Epic Of The Second Strongest Demonic Blade King - Chapter 162

And once they became impacted by the energy beams which then penetrated into their bodies to fill them with energy that rapidly permeated their bodies and pervaded their minds to nourish and strengthen them, their comprehension rates shot up more, allowing them to understand the mystery hidden in the images projected to their minds.

“Wow. Looks like a beautiful and colorful display of brilliant fireworks” The tall slender girl said to Xiao Lin while Xiao Lin nodded his head with a smile appearing in his face.

But as Xiao Lin and the girl were discussing, Elder Chi who had been angered by Xiao Lin’s unconscious actions, and the serious hyping by the male elders around her in the Hall of Elders, began to look at him with scorn in her eyes when she saw him discussing and smiling at the same time with the girl that she had made up her mind to either persuade or coerce to join the department that she supervises.

“See the way the annoying brat is smiling at her anytime she asks a question. Hmm. I have to do something about this before they become good friends. She can’t be friends with him and a student in my department. That’s not going to be possible. So, I have to split them. But that can only be after the test is over. Once I split them, she would never see him again..” Elder Chu said, taking things quite far.

All these from her was actually not really necessary, but because of the elders who praised Xiao Lin way too much, had caused her to intensely dislike him.

However, she only disliked him, she didn’t hate him. So, she wouldn’t try to perform any feat that would be seriously detrimental or devastating to his cultivation growth in their sect once he passes the discipleship exams and becomes a bonafide and loyal disciple.

While Xiao Lin and the tall slender girl who didn’t know what was going on in the mind of Elder Chu, and the schemes that she had angrily orchestrated for the both of them, continued to discuss with smiles in their faces.

“Hmm. That’s pretty cool” The girl said in response to what Xiao Lin told her.

She then smilingly asked, “What’s your name?”

“Li Huang” Xiao Lin replied.

“Oh. That’s a nice name.” The girl said with a nod of her head.

She then continued, “As for me, my name is Zhao Yu”

“That’s a nice name too” Xiao Lin said with a nod of his head.

He then said further, “It’s nice meeting you, Zhao Yu”

“Yea. Same here, Li Huang” The girl called Zhao Yu said.

She then asked with one of her brows furrowed, “Do you have like a nickname or a moniker that you would like to be called?”

“Yea, I have many actually” Xiao Lin said with a smile.

He then continued by saying, “Anyway, you can call me Devil Fang. I am cool with that”

“Oh. Devil Fang. I like that” Zhao Yu said while Xiao Lin smiled.

She then asked with one of her brows furrowed, “I want to ask this question and I hope it won’t get on your nerves?”

“Oh. It’s alright. You can ask.” Xiao Lin replied.

“Alright. Thanks” Zhao Yu said.

She then spoke further by asking, “Why did you pick Devil Fang out of all the other nicknames that you claimed to have?”

“Well, I just love the name. Besides, it sounds tyrannical. It will definitely invoke fear in both Gods and Devils when they hear the name.” Xiao Lin responded.

“Haha. That’s nice.” Zhao Yu giggled and said.

Xiao Lin then asked as he looked at her, ” What about you? What nickname or nicknames do you have and which of them would you like me to call you”

“Hmm. Well, I also have many nicknames like you do. They were actually given to me by some of my female cultivator friends who are from the same neighboring town that I am from.”

“However, it’s too girlish and delicate in my own opinion. So, I made up one for myself which you can call me. I believe that should sound more tyrannical and fierce like the way your name does. Haha!”

“The thing is, I don’t want to be seen as a budding and delicate girl that needs protection from a powerful male all because of my embarrassing, girly nickname. So, I created one for myself to be seen as a fierce challenger and a domineering female fighter and combatant.”

“That moniker is the Hell-Devouring Blood Princess.” Zhao Yu said with a smile in her face as she stared at Xiao Lin who simply became lost of what to say. And this was because he was deeply astonished by the name that Zhao Yu gave herself, which basically sounded more fierce and tyrannical than his own.

