Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 735: Chapter 735: Stupid Ways to Die_1

Peacock Feather·A Blaze of Color!

Suddenly, myriad ethereal hands emerged from behind Tang Jiu, and then the strange peacock feather in his hand spread out, shooting a burst of multicolored light towards Ling Xiao.

The Peacock Feather was one of the Tang Sect’s top ten hidden weapons, possessing extremely terrifying power. If paired with the right martial skills and True Essence, it would be unstoppable.

”Nine Channels Air Sword·Rising Sun Sword Qi!”

Ling Xiao did not draw his sword, but simply danced his hands, a sun rising above his head, as countless golden sword lights broke through the air.

The sharp and blinding sword qi elicited gasps of amazement from the onlookers.

Pop pop pop pop pop pop pop...

The sounds of True Essence colliding rang out continuously.

For every streak of light from the Peacock Feather, there was a corresponding streak of Ling Xiao’s sword qi, and amazingly, neither was overpowering the other.

They collided in the sky and then exploded.

In the end, both dissipated into nothingness.

”This guy actually broke Tang Jiu’s Peacock Feather? What’s going on? Could it be that he’s not just bragging, but is actually this strong?”

”Bragging? I’ve come to know a bit about this Ling Xiao recently. It’s said that with his own strength, he almost took on all of the Inner Sect Disciples of the Sword King Sect!”

”He’s not an easy target!”

”Exactly, and have you noticed? Those air swords of his contain traces of Destruction Will. If that Destruction Will were a bit stronger, Tang Jiu would have been at a disadvantage just now.”

”And that blow just now was more than twenty percent of a Half-step Celestial’s strength, he must have concealed his real cultivation level!”

”When did the Moon Hua Sect produce such a monster!”

Even those self-proclaimed extraordinary participants from the previous Martial Arts Festival were shocked by Ling Xiao’s performance.

Tang Jiu’s expression became even more fierce, like an evil spirit from hell.

The stronger Ling Xiao, the more Tang Jiu wanted him dead.

Such a person must not be allowed to live; otherwise, he would become a bigger trouble in the future.

So he must be killed!

Luckily for him, he was stronger than Ling Xiao, so there was still a chance.

”Ling Xiao, you’ve concealed your strength well! Keeping you alive would only be a curse, so today you must die!”

Tang Jiu let out a cold cry, and the light from the peacock feather in his hand shone even brighter.

He only used seventy percent of his strength before, believing he could easily kill Ling Xiao, but now he prepared to unleash ninety percent of his strength, unconvinced that he couldn’t kill his opponent.

The shimmering Peacock Feather created a tempest from nowhere, raising dust and a sharp atmosphere that scared many Martial Artists into hurrying away from Tang Jiu’s vicinity.

Even the Undying Soul perched far away upon the throne cast a glance in their direction.

The Undying Soul seemed not to initiate an attack unless the Martial Artists entered a certain range, as if it were guarding something.

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, and the Rainfall Sword and Purple Lightning Sword appeared in his hands at the same time.

In his left hand, the electric light flickered, with Destruction Will rising continuously.

In his right hand, red light swirled, and Slaughter Will quickly intensified.

To deal with Tang Jiu, he planned to finish it in one strike to avoid the trouble of a prolonged fight.

”Stop, both of you!”

Suddenly, Yan Lie Huo and Ya Qian Xue appeared in the middle and nearly simultaneously shouted.

Yan Lie Huo, ranked fifty-onest, was a disciple of the Mysterious Fire Sect, which ranked third among the Twelve Sects.

Ya Qian Xue, ranked fifty-fifth, was a disciple of the Heavenly King Sect, which ranked first among the Twelve Sects.

The interference of these two attracted everyone’s attention.

”What do you mean?”

Tang Jiu asked coldly.

He was somewhat wary of these two, but that was all, he was not yet afraid of them.

However, he had to consider that if he continued to attack, it might turn into a three-on-one situation.

