“Young Master, are you alright?”
Python Tian finally reacted and rushed over to support Python Xiao.
It was fortunate that it was Mo Shaoyou who died and not Python Xiao. Otherwise, he would have been held fully responsible. After all, this was the Black Wind Tower. If Python Xiao died here, he would definitely be the first to be held accountable.
“I’m fine.”
Python Xiao spat out a mouthful of saliva and touched the purple-glowing armour on his body, chuckling. “Thanks to this treasure. That kid’s attack only lightly injured me.”
His eyes fixed on Ling Xiao, but the previous domineering and evil aura was gone, replaced by vigilance and disbelief.
Just now, when he and Mo Shaoyou had joined forces against Ling Xiao, although the two had no intention of cooperating, their power had still converged.
In that instant, Ling Xiao had actually evaded both their attacks and struck them simultaneously.
Mo Shaoyou died. He had luckily survived.
Thinking back now, he still felt some lingering fear.
“Two flowers blooming in a greenhouse, ignorant of the height of the sky and the depth of the earth, forcibly acting as twin prodigies, shamelessly! Little do they know that the world is vast. If you take them out, they are just two piles of shit, useless trash!”
Ling Xiao looked indifferently at Python Xiao, the corners of his mouth curling into a cold smile as he said disdainfully, “I now somewhat understand why, despite your cultivation reaching the mature stage of the half-step Cave Heaven realm, you still dare not leave Sin City.
Because you are just a shrinking turtle. You dare not go out. If you did, you would not even know how you died.”
Python Xiao’s face looked extremely ugly.
But he did not know what to say to refute Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao’s strength had greatly exceeded his expectations. He had indeed never left Sin City. He had only heard Ling Xiao’s name from his father.
Only after truly witnessing Ling Xiao’s power today did he suddenly realise how important worldly experience is to a warrior’s growth.
“Is the Black Python family very powerful? The reason you have not been wiped out is merely the result of compromises between the major forces. Do you really think you are that great?”
With every sentence Ling Xiao spoke, he took a step forward. Although he had sheathed the Ghost Shadow Sword, he unreservedly released overwhelming sword intent.
Within the sword intent condensed the will of slaughter and destruction, making it utterly terrifying.
In that moment, in Python Xiao’s eyes, Ling Xiao was not a person, but the incarnation of slaughter and destruction, a demon god!
Such sharp sword intent could kill everything, destroy everything!
In the Profound World, many used swords, so there were numerous outstanding ones. However, those who could truly achieve complete control over their own sword intent like Ling Xiao were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
At the very least, Mo Shaoyou could not do it.
“This must be his true strength. In front of him, Mo Shaoyou could only bow his head!”
Hua Lüyin’s eyes sparkled with brilliance.
This was the man in her mind, the powerful and potential-filled man she pursued.
Facing Ling Xiao, the other warriors of the Black Python family all retreated in fear and trembling.
Earlier at the stall, those few had hoped Python Xiao would kill Ling Xiao.
But at this moment, their teeth chattered uncontrollably, and they could not even speak a complete sentence fluently.
Python Yuan even hid behind a group of guards.
He now finally understood that Ling Xiao had not lied. When Ling Xiao cut out his tongue, it was indeed showing mercy.
Otherwise, with Ling Xiao’s formidable strength, killing him would have been as easy as turning over a hand.
Python Xiao’s heart trembled.
Even Mo Shaoyou was no match for Ling Xiao. He knew he could not be Ling Xiao’s opponent either.
At this moment, Ling Xiao’s sharpness surpassed even the powerful Mo Shaoyou.
“Young Master need not fear. With me here, no one can harm you!”
Python Tian stepped in front of Python Xiao and said coldly to Ling Xiao, “You cut out my younger brother’s tongue, and now you have injured the Young Master. I can no longer tolerate you!”
“Make your move. If you are still alive when you approach me.”
Ling Xiao said indifferently.
“Hahahaha, no need to put on an act in front of me. Your strength is indeed very strong. Probably few below the Cave Heaven realm are your match. But I am a warrior of the third Cave Heaven realm. Do you think you have even the slightest chance of winning?”
Python Tian laughed loudly.
“You can try.”
Ling Xiao still wore an indifferent expression, showing no fear at all.
“Python Tian, this kid is strange. You be careful too.”
Python Xiao did not know how strong Ling Xiao was, but having already suffered a loss at Ling Xiao’s hands, he did not want Python Tian to suffer as well.
If even Python Tian died, no one would be able to protect him.
He did not want to die yet.
“Lord Python Tian, I advise you not to act. This is for your own good.”
Suddenly, Hua Lüyin walked out from the crowd, blocking Python Tian’s path, and said with a smile.
“Hua Lüyin? Since when have you been involved with this kid?”
Python Tian frowned. If it was just Hua Lüyin alone, he would not fear her. But the problem was that Hua Lüyin and Hua Fuguang were extremely close sisters. If he killed or injured Hua Lüyin today, Hua Fuguang would certainly not let him off.
“Just now. I suddenly fell for him.”
Hua Lüyin winked flirtatiously at Ling Xiao in front of everyone and said with a giggle.
“Hua Lüyin, this is no time for jokes. If you dare block me, I will have no choice but to kill you! After all, our Young Master’s life is the most important.”
Python Tian said in a sinister tone.
“Young lady, please step aside. I do not wish to implicate the innocent.”
Ling Xiao also looked at Hua Lüyin. Although he appreciated her kindness, he truly did not need help from others right now.
Hua Lüyin was about to say more when suddenly a figure darted out from behind Ling Xiao.
Fast!
Unimaginably fast!
The scent of plum blossoms lingered in the air!
In the next moment, Python Tian was stomped underfoot, and a sharp broken sword was held across his throat.
“How is this possible?”
Everyone was stunned.
The one who acted was naturally Leng Mei.
She knew Ling Xiao disliked owing favours, so as his bodyguard, she naturally had to intervene.
But this single move utterly shocked everyone present.
“That girl is actually so powerful. She is the true genius!”
“One move to defeat the third Cave Heaven realm Python Tian. This is indeed a ruthless character. Too terrifying.”
The crowd buzzed with discussion, their gazes almost entirely focused on Leng Mei.
Even Python Xiao sucked in a cold breath.
He dared not imagine what the outcome would have been if his attack earlier had targeted this woman instead of Ling Xiao.
“Well then, Young Master Python Xiao, I will give you a chance. Just the two of us, one-on-one. If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me.”
Ling Xiao looked at Python Xiao with a smile and said, “You can rest assured. Leng Mei will not interfere.”
Python Xiao gradually calmed down.
Today, it seemed this matter could not be resolved peacefully.
