Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

”It’s my duty, please forgive me, young hero.”

The Guard Captain still refused to leave.

Ling Xiao’s face suddenly darkened: ”When I tell you to get lost, just get lost. Why are you so verbose? You really think I don’t know you’re not a man of the Wise and Virtuous King, but rather the Fourteenth Prince’s?”

”Ah!”

The Guard Captain clearly didn’t expect Ling Xiao had already seen through his identity.

But even if he was exposed, he still tried to put on an act: ”Young hero is joking. We have followed His Highness the Wise King for many years, how could we belong to the Fourteenth Prince?”

Ling Xiao sneered: ”As far as I know, the City Defense Camp’s Gutianba has always been a man of the Fourteenth Prince. How could his subordinates be so courteous to the Wise and Virtuous King’s men?”

”But just based on that, isn’t it a little hard to confirm? This is the Imperial Capital, being courteous to the Wise and Virtuous King’s people is quite normal.”

The Guard Captain was still stubbornly holding on.

”Then what about this Waist Token?”

Ling Xiao suddenly revealed a Waist Token, with the words ”War Proximity King” clearly inscribed on it.

The Fourteenth Prince, who is the War Proximity King, that is his title.

”Ah—!”

A gasp of surprise sounded once more, the Guard Captain was shocked: ”That Waist Token was clearly in my Storage Ring, how could it be!”

At this moment, he had nothing left to hide. Ling Xiao had found the item, there was no point in pretending anymore.

”Who told you, items in a Storage Ring can’t be stolen?”

Ling Xiao let out a cold laugh and suddenly flung the Waist Token, shooting it straight at the Guard Captain.

The Guard Captain hurriedly drew his weapon to block it, but was directly blown out of the tavern.

”Go back and tell your Fourteenth Prince, best not to play such tricks on me, or he’ll be playing with fire and burning himself alive. Don’t blame me for not warning him, get lost!”

His command to ”get lost” echoed loudly, like a thunderous roar.

To unrelated people, it might not seem like much, merely loud in volume.

But to the people of the Fourteenth Prince, it was like thunder striking, terrifying them to flee in panic.

”Humph, who would have thought the dignified Fourteenth Prince would play such a lowly trick, thinking he is at least a Nine-Star Prince and also the Flying Eagle God of Killing. Who would have thought he’d be so despicable and shameless!”

Lin Ruoxian, undoubtedly unaware that the Guard Captain was fake, was so shocked she couldn’t help but curse.

This tavern was not a place to hide one’s voice, and naturally, others saw what happened.

”Young lady, mind your words. If you dare gossip about the Fourteenth Prince behind his back, be careful your life might be at risk!”

A voice rang out.

A woman around the age of sixteen or seventeen came down from the loft. She was reasonably pretty and possessed considerable strength as well.

She looked at Lin Ruoxian coldly, her eyes filled with jealousy and malice.

”We are guests of His Highness the Wise King. Does the Fourteenth Prince dare treat us like this, and not even allow a single remark?”

Yue Shang couldn’t help but speak up.

”Yes, exactly, he doesn’t!”

The girl’s eyes flickered with a cold gleam, killing intent rising from her face: ”Except for the Sky King, anyone who doesn’t heed the Fourteenth Prince’s words must die!

You serve as an example...”

As she said this, she suddenly raised her hand, and a black snake dart flew through the air.

The whistling wind shot straight toward Yue Shang’s forehead.

This clearly intended to take Yue Shang’s life, the method was extremely vicious.

This action also indicated that she was in league with the Fourteenth Prince, War Proximity King, and didn’t even take the Wise King into account.

When Ling Xiao was observing the young girl, he had already detected her chilling killing intent, so he remained cautious all along.

Seeing her wrist tremble slightly, and without a word attempting murder, his heart surged with boundless killing intent.

He had seen such malice before, and the outcome for such a person was death!

He coldly raised his hand, a chopstick in his grip precisely caught the snake dart.

The snake dart wasn’t large, merely the size of an adult’s little finger, but it gleamed with a green light, clearly coated with deadly poison.

Such poison would likely cause significant harm even with a minor scratch.

”Young lady, isn’t your intention too malicious? They’re just speaking the truth. Even if they offended the Fourteenth Prince, it’s understandable, no need to kill, right?”

Ling Xiao’s voice carried an icy, murderous edge. He was truly a bit angry now.

He had just arrived at the Imperial Capital, and indeed did not want to cause a stir.

But who would have thought, just entering the city gate, he encountered agents of the Fourteenth Prince pretending to welcome him.

Their purpose was obvious.

Within the Guard Captain’s Storage Ring, there wasn’t just a Waist Token but also a secret order—”Lead Ling Xiao and others to a secluded place, if they refuse to submit, kill them!”

Just for this reason, Ling Xiao and this Fourteenth Prince could never reconcile.

He had seen through the opponent’s trickery and merely chased them away without resorting to killing, simply to avoid escalating matters.

After all, as a newcomer, he believed he should be low-key.

Yet suddenly, such a vicious madwoman appeared; he truly couldn’t suppress his anger any longer.

”Haven’t you heard that careless words can bring disaster? I don’t know what kind of bumpkins you are, but in the Imperial Capital, even if the Fourteenth Prince insults your mother, you must endure it without a hint of discontent.

Moreover, daring to curse the Fourteenth Prince, you must pay with blood!”

Saying this, the girl gazed coldly at Ling Xiao: ”Today I’ll teach you, in the Imperial Capital, there are rules!

If you can’t control your tongue, you must die!

You lowly, inferior people, even the air you exhale pollutes the Imperial Capital, let alone daring to defame His Highness the Prince, you deserve to die a thousand deaths!”

As she spoke, she circulated her inner strength with both hands, two snake darts pinched between her fingers, obviously targeting Ling Xiao: ”My snake darts are not for a lowly bumpkin like you to touch!”

Ling Xiao’s gaze grew colder.

He knew the identity of this woman was far from simple, and by common logic, he shouldn’t provoke her.

But he also knew, Ling Xiao never acted submissively!

When it’s time to act, even if the opponent is the Heavenly King Father, nothing could stop him.

”You keep calling others lowly, yet what do you amount to? The Fourteenth Prince’s lapdog?

Or perhaps his bed warmer?

Growing a pretty face, but doing things and speaking words as venomous as a viper.

Truly loathsome.”

Though the girl’s face was filled with violent anger, Ling Xiao acted as though he didn’t see it and continued to speak unhurriedly.

”You’re seeking death!”

The girl finally erupted in anger, her hands now brandishing ten snake darts, all aimed at Ling Xiao.

Chilling killing intent filled the tavern, terrifying onlookers to retreat hastily.

Watching a drama is also about keeping oneself safe, else you watch a drama and lose your life, that would be tragic.

Ling Xiao looked coldly at the incoming snake darts.

”I’m seeking death? With just a First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Eighth Layer Hell Mid Phase cultivation level, I really don’t know who gave you the courage to be so imperious!

Do you really think everyone under heaven is fish and meat for you to slaughter?”
