Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1348: Chapter 1351 I Am the Villain

At this moment, Ling Xiao didn’t bother to comment on whether the sneak attacker was shameless or despicable; he could feel that although the opponent did not have weapons, that hand was even sharper than any Divine Artifact.

Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists are indeed not too weak.

The hand had already pierced through his Light and Shadow Battle Armor, just a fraction away from completely penetrating his body.

His body’s defense was immensely strong, but clearly, the opponent’s attack was stronger.

Fifth Mystery of Shadow—Shadow Body!

In that instant, Ling Xiao’s body became ethereal, transforming into a complete shadow.

Having comprehended the Light and Shadow Mystique to the tenth step, its development was quite comprehensive. Though Shadow Body had no offensive power, it was undoubtedly an excellent life-saving technique at critical moments.

”Damn it!”

The assailant, failing in one strike and realizing trouble, turned to leave.

Ling Xiao, however, would not let him leave like that.

A shadow extended from the ground, instantly tangling around the opponent’s legs, and the Son of Light arrived in a flash.

The Son of Light and Son of Shadow joined forces, managing to control this person.

Upon escaping, Ling Xiao joyfully discovered that the hazy state had cracked open a gap, showing signs of complete liberation.

He decided not to waste any more time.

Tai Chi Eye turning.

The Eye of Burning Heaven!

The blazing fire burned the heavens, red flames spread across the mountain and plain, and the condemned wailed and wept in the flames, releasing a burnt stench.

Feng Yanran and the Imperial Bodyguards of Feng Yingshan trembled all over as they watched.

Ling Xiao’s actions were certainly demonic.

Directly burning to death tens of thousands of condemned; it’s truly terrifying.

But they could understand Ling Xiao.

Surrounded and attacked by these people, if he didn’t do this, similar incidents would likely happen a second or third time.

The poisonous snake saw the situation was bad, so it disappeared into darkness, preparing to escape.

An assassin doesn’t truly want to die; they only realize they can’t complete the task at the last moment.

Unfortunately, he wanted to leave, but Ling Xiao wouldn’t let him.

A hand forcibly dragged that poisonous snake out of the Ye Yu.

”How did you find me?”

The poisonous snake couldn’t believe, even in his dreams, that his domain escape technique couldn’t evade Ling Xiao’s eyes.

”Fool, your every move has always been under my surveillance, otherwise how do you think I so easily blocked your attacks.”

Ling Xiao contemptuously glanced at this assassin and coldly asked, ”Tell me who instructed you, and I can give you a quick death, otherwise wait to be burned alive.”

Since the Dark Divine Temple took action, someone must have hired these assassins.

After all, he had no grudges with the Dark Divine Temple.

Ling Xiao wouldn’t wrong a good person, but he definitely wouldn’t let go of anyone attempting to kill him.

So he had to know the answer.

Probably the one who hired these assassins never dreamed that such a powerful assassination lineup failed not only to kill Ling Xiao but even couldn’t seriously wound him.

The strength of Ling Xiao, many people hadn’t anticipated.

Even Moon Lady, closest to Ling Xiao, was very surprised.

Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists couldn’t withstand even one move under Ling Xiao’s hands.

How powerful must one be?

The poisonous snake coldly smiled, ”None of us in the Dark Divine Temple are cowards; kill if you must, no need for nonsense, we’re absolutely not going to expose our client’s information.”

”Is that so?”

Ling Xiao grinned, revealing a sinister smile.

”I believe after tonight, you’ll know what kind of person I am. I never rest until I kill my foes; you can choose not to speak, but tomorrow I’ll bring people to destroy your Five Poison Hall Phoenix Branch.

Of course, you might not care about this, but you should have family, right? Even if not family, you should have a beloved woman?

I’ll investigate and make sure to take great care of them.”

”You beast!”

The poisonous snake was terrified.

His once calm expression became incredibly angry and panic-stricken.

”Precisely, I’m a beast, but you people forced me into it. If you reveal the one behind it, then I won’t touch your family or woman, Ling Xiao’s promises always hold.”

At this moment, Ling Xiao looked exceptionally evil, like the villain from tales told in the Jianghu.

That’s because Ling Xiao knew—evil people will be dealt with by evil people!

If he were too kind, this guy definitely wouldn’t cooperate.

”I’ll talk!”

An assassin could disregard his own life, but deep down, he certainly held cherished things, and Ling Xiao grasped the assassin’s weakness.

It’s just that simple.

”Speak, who exactly instigated you?”

Ling Xiao directly let go, allowing the assassin to speak freely.

Yet the assassin dared not flee.

Because he knew that Ling Xiao dared to let him go, showing he was confident enough to restrain him instantly.

Now every move he made might tie to his softest spot inside.

The assassin sighed deeply, his body completely relaxing.

A dying man’s words are virtuous.

Even though he was an assassin guilty of many sins.

”I truly don’t know who specifically sent us, but I know a young man was involved.”

Putting aside the so-called professional integrity, the assassin found it much easier to speak.

”Who is that young man?”

Ling Xiao knew the assassin was telling the truth.

Usually, in hired killing affairs, cunning old foxes wouldn’t easily reveal themselves because if the assassination failed, they’d risk revenge.

Only overly arrogant youngsters might overlook such danger, thereby exposing their identity.

”Jia Tianfeng of the Righteous Qi Alliance!”

After a moment of silence, the assassin revealed a name and then said, ”I’ve said all I can, kill me now, just promise not to harm my family.”

”Rest assured, I certainly won’t harm your family, because I am not as despicable as you! But your Five Poison Hall’s branch in Phoenix God Empire, that can be destroyed!”

Ling Xiao showed a cold smile.

”Why? We only take money to solve other’s problems, do you really want to offend the entire Dark Divine Temple?”

The assassin didn’t understand why Ling Xiao was doing this.

”It’s simple; I’m just seeking revenge, making all assassins in this world know that Ling Xiao and my people are untouchable.”

Ling Xiao smiled lightly, and then a point of cold light pierced the air, completely penetrating the assassin’s throat.

”Anyway, you’re dead, and what comes after is something you don’t have to worry about.”

Having killed the poisonous snake, Ling Xiao looked back at the young Martial Artist controlled by the Son of Light and Son of Shadow, and calmly asked, ”You’re not one of them, who exactly are you?”

The young man chose silence.

”I know him, he’s Fengming Heishan, the ninth son of Emperor Phoenix Immeasurable!”

Feng Yanran suddenly said.

”Son of the Emperor?”

Ling Xiao frowned and said, ”Fengming Heishan, did your father send you to kill me? Tell the truth, and I can spare you, otherwise, your fate will be the same as theirs.”
