“Xiaobei! Have you lost your mind? We can’t make it to the Black Desert without water!”

Luo Puti’s mind was reeling with a million worries.

Finding Black Desert was at the top of her priorities. She had to find her parents. Without water to pull through the journey, her plan would just vanish into dust.

“Silly wife!” Chen Xiaobei smiled. “I’ve told you before. Serious though, when it comes to this, your IQ is basically non-existent! Trust me will you. Since when have I ever lied to you?”

“I…” Luo Puti opened her mouth to speak but panic set in.

Zhuo Qunfeng advised, “Mr. Chen, maybe you should just humble yourself before elder Shixiong. You know… say some nice things to him and once his anger had died down, he probably won’t find ways to trouble you anymore!”

“Say nice things to him?! More like dislocating his bones!” Chen Xiaobei growled.

Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding’ao were all out to kill Chen Xiaobei.

And based on Chen Xiaobei’s past behavioural patterns, those who attempted to kill him would most likely end up defunct.

If it wasn’t for the fear of the expedition being plugged, Chen Xiaobei would not have just stopped at merely sending the Crimson Wolf Spider to bite the two bastards; he would have also sent them on a hellish ride.

“Er…”

As he realized Chen Xiaobei had made his final decision, Zhuo Qunfeng made no further comment. He would never want to experience having his bones dislocated ever again in his lifetime.

“Xiaobei! What is it that you’re thinking? Tell me now!”

Luo Puti was getting antsy.

“Silly girl! Have you forgotten the time I brought you around flying?”

Chen Xiaobei turned his palm over to reveal a golden bracelet.

“Oh!” Luo Puti smacked her temple. “No wonder! I really am silly!”

“Hah!” Chen Xiaobei laughed.

“What are you laughing at? Stop it! I swear I’ll beat you up if you’re not gonna stop laughing.”

As the two dissolved into laughter, a sudden gust of wind clouded the blue skies.

Rumble!

Rumble!

Far ahead in the horizon, the wind whipped up the yellow sands to form a giant sand wave that wasa about a few hundred meters tall.

The sky was now shrouded by the storm; dark and sober.

As the gale thrusted powerfully, the sandstorm rolled towards the expedition group.

The sand under their feet began to wobble, and streamed over their soles like a rapid!

If they remain where they were standing, they would be completely buried in less than a minute.

They would be trapped under the mountain of sand, imprisoned forever.

“Is… is this the sandstorm? God, it’s frightening!”

“That’s strange! It’s still noon! We haven’t even reached the mark on the map! How could there be possibly a sandstorm now?”

“What should we do? Elder Shixiong! What should we do now?”

The group began to scream in panic.

All of them had heard of the petrifying and haunting sandstorm. Now that they were facing one themselves, they completely lost their nerves.

Even Luo Puti was beginning to freak out. “It’s over. If this really is a sandstorm, then this expedition is over.”

As usual, Chen Xiaobei was stolid as ever. “Don’t be afraid. This sandstorm is not too big. The force of the wind is only about 100,000 combat power. Nothing to get all panicky about.”

Right after he said this, Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding’ao stood up.

“Everybody! Please don’t panic! This sandstorm is not major! Watch me push away in one move!”

Zhou Xiaokun had a conceited look on his face as he stepped forward, and charged towards the incoming sandstorm.

“Hmph! Master Zhou wants to steal the lime light? We’ll see if he’s faster than me!”

Ding Ding’ao did not want to appear weak so he too ran towards the stirring sand.

In a competitive spirit against Zhou Xiaokun, he took the chance to display his heroism.

With all that had happened last night, this was the perfect time to restore his image; to regain his dignity.

“Wow! They are really fast! What are their cultivations?” Luo Puti exclaimed.

“The pinnacle phase of Celestial Cultivation; 130,000 combat power,” Chen Xiao bei answered.

As the two idiots made their move, Chen Xiaobei used his Netherspirit Battlescouter to find out their cultivation.

“1… 130,000? Damn, that’s really powerful! If so, as you said, this sandstorm is no threat to them at all!”

Luo Puti was completely stunned.

Her combat power was only 30,000. Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding’ao each were 100,000 combat power ahead of her! How alarming!

“Flaming God! Azure Tearing Palm!”

Zhou Xiaokun leaped 10 meters high above the ground.

Fire True Kang condensed and was flung across the sky; the flames licked air as if the sun itself had descended upon earth, to cast a heatwave to engulf the dessert.

The 130,000 combat power Fire Celestial Element which turned into a scorching sun tore through the air and raced towards the giant sand storm.

“Venomous Heart Tearing Strike!”

Ding Ding’ao shouted at the same time, both hands transformed into claws, scratching the thin air.

The deep blue Venom Celestial Event condensed into a pair of ghastly claws; each claw was five meters wide all around.

130,000 combat power Venom Celestial claws pointed towards the center of the sand storm.

Boom!

Zhou Xiaokun’s palm was the first to make contact.

Under the pressure of collision, the terrifying sandstorm seemed to suppress instantly. Instead of moving forward, it was regressing, and you could see with your naked eyes that the force of the wind weakened significantly.

Zing!

Swoosh!

Within the next few seconds, Ding Ding’ao’s deep blue ghastly claws stabbed at the heart of the sandstorm, and ripped it into two halves!

The giant sandstorm was parted as though it was a pair of window curtains!

The force of wind which was already suppressed weakened even further until it was completely worn out, and disappeared into thin air.

Without the wind, there would be no waves!

Once the wind stopped blowing, the sandstorm dissipated. It was peaceful once again, as if nothing had happened.

“Wow! Such strength! Elder Shixiong is so charming! You really are my idol!” Wang Mengyu cheered alongside the other Kunlun Faction disciples. They all looked at Zhou Xiaokun with a look of respect and admiration.

“Our elder Shixiong is just freaking awesome! That useless sandstorm was nothing against our Xingxiu Faction’s Master Ao!”

Xingxiu Faction were also cheering for their leader, excited at the prospect.

“The sandstorm really was nothing to the both of them.” Luo Puti looked uncertain. “We’ve wronged them before. What if they choose to take revenge this time round? Then we’re good as dead!”

“Don’t worry. The two idiots won’t be able to do anything.”

Chen Xiaobei shrugged.

Although Chen Xiaobei’s current combat power was nowhere as high as theirs, he was not afraid of them at all.

“Be it a sandstorm or 130,000 combat power, I can defeat them all.” Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes. “I’m only concerned that this sandstorm was just the initial display of their true strength!”

“Initial display of their true strength? What are you saying?” Luo Puti asked.
