Xiao Gu did not dodge or hide, and allowed this strike to land, causing a muffled sound on his body. His expression was completely curious as he asked, "Yiyaya?" 'Why are you people all so weird, to offer greetings in this manner?'
Only now was the middle-aged man shocked. Though he had not used his full power in that strike, he was still unable to accept that it was so easily resolved just like that. Even his face was about to turn green.
He took a few steps backwards, drawing out the distance between himself and Xiao Gu. Then, he began to channel his cultivation technique. Weng, weng, weng. Multiple black halos actually appeared on him. There were a total of nine, but the first eight halos were as black as ink, while the ninth was lighter in color.
