Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1120: Chapter 1120: The City Lord Steps In

”You have spine, but there’s no need to constantly speak of death. Today, with me here, I would like to see who can cause your demise!”

A commanding voice rose from the crowd, followed by a figure who slowly walked up beside Lin Qian.

The young man exuded a spirited vitality, yet he also carried a composed maturity and an unfathomable aura that commanded respect.

The middle-aged woman glanced at the youth but did not recognize that this was Ling Xiao.

After all, the person in the portrait looked far too different from the real person.

”Kid, I’d advise you not to meddle in other people’s business. Here, sticking your nose into others’ affairs could cost you your life!”

The middle-aged woman coldly shot a glance at Ling Xiao and said.

Despite Ling Xiao’s imposing presence, he was, after all, only a young man who appeared to be no older than sixteen or seventeen; she naturally wasn’t intimidated.

”Meddling? I’m quite determined to meddle today! Look at you, at such an age, aren’t you ashamed? Just for the sake of cultivating on Turtle Island, you neglect your own children and husband, offering yourself up to the Duke of Eastern Province.

You say you’re shameless, putting a green hat on your husband is one thing, but to let your own precious daughter be humiliated by that so-called Young Marquis!

Not only are you shameless to the core, but you’re also wicked to the bone. You’d be more suited to being a madam in the Qinglou.”

Ling Xiao’s words were far from kind, for with a woman like her, why should he bother with pleasantries?

The middle-aged woman’s face darkened with an uncertain look, unsure of how to deal with Ling Xiao.

The young man who dared to talk to her in such a manner was surely backed by a powerful force.

Lin Qian looked at the towering figure beside her, her heart filled with warmth and security.

She didn’t know who this person was.

But on the vast Divine Phoenix Continent, it was incredibly rare to encounter a man who would stand up for her like this.

In her mind, the image of Ling Xiao suddenly overlapped with the towering figure before her.

Could it really be him?

Lin Qian’s face blushed slightly, her heart unexpectedly thrilled.

She hadn’t misjudged him.

Her admired Ling Xiao, the chivalrous young hero, would never stand idly by and watch someone like her being bullied.

For a moment, Ling Xiao, already full of youthful heroism, seemed even more gallant and dashing in her eyes.

”Kid, where in the world did you crawl out from? Can’t you see who I am? You think you have a say in this matter? Scram right now, or I’ll kill you too!”

Ming Liu hadn’t recognized Ling Xiao.

But even if he had, he would probably have the same attitude.

To Ming Liu, he genuinely disdained Ling Xiao and didn’t just put on an act.

After all, he hadn’t personally witnessed any of the so-called heroic deeds of Ling Xiao; they were all hearsay.

How much truth can be found in the mouth of storytellers? He couldn’t possibly care.

It seemed as if Ling Xiao hadn’t heard Ming Liu’s words; he continued to stare at the middle-aged woman and said indifferently, ”Get lost. I don’t want to see you again. I’m giving you the chance to take thirty breaths to leave. After that, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

As much as he felt displeased and disgusted by such a rotten person, he was not yet inclined to kill.

This middle-aged woman was a typical example of a villain.

To achieve her own goals, she would resort to any means necessary, ready to sacrifice everyone else, let alone a stranger like Lin Qian.

”Don’t you dare leave! If you do, I’ll kill you!”

An authoritative and violently angry voice erupted: ”Brat, when I’m speaking to you, you dare to ignore me? You must really be tired of living.”

The feeling of being slighted was not a pleasant one.

Especially for someone like Ming Liu.

Before, in the Eastern Province, whenever he spoke, no one dared not to respond, even a virtuous and chaste woman like Lin Qian had to respond.

As for agreeing to some rude requests, that’s another matter.

But this brat in front of him, he actually refused to even respond to his words, what did he take him for?

Invisible?

”Young Marquis, killing this kid is letting him off too easy. Recently, that Qinglou has those * services, right? This kid looks pretty good, why not sell him there, we can get some Spirit Stone in return.”

The one speaking was the guard who had previously insulted Lin Qian several times.

This guy truly took sycophancy and bullying through another’s power to the extreme.

However, this time, he truly hit a steel plate.

Ling Xiao didn’t make a move, but Leng Mei couldn’t hold back any longer.

In Leng Mei’s eyes, there was no good or evil, only Ling Xiao.

Anyone who dared to insult Ling Xiao deserved to die.

Especially an insult of this magnitude.

Leng Mei made her move, simply flicking her finger lightly, and a plum blossom shot forth, instantly piercing through the guard’s forehead.

”Ah—!”

The corpse of the guard flew out, causing many nearby people to scream in terror.

Martial Artists have a bit more courage than ordinary people, but facing an expert who kills without leaving a trace, they are still afraid.

”Dammit, who dares to kill my men?”

Ming Liu’s voice was filled with anger, and some fear: ”Captain Zhang, aren’t you coming over quickly? I, your young master, am being bullied!”

The Captain Zhang he was referring to, was a Martial Artist with a Ten Directions Heaven Cultivation level, much stronger than this dandy young master.

When Captain Zhang led over a hundred guards over and protected him, that’s when his pride and satisfaction bloomed again.

”I’m the one who killed him.”

Ling Xiao spoke indifferently: ”Since you wanted to sell me to Qinglou to be a whore, I had no choice but to let him go to Hell to be a little ghost first.”

”Who the hell are you, do you know who I am? How dare you publicly kill my subordinate?”

Ming Liu coldly interrogated.

”Young Marquis, he surely doesn’t recognize you; otherwise, he’d be scared out of his wits and wouldn’t dare to offend you like this.”

Captain Zhang said with a smile.

”Haha, that’s right, that’s right, in the Eastern Province, anyone who knows who I am is very polite to me, even officials from the Imperial City wouldn’t dare to slight me like this.”

Ming Liu was enjoying this flattery.

”His flattery isn’t bad, and the degree of your narcissism is impressive.”

Ling Xiao sighed: ”Even if I didn’t know who you were before, with them constantly calling you Young Marquis, as long as I’m not deaf, naturally I would know your identity.

The sole son of the Duke of Eastern Province, Young Marquis Ming Liu.

The most shameless and despicable man in the entire Eastern Province.

Well, maybe not, your father, the Duke of Eastern Province might be even more shameless and despicable than you.”

”You! You dare to slander me and my father, who gave you such audacity!”

Ming Liu was so furious he was practically steaming from seven orifices.

He had never seen someone as clueless about their own death as the person before him.

Grinding his teeth, he threatened word by word: ”Seeing as you’re a new face, I’ll give you a way out; kneel down in front of everyone here, and lick my shoes clean!”

Naturally, he was not going to give Ling Xiao a way out; letting Ling Xiao die directly would be letting him off too easy, so he planned to humiliate Ling Xiao before taking action.
