Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

”Stop all of you!”

Ling Tianxiong hurriedly shouted.

In just a moment, seven or eight of his servants had already died. These were his most loyal henchmen.

”Kid, what exactly did you do?”

Ling Tianxiong roared in anger.

”How unfortunate for you, Ling Tianxiong. Before I entered the world of reincarnation, I was just playing with array formations. I merely set up a few formations.”

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

”An array formation!”

Ling Tianxiong furrowed his brows, ”Do you really think you can set up such powerful formations?”

He seemed unconvinced and jumped directly off his horse, heading towards Ling Tieshou’s tomb.

However, just four or five steps away from the tomb, his expression suddenly changed.

Perhaps because his cultivation level was higher than those servants, he could clearly feel his inner strength being continuously extracted by something, and it felt very uncomfortable.

”Poison!”

Ling Tianxiong quickly withdrew and operated his energy to expel the poison.

”It’s not just a simple poison but a plague. Ling Tianxiong, take your time; I’m heading back.”

Ling Xiao smirked coldly. After all, these people had no ability to break the formation. Whether he was there or not, it was the same.

Using the Lightweight Body Technique, he dashed into the dense forest and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

In a place without people, he could fully use the Rapid Light Movement, which was much faster than a carriage.

When he returned to his dwelling, it was still early.

He didn’t live in the Ling Family Courtyard, primarily because he wasn’t qualified. After all, Ling Tieshou was just an unpromising adopted son, and Elder Ling had long let him fend for himself.

Secondly, they found it too troublesome.

Anyway, Ling Xiao was already earning money by making alchemy pills, so he wasn’t worried about not being able to buy a house.

Back in his room, lying on his bed, staring at the ceiling, Ling Xiao pondered his future plans.

If he wanted to quickly restore his cultivation to the Reincarnation Realm, he would need to acquire more resources.

Although he looked down on the current Ling Family, their resources in Yuhua Town were genuinely strong.

This Ling Family must be under his control; only then could he cultivate faster and better avenge his father.

”Who’s there?”

While pondering these matters, a slight footstep suddenly came from outside, and Ling Xiao suddenly looked toward the window.

”Swish! Swish!”

Two cold flashes shot in from outside the window.

Ling Xiao spread his body movement technique and casually deflected the cold flashes while pouncing out.

Outside the door, two shadows lunged at him, each holding a gleaming blade.

”Your cultivation is not bad, but it’s still not enough to kill your young master!”

These two assassins were martial artists of the Heavenly Man Realm, having reached about the Sixth Layer of the Heavenly Man Realm.

But so what? Ling Xiao was a First Turn Heavenly Realm martial artist, far more powerful than them.

Without using any weapon, Ling Xiao punched out directly, the power of the Imperial Heaven and Earth bursting from his fist, clashing with one of the assassins’ blades, sending it back.

”Pfft!”

One of the men in black was stabbed to death on the spot.

The other one, seeing the dire situation, turned to flee.

But how could Ling Xiao give him the chance to escape?

In the pitch-black night, it was the best time for the Son of Shadow’s activity.

After all, it was nighttime, so exposing a bit of the Mystery of the Shadow was no big deal.

The sinister Son of Shadow stretched out a claw from the darkness, pinning the man directly to the ground.

”Speak! Who sent you?”

Ling Xiao stepped on him, coldly asked.

”Hahaha, I won’t tell you. If you kill us today, stronger ones will come for you tomorrow. You’re doomed!”

The assassin’s will was resilient. After saying this, he bit down on a poison capsule in his tooth and died instantly.

”I wonder if these people killed my father, Ling Tieshou. What do they want from me?”

Ling Xiao released his foot, waved his hand, and a pitch-black flame burned the two corpses to ashes.

”It seems I can’t stay here any longer. The assassin spoke the truth; maybe I can handle Heavenly Realm martial artists, but if I encounter Cave Heaven Realm martial artists, it’ll be a problem.”

Ling Xiao returned to his room, quickly packed his things, and prepared to return to the Ling Family.

Although his father was dead, he was still a part of the Ling Family. As long as he showed some talent, the high-ups would give him a chance to move in.

Thinking back, Elder Ling accepted his father, Ling Tieshou, because of his potential.

Today’s assassins, in Ling Xiao’s opinion, couldn’t be the work of the Ling Family.

If the Ling Family wanted to kill him, they would do it openly, as their shamelessness knew no bounds.

If Ling Tianxiong or Ling Baiye wanted to kill him, they would have done it in the Ling Family directly. Hiring assassins was a total waste of money.

And the two assassins were strangers to him, ones he had never seen in the Ling Family.

Although it was just speculation, Ling Xiao believed that these two assassins came from outside.

He estimated that his father’s death was closely related to these people.

”Just wait, I will drag you all out eventually!”

Looking around at the house he’d lived in for a few months, Ling Xiao felt a bit reluctant. Even though he lived here without others’ care, he didn’t have to suffer grievances, and it was actually quite good.

Returning to the Ling Family might bring more troubles.

But what would Ling Xiao fear? He had conquered the Heavenly Dragon, Divine Phoenix, and White Tiger Continents; would he shrink back from the Ling Family of Feather Transformation Town?

Turning around, Ling Xiao hurriedly left for the Ling Family.

The guards had been changed, and their attitude towards him was noticeably less arrogant than before.

One’s status and face earned through strength.

That was what even the servants thought.

He walked straight into the Ling Family Courtyard, heading towards Elder Ling’s central courtyard.

The Ling Family Courtyard was divided into five courtyards: east, west, south, north, and central, similar to the structure of the Xuanwu Continent.

The central courtyard was where the clan leader, Elder Ling, resided.

Ling Xiao had visited here before, so he was quite familiar with the way.

As he walked into Elder Ling’s residence, he was stopped by someone again.

But this time, a hoarse voice came from inside the room.

”Let him in.”

The voice belonged to the Ling Family Clan Leader, Ling Yuhua.

As Ling Xiao stepped inside the room, he found not only Ling Yuhua but also Ling Tianxiong, who had been poisoned by the plague.

He sneered and looked at Ling Yuhua, ”Elder, give me a house.”

”A house?”

”Precisely. I want a house similar to the one Ling Baiye has, so I can focus on my cultivation.”

Ling Xiao directly got to the point.

”Do you think you’re worthy of being compared to Baiye?”

Ling Tianxiong mocked.

”You should worry about the plague poison in your system; it’s not easy to cure.”

Ling Xiao gave Ling Tianxiong a cold glance and then turned to Ling Yuhua, saying, ”If that trash Ling Baiye can have his own courtyard, then I, ten times stronger, should be able to as well.”

Ling Yuhua looked at Ling Xiao and said indifferently, ”I can give you a courtyard and even provide you with maids and servants, but you must agree to two conditions of mine.”
