Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1453: Chapter 1456 Shameless Battle of Attrition

To outsiders, this still seemed like a corpse, but only Ling Xiao knew that the inside of the corpse had been completely destroyed by his sword Qi.

He not only wanted to seize the magical crystal of the Seventh Killing Star but also to completely destroy this guy’s body so that the opponent would not easily resurrect.

”Crack!”

Ling Xiao actually opened his mouth and bit into that magical crystal, eating it bite by bite.

”Is he trying to die? That magical crystal contains an extremely terrifying dark power!”

”Unless that guy is also a demon.”

”...”

The crowd fell silent, as they remembered the Seventh Killing Star’s dying exclamation.

Could this Ling Xiao really not be human at all but a frightening demon instead?

Crack!

Crack!

The sound of chewing on the magical crystal kept ringing out, filling the air with an eerie and oppressive atmosphere.

The martial artists of the Black Crow Empire were thoroughly enraged.

Ling Xiao was provoking them!

To actually eat the magical crystal of the Seventh Killing Star right in front of them was an intolerable affront!

”Mother, let me go and kill him.”

Jiumo Zhiyan shouted.

Seeing Ling Xiao kill the Seventh Killing Star reminded him of the time his master Timmerman Muto was slain.

His anger mounted once more.

”I will go!”

An icy voice filled with murderous intent sounded behind Jiumo Zhiyan.

”The Sixth Killing Star!”

The Sixth Killing Star, stronger than the Seventh Killing Star!

Even with the full awakening of the Heavenly Demon Bloodline, the Seventh Killing Star was still no match for the Sixth Killing Star.

The people of the Black Crow Empire knew this very well.

Most of the martial artists on the Divine Phoenix Continent knew this too.

Yet, few knew that the Sixth and Seventh Killing Stars were lovers.

The Sixth Killing Star was a woman who, though she always hid her face, was known by those familiar with her to be fond of the Seventh Killing Star. They had even shared moments of intimacy.

With Ling Xiao having killed the Seventh Killing Star, how could she stand idly by?

”Her Majesty the Queen, only I can kill that person. Although His Highness the Prince’s cultivation level has surged and is now not inferior to mine, you are aware of my relationship with the Seventh Killing Star.”

The Sixth Killing Star spoke slowly and methodically, presenting herself as someone extremely calm.

”This girl, I would rather not provoke; she’s troublesome.”

Zongyu Huangquan from the Penglai Fairy Island array frowned.

He had once wanted to possess this woman, only to suffer a secret loss.

Though the Sixth Killing Star was definitely not his match, she had a particularly bothersome ability that could result in unforeseen disadvantages.

The Sixth Killing Star also had Bloodline Power and had awakened it perfectly a long time ago.

She was from the Soul Clan, and her Martial Soul could flawlessly fuse with her bloodline, unleashing terrifyingly tremendous power.

Ji Huangtian also frowned, as there was indeed no enemy he would rather not encounter than this Sixth Killing Star.

Martial artists skilled in soul martial arts were always difficult and troublesome opponents.

”This time, Ling Xiao is truly doomed. Although the Sixth Killing Star’s superficial strength might not exceed the Seventh Killing Star by much, her soul power is enough to cast Ling Xiao into Hell!”

Jiumo Zhiyan glanced at the Sixth Killing Star and nodded, saying, ”Alright, you go; more fitting than me.”

He understood that even though his talent was greater, and by the time the Dragon Phoenix Trials arrived his strength would likely surpass the Sixth Killing Star’s, her soul power constantly made him uneasy.

”Yes, this king also approves!”

The Raven Queen nodded in agreement.

”Thank you!”

The Sixth Killing Star stepped out of the array, gazing coldly towards Ling Xiao.

”Is it Pupil Technique?”

Ling Xiao himself possessed the Tai Chi Eye, making him exceptionally sensitive to such secret techniques.

It seemed this Sixth Killing Star was a tactical martial artist, and dealing with her wouldn’t be too easy.

But if they thought that would make him obedient and frightened, it was still far too premature.

”The teleportation array should be almost set up; there’s no need to waste time with them.”

Ling Xiao understood that these so-called great forces were utterly shameless.

If one is not your match, they will certainly take turns joining the fray.

It’s not that Ling Xiao couldn’t claim invincibility; even if he were truly invincible, he would still exhaust himself against their relentless tactics.

Therefore, he wasn’t going to foolishly wait around to fight them; as long as he escaped into the primitive jungle, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to him with his abilities.

”The Black Crow Empire is truly shameless. Why don’t you all come at me at once? It would save me the trouble of dealing with you one by one.”

The words seemed like arrogant bluster, but in reality, they were steeped in sarcasm.

After the defeat of the Seventh Killing Star, they send out the Sixth; if the Sixth were defeated, would they send out the Fifth?

Would they continue until Ling Xiao was killed?

This approach truly left much to be desired.

”Are you scared?”

The Raven Queen sneered.

”Ha, you don’t need to provoke me. I’m not a fool. I could fight her, but you must make a promise in front of everyone.”

Ling Xiao smiled mildly.

”You have no qualification to bargain with this king.”

The Raven Queen scoffed.

”But what if the Island Master wants to bargain with you? Do you really intend to kill Ling Xiao with shameless turn-based tactics, as he suggested?”

Island Master Zhu Tianlin of Celestial Canopy Immortal Island stepped forward to say.

Although Zhu Tianlin usually kept a low profile, his strength was not inferior to any Island Master of the Five Immortal Islands.

Thus, his words carried significant weight, and whereas the Raven Queen could disregard what Ling Xiao said, she had to consider what Zhu Tianlin said.

”Since Island Master Zhu has spoken, then kid, tell me what promise you want me to make.”

The Raven Queen frowned and looked at Ling Xiao.

”It’s simple: if I defeat the Sixth Killing Star, you must not attack me again, or you shall turn into a turtle bastard!”

Ling Xiao pointed to the sky, smiling.

The Mysterious World was a place governed by laws, where vows were made cautiously. If one broke their word, punishment would indeed be forthcoming.

”That is impossible. This king can only promise not to attack you again on the Holy Dynasty Immortal Island.”

The Raven Queen shook her head.

”Fine, as you wish.”

Ling Xiao hadn’t expected the Black Crow Empire to let him off easily; he asked for such a condition merely as an exaggerated demand, waiting for them to haggle it down.

”You’ve done something pointless.”

The Sixth Killing Star approached Ling Xiao slowly, her pupils suddenly changing color from black to red, with strange patterns like those of a clover, but they were red clovers, which felt extremely dangerous.

”Oh?”

Ling Xiao smiled as he asked, ”How do you figure that?”

”Because you must die, so no matter what promise Her Majesty the Queen makes to you, the result will be the same.”

”That remains to be seen.”

Ling Xiao chuckled, as if there was nothing in the world that could trouble him.
