Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1073: Chapter 1073: Body of Divine Light

Xie Mang’s forehead broke out in beads of sweat the size of soybeans.

It was a cold sweat, one filled with terror.

He actually hadn’t noticed anyone nearby!

Could it be that Xie Li was merely bluffing?

Yes, that must be it!

Thinking this, he cast an icy glance toward Xie Li and said, ”You wench, you dare to scare me? Watch how I deal with you!”

With a sneer of rage at the corner of his mouth, Xie Mang pounced on Xie Li.

However, in that instant, Xie Mang suddenly felt an extreme danger and his body subconsciously dodged to the side.

Sadly, it was in vain.

His cultivation level was not much stronger than Ling Xiao’s; it was simply impossible for him to evade the attack of the Shadow Cone.

”No! Impossible!”

In the final moments of his life, Xie Mang used all his strength to turn his head and look behind himself.

What he saw was a figure.

A figure even younger than the Shadow Swordsman Situ Mo.

The man walked over with a light laugh, as he frantically wished for revenge, but his consciousness was already blurring.

”How about it, Sister Xie Li, did I do a good job?”

Ling Xiao said with a smile as he looked at Xie Li, who was tied up with complex bindings.

When not in her Scorpion form, Xie Li truly had a charming air about her.

Naughtier and more ruthless than Yun Ya!

”You little monster, hurry up and untie your sister!”

Xie Li chided.

”That’s not right, Sister Xie Li, how could you forget your blood oath so quickly? I’ve saved you today; you’re now my servant. Why still call yourself ’sister’?”

Ling Xiao asked with a laugh.

”I can’t believe you care about such things. Alright, alright, young master, would you be so kind as to unbind your servant?”

Xie Li said with a resigned, bitter smile.

”That’s more like it.”

Ling Xiao cracked a slight smile, flicked his hand, and several sword qi soared through the air, easily cutting the ropes apart.

Although he couldn’t achieve Unity of Man and Sword yet, using his hand in place of a sword was very comfortable for him.

The moment Xie Li was untied, a tail swiftly wound around Ling Xiao, and afterward, a gloomy blue stinger hovered above Ling Xiao’s head, with venom rolling over it.

”Hehe, I bet you didn’t see this coming, little brother. You’ve fallen into your sister’s hands at last.”

Xie Li said darkly.

”Sister, how can you be so ungrateful? I saved you, but you want to kill me. Aren’t you afraid of the blood oath?”

Ling Xiao pretended to be scared and asked.

”Hmph, you’re no different from those other scoundrels. Don’t think I don’t know; you’re here to help Mu Tu and the Lizard people against our Scorpion Tribe, right?”

Xie Li snorted coldly, ”Yes, attacking you will make me explode and die due to the blood oath, but I assure you, I will definitely kill you before I die.”

”My dear sister, you’ve really misunderstood.” Ling Xiao said with a bitter smile, ”Our Phoenix God Empire and the Black Crow Empire are mortal enemies. I heard them discussing going to your Scorpion Tribe to snatch some treasure, so I simply followed to see if I could foil their plan. That would be best. How can you lump me together with them?”

”Really?”

Xie Li asked with a mixture of belief and doubt.

”Of course it’s true.”

Ling Xiao nodded.

”Is it because you’re afraid of dying, so you’re just spouting nonsense?”

Xie Li asked coldly.

”Afraid of dying?” Ling Xiao scoffed. ”Sister Xie Li, you’re really overestimating yourself. With your inner strength imprisoned, your current strength is at best around the Seven Star Sky Realm, right? You really think you can take me with that?”

After saying that, Ling Xiao’s body unexpectedly transformed into numerous points of light, then flew out and, a few meters away, reconvened.

”How is this possible, what’s going on!”

Even Xie Li was shocked by this move from Ling Xiao; it was much more powerful than their Scorpion Tribe’s Shell Shedding Technique.

”Ever heard of the Unity of Man and Light?”

Ling Xiao said with a slight smile.

He had previously observed the moves of Shadow Swordsman Situ Mo and suddenly had an inspiration. He managed to fathom the intricacies of Unity of Man and Light as well as Unity of Man and Shadow, thereby understanding the Light and Shadow Profound Mysteries Fifth Step.

What he had just deployed was the ”Body of Light” from the Fifth Step of the Mysteries of Light.

The mystery of the Body of Light lies in being able to transform one’s body into countless points of light, either to dodge an enemy’s attack or to form into spheres or beams of light to strike the enemy.

In short, anything that light can do, the Body of Light can achieve, just not at the true speed of light, since the human body has its limitations.

To truly reach the speed of light, Ling Xiao has to continue to increase his cultivation level, or else with his current level, it is definitely impossible.

But for Ling Xiao, being able to dodge attacks with the Body of Light is already very helpful at the moment.

Unless the opponent’s fighting will can suppress him, making it impossible to dodge attacks even when transformed into light, otherwise, he would definitely have an absolute advantage in battle.

Of course, Ling Xiao wouldn’t explain such detailed information to Xie Li.

”Looks like you’ve never heard of it, but no matter, in any case, it’s not very likely that you can kill me, so there’s no need for me to lie to you.”

Seeing Xie Li’s stunned expression, Ling Xiao felt very satisfied.

The opponent’s true strength was much stronger than his, yet she was fooled by his move, how could he not be pleased?

”Alright, I believe you and am willing to honor the promise, but my tribemates are in trouble, and I have other things to do now, so just wait here. If I’m still alive when I return, I’ll definitely keep my promise.”

Xie Li sighed.

”No rush, let me first help sister lift the imprisonment.”

Ling Xiao said lightly.

”Don’t joke, my inner strength was personally imprisoned by Timmerman Muto, how could you possibly lift it?”

Xie Li said with a bitter smile shaking her head: ”I know you mean well, but really, don’t bother.”

”Without trying, how do we know it’s useless? What Timmerman Muto calls imprisonment is just setting up a Magic Array on you. For me, that’s a piece of cake.”

Ling Xiao said with a slight smile, he didn’t want to let Xie Li die.

If Xie Li died, then wouldn’t his rescue have been in vain?

”Alright then, go ahead and try.”

Xie Li had no hope, she just felt that as the master, she couldn’t refuse Ling Xiao.

But who could have expected that with just a few taps on her body by Ling Xiao, the strange inscriptions on her gradually faded away.

”My sweet darling, I adore you!”

Xie Li suddenly hugged Ling Xiao and kissed him.

This was an unexpected delight, she could clearly feel her strength returning, different from the half-dead feeling before, she had now regained the cultivation level of the Tenth Firmament.

Although this strength was not enough to deal with Timmerman Muto, it could at least save some Scorpion people.

”Goodness me, sister, you’re too enthusiastic, luckily, you kissed my cheek, otherwise my first kiss would’ve been gone.”

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but smile bitterly; indeed, he couldn’t avoid Xie Li once she had regained her cultivation level unless Butterfly Girl helped out.

Although it was not an attack this time, but a kiss, it was still frustrating.
