Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Ling Yuhua agreed to prepare a small courtyard for Ling Xiao, but Ling Xiao had to agree to two conditions.

”Speak!”

Ling Xiao said.

”First, detoxify your uncle.”

”No problem!”

In any case, Ling Xiao didn’t plan to rely on the plague to poison Ling Tianxiong to death. Although the plague was potent, Ling Tianxiong would eventually be able to fight it off, just at a slower pace.

”Second, you must defeat Huang Wu and use no more than three moves.”

Ling Yuhua continued.

”Sure!”

Huang Wu was even more useless than Ling Baiye. Forget three moves, Ling Xiao could take him out in just one.

Ling Yuhua likely only wanted to test his aptitude. If his aptitude was good, they would cultivate him fully; if not, they would abandon him.

This old man was still so cold and ruthless.

After agreeing to Ling Yuhua’s two conditions, Ling Xiao immediately detoxified Ling Tianxiong.

To neutralize the plague affecting Ling Tianxiong, all it required was a single custom-made pill from Ling Xiao.

As the detoxification completed, Huang Wu had also arrived.

”Let’s begin, Huang Wu. Use all your strength. Even if you kill him, it doesn’t matter.”

Ling Yuhua said indifferently.

”As you command, Clan Leader!”

Upon hearing Ling Yuhua’s words, Huang Wu’s eyes gleamed with intense killing intent.

Earlier today, Huang Wu was scolded by Ling Xiao and later obtained a treasure from Ling Tianxiong.

Specifically designed to deal with Ling Xiao.

Thus, he was fully confident that he could kill Ling Xiao here.

In truth, the two didn’t have a deep enmity, but he just couldn’t stand this previously unknown kid suddenly acting so arrogantly.

He wanted to nip this in the bud.

”Vajra Shield!”

Huang Wu directly employed the magical treasure given to him by Ling Tianxiong.

It was a shield made of vajra, a magical treasure that, once deployed, was unbreakable by Martial Artists below the Cave Heaven Realm.

Moreover, the Vajra Shield had spikes, causing more damage to enemies the fiercer they attacked.

So he believed he stood in an unbeatable position.

Once Ling Xiao wore himself out and was covered with wounds, he would then suddenly counterattack, ensuring Ling Xiao’s death.

With the perfect plan in mind, Huang Wu beckoned to Ling Xiao with a hand motion, saying, ”Come on, you son of a drunkard, let’s see if you can break my defense before boasting about your strength.”

Ling Xiao’s lips curled into an unconcerned smile.

A terrifying aura erupted from his body.

Then, he gently tapped the ground with his foot, causing it to crack, and his silhouette shot forth explosively.

”Fool, daring to be so careless in the face of the Vajra Shield, truly courting death.”

Ling Tianxiong looked at Ling Xiao, sneering disdainfully. Initially, he was worried Ling Xiao wouldn’t dare to make a move after seeing the Vajra Shield, but now it seemed this Ling Xiao was nothing but a fool.

His worry was needless.

”The stronger your attack, the quicker you die. Hurry up and die already, daring to compare yourself to our Baiye, you truly don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth!”

”Boom!”

In the next moment, Ling Tianxiong suddenly stood up.

Because he had witnessed an unbelievable scene.

One punch!

Just one punch!

Ling Xiao not only shattered the Vajra Shield entirely but also knocked Huang Wu out cold.

Sitting there, Ling Yuhua’s eyes also brightened.

In truth, on the Xuanwu continent, every family might have Martial Artists undergoing worldly reincarnation.

For example, the Ling Family had three such Martial Artists.

The Chen Family, their equal, also had three.

But many Martial Artists undergoing worldly reincarnation advanced insufficiently because their previous cultivation was too shallow, or they lacked a Reincarnation Seed.

This represents the risk of worldly reincarnation.

Ling Xiao had never shown his strength before, leading him to regard Ling Xiao as a waste.

As a result, he’d had no concern or care for Ling Xiao.

But today, he suddenly realized that he might have been wrong; this kid was too formidable.

Twelve months, and he could easily defeat a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist. With such strength, he could definitely become a mainstay of the Ling Family.

He wasn’t afraid of Ling Xiao hating him.

As long as the Ling Family could continue to develop, even if Ling Xiao eventually killed him to take his place, he wouldn’t mind.

Because that was the kind of person Ling Yuhua was.

Clan members without aptitude or strength, just existing was a crime—that was his belief.

”Very well!”

Ling Yuhua clapped his hands and said, ”Old Black, take Ling Xiao down, give him an upgraded courtyard like Baiye’s, and equip it with maidservants and attendants. From now on, his cultivation resources will be on par with Baiye’s!”

”Father! You can’t do this, Baiye is your own grandson, and this kid is Ling Tieshou’s son. Ling Tieshou is just your adopted son, and you didn’t treat him well before. He’ll surely hold a grudge.”

Ling Tianxiong felt naturally uncomfortable hearing this and quickly shouted to Ling Yuhua.

”It’s normal for him to resent me. If he has the ability to kill me, then let him. The leader of our Ling Family has always been the strongest in the family.”

Ling Yuhua calmly glanced at Ling Tianxiong and said.

Then, he looked at Ling Xiao and said, ”You really want to know who killed your father, don’t you? As long as you become the top at the annual meeting, I’ll tell you.”

”I will investigate who killed my father myself, but I have another request.”

Ling Xiao said.

”Speak.”

”I hope that if I win the annual meeting, my father Ling Tieshou and my mother’s spirit tablets can be placed in the Ling Family’s ancestral hall.”

Ling Xiao said calmly.

”Ridiculous, are they even worthy?”

Ling Tianxiong scolded.

”I’m asking the Clan Leader, do you want to take his place?”

Ling Xiao gave Ling Tianxiong a cold look, which startled Ling Tianxiong.

He hurried to explain to Ling Yuhua.

Ling Yuhua cut him off directly, saying to Ling Xiao, ”As long as you can win the first place, not only will your parents be enshrined, but you can also become one of the Ling Family’s official heirs, with a status equal to my sons!”

”You’re quite pragmatic. Okay, it’s a deal then.”

Ling Xiao found Ling Yuhua to be quite extreme, but had to admit, such people were easy to get along with. At least there was no need to worry about being schemed against.

Turning to leave with Old Black, he moved into a newly refurbished courtyard.

It had flowers and grass, as well as rockeries and ponds, much better than the house he lived in before.

The key was that it was fully staffed with maidservants, attendants, and guards, personally arranged by the Clan Leader.

As long as he didn’t leave here, he should be safe.

”Xiao Wu, from now on, you will be the steward of this courtyard. If anyone dares disobey you, just tell me.”

Ling Xiao had great trust in Xiao Wu.

Although Xiao Wu was a bit simple, he never left their side even in their family’s toughest times, and where could he find a servant like that?

Therefore, he granted Xiao Wu the greatest authority and helped him cleanse his marrow and transform his bones, ensuring Xiao Wu made significant progress in his cultivation.

After all, Xiao Wu needed to get things done for him, and without strength, that wouldn’t do.
