Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

In Lord Liu’s view, Ling Xiao is absolutely not someone to offend.

This young man is terrifying, definitely the type who would kill someone over a disagreement.

The crowd also felt Ling Xiao’s demand was not unreasonable, as Lord Liu had already intended to give the Ice-Fire Grass to Sun Yuan Ji.

”Please wait, young hero!”

Lord Liu left briefly, returning with a flowerpot containing a strange plant of ice and fire interwoven, shining with a unique glow.

Ling Xiao was very satisfied with Lord Liu’s response.

Honestly, if Lord Liu had refused to hand over the Ice-Fire Grass, Ling Xiao would have left immediately, without caring about the Willis Clan’s fate afterward.

Fortunately, Lord Liu did not disappoint him.

”Miss Liu, sit cross-legged!”

Ling Xiao instructed.

Liu Lian nodded, sitting cross-legged in midair, about one foot above the ground.

Then Ling Xiao released the Eye of the Immortal Pot, completely absorbing the energy of the Ice-Fire Grass.

As the Ice-Fire Grass completely withered, Ling Xiao ceased his absorption.

”I will help you restore your cultivation to the pinnacle. With that, even if Shaw Little Monster comes, you won’t need to fear.”

With these words, a black and white intermingled light burst from the Immortal Pot, injecting into Liu Lian’s body.

Hearing Ling Xiao’s words, both Lord Liu and the crowd were stunned.

This whole time, Ling Xiao sought the Ice-Fire Grass not to take it for himself, but for Liu Lian.

To have such a person involved with the Willis Clan is truly fortunate.

Roughly a quarter of an hour later, Ling Xiao retracted the Immortal Pot.

Liu Lian opened her eyes, filled with a spirited gaze.

She turned her head joyfully to Ling Xiao: ”Brother Ling, I’ve recovered, finally recovered!”

”It’s good that you’ve recovered.”

Ling Xiao glanced at Lord Liu and said, ”The remaining energy of the Ice-Fire Grass, I’ll take as my reward, no problem?”

”No problem!”

Lord Liu replied hastily.

What a joke, though the Ice-Fire Grass is good, it can’t restore Liu Lian’s cultivation so quickly.

Now, paying the price of the Ice-Fire Grass to restore his daughter’s former cultivation not only allows her to regain qualification for the White Tiger Summit but also ensures the safety of the Willis Clan.

This transaction is immensely profitable.

”In that case, I will take my leave now. Miss Liu, see you at the White Tiger Summit.”

Ling Xiao smiled slightly, then walked away, leaving nothing behind.

As always, he was so elegant, so free.

Liu Lian wanted to call out to Ling Xiao but ultimately gave up.

She liked Ling Xiao, yet could not force him to like her back.

More importantly, the Willis Clan needs her now, and she cannot leave so easily.

Meanwhile, Ling Xiao had returned to the Yingjie Building.

The place had clearly seen many battles.

The air was filled with the stench of death.

Even though bloodstains had been cleaned and bodies properly handled, to Ling Xiao’s senses, the lingering scent was unmistakable.

He opened a door, entering the courtyard where the remaining six martial artists of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire resided.

Ji Luoyu had gone to Tianlong Trade Company to find her father Ji Qing to gather materials for Ling Xiao’s Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiends Red Sun Spicy Hot Pot, so she wasn’t here.

The place was also heavy with the stench of blood.

However, Dan Feng and the others were still alive, which relieved him.

He didn’t ask what happened because there was no need.

He wasn’t their babysitter; some things they must experience.

He just took out healing pills for the injured, allowing them to recover.

Meanwhile, he gave the Wan Gui Banner, Nine Nether Devil Skill, and Nine-headed Demon Bird Martial Soul to Leng Mei, advising her to enter seclusion for cultivation.

There was still plenty of time before the White Tiger Summit. If Leng Mei trained well, she would surely break through before the summit began.

”Brother Dan Feng, please protect the place, I’ll enter seclusion.”

Ling Xiao entered his room with Leng Mei, then took out the Tai Chi Stone.

He swallowed it whole.

Others use the Tai Chi Stone by extracting its energy, but he was so domineering that he ate it like candy.

”Leng Mei, if you encounter any trouble, call me. Don’t act on your own.”

After reminding Leng Mei, Ling Xiao entered a cultivation state.

The energies of yin and yang released from the Tai Chi Stone continuously flowed into his meridians.

Above his head, a new Hell’s Gate emerged.

Inscribed with the words ”Steaming Hell”.

This is the Fifth Layer of Hell. Its appearance also indicated that Ling Xiao was not far from the Yin-Yang Realm Sixth Level.

His Soul Core, situated in the Steaming Hell, was continuously assaulted by terrifying steam, making it feel as if it were about to melt.

Ling Xiao’s Soul held there and began cultivating.

This environment is excellent for tempering the soul; Ling Xiao would not miss this chance.

On the other side, Leng Mei also entered cultivation, holding the Wan Gui Banner, whose yin forces surged into her body. Her Nine-headed Demon Bird Martial Soul began fusing with her ghostly spirit Martial Soul.

With the operation of Nine Nether Devil Skill, the yin forces began to temper her body and elevate her cultivation level.

The room filled with a chilling aura.

Even the recently deceased souls from Yingjie Building were attracted to the frightening, ghostly aura, entering the room.

Outside, people could hear the wails and screams of ghosts and wolves.

But they need not worry.

With Ling Xiao inside, nothing unforeseen would happen.

”Alright, everyone also start cultivating. Before the White Tiger Summit, increase your cultivation as much as possible; I’ll help protect the place.”

Dan Feng looked at the others and said.

His cultivation level was difficult to break through unless he acquired some shacklestick-breaking treasure or went on a fantastic adventure.

For now, he had to constantly accumulate Yin-Yang Elemental Force, so that when the time was ripe, he could naturally break through.

...

While the seven martial artists of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire cultivated or healed,

News of Sun Yuan Ji’s death had spread across Tianhai City.

With so many onlookers, trying to suppress the news was impossible.

By now, almost everyone in Tianhai City knew that the top-twentieth ranked candidate martial artist Sun Yuan Ji was killed by Ling Xiao of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire from the Dragon and Phoenix Continent.

This was a shocking event indeed.

Historically, martial artists from the Tian Long Continent and God Phoenix Continent coming to the White Tiger Continent, even the most talented, never ranked in the top one hundred.

Yet today, someone from the top-twentieth, Sun Yuan Ji, was killed, how could this not shock people?

Once again, the Willis clan residence became a gathering place for martial artists.

Because Shaw Little Monster came seeking revenge.

Shaw Little Monster looked extremely brutish, dressed like a savage, and his seemingly robust body emitted a fearsome beast-like aura.

The martial artists of the Willis Clan watched Shaw Little Monster in the courtyard with trepidation.

They did not expect revenge to come so quickly.