”Now is not the time for internal strife,” he said. ”You should be clear in your mind that even if we want to kill Ling Xiao, it’s not something that can be resolved in a moment, so let’s deal with the Undying Soul first.”

Ya Qian Xue explained.

”That’s right, Brother Tang, you should know what’s more important, right? Once the Undying Soul is taken care of, if you wish to kill Ling Xiao, we will certainly not stop you.”

Yan Lie Huo also spoke up to persuade.

”Tang Jiu, listen to them, I’ll join forces with you in a moment to deal with that kid.”

Li Youdao, although bloodthirsty, seemed to have a brain when it really mattered.

Tang Jiu’s aura had not subsided, but he found their words quite reasonable. Teaming up with Li Youdao later, defeating Ling Xiao would be a piece of cake.

And now, Ya Qian Xue had a clear view. Even if he wanted to kill Ling Xiao, he would probably end up hurting the enemy a thousand and damaging himself eight hundred—it wouldn’t be worth the loss.

”Fine, I’ll give you face. I’ll deal with him later!”

Having said this, Tang Jiu slowly retracted his True Essence.

However, at that moment, suddenly two beams of sword light burst forth.

”How dare you!”

”Stop!”

Yan Lie Huo and Ya Qian Xue both wanted to intervene, but it was futile.

The two beams of sword light were too fast!

Too terrifying!

In the blink of an eye, Tang Jiu’s body was cleaved into four parts, and blood spilled everywhere.

”You wouldn’t believe me if I called you an idiot, but do you think I’m a dead fish on a chopping board? Easy to kill if you want, and stop if you don’t?”

Ling Xiao held two swords, blood still dripping from the blades.

He coldly looked at Tang Jiu, who was now completely dead, and said, ”From the moment you attacked me, you should have known there was no possibility of reconciliation between us. You dared to retract your True Essence in the midst of battle—who else but you should die?”

Everyone was stunned.

They even felt confused.

What was this?

Tang Jiu wanted to kill Ling Xiao but ended up being killed by Ling Xiao first?

This Ling Xiao truly did not suffer any losses, just like the rumors said.

”Ling Xiao, you’re courting death!”

Ya Qian Xue was so angry he was nearly spitting blood, and Yan Lie Huo was also very annoyed.

”You’re the ones courting death!”

Ling Xiao said indifferently, ”Hasn’t anyone told you not to meddle carelessly when others are engaged in a life-or-death battle?”

”You!”

Ya Qian Xue truly couldn’t stand it anymore; he, a prominent Inner Sect disciple of the Heavenly King Sect, with strength almost at Half-step Celestial, had his words treated as nothing, and that feeling of being stifled was unbearable.

”What about me? Are all you people from Heavenly King Sect so arrogant? The Holy Son is like that, and so are you?”

Ling Xiao said disdainfully.

In fact, among all the people there, Ya Qian Xue was the one he looked down upon the most.

This person was skilled in Soul Secret Techniques, but Ling Xiao could feel that compared to his own, Ya Qian Xue’s Soul Secret Techniques were far inferior. He could eliminate Ya Qian Xue in a moment’s notice.

”Detestable!”

Just as Ya Qian Xue was about to make a move, he was stopped by Yan Lie Huo.

”This kid has some demonic tricks, let’s not rush to action!”

Yan Lie Huo looked at Ling Xiao and said coldly, ”By killing Tang Jiu, you have deprived us of a powerful combatant. Without resolving the Undying Soul, none of us can enter. What do you have to say about that?”

This guy really knew how to guilt-trip someone, making Ling Xiao the target of everyone in an instant.

However, Ling Xiao smiled faintly and said, ”Do people from the Mysterious Fire Sect enjoy giving tall hats like this? So be it, then. You all step aside, I’ll handle the Undying Soul!

As for the benefits, well, I’m quite generous; everyone will have a share!”
