Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Whoever harms his people must pay tenfold!

Whoever betrays him must die!

There’s nothing more to say. Ling Xiao has always conducted himself this way.

Those few people shrunk back at Ling Xiao’s eerie words; ultimately, they were just cowards.

”What are you afraid of? With me here, he can’t touch you!”

Ling Wansui stood with hands behind his back, mocking Ling Xiao.

He had no grudge with Ling Xiao.

But Ling Tianxiong hated Ling Xiao.

In order to gain more favor and benefits from Ling Tianxiong, he naturally wanted to show off by getting rid of Ling Xiao.

As long as he eliminated Ling Xiao, he believed Ling Tianxiong would repay him.

As for the matter of Ling Jiaojiao taking Demonsanity Powder, he naturally kept it from Ling Tianxiong.

Although Ling Tianxiong was arrogant and stubborn, even somewhat bullying the weak, he wouldn’t harm his own children.

The way he treated Ling Jiaojiao was merely because the woman wouldn’t marry him and embarrassed him in front of others.

Using the issue with Ling Xiao, he incidentally drove Ling Jiaojiao mad, which was killing two birds with one stone for him.

Today, he was sure to take care of Ling Xiao.

The family’s people all believed him, especially because he had witnesses and evidence.

The witnesses were those kidnappers.

The evidence was a jade pendant that Ling Xiao dropped at the scene.

Of course, that jade pendant was stolen by one of Ling Xiao’s servants on his orders and planted there.

The entire plan was simple, with many loopholes, yet within the Ling Family, it seemed flawless.

Because no one would speak for Ling Xiao.

As long as he killed Ling Xiao using this excuse, everything would end.

The family wouldn’t even investigate but would just place all blame on Ling Xiao.

Brilliant!

Simply ingenious!

The more he thought about it, the cleverer he felt; these years training in the Outer Sect of Xuan She Demon Sect hadn’t been in vain.

Not only had his cultivation level improved, his cunning in dealing with matters had sharpened.

”Can you stop me if I intend to kill them?”

Ling Xiao sneered coldly, suddenly thrusting his longsword forward.

”You dare!”

Ling Wansui waved his fists, blocking the attack: ”No one can do anything to those I, Ling Wansui, wish to protect.”

”Ah—!”

Just as he finished speaking, someone behind him screamed, dying gruesomely.

Ling Xiao’s sword was too fast!

Even though his cultivation level was higher than Ling Xiao’s, he couldn’t block the terrifying sword light.

This scene truly shocked Ling Wansui.

Earlier at the Martial Hall entrance, Ling Xiao couldn’t even slightly resist in front of him. Yet today, Ling Xiao could kill those he intended to protect right before his eyes.

”Ah—!”

Another scream followed.

Wherever the sword beam pointed, blood splattered, heads rolled.

In Ling Xiao’s eyes, there was only killing intent, no mercy whatsoever.

Betrayers must die; this was his principle!

Especially these people, who shamelessly ridiculed and mocked him after siding with Ling Wansui.

If he didn’t kill them all, how could he establish himself in the Mysterious World in the future?

”Kill!”

Another sword stroke; blood drifted with it.

Ling Wansui tried to stop him but had no means.

Though his cultivation level was higher than Ling Xiao’s, he was slower each time.

He could only watch helplessly as the last of the maids and servants died, leaving only one.

Ling Xiao purposefully left one alive, not because he couldn’t kill but because he chose not to.

”Ling Xiao, please spare me! I was the one who stole your jade pendant for the kidnappers.”

Ling Xiao had known this already and kept him alive just to hear these words.

”Tell the truth; it’s good enough.”

Ling Xiao sneered coldly, turning back to protect Xiao Wu, who was pretending to be dead on the ground, fearing someone might use him to threaten Ling Xiao.

Yet that young servant couldn’t live in the end.

Although Ling Xiao didn’t kill him, Ling Wansui did with a slap.

This slap was both out of anger and because the servant blurted out the truth.

”Young Master Wansui, did you hear? My jade pendant was given to the kidnappers by him; your evidence is purely a joke.”

Ling Xiao coldly glanced at Ling Wansui, then towards the so-called witness, one of the kidnappers.

Presumably, the others were killed off by Ling Wansui to cover his tracks, leaving just this one.

”Are you sure it was me who gave Ling Jiaojiao the Demonsanity Powder?”

As he spoke, his right Three-leaf Demon Pupil opened, injecting terrifying Soul Capturing power into the kidnapper’s Soul Sea.

”No! It wasn’t you! I don’t know who it was. Ling Wansui told me to frame you, claiming you made Ling Jiaojiao take it.”

The kidnapper’s eyes went blank momentarily, confessing the whole truth.

It appeared Ling Wansui was quite cautious, not letting anyone know about giving Ling Jiaojiao the Demonsanity Powder.

So the kidnapper revealed Ling Wansui’s ploy against Ling Xiao but not who actually used the powder on her.

”Buzz!”

The scene instantly erupted.

Before coming here, all of the evidence Ling Wansui had presented turned out to be false.

The physical evidence was fake, and the witness testimony too.

Was Ling Xiao then, innocent?

The crowd began to talk among themselves.

”Ling Wansui seems too excessive. No matter what, Ling Xiao is still part of our Ling Family; doing this is despicable.”

”What’s despicable about it? Perhaps Ling Xiao bribed everyone, and that kidnapper was originally his too, naturally exonerating him.”

While some believed Ling Wansui went too far, others still thought it was all a conspiracy by Ling Xiao.

But their words were mostly futile.

If Ling Wansui could kill Ling Xiao, then the dispute would end.

”Drunken fool, you actually dare to slander me! Fine, truly fine! You think killing those I was protecting makes you invincible under Heaven today? I’ll kill you today and show you.

No matter how you struggle, you’ll always be a fool who chose the wrong path!

You really followed others into worldly reincarnation? If you truly were in the Reincarnation Realm, how mighty you’d be now.”

Ling Wansui had already steeled his heart to kill.

Because he needed to kill Ling Xiao, otherwise many things couldn’t be explained.

Only if Ling Xiao dies, fade without evidence, will he be safe.

”I don’t see what’s wrong with entering worldly reincarnation; rather, those unwilling to do so are cowardly and laughable. They’re destined to remain only as Reincarnation Realm Martial Artists, never to become Human Immortals!”

Ling Xiao faced Ling Wansui, his iron sword wound with Sword Intent.

If Ling Wansui wanted to kill him, he naturally wouldn’t hold back.

”Hahaha, you want to become a Human Immortal? Today, I’ll make you die, severing that ambition.”

Ling Wansui laughed loudly; he enjoyed killing martial artists who had entered worldly reincarnation because it gave him a sense of accomplishment.

Just imagine, a Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artist killing a former Reincarnation Realm Martial Artist—how satisfying!

Though it was vanity, Ling Wansui always thought it was a nice feeling.
