Chapter 1147 Mysterious Powerhouse
Lingxi City City Lord’s Mansion.
There was an underground secret hall, the secret hall was entirely built of stone and earth, the surrounding stone walls were carved with various strangely shaped exotic beast statues, and there was a mysterious altar.
At this moment, Nan Muling and an old man with black hair entered this mysterious hall.
This black-haired old man was Nan Muling’s father, Nan Mu Jue, the City Lord of Lingxi City.
Walking before the altar, both of them stopped their steps.
Nan Mu Jue turned his head and spoke calmly: “Muling, are you prepared?”
“Father, I am prepared.” Nan Muling nodded, her face full of determination.
Nan Mu Jue also nodded calmly, his eyes gleaming with hopeful light: “If prepared, then activate the altar and awaken the sacred body.”
“Once the sacred body is successfully activated, you must immediately go to the Sacred Heaven Gate.” Nan Mu Jue instructed, this point was extremely important.
Nan Muling nodded solemnly.
“These years, the people of the Four Valleys have been suppressing us, constantly sending people to the secret realm to compete for resources, unfortunately, what they do not know is that this secret realm was only prepared for the descendants of our Nan family.”
Nan Mu Jue sighed faintly: “There is still half a month left, it is also time to make the people of the Four Valleys pay some price.”
“When you return to the Sacred Heaven Gate, in the near future, our Nan family will surely rise against the tide, at that time, the Four Valleys will no longer be a threat.”
Nan Muling nodded, without speaking, for this matter, they had paid too much.
“Go in, the rise and fall of the Nan family rests on you.” Nan Muling sighed lowly again.
“Daughter understands.” Nan Muling nodded, stepped onto the altar, a special key appeared in her hand, Nan Muling squeezed it, and on the altar, sacred light lit up, as if activating some mechanism, around it, beams of light shot towards the altar.
…
Three days later, in a region to the southeast, at nightfall.
A powerhouse dressed in a black robe easily avoided the Wen family’s defences and swept into the Wen family compound.
At this time, the Wen family head had just finished instructing an elder to go out and was standing alone in the pavilion courtyard, gazing at the horizon in the northwest direction, muttering to himself: “If Lin Xiao escapes to that region, it is extremely likely he will appear in that place, as soon as he appears, this merit will belong to our Wen family.”
As he spoke, a sharp cold glint flashed in his eyes: “Ruo’er, our Wen family does not have the strength to kill Lin Xiao, however, this grudge, our Wen family will certainly avenge, we will definitely make the Spirit Phoenix Valley exterminate Lin Xiao to accompany you in death!”
“Chi!”
Just as the Wen family head’s words fell, a black shadow suddenly appeared before him, so fast it seemed like teleportation.
“Who?” The Wen family head’s forehead veins jumped, a look of shock appearing on his face.
Not to mention that their Wen family had been on strict alert recently, even he, who had reached the second level of Martial Emperor realm, could hardly discern how this person had arrived.
This figure in black robe was undoubtedly an extremely powerful expert.
“Chi!”
The aura of the ninth level Martial Emperor emanated out, a terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the Wen family head, and only then did this black-robed old man take out a portrait, speaking concisely: “Where is he?”
“Ninth level Martial Emperor!” The Wen family head’s heart trembled fiercely, an extremely panicked expression appearing on his face.
Ninth level Martial Emperor, in this region, such a terrifying powerhouse had actually appeared.
Not to mention their Wen family, even the Shangguan family could not contend against such a powerhouse.
He truly could not fathom why such a powerhouse would appear in their small Wen family.
However, after looking at that portrait, the Wen family head immediately came to his senses.
This terrifying powerhouse was not here for him, but for the person in the portrait.
The person in that portrait was none other than Lin Xiao.
Gazing at this unfamiliar powerhouse’s face, although the Wen family head was puzzled and surprised in his heart, he did not dare to ask in the slightest, immediately answering tremblingly: “My lord, our Wen family is also looking for him, he is in the Shangguan family, he killed an elder of the Spirit Phoenix Valley, not only our Wen family, even the Shangguan family and the Ouyang family are looking for him, in a short while, probably the people of the Spirit Phoenix Valley will also come to search.”
