Chapter 630: Chapter 630: Whale Island Master_1

Whale Island Master?

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but frown.

According to what Ling Wuheng had said, Whale Island was most likely related to the sect mission he had taken on, because it was a maritime power and its approximate location was very close to the mission’s target area.

It looked like he really had to make a trip there!

Having made up his mind, Ling Xiao stopped thinking about it and instead instructed Ling Luo, Ling Shuang, and Ling Zhan in their martial arts, and also made proper arrangements for Joshua Long’s position within the Divine Sword Sect.

In the end, Joshua Long was appointed as the Protector of the Divine Sword Sect, a position higher than Elder, where he didn’t need to manage the sect’s affairs and was only responsible for its security, which allowed him to cultivate in peace.

Lin Bei was appointed as the Elder Supreme, co-presiding over the Divine Sword Sect with Master Baiyun.

Most things went quite smoothly, but there was one matter that made Ling Xiao unavoidably frown.

And that was the fact that his grandfather, Hong Qi, had disappeared.

Before he left, Hong Qi had left a letter saying that he had an important matter to attend to and told Ling Xiao not to worry.

But he did not mention what it specifically was in the letter.

”Brother, when Grandfather left, he said that he thought he would be a useless person for his entire life, but seeing your successes, he suddenly felt that perhaps he could give it another try, so he decided to leave,” said Ling Luo, adding on.

”Useless person? Give it another try?”

”Right, didn’t Grandfather mention some gate?”

”Heaven’s Chosen Gate?”

Ling Xiao exclaimed.

”Yes, Heaven’s Chosen Gate, Brother, you know about it!”

Ling Xiao was truly shocked. Could it be that Hong Qi had also reached the vicinity of Heaven’s Chosen Gate?

Sigh, he could only hope that Grandfather was safe. No matter how powerful he used to be, he was still just an ordinary person now. He really hoped nothing would happen.

He sighed helplessly.

Hong Qi’s sudden departure without a goodbye surely meant he was determined, and Ling Xiao couldn’t stop the old man from choosing his path.

”Regarding the Heaven’s Chosen Gate, I also don’t know much, Brother. It’s a very mysterious place and also a very dangerous place. You’ll know when your cultivation level reaches a certain degree,” Ling Xiao said dotingly as he patted Ling Luo’s head with a smile.

”Mhm!”

A determined light shone in Ling Luo’s eyes.

Having Ling Xiao as a brother and a role model, Ling Luo was really not planning to slack off.

Hong Qi’s case lingered in Ling Xiao’s mind.

However, with his insufficient cultivation level, he could only gather some information within his capabilities, which made him even more eager to enhance his strength!

Without reaching the Heavenly Man Realm, one didn’t even qualify to set foot on the Divine Phoenix Continent!

May the Martial Arts Competition of the Four Sects come quickly, perhaps there would be some benefits to gain from it.

That night, Ling Xiao also discussed with the high-level officials of the Divine Sword Sect about which disciples to send to the Martial Arts Competition of the Four Sects, and eventually decided to let Ling Wuheng and Ling Yihang participate.

Although Joshua Long was stronger, Ling Xiao felt that there was no need to reveal the Divine Sword Sect’s trump card so soon.

After all, in others’ eyes, the Divine Sword Sect was just going to play an insignificant role. Even if they lost, it wouldn’t be a big deal, and instead, it could stir up the entire sect’s enthusiasm for cultivation.

Ling Wuheng was just over twenty years old, and Ling Yihang was only slightly older than Ling Xiao, so both of them met the qualifications for the competition.

That same night, Ling Xiao helped Ling Wuheng and Ling Yihang to clear their meridians and bestowed upon each of them a set of Gold-superior Level Martial Arts.

Although he also had Gold-top Level Martial Arts, the Cultivation Levels of these two were still too low to practice it, even with his assistance.

Gold-superior Level Martial Arts were already sufficiently good.

All night he guided the two in their Cultivation, while Ling Luo, Ling Shuang, and Ling Zhan watched and occasionally asked questions.

As for the others from the Divine Sword Sect, they were under the guidance of Lin Bei and Joshua Long, so he need not worry about them.

”Based on the current progress, both of you should be able to advance to around Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer Heaven during the four sects’ martial meeting. Go into seclusion now, feel free to use any pills and Spiritual Fruit from inside the Sect, don’t be polite.”

Having said that, Ling Xiao stood up, ready to leave. He still had Sect duties to complete, and now that the Divine Sword Sect’s matters had been resolved, it was time to leave.

However, what he hadn’t expected was that, just as he stood up, a message came from outside.

”The Whale Island Master has led the disciples of Whale Island towards Tianfeng City. They come with a fierce momentum, and it looks like they are here for trouble.”

Upon hearing this news, the people of Tianfeng City became panic-stricken, with many packing up to flee for their lives.

The city gate was crowded to the point of bursting.

It seemed that the Divine Sword Sect had not done well enough for a long time, to the point that the people of Tianfeng City had so little faith in them that any Tom, Dick, or Harry could scare them into such panic.

”Ling Wuheng, Ling Yihang, the two of you continue your seclusion without worry. Master Baiyun is busy disciplining his daughter and has no time. Everyone else, follow me to the city gate!”

Ling Xiao decided he would meet this Whale Island Master, which was also a great opportunity for the Divine Sword Sect to demonstrate their strength. Therefore, people like Joshua Long and Lin Bei were to take action as well.

At the East City Gate, facing the direction of Dragon Gate Harbor, almost everyone was trying to flee outward, and even those remaining in the city were deeply anxious.

Suddenly, a voice rang out from the sky, thunderous and resonant.

”The citizens of Tianfeng City need not fear, for this is the domain of the Divine Sword Sect. No matter who comes, the Divine Sword Sect will stand in front for you!”

Ling Xiao’s words, evidently, were not believed by many.

But everyone was still somewhat skeptical.

Moreover, with dust rising in the distance and a large number of troops approaching, even those who wanted to flee could no longer do so. Thus, those who had reached the city gate began to retreat back into the city, watching the Divine Sword Sect and hoping for a miracle.

”I’ve heard that the Whale Island Master transformed from a giant whale, possessing tremendous strength. He even devoured a Martial Artist at the Martial Vein Realm Ninth Layer Peak in one bite!”

”I’ve also heard that not even the experts sent by General Lin Ze could handle him.”

”Can the Divine Sword Sect do it?”

”Can the Divine Sword Sect really be stronger than the Governor’s Mansion?”

The current governor of Baiyun Province was Lin Ze, who had seized control of both the military and political power. He harshly suppressed the Green-eyed Clan and the Ninja Clan and was thoroughly adored by the people of Baiyun Province.

The fleeing people’s intended destination was actually Yunkong City.

In their hearts, the Divine Sword Sect was no match for the Governor’s Mansion. If the Governor’s Mansion couldn’t solve the problem, it was even less likely for the Divine Sword Sect to have a solution.

”Whoever injured the disciples of Whale Island, come out and face your death!”

Amidst the general panic, a black shadow soared towards Tianfeng City like a goshawk, and his voice exploded in mid-air, thunderous.

Many Martial Artists and ordinary citizens felt a tremendous pressure bearing down upon them, making even breathing seem difficult.

However, this pressure dissipated quickly after passing through Ling Xiao’s body, and those standing behind and beside him instantly felt unburdened.

This Elder Supreme was quite impressive!

This Divine Sword Sect was somewhat formidable!

These were the most sincere thoughts in people’s minds.

Ordinary people are just like that; they naturally respect whoever can protect them.

Although it might seem somewhat opportunistic, they too needed to survive.
