Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Heiye Wuxing suddenly felt that he might have been talking a bit too much.

Considering someone as clever as Ling Xiao, how could he not understand that stepping into the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain is only the beginning?

He left.

Lin Yang, Qing Luan Hua, Lin Ruoxian, and others also left.

They knew that, at this moment, the time should be left for Ling Xiao himself.

After all, he was about to go to the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, and he needed some quiet time to contemplate future arrangements.

After they left, Ling Xiao took out the Storage Rings from the Chief of Purple Immortal Mountain and those he killed in the back mountain.

A total of more than twenty Storage Rings brought together nearly two million low-grade Spirit Stones.

This Chief of Purple Immortal Mountain was not as wealthy as Chi Ling’er and Sha Mo Yun.

However, among this guy’s Storage Rings, there was a secret manual for the Purple Qi Eastward Sword.

This Purple Qi Eastward Sword Technique has only two moves—

One Sword Returns to the West!

One Sword Destruction!

Yet, it is the strongest Jade Level High-Grade Martial Technique of Purple Immortal Mountain.

Just what Ling Xiao needed, lacking a Jade Level High-Grade Martial Technique, it can be learned temporarily until a better option comes along.

As for the Falling Star Sword Art, it can still be used for now, since training in Jade Level High-Grade Martial Techniques is difficult and consuming; in ordinary combat, Mid-Tier Jade Martial Technique is more suitable.

Anyway, there is still some time before heading to the Dark Clan, Ling Xiao plans to study the Purple Qi Eastward Sword first.

The experience of cultivating Jade High-level Secret Technique makes practicing this Jade Level High-Grade Martial Technique not too difficult.

Within half an hour, he had trained the first move, ”One Sword Returns to the West,” to a Small Success level.

At this point, the time was about right.

He got up, ready to head to the Dark Clan.

Outside, Qing Luan Hua and Lin Yang were already waiting.

Heiye Wuxing, including Lin Ruoxian, were also standing there, apparently intending to escort them further.

”Ling Xiao, do you know why Heiye Wuguang previously wanted you to acknowledge me as your godfather?”

Heiye Wuxing suddenly asked.

”I don’t know.”

Ling Xiao was indeed puzzled; he couldn’t understand why Heiye Wuxing suddenly brought this up, but intuitively, there seemed to be an issue.

”Let me tell you, the Dark Clan is a family; every disciple who steps into the Dark Clan must choose someone to become their godfather or godmother, or else they will always be excluded from the Inner Clan.

Even if they enter the Dark Clan, they will ultimately be considered outsiders only.”

Heiye Wuxing sighed and said, ”It’s the same with the Eight Great Families. Do you think Sha Diao and Sha Hai are Sha Lin’s biological sons?

They are not.

Sha Hai is indeed biological, but Sha Diao is only a foster son, and he didn’t originally have the surname Sha either.

You should understand that wanting to worship someone from the Inner Clan as a godfather or godmother is not a simple thing.

Sha Mo Yun does not have this privilege, so even though he is a member of the Desert Clan, he is still only an outsider.

In front of Sha Diao and Sha Hai, he will always be just a servant.”

Hearing these words, Ling Xiao frowned.

He detests such coercive practices the most.

”I know you don’t like this approach, but no one will force you and the number of people wanting to recognize Heiye Wuguang as their godfather is overwhelming.

Yet he has his eyes fixed on you alone.

Qing Luan Hua and Lin Yang do not have such a qualification.

If you choose him as a godfather, you will have access to all the resources available to the Inner Clan.

You would even have the right to inherit from the Eight Great Families.

Heiye Wuguang would also exert all his power to protect you, so I advise you not to resist, because doing so bears no disadvantage to you, only benefits.”

Heiye Wuxing saw Ling Xiao’s expression and knew he was reluctant, so he clarified this point.

”Whoa, boss, you’ve made it! With such a master shielding you, no one would dare bully you in the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain,” Lin Yang said enviously.

”I, Ling Xiao, am not invincible and do need protection, but my actions always depend on my own willingness; protection gained by recognizing someone as father or mother, I have no desire for.”

Ling Xiao’s stance was resolute.

Perhaps for others, it’s nothing, merely agreeing to have someone as a godfather; it doesn’t come at a loss.

But Ling Xiao is different.

He is the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire, the one destined to unify the Mysterious World.

Each of his decisions signifies the authority of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire.

He truly doesn’t crave this kind of protection.

Moreover, who is Ling Xiao?

How does someone like Heiye Wuguang qualify as his godfather?

Even Heiye Wuxing he wouldn’t recognize, let alone Heiye Wuguang.

Heiye Wuxing said very earnestly, ”Ling Xiao, calm down, there is no need to be so impulsive.

Know that, while you might see it as an insult, Lin Yang and Qing Luan Hua wish they could experience such an insult.

Becoming Heiye Wuguang’s foster son is a dream for not only the Lower Eight Immortals Mountain disciples, but also those from the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain!

Be aware, my brother, yes, Heiye Wuguang, has a detached personality, indifferent to most things.

But he will fight to protect what is his.

If you become his foster son, he will definitely exert all efforts to protect you.

This is absolutely to your benefit, don’t be unaware of your fortune.”

”Then what? Just because he’s strong, I should acknowledge him as father? Does that mean whenever I meet a formidable expert, I must call them Dad?

Mountain Master, I recall a story.

In another world, there was an era called the Three Kingdoms, and during that time, there was a strong martial artist named Lu Bu.

Initially, he recognized a man named Ding Yuan as father, but later discovered another named Dong Zhuo was stronger.

So he killed Ding Yuan, recognized Dong Zhuo as father.

Later, turned against Dong Zhuo over a woman, killed Dong Zhuo, then became sworn brothers with a man named Liu Bei.

Thus, he was also called a Three Surnames Household Slave!

He was strong, but his character was deplorable to the extreme.

Mountain Master, do you really wish for me to become such a person?”

”Sigh, child, why are you so stubborn? You must understand, once you recognize Heiye Wuguang as a godfather, you can walk arrogantly within the Dark Clan, who dares to bully you?

Moreover, you can better protect your friends and family.”

Heiye Wuxing sighed, making a final effort to persuade Ling Xiao.

”No need to say more.”

Ling Xiao waved his hand and said, ”I, Ling Xiao, can protect my family and friends without acknowledging anyone as father.

Today, I might as well declare it here—even as an outsider disciple of the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, I can still make everyone look at me anew!

Mountain Master, I hope our relationship doesn’t become strained over this, let it rest.”

Listening to Ling Xiao’s words, not only did Heiye Wuxing not feel any anger, but he suddenly felt he had indeed underestimated Ling Xiao.

A person who always depends on others can never achieve greatness.

Even if they become a king, they would only be a puppet king.

Manipulated, akin to a walking corpse.
