“No!!!” He Lian Miao’s terrified and unwilling roar rang out. The Purple Corpse Puppet’s combat power was too strong, almost surpassing her by an entire level.
Previously shaken to light injury by Lin Xiao’s main spirit, and then subjected to the Purple Corpse Puppet’s attack, she had already activated her own main spirit, yet she still suffered very severe wounds.
As a result, not only did the Purple Corpse Puppet unleash that terrifying attack again, but Lin Xiao also directed spiritual power attack equivalent to her level, as well as vital energy attack even stronger than hers, all bombarding towards her.
Where could she have any chance of survival?
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
No matter how He Lian Miao forcibly activated her strongest defensive barrier enveloping her entire body, the three streams of power almost simultaneously bombed onto the defensive barrier. The defensive barrier instantly disintegrated. Five finger lights pierced through He Lian Miao’s body, the spiritual power manifested sword also shot through her chest, and that brilliant sword beam then split He Lian Miao’s body into two halves.
He Lian Miao died instantly, deader than dead.
Afterwards, Lin Xiao and the Purple Corpse Puppet charged towards the other seventh-grade primary Spirit Controller who was severely wounded in another place.
This seventh-grade primary Spirit Controller, when his body shaken flying by the Purple Corpse Puppet’s attack was about to stop, hurriedly swallowed a healing pill, forcibly circulating spiritual power to retreat outwards.
However, in merely the time for two strikes from Lin Xiao and the Purple Corpse Puppet, plus the while he had been shaken flying, he had not escaped even a few hundred metres. Lin Xiao and the Purple Corpse Puppet were already flying towards his direction.
Brilliant sword beams and five finger lights shot towards Huangfu He.
“Puff!”
Before even being struck by the two streams of power, Huangfu He had already spat out a mouthful of blood.
Under such severe wounds, it was already impressive that he could still fly; he was merely holding on by force.
Now with two more terrifying streams of power rushing in, he could not even execute a defence, and was struck by the two streams of power, perishing on the spot.
Seeing Huangfu He also killed, Lin Xiao’s heart finally completely relaxed.
Fortunately, these three seventh-grade primary Spirit Controllers did not, like Shangguan Xiong, possess escape trump cards or other means.
“Dead, all dead!” Ouyang Shu, who had been shaken flying by Lin Xiao’s first strike fluctuation, was like struck by a bolt from the blue, murmuring in disbelief from his mouth.
He had never imagined that Lin Xiao’s strength would be so powerful, only thinking that Lin Xiao possessed defensive martial skills and means to enhance speed, his combat power at most a bit stronger than Zou Yun.
Who would have anticipated it would be like this? Lin Xiao’s combat power and trump cards could thoroughly kill even the three seventh-grade primary Spirit Controllers from Ling Huang Valley within a few moves.
Such terrifying strength, even their family head would only have the share of being instantly killed.
Now it seemed, their family head might not have been killed by some treasure of Lin Xiao’s, but directly killed by Lin Xiao. Shangguan Xiong had been deceiving them.
“Not good, quick escape!” Suddenly coming back to his senses, Ouyang Shu’s heart filled with great alarm. He hurriedly turned around, flying outwards.
“You still want to run?” However, it was already too late. Lin Xiao flew towards him.
Immediately after, a surge of spiritual sense rushed into Ouyang Shu’s mind. Ouyang Shu’s head shook, his entire person instantly soul-controlled, stopping his figure.
“Tell me, how did you know my whereabouts?” In the void hundreds of zhang away, Lin Xiao interrogated Ouyang Shu.
“Trace Breath Pill, our Ouyang family’s Trace Breath Pill.” Ouyang Shu answered.
“Trace Breath Pill?” Lin Xiao was startled in his heart.
The Trace Breath Pill was similar to attack pills, defence pills, and speed pills, even rarer, mainly because the medicinal ingredients were more scarce.
He had not expected that the Ouyang family actually possessed such a pill.
As expected of a Spirit Controller family, possessing quite a few rare pills.
It was no wonder Shangguan Xiong also knew his whereabouts. Probably, the Shangguan family had also used a Trace Breath Pill.
