"Senior Situ, save me!"
The moment the words escaped Ling Fei's mouth, two sword lights arrived in front of them and transformed into two elderly men with white hair and beard. These two were Situ Bei's students, both in the late-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. One rescued Ling Fei while the other blocked Xiao Chen.
Ling Fei remained panicked even after being rescued. In the distance, Situ Bei said emotionlessly, "I told you, no one can hurt Hero Ling with me around."
Only then did Ling Fei feel more assured. Hiding behind the two elderly men, he sneered at Xiao Chen who had black Qi whirling around him. He said loudly, "See that? This Devil's Practice follower is finally revealing his true colors..."
Before he could finish however, he found himself hoisted in midair by his neck. Xiao Chen had unleashed his Immortal-override Steps, leaving behind a shadow as he went past the elderly men to stand in front of Ling Fei.
A bad premonition swiftly filled Xiao Chen's mind. He immediately stood up and ran to the door of the stone chamber, patting it with as much force as he could muster. "Men! Hey!" He shouted his voice hoarse, yet there was no response. He paced inside the stone chamber for a while before calming down and sitting down cross-legged on the wooden bed. He began attacking the seals that Perfected Immortal Guyang placed on him. Hours later, Xiao Chen's entire body was drenched with sweat. He finally managed to break Perfected Immortal Guyang's seals. He immediately crushed open the door with both palms. The collision was loud but the stone door didn't even shake. "Men! I want to see the Elders! I want to see the Elders!" Once again, no one came to check out all the screaming. Xiao Chen could sense several powers at work here, the kind that entrapped deities. He collapsed on the bed and fell asleep in a daze. A nightmare roused him the
Qingluan and Ziyun'er immediately pushed the door open and entered the room when they heard the commotion inside. Qingluan saluted Xiao Chen and said, "I noticed you were exhausted day after day, so... Please name your punishment, Master!" Xiao Chen rubbed his forehead. "Forget it." How could he rebuke them when they were doing it out of concern for him? "Go settle the bill for the room," he said. No matter what, he must return to the Human World today. "Yes, Master!" Once they settled the bill at the tavern, the group didn't linger around and walked out of the town. They immediately climbed onto their flying swords and headed for the Jade Qing Sect in the Qing Province. After flying at top speed, they finally arrived at the province in the late afternoon. Qing Province was filled with towering mountains that formed an endless range. Being back here again gave Xiao Chen a sense of amiable familiarity. No matter how flourishing
Qingluan and Ziyun'er noticed their Master's solemn expression but didn't think it was the right time to ask questions. Xiao Chen said, "Let's go!" He took out his flying sword and flew toward the main peak of the mountain. Lingtai Mountain comprised of numerous smaller mountains shrouded in clouds and mist. Out of its five main peaks, its main Black Dragon Peak was home to the Sect Leader and First Elder Yan Li. Star-picking Peak was home to Second Elder Xingzhen Zi, Moon-watch Peak to Third Elder Bai Ying, Pine Crane Peak to Fourth Elder Cang He, and Misty Peak to Fifth Elder Tian Yuanzi. The Outer Gate on Sunset Peak wasn't on any of the main peaks. Xiao Chen was somewhat absent-minded looking at the scenery below as he sped on his flying sword above the clouds, so much so that he nearly fell. The ruined halls, collapsed buildings, rocks that blocked the mountain path, and the large bloodstain on them... "Master!" Qingluan a
"The Ling Family, I'll let them live for another day..." Xiao Chen repeated these words monotonously as he looked at the sunset, and his eyes became colder. In the night, the wind was cold, and the silver moon hung high up in the sky. Bai Ying sat in the Moon-watch Pavilion alone as he gazed at the moon. A few empty wine jars were placed at his feet. "Live your life to the fullest as you can't stop it from ending for the dead remains dead..." Xiao Chen gently walked over. Bai Ying smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Brother had used to make me drink less. He said that a cultivator shouldn't be reeking of alcohol. Now he has gone and finally, no one is nagging in my ear... and that wooden-head disciple of mine, every time I yelled at him, he always keeps his head down and doesn't talk. Now, who am I going to swear at..." Xiao Chen silently entered the pavilion and cleaned up a few empty jars at her feet. He whispered, "It's my fau
"Bang! Bang!" With two loud bang, the surrounding trees trembled. The Qingluan and Ziyun'er were once again bashed up. Although they had the strength of the pre-Nascent Soul Realm, in front of this copper man, they were defenseless. "Be careful!" As the copper man was about to kill the two sisters, Xiao Chen used the Immortal-override Steps and blocked in front of them. "Ice Dragon!" Xiao Chen's two palms pushed, and in an instant, roars of dragon shook the sky, the temperature around them suddenly dropped. The things within the thirty feet together with the copper man were frozen right away. Through the layer of ice, Xiao Chen finally took a clear look at the copper man. His eyes were lifeless, and there was a "Gold" inscription on his forehead, between his eyebrows was a faint activity of talisman. It was a kind of puppet, but not a Corpse Puppet. It did not have that evil aura of a Corpse Puppet o
As the twelve people of the Hidden Fragrance Wafting Under the Moon received the order, they instantly transformed into twelve shadows and rushed into the crowd. Wherever they passed, dead bodies lied, there was no one alive. They had no feelings. They only executed orders and would not have mercy for anyone. In an instant, the entire manor of Ling Family filled with gloom. The twelve people were like Death. The moved so fast that the speed was beyond Xiao Chen's imagination. Every courtyard, every room, wherever they passed, no one lived. The air was filled with the smell of blood, Xiao Chen stood quietly in the wind, and his clothes flapped rapidly along with the wind. He closed his eyes and said, "Master, the murders that I have committed today, I will repent it another day..." At this moment, the Hidden Fragrance Wafting Under the Moon had entered the inner court. The outer courtyard was already empty. There were only corpses lying every
Out of the city, it was just plains and not a single mountain or river. Xiao Chen chased for hundreds of miles to the west. Under the twilight, Xiao Chen saw a big mountain appearing in front of him, and a black spot as well. It was Ling Ruoxu who was moving at the maximum speed on his sword. Coincidentally, the last time he and Luo Shangyan were being pursued by the Ling family, it was also when the twilight was bleak. The difference was that this time, he was the pursuer. "Old b*stard! Don't think of escaping!" Xiao Chen bellowed and pushed the sword flying technique to its limit. Ling Ruoxu noticed that he had caught up, so without thinking, he threw a few seal talisman directly to the back. Flames shot up to the sky, and there were endless loud booms. A large forest underneath was instantly destroyed. Xiao Chen avoided the seal talisman attack and sneered. "I, Xiao Chen, have been pursued every day since I entered the Viole
"Guifeng, kill them!" Slaughtering on the square of the Immortals' League, the envoys of the Immortals' League fled in terror. Wherever Guifeng pointed his blade at, the people were petrified. As Xiao Chen moved forward while recovering his True Energy at the same time, he shouted, "Hand over that old b*stard from the Ling family and I'll spare your life!" Ling Ruoxu was so scared that his face was entirely white. He feared that he would lose his last backing, he shouted in a hurry, "This devil has wiped out my family, Stewards, save me!" A steward saw the power of the General of Soul possessed and there was front is no match for him. At this moment, he was a little shaken. Someone next to him said, "Senior Brother! Warden and the elders will soon complete the formation and rush over. We shall not surrender to the Devil's Practice!" "Then you shall die!" As Xiao Chen shouted, Guifeng slashed with his blade, directly turned that
