“It’s truly sinister enough. It looks like she doesn’t want to let me rest until I die…”
Ling Xiao sneered and asked: “Are there many people that are trying to capture me?”
“Yes, there are many people! Some people are not coming for the rewards, but simply for the treasure of the ancient martial artist’s cave-dwelling. Allegedly, even a Rank Seven Transcendent Realm martial artist has come.”
“Tsk tsk, even a Rank Seven Transcendent Realm martial artist has appeared. It seems Fairy Linglong’s plan succeed.”
Ling Xiao couldn’t help grinning. Meng Yuan was also a Rank Seven Transcendent Realm martial artist, was a Peak Rank Seven Transcendent Realm leveled martial artist. How about he test his strength against this Rank Seven Transcendent Realm martial artist now? And after returning to the Moonlight Sect, he would be more confident to deal with Meng Yuan!
Thinking of this, he looked at the martial artist on the ground. It would be better to let this fellow return to report. Now, he wanted to weaken Fairy Linglong’s influence as much as possible and make those martial artists understand that whoever helped Fairy Linglong would die.
Therefore, it was best to make those martial artists enter the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range, then wait for the opportunity to make a move.
After all, with the Landscape Martial Soul, he was much more familiar with the terrain of Crouching Dragon Mountain Range than those martial artists.
“Let’s go and watch a good show. I will let you return after we finished watching it!”
Ling Xiao dragged that tied martial artist to a concealed place.
After about ten minutes, dozens of martial artists appeared where Ling Xiao had set up ‘Plague Turn Array’.
“Sixty-seven, hehe, there are so many people here. The strongest one is already at Initial Rank Five Transcendent Realm. Amazing, but it’s truly a pity that no one will return alive from here.”
Ling Xiao smiled coldly.
The martial artist who was kidnapped by Ling Xiao didn’t understand the situation, but he suddenly saw the most frightening thing in his life.
Sixty-seven Transcendent Realm martial artists!
However, at that moment, a huge skull pattern suddenly appeared on the ground.
Immediately afterward, green lights shot out from the ground, and a green humanoid monster appeared in midair. It then opened its mouth and those martial artists fell to the ground in succession.
Along with screaming and wailing sounds, sixty-seven Transcendent Realm martial artists quickly turned into mummified corpses. Their blood integrated into that strange pattern, then condensed into a stream of energy, which entered that green humanoid monster’s body.
In just an instant, everything was over.
A strong smell of urine entered Ling Xiao’s nostrils.
“Truly useless, scram, and after you go back, tell Fairy Linglong, I, this Young Master, is still alive and well. If she wants my life, come to the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range if she has guts. If she doesn’t just stay in the Sand Family Fortress and wait for this Young Master to come and kill her.”
After speaking, Ling Xiao directly threw that martial artist away, then he quickly disappeared into the forest.
Originally, he planned to immediately go to take revenge on Fairy Linglong, but now, he wanted to test his strength.
Naturally, before that, he planned to refine the six hundred years old Profound Spirit Herb into top-grade True Essence Pills.
……
Sand Family Fortress, Fairy Linglong’s Palace.
It was probably the most beautiful building in the Sand Family Fortress. The material used to build it was actually white jade. Moreover, various formations and arrays were arranged on it, strictly protecting this place’s owner——
Fairy Linglong.
It was just that the atmosphere of Fairy Linglong’s fairy palace was a little gloomy today. Fairy Linglong sat on an exquisitely-made queen throne, and her eyebrows were knitted.
Next to her, there were two people sitting.
One was the stern-faced martial artist Ling Xiao was familiar with, and the other one was an unfamiliar person. It was just that he was wearing the standard outfit of Beast King Palace.
This person’s cultivation base was very terrifying. He seemed even stronger than Meng Yuan.
He was leaning back on the chair, holding a pure white mouse in his bosom, seemingly indifferent to everything.
Other than these three people, there were many martial artists in the hall. The one with the worst cultivation base also had the cultivation base of Initial Rank Four Transcendent Realm.
On the floor of the hall, a martial artist in ragged clothes was kneeling on the ground with a frightened look.
His cultivation base was actually Peak Rank Four Transcendent Realm, but he was trembling continuously as if he had encountered something terrifying.
He was the lucky person Ling Xiao sent back to report.
“Did what you say true?”
The stern-faced martial artist looked at this person coldly, gritted his teeth, and asked.
“Answering to my lord, it’s all true. This subordinate saw those people being swallowed up by a strange formation. That kid surnamed Ling is too scary. No, this subordinate suspected that he is not a human, rather a monster in human disguise!”
The martial artist kneeling on the ground answered the stern-faced martial artist’s question. He was almost crying.
“Speaking nonsense!”
The stern-faced martial artist was furious: “How can there be such a monster?”
“Lord Lengmian, you don’t need to be so angry. According to the legend, such a monster exists in the depths of the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range.”
A martial artist sitting below said with a smile: “I would rather believe what he said. After all, that kid surnamed Ling is just a trifling Initial Rank Three Transcendent Realm martial artist. Even if is extraordinary, he should be on the level of Mid or Late Rank Three Transcendent Realm, how can he kill so many people? It’s definitely the work of a monster.”
“Humph, regardless of whether he is a monster or the kid surnamed Ling, we must investigate this matter clearly. Sixty-seven Transcendent Realm martial artists disappeared at the same time. This is not a trivial matter. Moreover, because many martial artists already knew this matter, no one is willing to go into Crouching Dragon Mountain Range.”
Fairy Linglong snorted coldly and said: “This person surnamed Ling is too cunning. He is just fourteen years old, but his cultivation base was already at Initial Rank Three Transcendent Realm. His aptitude is too frightening. If he is not killed now, he will be a deadly threat to us.”
“Fairy!”
The martial artist kneeling on the ground suddenly spoke.
“What’s wrong?”
“That kid surnamed Ling said that, even if you don’t send martial artists to find and kill him, he will come to the Sand Family Fortress to find you. He also said that whoever dares to help you, he will kill all of them!”
“Bastard!” The stern-faced martial artist furiously slammed on the table, and the table instantly turned into powder. “That fellow is truly arrogant enough!”
He then looked at Fairy Linglong and said: “Fairy, let me personally lead people into the mountain to search for him tomorrow. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will find that kid and tear him into thousands of pieces!”
“Hmm, I’ll be at ease leaving it to you.”
Fairy Linglong had always trusted the stern-faced martial artist. This time was also no exception.
“You will be at ease?”
The disciple of the Beast King Palace, who had been silent from the beginning, spoke.
“Do you all know what his name is? Which sect’s disciple he is? And what he has done before?”
“Senior Brother Wang, do you know?”
Fairy Linglong looked at the Beast King Palace’s disciple, and a smile appeared on her face. This person surnamed Wang was called Wang She.
Just like his name, he was very vicious and treacherous.
Cooperating with this person was tantamount to seeking the tiger’s skin. You might be swallowed by the other party at any time.
But Fairy Linglong had no other choice.
If she wanted to kill Ling Xiao, she could only do this.
After all, he, however, was the tenth-ranked powerhouse among the ten core disciples of the Beast King Palace, and his cultivation base had already reached Initial Rank Eight Transcendent Realm.
