Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

After speaking, Ling Xiao didn’t wait for anyone’s response and directly leapt away.

He truly walked away as soon as he spoke, leaving everyone shaking their heads with wry smiles.

”Big brother isn’t an emperor, is he? I think I heard you call him Your Majesty?”

After Ling Xiao left, Red Moon, feeling bored, tilted her head and asked.

”Brother Ling is Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor of our Heavenly Dynasty Empire. He single-handedly overthrew the rule of the True Demon Empire, founded the Heavenly Dynasty Empire on the Heavenly Dragon Continent, and later unified the Divine Phoenix Continent.

Now, Divine Phoenix and Tian Long have merged into one, becoming the Dragon and Phoenix Continent; all of this is thanks to him.”

Dan Feng said with unabashed pride.

Being able to befriend someone like Ling Xiao was one of the greatest fortunes of his life.

While they were chatting here, Ling Xiao had already appeared in the Qijing Tower.

Upon entering the Qijing Tower, he rushed upwards.

Back in the day, when his cultivation level was much lower than it is now, he could reach the top floor of the Qijing Tower.

Now that his cultivation is much stronger, no one could stop him on his way up.

It wasn’t until he reached the entrance of the top floor stairs that someone finally blocked him.

”I’m sorry, but the top floor has been reserved by the Princess Consort today, for entertaining the martial artists participating in the White Tiger Summit from the Tianhai Empire. Please leave.”

The one blocking Ling Xiao was none other than Shangguan Qing Er.

However, since Ling Xiao had changed his appearance, Shangguan Qing Er couldn’t recognize him.

”Reserved? What’s she reserving? Her face?”

Ling Xiao disdainfully glanced at Shangguan Qing Er and said, ”I’m just going up to buy something, step aside.”

Today was a happy day for him, and he didn’t want to make a fuss. If the Princess Consort truly reserved the top floor, he would just leave after buying his wine.

He wouldn’t linger here long.

”You’re really presumptuous, don’t think that just because you won a spot in the White Tiger Summit through brute strength, you can disregard everyone under heaven. Get lost!”

Shangguan Qing Er shouted angrily.

”That’s right, I do disregard you, so what?”

Ling Xiao didn’t want to use force, but Shangguan Qing Er, relying on her status as the Princess Consort’s attendant, insisted on stopping him from entering the top floor, which displeased him.

”Looking for a fight!”

Shangguan Qing Er angrily drew her sword and thrust it at him.

Without even looking, Ling Xiao slapped her directly.

The crisp sound of a slap echoed up the stairs, and Shangguan Qing Er was sent flying up onto the floor.

”A bitch who courts trouble, ungrateful even when given face.”

Ling Xiao cursed, then lifted his foot and headed towards the top floor.

This was Ling Xiao’s second time stepping onto the top floor of the Qijing Tower.

There were quite a few people on this floor.

Fan Ruohai, Mu Wan Shuang, the Princess Consort, Sun Leng Chan, Fengmo Shengjian, Shui Shen Zi, Little Dot, Liu Lian.

Additionally, there were two others, who turned out to be Sea Clan Warriors from the Dragon and Phoenix Continent.

One of these Sea Clan Warriors was named Wu Zhai, skilled in swordsmanship, and was said to be able to attack enemies with many swords simultaneously.

He had the ability of Three-headed Six-armed.

He was originally unknown, but recently seemed to have frequent interactions with the Tianhai Empire’s royal family, particularly getting close to the Princess Consort.

The other was called Hai Bao, hot-tempered and powerful, though he hadn’t cultivated body refining martial arts, his body was equally formidable.

In fact, during today’s selection event, he attempted to challenge Ling Xiao, but was stopped by the Princess Consort.

There was another person Ling Xiao didn’t recognize, but their aura was not inferior to the Four Heroes of the Heavenly Sea, seemingly quite strong, likely someone from the Tianhai Empire or someone closely associated with the royal family.

This person seemed to have intense hatred towards Ling Xiao, for when he saw Ling Xiao, his eyes instantly flashed with flames, and his immense anger was palpable.

Even the temperature of the entire top floor soared instantly.

”Inexplicable.”

Ling Xiao glanced at this person, unable to comprehend why he would have enmity with someone he didn’t know. He only clasped his hands and smiled at Fan Ruohai, saying, ”Young Master Fan!”

Then he nodded to Liu Lian, as a form of greeting.

Among this group, only Liu Lian had a good relationship with him, the rest were either competitors or strangers.

”Apologies, I overdid it because a dog was blocking my path. Please continue dining, I’ll just buy something and leave.”

Faced with several people’s murderous gazes, Ling Xiao seemed completely unfazed and politely clasped his hands with a smile before heading to the top floor’s counter.

He was at ease, but the Princess Consort’s face didn’t look good.

She was hosting this banquet under the order of Crown Prince Tianai Ba Tu, to reward the meritorious and attract genius martial artists.

Excluding only a few martial artists from the Tianhai Empire.

Unexpectedly, a mere bumpkin dared to directly ignore her, let alone not acknowledging her, but even called her attendant a road-blocking dog?

Simply outrageous!

Fan Ruohai just watched with a smile, always feeling that this man who claimed to be Ling Xiao bore some resemblance to the Ling Xiao of the past.

Where the resemblance lay, he couldn’t quite articulate.

However, based on his intuition, he believed he wasn’t mistaken.

So his attitude towards Ling Xiao remained very expectant and friendly.

Just like he used to treat Ling Xiao.

Would he offend Ling Xiao for the Princess Consort?

He wasn’t that foolish. After all, there was already a conflict between their Fan family and the Tianhai family, though it hadn’t fully erupted yet.

”If Brother Ling needs anything, just let me know and I’ll naturally have it delivered to your residence. No need for you to come yourself.”

Fan Ruohai said with a smile.

”Young Master Fan is too polite.”

As they say, even the most hard-handed person won’t hit a smiling face.

Even though Ling Xiao didn’t know what Fan Ruohai was actually thinking or intending.

But given the kindness shown, there was no need to respond coldly.

Nonetheless, Fan Ruohai’s appreciation of Ling Xiao did not mean everyone else felt the same.

Among those present, though some didn’t even qualify for the White Tiger Summit, they believed it wasn’t due to a lack of ability, but rather some special reasons preventing them from competing.

They admitted that Ling Xiao’s physique was indeed fearsome.

Having cultivated body refining techniques, he was hard to kill.

But in their eyes, that wasn’t significant.

No martial artist would be foolish enough to solely compete with physical strength; with inner strength, soul power, and various miraculous martial arts secret techniques available, not using them would be sheer folly.

Genuine experts faced with a martial artist like Ling Xiao have countless ways to dispatch him.

All the genius martial artists present were at least at the Tenth Level of the Yin-Yang Realm.

This fake Ling Xiao’s cultivation level was merely at the Seventh Level of the Yin-Yang Realm, giving them no reason for fear.

Although they had seen Ling Xiao defeat Prince White Horse and that black-clad woman in battle.

Almost all of them believed it was not because Ling Xiao was strong, but because those two were too foolish; if they were in their place, the results would definitely have been different.

Everyone thinks they would do better than others.
