Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1105: Chapter 1105: Heroic Elegy

”Ah—!”

Ji Ning screamed in agony, his voice piercing through the gloomy sky.

Ling Xiao’s hands were tightly clenched, with blood seeping out from between his fingers.

The roaring of the war wolves finally ceased, and over twenty thousand soldiers of the Northern Desert Army had all arrived at the square.

Every face was filled with grief and reluctance.

Their clothes were tattered.

Their armor was covered in the enemy’s fresh blood.

Yet, their beloved General Lu Chenlong, had been brutally murdered.

Right within the Imperial City of this nation.

Right where the Emperor resided!

Soon, the stationed troops of the Imperial City also began to move, hundreds of thousands of troops surrounding the over twenty thousand Northern Desert Army soldiers and the Scorpion Tribe warriors.

The city gates were tightly closed.

The common people, trembling with fear, hid inside their houses peering out.

Could it be that the Imperial City was ultimately going to start a fierce battle?

They were afraid.

Truly afraid.

Among them, many had previously insulted Ji Ning, Lu Chenlong and others; they were terrified that the Northern Desert Army would seek revenge on them.

Although the soldiers of the Northern Desert Army were extremely grieved, they desperately wanted to kill Si Kong Zun right then.

But they were a troop with iron-like discipline.

Without orders, they would not act rashly.

Everyone was holding their weapons, suppressing the pain in their hearts, waiting for orders from Ji Ning or Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao was also in distress.

He felt like he could hardly contain himself anymore.

He truly wanted to massacre the city!

This Imperial City was too filthy, ninety percent of the people deserved to die!

Lu Chenlong was dead.

Ji Ning, Li Ruguang, Zhang Yu Fei, and Zhu Ge Ming had all become disabled; not only were their legs brutally crushed, but either their eyes were gouged out or their ears were cut off.

None of them were left unscathed.

A wicked fire was burning inside Ling Xiao’s body, nearly consuming his sanity.

Moon Lady stood there; even she, at that moment, could not help but feel sorrowful.

She had lived for too long and seen too many similar incidents; yet, every time, it was still difficult to accept.

”Dai Yuling, Dai Yaoling, Lan Yu’er, take the Great General and the commanders down for treatment.”

With every word Ling Xiao spoke, fresh blood dripped from the corners of his mouth.

He was enduring unbearable pain.

Faced with such a tragic scene, he genuinely wanted to transform into a demon and unleash his fury.

”Stop!”

Si Kong Zun suddenly bellowed: ”Ling Xiao, what are you trying to do? Leading the Northern Desert Army’s rebellion into the Imperial City and attempting to release the treacherous Ji Ning and others, do you realize this is a capital offense?”

He was yelling, but still stood far away.

Because he was afraid of the Moon Lady.

”A capital offense? I am merely rescuing the heroes of this nation from the hands of real traitors, where is the crime in that?”

Ling Xiao glared coldly at Si Kong Zun, wishing he could slice the flesh off this man’s body piece by piece to feed to the dogs.

”Who are you calling a traitor?”

Si Kong Zun asked coldly.

”Of course, you! Si Kong Zun!”

Ling Xiao suddenly pointed at Si Kong Zun and shouted fiercely.

What’s going on?

Many people were confused.

Most of the Imperial City’s defending army, including the common folk, were actually unaware of the truth; they believed whatever Si Kong Zun said, after all, no one dared to challenge his words as false.

Feng Qingyan and Feng Yanran from the Fire Phoenix Clan were forbidden from discussing this matter.

And the other survivors, mostly lackeys of the Ice Phoenix Clan, were even less likely to speak out.

So Si Kong Zun’s words naturally became the truth.

”Ling Xiao, do you think that by slandering Great General Si Kong, others will believe you? Today you have violated the heavenly law, no one can save you now!”

Within the crowd, Wan Qiu Feng, who was missing an arm, looked at Ling Xiao with triumph: ”Don’t worry, after you die, I will take good care of your woman without leaving any behind.”

”Kill him!”

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

No one knew to whom he was speaking.

But the next moment, Wan Qiu Feng’s head was separated from his body.

The person standing next to Wan Qiu Feng was one of the Dark Stinger members.

After killing Wan Qiu Feng, he quickly vanished into the crowd.

This was characteristic of the Dark Stingers.

They do not take action unless necessary, but once they do, it is deadly.

Too domineering!

Too formidable!

To dare kill a meritorious man right in front of two crown princes and the great general.

Ling Xiao is really audacious.

Just glancing indifferently at the corpse, Ling Xiao did not bother further.

Such filthy things, dead like a stinky rat, weren’t worth paying attention to.

”Si Kong Zun, you probably didn’t expect, I chased thousands of miles to bring back the head of Timmerman Muto!”

Ling Xiao sneered, lifting a head up.

What!

How is that possible!

Shocking!

Incredible!

The entire square was stirred once again.

”Someone come, verify this head!”

It was timely instructed by Feng Yingshan.

Someone had already gone forward to verify the head in front of everyone.

A quarter of an hour later.

”Reporting to Hidden Mountain Reserve Monarch, this is indeed Timmerman Muto’s head. Timmerman Muto once battled with the Emperor and was injured in-between. We’ve collected some of his human fibers, and after comparison, they are completely consistent!”

The one responsible for verifying the head was neither from the Ice Phoenix Clan nor the Fire Phoenix Clan, but from the Mingjing Division.

The Mingjing Division reports directly to the Emperor.

Their verification results would naturally have no issues.

”It really is Timmerman Muto’s head, how did you manage to do it, Ling Xiao?”

Even though the fact was right before his eyes, Feng Yingshan still found it hard to believe.

Not just him, everyone else couldn’t believe it either.

”Reporting to Hidden Mountain Reserve Monarch, I captured Jiumo Zhiyan alive, which lured Timmerman Muto to attack the Scorpion Tribe, attempting to seize the Blood Mirror to locate Jiumo Zhiyan. Resulting in Timmerman Muto severely injured in a major battle with the Scorpion King, and was captured by me.”

Ling Xiao spoke mostly the truth, just didn’t involve Moon Lady.

Anyway, besides the martial artists of the Scorpion Tribe and members of Dark Stinger, no one else was present, so no one would betray him.

Whatever he said was taken as the truth.

”No wonder, I had heard that the Scorpion King is a strong practitioner from the Yin-Yang Realm, comparable to Timmerman Muto, that makes sense now.”

Feng Yingshan nodded.

Hearing this, the rest also nodded, finally understanding that Ling Xiao took advantage of the situation.

But even if it was taking advantage, to kill Timmerman Muto and obtain his head was indeed a great merit.

How could he be a traitor?

”Hmph, since Timmerman Muto has already died in battle, it’s death without proof, who knows if the Black Crow Empire wants to use a corpse to help you become their undercover agent, to gain sympathy and trust?”

Si Kong Zun sneered.

”Si Kong Old Dog, you really are a case of not shedding tears until you see the coffin!”

Ling Xiao sneered and gently touched the Beast Ring, releasing Jiumo Zhi out of it.

”Jiumo Zhi!”

Feng Yingshan and Fengming Qishan almost stood up at the same time, exclaiming in surprise.

They were all too familiar with Jiumo Zhi.
