Bang!
Just the wind of White Cloud Great Master’s palm instantly turned a boulder into powder.
Ling Xiao, however, didn’t move from beginning to end.
He knew that White Cloud Great Master’s target was not him via the analysis of the Landscape Martial Soul.
From behind a boulder, a person flashed out.
This person wore a black robe, and his entire body was covered in dust, cutting a sorry figure.
He must not have guessed that White Cloud Great Master would make a feint to the east and attack the west.
“Hahaha, Uncle White Cloud Great Master! Sure enough, the man is old, but not his sword! You actually noticed this junior.”
When this person appeared, his true essence slightly shook, and the dust on his body immediately disappeared. Moreover, his appearance was also restored.
At this moment, a silvery Lunar Palace pattern on his cloth was clearly visible.
He absolutely didn’t look over 30. There was a smile on his face, but his eyes contained anger and embarrassment.
“Why are you here again?”
White Cloud Great Master’s face was somewhat unsightly.
He had long noticed that someone was peeping; therefore, he just vented his anger on that person.
Since Ling Xiao had killed Zuo Leng, he indeed was angry and even wanted to slap Ling Xiao to death.
But no matter how partial he was, he still had a bottom line. In the end, he couldn’t attack Ling Xiao.
Besides, Zuo Leng had already died. If Ling Xiao also died, his loss would only be bigger.
In the end, he hated himself for being unable to stop this life and death battle.
Ling Xiao naturally didn’t know what he was thinking, but neither was he interested in it. He was shocked that this black-robed person had been so near, but he had actually been unable to notice the other party, which proved that the other party was very powerful.
Thinking about it, he had heard from the path servant that someone had injured White Cloud Great Master. He guessed it was this person.
He quickly moved away. Then, the figure of that blue-robed woman he had encountered in Crouching Dragon Mountain Range suddenly appeared in his mind.
The reason was that blue-robed woman had also had a silvery Lunar Palace pattern on her clothes like this person.
Could it be that they were disciples of the same sect?
Lunar Palace pattern?
Moonlight Sect!
White Cloud Great Master was also a disciple of Moonlight Sect. It all made sense!
“As I said before, Uncle Master, you are already old. It is too wasteful for you to keep such outstanding disciples. How about giving me two of them? I don’t want more, just two!”
While speaking, that black-robed man’s gaze strayed to Ming Tian and Ling Xiao.
Obviously, he wanted Ling Xiao and Ming Tian.
“Don’t mention this matter again! I have already said that they are all my disciples. They will definitely enter Moonlight Sect in the future, and they will not enter your apprenticeship!”
White Cloud Great Master waved his hand.
At this moment, all eleven disciples including Ling Xiao were somewhat nervous. This young man who had suddenly appeared must be stronger than White Cloud Great Master.
Otherwise, with White Cloud Great Master’s character, he would have attacked long ago. He wouldn’t have wasted his breath on talking.
“Then, what about entering my Master’s apprenticeship?”
The black-robed man smiled and asked.
“Your Master?”
“Yes, my master. He and you entered the Moonlight Sect at the same time. However, it seems that your aptitude is limited. Now, your cultivation base is still at Rank One Transcendent Realm, but he has already broken through the shackles of Rank Nine Transcendent Realm and successfully entered the Celestial Realm three years ago.”
When he said this, he had a smug expression, and looking at White Cloud Great Master, his gaze was filled with disdainful taunting.
As for whether this would anger White Cloud Great Master or not, he didn’t seem to care at all.
He was stronger than White Cloud Great Master, and his master was even stronger.
“What! He has actually stepped into the Celestial Realm!”
White Cloud Great Master trembled, and his face became deathly pale. He obviously couldn’t accept it.
“Yes, after stepping into the Celestial Realm, Master has become an elder of Moonlight Sect, and now, he has powerful influence within Moonlight Sect!”
The black-robed man seemed to be excited.
White Cloud Great Master’s complexion, however, became even uglier.
He knew very well what being a Moonlight Sect Elder meant, and he was even clearer about what the Celestial Realm signified.
Even if his disciple entered the Moonlight Sect, as long as he was targeted by this person, he would face troubles nonstop.
“Now, do you understand my painstaking efforts? Let these two fellows go with me. Master can let go of past grievances and give a path for your remaining disciples.”
The black-robed man said with a smile.
“Humph, I don’t believe that Moonlight Sect will allow him to cover the heavens!”
White Cloud Great Master snorted and seemed to have recovered a bit of his confidence.
He might be able to be bullied, but his disciple was a genius!
“You are really stubborn. Since I can’t get them, I will cripple them now so as to save the trouble of dealing with them after they have entered the sect.”
It was a very simple truth. Before Ling Xiao and Ming Tian were official disciples of Moonlight Sect, he could kill them as he pleased.
But once these two joined the Moonlight Sect, it would take a lot of extra work. It might even involve some internal struggles of the sect, which would be very complicated.
Therefore, this was the best chance to kill them.
Just after he spoke, his figure quickly approached Ling Xiao, and he unleashed a killer move.
However, beyond the expectation of this black-robed man, a trivial Late Rank Eight Martial Vein Martial Master actually anticipated the danger and quickly dodged.
Eh?
He exclaimed in surprise, but just when he wanted to chase him further, White Cloud Great Master had rushed over.
“Want to kill them? You have to get past me first!”
True essence flowed through White Cloud Great Master’s palms. He was already displaying his full strength. He wanted to kill this black-robed man with this one full-powered attack.
“This is strange…. Uncle Master, don’t you want to kill this boy?”
The black-robed man actually smiled facing the full-powered attack of White Cloud Great Master. While speaking, he casually raised his hand, and a gloomy aura suddenly exploded, receiving White Cloud Great Master’s attack head-on.
Boom!
Terrifying shockwaves spread all around, which actually destroyed a pavilion on Life and Death Cliff. Even the ground was flattened by the residual power.
Fortunately, the other people knew how terrifying it would be when Transcendent Martial Artists exchanged blows. Therefore, they had hastily retreated far away. Otherwise, this terrifying power would have turned them into mincemeat.
Swish, swish!
Boom, boom!
Crackle, crackle!
The first attack failed, but White Cloud Great Master didn’t stop. He continued to attack. They floated in midair, completely different from martial artists below the Transcendent Realm.
Normally, martial artists below the Transcendent Realm who could float in midair for a short while were already quite powerful. As long as they had enough true essence, Transcendent Martial Artists could float for fifteen minutes without a problem.
Naturally, there were special circumstances such as freaks like Ling Xiao.
But they were all one in ten thousand monsters. They couldn’t be limited by common sense.
At this moment, two Transcendent Martial Arts were continuously exchanging blows in midair, and cracks appeared on the ground from time to time. The entire Life and Death Cliff almost turned into a world of broken stone and powder.
It had been a lofty mountain, but it was gradually being flattened.
“Amazing!”
Ling Xiao had been maintaining his Enter Soul State. Now, his soul power was very strong, so he could maintain it for a while although his consumption was relatively high.
However, this was a critical situation, so he had no time to think about that.
In the Enter Soul State, only he could clearly see the fight’s situation.
“Not good!”
Ling Xiao noticed that White Cloud Great Master was obviously at a disadvantage. At first, he had had a slight upper hand because of his sudden initial attack. But along with time, he had fallen into a complete disadvantage.
