"I thought that the person that Shangguan Sheng was looking for would be such an extraordinary young man, but now it seems that he is just a boy from the Hunyuan realm." The old woman said sarcastically, with a bit of contempt and dissatisfaction in her voice.
.
"In the Empress's Palace, reaching the Hunyuan Realm before the age of twenty is only our most basic requirement. But you don't seem to have met this standard, which is really disappointing." Her words were like a cold wind, biting and cold.
When Ling Xiao heard this, a coldness flashed in his eyes. He did not refute, nor did he show any anger. He just asked lightly: "Where is Mr. Jiu?"
When the old woman heard Ling Xiao mentioning Jiu Lao, a hint of joking flashed in her eyes. She sneered and said, "Kill! That old man should have died a long time ago. He dares to be an enemy of our Empress Palace. He is simply asking for death."
"Oh!" Ling Xiao snorted, but his voice was filled with endless chill. As soon as he moved, the bloodthirsty sword soul appeared instantly, and a chilling aura filled the air. He held a long sword in his hand and slashed out with a flash of light.
Like a rainbow, it is unstoppable.
Faced with Ling Xiao's sudden attack, the seemingly arrogant old woman suddenly fell into extreme shock and despair. She was also a master of the first level of Wuhun Realm, and she could be considered a master in the Demon Suppressing Mansion.
His reputation is so resounding that no one dares to offend him easily.
However, the young man in front of her made her feel an unprecedented threat.
Ling Xiao's figure moved, and the bloodthirsty sword spirit in his hand instantly condensed into a sharp sword light, slashing towards the old woman with a destructive momentum.
The old woman only had time to open her mouth wide and widen her eyes, which were full of horror and disbelief. She seemed to have no idea that Ling Xiao would strike so decisively, let alone that this knife would be so terrifying.
Under the bombardment of the sword, the old woman didn't even have time to resist, before she was cut off by the sword, and her body was split in two from head to toe.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood. The old woman's eyes were full of unwillingness and despair. She never imagined that she would fall into the hands of such a young warrior.
In fact, Ling Xiao had already achieved a breakthrough after killing the third bishop of the Southern Territory Temple outside the secret realm of Heavenly Fire.
That life-and-death battle not only sharpened his will, but also made a qualitative leap in his cultivation. He jumped directly from the first level of the Hunyuan Realm to the sixth level of the Hunyuan Realm, rising five small realms in an instant.
Today's Ling Xiao is strong enough to crush most middle-level and low-level warriors of the Wuhun Realm. He can easily deal with warriors at the sixth level of the Wuhun Realm, not to mention that this old woman is only at the first level of the Wuhun Realm.
Therefore, when Ling Xiao took action, the old woman had no room for resistance and could only watch herself die.
"What do you think, where is the old man Jiu?" Ling Xiao's voice was as cold as frost. He put away the storage ring he just got from the old woman and glanced sharply at the two women, one black and one white.
They had just witnessed Ling Xiao's terrifying power in killing a strong man in the martial soul realm with one strike. Now facing Ling Xiao's questioning, both of them were filled with fear and awe.
"We...we know where Mr. Jiu is and can take you to see him." The woman in black, with a trembling voice, spoke first, trying to lighten the atmosphere.
The woman in white followed closely, nodding slightly in agreement. They understood that at this moment, any resistance and delay would be in vain. It was better to obey Ling Xiao and still have a chance of survival.
??????55.??????
"Okay, then you will lead the way." Ling Xiao's voice was still cold, but he didn't pursue it further, turned around and left the place with the two women. The two women led Ling Xiao carefully, for fear of accidentally offending this person.
Terrible young man.
Soon after, the three of them came to a dilapidated ancient temple. There were overgrown weeds around the ancient temple, and it had obviously been abandoned for a long time.
But Ling Xiao could feel an unusual aura from it, which belonged to Jiu Lao. He quickly walked into the ancient temple and saw Jiu Lao being tied to a stone pillar, with a pale face and tattered clothes.
, there are still traces of torture on his body.
Ling Xiao felt a pain in his heart when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to check on Jiu Lao's condition. He saw that Jiu Lao's Pipa bone had been penetrated, and the blood had dried up. The realm that had been restored to a lot was also destroyed again because of this heavy injury.
Ling Xiao could clearly feel that the weak vitality in Jiu Lao's body was gradually dissipating.
"Did you do this?" Ling Xiao's eyes were cold, and there was an unquestionable question in his tone. His eyes glanced back and forth at the black and white women, as if he could see through their inner fears and hesitations.
Facing Ling Xiao's questioning, the two girls turned pale and trembled in lips, as if they wanted to explain something. However, as soon as they opened their mouths to make a sound, Ling Xiao's knife had already been slashed out like lightning.
"I don't want to hear it anymore." Ling Xiao's voice was cold and decisive, his sword light cut through the air, and he went straight towards the two girls with fierce killing intent.
When the two girls saw this, there was a look of horror in their eyes, but before they could make any reaction, they were cut in half by Ling Xiao's sword light, and blood splattered all over the room.
After killing the two girls, Ling Xiao didn't stay too long. He walked to Jiu Lao and looked at Jiu Lao's old and frail face. He couldn't help but feel distressed in his heart. He took out a precious healing pill from his arms.
Carefully feed it into Jiulao's mouth.
"Senior, I'm late, I'm sorry." Ling Xiao's voice contained a hint of guilt and self-blame. He knew that he should have arrived earlier so that Jiu Lao would not suffer such torture.
Jiu Lao felt Ling Xiao's concern, and a look of relief flashed in his eyes. He wanted to say something, but his lips moved, but no sound came out.
Seeing this, Ling Xiao shook his head slightly and said: "Senior, there is no need to say anything. Just heal here. I will stay by your side until you recover."
Ling Xiao paused and continued: "Now I have left Tianxiahui just like you. You don't have to worry about getting me involved. Moreover, I have killed no less people in the Empress Palace than you, right? We all have something in common.
enemies, I will face them with you."
When Jiu Lao heard Ling Xiao's words, a firm light flashed in his eyes. He knew that he was not fighting alone, and that there were young people like Ling Xiao who were willing to fight alongside him. This made him feel extremely gratified and at ease.
.
At this time, Jiu Lao took a deep breath, stopped talking, closed his eyes, and began to absorb the power of the healing pill with all his strength. The healing pill that Ling Xiao gave him was not an ordinary thing, but one from the temple.
Obtained from the storage ring of the three bishops, the medicinal effect is extremely powerful.
Under the nourishment of the healing pill, Jiu Lao's originally pale face gradually regained its rosiness, and his spirit became much better. He could clearly feel that his damaged meridians were healing at an astonishing speed, giving him the long-lost sense of vitality.
