Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1430: Chapter 1433 Narrow Encounter: Nan Xiong

The two completed the transaction happily. Ling Xiao smiled and said, ”Having obtained the Black Fire Lotus, you’d better leave soon. This place is no good, especially since you are members of the Ji family.”

After speaking, he turned and left.

”I didn’t expect this person to have such a candid nature.”

The middle-aged man surnamed Chen sighed.

”Uncle Chen, I know the Mysterious World is full of responsibilities and many villains, but since this person hinted to me to be careful of those guards, it shows he is not bad. That’s why I stopped you from acting just now.”

”Miss is right, I was too impulsive just now.”

The middle-aged man surnamed Chen said with a bitter smile.

”It’s more than that. This person’s strength is likely stronger than yours, Uncle Chen. If a fight breaks out, you’ll definitely suffer. There’s no need to offend such a powerful expert for nothing.”

Ji Mengmeng shook her head and said, ”Alright, Uncle Chen, let’s prepare to leave.”

”Wait!”

Just as Ji Mengmeng was about to leave, she suddenly discovered that Ling Xiao was surrounded by people.

It was her guards who surrounded Ling Xiao.

”That person is in danger.”

Ji Mengmeng said.

Although she knew Ling Xiao was very strong, she had over ten guards, including five Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists.

No matter how strong Ling Xiao was, two fists can’t fight four hands. How could he have any chance of winning against these people?

”Miss, it’s better not to meddle in such matters?”

The middle-aged man surnamed Chen frowned and said.

”Uncle Chen, don’t forget, that person has helped me twice. If he hadn’t agreed to trade the Black Fire Lotus, there would have been nothing we could do.”

Ji Mengmeng shook her head and said.

”Alright, whatever Miss says, we’ll do.”

The middle-aged man surnamed Chen was truly loyal to Ji Mengmeng.

Even though he didn’t have a good impression of Ling Xiao, he was still willing to help him for Ji Mengmeng’s sake.

”You few, don’t overstep. Even though you have support behind you and are Ji family members, never forget your identity. Ultimately, you are just family servants. If you really anger Miss, your masters could discard you like pawns at any time.”

The middle-aged man surnamed Chen approached and spoke to the guards.

”Chen, mind your own business. This kid killed our brother; he must die today.”

A Cave Heaven Realm expert among the guards snorted coldly: ”Don’t forget, we still have leverage over you. Do you really want to die?”

”It looks like you really plan to fight.”

The middle-aged man surnamed Chen took a deep breath. Even though he knew the risk, he had to obey Miss’s orders.

He drew a long knife from its sheath, its cold light flickering, filled with killing intent.

”Alright! Chen, you’ve got guts, everybody listen, that girl is...”

One of the Cave Heaven Realm guards shouted towards the crowd.

However, before the sentence was finished, his head was already gone.

The middle-aged man surnamed Chen and Ji Mengmeng were shocked as they witnessed the scene, finding it hard to accept.

Ling Xiao’s strength was truly beyond their expectations, as the guard killed was a Second Dongtian Realm Martial Artist.

To be killed in one strike.

While they were still in shock, Ling Xiao’s hands were not idle.

His figure flickered, and he moved like a life-taking ghost among the crowd.

In just moments, of the dozen or so guards, only one remained!

And this person was shielded by a powerful expert.

”Kid, even if they deserve to die, you should let them finish speaking before killing them. Why are you in such a hurry?”

The expert appeared to be in his thirties, with a dark birthmark on his face, looking ugly, yet his cultivation level was very strong.

Fourth Cave Sky Realm Martial Artist, definitely among the top in these ten thousand Martial Artists.

”Move aside!”

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

”Kid, don’t be ungrateful. I’m talking to you and treating you with respect. Don’t think you’re so great.”

The birthmark-faced man snorted coldly.

”I’ll say it again, move aside!”

Ling Xiao didn’t want to make enemies for no reason, but this person insisted on blocking him from killing the guard, for which he had no patience.

The guards wanted to kill him, so he naturally had to fight back; there was no two ways about it.

”Try acting today!”

The birthmark-faced man’s expression darkened.

”Ignorant!”

Ling Xiao glanced coldly at the birthmark-faced man. Standing in place, an outline of a shadow sword was already piercing the guard’s throat.

”I told you to move aside, and you didn’t listen. You can’t blame anyone but yourself for the disgrace.”

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

”You little punk, how dare you disrespect me, courting death!”

As a Fourth Cave Heaven Realm expert, Nan Xiong had never been so humiliated.

The ones he wanted to protect had never been killed by anyone.

Of course, that was because he never protected anyone he couldn’t protect.

But today, this kid in front of him killed the person he wanted to protect right before his eyes. It was a blow to his dignity.

”Master Nan, this kid is the one who killed Fifth Head at Ghost Villa the other day!”

A Martial Artist behind Nan Xiong recognized Ling Xiao.

”Is that so?”

”Absolutely, Tu Shan Ying and the Volcano Duo know it too.”

Nan Xiong looked towards the bald man and the elderly couple.

Volcano Duo hesitated briefly, then the old man laughed and said, ”We are getting on in age and have poor eyesight, so we didn’t see clearly, sorry.”

”Two cunning old fools.”

Nan Xiong cursed under his breath. He knew the pair knew the truth but just didn’t want to say it.

However, Tu Shan Ying was more cooperative, nodding and saying, ”Master Nan, it was indeed this kid who killed the Fifth Head of the Giant Whale Sect. I was there at the time, and he single-handedly seized a lot of Sword Intention Wandering Souls.”

He was extremely wary of Ling Xiao, but also very envious. Previously, because he was alone, he didn’t dare provoke Ling Xiao lightly.

But now it was different, now with Nan Xiong and a large group of Giant Whale Sect people backing him, plus his Fifth Cave Heaven Realm cultivation level, could he still fear this kid?

No sooner had Tu Shan Ying finished speaking, he felt a chill down his spine, a creepy sensation growing within him.

When he turned his head, he found Ling Xiao looking at him calmly, with killing intent in his eyes.

This truly made him feel a bit terrified inside.

But then he thought, with so many people here, what should he be afraid of?

”Kid, you’ve offended the Giant Whale Sect, you’re doomed, and you still dare look at me like that, are you seeking death?”

Tu Shan Ying shouted.

He felt a sense of false bravado; if he didn’t shout it out, he feared he would be so scared he’d tremble violently.

He needed to vent his emotions.

”Master Nan, just now I saw this kid doing something at the bottom of the lake, picking some items that seemed like black lotus flowers.”

Someone else suddenly spoke.

They were so focused on gaining a place to cultivate earlier, they didn’t think the lakebed held treasure, but thinking back, it seemed odd.

Although he didn’t know what it was, if he mentioned it, maybe someone else would know.

”Black Fire Lotus! You discovered Black Fire Lotus!”

Nan Xiong’s eyes were filled with increasing greed.
