of swords,

if the sword of light had been shattered,

turning back into points of light,

he would have found that easier to accept!

Shattering and cutting are two completely different concepts!

The latter demonstrated a swordsmanship far superior to the former!

Where did this supreme Great Swordsman pop out from?

His swordsmanship

could absolutely rival Mihawk’s,

and perhaps even be a cut above!
