Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1466: Chapter 1469: Enemies on a Narrow Path: Hundred Insect Demon King

”You’re not honest!”

After staring at Ling Xiao for a while, the woman suddenly said.

Ling Xiao’s expression remained unchanged as he smiled and said, ”Senior, you’re joking. How would I dare lie in front of you?”

”Enough, I’m not interested in playing word games with you now. You have two choices: die, or reveal all your secrets to me, then I’ll keep you as a pet.

Those outside who want to kill you absolutely cannot.”

The woman said with a light laugh, in a calm tone while speaking of something terrible.

Perhaps for her, killing someone and keeping a human as a pet were completely ordinary.

Ling Xiao noticed pained sounds continually coming from the cave behind the woman.

That should be a Martial Artist, of which race is unclear, but it’s definitely a Martial Artist.

”Haha, what if I don’t want to choose either?”

Ling Xiao chuckled as he spoke.

The other party was giving him a choice, indicating she wasn’t eager to kill him, there was definitely some apprehension.

”Do all humans like to dream this much?”

The woman sighed softly and suddenly flicked her hand, Ling Xiao immediately felt a tightness around his neck, as if something was coiled around him.

It turned out to be a snake!

A snake resembling a golden thread.

Very thin, yet extremely sturdy.

”This is my adorable Golden Thread Snake, which possesses a poison difficult even for a Half-step Yin Yang Realm Martial Artist to resist. I’m giving you time to consider, but if you leave my presence by more than a mile, the Golden Thread Snake will bite you to death, so you’d better take care.”

The woman laughed very proudly, also quite wickedly.

”Senior, we haven’t wronged each other before nor recently. Is this necessary? I’ve already agreed to give the Ancient Heavenly Demon and Ancient Golden Crow for free, yet you still want to kill me?”

Ling Xiao said bitterly.

”Because you’re dishonest, there’s a greater secret within your body, though I can’t yet fully comprehend what it is. But mark my words, I have the time to whittle away at you, and how long can you live?

A hundred years?

Two hundred years?

Haha.”

The woman laughed disparagingly.

”Aren’t you afraid that confining me might cause trouble for you?”

Ling Xiao suddenly asked.

”Trouble? What do you mean?”

The woman asked.

”Outside, there are six powerful Yin Yang Realm Martial Artists, some aiming to kill me, some to protect me, but all seem very invested in me. Think about it, what happens once they find out I’m here?”

Ling Xiao retorted.

”Nothing special.”

The woman laughed lightly: ”This is my kingdom, my world, my cave paradise. If they dare to enter, I can ensure they never return.”

She was evidently confident.

Ling Xiao surmised that this woman’s cultivation level must be at the fifth level of the Yin Yang Realm, at the very least.

Otherwise, she couldn’t be so confident.

After all, the Island Masters of the Five Immortal Islands were at the fourth level of the Yin Yang Realm.

While Ancestor Bing Feng, Zhou Yun, and the Raven Queen were at the third level of the Yin Yang Realm.

To defeat these people, one needs at least a fifth level of Yin Yang Realm cultivation.

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao couldn’t help but secretly smile bitterly, realizing that sometimes enemies can also save you.

He had already formulated a plan in his mind, using this woman’s complacency to lure those strong individuals here.

Then seizing the opportunity to slip away.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t stand a chance.

Unless the Moon Lady came.

But even the Moon Lady might not be a match for this person; he couldn’t let the Moon Lady risk her life.

”You’re certainly confident, Senior, I suppose I should think carefully.”

Ling Xiao intended to first stabilize the situation, then act when the time was right.

He believed those companions outside were frantically searching for traces of him in the jungle.

”You’re smart, don’t act foolishly. Go ahead, you can still move freely within a mile; don’t say I didn’t give you time to think.”

The woman waved her hand, indicating Ling Xiao should leave.

”Senior, are we considered acquaintances now? I still don’t know your identity.”

Ling Xiao suddenly asked.

”Do you want to know? I don’t mind telling you.”

The woman suddenly became solemn, as if reminiscing about the past: ”Tens of thousands of years ago, the True Demon Empire rose, and the True Demon Emperor swept through the Mysterious World, intimidating all under heaven. I was the Hundred Insect Demon King under his command!”

Hundred Insect Demon King!

Ling Xiao’s heart abruptly clenched.

In his mind, he thought he really had clashed with the True Demon Empire.

The Plague Demon King, Evil Beast Demon King, and Lightning Demon King all died because of him.

Either killed by him or by the Moon Lady.

And the Yin-Yang Demon King served as the Imperial Advisor in the Phoenix God Empire, aspiring to revive the True Demon Empire by utilizing it as a springboard to build a New True Demon Empire.

Ultimately, his ambitions were foiled by him and the Moon Lady.

Now, he unexpectedly encountered the Hundred Insect Demon King.

Furthermore, this Hundred Insect Demon King is the strongest of the Demon Kings he’s encountered.

Likely it awoke earlier and has been recuperating in this Primitive Jungle, rarely disturbed, thus recovering tremendously.

Rumor has it the Hundred Insect Demon King can control snakes, insects, and rodents, no wonder it claims this as its territory.

It’s likely that within a mile, all insects are under her control.

In this range, whatever Ling Xiao says or does cannot evade her surveillance.

This is too convenient.

”So, Senior is indeed the Hundred Insect Demon King of the True Demon Empire, no wonder you’re so formidable, I failed to see it, I’m sorry.”

Ling Xiao said respectfully.

”You say such words, but inside you’re probably cursing me, no matter, since I said I’d give you time, I won’t go back on my word, go on.”

The woman waved her hand.

Ling Xiao nodded and turned to leave.

For a Martial Artist, a mile of range is actually quite small.

However, Ling Xiao wasn’t worried.

He possessed advantages unknown to the Hundred Insect Demon King.

What is a Golden Thread Snake? It can kill him, yet it cannot simultaneously extinguish his Gemini Martial Spirit.

So, naturally, it’s of no concern.

His only worry was that once he crossed the mile boundary, other insects would report it to the Hundred Insect Demon King, then he’d still be unable to escape.

Given the situation, he might as well eliminate the Hundred Insect Demon King.

Of course, he can’t do it himself.

But he has many allies, doesn’t he?

Ling Xiao’s lips curled with a cold smile as he walked through the jungle for a while, then stepped onto a clearing and casually tossed out an Array Refining Stone.

”Concealment Array!”

This is a simple array formation, but very handy.

As long as you don’t move, it won’t release any aura; whatever you do is irrelevant.

Meanwhile.

”Three-leaf Demon Eye·Soul Capture!”

The moment Ling Xiao entered the concealment array, his right eye unleashed terrifying Demon Light, instantly entering the Soul Sea of the Golden Thread Snake.

The soul power of beasts is generally weak, and the Golden Thread Snake’s even weaker, so it was easily controlled by him.