Then seeing the astounded look on Xiao Lin’s face, Zhao Yu said with a smile, “I guess you are planning to review the nickname that you gave yourself, since mine sounds more badass and ferocious than yours. Haha!”

“Yea. You are right, Zhao Yu. I have to review mine again. And fortunately for me, I have been able to come up with a new nickname” Xiao Lin said and looked at her.

Kekeke!

Hearing what Xiao Lin said, Zhao Yu slightly giggled and said, “I see. So, we have started battle of nicknames right here, right? Alright, go on and tell me. I want to know the nickname that you just gave yourself”

While Xiao Lin who heard this, simply nodded his head and said with his lips curling into a bright smile, “Actually, I was able to quickly produce two newer nicknames for myself. And they are the Heavenly Tempests Bloodking and the Grand Darkness Dominating Blades.”

“Hmm. What a big and shameless thief you are Li Huang. You simply stole my nickname and modified it to your taste.” Zhao Yu said while Xiao Lin only shook his head with a smile in his face.

Then before he could say anything, Zhao Yu said further, “Anyways, they sound really tyrannical and should induce fear in your future opponents. You did a quick good job with the naming, Li Huang.”

“Thanks!” Xiao Lin said while Zhao Yu nodded her head.

But Zhao Yu who still had many more things to question Xiao Lin about, prepared to ask to get his responses to them. However, before she could really do so, Xiao Lin who just recalled something, looked at her and asked with a solemn expression in his face, “So, your nickname… Why that, Zhao Yu? Do you cultivate any energy that is blood-red in color, or gives the feeling that it is basically composed of blood?”

“Why do you ask?” Zhao Yu asked looking at Xiao Lin.

“Well, I asked because of the moniker that you gave yourself. You know, friends or people around at a particular location would only give other sorts of names to someone or an entity that has this signature move about them. I mean, take for example, someone called a Scarlet Flame Emperor. Such a name only means that the person, who might not necessarily be an emperor, actually possesses this magnificent and majestic aura that constantly revolves around them, or possesses a power that can rival that of actual emperors that preside over the affairs of a small or large empire. and is able to generate strong and raging, fierce flames that are colored either bright scarlet or dark scarlet.”

“So, because of the nickname that you gave yourself, which is the Hell-Devouring Blood Princess, I assumed that your aim is to devour the vast, endless flames of hell, and that you cultivate a special and uniquely characterized Spiritual Energy that could be blood-red in color.” Xiao Lin said and looked at Zhao Yu who only looked back at him with an impressed gaze in her eyes.

“Wow. You are intelligent” Zhao Yu said while Xiao Lin only smiled.

He then said, “Well, it’s not a matter of intelligence. Anyone, I mean cultivators, heck even mortals, should be able to quickly figure that simple thing out. It doesn’t require any sort and level of intelligence to say what I just said, Zhao Yu. So, what’s your response to my question?”

“Well, you are completely right about what you just said, which is nicknames should be based off what we say or do, or off the signature moves and feats that we effortlessly perform out there.” Zhao Yu said.

She then spoke further with a smile surfacing on her lips, “And yea, you are right about what you lastly mentioned, which was that do I cultivate a special kind of energy that is blood-colored. Actually, the kind of energy that I cultivate which is called the Limitless Devouring Flame Spiritual Energy, is an elemental Spiritual Energy that possesses dual characteristics of both fire and ice.”

“So, with a single thought from me after expelling it out of my hands, it will turn a into blood-colored flame that is both gentle and calm. It would appear docile and completely harmless to anyone that would see it. However, upon coming into contact with other sorts of Spiritual Energies, it will rapidly absorb them like it were a black hole and grow quickly in size and strength. Then still retaining it false and illusionary gentleness and harmlessness, it would engulf my challenger and rapidly turn him or her to ashes, that’s if I wanted that.”

“It was because of this physical docile property of my fire that my female cultivator friends gave me that fragile-sounding nickname that would make me sound weak to anyone that hears it”