“Alright, you can go die now!” Having learned the reason, Lin Xiao immediately ordered.
Although Ouyang Shu’s face was unsightly, he could not resist Lin Xiao’s command. With a stir of spiritual power, he twisted his own head, committing suicide.
With a stir of spiritual power, Lin Xiao controlled Ouyang Shu’s storage ring to fly over, taking it into his possession.
At this time, the entire scene, all energy had already dissipated. Large swathes of buildings were no longer there. The surrounding crowd, some had been shaken flying earlier, some had fled on their own.
Some people were still spectating from the city outskirts, some had already continued fleeing outwards.
In front of the City Lord’s Mansion, there were already no figures left, only Jing Yun Kui and the City Lord’s Mansion people remaining inside the City Lord’s Mansion.
Jing Yun Kui stood in the void, the others standing on the ground, like facing a great enemy, silent as cicadas in winter.
Lin Xiao first successively flew towards the corpses of the three from Ling Huang Valley, collecting the three’s storage rings first.
Then, following the Purple Corpse Puppet, he flew to a place not far from Jing Yun Kui.
“Brother Lin Xiao, truly a peerless genius, strength astonishing. Jing admits inferiority!” Before Lin Xiao could speak, Jing Yun Kui first politely said.
On the surface, it sounded relaxed, but in his heart, he was already gripping tight. If Lin Xiao acted against him, he would only have the path of death.
“Our City Lord’s Mansion has no entanglement whatsoever with brother and Ling Huang Valley. Brother has also seen that earlier, Jing merely did it to avoid trouble from Ling Huang Valley, just putting on a show. Moreover, previously already declared not to interfere in your affairs. I hope brother, with magnanimity, can spare us.” Jing Yun Kui lowered his head in a cupped fist salute, begging for mercy.
“City Lord Jing overstates it. Since City Lord Jing took a neutral stance earlier, naturally I have no reason to act against you.” Lin Xiao said in a calm tone.
Earlier, Jing Yun Kui had taken a neutral stance. Now, he also had no need to eradicate them utterly.
Indeed, as Jing Yun Kui said, Jing Yun Kui had not gone too far against him. Those earlier actions were merely to avoid trouble from Ling Huang Valley, just putting on a show.
Moreover, he also needed Jing Yun Kui to activate the teleportation array, so naturally he could not kill him.
“Thank you brother for your magnanimity!” Jing Yun Kui hurriedly saluted, long sighing in relief in his heart.
“However, you also know, having killed Ling Huang Valley’s elders, I need to quickly leave this place.” At this time, Lin Xiao spoke again.
Upon hearing this, Jing Yun Kui knew what Lin Xiao wanted and immediately said, “As compensation for the trouble brought to brother earlier, our City Lord’s Mansion is willing to activate the teleportation array for brother free of charge.”
“You are very smart.” Lin Xiao could not help but praise.
“The matter brooks no delay. Please follow me, brother.” Jing Yun Kui said.
Nodding, Lin Xiao withdrew the Purple Corpse Puppet, following Jing Yun Kui flying towards the central position in the City Lord’s Mansion, into the stone ground plaza surrounded by courtyards.
“This is the teleportation array?” Gazing at the various array pattern lines across the entire stone ground plaza, and the altar in the middle, Lin Xiao was slightly startled in his heart.
“Brother, please ascend the altar. However, there is one point I must remind brother of. Having killed three elders of Ling Huang Valley, even leaving via this teleportation array, Ling Huang Valley will continue to pursue and kill. Relatively speaking, entering this teleportation array to go north brings one even closer to Ling Huang Valley. I hope brother takes care.”
Jing Yun Kui’s words could be considered a sincere reminder. Leaving via the teleportation array could not escape Ling Huang Valley’s pursuit.
However, what Lin Xiao most urgently wanted to avoid was the master behind that ninth-rank Martial Emperor, so he would not mind so much.
“Thank you City Lord Jing for the reminder.” Lin Xiao said, “Right, what is the strength of Ling Huang Valley’s valley master?”
