Ling Tian Sword God

”I’m afraid you’re right.”

Lan Xingling’s expression also turned serious. She had heard long ago that the Witch Fiend Sect had undead beings. Unlike the corpse refining techniques circulating in the Jianghu, these undead possessed their own independent consciousness but also could be injured and would never die.

It seemed that these people in white robes and black robes were the undead of the Witch Demon Sect.

”The undead fear fire. Using fire-based martial arts might effectively suppress them,”

Lan Xingling suggested.

Upon hearing this, Ling Chen’s eyes lit up. He suddenly channeled his True Qi, infusing it into the sword, and instantly, a layer of flames ignited on the Red Sky Sword.

With a swing of the Red Sky Sword, the sword qi condensed into four fire dragons in mid-air, interweaving with each other.

Those undead indeed appeared very apprehensive, quickly dodging away and keeping their distance.

But more figures stayed at a distance, encircling Ling Chen and the others without approaching.

However, seven or eight undead had already formed a formation, surrounding Ling Chen and Lan Xingling.

They stood in a very eerie pattern,

when suddenly, a flying puppet approached swiftly from behind, revealing Ling Hai and Ling Feng.

”Ling’er, Brother Wuchen, my brother and I are here to lend you a hand.”

Ling Hai said with a smile.

”Oh? Are you really so eager to help?”

Lan Xingling was a bit skeptical.

”Haha, Ling’er, no need to doubt. I already taught Ling Feng a lesson for yesterday’s incident. He now knows he was wrong and regrets it deeply.”

Ling Hai continued to smile.

Ling Chen also smiled, ”Yes, Ling Chen, I was wrong yesterday. I was too impulsive. Today, I’m here to apologize. I hope you can be forgiving and not hold it against me.”

”Do you really think you’re worth my attention?”

Ling Chen didn’t even look at him as he spoke indifferently.

Upon hearing this, the smile on Ling Feng’s face froze abruptly. He was about to explode in anger but was stopped by Ling Hai, who had a cold glint in his eye and shook his head, signaling Ling Feng not to act rashly.

Ling Feng held back his anger, sneering inwardly. This arrogant boy really deserved to die, but since he wouldn’t be jumping around for long, he decided to bear with it for now.

”If you truly want to help, then hold back the enemies on the left. Let me and Wuchen focus on breaking the formation.”

Lan Xingling said to Ling Hai and Ling Feng.

”Alright, rest assured. With the two of us here, we’ll guarantee the safety of your left flank.”

Ling Hai pledged confidently.

Still not believing the two would be so generous, Lan Xingling didn’t have the time to deal with them at this moment. He and Wuchen needed to break the formation in front of them. Only by breaking the formation could they leave this place.

With a quick movement, Ling Chen charged forward, holding the Red Sky Sword. The sword slashed rapidly, leaving black scorched marks on each undead.

”This kid does have some skills.”

Seeing Ling Chen almost breaking out of the formation, Ling Feng looked unhappy.

”Don’t worry, the undead of the Witch Fiend Sect are not limited to such capabilities. He won’t break out.”

Ling Hai seemed certain that Ling Chen wouldn’t be able to escape the encirclement, not showing any tension.

As expected, just as he predicted, although Ling Chen’s Red Sky Sword made the undead fear, it couldn’t completely kill them, only causing superficial injuries.

”This kid poses a significant threat; capture him first!”

The powerful undead members of the Witch Demon Sect seemed to sense the overwhelming threat from Ling Chen, marking him as their top elimination target.

”Use the witch poison sealing array.”

An elder, surrounded by death aura, spoke up.

Hearing this, the other powerful members of the Witch Fiend Sect quickly moved, surrounding Ling Chen in the center, forming hand seals. The True Qi they released appeared in a purple-black hue, sealing the void above Ling Chen.

Ling Chen felt the surrounding air freeze, as if the void solidified, sealed by this mass of purple-black cloud, leaving him with nowhere to escape.

This witch poison was highly corrosive, lifting green smoke into the air. Evidently, even the air was corroded by the poison, creating large areas of vacuum.

Channeling True Qi, Ling Chen formed a layer of True Qi protection outside his body to prevent further spread of the witch poison.

However, in the face of the intense witch poison, his protective True Qi proved ineffective. In the blink of an eye, it was completely corroded away, vanishing without a trace.

”Haha, this arrogant brat finally suffers.”

Seeing Ling Chen trapped, a look of schadenfreude appeared on Ling Feng’s face.

”Ling Feng, why are you still laughing? Hurry up and help!”

Lan Xingling, forming seals while summoning True Qi Water Dragon, scolded Ling Feng.

”Don’t worry, I’ll help now.”

Ling Feng and Ling Hai exchanged a glance, and then Ling Hai swiftly moved, speeding towards Ling Chen’s position.

”Brother Wuchen, I’m here to lend you a hand!”

Ling Feng shouted to Ling Chen.

Breaking away one undead blocking his path with a sword, Ling Feng reached a position not far behind Ling Chen.

At this moment, a strange smile curled on his lips. Suddenly, he drew several Poison Darts from his waist and shot them violently at Ling Chen’s back!

”Ling Feng, you!”

Seeing this, Lan Xingling was both shocked and angry. She had already suspected Ling Feng had ill intentions and felt a bad premonition. She hadn’t expected it to come true so soon. This treacherous bastard actually ambushed Ling Chen at this critical moment!

This person was truly insidious and vicious!

In an instant, the darts were dangerously close. Ling Chen, attacked from both sides, dodged most of the darts but still got hit by one Poison Dart.

Pffft!

Blood spurted as Ling Chen lost his balance and fell into the seawater.

”Hahaha, Wuchen, no matter how capable you are, you still died by my hand!”

Having succeeded in his scheme, Ling Feng laughed maniacally, finally avenging the humiliation he suffered from Ling Chen.

Anyone who opposed Ling Feng was doomed to die.

No matter how powerful Ling Chen was, he still died by his hands in the end.

He had smeared the unique poison of the Ling Family on the darts, and now that Ling Chen had fallen into the sea, with no one to save him, he was certain to die.

”Wuchen!”

Lan Xingling hurriedly withdrew her True Qi, intending to dive in to search for Ling Chen, but Ling Hai blocked her.

”Let it be, Ling’er. You have no ties with him; why be so attached? He’s already hit by Ling Feng’s poison dart and will surely die,” Ling Hai said coldly.

”Ling Hai, you!”

Lan Xingling’s beautiful eyes darkened, ”So you both planned to take down Wuchen here all along. You two despicable scoundrels!”

She finally understood. This pair of brothers were alike, having schemed long ago. She simply didn’t understand these two well enough, and her heart was filled with guilt. If she had realized sooner, Wuchen wouldn’t have fallen prey to them.