After all, not knowing the intent of the other party coming to find Lin Xiao, the Wen family head carefully added: “Our Wen family is only acting on the orders of the Shangguan family.”
“Spirit Phoenix Valley?” Upon mentioning the Spirit Phoenix Valley, that ninth level Martial Emperor powerhouse’s brows furrowed slightly, he thought to himself: “The Spirit Phoenix Valley is merely numerous in people, if the master breaks through that major realm, what is the Spirit Phoenix Valley worth.”
“The master is still young, not yet fifty, even if he cannot break through successfully this time, after participating in the Spirit Controller Grand Competition, he will certainly be able to break through successfully.”
“If the people of the Spirit Phoenix Valley dare to snatch food from my hands, then I will send them on their way.”
Having made a decision in his heart, this ninth level Martial Emperor powerhouse said to the Wen family head: “Tell me everything about his recent matters, his escape location, all of it.”
The Wen family head nodded, immediately recounting quickly and without omission how Lin Xiao had fought for the Shangguan family, killed Ouyang Chen, and poisoned Xue Ling.
This kind of powerhouse, with a flick of a finger could kill him, with a flip of the palm could annihilate their entire Wen family, he dared not conceal the slightest bit.
After hearing the Wen family head’s words, the ninth level Martial Emperor said: “If you find him, dead or alive, contact me immediately, do not notify the Shangguan family people, do not notify the Spirit Phoenix Valley people, otherwise, your Wen family need not exist, do you understand?”
The Wen family head’s heart trembled, nodding repeatedly: “This subordinate understands!”
Originally, he had calculated that Lin Xiao was very likely to appear in Lingxi City, he had already given the order that once the people he sent out discovered Lin Xiao, one group would go to the Shangguan family to report, another group would go to the Spirit Phoenix Valley to report.
In this way, they would not offend the Shangguan family, and could obtain rewards from the Spirit Phoenix Valley, most importantly, it could completely avoid the situation where the Shangguan family concealed and did not report to the Spirit Phoenix Valley.
After all, Lin Xiao had killed Wen Ruo, their Wen family must make Lin Xiao die.
But now, they could only make other plans.
They could not report to the Shangguan family and the Spirit Phoenix Valley, only report to the powerhouse before them.
Otherwise, not only him, but everyone in their entire family would be annihilated in his hands.
As for the purpose of this ninth level Martial Emperor powerhouse, he dared not inquire, but since the other party mentioned regardless of life or death, it seemed he was not too friendly with Lin Xiao either.
“However, my lord, how are we to contact you?” The Wen family head cautiously inquired.
The ninth level Martial Emperor powerhouse took out two black pills and said: “Crush it, and I can swiftly go to the region of the person who crushed it.”
The Wen family head nodded hurriedly, tremblingly receiving the two pills.
“This matter, besides you, I do not want a second person to know, do you understand?” The ninth level Martial Emperor powerhouse said again.
“This subordinate understands!” The Wen family head nodded solemnly.
“Xiu!” This ninth level Martial Emperor powerhouse moved, as if turning into a residual shadow fusing with the night, instantly disappearing into the darkness.
At this moment, the Wen family head was drenched in sweat.
He immediately shouted: “Come person!”
Immediately after, a Martial Monarch powerhouse swept into the courtyard, neatly kneeling on one knee and cupping his hands: “What instructions does the family head have?”
“Quickly go call the Fifth Elder for me!” The Wen family head said with utmost solemnity.
“Yes!” That Martial Monarch quickly swept out.
In no time at all, an old man hurried over.
This person was none other than the Wen family’s Fifth Elder, who had just been instructed by the family head to go out, and now immediately called back, making him somewhat puzzled.
“Family head, what matter again?” The Fifth Elder asked.
“The plan has changed, instruct downward, once Lin Xiao is found, do not notify any outsiders, including the Shangguan family, including the Spirit Phoenix Valley.”
The Wen family head said with utmost solemnity: “You take this pill and go to Lingxi City, go notify that group of people, once Lin Xiao is discovered, immediately crush this pill, this concerns the life and death of the Wen family, do not ask me the reason.”
The Fifth Elder was somewhat puzzled, but seeing the family head so grave, and seeming as if frightened, he did not dare to ask more, immediately nodding and retreating.
