“No, do not waste any more energy. You need to preserve your inner force to escape. You must not die, or I will feel even worse. I am going to join my sister now. Do not grieve.”
Situ Hongyan noticed tears flowing from the corners of Ling Xiao’s eyes. In that instant, she felt that even death would be worth it.
“I am not grieving. I am simply furious. How can there be such shameless people in the world, such a shameless sect?”
Ling Xiao suddenly turned his head, glaring ferociously at Seng Li and the others. He said word by word, “From the moment I gained understanding until now, I have encountered many detestable people, but you lot truly stand out among them. Framing me is one thing, since we are enemies after all.
But to frame an enemy, you go to great lengths to harm and kill your own sect’s outstanding disciples, and this is not the first time you have done such a thing.
I really want to cut open your hearts and see if they have all turned black.”
“Ling Xiao, though I would very much like you to avenge me and my sister, I know that would be too selfish. So I only hope you will take my body and bury me in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Thank you.”
Situ Hongyan’s voice had become extremely faint.
It was clear that she could not be saved.
“Rest assured, I will bury your body in a place you would like. But at the same time, I will avenge you. I, Ling Xiao, most enjoy killing shameless people. To me, that is an honour.”
Ling Xiao would no longer spare these people.
Because they had completely enraged him.
“Thank you.”
Situ Hongyan wanted to dissuade him, but the words reached her lips and she could not speak them. She only managed two simple words before passing away forever.
A beauty perished, gone like fragrance and jade.
Her body gradually grew cold. How tragic for such a lovely face.
“Leng Mei, take good care of Situ Hongyan’s body. These people, I will kill myself!”
At this moment, it was not about training, nor a fair duel. It was slaughter!
So Ling Xiao intended to use all the power available to him and kill every one of these people.
Situ Hongyan was a good girl. It was a pity she had joined the wrong sect. Her tragedy had been sealed from the day her sister was violated by Mo Shaoyou.
He had no deep connection with Situ Hongyan, merely a chance encounter, but he could not tolerate the Bibo Island sect. Simply put, he was disgusted!
Since the heavens would not punish such a sect,
Then he would do it!
He now had the ability!
“Kill!”
One could say he was enraged for a beauty’s sake!
Or one could say he simply could not stand Bibo Island!
Add to that the fact that Bibo Island had intended to deal with him anyway.
At this moment, all these factors combined gave Ling Xiao ample reason for slaughter!
Terrifying killing intent had turned into blood-red remnant clouds, piercing the sky and transforming the entire ruined temple into something akin to hell.
“Boy, shouting is useless. Right now, you only have Leng Mei to help you. Her Highness the Moon Maiden has been intercepted by our island master, and Princess Yunya is tied up with her own matters.
Hua Fuguang and Hua Lüeying have not even resolved their own troubles.
So do not expect anyone to come save you. Today, your fate will be the same as Situ Hongyan’s.”
Seng Li said coldly.
The corners of Ling Xiao’s mouth curved into a cold smile. He said lightly, “The master of your Bibo Island must have a death wish, daring to provoke Sister Moon Maiden. Impressive, impressive.”
Then he added, “Enough talk. Today, however many of you come, that is how many I will kill.
In any case, heartless and unrighteous scum like you, who cannot even uphold justice within your own sect, what meaning is there in your existence?”
What Ling Xiao hated most was this kind of unfair treatment.
He had suffered such treatment in the Ling family and in the Moonlight Sect.
That was why he despised unfairness to the bone.
Whether this attitude was right or wrong, he did not care. He only knew that his power was now sufficient to seek justice for himself in front of these people, and justice for Situ Hongyan as well.
“Master, lend me your power temporarily.”
Ling Xiao used his soul force to speak to Yuan Zun in the World of Mountains and Rivers.
“Are you sure you want to do this? You know the side effects. Lending you my power will inevitably cause serious damage to your body, and it will make your inner force impure and mixed!
Most importantly, and most troubling, it may cause your cultivation to drop. All your previous hard work will be for nothing. You had better think it through.”
Yuan Zun warned.
“No matter. I am thinking very clearly right now. I only want those bastards to all die!”
Ling Xiao was not afraid of the side effects.
Bodily injuries could heal!
Impure inner force could be refined anew!
Even if his cultivation fell, he could cultivate again!
But if he did not kill these scourges today, not only would his anger remain unquelled, but troubles would continue endlessly in the future.
“Very well. My power is yours!”
Yuan Zun agreed.
In that instant, Ling Xiao’s gaze became even colder and sharper, as if he had become another person.
But the terrifying killing intent and resolute expression in his eyes were proof enough that it was indeed him.
“Even without Sister Moon Maiden’s help, killing you is more than enough!”
Ling Xiao’s voice seemed to have completely lost any trace of emotion. Every word carried dense, terrifying killing intent that enveloped everyone from Bibo Island.
He rarely used Yuan Zun’s power willingly, not only because of the side effects but also because he feared becoming dependent on it.
But today, facing these people, he had to use it!
Feeling this incomparably cold and terrifying killing intent, sensing this powerful aura utterly mismatched with Ling Xiao’s cultivation,
Everyone from Bibo Island trembled violently in their hearts.
They knew Ling Xiao had several powerful allies.
The reason they dared to be so brazen against him today was because they knew no one except Leng Mei could arrive in time to help.
But at this moment, they suddenly realised they had been wrong.
Ling Xiao’s reliance seemed far more terrifying than they had imagined.
How could such immense power suddenly erupt from this fellow’s body?
They could not understand, and they had no time to think.
Because Ling Xiao had already moved.
Seng Li, Corpse Granny, and the others stood ready, prepared to withstand the most terrifying attack from Ling Xiao.
Yet in the next moment, Ling Xiao’s actions left them dumbfounded.
Ling Xiao went to Situ Hongyan’s side, pointed a finger at her forehead, and sent his aura inside. Situ Hongyan slowly opened her eyes.
“You cannot die! And there is no need to die!”
With Yuan Zun’s power, Ling Xiao’s medical skills had clearly become much stronger. Even so, this ability to bring someone back from the brink of death left the people of Bibo Island in disbelief.
“I am not dead?”
Situ Hongyan looked at Ling Xiao, feeling her body extremely weak, but she had indeed awakened.
“One could say you are half-dead, half-alive. I have locked your soul in the sea of souls, and forcibly extended your life by ten days.
But within those ten days, if we cannot find the medicine to prolong your life, I am afraid you really will die.”
Ling Xiao said with some helplessness.
