Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1335: Chapter 1335: Sensation Throughout the City

”This person probably didn’t go to the scene, right?”

The storyteller chuckled and said.

”Indeed I didn’t go, but what’s the point anyway?”

That person replied.

”You’re absolutely wrong about that. Not going to the wedding today is the greatest loss for you lot. Just about half an hour ago, something earth-shattering took place at that wedding. Anyone who went would surely never forget the gallant presence of that young hero!”

The storyteller stroked his beard, deliberately picked up his teacup, and took a sip, leaving everyone in suspense.

”The young hero you’re talking about—is he the Mingxing Crown Prince?”

”Or maybe someone caused trouble and then got repelled by Mingxing Crown Prince?”

”Yeah, if it weren’t for something like that, no matter how grand that wedding was, it’d still only be a banquet, nothing like the thrilling event you described!”

The people below the stage chimed in here and there, all feeling that the storyteller was exaggerating, turning a fairly ordinary event into something like heaven collapsing and earth splitting.

”Let’s go. The storyteller is spouting nonsense again; what’s the point?”

Medicine King Sun Ran flicked his sleeves, feeling bored, and moved to leave.

But the storyteller’s next words froze Sun Ran and the other three in their tracks.

”That’s why you didn’t go—you don’t know what happened. The young hero I’m talking about isn’t that disgraceful Ji Mingxing but the Heavenly Emperor Ling Xiao!”

The storyteller said with pride, ”You’d never guess. In less than an hour, Ji Mingxing was killed, the Great Sun World Lord was killed, over a thousand Divine Guards were killed, and even Harry Peng, Prince of Phoenix, was killed, along with over a hundred outstanding young talents from Phoenix God College!”

What!

Hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded.

This was indeed something earth-shattering, a true heaven collapse and earth split.

”Could it be that there was an invasion by an external enemy, leading to all those deaths? Did Ling Xiao repel the enemy?”

Someone asked.

”Hey, can you stop beating around the bush? Just tell us what happened already!”

The people below the stage grew anxious and eager.

”But I seem to be a bit short on wine money these days. Would everyone mind sparing a little?”

The storyteller chuckled.

”Why didn’t you say so before!”

Among the martial artists present, who would lack Spirit Stones? In just a moment, the storyteller’s box was filled.

At that point, the storyteller closed the box, grinning as he said, ”All of your guesses are wrong. There was no invasion by external enemies in the Imperial Capital today.

Our grand Imperial Capital isn’t so easily infiltrated.”

”Then what’s the story? Who could kill so many people at once? Don’t tell me it was some Cave Heaven Realm expert who lost their mind?”

Questions poured in.

Fengming Xiao, Medicine King Sun Ran, and Ji Luoyu all seemed intrigued.

”As I’ve mentioned earlier, today’s young hero is definitely Ling Xiao—the unparalleled champion who wiped out the True Demon Empire, founded the Heavenly Dynasty Empire, captured Jiumo Zhiyan alive, and killed Timmerman Muto!”

The storyteller chuckled as he spoke.

”You’re not seriously telling us that Ling Xiao killed all of those people, right?”

Fengming Xiao frowned and asked.

”The lady hero guessed right. Aside from the Great Sun World Lord, the others were indeed killed by Ling Xiao.”

The storyteller nodded.

”Impossible! With his cultivation level, how could he kill so many people? The Mingxing Crown Prince, the Prince of Phoenix—aren’t they both more powerful than him?”

Fengming Xiao exclaimed sharply.

”Lady hero, the information you have is outdated. Ling Xiao was indeed a martial artist at the Nine Heavy Heaven level half a year ago. But today, by my judgment, he’s likely already a Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artist.”

The storyteller replied with a grin.

”Are you certain?”

”That’s hard to say definitively, but I personally witnessed Ling Xiao kill Ji Mingxing and Harry Peng. You wouldn’t believe it—over a thousand Righteous Divine Guards came, led by their Chief Qian, a First Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artist, yet none could even approach Ling Xiao; they were all slaughtered.”

The storyteller boasted jubilantly.

”Scoundrel! Ling Xiao, that wicked villain!”

Fengming Xiao cursed.

”Lady hero, you misjudge him. You don’t know—the disgraceful Ji Mingxing falsely accused his savior, stripped her of her cultivation, and nearly killed her.”

”That person was Ji Mingkong, wasn’t it?”

”Yes, Ji Mingkong. She happens to be a friend of Ling Xiao. Can you imagine Ling Xiao arriving at the Imperial Capital without standing up for her?”

”The greatest disgrace was actually that Great Sun World Lord, who used illusion techniques to force Fengming Lian to marry his despicable disciple.”

”Is that true?”

Someone doubted the claim.

”Absolutely true. The Hidden Mountain Reserve Monarch has already investigated this thoroughly. Princess Lian’er testified as well—it can’t be wrong.”

The storyteller added, ”Later, the Righteous Divine Guards came to kill Ling Xiao, but he flew into a rage and wiped them out as well. It must be said, Ling Xiao is truly audacious; he gives no face even to the Emperor.”

Then the storyteller recounted the detailed events vividly.

He was, after all, a professional storyteller, well-versed in the art of embellishment. Naturally, some exaggerations crept in.

Listening to it was utterly thrilling, blood-boiling, and sensational.

At that moment, the audience seemed to see the fearless, domineering, and arrogant young martial artist. Single-handedly, with just a sword, he fought his way out of an encirclement.

Although many didn’t like arrogant individuals, every martial artist secretly wished they could be that domineering.

However, such arrogance required the backing of strength.

Ling Xiao had grown strong to such an extent.

”This Ling Xiao must die!”

Fengming Xiao’s eyes turned cold, as icy as a devil’s.

She absolutely couldn’t tolerate someone abducting her daughter, killing her favored future son-in-law, and living peacefully afterward!

Absolutely not!

Boom!

Just at that moment, a surge of powerful energy came from the sky.

Both Fengming Xiao and Medicine King Sun Ran’s expressions changed drastically.

”Who’s fighting over there, causing such commotion?”

Sun Ran asked.

”It’s likely the Ancestor making a move. As for the other person, I’m not sure.”

Fengming Xiao clenched her teeth.

She speculated that the other person was most likely Her Highness Moon Lady, the rumored protector behind Ling Xiao.

From this clash, she could feel her Ancestor was at a disadvantage. While the loss wasn’t significant yet, prolonged fighting might lead to defeat for the Ancestor.

Damn it! How did Ling Xiao gain the support of such a powerful guardian? No wonder he’s so arrogant.

Clearly, targeting Ling Xiao openly was no longer an option. She’d have to scheme in secret to eliminate him!

And it wasn’t just Fengming Xiao with these intentions.

The Peacock Clan, Roc Clan, Righteous Qi Alliance, and the Emperor’s faction all shared the same plans.

Harry Peng, Prince of Phoenix, dead!

Mingxing Crown Prince, dead!

Peacock Princess, crippled!

Over a thousand Righteous Divine Guards, slain!

All of this was Ling Xiao’s doing. How could they let someone like him continue to live?

They would never allow it!
